The LifeSize Gateway provides a high degree of

gatekeepers, terminals, proxy, and Multipoint Control
Unit (MCU) products by being based on the H.320
standard and H.323 protocol stack.
The LifeSize Gateway features the LifeSize Gateway
interface. This is a web interface used to configure and
monitor the LifeSize Gateway. You can view and modify
all aspects of the LifeSize Gateway configuration from a
remote location using a Java-enabled web browser.
The LifeSize Gateway features Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) management that
supports all aspects of monitoring, diagnostics,
configuration, and trapping.
The LifeSize Gateway features front and rear panel LED
indicators that display status for the unit. You can also
access remote diagnostics of the unit through the
LifeSize Gateway interface, Telnet, SNMP, or a serial
port.
The LifeSize Gateway supports load balancing on the
network by communicating with a gatekeeper through
H.323 RAI (Resource Available Indication)/RAC
(Resource Available Confirmation) messages.
The LifeSize Gateway supports data transfers in calls
between ISDN and IP by using high speed T.120 in
HMLP and VarMLP formats.
