Call Server Configuration

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Field

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

SIP max breadth

The maximum number of concurrent parallel branches due to forking of a

 

 

request.

 

 

 

 

 

H.323 Settings

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Gatekeeper call mode

Direct call mode — The Call Server processes only H.225.0 RAS call control

 

 

messages. The endpoints exchange other call signaling and media control

 

 

messages directly, bypassing the gatekeeper.

 

 

Routed call mode — The Call Server proxies all H.323 signaling messages.

 

 

 

 

 

Accept H.323 neighbor requests

If this option is selected, the Call Server accepts H.323 location requests

 

only from specified external

(LRQs) only from gatekeepers configured on the External Gatekeeper page

 

gatekeepers

(see External Gatekeeper on page 101).

 

 

 

 

 

Resolve H.323 Email-ID dial

If this option is selected, the Call Server resolves email ID dial strings to

 

strings to other registered H.323

another local alias by using the user part of the email address. For example,

 

aliases

the dial string 1234@mycompany.com would resolve to the endpoint

 

 

registered as 1234.

 

 

Automatically assign enterprise

If this option is selected and the system is integrated with Active Directory, an

 

users’ email addresses as H.323

endpoint associated with an enterprise user is assigned the user’s email

 

email IDs

address (if that address hasn’t already been explicitly assigned to another

 

 

endpoint).

 

 

 

 

 

Location request hop count

The initial hop count the Call Server uses when it sends LRQs to neighbored

 

 

gatekeepers.

 

 

 

 

 

Location request timeout

The number of seconds to wait for a response from a neighbored gatekeeper.

 

(seconds)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

IRQ sending interval (seconds)

The interval at which the system sends IRQ messages to H.323 endpoints in

 

 

a call, requesting QoS (quality of service) reports.

 

 

Must be in the range 10-600.

 

 

 

 

 

Terminate calls based on failed

If this option is selected, the Call Server terminates a call if it sends an IRQ

 

responses to IRQs

(Information Request) to an endpoint that signaled support for IRQs, and the

 

 

endpoint either fails to respond or responds with an IRR (Information Request

 

 

Response) containing an invalidCall field. This is the correct behavior

 

 

according to the H.323 ITU Specification, and it prevents a call license from

 

 

being used unnecessarily for a call that’s no longer active.

 

 

Some endpoints (VVX prior to v.4.0.1; Sony PCS1, XG80, and G70; and

 

 

possibly others) signal support for IRQs but don’t properly handle IRQ/IRR

 

 

messaging, causing active calls to be disconnected if this option is selected.

 

 

To avoid this problem with such endpoints, leave this option off.

 

 

Note: This setting has no effect on calls from endpoints that don’t signal

 

 

support for IRQs.
