Disable a UM IP Gateway

 

Applies to: Exchange Server 2010 SP3, Exchange Server 2010 SP2

You can disable a Unified Messaging (UM) IP gateway. By default, when you create a UM IP gateway, the status of the UM IP gateway is enabled. However, after the UM IP gateway is created, you can disable the operation of the UM IP gateway by setting its status variable to disabled. After you disable the UM IP gateway, the IP gateway device with which it's associated no longer processes Unified Messaging incoming calls.
