Local Network Connectivity 2.1.2 The Local Area Network (LAN) is the communication platform used by the OM20/50 IP Telephony System for allowing communications among the telephone users and between the telephone users and the external VoIP and PSTN services. This LAN is composed of the data wiring (UTP cabling), networking equipment (switches and routers/access device) and the telecommunication (PSTN) lines.
Factors which will effect voice quality 2.2.2 Quality and reliability were the two darkest spots on VoIP's reputation for the past years. Here are the main things that affect voice quality in VoIP and what can be done to maximize quality. Bandwidth Your Internet connection always tops the list of factors affecting voice quality in VoIP conversations.
times, properly grounding the device, modifying some parameter values on device and changing the cables solves the problem completely. Location of your hardware Interference is another factor for voice quality during voice communication. Often, VoIP equipment interfere with each other thus producing noise and other problems. For example, if OM20/50 and ATA are too close to your broadband router or any appliances, you might experience voice quality problems.

Localizing the System This chapter describes the configuration of parameters which you need to modify according to your regional preference, including time zone, country and area code, Caller ID detection mode, call progress tones and digit map. It is important to set up these parameters correctly before you start using the device. 6.1 Setting the System Time The time and time stamps are used in features and logs.
6.3 Making Changes to the Digit Map The Digit map defines the dial plan of your device. Carefully setting up the rules in the digit map helps the device to recognize the ending of dialed numbers and thus speeds up the call process. The default digit map only contains system function rules.
An example of digit map associating with a dial plan is provided and explained below. Item Description [2-8]xxxxxxx The device terminates receiving digits after receiving eight digits starting with any digits between 2 and 8. 02xxxxxxxxx The device terminates receiving digits after receiving 11 digits starting with 013xxxxxxxxx The device terminates receiving digits after receiving 12 digits starting with 013.
6.5 Selecting the Call progress tone plan The device generates the call progress tones according to the tone setting. There are tone plans of 27 countries or regions predefined in the device, and you can select one of them. Or, you can define the tone plan according to the national standard.
Malicious users are extremely dangerous because in most cases they are trying to steal your account information or even remotely gain access to your device and control it. Most routers have some sort of firewall, but that’s not enough to protect you from other malicious users, thus it is recommended to use the following security procedures in order to protect your device while using a public network.
Example: MAC address is 000EA92D01B2 which can be assigned as your new administrator and operator password. Multi-Sites Deployment When the OM is located in the intranet (the private network), if you register with the system from an external IP extension or if multi-site networking is used, it is necessary to configure remote-address information and configure port mapping on the Internet ingress router or used the P2P traversal feature on OM.

10.1.1 Collecting Information Fault information can be collected from: Feedback from the customer Alarms generated by the network management system Routine maintenance or inspection Collecting raw information is of great importance during the initial troubleshooting stage. Raw information helps maintenance personnel narrow down the possible causes, ensuring a fast and accurate fault location.
Check whether registration account name, user name and registrar password are correct. Check whether there are special restrictions on SIP signaling. For example, check whether or not there is a field of specific User-Agent in the registration message, thus allowing only those terminal that are allowed to register.
