Interacting with Firewalls using Fixed ports and Polycom H.323 products -- H.323 uses a single fixed TCP port (1720) to start a call using the H.225 protocol (defined by H.323 spec) for call control. Once that protocol is complete, it then uses a dynamic TCP port for the H.245 protocol (also defined by the H.323 spec) for caps and channel control.
-
Gatekeeper Registration -- There are two very good reasons for a videoconference endpoint located on the UTN network to use the UTN gatekeeper. One is that it may then use call registered devices. The second is that the videoconferencing system can be portable, using DHCP to obtain an IP network address, but still maintain the same videoconference address for use by others.
