H.323-TCS Generic Video Configuration

To enable this feature, you need to set up media profile configurations appropriately. Media profiles now allow you to set the configuration either as “generic video” or generic audio.

H.245 provides for defining new capabilities that are described as H.245 generic capabilities (GenericCapability), which the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller now supports using the H.245 GenericCapability structure. H.264 and G.722.1 are the first codecs the Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller offers that use this mechanism.

To set a media profile for generic video support:

  1. In Superuser mode, type configure terminal and press Enter.
    ORACLE# configure terminal
    ORACLE(configure)#
  2. Type session-router and press Enter.
    ORACLE(configure)# session-router
  3. Type media-profile and press Enter.
    ORACLE(session-router)# media-profile
    ORACLE(media-profile)#
  4. name—Set the name of the generic video media profile to genericVideo. There is no default for this parameter.
  5. media-type—Set the media type to use for this media profile; for generic video, set this parameter to video.
  6. payload-type—Set the payload type to use for the generic video media profile.
  7. transport—Set the transport type to use for the generic video media profile.
  8. Complete the rest of the media profile configuration as needed.
  9. Save and activate your configuration.

The following is a sample of a generic video media profile configuration:

media-profile
        name                           genericVideo
        media-type                    video
        payload-type                   99
        transport                      RTP/AVP
        req-bandwidth                  0
        frames-per-packet              0
        parameters
        average-rate-limit             0
        sdp-rate-limit-headroom        0
        sdp-bandwidth                  disabled
