Establishing Authentication with Cisco H.323 Gatekeeper

You can configure the Cisco ATA to establish authentication with a Cisco H.323 Gatekeeper. The
Cisco ATA supports two authentication methods:
•
•
To configure either authentication method, use the following procedure:
Procedure
Set the UseLoginID parameter to 1. This setting indicates that the LoginID0 and LoginID1 fields will be
Step 1
used for Cisco ATA H.323 registration.
Set the UID0 and UID1 parameters to the E.164 phone numbers that are assigned to the FXS ports on
Step 2
the Cisco ATA.
Set the LoginID0 and LoginID1 parameters to the H.323 ID. The H.323 ID is used when the Cisco ATA
Step 3
registers with the H.323 gatekeeper. This ID is also used as the account ID for the RADIUS server.
Set the PWD0 and PWD1 parameters to the passwords for the Phone 1 and Phone 2 FXS ports (the
Step 4
passwords in the RADIUS server), respectively.
Set the NTPIP and AltNTPIP parameters to the IP addresses of the NTP servers in your network.
Step 5
Select the authentication method using the AutMethod parameter (0 indicates no authentication; 1
Step 6
indicates the Cisco registration level security method; 2 indicates the Cisco admission level security
method).
