The yellow/red/green Info/Fault LED will stop blinking alternately red/yellow and start blink- ing red/green/red/yellow. This shows that Quadro has accepted the emergency firmware and is loading it. After a few seconds, Quadro will boot, showing the boot LED sequence. Quadro6L/4L; (SW Version 5.2.x)
Ethernet hubs and switches on the LAN, allowing additional devices to be con- nected to the network. The Quadro is a device with two sides: one side connects to your LAN, and the other side connects to the Internet, or the WAN. Quadro’s firewall and Network Address Translation (NAT) functionality protects your LAN from being seen from the Internet side making the LAN private and secure.

WAN LEDs verify that the Ethernet connection is established between the end points. If these LEDs are not illuminated, there is a connection problem between the Quadro and the other device. Some modems, hubs, switches and routers will require the use of crossover cables.
• In the address field, enter http://Quadro_WAN_IP (the IP address assigned by the company’s DHCP sever) if the PC is connected to the Quadro WAN port; or http://172.30.0.1 (Quadro’s default LAN IP address) if the PC is con- nected to the Quadro’s LAN port.
Next button to start. Enter into the Host Name field the unique name (top right corner, un- der Epygi logo) for the Quadro device. The Domain Name text field requires the LAN side domain name which the Quadro belongs to.
LAN port. If you didn’t change the default LAN IP address of the Quadro, you also may leave the de- fault values for the IP Address Range. Make sure your connected LAN devices belong to the same network as the LAN port of your Quadro.
For more information on the Blind Transfer to Extension Service, please see Manual II: Administrator’s Guide. The PSTN Access Code is the prefix number you choose to dial to tell the Quadro to “make this call over PSTN” (see Step 4: Making/Receiving Calls).
Finishing the System Configuration Wizard Fig. l- 22: System Configuration Wizard finishing page Click on Finish to complete the System Configuration Wizard. The Quadro will then stop in- ternal functions and apply the changes made in the Wizard. Fig. l- 23: Wizard Execution Progress page After this is complete, the Quadro will reply with the Confirm Settings page requesting confirmation of the changes.

If you do not use DHCP for your LAN and you have changed your LAN set- tings, make sure that the IP address of the PC connected to Quadro is still within the speci- fied IP address range, otherwise your PC may not establish a connection to Quadro.
System menu. The Internet Configuration Wizard is a tool for the administrator to config- ure the WAN settings and to adjust Quadro's connectivity in the global network. It must be run if Quadro is desired to be connected to the Internet.
Quadro6L/4L Manual I: Installation Guide Step 2: Configuring the Quadro Uplink Configuration Select the desired WAN Interface Protocol and enter the WAN Interface Bandwidth to as- sure the quality of IP calls. Fig. l- 26: Uplink Configuration If the available bandwidth is used to the point where the quality of an additional IP call would suffer, then new IP calls are rejected.
Quadro6L/4L Manual I: Installation Guide Step 2: Configuring the Quadro WAN IP Configuration Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) should provide this information. • Assign automatically via DHCP - The parameters are set automatically by the ISP. This is common with cable modem and DSL service.
Quadro always remain online in the network. The IP Address Assignment field is used to specify the external IP address given to the Quadro. Usually it is a dynamic address but in some cases you may be given a static IP address.
Fig. l- 30: DNS Settings page The Quadro will suggest the correct settings. If Dynamically by Provider is selected, the DNS server settings will be set automatically whenever a connection to the Internet is es- tablished.
Finishing the Internet Configuration Wizard Fig. l- 31: Internet Configuration Wizard Summary page Click the Finish button to complete the Internet Configuration Wizard. The Quadro will then stop internal functions and apply the changes made in the Wizard. After this is complete, the Quadro will display the Confirm Settings page requesting confirmation of the changes.
Before starting the IP Lines configuration, the appropriate IP phone should be connected to the Quadro either through its WAN or LAN port. If the phones are placed on the Quadro WAN, which the default configuration assumes, please ensure that the Connect IP phones from WAN side checkbox is enabled on the Line Settings page (see Fig.
Page 33
Username and Password are required to be inserted for this selection. They should match on both Quadro and SIP phone for a successful connection. The Password field is checked against its strength and you may see how strong is your inserted password right below that field.

To make sure the IP line is configured properly, do the following: • Go to Quadro Status – SIP Registration status – Registered IP Lines to see if IP Line registration is successful. •...
Tested SIP Phones Below is the list of SIP phones that are tested and can be configured to work with Quadro6L/4L using the automatically configuration option. Some Quadro’s supported fea- tures like Paging, Intercom, etc. may be missing in these SIP phones.
Page 36
To use Plug and Play (PnP) option for supported IP phones, connect them to LAN/WAN for the Quadro and power up. If the phone is in default settings then it will automatically select a free IP line and attach to an extension. If not, reset the phone to factory defaults manu- ally.
Go to the Telephony menu of the Quadro’s Web Management for Key System Emulation service configuration. By default, the 6 FXO lines of the Quadro6L device are correspondingly attached to the first 6 SLA lines (SLA 7 and SLA 8 are inactive) and the 4 FXO lines of the Quadro4L are corre- spondingly attached o the first 4 SLA lines (SLA5, SLA6, SLA7 and SLA8 are inactive).
Step 2-B: Using Key System Emulation This means that each FXO line on the Quadro6L/4L is assigned to the SLA line and all in- coming calls on that FXO line will be ringing on the corresponding SLA line. Along with this, the programmable key on the IP phone responsible for that SLA line will be blinking during the incoming call.
Page 39
Quadro6L/4L Manual I: Installation Guide Step 2-B: Using Key System Emulation Fig. l- 35: Key System Emulation – SLA page The SLA Name text field is used to insert the preferred name for the corresponding SLA line. On the IP phones with the display available, this name is visible on the display next to the programmable key.
As indicated above, this causes some limitations in using the FXO lines on the Quadro. If you wish to move back to the regular FXO lines usage on the Quadro6L/4L, you can achieve it by disconnecting the FXO line from the SLA by inactivating the SLA or by chang- ing the SLA assignment to a SIP server.
Step 2-C: Using Receptionist If you wish to use the Receptionist’s features, the Receptionist should be set up on the Qu- adro. The Quadro’s basic configuration should be done in the same way as described in the Step 2. The Receptionist related setup, with detailed instructions on how to configure the Quadro and the attached IP Phones, is described in the “Receptionist Setup on Quadro”...

Attention: It is highly recommended to define a proper and non-empty password on this page if the extension is being used for the Call Relay service from the Quadro's Auto At- tendant. Write down the password somewhere and keep it in a secure place. If the password is lost, a factory reset will be required on the unit (see Administrator's Guide, Hardware Overview).
To resolve this issue, either STUN must be enabled on the Quadro or SIP NAT traversal must be set up in the router and in the Quadro to route the in- coming calls properly.
