Command reference - xConfiguration
Authentication Mode: <On/Off>
Determines whether systems attempting to communicate with the VCS must authenticate with it first.
Off : incoming messages are not authenticated.
On
: for H.323, any credentials in the message are checked against the authentication database. The message is allowed if the credentials match, or if there are no credentials in the
message. For SIP, any messages originating from an endpoint in a local domain will be authenticated.
Default: Off
Example:
xConfiguration Authentication Mode: Off
Authentication Password: <S: 0, 215>
The password used by the VCS when authenticating with another system. The maximum plaintext length is 128 characters, which is then encrypted. Note: this does not apply to traversal
client zones.
Example:
xConfiguration Authentication Password: "password123"
Authentication UserName: <S: 0, 128>
The username used by the VCS when authenticating with another system. Note: this does not apply to traversal client zones.
Example:
xConfiguration Authentication UserName: "VCS123"
Bandwidth Default: <64..2048>

xConfiguration Bandwidth Default: 384
Bandwidth Downspeed PerCall Mode: <On/Off>
Determines whether or not the VCS will attempt to downspeed a call if there is insufficient per-call bandwidth available to fulfill the request.

Off
: the call will be rejected.
Default: On
Example:
xConfiguration Bandwidth Downspeed PerCall Mode: On
Bandwidth Downspeed Total Mode: <On/Off>
Determines whether or not the VCS will attempt to downspeed a call if there is insufficient total bandwidth available to fulfill the request.
On : the VCS will attempt to place the call at a lower bandwidth.
