Table 30 End Point Field Descriptions
Name Description
Type Identifies the type of end point. The drop-down list provides
the following options:
■ Gateway – Identifies the end point as either a media
gateway, an IP Messaging server, IP Messaging client, or an
IP Conferencing server.
■ Terminal – Identifies the end point as a device that will not
register within the network.
■ Call Processor – Identifies the end point as a call processor.
Use this type of call processing end point when a call
terminates at the end point (for example, in a single-site
system).
■ Redirect Call Processor – Identifies the end point as a
redirect call processor. Use this type of call processing end
point when a call does not terminate at the end point and
therefore requires further routing information. For
example, in a multi-site system a regional office can act as
a redirect call processor for its branch offices. Calls from a
branch to destinations outside of the branch are sent to
the regional office, which redirects each call to its proper
destination.
Active Determines if the end point is active or inactive. A call
processor with a route that includes an inactive end point
cannot forward calls to that end point.
Yes = active
No = inactive
Name Enter a unique name that identifies the end point.
Description Optionally, enter a string that describes the location or
purpose of the end point.
Site Id Enter the site identifier for this end point. The site ID is
typically the pattern (prefix) dialed by a caller to reach a
regional or branch office.
IP Address Enter the IP address of the end point (for example, the VCX
server hosting the call processor or the gateway).
