Table 2 RTP Media Portal tab configurable properties

Static RTP Ports

Type: Boolean

 

Range: true/false

 

Default: false

Activate IP Failover

Type: Boolean

 

Range: true/false

 

Default: true

Boolean indicating whether the RTP Media Portal should perform static fixed port allocation/management, or dynamic randomized port allocation/management.

Note: When this parameter is selected, the Blade's configuration parameter "Number Ports" is disregarded and all ports in the range from “Min Port Value” to “Max Port Value” are allocated for usage. All even-numbered ports in the specified range are used for RTP streams and the odd-numbered ports are used for RTCP streams.

Enables the RTP Media Portal Host CPU to monitor the status of the Private network Interface and react accordingly. This basic capability enables the system to maintain service availability in the wake of Private network failures. Whenever an RTP Media Portal Host CPU detects that it is having problems with its Private network interface, the Host switches to another available Private network interface.

Note: There are two tests associated with the activation of Host IP Failover: a carrier sense test and an optional network (ping) test. Upon activation of Host IP failover, the carrier sense test is automatically provided. Enabling of the optional network test is controlled by the “Activate IP Failover NW Test” configuration parameter. Enabling the optional network test will generate a periodic ping to the default gateway on the private network which was configured during installation and commissioning.
