PathNavigator: Deployment Guide

Overview The purpose of this paper is to describe the PathNavigator deployment architectures. PathNavigator is a Call Processing Server (CPS) for multimedia communications, primarily video communications. A CPS is a routing engine and management sub-system. PathNavigator is used to manage the call sessions between terminals, multipoint control units (MCU), and Gateways (GW), using both the H.323 and H.320 ITU communication protocols. PathNavigator is also used for generic tasks typically associated with H.323 Gatekeepers, such as name resolution, provisioning, and bandwidth policy management.
