Connecting to the phone network or PABX FXO ports are only available for the Gigaset T640 PRO. An FXO port establishes the connection to the public phone network (PSTN) or an analogue PABX. An FXO port receives the line voltage and ringing current for the phones from the phone network or PABX (as with analogue phones).

At least one SIP gateway must be set up. If the Installation Wizard is used for start-up, a SIP gateway is already available for the trunk line configured.

Routing If you use an analogue or ISDN trunk line, configure the TDM gateways ( p. 47). For every configured TDM gateway (FXO or ISDN trunk), a SIP gateway is automatically set up with the default rules, and displayed on screen SIP gateways. It is normally not necessary to make further changes to the configuration.

Routing Transport name A transport must be set up for each external connection to an SIP provider which determines the bind address and the bind port. For the popular VoIP providers, you can use the pre-defined SIP transports default-udp or default-tcp. For a secure provider connection, set up another SIP transport ( p.
Page 54
Routing Check availabilityEnabled: The PABX checks whether a call is possible with SIP, i.e. whether there is Internet access and the SIP server is available. If yes, the connection is established over SIP, if not, the PABX tries to establish the connection via another gateway in the same gateway group (such as an ISDN connection).

Routing Trust remote party ID (provider-dependent) no - Deactivated (default) Do not trust the remote party ID for incoming calls Trust Remote-Party-ID Trust the remote party ID for incoming calls The PABX copies the number from the RPI header (instead of from the From header).
Routing Gateway groups In a gateway group, you combine multiple gateways and define common rules for incoming and outgoing calls. At least one gateway group must be set up so the system can be used for making calls. A gateway (SIP, FXO or ISDN) must be assigned to a gateway group. If the Installation Wizard is used for start-up, a gateway group is already set up with the default settings for the trunk line configured.

System Your PABX must be integrated into your local network for it to work properly. Changes to the network configuration can trigger a restart. Changing the network configuration may result in the link between your computer and the PABX going down. You will then not be able to access the user interface. In this case, you must restore access using the new IP address.
System DNS Server IP address of the DNS server (optional) The DNS (Domain Name System) allows you to assign IP addresses to symbolic names. The DNS server is required to convert the DNS name into the IP address when a connection is being established to a server. By default, the router/gateway's IP address is used here.
