IP Video Telephony Configuration
This topic provides an overview of how IP Video Telephony was configured for Cisco IP
Communications Release 5.1(1) testing. This topic does not include detailed installation and
configuration instructions. Rather, it is intended to provide you with guidance and serve as a reference
as you set up video devices in your IP telephony solution.
