Cisco Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server Expressway 관리 매뉴얼
VCS Base Applications
The VCS is available with alternative base applications as described below.
VCS Control
VCS Control delivers any-to-any enterprise wide conference and session management and interworking capabilities.
It extends the reach of telepresence conferences by enabling interworking between Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)-
and H.323-compliant endpoints, interworking with third-party endpoints; it integrates with Unified CM and supports
third-party IP private branch exchange (IP PBX) solutions. VCS Control implements the tools required for creative
session management, including definition of aspects such as routing, dial plans, and bandwidth usage, while
allowing organizations to define call-management applications, customized to their requirements.

VCS Expressway
The VCS Expressway deployed with the VCS Control enables smooth video communications easily and securely
outside the enterprise. It enables business-to-business video collaboration, improves the productivity of remote and
home-based workers, and enables service providers to provide video communications to customers. The application
performs securely through standards-based and secure firewall traversal for all SIP and H.323 devices. As a result,
organizations benefit from increased employee productivity and enhanced communication with partners and
customers.

customers.
It uses an intelligent framework that allows endpoints behind firewalls to discover paths through which they can pass
media, verify peer-to-peer connectivity through each of these paths, and then select the optimum media connection
path, eliminating the need to reconfigure enterprise firewalls.

The VCS Expressway is built for high reliability and scalability, supporting multivendor firewalls, and it can traverse
any number of firewalls regardless of SIP or H.323 protocol.
