Configuring IP Settings

Specifying H.323 Settings

If your network uses a gatekeeper, the system can automatically register its H.323 name and extension. This allows others to call the system by entering the H.323 name or extension instead of the IP address.

To specify H.323 settings:

1Go to System > Admin Settings > Network > IP > H.323 Settings.

2Configure these settings on the H.323 Settings screen:

Configuring the System to Use a Gatekeeper

A gatekeeper is a “network administrator” that supervises network traffic and manages functions such as bandwidth control and admission control. The gatekeeper also handles address translation, which allows users to make calls using static aliases instead of IP addresses that may change each day.

To configure the system to use a gatekeeper:

1Go to System > Admin Settings > Network > IP > H.323 Settings.
