Assignment 2: H323 (by Fabio & Anneke)

We use gnomemeeting softphones and a gnugk gatekeeper.

Configuration of Gnomemeeting

Edit -> Preferences

• General: You can fill in your personal data and leave everything default
• H323 Settings: Gatekeeper:

Registering method: Gatekeeper host
Gatekeeper host: 129.125.71.173:1719 
Gatekeeper alias: 601

Gatekeeper host is the IP address and port of the gatekeeper. Port 1720 is the standard h323 port but in our case the h323 client was on the same computer so the 1720 port was already occupied. Gatekeeper alias is the primary alias with the gatekeeper, also the extension number in Asterisk to keep things simple.

Tick the "Register this alias as the primary alias with the gatekeeper" box and Apply (sorry, this is of course after you've installed the gk) :).
