Default: enabled.

This allows or prevents incoming calls over SIP UDP.

Default: disabled.

Enable H.323 *

Enable WebRTC *

Enable RTMP *

These boxes allow you to enable or disable support for the selected protocol across all Conferencing Nodes in your Pexip Infinity deployment.

The name of the SIP domain that is routed from Lync / Skype for Business to Pexip Infinity, either as a static route or via federation.

You can also configure the Lync MSSIP domain on a per-location basis, which would override this global setting for Conferencing Nodes in that location.

When selected, this automatically escalates a Lync / Skype for Business audio call so that it receives video from a conference.

Default: disabled.

Allows an administrator to log in to the Management Node and Conferencing Nodes over SSH.

Default: enabled.

The start and end values for the range of ports (UDP and TCP) that all Conferencing Nodes use to send signaling (for H.323, H.245 and SIP).

Default: 40000–49999.

Choose which codecs to offer in audio/video negotiation (SDPs).

Some third-party systems can experience issues if they are sent a large SDP from Pexip Infinity. You can reduce the size of the SDP by disabling specific, unwanted codecs.

Default: all codecs are selected except AAC-LD128.

Whether to use OCSP when checking the validity of TLS certificates.

Off: OCSP checking is disabled.

On: An OCSP request will be sent to the URL specified in the TLS certificate.

Determines whether to verify the peer certificate for connections over SIP TLS.

Off: the peer certificate will be not be verified; all connections will be allowed.

Default: Off.

Access for external systems is over HTTPS by default. If this box is selected, access over HTTP is also permitted.
