Configuring Gateway Settings

Gateway
(if not already selected).
Step 2
Click the
Settings
tab.
Step 3

Configuring IP Connectivity Settings
In the IP Connectivity section of the Settings tab, you can select the IP connectivity mode in which the
gateway operates, set the address of the gatekeeper with which the gateway registers, and define the way
in which the gateway interacts with the gatekeeper.
You can configure the IP connectivity mode in the following two ways:
•
Using a gatekeeper—The gateway registers with a gatekeeper and uses the gatekeeper for every call
(See
Configuring the Gateway to Register With a Gatekeeper, page 3-5
).
•
Peer-to-Peer—The gateway connects directly to a peer device without the need for a gatekeeper.
Peer devices include Cisco CallManager.
Caution
Changing the IP connectivity mode setting causes the gateway to reset.
