Integrators’ Reference Manual for ViewStation EX, ViewStation FX, and VS4000 54 www.polycom.com Keep in mind that the examples given here discuss only a s ingle point-to-point call . Your capacity planning calculations must take into account the total number of calls th at you expect the network to handle at one time, including mul tipoint calls.
Chapter 3 - Before You Deploy © Polycom, Inc. 55 Gatekeeper Identifier You will need to specify the gate keeper identifier for each gatekeeper being deployed. You must also de fine the maximum number of endpoints that may be registered to each gatekeeper and the maximum number of calls that each gatekeeper may handle at one time.
Integrators’ Reference Manual for ViewStation EX, ViewStation FX, and VS4000 56 www.polycom.com Service prefixes are short numer ic strings that identify the services being requested, such as call speed and zone. An H.323 dial plan allows you to associate a numeric alias to the network address of each H.
Chapter 3 - Before You Deploy © Polycom, Inc. 57 A well-designed dial pl an distributes the dial plan log ic among the gateways and gatekeepers. Try to keep the dial plan logic at the highest component level — for example, allow the gatekeeper to handle routing and fail-over decisions.
