Detailed Description

The status variable for a UM IP gateway can be used to enable or disable call answering destined for the IP gateway. The Enable-UMIPGateway cmdlet enables a UM IP gateway in Active Directory by modifying its status variable.

After this task is completed, the UM IP gateway answers incoming calls and makes outgoing calls through the IP gateway or IP Private Branch eXchange (PBX).

You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although all parameters for this cmdlet are listed in this topic, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To see what permissions you need, see the "UM IP gateways" entry in the Unified Messaging Permissions topic.
