11 2 Introduction 1 Overview Catering to the needs of an ever-advancing market, the Coral VoIP is the latest in a series of Coral FlexiCom and Coral IPx products that utilize Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), designed to achieve maximum resource efficiency in an expanding organization. Businesses have already installed a company-wide data network. The challenge, however, is to integrate fully functional voice/telephony capabilities into these existing data networks, thus reaping the significant benefits available from combining voice and data communication. The Coral VoIP Advanced Communications Platform provides an integrated IP network while still maintaining the existing telecommunications network. IP technology is incorporated by using standard Coral stations (keysets, SLTs, and Wireless) along with the Coral IP station sets such as the FlexSet-IP 280S and the PC-based FlexIP SoftPhone. The Coral VoIP combines the full array of Coral functionality with all the flexibility of a LAN connection. Dedicated IP FlexSets can be connected wherever a network port is available, effectively eliminating the limitations previously imposed by geographical location. The IP-enabled FlexSet gives the employee working from home access to all the telephony features available in the workplace at the touch of a button - allowing true, unrestricted telecommuting. IP terminals such as the Coral Teleport and Coral Sentinel enable advanced IP connectivity at even the remotest office. Signalling and Voice media are supported by a Universal Gateway (UGW) Card and Media Gateway (MG) module, respectively for all IP stations. FlexSet-IP 280S calls to other IP hosts (i.e. peer-to-peer connections) do not use Coral voice multiplexing. Only signalling is sent from the Coral to the FlexSet-IP 280S via the UGW. On the other hand, FlexSet-IP 280S calls to any Coral system station do make use of the supporting Coral via the UGW and the MG module. Introduction 2 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 2-1

12 2 QSIG over IP The Coral supports QSIG specification for private network feature signaling between PABX systems. Using QSIG protocols, two or more separate exchanges may be linked together through ISDN facilities to form a single, unified logical system. In addition to QSIG over legacy ISDN lines, the Coral supports the QSIG protocol operating over IP. All Coral features that are available via the legacy QSIG systems are available using QSIG over IP. QSIG over IP has the additional advantage of true point-to-multipoint operation. Each UGW card can connect to numerous PBXs, enabling fully-integrated mesh network configurations, in addition to star or point-to-point configurations. QSIG over IP enables IP keysets to communicate directly with one another, with the Corals being employed simply to control signaling, thus freeing up resources for other traffic. Call forward and call transferring also operate by rerouting - cutting out the transferring party to minimize use of system resources. QSIG over IP makes use of higher compression rates than QSIG over digital lines in order to conserve bandwidth. QSIG over IP can be configured to use different compression rates according to voice quality/bandwidth considerations. FlexSet-IP 280S Media Coral conference calls (3-Way) and the Silent Monitor features require the use of a 3-Way port (8DRCM, 8DRCF or CNF card) in the Coral, and therefore are not a pure peer-to-peer IP connection. Also, calls to regular system stations are not peer-to-peer connections and require MG channels from the supporting Coral FlexiCom system. Coral VoIP enables Networking of Corals over an IP net Connecting IP keysets over the LAN/WAN (for a distributed operation) Connecting an IP keyset over the Internet for a work at home application Enhanced capabilities, including directory Remote office/soho Solutions Coral FlexSet-IP 280S Introduction Coral FlexiCom IP Set FlexIP SoftPhone Enterprise IP-Based Overall Network Solution 2-2 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

13 Target Audience of this Manual The Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual is designed for field use by Coral system service personnel. It provides all the necessary information for successful installation and maintenance of the Coral IP systems, and provides an overview of VoIP configuration and terminology. 2 Introduction Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 2-3

14 Introduction 2 2 VoIP Configuration A standard VoIP configuration, shown in Figure 2-1: VoIP Configuration, includes a number of the following components, in addition to the Coral FlexiCom or Coral IPx platform: UGW cards (with option MG modules) IP Stations (FlexSet-IP 280S, Coral FlexiCom IP Set) Coral Teleport (Telephony Gateway) for SLTs and Loop-Start/Ground-Start Trunks Network (LAN/WAN/etc.) Figure 2-1 VoIP Configuration Small / Remote Office SLTs ADSL Remote Office or Telecommuters Coral Teleport (Analog FXS) FlexSet-IP 280S PC PSTN FlexIP Softphone Internet via UGW Interface via UGW Interface FlexSet-IP 280S Router LAN SLT FlexSet SLT FlexSet FlexSet-IP 280S PC Coral Teleport (Analog FXS) PSTN Coral Teleport (Analog FXO) SLTs 2-4 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

15 3 VoIP Terminology ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) A technology for transmitting digital information at a high bandwidth on existing phone lines to homes and businesses. Unlike regular dial-up phone service, ADSL provides continuously-available, always on connection. ADSL is asymmetric in that it uses most of the channel to transmit downstream to the user and only a small part to receive information from the user. ADSL simultaneously accommodates analog (voice) information on the same line. ADSL is generally offered at downstream data rates from 512 Kbps to about 6 Mbps. Bridge Device A device interconnecting local area networks at the OSI Data Link Layer, filtering and forwarding frames according to media access control (MAC) addresses. (1) A device that connects two LANs. The LAN being connected can be alike or dissimilar. (2) A network device that selectively determines the appropriate segment to which it should send the signal. (3) The bridge performs two main functions: Forwarding & Filtering. Broadband Wideband technology capable of supporting voice, video and data, possibly using multiple channels. CA (Call Agent) A device that manages call control in an MGCP model Voice over IP network. CIR (Committed Information Rate) In frame relay networks, a CIR is a bandwidth (expressed in bits per second) associated with a logical connection in a permanent virtual circuit (PVC). Frame relay networks are digital networks in which different logical connections share the same physical path and some logical connections are given higher bandwidths than others. For example, a connection conveying a high proportion of video signals (which require a high bandwidth) could be set up for certain workstations in a company (or on a larger network) and other connections requiring less bandwidth could be set up for all other workstations. Using statistical multiplexing, frame relay assemblers and dissemblers (FRADs), the devices that interconnect to the frame relay network, manage the logical connections so that, for example, those with the video signals (and higher CIRs) get more use of the paths. Because the CIR is defined in software, the network's mix of traffic bandwidths can be redefined in a relatively short amount of time. Introduction 2 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 2-5

16 Compression CODEC Coding/Decoding. Used to convert voice signals into IP packets and back again. CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Checking) A method of checking for errors in data that has been transmitted on a communications link. A sending device applies a 16- or 32-bit polynomial to a block of data that is to be transmitted and appends the resulting cyclic redundancy code (CRC) to the block. The receiving end applies the same polynomial to the data and compares its result with the result appended by the sender. If they agree, the data has been received successfully. If not, the sender can be notified to resend the block of data. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Enables individual computers on an IP network to extract their TCP/IP configurations from a server (the 'DHCP server') or servers, in particular, servers that have no exact information about the individual computers until they request the information. The overall purpose of this is to reduce the work necessary to administer a large IP network DHCP effectively eliminates communication and configuration problems resulting from incorrect information, while reducing administration overheads. DNS (Domain Name System) The method by which Internet addresses in mnemonic form such as are converted into the equivalent numeric IP address such as The DNS is a distributed database used by TCP/IP applications to map between these hostnames and IP addresses, and to provide electronic mail routing information. Each site (university department, campus, company, or department within a company, for example) maintains its own database of information and runs a server program that other systems across the Internet can query. The DNS provides the protocol which allows clients and servers to communicate with each other. DCE Introduction 2 Data Communication Equipment, includes: router, bridge, UGW, etc. DTE Data Terminal Equipment, includes: computer, printer, server, FlexSet-IP 280S, etc. 2-6 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

17 Enterprise Network An information infrastructure, often combining private and public facilities, to cover all of the locations operated by a single company or corporate enterprise with a single communications fabric. Ethernet A local area network that connects devices like computers, printers and terminals. Ethernet operates over twisted-pair or coaxial cable at speeds of 10 or 100 Mbps. Gateway Gateways are points of entrance and exit from a communications network. Viewed as a physical entity, a gateway is that node that translates between two otherwise incompatible networks or network segments. Gateways perform code and protocol conversion to facilitate traffic between data highways of differing architecture. Gateway is a device that performs an application layer conversion of information from one protocol stack to another. An older term referring to a routing device. For example: A Coral FlexiCom system requiring a connection to the Internet (TCP/IP). The PCM information is first sent to the UGW card which converts the information to TCP/IP. Internet Address Also known as an IP address. This is a 32-bit hardware-independent address assigned to hosts using the TCP/IP protocol suite. IP (Internet Protocol) A networking protocol for providing a connectionless service to the higher transport protocol. It is responsible for discovering and maintaining topology information and for routing packets across homogeneous networks. Combined with TCP, it is commonly known as the TCP/IP platform. IP Address An address that uniquely identifies each host on a network or Internet. A unique IP address is required for each host and network component that communicates using TCP/IP. Each IP address includes a Network ID and a Host ID. Network ID - identifies the systems that are located on the same physical network bounded by IP routers. Host ID - identifies the host within the network. Example: Introduction 2 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 2-7

18 Addressing Guidelines: Network ID cannot be is reserved for loopback functions. Network ID and host ID cannot be 255 (all bits set to 1). 255 is a broadcast address. Network ID and host ID cannot be 0 (all bits set to 0). 0 means this network only. Host ID must be unique to the network. IP Telephony The transmission of voice over an Internet Protocol (IP) network. Also called Voice over IP (VoIP), IP telephony allows users to make phone calls over the Internet, intranets, or private LANs and WANs that use the TCP/IP protocol. LAN (Local Area Network) A network that interconnects devices over a geographically small area, typically in one building or part of a building. The most popular LAN type is Ethernet, a 10 Mbps standard that works with 10BaseT, 10Base2, or 10Base5 cables. MAC (Media Access Control) A protocol that defines the way workstations gain access to transmission media, most widely used in reference to LANs. For IEEE LANs, the MAC layer is the lower sublayer of the data link layer protocol. Primary functions: Controls access to shared media. Handles the network topologies. MAC address (Physical Address) The MAC address is a unique 6 byte address coded on every: network adapter card (NIC), FlexSet-IP 280S, UGW card, MG module, etc. Introduction 2 MG (Media Gateway) Module A media gateway is any device, such as a circuit switch, IP gateway, or channel bank that converts data from the format required for one type of network to the format required for another. In the Coral environment, the MG module is a daughterboard that sits on the UGW card and enables communication between different media, for example between FlexSet-IP 280S keysets and standard (non-ip) keysets or SLT phones. 2-8 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

19 MGCP (Media Gateway Control Protocol) One of a few proposed control and signal standards to compete with the older H.323 standard for the conversion of audio signals carried on telephone circuits (PSTN) to data packets carried over the Internet or other packet networks. The MGCP simplifies standards for VoIP technology by eliminating the need for complex, processor-intense IP telephony devices, thus simplifying and lowering the cost of these terminals. Network (1) A communication network is a collection of communication channels. (2) An interconnected group of nodes. (3) A series of points, nodes, or stations connected by communications channels; the collection of equipment through which connections are made between data stations. Network Layer A layer in the OSI reference model. The network layer provides address resolution and routing protocols. Address resolution enables the network layer to determine a unique network address for a node. Routing protocols allow data to flow between networks and reach their proper destination. Examples of network layer protocols are Address Resolution Protocol (ARP), Datagram Delivery Protocol (DDP), Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP), Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP), Internet Protocol (IP), Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX) and Packet Layer Protocol (PLP). NMS (Network Management System) The system that controls network configuration, fault and performance management, and diagnostic analysis. Node A point of interconnection to a network. Peer-to-Peer Connection A pure IP-to-IP direct connection between two IP hosts (e.g. FlexSet-IP 280S to FlexSet-IP 280S) over the LAN, involving no intervention from the MG module. Introduction 2 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 2-9

20 2 PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) Provides a standard means of encapsulating data packets sent over a single-channel WAN link. It is the standard WAN encapsulation protocol for the inter operability of bridges and routers over synchronous or asynchronous circuits. QoS (Quality of Service) On the Internet and in other networks, QoS is the idea that transmission rates, error rates, and other characteristics can be measured, improved, and, to some extent, guaranteed in advance. QoS is of particular concern for the continuous transmission of high-bandwidth video and multimedia information. Transmitting this kind of content dependably is difficult in public networks using ordinary best effort protocols. Using the Internet's Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP), packets passing through a gateway host can be expedited based on policy and reservation criteria arranged in advance. Using ATM, which also lets a company or user preselect a level of quality in terms of service, QoS can be measured and guaranteed in terms of the average delay at a gateway, the variation in delay in a group of cells (cells are 53-byte transmission units), cell losses, and the transmission error rate. RJ-45 Connector (Registered Jack-45) A telephone connector that accommodates up to eight wires. RJ-45 plugs and sockets are used in Ethernet and Token Ring devices. Router Device An interconnection device that connects individual LANs. Unlike bridges, which logically connect at OSI layer 2, routers provide logical paths at OSI layer 3. Like bridges, remote sites can be connected using routers over dedicated or switched lines to create WANs. Routers are responsible for tracking which networks or segments exist and how they can be reached. T router determines the optimal path along which network traffic should be forwarded. Routing Introduction The process of selecting the most efficient circuit path for a message. The process of finding a path for each packet, to a destination host Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

21 RTP (Real-Time Transport Protocol) An Internet protocol standard that specifies a way for programs to manage the real-time transmission of multimedia data over either unicast or multicast network services. RTP supports video conferences with multiple, geographically dispersed participants and is commonly used in Internet telephony applications. RTP does not in itself guarantee real-time delivery of multimedia data (since this is dependent on network characteristics); it does, however, provide the wherewithal to manage the data as it arrives to best effect. RTP combines its data transport with a control protocol (RTCP), which makes it possible to monitor data delivery for large multicast networks. Monitoring allows the receiver to detect if there is any packet loss and to compensate for any delay jitter. Both protocols work independently of the underlying Transport layer and Network layer protocols. Information in the RTP header tells the receiver how to reconstruct the data and describes how the codec bit streams are packetized. Switch Device A device interconnecting local area networks at the OSI Data Link Layer. (1) A connectivity device that can perform bridging functions faster than a bridge. (2) Increases usable bandwidth. (3) Overcomes traffic saturation problems. Subnet Mask A method for determining the network ID in the IP address. A 32 bit value that is used to distinguish the network ID from the host ID. All bits that correspond to the Network ID are set to 1(255). All bits that correspond to the Host ID are set to 0. Examples: IP address: Subnet Mask: Network ID: Host ID: x.y TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) A protocol platform, known also as the Internet protocol suite, that combines both TCP and IP. Widely used applications, such as Telnet, FTP and SMTP, interface to TCP/IP. Introduction 2 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 2-11

22 2 Terminal Authentication Terminal authentication is performed at registration (initialization) of the FlexSet-IP 280S terminal. Each terminal has a unique MAC address implanted at manufacturing time, which is reported to the system at registration where it is compared against a list in the database of the Coral. Only IP terminals known to the Coral will be able to register with the system. TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) Protocol used when transferring files over the Internet. This protocol is used to download and install UGW and FlexSet-IP 280S software upgrades from the internet. UGW (Universal Gateway) The Universal Gateway card provides the Coral with the ability to connect to the IP World. All Coral IP stations (FlexSet-IP 280S) and Coral Teleport (telephony gateways for analog SLTs and Loop-Start/Ground-Start trunks) receive their Coral signalling from the UGW card. See Chapter 3 for details. ULI (UGW Line Interface) A daughterboard installed on the UGW card layout B, enabling the UGW card to connect to the IP world. The ULI provides two connectors at the front panel of the UGW. This card will be discontinued as soon as the ULI-1 becomes available. ULI-1 A daughterboard installed on the UGW card layout B, enabling one connector at the front panel of the UGW. UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) Introduction A popular type of cable that consists of two unshielded wires twisted around each other. Due to its low cost, UTP cabling is used extensively for local-area networks (LANs) and telephone connections. UTP cabling does not offer as high bandwidth or as good protection from interference as coaxial or fiber optic cables, but it is less expensive and easier to work with Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

23 VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) A virtual (or logical) LAN is a local area network with a definition that maps workstations on some other basis than geographic location (for example, by department, type of user, or primary application). The virtual LAN controller can change or add workstations and manage load balancing and bandwidth allocation more easily than with a physical picture of the LAN. Network management software keeps track of relating the virtual picture of the local area network with the actual physical picture. VoIP (Voice over IP) Set of facilities for managing the delivery of voice information using the Internet Protocol (IP). Voice information is sent in digital form in discrete packets over the Internet instead of in analog form over the public switched telephone network (PSTN). A major advantage of VoIP is that it avoids the tolls charged by ordinary telephone service. VPN (Virtual Private Network) A restricted network that uses public wires to connect nodes. A VPN provides a way to encapsulate, or tunnel, private data cheaply, reliably, and securely through a public network, usually the Internet. WAN (Wide Area Network) A geographically dispersed telecommunications network. The term distinguishes a broader telecommunication structure from a local area network (LAN). A wide area network may be privately owned or rented, but the term usually connotes the inclusion of public (shared user) networks. 2 Introduction Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 2-13

35 3 UGW, UGW-E, PUGW Universal Gateway Card for Coral FlexiCom 300, 400, 5000, 6000 and Coral IPx 800, 3000, Overview The UGW, UGW-E and PUGW (herein referred to as the "UGW") cards provide the Coral FlexiCom 300, 400, 5000, 6000 and Coral IPx 800, 3000, 4000 with the ability to connect to the IP World. All Coral IP stations (FlexSet-IP 280S, FlexIP SoftPhone, SIP) and External Telephony Gateways (Coral Teleport for analog SLTs and Loop-Start/Ground-Start trunks) receive their Coral signalling from the UGW card. The UGW is the main Coral gateway to services offered on the enterprise network. Voice calls maintained on the UGW, although controlled by the Coral, are carried out entirely on the network when both ports involved are IP ports, therefore allowing heavy traffic configurations. The Coral supports a multitude of UGW cards with load sharing and redundancy capabilities for both media and signalling data streams. The UGW is a Coral integrated gateway for IP phones, trunks and keysets (SLTs and trunks require a Coral Teleport). Each UGW card provides the capacity to drive up to 240 Coral IP ports, regardless of their physical location, and provides full Coral services to these sets. Certain Coral features require the intervention of a Media Gateway (MG or MRC, herein referred to as the "MG") module, a daughterboard located on the UGW card itself in piggyback fashion. The MG module provides media channels used to convert PCM calls to IP Packets and vice versa. Media channels are also needed when one of the calling parties is not an IP host. No media channels are needed for pure IP-to-IP connections (direct-connects). See Figure 3-1 for an illustration of IP-to-IP connections versus non IP-to-IP connections in the Coral.

Redundancy SLT via UGW Interface Ethernet switch Via MG FlexSet-IP 280S IP to non-ip connections FlexSet-IP 280S LAN / WAN Router IP to IP connection SLT over IP IP keysets may be defined with ten IP addresses Primary Call Agent (CA) and Secondary Call Agent. Upon initialization, each IP keyset attempts to connect to one of the UGW cards in the Coral according to these keyset definitions. The IP Keyset first attempts to register via the Primary CA; if there is no successful response a toggling mechanism is invoked and the IP Keyset attempts to connect via the Secondary CA. In case of failure the keyset toggles back to the primary and so on. SLTs and trunks also make use of the UGW s redundancy operation. LAN FlexIP Softphone Coral Teleport FXS 3-2 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

37 Load Sharing Upon successful initialization, the Coral assigns FlexSet-IPs, SoftPhones, SIP, SLTs and trunks to a UGW card. The card is selected by rotation, with each new IP Keyset, SLT and trunk being registered with a different UGW from the required signaling group, providing that card has enough resources to support it. This may not necessarily be one of the cards defined in the Primary or Secondary CA. If an IP keyset, SLT or trunk was previously registered in one UGW card, the system will first attempt to assign an alternative card for that port. If at any stage one UGW card becomes inactive, the ports connected to it are reassigned to another UGW.

51 3 Installing the UGW Card Before performing the following steps to install the UGW card, ensure you read and understand the whole chapter thoroughly. Circuit cards contain static sensitive circuitry and may be damaged or destroyed by electro-static discharge (ESD). Always wear the static dissipating wrist strap connected to the system cabinet or card cage when handling circuit cards. Hold circuit cards by their edges and avoid touching contact surfaces. Handle with care and do not drop. Installation Procedure 1. Configure the PI database for default UGW cards (see PI Database Programming - UGW General on page 3-19) 2. Unpack the UGW card (see Unpacking on page 3-21) 3. Connect the MG or MRC module (if required) (see MG/MRC Module on page 3-22) 4. Reposition the ULI/ULI-1 (if required) (see ULI / ULI-1 Module (for UGW Layout B/B1 and UGW-E only) on page 3-27) 5. Insert the card into the Coral (see Inserting the UGW Card on page 3-30) 6. Connect the UGW to the LAN (see Network (LAN) Connection on page 3-32) 7. Configure the PI database for this UGW card (if required) (see PI Database Programming - UGW Card on page 3-36) 8. For system diagnostics, refer to the LED indication section later in this chapter (see LED Indication on page 3-40) 9. If you wish to upgrade the UGW software, refer to the upgrade section later in this chapter (see Upgrading the UGW Software on page 3-43) UGW, UGW-E, PUGW Universal Gateway Card for Coral FlexiCom 300, 400, 5000, 6000 and Coral IPx 800, 3000, Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 3-17

52 3 4 PI Database Programming - UGW General The PI enables configuration of the UGW card parameters whether a card is currently physically installed or not yet installed: UGW, UGW-E, PUGW Universal Gateway Card for Coral FlexiCom 300, 400, 5000, 6000 and Coral IPx 800, 3000, 4000 To define UGW parameters before physically installing a UGW card, enter the IP Gateways - Default Configuration branch. The parameter definitions in this branch will apply to all UGW cards installed in the future. After a UGW card is physically installed, its parameter definitions must be changed in order to customize the individual card. These changes are made in the IP Gateways - Current Configuration branch (see PI Database Programming - UGW Card on page 3-36). Before inserting the UGW card into the Coral, the following general parameters may be defined in the PI. These parameters define the default UGW configuration; each UGW card that is subsequently installed will initialize with these parameter definitions by default, which can subsequently be edited per individual card. The IP addresses for the following parameters should be obtained from the System Administrator on the installation premises. Before continuing, ensure that you have configured the relevant parameters in VoIP Configuration PI Programming on page IP Gateways: Default Configuration (Route: IP,0,0) SIGNALLING: SUBNET_MASK [0] Define the default Subnet Mask address for UGW cards (signalling only) in this system. SIGNALLING: DEFAULT_ROUTER_ADDRESS [1] Define the default router address for UGW (signalling only) cards in this system. MEDIA: SUBNET_MASK [2] Define the default Subnet Mask address for MG modules in this system. MEDIA: DEFAULT_ROUTER_ADDRESS [3] Define the default router address for MG modules in this system. CAPACITY: MEDIA_CHANNELS [4] Define the default number of the media channels (provided by the MG module) that the UGW card is required to support Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

53 CAPACITY: KEYSET [5] Define the default number of IP keysets supported by each UGW card. CAPACITY: SLT Define the default number of SLT Keysets supported by each UGW card. CAPACITY: CAPACITY: LGS Define the default number of Loop/Ground Start trunks supported by each UGW card. NET Define the default number of NET signalling resources supported by each UGW card.

Inspect all parts for damage. 3. Report any damage to the carrier immediately. 4. If it is necessary to make a damage claim for the carrier, do not move the shipping carton until it has been examined by a representative of the carrier. 5. Dispose of empty cartons in accord with local regulations. Shipping Container Contents The following items should be present in the shipping container containing the UGW card: One UGW card One ULI/ULI-1 module (installed on UGW layout B/B1 and UGW-E only) One MG or MRC module (optional - sold and packaged separately): MG/MRC pack contains: four (4) spacers eight (8) screws eight (8) spring washers 3-20 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

55 6 MG/MRC Module Description Table 3-2 Modules MG/MRC Certain Coral features require the intervention of a Media Gateway (MG) module. The MG module is a daughterboard installed on the UGW card. The MG provides media channels used to convert PCM calls to IP Packets, thereby converting standard Coral talk into Internet Protocol talk. Media channels are also used when one of the calling parties is not an IP host; they are not needed for pure peer-to-peer (IP-IP) connections. There are three MG module families: MRC-8, 16, 32 and 64 (Figure 3-12) for PUGW MG-24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 (Figure 3-13) for UGW-E MG-15, 30, and 60 [discontinued] (Figure 3-14) Table 3-2: MG/MRC Modules shows the compatibility of MG modules with the available UGW layout types and versions.

Each MRC module has a unique 6 byte MAC address visible on the PUGW card label. The MAC address for the MG/MRC module must be entered into the Coral PI Database (see IP-Gateways: Current Configuration branch (Route: IP,0,1) on page 3-36) in order to initialize this module. Once the MAC address is defined in the Coral Database, its RJ-45 cable should not be removed or the UGW will only function on a limited level (i.e. only signalling).

60 3 7 ULI / ULI-1 Module (for UGW Layout B/B1 and UGW-E only) If you are using a UGW card Layout A, you may skip this section. Description UGW, UGW-E, PUGW Universal Gateway Card for Coral FlexiCom 300, 400, 5000, 6000 and Coral IPx 800, 3000, 4000 The ULI and ULI-1 (UGW Line Interface) modules are daughterboards installed on the UGW card (Layout B, B1and UGW-E only, see Table 3-1 on page 3-4). The modules enable the UGW card to communicate with the LAN via RJ-45 connectors on the front panel and the backplane. UGW cards Layout B are installed with either a ULI or a ULI-1 module as standard. UGW card Layout B can be installed in Coral FlexiCom or Coral IPx systems. The ULI/ULI-1 must be installed on the UGW in one of two positions according to the Coral type. The ULI is used for UGW cards with two network connectors, Media and Signalling, that provide connection to the MG module and UGW functions, respectively. The ULI-1 (ULI with 1 connector) is identical in function to the ULI module. It differs only in that its connection contains a data switch that combines the Signalling and Media inputs into one output. As a result, it is used for cards that have just one RJ-45 UGW connector, positioned either at the front or the rear, as per the ULI. For connection to Coral FlexiCom 300, 400, 5000, 6000 and IPx 4000 cabinets, the ULI/ULI-1 is placed towards the front panel, thus keeping the RJ-45 connectors at the front. To connect to the Coral IPx 800, 3000 cabinets, the ULI/ULI-1 is attached towards the rear panel, enabling the RJ-45 connectors to be attached from the back panel. Adjusting the ULI / ULI-1 for Coral IPx 800, 3000 Cabinets The UGW card is factory-installed with the ULI/ULI-1. By default, the ULI/ULI-1 unit is positioned on the front of the UGW card, readily available for front installation. If you are installing the UGW in a Coral IPx (4000) and Coral FlexiCom (300, 400, 5000 and 6000), you may skip to the next section. When installing the UGW card in Coral IPx (800, 3000) cabinets, the ULI/ULI-1 should be fitted on the rear of the UGW card towards the rear panel (see Figure 3-7 and Figure 3-5) so that the connection to the UGW may be from the rear panel of the Coral IPx (800, 3000) cabinet Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

61 Reposition the ULI/ULI-1 unit in the following way: Place an anti-static sheet (the card s plastic shipping bag will suffice) over a desk or table top and lay the UGW card flat, over the anti-static material. 1. Unscrew the three M3X6 type Phillips screws securing the ULI/ULI-1 on the component side of the UGW and put them aside in a safe place. 2. Gently lift the ULI/ULI-1 module from its place. 3. Turn the ULI/ULI degrees into the designated position (see Figure 3-15: Moving the ULI/ULI-1 on UGW Layout B/B1 and UGW-E). 4. Carefully align the multi-pin plugs on the ULI/ULI-1 with the mating connectors on the UGW card. Verify that the pins of the ULI/ULI-1 plugs are aligned with the pin holes of the UGW connectors. 5. Gently but firmly, press the ULI/ULI-1 onto the UGW connectors until the ULI/ULI-1 rests on the metal spacers. A slight resistance should be felt as the multi-pin connectors engage. 6. Secure the ULI/ULI-1 card in place by inserting the three screws into the spacers until snug and tightening.

63 8 Inserting the UGW Card General The UGW card can be installed in any Coral FlexiCom peripheral or shared service slot, or any Coral IPx peripheral slot. More than one UGW card can be installed in the system, enabling card redundancy and load sharing (as described on page 3-2). The UGW card Layout A and Layout B with ULI employs two modular RJ-45 LAN connectors. One connector is used to provide the UGW signalling and another for the MG channels to the LAN. The UGW card Layout B1 with ULI-1 employs just one modular RJ-45 LAN connector, used to provide both the UGW signalling and the MG channels to the LAN. Layout B1 with ULI-1 requires only one connector, as shown in Figure 3-6. UGW-E requires only one connector, as shown in Figure 3-5. PUGW requires only one connector, as shown in Figure 3-3. The UGW comes in five layouts, as shown in Figure 3-11 through Figure 3-3. UGW layout B/B1, UGW-E and PUGW are compatible with all Coral cabinets, including Coral IPx 800 and 3000 cabinets rear panel connections. UGW Card Replacement One UGW card can be replaced with another UGW card without regard to the number of its signalling and media resources (requires inputting the MAC address of the new MG into the PI). If the number of signalling resources of the new card is less than on the previous card, the excess keysets are automatically reverted to undefined.

64 3 Inserting the UGW Card To insert the UGW card into the Coral, you must perform the following steps: 1. Select any empty peripheral or shared service slot (for Coral IPx installations, use a peripheral port only). UGW, UGW-E, PUGW Universal Gateway Card for Coral FlexiCom 300, 400, 5000, 6000 and Coral IPx 800, 3000, Insert the UGW into the Coral cage, according to the card installation procedures described in section 10.1 of the Coral Installation Procedure and Hardware Reference Manual. 3. Verify that the system diagnostic LED on the front panel lights up and then extinguishes. This LED turns on to indicate card initialization and then goes out upon successful completion. During normal operation, the system diagnostic LED should be off. If it remains lit or flashes, refer to LED Indication on page If an MG is installed on the UGW, the MG green LED should also be permanently lit once the card has been installed. If the LED is not lit, remove the UGW and reinsert Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

73 11 LED Indication System Diagnostic LED Table 3-5 System Diagnostic LED Indications The UGW card is equipped with a system diagnostic LED on the front panel, near the top of the card. This LED can assume one of three states of illumination: OFF, ON, or FLASHING. The illumination state of the LED indicates the card operating condition. Table 3-5: System Diagnostic LED Indications lists the indication provided by each of the three LED states. During normal operation the card diagnostic LED should be extinguished. However, the LED routinely illuminates steadily whenever power is first applied to the system, the entire system is initializing, or the card is inserted into a card slot. The LED remains illuminated steadily until the card receives a card database from the system. LED Constantly Lit If the LED stays lit for more than two or three minutes, a problem may exist within the card. The most likely problem is a conflict with the system database (for example, the IP address was not entered in the PI), although it also may be an actual malfunction of the card circuitry. LED State Indication Off Card is operating properly. Steadily lit - ON Card has not received a card database from system. Flashing Diagnostic test failed by circuitry on card. The system database can prevent the UGW card from initializing in several cases. The STATUS field in the Card List branch (Route: CLIS) shows any one of the following messages: UGW, UGW-E, PUGW Universal Gateway Card for Coral FlexiCom 300, 400, 5000, 6000 and Coral IPx 800, 3000, Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 3-39

75 No LAN Connection The UGW requires a signalling LAN connection in order to function - if the signalling LAN connection is interrupted, the UGW card will cease to function. When an MG module is installed on the UGW and its MAC address has already been entered into the PI database, then it also requires a LAN connection at all times. If the media LAN connection is severed, the UGW card will cease to function. UGW Layout B1 with ULI-1 requires only one LAN connections for both signalling and Media. In either of these cases, the Card List branch (Route: CLIS) reports NO_CARD. Restore the LAN connection/s for the card to continue functioning properly. LED Flashing The Coral continuously runs diagnostic routines to monitor the performance and integrity of its database and circuitry. When the circuitry on the UGW card fails to perform as expected, the system instructs the UGW card to flash its system diagnostic LED. If, on a subsequent execution of the same routine that reported a failure, the circuitry passes the test, the UGW card is instructed to extinguish the LED. Occasionally, circuitry may fail a diagnostic test, even though it is not truly defective. If a system diagnostic LED is observed flashing but no problem is apparent, wait 60 minutes and check the card again. If the LED is no longer flashing, the test failure was probably insignificant. If the flashing continues however, the UGW card is likely to be malfunctioning, even if no problem can be identified. MG Green LED The green LED below the main diagnostic LED is lit if a MG module is installed and running. If the LED is not lit, remove the UGW and reinsert. If there is no MG module installed, this light will remain unlit. LED on LAN Connectors The green LEDs situated on each LAN connector is lit green to indicate a successful LAN connection. If a green LED is not lit, ensure its LAN cable is properly connected. For more information on green/yellow LEDs, turn to page 3-6.

77 4 UGWipx, UGW-Eipx, PUGWipx Universal Gateway Card for Coral FlexiCom 200 and Coral IPx Overview The UGWipx, UGW-Eipx and PUGWipx (herein referred to as the "UGWipx") cards provide the Coral FlexiCom 200 and Coral IPx 500 with the ability to connect to the IP World. All Coral IP stations (FlexSet-IP 280S, FlexIP SoftPhone, SIP) and External Telephony Gateways (Coral Teleport for analog SLTs and Loop-Start/Ground-Start trunks) receive their Coral signalling from the UGWipx card. The UGWipx is the main Coral gateway to services offered on the enterprise network. Voice calls maintained on the UGWipx, although controlled by the Coral, are carried out entirely on the network when both ports involved are IP ports, therefore allowing heavy traffic configurations. The Coral supports a multitude of UGWipx cards with load sharing and redundancy capabilities for both media and signalling data streams. The UGWipx is a Coral internal gateway for IP phones, trunks and keysets (SLTs and trunks require a Coral Teleport). Each UGWipx card provides the capacity to drive up to 240 Coral IP ports, regardless of their physical location, and provides full Coral services to these sets. Certain Coral features require the intervention of a Media Gateway (MG or MRC, herein referred to as the "MG") module, a daughterboard located on the UGWipx card itself in piggyback fashion. The MG module provides media channels used to convert PCM calls to IP Packets and vice versa. Media channels are also needed when one of the calling parties is not an IP host. No media channels are needed for pure IP-to-IP connections (direct-connects). See Figure 4-1 for an illustration of IP-to-IP connections versus non IP-to-IP connections in the Coral. The UGWipx is a special compact form-factor card for use in the Coral FlexiCom 200 and Coral IPx 500 system only. This card incorporates technology to reduce its size and cost while maintaining port capacity.

Redundancy SLT Ethernet switch Via MG IP to non-ip connections FlexSet-IP 280S SLT over IP IP keysets may be defined with ten IP addresses Primary Call Agent (CA) and Secondary Call Agent. Upon initialization, each IP keyset attempts to connect to one of the UGWipx cards in the Coral according to these keyset definitions. The IP Keyset first attempts to register via the Primary CA; if there is no successful response a toggling mechanism is invoked and the IP Keyset attempts to connect via the Secondary CA. In case of failure the keyset toggles back to the primary and so on. SLTs and trunks also make use of the UGW s redundancy operation. LAN FlexIP Softphone Coral Teleport FXS 4-2 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

79 Load Sharing Upon successful initialization, the Coral assigns FlexSet-IPs, SoftPhones, SLTs and trunks to a UGWipx card. The card is selected by rotation, with each new IP Keyset, SLT and trunk being registered with a different UGWipx from the required signaling group, providing that card has enough resources to support it. This may not necessarily be one of the cards defined in the Primary or Secondary CA. If an IP keyset, SLT or trunk was previously registered in one UGWipx card, the system will first attempt to assign an alternative card for that port. If at any stage one UGWipx card becomes inactive, the ports connected to it reset and are reassigned to another UGW card. 4 UGWipx, UGW-Eipx, PUGWipx Universal Gateway Card for Coral FlexiCom 200 and Coral IPx 500 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 4-3

85 3 Installing the UGWipx Card Before performing the following steps to install the UGWipx card, ensure you read and understand the whole chapter thoroughly. Circuit cards contain static sensitive circuitry and may be damaged or destroyed by electro-static discharge (ESD). Always wear the static dissipating wrist strap connected to the system cabinet or card cage when handling circuit cards. Hold circuit cards by their edges and avoid touching contact surfaces. Handle with care and do not drop. Installation Procedure 1. Configure the PI database for default UGW cards (see PI Database Programming - UGW General on page 4-10) 2. Unpack the UGWipx card (see Unpacking on page 4-12) 3. Connect the MG or MRC module (if required) (see MG/MRC Module on page 4-13) 4. Insert the card into the Coral (see Inserting the UGWipx Card on page 4-18) 5. Connect the UGW to the LAN (see Network (LAN) Connection on page 4-20) 6. Configure the PI database for this UGWipx card (if required) (see PI Database Programming - UGW Card on page 4-21) 7. For system diagnostics, refer to the LED indication section later in this chapter (see LED Indication on page 4-25) 8. If you wish to upgrade the UGW software, refer to the upgrade section later in this chapter (see Upgrading the UGWipx Software on page 4-28) UGWipx, UGW-Eipx, PUGWipx Universal Gateway Card for Coral FlexiCom 200 and Coral IPx Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 4-9

86 4 PI Database Programming - UGW General The PI enables configuration of the UGWipx card parameters whether a card is currently physically installed or not yet installed: To define UGW parameters before physically installing a UGWipx card, enter the IP Gateways - Default Configuration branch. The parameter definitions in this branch will apply to all UGWipx cards installed in the future. UGWipx, UGW-Eipx, PUGWipx Universal Gateway Card for Coral FlexiCom 200 and Coral IPx After a UGWipx card is physically installed, its parameter definitions must be changed in order to customize the individual card. These changes are made in the IP Gateways - Current Configuration branch (see PI Database Programming - UGW Card on page 4-21). Before Inserting the UGWipx Card into the Card Cage Before inserting the UGWipx card into the Coral, the following general parameters may be defined in the PI. These parameters define the default UGW configuration; each UGWipx card that is subsequently installed will initialize with these parameter definitions by default, which can subsequently be edited per individual card. The IP addresses for the following parameters should be obtained from the Data Network Administrator or IT Manager on the installation premises. Before continuing, ensure that you have configured the relevant parameters in VoIP Configuration PI Programming on page IP Gateways: Default Configuration (Route: IP,0,0) SIGNALLING: SUBNET_MASK [0] Define the default Subnet Mask address for UGW cards in this system.

89 6 MG/MRC Module Description Table 4-2 Modules MG/MRC Certain Coral features require the intervention of a Media Gateway (MG) module. The MG module is a daughterboard installed on the UGW card. The MG provides media channels used to convert PCM calls to IP Packets, thereby converting standard Coral talk into Internet Protocol talk. Media channels are also used when one of the calling parties is not an IP host; they are not needed for pure peer-to-peer (IP-IP) connections. There are three MG module families: MRC-8, 16, 32 and 64 (Figure 4-5) for PUGWipx MG-24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 (Figure 4-6) for UGW-Eipx MG-15, 30, and 60 [discontinued] (Figure 4-7) for UGWipx and UGW-Eipx Table 4-2: MG/MRC Modules shows the compatibility of MG modules with the available UGWipx layout types and versions.

Each MG module has a unique 6 byte MAC address visible on the card label. Each MRC module has a unique 6 byte MAC address visible on the PUGWipx card label. This MAC address must be entered into the Coral PI Database (see IP-Gateways: Current Configuration branch (Route: IP,0,1) on page 4-21) in order to initialize this module. Once the MAC address is defined in the Coral Database, its RJ-45 cable should not be removed or the UGW will only function on a limited level (i.e. only signalling).

101 10 LED Indication System Diagnostic LED Table 4-5 System Diagnostic LED Indications The UGWipx card is equipped with a system diagnostic LED on the front panel, near the top of the card. This LED can assume one of three states of illumination: OFF, ON, or FLASHING. The illumination state of the LED indicates the card operating condition. Table 4-5: System Diagnostic LED Indications lists the indication provided by each of the three LED states. During normal operation the card diagnostic LED should be extinguished. However, the LED routinely illuminates steadily whenever power is first applied to the system, the entire system is initializing, or the card is inserted into a card slot. The LED remains illuminated steadily until the card receives a card database from the system. LED Constantly Lit If the LED stays lit for more than two or three minutes, a problem may exist within the card. The most likely problem is a conflict with the system database (for example, the IP address was not entered in the PI), although it also may be an actual malfunction of the card circuitry. LED State Indication Off Card is operating properly. Steadily lit - ON Card has not received a card database from system. Flashing Diagnostic test failed by circuitry on card. The system database can prevent the UGWipx card from initializing in several cases. The STATUS field in the Card List branch (Route: CLIS) shows any one of the following messages: UGWipx, UGW-Eipx, PUGWipx Universal Gateway Card for Coral FlexiCom 200 and Coral IPx Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 4-25

103 No LAN Connection The UGWipx requires a LAN connection in order to function - if the LAN connection is interrupted, the UGWipx card will cease to function. In this case, the Card List branch (Route: CLIS) reports NO_CARD. Restore the LAN connection for the card to continue functioning properly. LED Flashing The Coral continuously runs diagnostic routines to monitor the performance and integrity of its database and circuitry. When the circuitry on the UGWipx card fails to perform as expected, the system instructs the UGWipx card to flash its system diagnostic LED. If, on a subsequent execution of the same routine that reported a failure, the circuitry passes the test, the UGWipx card is instructed to extinguish the LED. Occasionally, circuitry may fail a diagnostic test, even though it is not truly defective. If a system diagnostic LED is observed flashing but no problem is apparent, wait 60 minutes and check the card again. If the LED is no longer flashing, the test failure was probably insignificant. If the flashing continues however, the UGWipx card is likely to be malfunctioning, even if no problem can be identified. MG Green LED The green LED below the main diagnostic LED is lit if a MG module is installed. If the LED is not lit, remove the UGWipx and reinsert. If there is no MG module installed, this light will remain unlit. UGWipx, UGW-Eipx, PUGWipx Universal Gateway Card for Coral FlexiCom 200 and Coral IPx Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 4-27

105 5 FlexSet-IP 280S Keyset Installation 1 General Information The FlexSet-IP 280S is a fully functional keyset that combines the ability to communicate with the IP world with the solid dependability and high level of functionality available from the Coral system. The FlexSet-IP 280S can be used in a normal office environment, or can connect to the Coral via the IP environment from an external location, enabling telecommuting without losing the benefits of the Coral s rich features. Description For full description see Chapter 3, Terminal Equipment in the Coral FlexiCom and Coral IPx Product Description. User Guide for Using the Keyset Refer to the FlexSet-IP 280S User Guide for complete operating instructions and feature description. Operating Requirements The FlexSet-IP 280S has a unique MAC address that identifies the telephone to the Coral system database and that must be entered into the Program Interface Database of the Coral system. The phone must be connected to the LAN, connected to an external power source (depending on system power configuration, see page 5-28, Powering the FlexSet-IP 280S) and configured for the relevant IP addresses in order to begin operation, as documented in this chapter. Call Compression During IP calls, voice is digitized and sent out, in packets over the LAN after the actual voice has been compressed. Each FlexSet is assigned a set of compression methods through its COS. FlexSet-IP 280S Keyset Installation 5 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 5-1

106 5 If one of the calling sides is not an IP station, or there is no compression method match between two stations, then that party assumes the compressions available for the UGW card handling the call. When there are no compression matches in both party s COSs or via the UGW, then the call is denied and the message CODEC MISMATCH appears on the keyset display. Line Distances The FlexSet-IP 280S is designed to operate over Ethernet LAN with a connection of less than 100 meters to the local switch when using Category 5 UTP (unshielded twisted pair). See Figure 5-1 below for an illustration of the placement of IP stations in relation to their LAN hubs. Figure 5-1 FlexSet-IP 280S Maximum Line Lengths via UGW Interface Ethernet Switch 100 meters PC 100 meters Switch Switch 100 meters PC Switch 10/ meter Switch 100 meters FlexSet-IP 280S Keyset Installation 5 FlexSet-IP 280S FlexSet-IP 280S PC 5-2 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

107 2 Installing the FlexSet-IP 280S Before performing the following steps to install the FlexSet-IP 280S, ensure you read and understand the whole chapter thoroughly. Installation Procedure 1. Configure the PI database (see PI Database Programming - General on page 5-6) 2. Configure the PI database for this FlexSet-IP 280S (if required) (see PI Database Programming - FlexSet-IP 280S on page 5-9) 3. Unpack the FlexSet-IP 280S and connect the handset (see Unpacking and Assembling the FlexSet-IP 280S on page 5-14) 4. Connect the FlexSet-IP 280S to the PC/LAN (see Network (LAN/PC) Connection on page 5-17) 5. Connect the Wall/Desk Mounting kit (if required) (see Wall Mounting/Desk Elevation on page 5-21) 6. Connect the TPS power adapter if required (see Powering the FlexSet-IP 280S on page 5-28) 7. Configure the FlexSet-IP 280S (if required) (see Configuring the FlexSet-IP 280S on page 5-32) 8. In the event of error message being displayed, refer to the troubleshooting section (see Troubleshooting on page 5-36) 9. If you wish to upgrade the FlexSet-IP software, refer to the upgrade section later in this chapter (see Upgrading the FlexSet-IP 280S Software on page 5-39) 5 FlexSet-IP 280S Keyset Installation Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 5-3

108 5 3 Survivability The FlexSet-IP is designed to enable system survivability under adverse conditions. In the event of a problem with a primary call agent, the FlexSet-IP can be configured to automatically switch to an alternative call agent, and to return to the primary call agent upon re-detection. Up to ten call agents may be defined in the FlexSet-IP. Each call agent can be configured as either Primary or Secondary. Should a network problem occur in which the phone loses its primary call agent, it attempts to connect to a secondary call agent from the list (or another primary call agent, if more than one is configured). When connected to the secondary call agent, the FlexSet-IP will periodically attempt to communicate with a primary call agent. When a primary call agent is found, the FlexSet-IP will revert back. If the phone is engaged in a call, the FlexSet-IP will only revert back to a primary call agent once the active call is completed. The survivability feature must be configured on the FlexSet-IP itself and in the PI. Enable this feature from your FlexSet-IP as follows: Flexset-IP Configuration 1. Press the key. 2. Choose [SysDef] and enter the password (default = ) at the prompt. 3. Select Operating Mode > Survivability. 4. To change value, press [edit]. 5. Press [Yes]. SysDef:Operating Mode:Survivability No edit 6. Press [Save] to save the change. FlexSet-IP 280S Keyset Installation In addition, you must configure at least one primary and one secondary call agent, as described in Table 5-4 on page Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

109 PI Configuration In every Coral system that is connected to this Coral network, define the FlexSet-IP with the same dial number for uniform numbering scheme. Then define the following parameters: Feature Control (Route: Feat,0) CF_UNDEF [39] Define the private library number to which you wish to forward the calls. Private Library (Route: Lib,1) DIAL_NUM Define the Flexset s dial number. OUT_TK Define the Routing Numbering Plan (LCR). Routing Numbering Plan (Route: LCR,5) ELEMENT Define the route element. N-DGTS Define the total number of digits the system must receive at this specific route. TYPE_OF_NUM Define the number type as U (Unknown) Route Elements (Route: LCR,4) DAY: PRIO EVEN: PRIO NIGHT: PRIO Define the priority order of the Dial Service to be used during the Day, Evening and Night time periods. Dial Services (Route: LCR,3) ROUTING_DEST_NUM Define the routing destination number (i.e. the number of the group you wish to use).

110 5 4 PI Database Programming - General Before Connecting to the LAN Enter the Port List, MAC address and IP address in Table 5-1 Station Number information form for FlexSet-IP 280S sets provided on page Keep this list handy for updating station numbers and names. It is recommended that the following parameters are defined prior to initializing the IP Keyset. For further details refer to the VoIP chapter (ch. 29) of the Programming Interface & Database Reference Manual Version 14 or higher. Size Definition (Route: SIZ) The system database allocates resources to manage the operation of an IP Keyset station based on the value entered in the KEYSET_IP field. If insufficient resources have been allocated in Sizes, the entry must be increased or the IP Keysets will not operate. See Chapter 4, Size Definition of the Program Interface Reference Manual, for more information. KEYSETS_IP Set this entry to accommodate the total number of IP Keysets expected to be used in the system. Ensure that the maximum number of IP Keysets to be used in the system is defined. If insufficient resources are allocated, the FlexSets will not initialize. Modifying the System Sizes initializes the entire system database, and requires the re-entry of all database information. FlexSet-IP 280S Keyset Installation To add IP ports to a non-ip system, IP sizes must be updated and First Initialization performed. Numbering Plan (Route: NPL) IP_KEYSET [41] In the pattern numbering plan, each IP Keyset is assigned a dial number. Use ADD or REMOVE to assign the dial number. 5-6 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

111 Defining the MAC address Define the MAC address for each IP Keyset station. An IP keyset that does not have a registered MAC number is inoperable. There are two ways to register the MAC address to the Coral database: When registering just a few FlexSet-IP 280S keysets, define the MAC parameter in the IP stations menu for each one (see MAC [0] below). When registering a larger number of FlexSet-IP 280S keysets, you may instruct the system to automatically register the MAC addresses for the IP keysets upon initiliazation (see IP_KEYSET_AUTOMATIC_REGISTRATION below). IP-Ports: Keysets (Route: IP,1,0) MAC [0] Enter the unique MAC address for this IP Keyset to register the keyset in the Coral. The MAC number can be found on the bottom of the IP Keyset, on outside of the FlexSet-IP 280S packing box or viewed on the keyset display as described below: Use the and buttons to scroll through menu options. Press at each stage to select and continue or to undo the previous selection. 1. Press the key on the FlexSet-IP 280S. 2. Choose [SysDef] and enter the password (default = ) at the prompt. A password is required as a reminder that these parameters are sensitive and affect the operation of your FlexSet-IP. 3. Select IP Params > Static > Self MAC Adr. SysDef:Ip Params:Static:Self MAC Adr 00-0A-6B Make a note of the MAC address that is displayed and enter this into the PI. Only IP terminals known to the Coral will be able to register with the system. IP-General (Route: IP,3) IP_KEYSET_AUTOMATIC_REGISTRATION The system can automatically register the MAC address for IP Keysets when initializing IP stations. Before connecting the IP keysets, define this parameter as Yes to enable automatic MAC registration. This parameter is reset to No each midnight. FlexSet-IP 280S Keyset Installation 5 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 5-7

112 FlexSet-IP 280S Keyset Installation 5 Defining this parameter allows anyone to connect a keyset and begin making calls. Reset this parameter to No once all IP keysets are registered. 5-8 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

113 5 PI Database Programming - FlexSet-IP 280S After Initializing and Connecting to the LAN The Program Interface Reference Manual includes instructions for defining all the programming parameters required to customize the FlexSet-IP 280S. The technician should decide which parameters are relevant for each station user and define the station accordingly. A list of the relevant PI branches is shown below. System Features - Station (Route: SFE,2) Some operating characteristics are determined system-wide for all keysets and FlexSets. Station timers (Route: ST.T) Keyset/FlexSet Definitions (Route: EKT) IP_FAX_ENABLED [Y/N] If this FlexSet-IP is able to send or receive fax calls, set this parameter to Yes (default: No). IP_MODEM_ENABLED [Y/N] If this FlexSet-IP is able to send or receive modem calls, set this parameter to Yes (default: No). Keyset timers (Route: EKT,0) Idle Display (Route: ROOT,0,0,3) Fixed System Keys (Route: SYS) This option allows programming the four Fixed System Keys for all FlexSets in the system. The programming is unique to each installation and is done upon request by the system administrator or buyer. FlexSet-IP 280S Keyset Installation 5 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 5-9

114 Possible Group Assignments Each FlexSet may be a member of the following groups: Hunt Group (Route: HUNT) Boss Group (Route: BOSS) Pickup Group* (Route: PICK) *Can be a member of only one Pickup Group. Zoned Voice Page Group (Route: VPZ) Group Call (Route: CALL) Parameters applied to each keyset The following parameters are used to assign information specific to each FlexSet on a per port basis. Port List (Route: PLIS,0) Each FlexSet may be assigned a port name. Two versions of the port name may be entered for each keyset. Up to five characters may be entered in the short field. The short name is displayed on FlexSet 120D/120S station sets. The full field may contain names up to 16 characters in length, and is displayed on keysets with displays of 80 or more characters. Keyset Definition (Route: KEY) An operating profile for each FlexSet is defined in the Keyset Definition branch. This profile assigns the FlexSet two COS levels that can be imposed during specified day and night service periods. The profile also determines whether certain features permitted by the station s COS are currently enabled. DND_WP [12] Whisper pages can not be received by an IP keyset. Set this parameter to Yes to enable the user to prevent Whisper pages. FlexSet-IP 280S Keyset Installation 5 VOICE_MAIL (dtmf receive) [24] Set this parameter to No. MUSIC [29] Background music is currently not supported for IP keysets. PCC [38] This feature is not relevant for IP keysets. ACD_PC [39] This feature is not relevant for IP keysets. SOFTKEY [41] Defines the keyset to support Soft Keys. Set this parameter to Yes (default) Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

115 Feature Control (Route: FEAT) Determines whether certain features are currently activated or inactivated. Station COS (Route: COS,0) Calling and feature privileges are determined by the Class Of Service to which each keyset is assigned. The Coral supports up to 250 distinct COS, which comprise calling privileges, features access, etc. User Compression List [92] Define the available compressions used for IP calls, in order of preference, for this COS. Matching compression values must be found in the COSs of both calling parties in order to complete the IP call. If one of the calling sides is not an IP Keyset, then that party assumes the compressions available for the UGW card handling the call. Both FlexSet-IP 280S must have at least one matching compression definition in their COS definition in order to establish a pure IP connection. Otherwise, the Coral will attempt to establish the call via the MG module and the Coral PCM matrix and the call will not be pure-ip. G.711 defines no compression (with 10ms, 20ms, 40ms or 80ms delay time between packets) G.729 defines a compression ratio of 8 (with 10ms, 20ms, 30ms, 40ms or 80ms delay time between packets) Tenant COS (Route: COS,2) General Numbering Plan (Route: NPL,0) IP_KEYSET [41] Designate a range of dial numbers for IP Keysets IP_SLT [42] Designate a range of dial numbers for IP SLT FXS interface unit circuits. IP_LGS [43] Designate a range of dial numbers for IP LGS FXO interface unit circuits. IP_KEY_VPG [44] Designate a range of dial numbers for IP Keysets Voice Page.

132 5 9 Powering the FlexSet-IP 280S In traditional wired Coral terminal installations (SLT, FlexSet 120, etc.) and even home telephone service, the phone is powered via the same twisted pair wires that carry the voice signal. The FlexSet-IP 280S requires external power at all times. There are three options to power the FlexSet-IP 280S. Two options (Types A and B, as described below) provide power via the LAN. A third option (Type C, below) powers the FlexSet-IP from a local AC power outlet. Two Options (Type A and Type B) for LAN Power Transmission There are two options for supplying power to FlexSet-IP 280S telephones over a LAN (according to IEEE 802.3af standard). The choice is directly dependent on the type of LAN infrastructure an organization has in place. Power over LAN: Type A (Figure 5-16) For organizations with existing 10/100MB LAN infrastructures, there are two spare twisted pairs (4, 5, 7 & 8 pins) of unused wires in their standard Category 5 LAN cabling that can be utilized to carry power to IP devices on the network. One caveat: organizations with existing 10MB LANs need to ensure that all four pairs of their cabling extend to all areas of their facility, because experience has shown that installers occasionally split cables or did not extend the spare pairs to all points in a facility. Additional cabling work may be required. Power over LAN: Type B (Figure 5-17) For organizations implementing 10/100MB LANs, the only choice is to carry power via signal pairs (1, 2, 3 & 6 pins) - because all pairs are already used to carry data in 100MB LANs. As a result, shortcomings in cabling should not be an issue. The manufacturer encourages organizations to ensure that all twisted pairs are properly installed before considering or going with power over the LAN. Performing the full cable installation will automatically ready the desktop for delivering power over the LAN. FlexSet-IP 280S Keyset Installation One Option (Type C) for Local Power Adapter Alternatively, the FlexSet-IP 280S can be powered directly from the AC power supply: TPS Wall Power Adapter: Type-C (Figure 5-18) Power is supplied from a local power adapter plugged into an AC (115V or 230V) power wall receptacle via the DC power jack on the rear panel Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

133 Tips - Which Type is the Best The FlexSet-IP 280S requires external power at all times. An AC wall power adapter (type C) for powering FlexSet-IP 280S is the most obvious and immediate means; it is both the easiest from an installation standpoint and currently the most cost-effective approach to providing power to the FlexSet-IP 280S. Adding power ports (types A or B) to an existing LAN can be significantly more costly than the simple AC wall adapter. Nevertheless, the added convenience of reducing the amount of cables to the desktop, or placing a FlexSet-IP where power is not readily available from the building power wiring and receptacles, creates a strong argument for using power over the data network. Powering over the LAN (type A & B or IEEE 802.3af standard) infrastructure will quickly lower the cost of putting power on a LAN, as equipment manufacturers offer more choices in standalone LAN power hubs and integrated power/data switches. Advantages of Powering IP Phones Over the LAN Powering FlexSet-IP over the LAN offers a number of advantages: If the LAN has power backup, voice services can stay online along with data in the event of a power failure. Less electrical cabling in the case of new buildings, office relocations, re-configurations, and personnel moves. One cable to the FlexSet-IP set desktop, with power to the FlexSet-IP being an integral part of the centrally managed IP infrastructure. Only a single network connection is required to place both the FlexSet-IP phone and the desktop PC on the LAN - no additional LAN ports or power receptacles are needed, providing the ultimate in office real estate efficiency. 5 FlexSet-IP 280S Keyset Installation Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 5-29

136 10 Configuring the FlexSet-IP 280S IP Keyset Definitions Before starting to use the FlexSet-IP 280S, you must first note the MAC address of the FlexSet and enter it into the PI (see PI Database Programming - General on page 5-6), after which you must configure the required FlexSet-IP parameters (see Inputting the FlexSet-IP Parameters below). For networks in which a DHCP Server and DNS Server are used to provide the IP parameters to the FlexSet-IP (and the Call Agent is defined in the DNS Server), you may skip this section and continue with PI Database Programming - General on page 5-6. Inputting the FlexSet-IP Parameters Use see Table 5-4 IP Parameters on page 5-34 to fill in the relevant addresses before you edit the numbers. Contact the system administrator to determine whether you will be using a static or dynamic IP address. It is recommended that FlexSet-IP 280S telecommuters use dynamic addresses. If a parameter is defined as dynamic, the FlexSet-IP will attempt to contact a DHCP and/or DNS Server to retrieve the information for that parameter. Therefore, if you define a mandatory address as dynamic, ensure that the IP keyset is on the same network as the relevant DHCP and/or DNS Server. Use the FlexSet-IP up/down / keys to scroll through the menu options. Press the right key at each stage to select and continue or the left key to undo the previous selection. 1. Press the key. 2. Choose [SysDef] and enter the password (default = ) at the prompt. FlexSet-IP 280S Keyset Installation 5 A password is required as a reminder that these parameters are sensitive and affect the operation of your FlexSet-IP. 3. Select IP Params > Static. 4. Select the parameter you wish to enter or change (see Table 5-4 IP Parameters on page 5-34). After selecting the required parameter, you can scroll between the displayed parameters by using the up/down arrow keys.

172 Coral Teleport Telephony Gateway Installation 6 5 Software Installation BootP, TFTP Servers The Coral Teleport MP-1xx implements BootP and TFTP protocols for initialization and software download. Each time the Coral Teleport MP-1xx is powered-on or reset, it performs the standard BootP procedure. Usually, the application software already resides in the Coral Teleport flash memory, so there is no need to use the BootP or TFTP procedure. The download need only be used at first initialization, to change the Coral Teleport configuration or for new software upgrades. When working from flash, the programmed IP address, boot file, ini file, coefficient file and tones file are used. The Bootstrap Protocol enables network administrators to manage the configuration of the Coral Teleport from a central configuration server - BootP/DHCP server. Downloading of the image file by the Coral Teleport is performed using Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP). Although DHCP and BootP servers are similar in operation, the DHCP server includes some differences that prevent its operation with BootP clients. However, many DHCP servers, such as Windows NT DHCP server, are backward compatible with BootP protocol and can be used for Coral Teleport MP-1xx configuration Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

173 Coral Teleport MP-1xx First-Time Initialization When initializing the Coral Teleport for the first time, the technician should use the following procedure: 1. Prepare a PC or laptop as a BootP Server using the software provided on the Installation CD. Ensure all the relevant information is entered in the BootP Server, such as IP Address, Net Mask, etc. 2. The following files (located on the installation CD) should be installed on the BootP Server at first initialization: boot file Select the boot file (.cmp extension) that corresponds to your Coral Teleport model (i.e. MP10x or MP124). ini file Select the ini file (.ini extension) that corresponds to your Coral Teleport type (i.e. FXO or FXS). Before installing the ini file, you must configure the file as documented on page tones file Select the tones file (.dat extension) that corresponds to your country/location (e.g. USA, Israel, etc.) and that corresponds to your Coral Teleport type (FXO or FXS). coefficient file Select the relevant coefficient file (.dat extension) according to the following table: Teleport Version Coefficient File MP-102/FXS MP-104/FXS MP-108/FXS MP-124/FXS (Revision A and C) MP-124/FXS (Revision B) MP-104/FXO MP-108/FXO The version is indicated by a label on the underside of the Coral Teleport, as follows:. Version A is displayed as MP124A/FXS/AC; Version B is displayed as MP124B/FXS/AC; and Version C is displayed as MP124C/FXS/AC. Configure the BootP Server to burn the boot file permanently into the Coral Teleport flash memory on the first installation by adding the suffix -fb preceded by a space, to the command line string. Example: ramxxx.cmp -fb to burn flash memory. MP1xx12_1_fxs.dat MP124B10-1-fxs.dat MP1xx12_1_fxo.dat Coral Teleport Telephony Gateway Installation 6 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 6-27

174 6 This Command Line Switch can only be added in the BootP file name location. The actual file name remains (e.g., ramxxx.cmp) and does not change. 3. Ensure that the Coral Teleport is not connected to the LAN, and that the power is not connected. 4. Connect the Coral Teleport to the laptop computer containing the BootP server, via the Eth-1 RJ-45 connection using a cross cable. The cables should be wired as shown in Figure 6-32 below. Figure 6-32 Cross Cable Pin Connections 1 - Tx (+) 2 - Tx (-) 3 - Rx(+) 4 - not used 5 - not used 6 - Rx (-) 7 - not used 8 - not used Tx (+) - 1 Tx (-) - 2 Rx (+) - 3 not used - 4 not used - 5 Rx (-) - 6 not used - 7 not used - 8 A cross cable is used only when connecting directly to a BootP server PC or laptop. When connecting via a hub/switch, a regular cable is used. 5. Connect the electric power cord to initialize the Coral Teleport for the first time. Coral Teleport Telephony Gateway Installation During the start-up procedure, the Coral Teleport attempts to communicate with the BootP server. After self-testing, the Ready LED turns to Green. Any malfunction causes the Ready LED to change to Red. Refer to Figure 6-33 for the flow chart illustrating Coral Teleport Initialization Procedure Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

176 Coral Teleport MP-1xx Standard Power-Up Procedure After the Coral Teleport has been initialized for the first time, the application software is stored in the integral flash memory. In subsequent operations, the full BootP procedure is no longer required, and all initial parameters are retrieved from the MP-1xx non-volatile memory. In this case, the Coral Teleport MP-1xx only performs the BootP procedure to initialize its operational parameters such as IP address and subnet mask. However, the BootP Server may be used for regular file maintenance, enabling the user to download updated files and configuration parameters. Upgrade the software in the following way: 1. Ensure that the Coral Teleport is connected to the LAN via a parallel cable. A parallel cable is used only when connecting to a BootP server over the LAN. When connecting directly to a local PC or laptop, a cross cable is used. 2. Place some or all of the following files on the BootP Server located on the LAN in order to update the Coral Teleport: boot file ini file If the ini file is always installed on the BootP server located on-site, the web password will be reset with every powerup or reset. In such a case, configure the RESETWEBPASSWORD parameter in the ini file as a remark by placing a semi-colon (;) before it (i.e. ;RESETWEBPASSWORD). Coral Teleport Telephony Gateway Installation 6 tones file (according to country) coefficient file You may configure the BootP Server to burn the boot file permanently into the Coral Teleport flash memory. This process takes an extra couple of minutes. If you do not burn the boot file to the flash memory, the file will be wiped from the flash memory after power-down or reset and the previous version will be used. Example Use: ramxxx.cmp -fb to burn flash memory. 3. Ensure all the relevant information is entered in the BootP Server, such as IP Address, Net Mask, etc. 4. Power-up the Coral Teleport, or Reset the Coral Teleport by using a sharp object such as a paperclip to depress the reset button (shown in Figure 6-21) or from the embedded web server (see Reset on page 6-43.) The Coral Teleport now boots up and begins the initialization procedure Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

177 During start-up procedure, the Coral Teleport attempts to communicate with the BootP server (usually located on the LAN), as shown in Figure If the BootP server is not found, the Coral Teleport starts working from its internal flash memory. The start-up procedure takes about 10 seconds (if the boot file is configured to burn to the flash, the process takes a couple of minutes). After self-testing, the Ready LED turns to green. Any malfunction causes the Ready LED to change to red. BootP and TFTP Server Configuration Tool The manufacturer-provided Server Configuration Tool provides an easy way to configure the Coral Teleport. Similar to third party BootP/TFTP servers but with added functionality, the BootP/TFTP Server Configuration Tool can be installed on Windows 98/NT/2000/XP. With the BootP/TFTP Server Configuration Tool, it is possible to install a TFTP server on a different host. Starting from software version 3.5, the server enables remote reset of the Coral Teleport to trigger the initialization procedure (BootP & TFTP). Refer to Appendix A in the AudioCodes Software Utilities Manual, Document # LTRT Microsoft DHCP/BootP Server If the organization currently uses the Microsoft DHCP server, it can be used to provide an IP address and other necessary information to the Coral Teleport. Alternatively, any other third party BootP server can be used. To configure the Microsoft Windows NT DHCP Server to assign IP address information to BootP clients, add a reservation for each BootP client. For information on how to add a reservation, view the Managing Client Reservations Help topic in DHCP Manager. The reservation builds an association between the Media Access Control (MAC) address (12 digits, printed on a label on the Coral Teleport and on the packaging) and the IP address. Windows NT Server provides the IP address based on the Coral Teleport MAC address in the BootP request frame. To configure the Microsoft Windows NT DHCP server to provide boot file information to BootP clients, edit the BootP Table in DHCP Manager. The BootP Table is located in the Server Properties dialog box that can be accessed from the Server menu. For information on editing the BootP Table, view the BootP Table Help topic in DHCP Manager. Third Party TFTP & BootP Servers Third party TFTP and BootP servers are commercially available.

179 Parameter values listed under the GENERAL (IP addresses and ports, general parameters) and the FILES (tones and coefficient file names) headings should be edited as necessary before installing on BootP server. If there is no Redundant Call Agent, place a semi-colon (;) before the RedundantAgentIP and RedundantAgentPort parameters and they will be ignored. If working without a DNS server, place a semi-colon before each of the four lines relevant for DNS servers. If working with a DNS server, place a semi-colon before each of the two lines relevant for non-dns server environments. If you wish to work with static IP addresses, set the DHCPEnable parameter under the BootP headings to 0 (default is 1). The IP addresses will not be changed after reset. When configuring the ini file for Coral Teleport MP-102/FXS models, the BaseUDPPort parameter should be defined as 20 less than the RTP Base Port. For example if the RTP base port defined in the Coral is 16400, the BaseUDPPort should be defined as in the MP-102 ini file. It is recommended that other parameters are not edited. The exact name of the coefficient file and tones file must be written in the appropriate place in the ini file, otherwise these files will not be written to the flash. The ini File Structure Rules Lines beginning with a semi-colon ';' (as the first character) are considered remarks and are thus ignored. Do not place a semi-colon at the end of a line. Each command must begin on a new line. Number of spaces before and after = is not relevant. If there is a syntax error in the parameter name, the value is ignored. Syntax errors in the parameter value field can cause unexpected errors (because parameters may be set to the wrong values). Sub-section names are optional. The values of String parameters, for example VoicePromptsFileName, should be placed between two inverted commas (' '). The parameter field is not case sensitive. Parameter values should be entered only in decimal format, except for the Call Agent IP address. Coral Teleport Telephony Gateway Installation 6 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 6-33

180 Coral Teleport Telephony Gateway Installation 6 Call Progress Tones & Distinctive Ringing The Call Progress Tones Configuration and Distinctive Ringing file consists of 2 parts. The first part contains the definitions of the Call Progress Tones to be detected/generated by the Coral Teleport. The second part contains the configuration of the Distinctive Ringing patterns to be generated by the Coral Teleport. It is strongly recommended that the configuration file supplied by the manufacturer is used. The Call Progress Tones and Distinctive Ringing Configuration file used by the Coral Teleport is a binary file (with the extension.dat). To download the Call Progress Tones and Distinctive Ringing Configuration file to the Coral Teleport, a correct definition should be used in the ini file, as described in ini File Structure on page Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

181 The coeff.dat Configuration File The coeff.dat configuration file provides best termination and transmission quality adaptation for different line types. The file consists of a set of parameters for the signal processor of the loop interface devices. This parameter set provides control of the following AC and DC interface parameters: DC characteristics (V / I curve and max current) AC impedance matching Transmit gain Receive gain Hybrid balance Frequency response in transmit and receive direction Hook Thresholds (FXS only) Ringing detection parameters Metering parameters This means, for example, that changing impedance matching or hybrid balance requires no hardware modifications, so that a single device is able to meet requirements for different markets. The digital nature of the filters and gain stages also ensures high reliability, no drifts (over temperature or time), and simple variations between different line types. The dat configuration file is produced by the manufacturer for each market after comprehensive performance analysis and testing, and can be modified on request. The current file supports US line type of 600 ohm AC impedance (and for FXS, 40 V RMS ringing voltage for REN = 2). 6 Coral Teleport Telephony Gateway Installation Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 6-35

184 7 Coral Teleport Configuration and Monitoring Overview The Coral Teleport contains an Embedded Web Server to be used both for device configuration and for run-time monitoring. This feature enables users equipped with no more than a standard web browser to perform configuration and monitoring operations that in the past required the use of either an SNMP management station or the use of a proprietary executable written over the VoPLib API. The embedded web server enables you to access the entire database available on the Coral Teleport, therefore enabling management support capabilities via an easy-to-use interface. Specifically, you can employ this facility to set up the device configuration parameters needed to configure the device. You also have the option to reset the device from the web browser in order to apply the new set of parameters. Access to the embedded web server is controlled by protection and security mechanisms as described below. Using the Embedded Web Server for Fast Track Installation The embedded web server enables you to download and install the files required for operation of the Coral Teleport, without the need to use a BootP server (see page 6-44, Software Update). Before using your web browser to access the Coral Teleport s embedded web server, change your PC s IP address and subnet mask to correspond with the Teleport s factory default IP address and subnet mask: Default IP Address (FXS) Default IP Address (FXO) Coral Teleport Telephony Gateway Installation 6 Default Subnet Mask Password Control The embedded web server is protected by a unique username-password combination. The first time the browser accesses the web server, you are prompted to provide your username and password to obtain access. Subsequent requests are automatically negotiated by the browser, so that you do not need to re-enter the username-password for each request, but the request is still authenticated. An additional level of protection is obtained by a restriction that no more than three IP addresses can access the embedded web server concurrently. With this approach, a fourth user is informed that the server is busy, even if the correct username-password was provided. The Embedded Web Server Username-Password The default username-password for all devices is: 6-38 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

185 Username = Admin Password = Admin You can change the web password by clicking Change Password and following the pop-up window directives. The password can be a maximum of 6 characters long. The new password is active only after restarting the device using the reset button of the embedded web server. Otherwise, the old password is still active. You can reset the web password (to the default values) using an ini file parameter called RESETWEBPASSWORD. The web password is automatically the default password. If the BootP server contains an ini file containing this parameter, the password will be automatically updated. Therefore, if you do not wish to reset the password at reboot, place a semi-colon before the RESETWEBPASSWORD parameter in the ini file. Authentication Method The embedded web server uses the Basic authentication method that HTTP protocol supports. The Basic method encodes (by the browser) the username-password using the Base64 encoding scheme and sends it over the network to the server, which decodes it and compares it with the known username-password. All browsers support the Basic method. This method provides some protection in that another browser user cannot access the secured pages unless it provides the username-password. The username-password is decoded so that it cannot be monitored using a packet sniffer. Web Configuration The embedded web server can be configured using ini file parameters. Read-only Mode The embedded web server can be initialized in read-only mode by setting the DISABLEWEBCONFIG ini file parameter (the default state is read-write mode). In this mode, all the web pages are presented in read-only mode. Selecting this mode disables the capability to modify the configuration data. In addition, access to the Change Password page and to the reset page is barred. When the device is controlled through PCI, the embedded web server will always be in read-only mode. Disable/Enable Embedded Web Server You can disable the embedded web server task, thus denying access to the device through HTTP protocol. To disable the web task, use an ini file parameter called DISABLEWEBTASK. The default is web task enabled. When the device is controlled through PCI, the embedded web server is always activated. You cannot disable the task in PCI mode. Coral Teleport Telephony Gateway Installation 6 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 6-39

186 Coral Teleport Telephony Gateway Installation 6 Using the Embedded Web Server This section explains how to use the embedded web server. Once the initial IP address has been set to the device, it is possible to connect with the web-based configuration application stored integrally. To access this web application, invoke any standard web-browsing application such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, etc., and specify the IP address of the device in the address field.

195 8 Coral Sentinel Session Border Control 1 Overview The Coral Sentinel is a Session Border Control (SBC) terminal, addressing various issues inherent in the VoIP environment. Description For full description see Chapter 3, Terminal Equipment in the Coral FlexiCom and Coral IPx Product Description. Remote NAT Devices Terminal Overload Remote NAT (Network Address Translation) devices can overload numerous IP terminals on the same IP address with unique ports. Coral versions 14.x require each IP terminal to have a unique IP address (using port 2427 or 2727). The Coral Sentinel bypasses this issue by acting as a proxy for the remote IP terminals, thus presenting them to the Coral on unique IP addresses. Unique Sockets Remote NAT devices assign a unique socket to every RTP session upon setup. The Coral (or any other Call Agent) is unable to set up a session without knowing which port the NAT will assign. To address this, the Coral Sentinel acts as a meeting point. The IP terminals direct their RTP streams towards the Coral Sentinel, which detects the source socket, adjusting the destination of the RTP streams it transmits accordingly. Firewalls Indirect Connection Firewalls do not allow direct connection from the internal LAN to the outside world, as signalling and media traffic must first travel through the firewall. Coral Sentinel Session Border Control 8 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 8-1

196 Coral Sentinel Session Border Control 8 The Coral Sentinel is located in the DMZ (DeMilitarized Zone). Since all signalling and media traffic to/from the remote IP terminals is routed through the Coral Sentinel, it breaks the attack vector. Over-Exposed Defenses In standard operations a firewall has to expose numerous holes in its defenses - one for each endport. The Coral Sentinel addresses this and maintains one defined access point to the firewall or NAT devices, through which all incoming traffic connects. Therefore, many separate IP terminals can connect to the internet via the firewall or NAT devices, without the need to open up a separate channel to connect each call, as all incoming traffic is now routed through one firewall-controlled channel to the Coral Sentinel. Line Distances The Coral Sentinel is designed to operate over Ethernet LAN with a connection of less than 100 meters to the local switch when using Category 5 UTP (unshielded twisted pair). See Figure 8-1 for an illustration of the placement of IP stations in relation to their LAN hubs. Details The Coral Sentinel supports up to 30 endpoints. Depending upon the compression ratios used, the Coral Sentinel supports up to 13 concurrent RTP sessions at any one time (as shown in the following table). Externally the Coral Sentinel is similar in size and shape to the FlexSet APDL. 8-2 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

197 Table 8-1 Number of RTP Sessions Derived as Function of Compression Rate: Codec Type Packetization Period Percentage of Available Resources Number of RTP Sessions G711 20ms 50% 2 G711 40ms 25% 4 G711 80ms 12.5% 8 G723 30ms 25% 4 G723 60ms 15% 6 G723 90ms 8% 13 G729 10ms 100% 1 G729 20ms 33% 3 G729 30ms 25% 4 G729 40ms 20% 5 G729 80ms 10% 10 Explanation: The Percentage of Available Resources column indicates the amount of available resources of the Coral Sentinel that is used by each RTP session for that compression rate (to a total of 100%). For example, if 4 RTP sessions were active using G729 40ms, that uses a total of 80% of the Coral Sentinel s resources. If a new call attempts to establish via the Coral Sentinel operating G711 40ms (requiring 25% of resources), that call will not establish. 8 Coral Sentinel Session Border Control Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 8-3

201 4 Powering the Coral Sentinel The Coral Sentinel requires external power at all times. There are three options to power the Coral Sentinel. Two options (Types A and B, as described below) provide power via the LAN. A third option (Type C, below) powers the Coral Sentinel from a local AC power outlet. Two Options (Type A and Type B) for LAN Power Transmission There are two options for supplying power to Coral Sentinel terminals over a LAN (according to IEEE 802.3af standard). The choice is directly dependent on the type of LAN infrastructure an organization has in place. Power over LAN: Type A (Figure 8-3) For organizations with existing 10/100MB LAN infrastructures, there are two spare twisted pairs (4, 5, 7 & 8 pins) of unused wires in their standard Category 5 LAN cabling that can be utilized to carry power to IP devices on the network. One caveat: organizations with existing 10MB LANs need to ensure that all four pairs of their cabling extend to all areas of their facility, because experience has shown that installers occasionally split cables or did not extend the spare pairs to all points in a facility. Additional cabling work may be required. Power over LAN: Type B (Figure 8-4) For organizations implementing 10/100MB LANs, the only choice is to carry power via signal pairs (1, 2, 3 & 6 pins) - because all pairs are already used to carry data in 100MB LANs. As a result, shortcomings in cabling should not be an issue. The manufacturer encourages organizations to ensure that all twisted pairs are properly installed before considering or going with power over the LAN. Performing the full cable installation will automatically ready the desktop for delivering power over the LAN. One Option (Type C) for Local Power Adapter Alternatively, the Coral Sentinel can be powered directly from the AC power supply: TPS Wall Power Adapter: Type-C (Figure 8-5) Power is supplied from a local power adapter plugged into an AC (115V or 230V) power wall receptacle via the DC power jack on the rear panel. Coral Sentinel Session Border Control 8 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 8-7

202 Tips - Which Type is the Best The Coral Sentinel requires external power at all times. An AC wall power adapter (type C) for powering Coral Sentinel is the most obvious and immediate means; it is both the easiest from an installation standpoint and currently the most cost-effective approach to providing power to the Coral Sentinel. Adding power ports (types A or B) to an existing LAN can be significantly more costly than the simple AC wall adapter. Nevertheless, the added convenience of reducing the amount of cables to the desktop, or placing a Coral Sentinel where power is not readily available from the building power wiring and receptacles, creates a strong argument for using power over the data network. Powering over the LAN (type A & B or IEEE 802.3af standard) infrastructure will quickly lower the cost of putting power on a LAN, as equipment manufacturers offer more choices in standalone LAN power hubs and integrated power/data switches. Advantages of Powering the Coral Sentinel Over the LAN Powering the Coral Sentinel over the LAN offers a number of advantages: If the LAN has power backup, voice services can stay online along with data in the event of a power failure. Less electrical cabling in the case of new buildings, office relocations, re-configurations, and personnel moves. One cable to the Coral Sentinel, with power to the Coral Sentinel being an integral part of the centrally managed IP infrastructure.

Figure 8-19 Coral Sentinel Monitor Screen The Monitor screen displays the details of each IP keyset that is registered in the Coral Sentinel. The Status column indicates whether there is an IP keyset connected to the Coral Sentinel (Active = connected) and the RTP column indicates the activity status of that phone (Active = call in progress). 8 Coral Sentinel Session Border Control Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 8-23

218 9 PI Database Programming - Coral Sentinel The following parameters should be defined prior to operating the Coral Sentinel. For further details refer to the VoIP chapter (ch. 29) of the Programming Interface & Database Reference Manual Version 14 or higher. Size Definition (Route: SIZ) The system database allocates resources to manage the operation of a Coral Sentinel based on the value entered in the KEYSET_IP field. If insufficient resources have been allocated in Sizes, the entry must be increased or the IP keysets will not operate. See Chapter 4, Size Definition of the Program Interface Reference Manual, for more information. KEYSETS_IP Set this entry to accommodate the total number of IP keysets (including Coral Sentinels) expected to be used in the system. Ensure that the maximum number of IP keysets plus Sentinels to be used in the system is defined. If insufficient resources are allocated, the Sentinel will not initialize. Modifying the System Sizes initializes the entire system database, and requires the re-entry of all database information. To add IP ports to a system that is not yet configured for IP operation, IP sizes must be updated and First Initialization performed. Coral Sentinel Session Border Control 8 Numbering Plan (Route: NPL) IP_KEYSET [41] In the pattern numbering plan, each IP port is assigned a dial number. This number can be modified by choosing ADD or REMOVE and assigning the dial number to a specific index number. Defining the MAC address Define the MAC address for each Coral Sentinel. A Coral Sentinel that does not have a registered MAC number is inoperable. There are two ways to register the MAC address to the Coral database: When registering one or a few Coral Sentinels, define the MAC parameter in the IP stations menu for each Coral Sentinel (see MAC [0] below) Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

219 When registering a larger number of Coral Sentinels, you may instruct the system to automatically register the MAC addresses for the IP keysets upon initialization (see IP_KEYSET_AUTOMATIC_REGISTRATION below). IP-Keysets (Route: IP,1) MAC [0] Enter the unique MAC address for this Coral Sentinel to register the terminal in the Coral. The MAC number can be found on the Coral Sentinel packing box, on the bottom of the Coral Sentinel, or viewed on the Setup screen of the embedded web server as shown in Configuring the Coral Sentinel Using the Embedded Web Server on page Make a note of the MAC address that is displayed and enter this into the PI. IP-General (Route: IP,3) IP_KEYSET_AUTOMATIC_REGISTRATION The system can automatically register the MAC address for IP terminals, such as Coral Sentinels, when initializing. Before connecting the Coral Sentinel, define this parameter as Yes to enable automatic MAC registration. This parameter is reset to No each midnight. Defining this parameter allows anyone to connect a keyset and begin making calls. Reset this parameter to No once all Coral Sentinels are registered. Port List (Route: PLIS,0) Each Coral Sentinel may be assigned a port name. Two versions of the port name may be entered for each Sentinel. Up to five characters may be entered in the short field. The full field may contain names up to 16 characters in length. Use the table on Table 5-1 on page 5-13 to keep track of Coral Sentinel terminal details.

223 10 FlexSet IP in SOHO Environment Small Office, Home Office Installation 1 Overview IP ports (IP keysets/flexip SoftPhones/Coral Teleports) that are placed in home or remote office sites are often connected behind a NAT (Network Address Translation) device to the computer network. Those end points in the SOHO (Small Office/Home Office) environment are actually extensions of the Coral located within the corporate network. The corporate network itself is usually located behind its own NAT device and a firewall due to security concerns. Firewalls usually have two or three interfaces, also known as legs. This chapter describes the different configurations and procedures required to install VoIP telephony in a SOHO environment, at both the Coral and the SOHO locations. 2 Minimum Requirements Small Office/Home Office Location: FlexSet-IP 280S with software version 2.xx or later LAN (Ethernet) connection behind cable or DSL connectivity (The FlexIP SoftPhone provides poor voice quality when using a dial-up connection) Default Router s IP address and Subnet Mask (these are provided by your ISP). A DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Server may be used to allocate IP parameters to your IP phone. Main Office/Coral Location: One (1) Static private IP address for the UGW card in the Coral One (1) Static private IP address for the MG module One (1) Static private IP address for the Coral Sentinel, and a range of another thirty (30) private address in same network as the first one One (1) public IP address with static NAT entry to the Coral Sentinel private IP address FlexSet IP in SOHO Environment Small Office, Home Office Installation 10 Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 10-1

224 Cor a l Recommended SOHO Configurations The Coral s VoIP solution makes use of the Coral Sentinel (see Section 8, Coral Sentinel of this manual) in a SOHO configuration, providing a reliable, robust communications medium. Several alternative configuration options are described on the following pages. Configuration Option 1 - Three Leg Firewall with DMZ In cases in which a DMZ 1 (DeMilitarized Zone) is present it is preferable to connect the Coral and the Sentinel within this zone, as shown in Figure The firewall protects the Coral and the Sentinel from DOS (Denial of Service) attacks, port scanning, etc., and also blocks attacks from the PSTN network towards the data network. The firewall has three legs: one ( 1 in the figure below) connected to the internal LAN, one ( 2 ) connected to the DMZ and one ( 3 ) that enables communication with the internet. FlexSet IP in SOHO Environment Small Office, Home Office Installation Figure 10-1 Network Configuration with DMZ Public Internet 3 Firewall 1 2 Cable / DSL Modem Cable / DSL Modem Internal LAN NAT Server NAT Server Coral Sentinel via UGW Interface Coral System Remote Office Home Office DMZ A neutral zone between a company's private network and the outside public network, preventing outside users from getting direct access to a server that has company data Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual

225 Cor al 5000 Configuration Option 2 - Two Leg Firewall without DMZ In a network configuration that does not include a DMZ, the Coral and the Sentinel should be located in the internal network similar to any other server that is crucial to the organization, as shown in Figure The firewall has two legs: one ( 1 in the figure below) connected to the internal LAN, where the Coral and the Sentinel are located, and one ( 2) that enables communication with the internet. Figure 10-2 Network Configuration without DMZ Cable / DSL Modem NAT Server Remote Office Public Internet Cable / DSL Modem NAT Server Home Office 2 Firewall 1 Internal LAN Coral Sentinel via UGW Interface FlexSet IP in SOHO Environment Small Office, Home Office Installation 10 Coral System Coral Voice Over IP Installation Manual 10-3

226 10 Cor al 5000 Configuration Option 3 - Dedicated IP Telephony Internet Link An alternative configuration option is a dedicated internet connection for IP telephony only. This layout requires two UGW cards in the Coral system - one ( 1 in the figure below) servicing the internal LAN/WAN and one ( 2 ) providing access to the internet. Each of the UGW cards belongs to a different group and manages the end points configured for that group only. This configuration prevents direct IP sessions between IP telephony end points located in the inner network and the internet. To create a call between an inner IP port and an external (internet) endpoint, the Coral creates an RTP (Real-Time Transport Protocol) session between the inner port and the inner UGW (UGW 1 in Figure 10-3), and between the Internet endpoint and the outside UGW (UGW 2). There is no direct RTP session between the external and internal networks - the RTP is transmitted as PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) between the UGW cards. The firewall has two legs: one ( 1 ) connected to the internal LAN, where the Coral and the Sentinel are located, and one ( 2 ) that enables communication with the internet.

227 4 Installation Coral Location 1. Install and configure the UGW card with a private IP address (see Inserting the UGW Card on page 3-30 or Inserting the UGWipx Card on page 4-18). 2. Install and configure the Coral Sentinel (see Unpacking the Coral Sentinel on page 8-6). 3. Configure a static NAT entry from the public IP address to the private IP address of the Coral Sentinel (this configuration should be done in the NAT device (Router or Firewall)) 4. If using a voice dedicated internet connection, a different group number should be assigned to every UGW card. 5. If using a firewall with MGCP support - Enable MGCP from the end points global IP address to the Coral Sentinel IP address. If using a firewall without MGCP support: a. Enable MGCP (UDP port 2427) from the end points to the Coral Sentinel (static pinhole). b. Enable RTP (UDP ports: ) from the end points global IP address to the Coral Sentinel (static pinholes, the Sentinel actually uses only the tenth port: 16400, 16410, ). 6. If using a voice dedicated internet connection, it is recommended that you increase security by opening only the pinholes described in step 5. above, by configuring the access list in the router. Home Office / Remote Office Location 1. Install and configure the FlexSet-IP (see Unpacking and Assembling the FlexSet-IP 280S on page 5-14), using the following definitions (see IP Keyset Definitions on page 5-32): Self IP Address - configure as dynamic Primary Call Agent - enter the Coral Sentinel Global (public) IP address 2. When using voice dedicated Internet connection, the external group number should be configured in the Coral for every end point.
