3 Audience This document is intended for the SIP Trunk Customer s technical staff and Value Added Reseller (VAR) having installation and operational responsibilities Introduction This Application Note describes configuration steps for configuring Gamma SIP Trunking to ShoreTel Connect Onsite System. Gamma s Next Generation Network Gamma is one of the UK's largest providers of voice and data services, switching hundreds of millions of minutes per month over our soft switch infrastructure. We only provide services into the business market and place huge emphasis on the availability, reliability and quality of the national fiber network that underpins our products. This is complemented by a comprehensive governance structure that assures the security of our platforms and business continuity of our support services. As such, the majority of our products are accredited to ISO 27001, ISO and ISO Our network has been designed and deployed to: Ensure very high levels of system availability through multiple layers of technical and geographic resilience Support all the network elements of a converged solution, provided as an integrated solution or as component parts Support the end-to-end automation of customer transactions between our portal and network platforms enabling customers to place orders, configure services and access a range of product functions, as well as providing a suite of tools to manage billing and usage Facilitate the rapid development and deployment of new product functionality Do all of the above whilst achieving the lowest regulated industry price points, so we can compete evenly with all the major carriers Network Architecture Our network architecture can be broadly broken down into four areas: A deep voice interconnect, an integral part of the UK PSTN The aggregation of data access services (Broadband and Ethernet), internet peering, as well as a number of locations where we provide direct private connectivity to our customers networks An IP-based soft switch that supports over three million busy hour calls The core application and service delivery platforms that support our products and associated portal interfaces ShoreTel.

4 Network Peering We have carrier interconnects with a number of operators including BT, Cable & Wireless, Virgin Media, Talk Talk, Orange, T Systems as well as peering relationships with a number of IP transit providers including Global Crossing, Packet Exchange and Epsilon and an established presence in a number of the main communications hubs such as Telecity 6/7 and 8/9, Telehouse East and North. As our core voice network is IP-based, this infrastructure is also used to support our data services. We have four interconnects with BT spread across two geographic locations to support the aggregation and management of our data services (Broa and Ethernet), which provides a high level of resilience and also the ability to assure quality of service (QoS) for Gamma's VOIP traffic. We also partner with Epsilon who is well placed to provide service across its pan-european network. For Gamma Sales and Support please visit: Figure 1: Gamma Network ShoreTel.

6 Features SIP Registration Method This test used a Static Registration Method between the ShoreTel Connect Onsite IP-PBX and Gamma. There is no registration requirement for the ShoreTel PBX. Features Supported Basic calls with G711Ulaw Call Hold and Resume Call Transfer Call Forwarding Three-Way Calling DTMF RFC 2833 Calling Party Number Presentation Calling Party Number Restricted Hunt Group Group Pickup Call Park/un-park Simul Ring Call Forward FindMe Operator Assisted Call Recording Auto-Attendant Fax Call(G711Alaw Pass-through and T38) Bridge Call Appearances(BCA) Work Group Office Anywhere External Silent Monitor / Barge-In / Whisper Page Features Not Supported Digest Authentication ShoreTel.

7 Caveats and Limitations 4.16 ShoreTel Service Appliance Unified Communication System was not tested in the current testbed due to the requirement of additional hardware and licenses (This feature is not covered in this application note) 4.27 Contact Center was not tested in the current testbed due to the requirement of additional hardware (This feature is not covered in this application note) SIP Media Proxy is required to provide feature parity of PRI Trunks with SIP Trunks. This includes features like Office Anywhere, Simultaneous Ringing, 3-way Mesh Conferencing, Call Recording, Silent monitoring, Barge-In, Whisper Page etc. It is enabled by default on ShoreTel Virtual Trunk switches, but needs to be assigned manually on new ShoreTel Voice Switches as well as legacy half-width ShoreGear Switches. For further information on SIP Media Proxy please refer to Chapter 19 of the ShoreTel Connect Administration Guide. NOTE: There may be other feature limitations when using SIP Trunks. Please refer to Chapter 19 of the ShoreTel Connect Administration Guide for more information. ShoreTel. Brilliantly simple business communications. Page 7 of 26
