Port Usage Gauge - Polycom RealPresence 800s Administrator's Manual

When the flag is set to YES, the system will allow SIP audio endpoints to connect to the
MCU until the Port Usage threshold is reached. Once this threshold is exceeded, the SIP
audio endpoints will not be able to connect, ensuring that the remaining system resources
can be used by all other connections, including SIP video, and H.323 cascaded links. When
the call is rejected by the MCU because of lack of resources, the appropriate indication will
be sent by the MCU to the SIP audio endpoint.
For example, if the Port Gauge threshold is set to 80%, when 80% of the Audio resources are
used, the system will not allow additional SIP audio endpoints to connect and will send a
busy notification to the endpoint.
This does not affect the video resources usage.
