MultiVOIP Quick Start Guide
Installing Your MVP120
This section covers the basic installation steps which include
unpacking the MultiVOIP, connecting the cables, and
configuring the MVP120.
Overview of the Installation and Configuration Process
The VOIP administrator must first install the MVP120 software
and then configure each MVP120 for its specific function.
During the configuration process, it's important to note that the
Phone Directory Database is configured differently depending
on whether or not you have Gatekeeper support on your VOIP
network.
If your VOIP network supports an H.323 Gatekeeper, you
must register all H.323 endpoints with the Gatekeeper. The
procedure for doing this is explained in the section
"Registering with a Gatekeeper Phone Directory."
If your VOIP network does not have Gatekeeper software or
the Gatekeeper software is not enabled, then you must build a
proprietary phonebook with a "Master" MultiVOIP and "Slave"
MultiVOIPs. The "Master" unit includes the assignment of a
unique LAN IP address, subnet mask, and Gateway IP
address. Once all connections have been made, the VOIP
administrator configures the unit and builds the Phone
Directory Database that will reside in the Master unit.
After the "Master" MultiVOIP is configured, the administrator
moves on to configure the MultiVOIPs designated as "Slave"
units. Again, unique LAN IP addresses, subnet masks, and
Gateway IP addresses are assigned. When this is done, the
Phone Directory Database option is set to Slave, and the IP
address of the Master MultiVOIP is entered. Once all Slave
units are configured, the process moves on to the "Deploying
the VOIP Network" section.
