Gateway configuration task list

This chapter describes the configuration of the H.323 gateway. Some parameters can be configured in the gate- way configuration mode and may be overwritten in another configuration mode, For example, in the H.323 CS interface. For example, the default VoIP profile to be used with the gateway is configured in the gateway configuration mode. However it can be overwritten by another VoIP profile specified in the H.323 CS inter- face. All possible configurations, which are involved in a specific configuration topic are described in the respective configuration task.

•Configure datapath related settings

•Binding the gateway to an IP interface

•Enable the Gateway

•Configure Registration Authentication Service (RAS) (Optional)

•Configure H.235 Security (Optional)

•Advanced configuration options (Optional)

Binding the gateway to an IP interface

Binding the gateway to one of the available IP interfaces is required to allow the gateway to determine the local IP address it should use. The gateway needs to know the local IP address For example, when it needs to tell the remote gateway in the call-signaling to which IP address the remote gateway should send the media streams (RTP data). The gateway always uses the IP address of the interface to which it is bound, when a local IP address is required. The following procedure describes how to bind the gateway to a local IP interface.
