A gatekeeper is a server that registers videoconference units and meeting rooms via a unique number/ID that may be used for direct calls to meeting rooms and meeting attendees. The number resembles a telephone number, e.g. 0045 10 660001, and every video conferencing unit and meeting room ideally has such a number. DeiC is running such a gatekeeper service which may be used by all video conference users at an institution under DeiC.

If the video conferencing units are behind a firewall, the firewall needs to be configured to allow incoming and outgoing trafic from 109.105.113.228 - 109.105.113.241.

Open for ports 1024-65535, if you want to avoid any problems during your calls and meetings.
