Document Version 3.1 Chapter 1 Introducing Linksys Analog Telephone Adapters Ensuring Voice Quality Each Linksys ATA is an intelligent low-density Voice over IP (VoIP) gateway that enables carrier-class residential and business IP Telephony services delivered over broadband or high-speed Internet connections. Linksys ATAs maintain the states of all the calls it terminates and makes the proper reaction to user input events (such as on/off hook or hook flash). Because the ATAs use the SIP standard, there is little or no involvement by a “middle-man” server or media gateway controller. The response of a Linksys ATA includes playing a dial tone, collecting DTMF digits and comparing them against a dial plan, or terminating the call. Note The information contained in this guide is not a warranty from Linksys, a division of Cisco Systems, Inc. Customers planning to use Linksys ATAs in a VoIP service deployment are advised to test all functionality they plan to support before putting the ATA in service. By implementing Linksys ATAs with the SIP protocol, intelligent endpoints at the edges of a network perform the bulk of the call processing. This allows the deployment of a large network with thousands of subscribers without complicated, expensive servers. The ATA is a key element in the end-to-end IP Telephony solution. It provides one or more standard telephone RJ-11 phone ports (identical to the telephone phone wall jacks) to which the subscriber connects standard analog telephone equipment to access phone services. The ATA connects to a wide area IP network, such as the Internet, through a broadband (DSL or cable) modem or router. Ensuring Voice Quality Voice quality, as perceived by the subscribers of the IP Telephony service, should be equivalent (or better) compared to the PSTN. Voice quality can be measured with such methods as Perceptual Speech Quality Measurement (PSQM), with a scale of 1–5, in which lower is better; and Mean Opinion Score (MOS), with a scale of 1–5, in which higher is better. Table 1-2 displays speech quality metrics associated with various audio compression algorithms. Note The Linksys ATA supports all the above voice coding algorithms. The following sections describe the factors that contribute to voice quality. Table 1-2 Speech Quality Metrics Algorithm Bandwidth Complexity MOS Score G.711 64 kbps Very low 4.5 G.726 16, 24, 32, 40 kbps Low 4.1 (32 kbps) G.729a 8 kbps Low–medium 4 G.729 8 kbps Medium 4 G.723.1 6.3, 5.3 kbps High 3.8

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 1 Introducing Linksys Analog Telephone Adapters Ensuring Voice Quality Audio Compression Algorithm Speech signals are sampled, quantized, and compressed before they are packetized and transmitted to the other end. For IP Telephony, speech signals are usually sampled at 8000 samples per second with 12–16 bits per sample. The compression algorithm plays a large role in determining the voice quality of the reconstructed speech signal at the other end. The Linksys ATA supports the most popular audio compression algorithms for IP Telephony: G.711 a-law and μ-law, G.726, G.729a, and G.723.1. The encoder and decoder pair in a compression algorithm is known as a codec. The compression ratio of a codec is expressed in terms of the bit rate of the compressed speech. The lower the bit rate, the smaller the bandwidth required to transmit the audio packets. Although voice quality is usually lower with a lower bit rate, it is usually higher as the complexity of the codec gets higher at the same bit rate. Silence Suppression The Linksys ATA applies silence suppression so that silence packets are not sent to the other end to conserve more transmission bandwidth. Instead, a noise level measurement can be sent periodically during silence suppressed intervals so that the other end can generate artificial comfort noise that mimics the noise at the other end (using a CNG or comfort noise generator). Packet Loss Audio packets are transported by UDP, which does not guarantee the delivery of the packets. Packets may be lost or contain errors that can lead to audio sample drop-outs and distortions and lowers the perceived voice quality. The Linksys ATA applies an error concealment algorithm to alleviate the effect of packet loss. Network Jitter The IP network can induce varying delay of the received packets. The RTP receiver in the Linksys ATA keeps a reserve of samples to absorb the network jitter, instead of playing out all the samples as soon as they arrive. This reserve is known as a jitter buffer. The bigger the jitter buffer, the more jitter it can absorb, but this also introduces bigger delay. Therefore, the jitter buffer size should be kept to a relatively small size whenever possible. If the jitter buffer size is too small, late packets may be considered lost and this lowers the voice quality. The Linksys ATA can dynamically adjust the size of the jitter buffer according to the network conditions that exist during a call. Echo Impedance mismatch between the telephone and the IP Telephony gateway phone port can lead to near-end echo. The Linksys ATA has a near-end echo canceller with at least 8 ms tail length to compensate for impedance match. The Linksys ATA also implements an echo suppressor with comfort noise generator (CNG) so that any residual echo is not noticeable.

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 1 Introducing Linksys Analog Telephone Adapters Feature Descriptions Hardware Noise Certain levels of noise can be coupled into the conversational audio signals because of the hardware design. The source can be ambient noise or 60 Hz noise from the power adaptor. The Linksys ATA hardware design minimizes noise coupling. End-to-End Delay End-to-end delay does not affect voice quality directly but is an important factor in determining whether subscribers can interact normally in a conversation taking place over an IP network. Reasonable delay figure should be about 50–100 ms. End-to-end delay larger than 300 ms is unacceptable to most callers. The Linksys ATA supports end-to-end delays well within acceptable thresholds. Feature Descriptions The Linksys ATA is a full featured, fully programmable phone adapter that can be custom provisioned within a wide range of configuration parameters. This chapter contains a high-level overview of features to provide a basic understanding of the feature breadth and capabilities of the Linksys ATA. • SIP Proxy Redundancy, page 1-5 • Supported Codecs, page 1-6 • Streaming Audio Server and Music on Hold, page 1-6 • Silence Suppression and Comfort Noise Generation, page 1-7 • Modem and Fax Pass-Through, page 1-7 • Adaptive Jitter Buffer, page 1-7 • Other Features, page 1-8 SIP Proxy Redundancy In typical commercial IP Telephony deployments, all calls are established through a SIP proxy server. An average SIP proxy server may handle tens of thousands of subscribers. It is important that a backup server be available so that an active server can be temporarily switched out for maintenance. The Linksys ATA supports the use of backup SIP proxy servers so that service disruption should be nearly eliminated. A relatively simple way to support proxy redundancy is to configure a static list of SIP proxy servers to the Linksys ATA in its configuration profile where the list is arranged in some order of priority. The Linksys ATA attempts to contact the highest priority proxy server whenever possible. When the currently selected proxy server is not responding, the Linksys ATA automatically retries the next proxy server in the list. The dynamic nature of SIP message routing makes the use of a static list of proxy servers inadequate in some scenarios. In deployments where user agents are served by different domains it is not feasible to configure a static list of proxy servers for each domain. One solution in this situation is through the use of DNS SRV records. The Linksys ATA can be instructed to contact a SIP proxy server in a domain named in the SIP message. The Linksys ATA consults the DNS server to get a list of hosts in the given domain that provides SIP services. If an entry

Linksys ATA Administrator Guide

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 1 Introducing Linksys Analog Telephone Adapters Feature Descriptions exists, the DNS server returns an SRV record that contains a list of SIP proxy servers for the domain, with their host names, priority, listening ports, and so on. The Linksys ATA tries to contact the list of hosts in the order of their stated priority. If the Linksys ATA is currently using a lower priority proxy server, it periodically probes the higher priority proxy to see whether it is back on line, and switches back to the higher priority proxy when possible. Supported Codecs Negotiation of the optimal voice codec sometimes depends on the ability of the Linksys ATA device to match a codec name with the codec used by the far-end device. The Linksys ATA allows the network administrator to individually name the various codecs that are supported so that the Linksys ATA can successfully negotiate the codec with the far-end equipment. The administrator can select which low-bit-rate codec is to be used for each line. G.711a and G.711u are always enabled. Note When no static payload value is assigned per RFC 1890, the Linksys ATA can support dynamic payloads for G.726. Streaming Audio Server and Music on Hold This feature allows you to attach an audio source to one of the Linksys ATA FXS ports and use it as a streaming audio source device. The corresponding Line (1 or 2) can be configured as a streaming audio server (SAS) such that when the Line is called, the Linksys ATA answers the call automatically and Table 1-3 Codecs Supported by Linksys ATAs Codec (Voice Compression Algorithm) Description G.711 (A-law and mμ-law) This very low complexity codec supports uncompressed 64 kbps digitized voice transmission at one through ten 5 ms voice frames per packet. This codec provides the highest voice quality and uses the most bandwidth of any of the available codecs. G.726 This low complexity codec supports compressed 16, 24, 32, and 40 kbps digitized voice transmission at one through ten 10 ms voice frames per packet. This codec provides high voice quality. G.729A The ITU G.729 voice coding algorithm is used to compress digitized speech. Linksys supports G.729. G.729A is a reduced complexity version of G.729. It requires about half the processing power to code G.729. The G.729 and G.729A bit streams are compatible and interoperable, but not identical. G.723.1 The Linksys ATA supports the use of ITU G.723.1 audio codec at 6.4 kbps. Up to two channels of G.723.1 can be used simultaneously. For example, Line 1 and Line 2 can be using G.723.1 simultaneously, or Line 1 or Line 2 can initiate a three-way conference with both call legs using G.723.1.

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 1 Introducing Linksys Analog Telephone Adapters Feature Descriptions starts streaming audio to the calling party provided the FXS port is off-hook. If the FXS port is on-hook when the incoming call arrives, the Linksys ATA replies with a SIP 503 response code to indicate “Service Not Available.” If an incoming call is auto-answered, but later the FXS port becomes on-hook, the Linksys ATA does not terminate the call but continues to stream silence packets to the caller. If an incoming call arrives when the SAS line has reached full capacity, the Linksys ATA replies with a SIP 486 response code to indicate “Busy Here”. The SAS line can be set up to refresh each streaming audio session periodically (via SIP re-INVITE) to detect whether the connection to the caller is down. If the caller does not respond to the refresh message, the SAS line terminates the call so that the streaming resource can be used for other callers. On a connected call, the Linksys ATA may place the remote party on call. The only way to do this on the SPA2102 is to perform a hook-flash to initiate a three-way call, or to swap two calls during call-waiting. If the remote party indicates that they can still receive audio while the call is holding, the SPA2102 can be set up to contact an auto-answering SAS as described in and have it stream audio to the holding party. When used this way, the SAS is referred to as a MOH Server. Silence Suppression and Comfort Noise Generation Voice Activity Detection (VAD) with Silence Suppression is a means of increasing the number of calls supported by the network by reducing the required bidirectional bandwidth for a single call. VAD uses a very sophisticated algorithm to distinguish between speech and non-speech signals. Based on the current and past statistics, the VAD algorithm decides whether or not speech is present. If the VAD algorithm decides speech is not present, the silence suppression and comfort noise generation is activated. This is accomplished by removing and not transmitting the natural silence that occurs in normal two-way connection. The IP bandwidth is used only when someone is speaking. During the silent periods of a telephone call, additional bandwidth is available for other voice calls or data traffic because the silence packets are not being transmitted across the network. Comfort Noise Generation provides artificially-generated background white noise (sounds), designed to reassure callers that their calls are still connected during silent periods. If Comfort Noise Generation is not used, the caller may think the call has been disconnected because of the “dead silence” periods created by the VAD and Silence Suppression feature. Modem and Fax Pass-Through Modem Pass-through Mode can be triggered only by predialing the . FAX Pass-through Mode is triggered by CED/CNG tone or NSE events. Echo canceller is automatically disabled for Modem Pass-through Mode only. Echo canceller is automatically disabled only if (Line 1/2) is set to “yes” for that line (in that case FAX pass-through is the same as Modem pass-through). Call waiting and silence suppression is automatically disabled for both FAX and Modem pass-through as before. In addition, out-of-band DTMF Tx is disabled during modem or fax pass-through. Adaptive Jitter Buffer The Linksys ATA can buffer incoming voice packets to minimize out-of-order packet arrival. This process is known as jitter buffering. The jitter buffer size proactively adjusts or adapts in size, depending on changing network conditions.

Linksys ATA Administrator Guide

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 1 Introducing Linksys Analog Telephone Adapters Feature Descriptions The Linksys ATA has a Network Jitter Level control setting for each line of service. The jitter level decides how aggressively the Linksys ATA tries to shrink the jitter buffer over time to achieve a lower overall delay. If the jitter level is higher, it shrinks more gradually. If jitter level is lower, it shrinks more quickly. Other Features The following table summarizes other features provided by Linksys ATAs. Table 1-4 Linksys ATA Features Feature Description International Caller ID Delivery In addition to support of the Bellcore (FSK) and Swedish/Danish (DTMF) methods of Caller ID (CID) delivery, release 2.0 adds a large subset of ETSI-compliant methods to support international CID equipment. Different types of CID delivery method can be obtained by mixing-and-matching some of the steps as shown. Secure Calls A user (if enabled by service provider or administrator) has the option to make an outbound call secure in the sense that the audio packets in both directions are encrypted. Adjustable Audio Frames Per Packet This feature allows the user to set the number of audio frames contained in one RTP packet. Packets can be adjusted to contain from 1–10 audio frames. Increasing the number of packets decreases the bandwidth utilized, but it also increases delay and may affect voice quality. DTMF In-Band and Out-of-Band (RFC 2833) (SIP INFO *) The Linksys ATA may relay DTMF digits as out-of-band events to preserve the fidelity of the digits. This can enhance the reliability of DTMF transmission required by many IVR applications such as dial-up banking and airline information. Call Progress Tone Generation The Linksys ATA has configurable call progress tones. Parameters for each type of tone may include number of frequency components, frequency and amplitude of each component, and cadence information. Call Progress Tone Pass Through This feature allows the user to hear the call progress tones (such as ringing) that are generated from the far-end network. Full Duplex Audio Full-duplex is the ability to communicate in two directions simultaneously so that more than one person can speak at a time. Half-duplex means that only one person can talk at a time, like a CB radio or walkie-talkie, which is unnatural in normal free-flowing two-way communications. The Linksys ATA supports full-duplex audio. Echo Cancellation—Up to 8 ms Echo Tail The SPA3102 supports hybrid line echo cancellation. This feature uses the G.165 echo canceller to eliminate up to 8 ms of line echo. This feature does not provide acoustic echo cancellation on endpoint devices; that is, an end user speakerphone.

It includes the following topics: • Session Initiation Protocol, page 1-10 • Network Address Translation, page 1-10 Signaling Hook Flash Event The Linksys ATA can signal hook flash events to the remote party on a connected call. This feature can be used to provide advanced mid-call services with third-party-call-control. Depending on the features that the service provider offers using third-party-call-control, the following three Linksys ATA features may be disabled to correctly signal a hook-flash event to the softswitch: • Call Waiting Serv • Three Way Call Serv • Three Way Conf Serv You can configure the length of time allowed for detection of a hook flash using the Hook Flash Timer parameter on the Regional tab of the administration web server. Configurable Dial Plan with Interdigit Timers The Linksys ATA has three configurable interdigit timers: • Initial timeout (T)—Handset off hook, no digit pressed yet. • Long timeout (L)—One or more digits pressed, more digits needed to reach a valid number (as per the dial plan). • Short timeout (S)—Current dialed number is valid, but more digits would also lead to a valid number. Polarity Control The Linksys ATA allows the polarity to be set when a call is connected and when a call is disconnected. This feature is required to support some pay phone system and answering machines. Calling Party Control Calling Party Control (CPC) signals to the called party equipment that the calling party has hung up during a connected call by removing the voltage between the tip and ring momentarily. This feature is useful for auto-answer equipment, which then knows when to disengage. Report Generation and Event Logging The Linksys ATA reports a variety of status and error reports to assist service providers to diagnose problems and evaluate the performance of their services. The information can be queried by an authorized agent, using HTTP with digested authentication, for instance. The information may be organized as an XML page or HTML page. Syslog and Debug Server Records The Linksys ATA supports detailed logging of all activities for further debugging. The debug information may be sent to a configured Syslog server. Via the configuration parameters, the Linksys ATA allows some settings to select which type of activity/events should be logged, as for instance, a debug level setting.

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 1 Introducing Linksys Analog Telephone Adapters Technology Background Session Initiation Protocol Linksys ATAs are implemented using open standards, such as Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), allowing interoperation with all ITSPs supporting SIP. Figure 1-2 illustrates a SIP request for connection to another subscriber in the network. The requestor is called the user agent server (UAS), while the recipient is called the user agent client (UAC). Figure 1-2 SIP Requests and Responses In a SIP VoIP network, when the SIP proxy receives a request from a UAS for a connection and it does not know the location of the UAC, it forwards the message to another SIP proxy in the network. Once the UAC is located and the response is routed back to the UAS, a direct peer-to-peer session is established between the two UAs. The actual voice traffic is transmitted between UAs over dynamically assigned ports using the Real-time Protocol (RTP). Network Address Translation This section describes issues that arise when using a Linksys ATA on a network behind a network address translation (NAT) device. It includes the following topics: • NAT Overview, page 1-10 • NAT Types, page 1-11 • Simple Traversal of UDP Through NAT, page 1-12 • SIP-NAT Interoperation, page 1-12 NAT Overview Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple devices to share the same public, routable, IP address for establishing connections over the Internet. NAT is typically performed by a router that forwards packets between the Internet and the internal, private network. SIP UA SIP UA SIP Proxy SIP Proxy RTP 1 2 3 4 SIP Proxy

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 1 Introducing Linksys Analog Telephone Adapters Technology Background A typical application of a NAT is to allow all the devices in a subscriber home network to access the Internet through a router with a single public IP address assigned by an ISP. The IP header of the packets sent from the private network to the public network is substituted by NAT with the public IP address and a port assigned by the router. The receiver of the packets on the public network sees the packets as coming from the external address instead of the private address of the device. The association between a private address and port and a public address and port is called a NAT mapping. This mapping is maintained for a short period of time, that varies from a few seconds to several minutes. The expiration time is extended whenever the mapping is used to send a packet from the source device. Figure 1-3 NAT Support with Session Border Controller Provided by ITSP The ITSP may support NAT mapping using a Session Border Controller (see Figure 1-3). This is the preferred option because it eliminates the need for managing NAT on the Linksys ATA. If this is not available, you will need to discuss with the ITSP how to use the NAT Support Parameters provided by the Linksys ATA, such as and . NAT Types The different ways that NAT is implemented is sometimes divided into the following categories: • Full cone NAT—Also known as one-to-one NAT. All requests from the same internal IP address and port are mapped to the same external IP address and port. An external host can send a packet to the internal host, by sending a packet to the mapped external address • Restricted cone NAT—All requests from the same internal IP address and port are mapped to the same external IP address and port. Unlike a full cone NAT, an external host can send a packet to the internal host only if the internal host had previously sent a packet to it. • Port restricted cone NAT/symmetric NAT—Port restricted cone NAT or symmetric NAT is like a restricted cone NAT, but the restriction includes port numbers. Specifically, an external host can send a packet to a particular port on the internal host only if the internal host had previously sent a packet from that port to the external host.

Linksys ATA Administrator Guide

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 1 Introducing Linksys Analog Telephone Adapters Technology Background With symmetric NAT all requests from the same internal IP address and port to a specific destination IP address and port are mapped to a unique external source IP address and port. If the same internal host sends a packet with the same source address and port to a different destination, a different mapping is used. Only an external host that receives a packet can send a UDP packet back to the internal host. Simple Traversal of UDP Through NAT Simple Traversal of UDP through NATs (STUN) is a protocol defined by RFC 3489, that allows a client behind a NAT device to find out its public address, the type of NAT it is behind, and the port associated on the Internet connection with a particular local port. This information is used to set up UDP communication between two hosts that are both behind NAT routers. Open source STUN software can be obtained at the following website: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Open+Source+VOIP+Software STUN does not work with a symmetric NAT router. To determine the type of NAT your router uses, complete the following steps: Step 1 Enable debugging on the Linksys ATA: 1. Make sure you do not have firewall running on your PC that could block the syslog port (by default this is 514). 2. On the administration web server, System tab, set to the IP address and port number of your syslog server. Note that this address and port number has to be reachable from the Linksys ATA. 3. Set to 3 but you do not need to change the value of the parameter. 4. To capture SIP signaling messages, under the Line tab, set to Full. The output is named syslog.514.log. Step 2 To determine the type of NAT your router is using set to yes. Step 3 View the syslog messages to determine if your network uses symmetric NAT or not. SIP-NAT Interoperation In the case of SIP, the addresses where messages/data should be sent to a Linksys ATA system are embedded in the SIP messages sent by the device. If the Linksys ATA system is sitting behind a NAT device, the private IP address assigned to it is not usable for communications with the SIP entities outside the private network. Note If the ITSP offers an outbound NAT-Aware proxy, this discovers the public IP address from the remote endpoint and eliminates the need to modify the SIP message from the UAC. The Linksys ATA system must substitute the private IP address information with the proper external IP address/port in the mapping chosen by the underlying NAT to communicate with a particular public peer address/port. For this, the Linksys ATA system needs to perform the following tasks: • Discover the NAT mappings used to communicate with the peer.   This can be done with the help of an external device, such as a STUN server. A STUN server

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 1 Introducing Linksys Analog Telephone Adapters Where to Go From Here responds to a special NAT-Mapping-Discovery request by sending back a message to the source IP address/port of the request, where the message contains the source IP address/port of the original request. The Linksys ATA system can send this request when it first attempts to communicate with a SIP entity over the Internet. It then stores the mapping discovery results returned by the server. • Communicate the NAT mapping information to the external SIP entities.   If the entity is a SIP Registrar, the information should be carried in the Contact header that overwrites the private address/port information. If the entity is another SIP UA when establishing a call, the information should be carried in the Contact header as well as in the SDP embedded in SIP message bodies. The VIA header in outbound SIP requests might also need to be substituted with the public address if the UAS relies on it to route back responses. • Extend the discovered NAT mappings by sending keep-alive packets.   Because the mapping is alive only for a short period, the Linksys ATA system continues to send periodic keep-alive packets through the mapping to extend its validity as necessary.

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 2 Getting Started Establishing Connectivity Establishing Connectivity This section describes how to connect the Linksys ATA hardware. It includes the following topics: • Bandwidth Requirements, page 2-14 • Making the Physical Connections, page 2-15 Bandwidth Requirements Depending on how you have your IP phones configured, each call requires 55 to 110 kbps in each direction. Therefore, using G.729 as the voice codec setting, and with an average business-grade broadband Internet connection supporting 1.5 Mbps downstream and 384 kbps upstream, a total of seven (7) simultaneous conversations can be reliably supported with adequate bandwidth available for file downloads. Linksys recommends using the Linksys ATA with QoS-capable networking equipment that can prioritize the VoIP application traffic. QoS features are available on many Linksys data networking switches and routers. A QoS-enabled router prioritizes the packets going upstream to the ISP. Table 1-24 illustrates the bandwidth budget using different codecs. This table is based on the following assumptions: • Bandwidth Calculated with No Silence Suppression • 20 milliseconds of payload per RTP packet Note The use of silence suppression can reduce the average bandwidth budget by 30% or more. For more information about bandwidth calculation, refer to the following websites: Ethernet 1-3 Connect to local IP devices, such as PCs, using an Ethernet cable. Power Connect to the power supply.

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 2 Getting Started Connecting the SPA8000 The secondary modules (Module 2, 3, and 4) obtain configuration and firmware upgrades from the primary module and are not managed directly. The primary module routes all the SIP and RTP traffic to and from the secondary modules over the SPA8000 internal LAN, which also includes the AUX maintenance port. The AUX maintenance port cannot be used to forward IP traffic. It is designed to connect to the management functions on the SPA8000, such as the administration web server. The secondary modules are assigned IP addresses by the DHCP server that runs on the primary module. The primary module also performs Network Address Translation (NAT) and Port Address Translation (PAT) on the IP addresses and ports used by the secondary modules, translating them into addresses and port numbers that can be transmitted over the network connected to the Ethernet port. For proper operation, the service provider should use an Outbound Proxy to forward all voice traffic when the SPA8000 is located behind a router. If necessary, explicit port ranges can be specified for SIP and RTP for each of the four modules. When performing a firmware upgrade, either through remote provisioning or through the administration web server, the SPA8000 downloads and upgrades the primary module first. After successful upgrade of the primary module, the three secondary modules update their firmware image directly from the primary module. The primary module is also connected through the Ethernet port to the external local area network, or directly to the Internet. This modules receives its IP address through DHCP, or its address can be statically assigned using the IVR or the administration web server. To access the IVR, connect an analog telephone to the Phone 1 or Phone 2 port. To access the administration web server, connect a PC to the AUX port. Note In the illustration, one fax machine is connected to each pair of ports to illustrate that only one T.38 connection is supported by each of the four pairs of RJ-11 ports. Up to four fax machines can be connected to the SPA8000, but they must be distributed as shown. The secondary modules (Line 3/4, 5/6, and 7/8) are assigned IP addresses by an internal DCHP server provided by the SPA8000, and these addresses are not configurable. Note The SPA8000 is not designed to forward IP packets to devices connected to its AUX port and that configuration is not supported. Connectivity Requirements The SPA8000 can be connected to a local router through its LAN port, or directly to the Internet. Each phone connected to an RJ-11 (analog) port on the SPA8000 connects to other devices through SIP, which is transmitted over the IP network. In order to ensure connectivity between the devices connected to its FXS ports, the SPA8000 requires the following functionality to be supplied on the network connected to its Ethernet port: • Connection to an IP router with hairpinning support • Connection to an outbound Proxy server When a phone connected to a port on the SPA8000 communicates with another phone, it sends a SIP packet onto the internal LAN, which is then forwarded to the external local area network or directly to the Internet. The source address and source port on the original packet is assigned by the SPA8000

Linksys ATA Administrator Guide

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 2 Getting Started Using the Interactive Voice Response Interface DHCP server, and the address and port is translated by the SPA8000 using Network Address Translation (NAT) and Port Address Translation (PAT). The packet must then be routed back to the internal network on the SPA8000 by the local router or the ISP router. Problems can occur with calls between phones connected to the SPA8000 when an outbound proxy or a router with hairpinning support is not available. The SPA8000 cannot directly connect the two telephone devices, but requires a local or remote router to route the packet back to its destination on the local network from which it originated. The necessary routing can be provided by a router with hairpinning support, or by an outbound SIP proxy, which is typically provided by the Internet Telephony Service Provider (ITSP). When relying on the ITSP for interconnecting phones on the SPA8000, local phones connected to the SPA8000 are unable to communicate with each other if the Internet connection is not available for any reason. It is recommended you connect the SPA8000 to a local router that provides hairpinning support to prevent this problem. Using the Interactive Voice Response Interface This section describes how to read or write basic network configuration settings using a touchtone telephone connected to one of the FXS (RJ-11) phone ports of the Linksys ATA.

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 3 Configuring Linksys ATAs Web Interface URLs Web Interface URLs The Linksys ATA web interface supports several functions through special URLs: • Upgrade • Reboot • Resync Administrator account privilege is needed for these functions. Upgrade URL The Upgrade URL lets you upgrade the Linksys ATA to the firmware specified by the URL, which can identify either a TFTP or HTTP server. Note If the value of the parameter in the Provisioning page is No, you cannot upgrade the Linksys ATA even if the web page indicates otherwise. The syntax of the Upgrade URL is as follows: • http://spa-ip-addr/admin/upgrade?[protocol://][server-name[:port]][/firmware-pathname] Both HTTP and TFTP are supported for the upgrade operation. If no protocol is specified, TFTP is assumed. If no server-name is specified, the host that requests the URL is used as server-name. If no port specified, the default port of the protocol is used. (69 for TFTP or 80 for HTTP) The firmware-pathname is typically the file name of the binary located in a directory on the TFTP or HTTP server. If no firmware-pathname is specified, /spa.bin is assumed, as in the following example: http://192.168.2.217/admin/upgrade?tftp://192.168.2.251/spa.bin Resync URL The Resync URL lets you force the Linksys ATA to do a resync to a profile specified in the URL, which can identify either a TFTP, HTTP, or HTTPS server. Note The SPA resyncs only when it is idle. The syntax of the Resync URL is as follows: http://spa-ip-addr/admin/resync?[[protocol://][server-name[:port]]/profile-pathname] If no parameter follows /resync?, the Profile Rule setting from the Provisioning page is used. If no protocol is specified, TFTP is assumed. If no server-name is specified, the host that requests the URL is used as server-name. If no port is specified, the default port is used (69 for TFTP, 80 for HTTP, and 443 for HTTPS). The profile-path is the path to the new profile with which to resync, for example: http://192.168.2.217admin/resync?tftp://192.168.2.251/spaconf.cfg

Linksys ATA Administrator Guide

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 3 Configuring Linksys ATAs Provisioning Reboot URL The Reboot URL lets you reboot the Linksys ATA. Note The Linksys ATA reboots only when it is idle. The Reboot URL is http://spa-ip-addr/admin/reboot. Provisioning This section describes the provisioning functionality of the Linksys ATA. This section includes the following topics: • Provisioning Capabilities, page 3-4 • Configuration Profile, page 3-4 For detailed information about provisioning the Linksys ATA, refer to the Linksys SPA Provisioning Guide. Provisioning Capabilities The Linksys ATA provides for secure provisioning and remote upgrade. Provisioning is achieved through configuration profiles transferred to the device via TFTP, HTTP, or HTTPS. The Linksys ATA can be configured to automatically resync its internal configuration state to a remote profile periodically and on power up. The automatic resyncs are controlled by configuring the desired profile URL into the device. The Linksys ATA accepts profiles in XML format, or alternatively in a proprietary binary format, which is generated by a profile compiler tool available from Linksys. The Linksys ATA supports up to 256-bit symmetric key encryption of profiles. For the initial transfer of the profile encryption key (initial provisioning stage), the Linksys ATA can receive a profile from an encrypted channel (HTTPS with client authentication), or it can resync to a binary profile generated by the Linksys-supplied profile compiler. In the latter case, the profile compiler can encrypt the profile specifically for the target Linksys ATA, without requiring an explicit key exchange. Remote firmware upgrade is achieved via TFTP or HTTP (firmware upgrades using HTTPS are not supported). Remote upgrades are controlled by configuring the desired firmware image URL into the Linksys ATA via a remote profile resync. For further information about remote provisioning refer to the Linksys SPA Provisioning Guide. Configuration Profile The Linksys ATA configuration profile can be either an XML file or a binary file with a proprietary format. The XML file consists of a series of elements (one per configuration parameter), encapsulated within the element tags … . The encapsulated elements specify values for individual parameters. Here is an example of a valid XML profile: some secret

Linksys ATA Administrator Guide

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 3 Configuring Linksys ATAs Configuring a Dial Plan Yes Binary format profiles contain Linksys ATA parameter values and user access permissions for the parameters. By convention, the profile uses the extension .cfg (for example, spa2102.cfg). The Linksys Profile Compiler (SPC) tool compiles a plain-text file containing parameter-value pairs into a properly formatted and encrypted .cfg file. The SPC tool is available from Linksys for the Win32 environment and Linux-i386-elf environment. Requests for SPC tools compiled on other platforms are evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Please contact your Linksys sales representative for further information about obtaining the SPC tool. The syntax of the plain-text file accepted by the profile compiler is a series of parameter-value pairs, with the value in double quotes. Each parameter-value pair is followed by a semicolon. Here is an example of a valid text source profile for input to the SPC tool: Admin_Passwd “some secret”; Upgrade_Enable “Yes”; Refer to the Linksys SPA Provisioning Guide for further details. The names of parameters in XML profiles can generally be inferred from the Linksys ATA configuration Web pages, by substituting underscores (_) for spaces and other control characters. Further, to distinguish between Lines 1, 2, 3, and 4, corresponding parameter names are augmented by the strings _1_, _2_, _3_, and _4_. For example, Line 1 Proxy is named Proxy_1_ in XML profiles. Parameters in the case of source text files for the SPC tool are similarly named, except that to differentiate Line 1, 2, 3, and 4, the appended strings ([1], [2], [3], or [4]) are used. For example, the Line 1 Proxy is named Proxy[1] in source text profiles for input to the SPC. Configuring a Dial Plan The Linksys ATA allows each line to be configured with a distinct dial plan. The dial plan specifies how to interpret digit sequences dialed by the user, and how to convert those sequences into an outbound dial string. The Linksys ATA syntax for the dial plan closely resembles the corresponding syntax specified by MGCP and MEGACO. Some extensions are added that are useful in an end-point. Note When using the SPA3102 or AG310 as a PSTN gateway, gateway calls can be restricted on a per-caller basis using dial plans. Up to eight dial plans can be configured to restrict gateway calls in either direction. Dial Plan Digit Sequences The plans contain a series of digit sequences, separated by a vertical bar ( | ). The collection of sequences is enclosed in parentheses. When a user dials a series of digits, each sequence in the dial plan is tested as a possible match. The matching sequences form a set of candidate digit sequences. As more digits are entered by the user, the set of candidates diminishes until only one or none are valid. Any one of a set of terminating events triggers the Linksys ATA to either accept the user-dialed sequence and transmit it to initiate a call, or else to reject it as invalid. The terminating events are as follows: • No candidate sequences remain—The number is rejected.

Linksys ATA Administrator Guide

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 3 Configuring Linksys ATAs Configuring a Dial Plan • Only one candidate sequence remains, and it has been matched completely—The number is accepted and transmitted after any transformations indicated by the dial plan, unless the sequence is barred by the dial plan, in which case the number is rejected. • A timeout occurs—The digit sequence is accepted and transmitted as dialed if incomplete, or transformed as per the dial plan if complete. • An explicit “send” (user presses the # key)—The digit sequence is accepted and transmitted as dialed if incomplete, or transformed as according to the dial plan if complete. The time-out duration depends on the matching state. If no candidate sequences are as yet complete (as dialed), the Interdigit_Long_Timeout applies. If a candidate sequence is complete, but there exists one or more incomplete candidates, then the applies. The following table describes the entries to use when programming the dial plan. Note Early production versions of the SPA2102 supported dual-line telephones on a single FXS port. A subsequent hardware change revised the FXS ports on the SPA2102 and this function is to be reserved for future development. Dial Plan Rules This section describes the rules that apply to configuring and interpreting dial plans. Note White space is ignored, but may be used for readability. Digit Sequence Syntax Each digit sequence within the dial plan consists of a series of elements, which are individually matched to the keys pressed by the user. Elements can be one of the following: • Individual keys 0, 1, 2 . . . 9, *, #. • The letter x matches any one numeric digit (0 .. 9) • A subset of keys within brackets (allows ranges): for example, [389] means 3 or 8 or 9) – Numeric ranges (n-n) are allowed within the brackets: for example, [2-9] means any digit from 2 through 9) Table 1-26 Dial Plan Entries Dial Plan Entry Function *xx Allows arbitrary 2-digit star code [3469]11 Allows x11 sequences (for example, 311, 411, 611, 911) 0 Dials operator 00 Dials international operator [2-9]xxxxxx Dials US local number 1xxx[2-9]xxxxxx Dials US 1 + 10-digit long distance number xxxxxxxxxx. Dials all other numbers, including international long distance

Linksys ATA Administrator Guide

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 3 Configuring Linksys ATAs Configuring a Dial Plan – Ranges can be combined with other keys: e.g. [235-8*] means 2 or 3 or 5 or 6 or 7 or 8 or *. Element Repetition Any element can be repeated zero or more times by appending a period (.) to the element. Thus, “01.” matches “0”, “01”, “011”, “0111”, … and so on. Sub-sequence Substitution A sub-sequence of keys (possibly empty) can be automatically replaced with a different sub-sequence using an angle bracket notation: < dialed-subsequence : transmitted-subsequence >. So, for example, “<8:1650>xxxxxxx” would match “85551212” and transmit “16505551212”. Inter-sequence Tones An “outside line” dial tone can be generated within a sequence by appending a comma (,) between digits. Thus, the sequence “9, 1xxxxxxxxxx” sounds an “outside line” dial tone after the user presses 9, until the 1 is pressed. Number Barring A sequence can be barred (rejected) by placing a ! character at the end of the sequence. Thus, “1900xxxxxxx!” automatically rejects all 900 area code numbers from being dialed. Interdigit Timer Master Override The long and short interdigit timers can be changed in the dial plan (affecting a specific line) by preceding the entire plan with the following syntax: • Long interdigit timer: L : delay-value , • Short interdigit timer: S : delay-value , Thus, “L:8,( . . . )” would set the interdigit long timeout to 8 seconds for the line associated with this dial plan. And, “L:8,S:4,( . . . )” would override both the long and the short time-out values. Local Timer Overrides The long and short time-out values can be changed for a particular sequence starting at a particular point in the sequence. The syntax for long timer override is: L delay-value. Note the terminating space character. The specified delay-value is measured in seconds. Similarly, to change the short timer override, use: S delay-value. Pause A sequence may require an explicit pause of some duration before continuing to dial digits, in order for the sequence to match. The syntax for this is similar to the timer override syntax: P delay-value . The delay-value is measured in seconds.

Linksys ATA Administrator Guide

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 3 Configuring Linksys ATAs Configuring a Dial Plan This syntax allows for the implementation of Hot-Line and Warm-Line services. To achieve this, one sequence in the plan must start with a pause, with a 0 delay for a Hot Line, and a non-zero delay for a Warm Line. Implicit Sequences The Linksys ATA implicitly appends the vertical code sequences entered in the administration web server Regional parameter settings to the end of the dial plan for both Line 1 and Line 2. Likewise, if is enabled, then IP dialing is also accepted on the associated line. Dial Plan Examples The following dial plan accepts only US-style 1 + area-code + local-number, with no restrictions on the area code and number: ( 1 xxx xxxxxxx ) The following also allows 7-digit US-style dialing, and automatically inserts a 1 + 212 (local area code) in the transmitted number. ( 1 xxx xxxxxxx | <:1212> xxxxxxx ) For an office environment, the following plan requires a user to dial 8 as a prefix for local calls and 9 as a prefix for long distance. In either case, an “outside line” tone is played after the initial 8 or 9, and neither prefix is transmitted when initiating the call. ( <9,:> 1 xxx xxxxxxx | <8,:1212> xxxxxxx ) The following allows only placing international calls (011 call), with an arbitrary number of digits past a required 5 digit minimum, and also allows calling an international call operator (00). In addition, it lengthens the default short interdigit timeout to 4 seconds. S:4, ( 00 | 011 xxxxx x. ) The following allows only US-style 1 + area-code + local-number, but disallows area codes and local numbers starting with 0 or 1. It also allows 411, 911, and operator calls (0). ( 0 | [49]11 | 1 [2-9]xx [2-9]xxxxxx ) The following allows US-style long distance, but blocks 9xx area codes: ( 1 [2-8]xx [2-9]xxxxxx ) The following allows arbitrary long distance dialing, but explicitly blocks the 947 area code. ( 1 947 xxxxxxx ! | 1 xxx xxxxxxx ) The following implements a hot line phone, which automatically calls 1 212 5551234. ( S0 <:12125551234> ) The following provides a warm line to a local office operator (1000) after five seconds, unless a four-digit extension is dialed by the user. ( P5 <:1000> | xxxx )

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 3 Configuring Linksys ATAs Secure Call Implementation Secure Call Implementation This section describes secure call implementation with a Linksys ATA. It includes the following topics: • Enabling Secure Calls, page 3-10 • Secure Call Details, page 3-10 • Using a Mini-Certificate, page 3-11 • Generating a Mini-Certificate, page 3-11 Enabling Secure Calls A secure call is established in two stages. The first stage is no different from normal call setup. The second stage starts after the call is established in the normal way with both sides ready to stream RTP packets. I In the second stage, the two parties exchange information to determine if the current call can switch over to the secure mode. The information is transported by base64 encoding embedded in the message body of SIP INFO requests, and responses using a proprietary format. If the second stage is successful, the Linksys ATA plays a special Secure Call Indication Tone for a short time to indicate to both parties that the call is secured and that RTP traffic in both directions is being encrypted. If the user has a phone that supports call waiting caller ID (CIDCW) and that service is enabled, the CID will be updated with the information extracted from the Mini-Certificate received from the remote party. The Name field of the CID will be prepended with a ‘$’ symbol. Both parties can verify the name and number to ensure the identity of the remote party. The signing agent is implicit and must be the same for all Linksys ATAs that communicate securely with each other. The public key of the signing agent is pre-configured into the Linksys ATA by the administrator and is used by the Linksys ATA to verify the Mini-Certificate of its peer. The Mini-Certificate is valid if it has not expired, and it has a valid signature. The Linksys ATA can be configured so that, by default, all outbound calls are either secure or not secure. If secure by default, the user has the option to disable security when making a call by dialing *19 before dialing the target number. If not secure by default, the user can make a secure outbound call by dialing *18 before dialing the target number. However, the user cannot force inbound calls to be secure or not secure; that depends on whether the caller has security enabled or not. The Linksys ATA will not switch to secure mode if the CID of the called party from its Mini-Certificate does not agree with the user-id used in making the outbound call. The Linksys ATA performs this check after receiving the Mini-Certificate of the called party Secure Call Details Looking at the second stage of setting up a secure call in greater detail, this stage can be further divided into two steps. 1. The caller sends a “Caller Hello” message (base64 encoded and embedded in the message body of a SIP INFO request) to the called party with the following information: • Message ID (4B) • Version and flags (4B) • SSRC of the encrypted stream (4B)

Linksys ATA Administrator Guide

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 3 Configuring Linksys ATAs Secure Call Implementation • Mini-Certificate (252B) Upon receiving the Caller Hello, the called party responds with a Callee Hello message (base64 encoded and embedded in the message body of a SIP response to the caller’s INFO request) with similar information, if the Caller Hello message is valid. The caller then examines the Callee Hello and proceeds to the next step if the message is valid. 2. The caller sends the “Caller Final” message to the called party with the following information: • Message ID (4B) • Encrypted Master Key (16B or 128b) • Encrypted Master Salt (16B or 128b) The Master Key and Master Salt are encrypted with the public key from the called party mini-certificate. The Master Key and Master Salt are used by both ends for deriving session keys to encrypt subsequent RTP packets. The called party then responds with a Callee Final message (which is an empty message). Using a Mini-Certificate The Linksys ATA Mini-Certificate (MC) contains the following information: • User Name (32B) • User ID or Phone Number (16B) • Expiration Date (12B) • Public Key (512b or 64B) • Signature (1024b or 512B) The MC has a 512-bit public key used for establishing secure calls. The administrator must provision each subscriber of the secure call service with an MC and the corresponding 512-bit private key. The MC is signed with a 1024-bit private key of the service provider, which acts as the CA of the MC. The 1024-bit public key of the CA signing the MC must also be provisioned for each subscriber. The CA public key is used by the Linksys ATA to verify the MC received from the other end. If the MC is invalid, the Linksys ATA will not switch to secure mode. The MC and the 1024-bit CA public key are concatenated and base64 encoded into the single parameter . The 512-bit private key is base64 encoded into the parameter, which should be kept secret, like a password. Because the secure call establishment relies on exchange of information embedded in message bodies of SIP INFO requests/responses, the service provider must ensure that the network infrastructure allows the SIP INFO messages to pass through with the message body unmodified. Generating a Mini-Certificate Linksys provides a configuration tool called gen_mc for the generation of MC and private keys with the following syntax: gen_mc ca-key user-name user-id expire-date Where: • ca-key is a text file with the base64 encoded 1024-bit CA private/public key pairs for signing/verifying the MC, such as the following:

If the remote client indicates that it can still receive audio while the call is holding, the Linksys ATA can be configured to contact an auto-answering streaming audio server (SAS) to stream audio to the holding party. When used this way, the SAS is referred to as an MOH Server.

Linksys ATA Administrator Guide

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 3 Configuring Linksys ATAs Configuring a Streaming Audio Server Using a Streaming Audio Server The SAS feature lets you use attach an audio source to one of the Linksys ATA FXS ports (Phone 1 or Phone 2 on the PAP2T) and use it as a streaming audio source device. If the Linksys ATA has multiple FXS ports, either or both of the associated lines (Line 1 and Line 2 on the PAP2T) can be configured as an SAS server. To connect an external music source to an FXS port, use a media signal adapter, which provides a line in from a media source and a RJ-11 port for connecting to the FXS port on the Linksys ATA. The following is a URL for a device that has been tested with Linksys ATAs: http://www.neogadgets.com/cart/cart.php?target=product&product_id=17&substring=music+coupler After installing the music source using the media signal adapter and completing the required configuration on the Linksys ATA , when the line is called and the FXS port is off hook, the Linksys ATA answers the call automatically and streams audio to the caller. If the FXS port is on-hook when the incoming call arrives, the Linksys ATA replies with a SIP 503 response code (Service Not Available). The SAS line will not ring for incoming calls even if the attached equipment is on-hook. If an incoming call is auto-answered, but later the FXS port changes to on-hook, the SPA does not terminate the call but continues to stream silence packets to the caller. If an incoming call arrives when the SAS line has reached full capacity, the SPA replies with a SIP 486 response (Busy Here). The SAS line can be set up to refresh each streaming audio session periodically using a SIP re-INVITE message, which detects if the connection to the caller is down. If the caller does not respond to the refresh message, the SAS line terminates the call so that the streaming resource can be used for other callers. Each SAS server can maintain up to five simultaneous calls. If the second line on the Linksys ATA is disabled, then the SAS line can maintain up to 10 simultaneous calls. Further incoming calls will receive a busy signal (SIP 486 Response). If no calls are in session, battery is removed from tip-and-ring of the FXS port. Some audio source devices have an LED to indicate the battery status. This can be used as a visual indication as to whether audio streaming is in progress. Set up the Proxy and Subscriber Information for the SAS Line as you normally would with a regular user account. Call Forwarding, Call Screening, Call Blocking, DND, and Caller-ID Delivery features are not available on an SAS line. Using the IVR with an SAS Line The IVR can still be used on an SAS line, but the user needs to follow the following steps: Step 1 Power off the Linksys ATA. Step 2 Connect a phone to the port and make sure the phone is on-hook. Step 3 Power on the Linksys ATA. Step 4 Pick up handset and press * * * * to invoke IVR in the usual way.

Linksys ATA Administrator Guide

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 3 Configuring Linksys ATAs Configuring a Streaming Audio Server If the Linksys ATA boots and finds that the SAS line is on-hook, it will not remove battery from the line so that IVR may be used. But if the Linksys ATA boots up and finds that the SAS line is off-hook, it will remove battery from the line because no audio session is in progress. Example SAS with MOH Figure 1-15 MOH Application with a Linksys ATA Line Configured as an SAS The following configuration examples are based on the configuration shown in Figure 1-15.

Linksys ATA Administrator Guide

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 3 Configuring Linksys ATAs Using a FAX Machine with the SPA2102 or SPA8000 Step 1 Upgrade the ATA firmware to the latest version Step 2 Ensure that you have enough bandwidth for uplink and downlink. • For G.711 fallback, it is recommend to have ~100Kbps. • For T.38, allocate at least 50 kbps. Step 3 To optimize G.711 fallback fax completion rates, use the following settings on the Line tab of the Linksys ATA: • Network Jitter Buffer: very high • Jitter buffer adjustment: disable • Call Waiting: no • 3 Way Calling: no • Echo Canceller: no • Silence suppression: no • Preferred Codec: G.711 • Use pref. codec only: yes Step 4 If you are using a Cisco media gateway for PSTN termination, disable T.38 (fax relay) and enable fax using modem passthrough. For example: modem passthrough nse payload-type 110 codec g711ulaw fax rate disable fax protocol pass-through g711ulaw Step 5 Enable T.38 fax on the SPA 2102 by configuring the following parameter on the Line tab for the FXS port to which the FAX machine is connected: FAX_Passthru_Method: ReINVITE Note If a T.38 call cannot be set-up, then the call should automatically revert to G.711 fallback. Step 6 If you are using a Cisco media gateway use the following settings: Make sure the Cisco gateway is correctly configured for T.38 with the SPA dial peer. For example: fax protocol T38 fax rate voice fax-relay ecm disable fax nsf 000000 no vad Troubleshooting If have problems sending or receiving faxes, complete the following steps: Step 1 Send a test Fax in a controlled environment between two Linksys ATAs.

Step 5 Enable and capture the debug log. For instructions, refer to Item 4. in “Troubleshooting and Configuration FAQ” at the end of this chapter. Step 6 Identify the type of Fax machine connected to the ATA. Step 7 Contact technical support. If you are an end user of Linksys VoIP products, contact the reseller or Internet telephony service provider (ITSP) that supplied the equipment. If you are an authorized Linksys Voice System partner, contact Linksys technical support. Managing Caller ID Service The choice of caller ID (CID) method affects the following features: • On Hook Caller ID Associated with Ringing – This type of Caller ID is used for incoming calls when the attached phone is on hook. See figure below (a) – (c). All CID methods can be applied for this type of CID. • On Hook Caller ID Not Associated with Ringing – This feature is used for send VMWI signal to the phone to turn the message waiting light on and off (see Figure 1 (d) and (e)). This is available only for FSK-based CID methods: (Bellcore, ETSI FSK, and ETSI FSK With PR). • Off Hook Caller ID – This is used to delivery caller-id on incoming calls when the attached phone is off hook (see Figure 1-17). This can be call waiting caller ID (CIDCW) or to notify the user that the far end party identity has changed or updated (such as due to a call transfer). This is available only for FSK-based CID methods: (Bellcore, ETSI FSK, and ETSI FSK With PR).

This is a hard refresh, which forces Windows Explorer to load new webpages, not cached ones. C. Click Tools. Click Internet Options. Click the Security tab. Click the Default level button. Make sure the security level is Medium or lower. Then click the OK button. 3. How do I save my current SPA configuration? Currently, the only way is to do HTTPGET from an HTTP client, from which you get the entire HTML page. Alternatively, from your browser you can select File > Save as > HTML from any of the administration web server pages. Do this in Admin, Advanced mode. This saves all the tabs into one HTML file. This HTML file is helpful to provide to our support team when you have a problem or technical question. 4. How do I debug my SPA? Is there a syslog? SPA sends out debug information via syslog to a syslog server. The ports can be configured (by default the port is 514). A. Make sure you do not have firewall running on your PC that could block port 514. B. On the administration web server System tab, set as the IP address and port number of your syslog server. Note that this address has to be reachable from the Linksys ATA). C. Also, set to 3. You do not need to change the value of the parameter. D. To capture SIP signaling messages, under the Line tab, set to Full.  The file output is syslog..log (for the default port setting, syslog.514.log) 5. How do I access the Linksys ATA if I forget my password? By default, the User and Admin accounts have no password. If the ITSP set the password for either account and you do not know what it is, you need to contact the ITSP. If the password for the user account was configured after you received the Linksys ATA, you can reset the device to the user factory default, which preserves any provisioning completed by the ITSP. If the Admin account needs to be reset, you have to perform a full factory reset, which also erases any provisioning. To reset the Linksys ATA to the factory defaults, perform the following steps: A. Connect an analog phone to the Linksys ATA and access the IVR by pressing ****. B. Press the appropriate code to reset the unit: • Press 877778# to reset the unit to the defaults as it shipped from the ITSP. This will reset the User account password to the default of blank. • Press 73738# to perform a full reset of unit to the defaults as it shipped from Linksys. This will reset the Admin account password to the default of blank. C. Press 1 to confirm the operation.  Press * to cancel the operation. D. Login to the unit using the User or Admin account without a password and reconfigure the unit as necessary. 6. My Linksys ATA is behind a NAT device or firewall and I’m unable to make a call or I’m only receiving a one-way connection. What should I do? A. Configure your router to port forward “TCP port 80" to the ip address currently being used by SPA. If you do this often, we suggest that you use static IP address for the SPA, instead of DHCP. (For help with port forwarding, consult your router documentation) B. On the Line tab of the administration web server, change the value of to yes. On the SIP tab; change to yes, and to the IP address of your router.

Make sure you are not blocking the UDP PORT 5060,5061 and port for UDP packets in the range of 16384-16482. Also, disable “SPI” if this feature is provided by your firewall. Identify the SIP server to which the Linksys ATA is registering, if it supports NAT, using the parameter. D. Add a STUN server to allow traversal of UDP packets through the NAT device. On the SIP tab of the administration web server, set to yes, and enter the IP address of the STUN server in .  STUN (Simple Traversal of UDP through NATs) is a protocol defined by RFC 3489, that allows a client behind a NAT device to find out its public address, the type of NAT it is behind, and the port associated on the Internet connection with a particular local port. This information is used to set up UDP communication between two hosts that are both behind NAT routers. Open source STUN software can be obtained at the following website: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Open+Source+VOIP+Software Note STUN does not work with a symmetric NAT router. Enable debug through syslog (see FAQ#10), and set to yes. The messages indicate whether you have symmetric NAT or not.

Document Version 3.1 C H A P T E R 4 Configuring the PSTN Gateway (FXO) This chapter describes how to configure the PSTN gateway provided by Analog Telephone Adapters (ATAs) with one or more FXO ports, which includes the AG310 and SPA3102. It includes the following sections: • Overview, page 4-1 • How VoIP-To-PSTN Calls Work, page 4-2 • How PSTN-To-VoIP Calls Work, page 4-4 • Configuring VoIP Failover to PSTN, page 4-7 • Sharing One VoIP Account Between the FXS and PSTN Lines, page 4-7 • Other Options, page 4-7 • Call Scenarios, page 4-8 Note Througout this chapter, when references are made to the software configuration of the SPA3102, the information also applies to the AG310. The AG310 provides the same functionality as the SPA3102, as well as an ADSL modem and a four-port Ethernet switch. Overview The SPA3102 and AG310 have the following ports for connection to telephony devices: • FXS port (Phone)—Connected to a standard analog telephone or fax machine, configured using the Line tab • FXO port (Line)—Connected to a standard telephone wall jack for connectivity to the PSTN, configured using the PSTN Line tab Line 1 does not provide a gateway because it provides only VoIP service. The VoIP-To-PSTN calling function is referred to as a PSTN gateway, and PSTN-To-VoIP calling function as a VoIP gateway. Note the following definitions: • VoIP caller—One who calls the AG310 via VoIP to obtain PSTN service • VoIP user—VoIP caller that has a user account (user-id and password) on the AG310 • PSTN caller—One who calls the AG310 from the PSTN to obtain VoIP service

Linksys ATA Administrator Guide

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 4 Configuring the PSTN Gateway (FXO) How VoIP-To-PSTN Calls Work Line 1 can be configured with a regular VoIP account and can be used in the same way as the Line 1 of any Linksys ATA. With the SPA3102 and AG310, a second VoIP account can be configured to support PSTN gateway calls exclusively. A different SIP port should be assigned to Line 1 and the PSTN Line. The same VoIP account may be used for both Line 1 and the PSTN Line if a different SIP port is assigned to each. VoIP callers can be authenticated by one of the following methods: • No Authentication—All callers are accepted for service • PIN—Caller is prompted to enter a PIN right after the call is answered • HTTP digest—SIP INVITE must contain a valid authorization header PSTN callers can be authenticated by one of the following methods: • No authentication—All callers are accepted for service • PIN—Caller is prompted to enter a PIN right after the call is answered How VoIP-To-PSTN Calls Work To obtain PSTN services through the SPA3102, the VoIP caller establishes a connection with the PSTN Line by way of a standard SIP INVITE request addressed to the PSTN Line. The PSTN Line can be configured to support one-stage and two-stage dialing as described in the following sections. One-Stage Dialing The Request-URI of the INVITE to the PSTN Line should have the form @, where is the number dialed by the VoIP caller, and is a valid address of the SPA3102, such as 10.0.0.100:5061. If the FXO port is currently in use (off-hook) or the PSTN line is being used by another extension, the SPA3102 replies to the INVITE with a 503 response. Otherwise, it compares the with the of the PSTN Line. If they are the same, the SPA3102 interprets this as a request for two-stage dialing (see the “Two-Stage Dialing” section on page 4-3). If they are different, the SPA3102 processes the using the corresponding . If dial plan processing fails, the SPA3102 replies with a 403 response. Otherwise, it replies with a 200 and at the same time takes the FXO port off hook and dials the target number returned after processing the dial plan. Note If on the PSTN Line is blank, should be disabled for the PSTN Line. If HTTP Digest Authentication is enabled, the SPA3102 challenges the INVITE with a 401 response if it does not have a valid Authorization header. The Authorization header should include a parameter, where n refers to one of eight VoIP user accounts that can be configured on the SPA3102. The credentials are computed based on the corresponding password using Message Digest 5 (MD5). The must match one of the VoIP accounts stored on the SPA3102. Each VoIP user account contains the information listed in Table 1-27.

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 4 Configuring the PSTN Gateway (FXO) How VoIP-To-PSTN Calls Work Note If Authentication is disabled, a default dial plan is used for all unknown VoIP users. Two-Stage Dialing In two-stage dialing, the SPA3102 takes the FXO port off-hook but does not automatically dial any digits after accepting the call. To invoke two-stage dialing, the VoIP caller should INVITE the PSTN Line without the user-id in the Request-URI or with a user-id that matches exactly the of the PSTN Line. A different user-id in the Request-URI is treated as a request for one-stage dialing if one-stage dialing is enabled, or dropped by the SPA3102 (as if no user-id is given) if one-stage dialing is disabled. Note If Authentication is disabled, a default dial plan is assigned to all VoIP callers. HTTP Digest Authentication can be also used for two-stage dialing, as in one-stage dialing. If using HTTP Digest Authentication or Authentication is disabled, the VoIP caller should hear the PSTN dial tone right after the call is answered (by a SIP 200 response). If PIN Authentication is enabled, the VoIP caller is prompted to enter a PIN number after the SPA3102 answers the call. The PIN number must end with a # key. The inter-PIN-digit timeout is 10 seconds (not configurable). Up to eight VoIP caller PIN numbers can be configured on the SPA3102. A dial plan can be selected for each PIN number. If the caller enters a wrong PIN or the SPA3102 times out waiting for more PIN digits, the SPA3102 tears down the call immediately with a BYE request. Note When the source address of the INVITE is 127.0.0.1, authentication is automatically disabled because this is a call by the local user. This applies to both one-stage and two-stage dialing. Table 1-28 lists the parameters used in two-stage dialing. Table 1-27 VoIP User Account Information Parameter Group Description Values User ID 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/ 8 PSTN Line The username value. 31-character string Password 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/ 8 PSTN Line The password value. 31-character string User 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/ 8 DP PSTN Line Specifies the dial plan to be used for this VoIP user.

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 4 Configuring the PSTN Gateway (FXO) How PSTN-To-VoIP Calls Work How PSTN-To-VoIP Calls Work PSTN-To-VoIP calls can be made with two-stage dialing only. The only authentication method available is the PIN method. The SPA3102 takes the FXO port off hook after a configurable number of rings. If PIN Authentication is enabled, it prompts the caller to enter the PIN number followed by a # key. The Inter-PIN-digit timeout is set at 10 seconds. Up to eight PSTN PIN numbers can be configured in the SPA3102. If the given PIN does not match any of the PSTN PIN values, the SPA3102 plays the reorder tone to the FXO port for up to 10 seconds, and then takes the FXO port on-hook. If the given PIN matches one of PSTN PIN values, the SPA3102 plays dial tone to the FXO port and is ready to accept digits for the target VoIP number from the PSTN caller. The collected digits are processed by the dial plan associated with the PIN number. Note If Authentication is disabled, a default dial plan is used for all PSTN callers. Terminating Gateway Calls There are two call legs in a PSTN gateway call: the PSTN call leg and the VoIP call leg. A gateway call is terminated when either call leg is ended. The SPA3102 takes the FXO port on-hook when the call terminates so the PSTN line can be used again. The SPA3102 detects that the PSTN call leg is ended when one of the following conditions occurs during a call: • The PSTN Line voltage drops to a very low value (this occurs if the line is disconnected from the PSTN service or if the PSTN switch provides a CPC signal) • A polarity reversal or disconnect tone is detected at the FXO port • When there is no voice activity for a configurable period of time in either direction at the FXO port When any of the above occurs, the SPA3102 takes the FXO port on hook and sends a BYE request to end the VoIP call leg. On the other hand, when the SPA3102 receives a SIP BYE from the VoIP during a call, it takes the FXO port on hook to end the PSTN call leg. In addition, the SPA3102 can also send a refresh signal periodically to the VoIP call leg to determine whether the call leg is still up. If a refresh operation fails, the SPA3102 ends both call legs. Table 1-29 lists parameters for terminating gateway call parameters. Table 1-28 Two-Stage Dialing Parameter Group Description Values VoIP Caller 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8 PIN PSTN Line The PIN for VoIP Caller 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8. 31-character string VoIP Caller 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8 DP PSTN Line Specifies which dial plan to be used for this VoIP caller.

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 4 Configuring the PSTN Gateway (FXO) How PSTN-To-VoIP Calls Work VoIP Outbound Call Routing Calls made from Line 1 are routed through the configured Line 1 service provider, by default. You can override this behavior by IP dialing, through which the calls can be routed to any IP address entered by the user. SPA3102 allows flexible call routing with four sets of gateway parameters and configurable dial plans. Table 1-30 lists VoIP outbound call routing parameters. Table 1-29 Terminating Gateway Call Parameters Parameter Group Description Values Detect CPC: PSTN Line If yes, SPA3102 detects CPC as a disconnect signal. Default = Yes Yes or No Detect Long Silence: PSTN Line If yes, SPA3102 detects prolonged silence period as a disconnect signal. Default = Yes Yes or No Long Silence Duration: PSTN Line The minimum duration of continuous silence before the SPA3102 disconnects the call, if is enabled. Default = 30 (s) 10-255 Disconnect Tone: PSTN Line Tone Script of the disconnect tone to detect. Default = “480@-30,620@-30;4(.25/.25/1+2)”. Note: The SPA3102 supports two frequency components. If the tone has only one frequency, use the same value for both frequencies. Each cadence segment must have the same frequency. The level value is the threshold to detect each tone. The total duration is the minimum duration of the tone to be recognized as the disconnect tone ToneScript Detect Polarity Reversal: PSTN Line If yes, SPA3102 interprets polarity reversal as a disconnect signal. On an inbound PSTN call, SPA3102 disconnects on the first polarity reversal. On an outbound PSTN call, SPA3102 disconnects on the second polarity reversal (because the first polarity reversal indicates the outbound call is connected). Default = Yes Yes or No Detect Disconnect Tone: PSTN Line If yes, SPA3102 interprets the disconnect tone as specified in as the disconnect signal. Default = Yes Yes or No Silence Threshold: PSTN Line This is the signal energy threshold. Below this threshold is considered silence. Default = medium very low, low, medium, high, very high

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 4 Configuring the PSTN Gateway (FXO) How PSTN-To-VoIP Calls Work Gateways 1 to 4 can be specified in a dial plan with the special identifier gw1, gw2, gw3, or gw4. Also, gw0 represents the internal PSTN gateway via the FXO port. You can specify in the dial plan to use gwx (x = 0,1,2,3,4) when making certain calls. In general, you can specify any gateway address in the dial plan. In addition, three parameters are added that can be used with call routing: • usr—User-id used for authentication with the given gateway • pwd—Password used for authentication with the given gateway • nat—Enable or disable NAT mapping when calling the gateway Table 1-31 lists some examples. You can set up multiple PSTN gateways at different locations and configure Line 1 to use a different gateway when dialing specific numbers. Table 1-30 VoIP Outbound Call Routing Parameters Parameters Group Description Values Gateway 1 Line 1 Fully qualified domain name (or IP address) of a gateway. If the port number is not specified, 5060 is assumed. Default value is [blank] Domain name or IP address GW1 Nat Mapping Enable Line 1 Whether to enable NAT mapping when using Gateway 1.

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 4 Configuring the PSTN Gateway (FXO) Configuring VoIP Failover to PSTN Configuring VoIP Failover to PSTN When power is disconnected from the SPA3102, the FXS port is connected to the FXO port. In this case, the telephone attached to the FXS port is electrically connected to the PSTN service via the FXO port. When power is applied to the SPA3102, the FXS port is disconnected from the FXO port. However, if the PSTN line is in use when the power is applied to the SPA3102, the relay is not flipped until the PSTN line is released. This is done so that the SPA3102 does not interrupt any call in progress on the PSTN line. When Line 1 VoIP service is down (because of registration failure or loss of network link), SPA3102 can be configured to automatically route all outbound calls to the internal gateway using the parameters listed in Table 1-32. Sharing One VoIP Account Between the FXS and PSTN Lines The FXS (Line 1) and FXO (PSTN Line) can share a single VoIP account if they use different SIP ports. If the service provider allows multiple registration contacts and simultaneous ringing, both lines can register periodically with the service provider. In this case, both lines receive inbound calls to this VoIP account. The PSTN Line should be configured with a sufficiently long answer delay before the call is automatically answered to allow for the function of the PSTN gateway. If the service provider does not allow more than one register contact, the PSTN Line should not register. In this case, only Line 1 rings on the inbound call to this VoIP account because it is the only line registered with the service provider. Line 1 can have the call forwarded to the PSTN Line after a few seconds using the Call-Forward-On-No-Answer feature with gw0 as the forward destination. Similarly, Line 1 can apply Call-Forward-All, Call-Forward-On-Busy, and Call-Forward-Selective feature, and direct the caller to the PSTN-Gateway. Only PIN authentication is allowed when a VoIP caller is forwarded to the PSTN-gateway from Line 1. If HTTP Authentication is used, the caller is not authenticated. Another option when using the Forward-To-GW0 feature is to forward the caller to a specific PSTN number, using the syntax @gw0 in the forward destination. When using this with Call-Forward-Selective, you can develop some interesting applications. For example, you can forward all callers with 408 area code to 14081234567, or all callers with 800 area code to 18005558355 (This is the number for Tell Me). When this syntax is used, authentication is not used and the target PSTN number is automatically dialed by the SPA3102 after the caller is forwarded to gw0.

It includes the following topics: • PSTN Call to Ring Line 1, page 4-8 Table 1-32 Automatically Routing Outbound Calls to Internal Gateway Parameter Group Description Range Auto PSTN Fallback Line 1 If enabled, SPA3102 automatically routes outbound calls to Gateway 0 when registration fails or network link is down.

When the PSTN line rings, the PSTN Line makes a local VoIP call to Line 1. If Line 1 is busy, it stops. After a given number of rings, the VoIP gateway picks up the call. Symmetric RTP Symmetric RTP is used to send audio RTP to the source IP and port of the inbound RTP packets. This facilitates NAT traversal. Table 1-33 lists symmetric RTP parameters.

Ring-Thru is disabled. After it rings for a delay equals to the value in , the VoIP gateway answers the call and prompts the PSTN caller to enter a PIN number (assuming PIN authentication is enabled). After a valid PIN is entered, a regular dial plan is played to prompt the PSTN caller to dial the VoIP number. A dial plan is selected according to the PIN number entered by the caller. If authentication is disabled, the default PSTN dial plan is used. Note than the dial plan choice cannot be 0 for a PSTN caller. Note A in terms of Caller ID (ANI) patterns can be configured into the SPA3102 to automatically grant access to the PSTN caller without entering the PIN. In this case, the default PSTN dial plan is also used. The same scenario can be implemented using Ring-Thru. When the PSTN line rings, Line 1 rings also. This feature is called Ring-Thru. If Line 1 is picked up before the VoIP gateway auto-answers, it is connected to the PSTN call. Line 1 hears a call waiting tone if it is already connected to another call. VoIP to PSTN Call with and Without Authentication This section describes three scenarios with and without authentication and includes the following topics: • Using PIN Authentication, page 4-9 • Using HTTP Digest Authentication, page 4-10 • Without Authentication, page 4-10 Using PIN Authentication This scenario assumes that the PSTN Line has a different VoIP account than the Line 1 account. The VoIP caller calls the FXO number, which auto-answers after . The SPA3102 then prompts the VoIP caller for a PIN. When a valid PIN is entered, the SPA3102 plays the and prompts the caller to dial the PSTN number. The number dialed is processed by the dial plan corresponding to the VoIP caller. If the dial plan choice is 0, no dial plan is needed and the user hears the PSTN dial tone right after the PIN is entered. If the dial plan choice is not 0, the final number returned from the dial plan after the complete number is dialed by the caller is dialed to the PSTN. The caller does not hear the PSTN dial tone (except for a little leakage before the first digit of the final number is auto-dialed by the SPA3102).

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 4 Configuring the PSTN Gateway (FXO) Call Scenarios If the PSTN Line is busy (off-hook, ringing, or PSTN line not connected) when the VoIP caller calls, the SPA3102 replies with 503. If the PIN number is invalid or entered after the VoIP call leg is connected, the SPA3102 plays the reorder tone to the VoIP caller and eventually ends the call when the reorder tone times out. Note If is specified and the VoIP caller ID does not match any of the given patterns, the SPA3102 rejects the call with a 403. This rule applies regardless of the authentication method, even when the source IP address of the INVITE request is in the . Using HTTP Digest Authentication The same scenario can be implemented with HTTP digest authentication when the calling device supports the configuration of a auth-ID and password to access the SPA3102 PSTN gateway. When the VoIP caller calls the PSTN Line, the SPA3102 challenges the INVITE request with a 401 response. The calling device should then provide the correct credentials in a subsequent retry of the INVITE, computed with the auth-ID and password using MD5. If the credentials are correct, the target number specified in the user-id field of the INVITE Request-URI is processed by the dial plan corresponding to the VoIP user (assuming the dial plan choice is not 0). The final number is then auto-dialed by the SPA3102. If the credentials are incorrect, the SPA3102 challenges the INVITE again. If the auth-ID does not exist in the SPA3102 configuration, the SPA3102 replies 403 to the INVITE. If the target number is invalid according to the corresponding dial plan, the SPA3102 also replies 403 to the INVITE. Again, if the PSTN Line is busy at the time of the call, the SPA3102 replies 503. Note HTTP Digest Authentication is one way to perform one-stage dialing of a VoIP-To-PSTN call. The other way is with no authentication require. However, if the target number is not specified in the Request-URI or the number matches the account user-id of the PSTN Line, the call reverts to two-stage dialing. Without Authentication This scenario can also be implemented without authentication, using one-stage or two-stage dialing, as in the HTTP Authentication case. The default VoIP caller dial plan is used in this scenario. Authentication is performed when the method is none or when the source IP address of the inbound INVITE matches one of the patterns. Call Forwarding to PSTN Gateway This section describes a number of scenarios that forward calls to the PSTN gateway. It includes the following topics: • Forward-On-No-Answer to the PSTN Gateway, page 4-11 • Forward-All to the PSTN gateway, page 4-11 • Forward to a Particular PSTN Number, page 4-11 • Forward-On-Busy to PSTN Gateway or Number, page 4-11 • Forward-Selective to PSTN Gateway or Number, page 4-11

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 4 Configuring the PSTN Gateway (FXO) Call Scenarios Forward-On-No-Answer to the PSTN Gateway In this scenario, Line 1 is configured to to the PSTN Gateway. The scenario is implemented by setting User 1 to forward to gw0 on no answer, with set to six seconds. The caller calls Line 1 and if Line 1 is not picked up after six seconds, the PSTN Line picks up the call and the call reverts to a PSTN-Gateway call, as described above. In this case, HTTP authentication is not allowed because Line 1 does not authenticate inbound INVITE requests. If you need to authenticate the VoIP caller in this case, you must select the PIN authentication method, or else the caller is not authenticated. Note If the PSTN Line is busy at the moment of the forward, it does not answer the VoIP call. The call forward rule is ignored and Line 1 continues to ring. Forward-All to the PSTN gateway In this scenario, Line 1 is configured with to the PSTN gateway.This scenario is the same the previous case, except the FXO picks up the Line 1 call immediately. If the PSTN Line is busy at the moment of the call, the PSTN Line does not pick up the call, the call forward rule is ignored, and Line 1 continues to ring. Forward to a Particular PSTN Number In this scenario, the forward destination is set to @gw0>. This is the same as in the previous examples , except that the SPA3102 automatically dials the given target number on the PSTN line right after it answers the VoIP call leg. This is a special case of one-stage dialing where the target number is specified in the configuration. The caller is not authenticated in this case regardless of the authentication method. However, the caller is still limited by the parameter Forward-On-Busy to PSTN Gateway or Number This scenario is similar to the previous cases of call forwarding to gw0, but this applies when Line 1 is active. Forward-Selective to PSTN Gateway or Number This scenario is similar to the previous cases of call forwarding to gw0, but this applies when the caller matches the specific caller-id pattern. User Dialing 9 to Access PSTN-Gateway for Local Calls To implement this scenario, add the rule “<9,:1408>xxxxxxx<:@gw0>” to the Line 1 dial plan. When user dials 9, SPA3102 plays outside dial tone. The user then dials seven digits and the SPA3102 prepends 1408 before dialing the final number on the PSTN line.

Document Version 3.1 Chapter 4 Configuring the PSTN Gateway (FXO) Call Scenarios Using the PSTN-Gateway for 311 and 911 Calls To implement this scenario, add the rule “[39]11<:@gw0>” to Line 1. When the user dials 311 or 911, the call is routed to the PSTN gateway. Note If the PSTN Line is busy after the user dials 311 or 911, the call still fails. For true life-line supports, therefore, the PSTN Line cannot be shared. Auto-Fallback to the PSTN-Gateway To implement this scenario, enable . When registration fails or link is down, the SPA3102 automatically calls “fallback@gw0” when user picks up Line 1. The SPA3102 does not reboot when the link is down. However, the SPA3102 reboots when the link is back up and Line 1 and PSTN Line are not in use.

Document Version 3.2 Chapter 5 Linksys ATA Field Reference SIP Tab SDP Payload Types RTCP Tx Interval Interval for sending out RTCP sender reports on an active connection. It can range from 0 to 255 seconds. During an active connection, the Linksys IP phone can be programmed to send out compound RTCP packet on the connection. Each compound RTP packet except the last one contains a SR (Sender Report) and a SDES.(Source Description). The last RTCP packet contains an additional BYE packet. Each SR except the last one contains exactly 1 RR (Receiver Report); the last SR carries no RR. The SDES contains CNAME, NAME, and TOOL identifiers. The CNAME is set to @, NAME is set to (or Anonymous if user blocks caller ID), and TOOL is set to the Vendor/Hardware-platform-software-version (such as Linksys/Linksys IP phone-1.0.31(b)). The NTP timestamp used in the SR is a snapshot of the Linksys IP phone’s local time, not the time reported by an NTP server. If the Linksys IP phone receives a RR from the peer, it attempts to compute the round trip delay and show it as the value (ms) in the Info section of Linksys IP phone web page. The default is 0.
