Edit Device Dialog

The Edit Device dialog lets you change a device’s class of service settings, add aliases, and edit or delete added aliases. You can’t edit or delete aliases with which the device registered.

The following table describes the parts of the dialog.

Field

Description

 

 

Device type

The device’s signaling protocol (H.323 or SIP).

 

 

Signaling address

For an H.323 device, the H.225 call signaling address and port of the device. Either

 

this or the RAS address is required.

 

 

RAS address

For an H.323 device, the RAS (Registration, Admission and Status) channel address

 

and port of the device.

 

 

Aliases

For an H.323 device, lists the device’s aliases. When you’re adding a device, this list

 

is empty. The Add button lets you add an alias.

Device authentication

Indicates whether the endpoint must authenticate itself.

 

Note: Inbound authentication for the device type must be enabled at the system

 

level (see Device Authentication), or the setting for the device has no effect.

 

 

Class of service

Select to modify the class of service and the bit rate limits for calls to and from this

 

device.

 

A call between two devices receives the higher class of service of the two.

 

Note: The class of service of the device applies to point to point calls. VMR calls use

 

the class of service of the conference room.

 

 

Maximum bit rate (kbps)

The maximum bit rate for calls to and from this device.

 

 

Minimum downspeed bit

The minimum bit rate to which calls from this device can be downspeeded to

rate (kbps)

manage bandwidth. If this minimum isn’t available, the call is dropped.

 

 

Forward if no answer

If the device doesn’t answer, forward calls to the specified alias.

 

Registered endpoints can activate this feature by dialing the vertical service code

 

(VSC) for it (default is *73) followed by the alias. They can deactivate it by dialing the

 

VSC alone.
