First steps
Connecting to the LAN
You can connect the devices to your local network via a router, switch, or hub. A VoIP PBX is
required for Internet telephony. This must be accessible via the local network and must have net-
work access (to the Internet and/or the analogue or ISDN telephone network), because DECT
manager and base stations do not offer any NAT-traversal support. NAT-traversal support of a
PBX or providers might not provide unlimited support for a multicell system with SIP (DECT man-
ager) and media (base station) traffic transferred via different hosts. Otherwise it will only be pos-
sible to make calls within the LAN.
You also need a PC connected to the local network, so that you can configure your telephone
system via the web configurator.
For each device to be connected to the local network an Ethernet cable is required.
¤

device
¤
Insert the second Ethernet cable plug into a LAN socket for your local network or on the PoE
switch

Close the flap.

DECT manager and base stations must be connected to the same Ethernet or virtual
LAN sharing a common broadcast domain.
