Port configuration information includes a port access type. When
MeetingPlace receives dialed number information, the DID/DDI access plan
determines which port access type is assigned to a call. However, if for some
reason the system cannot use the DID/DDI or DNIS information it receives
from the network (for example, if the network passes MeetingPlace incorrect
or unrecognizable digits), the configuration information you provide for each
individual port will determine the port access type.

If your system does not receive dialed number information at all, decide
what access types to assign to each port or group of ports that connect
MeetingPlace to the telephone network.

Monitoring MeetingPlace with SNMP
You can monitor MeetingPlace by using the MeetingPlace SNMP option.
This feature uses the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
version 1 and supports MIB-II. If your server has an SNMP management
tool, you can configure this feature to provide you with network status
information and management access to MeetingPlace through your network
management system. Traps can be activated by the SNMP module when the
system restarts or crashes, one of the network links changes state, a T1 line
goes down, the Gateway SIM registers an alarm, or an SNMP message is
received which fails authentication.

The MeetingPlace SNMP option consists of two components you need to
configure: Network Management Information and Network Management
Communities. Network Management Information controls high-level access
to the MeetingPlace SNMP module and allows MeetingPlace to exchange
SNMP data with the rest of your network. Network Management
Communities control the IP addresses to which SNMP messages are sent and
the type of access provided in response to those messages.

Notes:
•
SNMP is turned on by default on all new systems. To disable the SNMP
option, contact your MeetingPlace customer support representative.

You must load MIB files into your monitoring system and configure
them to enable the trap messages to show up properly. For more

Server Configuration
The Server and NS Site Configuration topics are where you enter address
information for the MeetingPlace server on your LAN. Default information
is filled in during installation, but you can make changes based on your
planning worksheet information. The parameters also include the number of
conference and access ports on each server at your company.
