Configuration
The Gateway SIM facilitates communication between Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Servers and
Cisco Unified MeetingPlace applications such as the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace SMTP E-Mail
Gateway. The Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Gateway SIM improves the reliability and serviceability of
your SMTP E-Mail Gateway by:
Detecting gateway outages and logging these errors to the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Alarm Table.
Enabling a Cisco technical support representative to administer and diagnose your SMTP E-Mail
Gateway remotely.
The Gateway SIM runs as a service and sends updates to the Gateway SIM Manager on the Cisco Unified
MeetingPlace Audio Server. If the Gateway SIM Manager fails to receive these updates when expected,
an alarm is logged in the Alarm Table.
To change parameters in Gateway SIM, do the following procedure.
Web Hostname The hostname of the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace web server that
you want the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace SMTP E-Mail Gateway
to use. This is required to allow the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace
SMTP E-Mail Gateway to include a meeting link in the e-mail
notification that is sent to participants who are inside the firewall.
Use SSL—Allows the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace SMTP
E-Mail Gateway to use Secured Socket Layer (SSL) format to
encrypt the link for the meeting that the Cisco Unified
MeetingPlace SMTP E-Mail Gateway places in the notification.
External Web Hostname The Web hostname used by the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio
Server that is placed outside of the firewall. This is required to allow
the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace SMTP E-Mail Gateway to include
a meeting link in the e-mail notification that is sent to participants
who are beyond the firewall.
Use SSL—Allows the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace SMTP
E-Mail Gateway to use Secured Socket Layer (SSL) format to

Unified MeetingPlace SMTP E-Mail Gateway sends to meeting
participants who are outside the company firewall.
