This configuration applies when using a video system's built-in MultiSite feature (optional) to 
host a multipoint video conference.
Specify the maximum overall transmit bit rate allowed. The bit rate will be divided fairly among 
all active calls at any time. This means that the individual calls will be up-speeded or down-
speeded as appropriate when someone leaves or enters a multipoint conference, or when a call 
is put on hold (suspended) or resumed.
The maximum transmit bit rate for each individual call is defined in the Conference 
MaxTransmitCallRate setting.
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Range:  Select a value between 64 and 10000.
Example:
 Conference 1 MaxTotalTransmitCallRate: 9000
Conference [1..1] MaxTotalReceiveCallRate

Conference [1..1] VideoBandwidth Mode
Set the conference video bandwidth mode.
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Dynamic:  The available transmit bandwidth for the video channels are distributed among the 
currently active channels. If there is no presentation, the main video channels will use the 
bandwidth of the presentation channel.
Static:  The available transmit bandwidth is assigned to each video channel, even if it is not 
active.
Example:
 Conference 1 VideoBandwidth Mode: Dynamic
Conference [1..1] VideoBandwidth MainChannel Weight
The available transmit video bandwidth is distributed on the main channel and presentation 
channel according to "MainChannel Weight" and "PresentationChannel Weight". If the main 
channel weight is 2 and the presentation channel weight is 1, then the main channel will use 
twice as much bandwidth as the presentation channel.
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Range:  1 to 10.
Example:
 Conference 1 VideoBandwidth MainChannel Weight: 5

Example:
 Conference 1 Presentation Policy: LocalRemote
Conference [1..1] Presentation RelayQuality
This configuration applies to video systems that are using the built-in MultiSite feature (optional) 
to host a multipoint video conference. When a remote user shares a presentation, the video 
system (codec) will transcode the presentation and send it to the other participants in the 
multipoint conference. The RelayQuality setting specifies whether to give priority to high frame 
rate or to high resolution for the presentation source.
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Motion:  Gives the highest possible frame rate. Used when there is a need for higher frame 
rates, typically when there is a lot of motion in the picture.
Sharpness:  Gives the highest possible resolution. Used when you want the highest quality of 
detailed images and graphics.
Example:
 Conference 1 Presentation RelayQuality: Sharpness
Conference [1..1] Presentation OnPlacedOnHold
Define whether or not to continue sharing a presentation after the remote site has put you on 
hold. 
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Stop:  The video system stops the presentation sharing when the remote site puts you on 
hold. The presentation will not continue when the call is resumed.
NoAction:  The video system will not stop the presentation sharing when put on hold. The 
presentation will not be shared while you are on hold, but it will continue automatically when 
the call is resumed.
Example:

73
Conference [1..1] Multipoint Mode
Define how the video system handles multiparty video conferences.
If registered to a Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server (VCS), the video system 
can either use its own built-in MultiSite feature, or it can rely on the MultiWay network solution. 
MultiWay requires that the video network includes a multipoint control unit (MCU). 
If registered to a Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) version 8.6.2 or newer, the 
video system can use either the CUCM conference bridge, or the video system's own built-in 
MultiSite feature. Which one to use is set-up by CUCM.
Both Multiway and the CUCM conference bridge allows you to set up conferences with many 
participants. The MultiSite feature allows up to four participants (yourself included) plus one 
additional audio call. 
Note that the MultiSite feature is optional and may not be available on all video systems.
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Auto:  If a MultiWay address is specified in the NetworkServices MultiWay Address setting, 
MultiWay takes priority over MultiSite. If neither MultiWay nor MultiSite is available, the 
Multipoint Mode is set to Off automatically.
Off:  Multiparty conferences are not allowed.
MultiSite:  Multiparty conferences are set up using MultiSite. If MultiSite is chosen when the 
MultiSite feature is not available, the Multipoint Mode will be set to Off.
MultiWay:  Multiparty conferences are set up using MultiWay. The Multipoint Mode will be set 
to Off automatically if the MultiWay service is unavailable, for example if a server address is 
not specified in the NetworkServices MultiWay Address setting.
CUCMMediaResourceGroupList:  Multiparty conferences (ad hoc conferences) are hosted by 
the CUCM configured conference bridge. This setting is provisioned by CUCM in a CUCM 
environment and should never be set manually by the user.
Example:
 Conference 1 Multipoint Mode: Auto
Conference [1..1] IncomingMultisiteCall Mode
Select whether or not to allow incoming calls when already in a call/conference.
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Allow:  You will be notified when someone calls you while you are already in a call. You can 
accept the incoming call or not. The ongoing call may be put on hold while answering the 
incoming call; or you may merge the calls (requires MultiSite or MultiWay support).
Deny:  An incoming call will be rejected if you are already in a call. You will not be notified 
about the incoming call. However, the call will appear as a missed call in the call history list.
Example:
 Conference 1 IncomingMultisiteCall Mode: Allow

H323 settings
H323 NAT Mode
The firewall traversal technology creates a secure path through the firewall barrier, and enables 
proper exchange of audio/video data when connected to an external video conferencing 
system (when the IP traffic goes through a NAT router). NOTE: NAT does not work in 
conjunction with gatekeepers.
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Auto:  The system will determine if the H323 NAT Address or the real IP address should be 
used in signaling. This makes it possible to place calls to endpoints on the LAN as well as 
endpoints on the WAN. If the H323 NAT Address is wrong or not set, the real IP address will 
be used.
Off:  The system will signal the real IP address.
On:  The system will signal the configured H323 NAT Address instead of its real IP address 
in Q.931 and H.245. The NAT Server Address will be shown in the startup-menu as: "My IP 
Address: 10.0.2.1". If the H323 NAT Address is wrong or not set, H.323 calls cannot be set 
up.
Example:
 H323 NAT Mode: Off
H323 NAT Address
Enter the external/global IP address to the router with NAT support. Packets sent to the 
router will then be routed to the system. Note that NAT cannot be used when registered to a 
gatekeeper.
In the router, the following ports must be routed to the system's IP address: 
 * Port 1720 
 * Port 5555-6555 
 * Port 2326-2487
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Format:  A valid IPv4 address or IPv6 address.
Example:
 H323 NAT Address: ""
H323 Profile [1..1] Authentication Mode
Set the authenticatin mode for the H.323 profile.
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Off:  If the H.323 Gatekeeper Authentication Mode is set to Off the system will not try to 
authenticate itself to a H.323 Gatekeeper, but will still try a normal registration.
On:  If the H.323 Gatekeeper Authentication Mode is set to On and a H.323 Gatekeeper 
indicates that it requires authentication, the system will try to authenticate itself to the 
gatekeeper. NOTE: Requires the Authentication LoginName and Authentication Password to 
be defined on both the codec and the Gatekeeper.
Example:
 H323 Profile 1 Authentication Mode: Off
H323 Profile [1..1] Authentication LoginName
The system sends the Authentication Login Name and the Authentication Password to a H.323 
Gatekeeper for authentication. The authentication is a one way authentication from the codec 
to the H.323 Gatekeeper, i.e. the system is authenticated to the gatekeeper. If the H.323 
Gatekeeper indicates that no authentication is required, the system will still try to register. 
NOTE: Requires the H.323 Gatekeeper Authentication Mode to be enabled.
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Format:  String with a maximum of 50 characters.
Example:
 H323 Profile 1 Authentication LoginName: ""

77
H323 Profile [1..1] Authentication Password
The system sends the Authentication Login Name and the Authentication Password to a H.323 
Gatekeeper for authentication. The authentication is a one way authentication from the codec 
to the H.323 Gatekeeper, i.e. the system is authenticated to the gatekeeper. If the H.323 
Gatekeeper indicates that no authentication is required, the system will still try to register. 
NOTE: Requires the H.323 Gatekeeper Authentication Mode to be enabled.
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Format:  String with a maximum of 50 characters.
Example:
 H323 Profile 1 Authentication Password: ""
H323 Profile [1..1] CallSetup Mode
The H.323 Call Setup Mode defines whether to use a Gatekeeper or Direct calling when 
establishing H323 calls.
NOTE: Direct H.323 calls can be made even though the H.323 Call Setup Mode is set to 
Gatekeeper.
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Direct:  An IP address must be used when dialing in order to make the H323 call.
Gatekeeper:  The system will use a Gatekeeper to make a H.323 call. When selecting this 
option the H323 Profile Gatekeeper Address and H323 Profile Gatekeeper Discovery 
settings must also be configured.
Example:
 H323 Profile 1 CallSetup Mode: Gatekeeper
H323 Profile [1..1] Gatekeeper Discovery
Determine how the system shall register to a H.323 Gatekeeper.
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Manual:  The system will use a specific Gatekeeper identified by the Gatekeeper's IP address.
Auto:  The system will automatically try to register to any available Gatekeeper. If a 
Gatekeeper responds to the request sent from the codec within 30 seconds this specific 
Gatekeeper will be used. This requires that the Gatekeeper is in auto discovery mode as 
well. If no Gatekeeper responds, the system will not use a Gatekeeper for making H.323 
calls and hence an IP address must be specified manually.
Example:
 H323 Profile 1 Gatekeeper Discovery: Manual
H323 Profile [1..1] Gatekeeper Address
Enter the IP address of the Gatekeeper. NOTE: Requires the H.323 Call Setup Mode to be set to 
Gatekeeper and the Gatekeeper Discovery to be set to Manual.
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Format:  A valid IPv4 address, IPv6 address or DNS name.
Example:
 H323 Profile 1 Gatekeeper Address: "192.0.2.0"
H323 Profile [1..1] H323Alias E164
The H.323 Alias E.164 defines the address of the system, according to the numbering plan 
implemented in the H.323 Gatekeeper. The E.164 alias is equivalent to a telephone number, 
sometimes combined with access codes.
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Format:  Compact string with a maximum of 30 characters. Valid characters are 0-9, * and #.
Example:
 H323 Profile 1 H323Alias E164: "90550092"
H323 Profile [1..1] H323Alias ID
Lets you specify the H.323 Alias ID which is used to address the system on a H.323 Gatekeeper 
and will be displayed in the call lists. Example: "[email protected]", "My H.323 
Alias ID"
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Format:  String with a maximum of 49 characters.
Example:
 H323 Profile 1 H323Alias ID: "[email protected]"

H323 Profile [1..1] PortAllocation
The H.323 Port Allocation setting affects the H.245 port numbers used for H.323 call signalling.
Requires user role:  ADMIN
Value space:  
Dynamic:  The system will allocate which ports to use when opening a TCP connection. The 
reason for doing this is to avoid using the same ports for subsequent calls, as some firewalls 
consider this as a sign of attack. When Dynamic is selected, the H.323 ports used are from 
11000 to 20999. Once 20999 is reached they restart again at 11000. For RTP and RTCP 
media data, the system is using UDP ports in the range 2326 to 2487. Each media channel 
is using two adjacent ports, ie 2330 and 2331 for RTP and RTCP respectively. The ports are 
automatically selected by the system within the given range. Firewall administrators should 
not try to deduce which ports are used when, as the allocation schema within the mentioned 
range may change without any further notice.
Static:  When set to Static the ports are given within a static predefined range [5555-6555].
Example:
 H323 Profile 1 PortAllocation: Dynamic
