Configuring VCS to use the Cisco TelePresence Advanced Media
Gateway
The Advanced Media Gateway configuration page
Gateway > Configuration) is used to configure how a VCS routes calls to or from a Microsoft Office
Communications Server (OCS) zone via the Cisco TelePresence Advanced Media Gateway (Cisco
AM GW).
The Cisco AM GW provides support for transcoding between standard codecs (such as H.264) and
Microsoft RT Video to allow high definition calls between Microsoft Office Communicator (MOC)
clients and Cisco endpoints.

Configuring the VCS

For a VCS to use the Cisco AM GW you must first configure at least two zones:
An OCS zone (a zone with a Zone profile set to Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007).
n
A Cisco AM GW zone (a zone with a Zone profile set to Cisco Advanced Media Gateway). Note
n
that a Cisco AM GW zone can be configured with up to six Cisco AM GW peers for load balancing
purposes. Also note that Cisco AM GW zones do not require any associated search rules.
To start using the Cisco AM GW to transcode calls:
1. Go to the Advanced Media Gateway configuration page.
2. Click on the Advanced Media Gateway zone drop-down and choose the required Cisco AM GW
zone. Note that only zones configured with a Zone profile of Cisco Advanced Media Gateway
appear in this list.
After a zone is selected, calls to or from the OCS are routed via the Cisco AM GWs connected to
that zone.
By default, all OCS calls are routed via the Cisco AM GW.
If you want to control which calls go through the Cisco AM GW you have to set up policy rules. To do
this, set Policy mode to On and then go to the

Usage features and limitations

If the Cisco AM GW reaches its capacity, any calls that would normally route via the Cisco AM GW
n
will not fail; the call will still connect as usual but will not be transcoded.
