Setting the connect timeout

Per default the H.323 gateway waits for 60s when the call is in the alerting phase for the call to be answered. If
the call is not answered within that time, the call is dropped. The value of this timer can be changed using the
following procedure:
Mode: Gateway H.323
Step
1
node(gw-h323)[h323]# timeout connect sec-
onds
Example: Defining an alternate connect timeout
The following example shows how to define an alternate connect timeout of 20 seconds on an already defined
H.323 Gateway.
node(cfg)#gateway h323 h323
node(gw-h323)[h323]#timeout connect 20
Configuring the terminal type for registration with the gatekeeper
H.323 gatekeepers may differentiate between two terminal types (terminals and gateways) of the registrant. In
some applications it is necessary for the gateway to register as a terminal, while in other applications it is neces-
sary to register as a gateway.with the gatekeeper. The default terminal type is gateway. It can be changed using
the following procedure: Usually you do not need to change this setting.
Procedure: Configure the registration type of the registration with the gatekeeper
Mode: Gateway H.323
Step
