Add Endpoint Dialog
The Add Endpoint dialog lets you manually add a device to the system. 
When you add an endpoint manually, the system applies its registration policy script (see 
to determine the device’s compliance level (compliant or noncompliant with the policy), and then applies the 
admission policy associated with that result to determine the registration status of the device. 
The following table describes the parts of the dialog. 
Field
Description
Device type 
The device’s signaling protocol (H.323 or SIP). 
Signaling address 
For an H.323 device, the H.225 call signaling address and port of the device. Either 
this or the RAS address is required. 
RAS address 
For an H.323 device, the RAS (Registration, Admission and Status) channel address 
and port of the device. 
Aliases 
For an H.323 device, lists the device’s aliases. When you’re adding a device, this list 
is empty. The Add button lets you add an alias. 
Address of record 
For a SIP device, the AOR with which the device registers (see registration rules in 
RFC 3261), such as: 
sip:1000@westminster.polycom.com 
Device authentication 
Indicates whether the endpoint must authenticate itself. 
Note: Inbound authentication for the device type must be enabled at the system 
level (see 
), or the setting for the device has no effect. 
Class of service 
Select to specify the class of service and the bit rate limits for calls to and from this 
device. 
A call between two devices receives the higher class of service of the two. 
Note: The class of service of the device applies to point to point calls. VMR calls use 
the class of service of the conference room. 
Maximum bit rate (kbps) 
The maximum bit rate for calls to and from this device. 
Minimum downspeed bit 
rate (kbps) 
The minimum bit rate to which calls from this device can be downspeeded to 
manage bandwidth. If this minimum isn’t available, the call is dropped. 
Model 
Optional model number/name for the device. 
Version 
Optional version information for the device.
