Chapter 3 - Configuring Network Use

 

 

Setting

Description

 

 

Outbound Call

If your system uses a gatekeeper, you can specify whether

Route

outbound ISDN calls are routed through an IP-to-ISDN gateway or

 

through an ISDN line directly connected to the V500 system.

 

 

Gatekeeper IP

If you chose to use an automatically selected gatekeeper, this field

Address

automatically displays the gatekeeper’s IP address.

 

If you chose to specify a gatekeeper, enter the IP address of the

 

gatekeeper here.

 

 

Alternate

If your H.323 network infrastructure has been configured to use an

Gatekeeper

alternate gatekeeper when the primary gatekeeper is not

 

available, the alternate gatekeeper is displayed in this field.

 

Alternate gatekeeper support is configured on the primary

 

gatekeeper, and the V500 is notified of this configuration when it

 

registers to the gatekeeper on startup.
