Gatekeepers that the system can use if the primary gatekeeper is not available.

Points to note about PathNavigator’s Conference on Demand feature:

If your organization uses Polycom’s PathNavigator, you can use PathNavigator’s

Conference on Demand feature to place multipoint calls with up to 10 sites.

In order to place calls using PathNavigator, you need to:

•Register your VSX system with PathNavigator.

•Configure your VSX system to use PathNavigator for multipoint calls (see Configuring the System to Use a Gatekeeper on page 3-7).

•Create a multi-site entry in the directory.

When using PathNavigator’s Conference on Demand:

•Once the call begins, users cannot add another site to the call — even if the site was in the call originally.

•The MGC™ needs to have enough ports available to complete the call. If it does not, the call disconnects.
