Local Configuration

This manual primarily describes local configuration with the Windows

GUI. After IP addresses have been set locally using the Windows GUI,

most aspects of configuration (logging functions are an exception) can

be handled through the web browser GUI, as well (see the Operation and

Maintenance chapter of this manual). In most aspects of configuration,

the Windows GUI and web-browser GUI differ only graphically, not

functionally. For information on SNMP remote configuration and

management, see the MultiVoipManager documentation.

Pre-Requisites

To complete the configuration of the
MultiVOIP unit, you must know several
things about the overall system.

Before configuring your MultiVOIP Gateway unit, you must know the

values for several IP and telephone parameters that describe the IP

network system and telephony system (PBX or telco central office

equipment) with which the digital MultiVOIP will interact. If you plan

to receive log reports on phone traffic by email (SMTP), you must

arrange to have an email address assigned to the VOIP unit on the

email server on your IP network. A summary of this configuration

information appears on page 58 (“Config Info CheckList”).

IP Parameters

The following parameters must be known about the network (LAN,

WAN, Internet, etc.) to which the MultiVOIP will connect:
