The table below explains the detailed meanings of these parameters.
Configuration Description of New Participants – General
Parameter Description
Name Enter a name to identify the participant.
IP
Address/Routing
Address
If the network type is set to H.323, enter the IP address for the
participant's endpoint.
If the network type is set to SIP, enter the routing address for
the participant's endpoint.
This item is optional if an H.323 alias or SIP address is set in
the "Alias"/"SIP address" check box below.
Type
Select the network communication protocol used when the
participant's endpoint dials in to the conference: H.323 or SIP.
The option in the "Alias"/"SIP Address" check box will change
along with the network type selected here.
Alias/SIP Address
If the network type is set to H.323, select the alias type of H.323
or E.164 in the right drop-down list, and then enter the related
alias.
If the network type is set to SIP, select the SIP address type in
the right list, and then enter the related address.
This item is optional if the IP address of the endpoint is set.
Cascading
If the device is a standard endpoint, select No Cascade.
If the device will be a cascaded link to another MCU, set the
master/slave relationship of the RMX relative to the participant:
If the RMX is the master, select Master, otherwise select Slave.
In the cascading mode, you need to set the following three
items: Dialing Direction, Extension and DTMF.
Dialing Direction
Select the dialing direction:
• Dial-in: The participant's device dials in the conference at the
local RMX. It is unnecessary to set the items Extension and
DTMF if this option is selected.
• Dial-out: The local RMX dials out to the participant’s device.
Note:
the Dialing Direction option is available only if the
Cascading option has been set to Master or Slave.
Extension
Use this field in case the user would like to send an extension
field to the remote end.
Password
Enter a DTMF code that will be sent upon connection to the
remote end.
Audio Only
If this option is selected, the participant will be defined as an
audio participant, and the system does not support video input
and output capabilities.
To add a participant who can communicate only through Polycom VBP (previously
known as V2IU), you need to enter the IP address of V2IU in IP Address and the E.164
number of endpoint in Extension. Only in this way can the system successfully call this
participant.
