IP600 Communication Server Configuration An assumption was made that IP600 Communication Server was installed correctly before configuring the devices. The basic administration task order is as follows: Setup udp (Uniform Dialing Plan) Setup ip-network-region Setup ip-codecs Setup node-names ip Setup ip-interfaces Setup data-module Setup signal-group 3 of 22
Setup trunk-group Setup aar (Automatic Alternate Routing) Setup route-pattern 1 Configure the Uniform Dial Plan In this configuration a 5-digit dial plan was used with the following extension ranges: IP600 Local: 400xx for analog phone, digital phone and IP Telephone 2xxxx for Data Modules IP Office Site: 7xxxx for all phones, mapped to AARCode 700 The routing configuration to the IP Office Site will be shown in later steps. It should be noted that the dial plan and routing configuration to the IP Office Site is dependent on what is already configured at the IP Office Site. This is an example of what was used to verify the configuration. At the prompt, type change dialplan. Match the parameters of the screen shown below, then hit Enter to apply the changes. This configures the five-digit dial plan. At the prompt, type change udp 7. Enter AARCode 700 as shown below and hit Enter to apply the changes. 4 of 22
Similarly type the change udp 2 and change udp 4 to assign Local to Ext Code 2xxxx and 4xxxx. 2 Configure the IP Network Region. At the prompt, type change ip-network-region 1. Match the parameters of the screens shown below, then hit Enter to apply the changes. 5 of 22
3 Select the codecs to be used. At the prompt, type change ip-codec-set 1. The codec(s) that are available are listed here. 4 Assign node names and IP address to each node in the network. At the prompt, type change node-names ip. Create node names and IP addresses for each board as shown below, then hit Enter to apply the changes. Note that an IP address for the IP Office Controller board has also been created. Refer to Figure 1. 6 of 22
5 Define the IP interfaces for C-LAN and MEDPRO boards. At the prompt, type change ip-interfaces and enter the type, slot location, name, gateway address, and network region for each IP interface board. Then hit Enter to apply the changes. Note: The slots have to match. If the C-LAN and MEDPRO boards are not in the same slots shown below, you have to change the slot parameter on the ip-interface screen to match your physical board location. 6 Configure a Link on an Ethernet Data Module for the C-LAN. At the prompt, type add data-module 20001 and match the parameters of the screen shown below. The port has to match with the physical C-LAN slot in the IP600. 01A04 indicates the location of the C-LAN board, and 17 is the required port #. 7 Configure a signaling group. At the prompt, type add signaling-group 7. The following information should be created / changed to match your network settings. Group Type = h.323 Near-end Node Name = 18D1CLAN10 7 of 22
Far-end Node Name = IP400CLAN Far-end Listen Port = 1720 Calls Share IP Signaling Connection = y (This statement is needed to receive multiple calls from IP Office. When IP Office sends multiple calls, they share a signaling connection.) The field Trunk Group for Channel Selection must be left blank when adding the signaling group. Hit Enter to apply the changes and continue with the next step to add trunk group 7. When the trunk group is completed, issue the change signalinggroup 7 command, type 7 in the Trunk Group for Channel Selection field and hit Enter to apply the changes. 9 Configuring a trunk group. At the prompt, type add trunk-group 7. The following information should be created / changed to match the network settings. On page 1 of 10: Group Type = isdn TAC =100 (could be 1xx) Group Name = Call to IP400 (any name) Service Type = Tie Carrier Medium = IP 8 of 22
On page 2 of 10: Send Name = y Send Calling Number = y Send Connected Number = y On page 4 of 10: Port = ip Sig Grp = 7 Note: On the Port field type ip. After the configuration is applied, the virtual IP port 9 of 22
that was assigned (e.g.t00001), as shown below, can be seen if the display or change trunk-group 7 commands are issued. The number of ports entered determines the # of simultaneous calls that will be allowed over the trunk. Hit Enter to apply the changes. The Trunk Group for Channel Selection field, in the signaling-group must now be set to 7. The first step is to take the link out of service by typing busy signalinggroup 7. Type change signaling-group 7, and set the Trunk Group for Channel Selection field to 7. Hit Enter to apply the change. Then, type release signalinggroup 7 to bring it into service. 10 Set AAR to route calls to IP Office. As stated before, the extensions in the IP Office were assigned in the 7xxxx range and mapped to AARCode 700 At the prompt, type change aar analysis 700. Match the parameters show below for the dialed string 700. Seven (7) was selected as the route pattern used to route the calls. 11 Create a route pattern for routing to IP Office. At the prompt, type change route-pattern 7. Set the Group No to match the Trunk Group previously configured (7). Set the FRL to 0. Set the No Del Dgts (number of 10 of 22
deleted digits) to 3. Set the Inserted Digits to 7. The Inserted Digits (7) must match the leading digit of the 5-digit number; in this example the digit happens to be 7. If a 4-digit dial plan is being used, then there is no need to insert any digits. 12 Create stations. Note that the add station command is used to add a new station, and the change station command is used to make changes after a station is created. Included are screens of two IP station forms. DCP and Analog stations are added in a similar manner, but the Type and Port they are connected to must be specified. Create an IP Softphone station: At the prompt, type add station 40060. Provide following information. Name = (Choose any name) Type = 4624 Security Code = 1234 (This is needed for the IP Softphone to register) IP Softphone? = y 11 of 22
Create an IP Telephone station: At the prompt, type add station 40040. Provide following information. Name = (Choose any name) Type = 4624 (This must match the IP Telephone type used) Security Code = 1234 (This is needed for the IP Telephone to register) For analog and DCP stations, the type of the phone and its port need to be provided. 8.
