Chapter 4 – Configuring Your MultiVOIP
Introduction
There are two methods of using your MultiVOIP; one is through a web interface, and the other is through the
Windows software interface. There are eight necessary parameters that must be set for the MultiVOIP unit to
operate properly, with some additional settings that are optional. You must know the IP address that will be used,
the IP mask, the Gateway IP, the Domain Name Server information, and the telephone interface type. The
MultiVOIP must be configured locally at first, but changes to this initial configuration can be done locally or
remotely. Local configuration is done through a connection between the “Command” port of the MultiVOIP and the
COM port of the computer; the MultiVOIP configuration software is used for this.
Alternatively, MultiVoipManager is a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) agent program that extends
the capabilities of the MultiVOIP configuration software. MultiVoipManager allows the user to manage any number
of VOIPs on a network, whereas the MultiVOIP configuration software manages only one. The MultiVoipManager
can configure multiple VOIPs simultaneously. MultiVoipManager may reside on the same PC as the MultiVOIP
configuration software.
This chapter will explain the setup portion of the software pertaining to the list below, while Chapter 5 will cover
the Phone Book setup and Chapter 6 will discuss the Statistics options and overall maintenance of the MultiVOIP.
