By moving IP zones between the two lists at the bottom of an IP zone, you can specify which IP zones
should be dialed using IP, and which IP zones should be dialed using ISDN.
should be dialed using IP, and which IP zones should be dialed using ISDN.
When setting up a conference with participants in different IP zones, Cisco TMS will try to include a
Cisco TelePresence MCU from the IP zone where the majority of the participants are situated.

In the Gateway Resource Pool settings you specify which prefixes to dial in order to use a gateway.
The ISDN Zone dropdown allows you to specify which ISDN Zone’s dialing rules should apply to the
gateway you want to use. The reason you specify the prefix rather than the gateway directly, is that
this allows for more flexibility in Cisco TMS. It means that you can use load-balanced gateways, and
even gateways not supported by Cisco TMS.

Allow IP-ISDN-IP:
Check this option to allow Cisco TMS to schedule calls from an IP only
endpoint out through an IP-ISDN gateway to an IP only endpoint in via
an ISDN-IP gateway. The set-up time for this type of calls can be close
