Gateway Service

These services are provided by a gateway to endpoints. For example, gateways usually have distinct services for each speed they support (128 Kbps, 384 Kbps, 512 Kbps, and so on) and a service for audio-only calls.

Gateway services tell the CMA system how to route the call during conversion between IP and ISDN.

Note

Gateway and MCU services must be defined in both the CMA system and the MCU platform. They must be defined exactly the same in both locations. If you enter this information manually, be sure to type it exactly as it is entered in the MGC or RMX system.

You can simplify entry of services by making sure that the MCUs and gateways on your video conferencing network are set to register with the gatekeeper in the CMA system. This setting assures the information appears automatically in the List of Services page.

You must define a gateway service for each bit rate available. These services should appear automatically in the list when the gateway registers with the CMA system. If gateway services do not appear, you can enter them manually. If the List of Services page does not include gateway services, alternate routing and least-cost routing are disabled. For details, see the following table.
