Getting Started
Configuring Basic Gatekeeper Settings
About this task
Configure the gatekeeper settings if your Avaya XT Series works with one. A gatekeeper routes
audio and video H.323 calls by resolving dial strings (H.323 alias or URI) into the IP address of an
endpoint, and handles the initial connection of calls. To modify advanced gatekeeper settings, see
Deployment Guide for Avaya XT Series.
Procedure
1. Access the Quick Setup Wizard from the endpoint, as described in
Settings with the Quick Setup Wizard
2. Configure the gatekeeper connection as described in the following table.

About this task
This section explains how to register your XT Series to the SIP server.
The XT Series can function in a SIP environment, where endpoint names or numbers are
managed by SIP servers, not gatekeepers. You can dial an endpoint by entering its name or
number like 1234 or joe_smith, rather than remembering its IP address, where the SIP server
routes the call correctly. To do this, the SIP server must register all endpoints to maintain the
mapping list of names/numbers and endpoints to successfully route calls.
Before you begin
