Getting Started with Configuration/Making the First Call

This section includes basic information for making the first call using VoIP and a Tenor AS; for an
example, this call will enable you to dial Quintum Technology’s test unit and hear a recorded mes-
sage. Once you have accomplished that, you can modify the configuration to meet your own specific
needs.

For future calls, if you require detailed configuration information, see the Tenor Configuration Man-
ager/Tenor Monitor User’s Guide
and Command Line Interface (CLI) guide for detailed configura-
tion information (both documents are located on the CDR ROM you received with the unit or you
can download the latest documentation from

www.quintum.com

).

If you are using a cable modem, or a DSL modem and a firewall, specific instructions are included
in this section, When configuring a firewall, set up a DMZ (this makes the firewall act as a switch so
that all incoming IP traffic for the firewall’s WAN IP will be routed directly to the Tenor AS). If you
are using a cable modem with NO firewall, specific configuration options are also included.

Figure 2-8 Making the First Call

These instructions assume the unit is taken right from the box and is in the default state from the fac-
