IP Network Service Definition
Use this procedure to define Network Services in addition to the Network Service already
defined during first entry installation and configuration. Each of the defined Network
Service can be associated with one or more media cards installed in the system (depending
on the system type).
Once a media card is associated with a Network Service it cannot be associated with
another network service.
To add new/additional Network Services:
1 In the Device Management pane, click IP Network Services ().
2 In the Network Services list toolbar, click the Add Network Service button.
The New IP Service - Networking IP dialog box opens.
3 Define the following fields:
Table 16-36 IP Network Service - IP Parameters
Field Description
Network Service
Name
Enter the IP Network Service name.
Note: This field is displayed in all IP Signaling dialog boxes and can
contain character sets that use Unicode encoding.
IP Network Type Select the IP Network environment. You can select:
• H.323: For an H.323-only Network Service.
• SIP: For a SIP-only Network Service.
• H.323 & SIP: For an integrated IP Service. Both H.323 and SIP
participants can connect to the Collaboration Server using this
service.
Note: This field is displayed in all Default IP Service tabs.
Signaling Host IP
Address
Enter the address to be used by IP endpoints when dialing into the
Collaboration Server using this Network Service.
Dial out calls of participants to whom this network service will be
assigned are initiated from this address.
This address is used to register the Collaboration Server with a
Gatekeeper or a SIP Proxy server residing on this network.
Media Card 1 IP
Address
If only one network is connected to this media card, it is enough to
assign one media card to this Network Service. In such a case, enter
one IP address for the media card according to the LAN Port used for
the connection.
If each of the LAN ports on one media card is used with two different
networks, each port is assigned to its own Network Service. In such a
case, enter the IP address of the port to be assigned to this Network
Service.
A LAN port that is already assigned to a different Network Service,
displays the IP Address of the assigned port and it cannot be
assigned to this Network Service (it is disabled).
