Defining the Gateway Profile

Polycom RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 1500/2000/4000 Administrator’s Guide

A Gateway Profile is a conferencing entity, based on the Conference Profile assigned to it, that enables endpoints to dial-in and initiate Gateway Sessions. The system is shipped with a default Gateway Profile, named Default_GW_Session.

When an endpoint calls the Gateway Profile, a new Gateway Session is automatically created based on the Profile parameters, and the endpoint joins the gateway call which can also be a multipoint conference if more than two participants are connected to the conference.

The Gateway Profile defines the parameters of the gateway call that are taken from the Conference Profile assigned to it, such as line rate, resolution, the IVR Service to be used and

the dial-in numbers.

Up to 1000 Gateway Profiles, Entry Queues, IP Factories and Meeting Rooms can be defined in the RMX (they are all part of one repository whose size is 1000 entries).

To define a new Gateway Profile:

1In the RMX Management - Rarely Used pane, click Gateway Profiles .

2In the Gateway Profiles list pane, click the New Gateway Profile button. The New Gateway Profile dialog box opens.

Do not enable PSTN/ISDN access without defining the dial-in numbers range and/or the use of “Dial- In Numbers as Prefix Range”. If you enable the PSTN/ISDN access without the definition of the dialing parameters, people can dial in to the gateway from outside the organization and then make long distance calls at the 'host' expense.
