Option keys
Your VCS may have been shipped with one or more optional features pre-installed. Additional VCS
features can be added to your existing system by the installation of option keys.
To view the list of options installed currently, go to
the
Option keys
page.
The options that you may see here include:
•
Expressway
: enables the VCS to work as an Expressway™ firewall traversal server
•
H.323 to SIP Interworking gateway
: enables H.323 calls to be translated to SIP and vice versa
•
User Policy
: enables TANDBERG
FindMe
•
Dual Network Interfaces
: enables the LAN 2 port
•
Device Provisioning
: enables the
TMS Agent
•
Traversal calls:
determines the number of traversal calls allowed on the VCS at any one time.
A traversal call is any call where the local VCS is required to take the media as well as the
signalling, i.e. firewall traversal calls, calls that are interworked between IPv4 and IPv6 calls, and
calls that are interworked between SIP and H.323. See the section
more information. Note that traversal calls that are passing through the VCS from one neighbor
to another but where neither endpoint in the call is locally registered will still be counted as one
traversal call.
•
Non-traversal calls
: determines the number of non-traversal calls allowed on the VCS at any one
time. A non-traversal call is any call where the VCS is taking the signalling but not the media.
See the section
What are traversal calls?
are passing through the VCS from one neighbor to another but where neither endpoint in the call
is locally registered may or may not require a non-traversal call licence, depending on the
routed mode
setting.
•
Registrations
: the number of concurrent
register with more than one alias and this will be considered to be a single registration.
However, an endpoint that supports both SIP and H.323 and registers using both protocols will
count as two registrations. H.323 systems such as gateways, MCUs and Content Servers can
also register with a VCS, and these will each count as one registration.
•
Encryption
: indicates that AES encryption is supported by this software build.
Contact your TANDBERG representative for more information on how to purchase any of these
additional features.
Once the appropriate option key has been purchased, options can be installed in either of two
ways:
•
using the CL
I
•
using the web interfac
e.
This section describes both installation methods.

Some option keys require that the VCS is restarted before the option key will take effect. In
such cases you will receive a warning on the web interface, which will remain in place as a
reminder until the system has been restarted. However, you can continue to use and
configure the VCS in the meantime.
