TANDBERG Border Controller User Manual

3.1.2 Root Account

The Border Controller provides a root account with the same password as the admin account. This account should not be used in normal operation, and in particular system configuration should not be conducted using this account: use the admin account instead.

3.2Registration

Before an endpoint can use the Border Controller it must first register with it. There are two ways an endpoint can register:

•Automatically.

•Manually by specifying the IP address of the Border Controller.

You can disable automatic registration on the Border Controller. See auto discovery in section 11.2 for more information.

When registering, the endpoint registers with one or more of the following:

•One or more H.323 IDs.

•One or more E.164 aliases.

Users of other registered endpoints can then call the endpoint by using either the H.323 ID, a URI, an E.164 alias, or one of the services.

You should choose H.323 aliases which do not reveal sensitive information. Like e-mail addresses, they are passed unencrypted when a call is made.

Consult the endpoint documentation for information on how to configure it with a Gatekeeper.

NOTE Only traversal enabled endpoints can register with a TANDBERG Border Controller. All other registration requests will be rejected. Traversal enabled endpoints include all TANDBERG Expressway endpoints and third party endpoints which support the ITU H.460.18 and H.460.19 standards.

NOTE When URI dialing is used to discover an endpoint, the URI used is based on either the H.323 ID or the E.164 alias that the endpoint registered with. The local domain is then added to this. See section 6

3.3Neighbor Gatekeepers

As you start deploying more than one Gatekeeper or Border Controller, it is useful to neighbor the systems together so that they can exchange information about registered endpoints. Each Gatekeeper or Border Controller forms an H.323 zone and is responsible for the endpoints within that zone.

The simplest approach is to assign each endpoint a unique alias and divide the endpoint registrations between the Gatekeepers and Border Controllers. Each Gatekeeper or Border Controller is then configured with the addresses of all other Gatekeepers and Border Controllers. When a system receives a call for an endpoint which is not registered with, it will send out a
