IPVideoTalk ID
GVC32xx client is a full-HD conferencing client. When users first attempt to connect the GVC32xx client to
the IPVT10 conferencing system, it gets registered with an auto-assigned IPVideoTalk ID, starting from the
IPVideoTalk ID “100”. This IPVideoTalk ID is a SIP account and when the GVC32xx connects with IPVT10
server, users could initialize conferences, make calls, join conferences with this IPVideoTalk ID on GVC32xx
client.
The following figure shows that the IPVideoTalk ID in the GVC32xx client is registered (The IPVideoTalk ID
is highlighted green):
