Setting Description
Basic Mode Enables a limited operating mode that uses H.261 for video
and G.711 for audio. This mode provides administrators with a
workaround for interoperability issues that cannot be solved
using other methods. The Basic Mode setting stays in effect
until you change it.
Basic Mode disables many system features such as content
sharing, far end camera control, and advanced audio and
video algorithms. Use Basic Mode only when calling systems
that fail to operate properly with these advanced features.
H.239 Specifies standards-based People+Content data collaboration.
IP H.323 Allows the system to make IP calls.
SIP Allows the system to use SIP when connecting IP calls.
ISDN H.320 Allows the system to make ISDN calls.
VSX 3000 This selection is only available when the system has ISDN
VSX 3000A networking capability.
