Gatekeeper
Use the Gatekeeper screen to establish connections with your
network’s H.323 gatekeeper.
Registering with a gatekeeper lets you make calls using gateways
and some Multi-point Conferencing Units (MCUs).
The Gatekeeper screen provides the following options:
Off Makes no gatekeeper connection. Use this option when
no gatekeeper is present on the network.
Specify Lets you manually enter the Gatekeeper address in the
Gatekeeper IP Address field. Use this option when you
have more than one gatekeeper on your network.
Auto ViaVideo searches for a gatekeeper on your network, and
connects to the first gatekeeper it finds. Use this option if
you have only one gatekeeper on your network.
If you select Auto and ViaVideo is not able to find a
gatekeeper, be sure that you have a gatekeeper, and that
it is correctly configured.
