Description

 

 

Gatekeeper

The gatekeeper identifier (ASCII-only) on the network,

Identifier

which is used by the endpoints and CMA system for

 

communication.

 

The maximum number of characters is 254. All ASCII

 

characters are valid.

The description (AS.CII only) of this gatekeeper on the

Description

network.

 

 

Default Gatekeeper

When enabled, indicates that this CMA system is the

 

default gatekeeper on the network.

 

 

Allow Registration

Defines for the gatekeeper of which endpoints to allow

of

to register. For more information, see “Device

 

Registration” on page 396.

 

 

Registration

The number of days that the CMA system gatekeeper

Refresh (seconds)

maintains the endpoint registration information, in case

 

the endpoint has not yet received any.

 

The default is 30 days.

 

Enter 999 to prevent endpoint registrations from

 

expiring automatically.

 

 

Registration

The interval at which the CMA system sends

Refresh (seconds)

“keep-alive” messages to registered endpoints to

 

determine whether they are online. The default is 300

 

seconds.

 

If the endpoint responds with a registration request

 

message, the endpoint is online. If not, the endpoint is

 

offline.

 

When the endpoint is registered to another gatekeeper,

 

the CMA system still shows the endpoint’s status.

 

To view the endpoint’s state (Online or Offline), go to

 

Endpoint> Monitor View.

 

Note

 

Endpoints are Offline when they have been turned off

 

or have been removed from the network. Endpoints

 

return to an Online state when they have been turned

 

on or have re-registered with CMA system.

 

 

Maximum Neighbor

Limits the number of connections to make when an

Gatekeeper Hop

endpoint seeks dialing resolution. The default is 3.
