Select Settings > Media > Media Profiles

Media Profiles specify the individual voice and fax compression codecs and their associated settings for inclusion into a Media List. Different codecs provide varying levels of compression, allowing the reduction of bandwidth requirements. Listed below are the media profiles of the voice codecs used for testing the SBC 2000:

Note: The Digit Relay Payload Type must be set to 97.

Signaling groups allow telephony channels to be grouped together for the purposes of routing and sharing configuration data. Calls are routed to signaling groups along wiht the location data used in Call Route selection. A signaling group also specifies the location from which Tone Tables and Action Sets are selected. For SIP, signaling groups specify protocol settings and link to server, media, and mapping tables.
