H.323 Alias and Gatekeeper
An H.323 Alias is a unique name assigned for each H.323 terminal, User or
Meeting. The User name of a H.323 terminal registered with the gatekeeper is
assigned as the User’s H.323 Alias.
This system is used because having a set of easily-identifiable numbers or
characters to designate other Users is a much simpler method than using IP
Addresses. Assigning an H.323 Alias to a Meeting configured on the HD
VISUAL COMMUNICATION SERVER allows each terminal to directly
enter Meetings using an H.323 Alias.
The gatekeeper embedded in the HD VISUAL COMMUNICATION
SERVER holds H.323 Alias and IP Address information for all registered
Endpoints and Meetings. This makes it easy to enter Meetings and call other
Users with an H.323 Alias.
The H.323 Alias can be assigned during the following configuration tasks:
• User H.323 Alias: When providing / changing User information settings
• Meeting H.323 Alias: When providing / changing Meeting information
settings
