Gateway total call restriction

nareh84 · ‎08-26-2009

hi all,

There is implementation of Gatekeeper in distributed (CME only) model for CAC. Is it possible to define in the gateway to allow certain number of incoming/outgoing call (if gatekeeper is not implemented).

Regards

Naresh

Hi Naresh,

CME can do a limited amount of CAC itself without a gatekeeper, either by limiting the number of simultaneous calls associated with each dial peer or by using RSVP.

But, per dial peer call counting doesn't work well if you're using more than one dial peer per WAN link, and RSVP requires end to end support within your network.

Hope it helps, if it does please rate.

Best regards,

- AdriÃ¡n.

There are a number of call treatment options.

You can do it on CPU utilization, a certain amount of calls over an interface, and many others.

There's more information on the call treatment and call threshold information here:

As well, the 'call treatment' and 'call threshold' command reference is helpful.

hth,
