DESCRIPTION¶
The GNU Gatekeeper is an open-source project that implements a H.323 gatekeeper.
A H.323 gatekeeper controls all H.323 clients in its zone. It allows you,
among other things, to register devices, make calls, perform AAA
(Authentication, Authorization and Auditing), manage configurations at runtime
and traverse NAT.
OPTIONS¶
The behavior of the gatekeeper is determined through command line options and
the configuration file. Some command line options may override settings found
in the configuration file. For example, the option
-l
overrides the setting
“TimeToLive” in the configuration file. Almost every option has
a short and a long format, e.g.,
-c
is the
same as
--config
.
-h
--help
- Show all available options and quit the program.
-c
--config
filename
- Specify the configuration file to use.
--strict
- Strict configuration check (don't start with config errors)
-s
--section
section
- Specify which main section to use in the configuration file. The default
is [Gatekeeper::Main].
-l
--timetolive
n
- Specify the time-to-live timer (in seconds) for endpoint registration.
This overrides the setting “TimeToLive” in the configuration
file. A detailed explanation can be found in the manual.
-b
--bandwidth
n
- Specify the total bandwidth available for the gatekeeper. Without
specifying this option, bandwidth management is disabled by default.
--pid
filename
- Specify the pid file. Only valid for Unix version.
-u
--user
name
- Run the gatekeeper process as this user. Only valid for Unix
versions.
--core
n
- (Unix only) Enable writing core dump files when the application crashes. A
core dump file will not exceed n bytes in size. A special constant
“unlimited” may also be specified.
--mlock
- (Unix only) Lock GnuGk into memory to prevent it being swaped out.
Gatekeeper Mode¶
The options in this subsection override the settings in the [RoutedMode] section
of the configuration file.
-d
--direct
- Use direct endpoint call signaling.
-r
--routed
- Use gatekeeper routed call signaling.
-rr
--h245routed
- Use gatekeeper routed call signaling and H.245 control channel.
-o
--output
filename
- Write trace log to the specified file.
-t
--trace
- Set trace verbosity. The more
-t
you
add, the more verbose to output. For example, use
-ttttt
to set the trace level to
5.
