MCU administration

Summary information icon

Click the Summary information icon to display details about a conference that has been selected in the

web interface. This information can be copied to the clipboard for convenience; for example to inform

participants about conference details such as start time and instructions on how to view the conference

using streaming.

Enabling the MCU for H.239

Before you can include a content channel in a conference you need to enable the MCU to do so. Go to

Settings > H.239 and see the online help topic “Configuring H.239 settings”. For more information on the

H.239 content channel see Chapter 9‚ “Using data”.

Configuring endpoints

Configuring endpoints speeds up configuring conferences if the same endpoints are used repeatedly.

You can configure an H.323 endpoint on the MCU by going to Endpoints and then selecting the type of

endpoint to add. Then to add endpoints to a conference, you just select its name from a list.

See the online help topic “Displaying endpoint list” and the online help topic for adding the type of endpoint

you are added, for example “Adding an H.323 endpoint”.

Setting up a H.323 gateway

The MCU has a gateway function which allows you to define the IP address of a gateway: for example you

could set up a gateway definition called Record my conference and this would specify the IP address of an IP

VCR. When you then call out from the MCU you can choose to use this pre-configured gateway definition

and the call will be directed to the specified IP address. In this case the IP VCR acts as a gateway.

(You can also call an IP address and number where the number is understood by the gateway unit you are

dialing. See the explanation in “Video conferencing with a gateway” on page 22.

Reasons why you may want to use these gateway definitions include:

 To create a direct link to another unit without requiring a gatekeeper

 To cascade MCUs in a conference without a gatekeeper - see the next section

 To save typing in the IP address each time

Go to

Gateways > Add H.323 gateway. See the online help topic “Adding and updating gateways”.
