Using a gatekeeper
58
Service and dial plan prefixes
Service prefixes (MCU and IP VCR) and dial plan prefixes (ISDN Gateway) have the same purpose. They
enable you to specify a prefix which is registered with the gatekeeper. Any calls to numbers beginning with
that prefix are routed to the Codian unit. See the online help topic “Displaying gatekeeper settings” (MCU
and IP VCR) or “Making calls to the ISDN gateway” (ISDN gateway).
Point-to-point call prefixes (IP VCR)
If you want to use a point-to-point call on an IP VCR you must specify an incoming prefix for these calls.
See the online help topic “Displaying gatekeeper settings”. The outgoing prefix is optional. When making
point-to-point calls through the IP VCR, the incoming prefix is stripped from the dialed number and the
outgoing prefix added (if it exists) before the outgoing part of the call is attempted.
MCU Registrations, Prefixes and Conference IDs
This section explains the way the MCU behaves in the areas of conference gatekeeper registrations,
conference IDs, and the connection of incoming calls to conferences based on called party number,
including how it is affected by the Prefix for MCU registrations and the MCU Service Prefix fields
in the Gatekeeper Settings page.
Conference Creation
This section provides the resulting conference ID, gatekeeper registration, and SIP registration depending
on the way a conference is created.
In the following:
SP: the MCU Service Prefix
LP: the locally applied Prefix for MCU registrations
For scheduled conferences created via the web interface:
The conference ID is as specified by the user
The gatekeeper registered directory number (E.164 number) is LP + conference ID
For ad hoc conference created using the auto-attendant:
The conference ID is as specified by the user
The gatekeeper registered directory number (E.164 number) is LP +conference ID
For ad hoc conference created by dialing in to unrecognized E.164 number:
The conference ID is the dialed number, after stripping the SP if it begins with it
The gatekeeper registered directory number (E.164 number) is the dialed number (with nothing
stripped)
