Configuring Gatekeeper Settings

You can configure the ISDN gateway to use a gatekeeper, which can make it easier for end-users to join conferences

using directory numbers rather than requiring them to know the IP address or host name of the ISDN gateway.

To configure gatekeeper settings, go to Home > Settings > Gatekeeper.

● Gatekeeper Settings

● Gatekeeper Status

Gatekeeper Settings

Refer to this table for assistance configuring the gatekeeper settings. After making any configuration changes, click

Apply Changes.

Field Field Description Usage Tips

H.323

gatekeeper

usage

Enables the ISDN gateway to use an H.323

gatekeeper for registration of numeric identifiers

for its conferences.

Choose from:

● Disabled: the gatekeeper is not

consulted when determining where to

direct a call. No gatekeeper

registrations will be attempted (and

existing registrations will be torn

down), regardless of other gatekeeper

or per-conference settings.

● Enabled: the gatekeeper is consulted

to see if it knows where to direct a

call. The ISDN gateway will attempt to

make registrations with the

gatekeeper, and the gatekeeper will be

contacted for incoming and outgoing

calls. If the gatekeeper does not

respond, calls are still connected if

possible.

● Required: the gatekeeper is consulted

to determine where to direct a call. If

that fails, the call will not be allowed.

H.323

gatekeeper

address

Identifies the network address of the gatekeeper

to which ISDN gateway registrations should be

made.

This can be specified either as a host name or as

an IP address.

This field will have no effect if H.323 Gatekeeper

usage (see above) is set to Disabled.

Ethernet port

association

Whether a call involves consultation with the

configured gatekeeper also depends on the Port

A and Port B settings. If you intend for the

gatekeeper to be used, the port over which that

connection will be made, must be selected here.

For all incoming calls, and outgoing calls dialed

by address rather than by E.164 phone number,

the gatekeeper will only be used to validate the

connection if the network port over which the

connection is made is selected here.

NOTE: Port B cannot be enabled on the

Codian ISDN gateway

H.323 ID

Specify an identifier that the ISDN gateway uses

to register itself with the gatekeeper. You can

specify a name or number.

If you are using a gatekeeper, you must enter a

registration ID. Before the ISDN gateway can

gatekeeper, it must make a unit-wide

registration.
