Configuring H.323 gatekeeper settings
You can configure the Cisco TelePresence ISDN Gateway to use a gatekeeper, which can make it
easier for end-users to make calls using directory numbers rather than requiring them to know the IP
address or host name of the ISDN Gateway. You can register the ISDN Gateway with an external
gatekeeper or you can enable its own built-in gatekeeper.
To configure gatekeeper settings, go to Settings > H.323.

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
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.
