conference: H.323, or SIP or ISDN/PSTN.
The fields in the dialog box change according to the selected network type.
IP Address

Enter the IP address of the participant’s endpoint.
• For H.323 participant define either the endpoint IP address or alias.
• For SIP participant define either the endpoint IP address or the SIP address.
For Collaboration Servers registered to a gatekeeper, the Collaboration Server can be
configured to dial and receive calls to and from H.323 endpoints using the IP address
in the event that the Gatekeeper is not functioning.
Note: This field is hidden for ISDN/PSTN participants.
Participant Number
(ISDN/PSTN Only)
Enter the phone number of the ISDN/PSTN participant.
Note: This field is only displayed when the ISDN/PSTN protocol is selected.
Alias Name/Type

If you are using the endpoint’s alias and not the IP address, first select the type of
alias and then enter the endpoint’s alias:
• H.323 ID (alphanumeric ID)
• E.164 (digits 0-9, * and #)
• Email ID (email address format, e.g. abc@example.com)
• Participant Number (digits 0-9, * and #)
Notes:
• Although all types are supported, the type of alias is dependent on the gatekeeper’s
capabilities. The most commonly supported alias types are H.323 ID and E.164.
• This field is used to enter the Entry Queue ID, target Conference ID and
Conference Password when defining a cascaded link.
• Use of the E.164 Number is dependent on the setting of the
REMOVE_IP_IF_NUMBER_EXISTS System Flag. For more information see
