Overview
The VidyoGateway is a 1U rack-mountable server that connects VidyoPortal™ users with users on
systems using the SIP and H.323 videoconferencing protocols. The systems that use these
protocols are referred to as Legacy systems.
This document describes how to use the VidyoGateway to connect with a VidyoConferencing™
system that includes Legacy systems. It is written for system administrators who must set up and
maintain a VidyoConferencing system.
The VidyoGateway is also available as the VidyoGateway Virtual Edition, and can be run as a virtual
appliance. For more information, see
Note To perform the setup and configuration described in this manual, you must have Admin
access to your VidyoGateway and Super Admin access to your VidyoPortal.
Terms used in this guide are defined in a separate section. For more information, see
