8.5 Mediant 1000 Registration with a Gatekeeper
The Mediant 1000 supports three different methods of registration with a Gatekeeper:
8.5.1 Registration with Prefixes
The gateway registers with a Gatekeeper using prefixes (range of numbers).
¾ To register with prefixes, take these 2 steps:
1. Configure the Registration Prefixes Table (refer to Section 5.5.6 on page 112).
2. Set the GWRegistrType parameter (Table 5-4) according to your requirements:
• E.164 [0] = The gateway registers the prefixes using E.164 format (default).
• H323-ID [1] = The gateway registers the prefixes using H.323-ID format (prefixes
are represented as strings). In this mode don’t configure the H323IDString
parameter (if you do, the gateway only registers with H323IDString and the
prefixes are ignored).
• E.164 and H323-ID [2] = The gateway registers the prefixes using E.164 and
H.323-ID formats. In this mode the H323IDString (if defined) is added once to the
Registration Request; if not defined, each prefix registers twice, in E.164 format
and H.323-ID format (as a string).
• NPI/TON from Table [3] = The gateway registers the prefixes using Type of
Number format (refer to the note below).
• NPI/TON and H323-ID [4] = The gateway registers the prefixes using Type of
Number and H323-ID formats (refer to the note below). The H323-ID functionality
is identical to the functionality explained in option [2].
Note: If ‘GWRegistrType’ parameter contains NPI/TON (options [3] or [4]) the gateway
uses the prefixes defined in the ‘Registration Prefixes Table to register as ‘PartyNumber’.
In this registration mode the ‘Type of Number’ columns are used, to define the prefix’s
TON. In other modes (options [0], [1] or [2]), the TON column is ignored.
8.5.2 Registration with H.323-ID
The gateway registers with a Gatekeeper using a single descriptive name.
¾ To register with H.323-ID, take these 2 steps:
1. Set the Gateway Registration Type parameter to H.323-ID (GwRegistrType = 1).
2. Configure the H.323-ID (H323IDString) parameter.
