About this task

Use this procedure to select video codecs that Avaya Aura® Web Gateway uses for SIP and WebRTC calls.

Procedure

  1. On the Avaya Aura® Web Gateway administration portal, navigate to Advanced > Media Settings > Video.
  2. In the SIP Video Codecs and WebRTC Video Codecs areas, drag and drop the codecs as required to rearrange them.
  3. To add SIP or WebRTC codecs to the list, select the codec that you want to add, and click Add.
  4. To remove SIP or WebRTC codecs from the list, select the codecs that you want to remove, and click Remove.
  5. In Call Maximum Video Bandwidth (kbps), do one of the following to disable video or modify the video bandwidth:
    • To disable video, select 0.

    • To modify the video bandwidth, select the appropriate value.

    Tip:

    For the Avaya Aura® Web Gateway to support 1020p HD video, this setting must be set to 1792 kbps or higher. You can select Custom to enter your own customized value.

    The bandwidth value specified will be the maximum allowed by the Avaya Aura® Web Gateway. If the bandwidth value specified in SDP or Avaya Aura® Device Services is lower than the Avaya Aura® Web Gateway value, then the system uses the lower value.
