SmartNode 4660 & 4670 User Manual
IP related information
Before you can set up the basic IP connectivity for your SmartNode you should have the following informa-
tion:
•
IP addresses used for Ethernet LAN and WAN ports
•
Subnet mask used for Ethernet LAN and WAN ports
•
IP addresses of central H.323 gatekeeper (if used)
•
IP addresses and/or URL of SIP servers or Internet telephony services (if used)
•
Login and password for PPPoE
•
Login and password for SIP or H.323 based telephony services
•
IP addresses of central TFTP server used for configuration upload and download (optional)
Software tools
You will need a PC (or equivalent) with Windows Telnet or a program such as Tera Term Pro Web to config-
ure the software on your SmartNode.
Power source
If you suspect that your AC power is not reliable, for example if room lights flicker often or there is machinery
with large motors nearby, have a qualified professional test the power. Patton recommends that you include an
uninterruptible power supply (UPS) in the installation to ensure that VoIP service is not impaired if the
power fails.
Location and mounting requirements
The SmartNode is intended to be placed on a desktop or similar sturdy, flat surface that offers easy access to
the cables. Allow sufficient space at the rear of the chassis for cable connections. Additionally, you should con-
sider the need to access the unit for future upgrades and maintenance.
