Configuring H.323 endpoints
You can configure H.323 endpoints to work with the IP VCR by choosing Endpoints > Add H.323. This makes it easier to
call out to endpoints because you can choose names from a list rather than adding network addresses.
Refer to the table below for tips on adding an H.323 endpoint to the IP VCR. After entering the settings, click
Add
endpoint.
Field Field description Usage tips
Name
The name of the endpoint.
Address
The IP address, host name, or an E.164 address
(phone number).
You can configure this endpoint as needing to be
reached via an H.323 gateway without that gateway
being already configured on the IP VCR. To do
this, set this field to be <gateway
address>!<E.164>.
H.323
gateway
The gateway through which the endpoint connects.
H.239 video
contribution
Whether this endpoint is permitted to contribute a
content channel using H.239 when making a new
recording.
H.239 video
receive
Whether this endpoint is allowed to receive a
separate H.239 video stream when playing back a
stored recording.
Call-in match
parameters
These fields are used to identify incoming calls as
being from the endpoint:
• Name: This must be the name that the
endpoint sends to the IP VCR
• IP address: The IP address of the endpoint
• E.164: The E.164 number with which the
endpoint is registered with the gatekeeper
The endpoint is recognized if all filled-in fields in
this section are matched. Fields left blank are not
considered in the match.
When you configure Call-in match parameters, an
endpoint will be recognized as this pre-configured
endpoint and the Connection parameters will be
applied to a call from this endpoint.
Motion /
sharpness
trade off
Choose whether to use the unit-wide setting for
motion/sharpness trade off, or configure an
individual setting for use with this endpoint.
Choose from:
• <use box-wide setting>: this is the default
value. In this case, the connection to the
endpoint will use the motion / sharpness
tradeoff setting from the
Settings >
Connections
page.
• Favor motion: the IP VCR will try and use a
high frame rate. That is, the IP VCR will
strongly favor a resolution of at least 25
frames per second
The settings for motion (frames per second) and
sharpness (frame size or resolution) are negotiated
between the endpoint and the IP VCR. This setting
controls how the IP VCR will negotiate the settings
to be used with this endpoint.
