Connection timing out

I am using Cisco Catalyst 2900 switches for my video-confrencing.  The connection times out at exactly 2 hours.  Can anyone let me know how to find out what my timeout value is set to?

The connection time out for video conferencing is usually a configuration in the video conference unit, not the switches.

I went through it with the tech and says that's not the case.  He beleives that it might be a network setting.
He's wrong.

I'll do some more digging.
The timeout is not on the switch. Its on a ASA or PIX firewall hiding somewhere in your network. Are you using a gatekeeper?

How do I locate the value of the timeout on my PIX firewall?
You didn't mention a VPN.

Is there a VPN involved?  What brand of video conferencing equipment do you have?
the command reads something like timeout h323 2:00:00 though I may not have got the exact syntax right. Its also the default setting, so you might have to change it.

I'm just using a Polycom VSX7000.

There is no VPN involved.

"the command reads something like timeout h323 2:00:00" What command are you talking about?
