Alias Name
(H.323) Select the alias name format from the drop-down
list.
E.164 and H.323ID are the formats supported by the
system.
E.164 format includes only digits, * and #.
H.323ID format supports letters and numerals.
SIP Address (SIP) sip: [user name]@[domain]. Note that the SIP
URI adheres to URI rules: no spaces or special
characters such as commas, quotation marks,
inverted tags and so forth either in the user name or
in the domain part.
[To compare to H.323, which uses the endpoint location for
identifying the participant, in SIP participants can change
locations but still be addressed as long as they continu-
ously refresh their registrations with the proxy. The proxy
forwards Invitees to their current location.
Alias Type (H.323) If you have not defined the participant’s or MCU’s IP
address, first select the Alias Type and then enter
the name of the PC or MCU as defined in the
network (usually by the gatekeeper).
Enter the Alias name using the naming conventions
appropriate to the Alias Type.
