CHAPTER19 Coders and Profiles
Mediant 1000 Gateway & E-SBC | User's Manual
Parameter Description
allowed-video-coders
<group index/coder index>
[AllowedVideoCoders_
AllowedVideoCodersIndex]
Note: Each row must be configured with a unique
index.
'User Define Coder'
user-define-coder
[AllowedVideoCoders_
UserDefineCoder]
Defines a user-defined coder.
The valid value is a string of up to 24 characters (case-
insensitive). For example, "HD.123" (without quotes).
Note: Each coder can be configured only once per
Allowed Video Coders Group.
Configuring IP Profiles
The IP Profiles table lets you configure up to 40 IP Profiles. An IP Profile is a set of parameters with
user-defined settings relating to signaling (e.g., SIP message terminations such as REFER) and
media (e.g., coder type). An IP Profile can later be assigned to specific IP calls (inbound and/or
outbound). Thus, IP Profiles provide high-level adaptation when the device interworks between
different IP entities, each of which may require different handling by the device. This can include,
for example, transcoding or even transrating (of packetization time). For example, if a specific IP
entity uses the G.711 coder only, you can configure an IP Profile with G.711 for this IP entity.
To use your IP Profile for specific calls, you need to assign it to any of the following:
â– IP Groups - see Configuring IP Groups
â– (Gateway application only) Tel-to-IP routing rules (see Configuring Tel-to-IP Routing Rules)
â– (Gateway application only) IP-to-Tel routing rules (see Configuring IP-to-Tel Routing Rules)
For the Gateway application, the device selects the IP Profile as follows:
â– If you assign different IP Profiles (not default) to the same specific calls in all of the above-
mentioned tables, the device uses the IP Profile that has the highest preference level (as set in
the 'Profile Preference' parameter). If these IP Profiles have the same preference level, the
device uses the IP Profile that you assigned in the IP Groups table.
â– If you assign different IP Profiles to all of the above-mentioned tables and one table is set to the
default IP Profile, the device uses the IP Profile that is not the default.
Many of the parameters in the IP Profiles table have a corresponding "global" parameter. For calls
that are not associated with any IP Profile, the settings of the "global" parameters are applied.
You can also use IP Profiles when using a Proxy server (when the
AlwaysUseRouteTable parameter is set to 1).
The following procedure describes how to configure IP Profiles through the Web interface. You can
also configure it through ini file [IPProfile] or CLI ( configure voip > coders- and-
profiles ip-profile).
➢ To configure an IP Profile:
1. Open the IP Profiles table (Setup menu > Signaling & Media tab > Coders & Profiles folder
> IP Profiles).
2. Click New; the following dialog box appears:
