Overview _______________________________________________
Quintum’s VoIP gateways allow analog phones, fax machines and/or PSTN trunks to be used
with TeleVantage over the SIP VoIP protocol. TeleVantage supports the following Quintum
VoIP gateways:
Depending on the model, Quintum gateways provide the following ports:
Q FXS ports are used to connect analog phones, fax machines or other analog station
devices. Once TeleVantage and the Quintum gateway are properly configured, analog
devices connected to Quintum FXS ports behave just like TeleVantage SIP external
stations.
Q FXO ports are used to connect analog trunks. Once TeleVantage and the Quintum
gateway are properly configured, analog trunks connected to the Quintum FXO ports
appear as TeleVantage SIP servers through which users can place and receive PSTN
calls.
1
Q T1, E1, or BRI ports are used to connect digital PSTN trunks and devices. Like FXO
ports, once TeleVantage and the Quintum gateway are properly configured, T1, E1 and
BRI ports appear as TeleVantage SIP servers.
All Quintum gateways have a least one type of port. FXS and FXO ports are optional, depending
on the specific AS/AF/AX gateway model. For example, a Tenor AS/AF/AX gateway may have
only FXS ports, only FXO ports, or both FXS and FXO ports. For information about the specific
resources provided by each Quintum gateway, see:
http://www.quintum.com/enterprise/en_products.html.
Requirements
Important: The following are required to use Quintum gateways with TeleVantage.
Q Install the Quintum gateway and connect it to your network and power according to the
instructions in the Product Guide included with the gateway.
Q On the Quintum gateway, connect analog phones to FXS ports, analog trunks to FXO
ports, and T1/E1, and BRI lines to their respective ports.
Q Identify a Windows PC on the same network as the gateway where you can perform the
configuration steps described in this guide.
Q Set your firewall to accept local traffic by making the local subnet a trusted zone to
ensure that Quintum gateways on the network will be detected by the Tenor
Configuration Manager. If your Quintum gateway is across a NAT or firewall from the
TeleVantage Server, see “Supporting SIP calls over NATs/firewalls” in Chapter 14 of
Administering TeleVantage.
Q Ensure that the following software requirements are met:
Q For Call using, select the SIP Address dialing service from the drop-down list.
Q For the phone’s SIP address, select Registered to SIP span, and then select the IP
address or fully-qualified domain name of the SIP span from the drop-down list. For
Userinfo, enter the user’s TeleVantage extension.
Note: Make a note of the value you enter for Userinfo, as well as the user’s
Password—available on the User tab—because you will need this information
when you configure the Quintum gateway (in step 19 on page 1-20.)
3
3. Create a TeleVantage SIP server for each Quintum gateway. For details, see “Using
SIP servers” in Chapter 14 in Administering TeleVantage.
Note the following in the SIP Server dialog box:
Q On the SIP Server tab, you can specify the SIP server location in two ways:
4. Add and configure a SIP-to-Phone Number dialing service, so users can place calls
over the SIP server representing the Quintum gateway's trunks. See “Adding a dialing
service” in Chapter 9 in Administering TeleVantage.
Q On the General tab of the SIP-to-Phone Number Dialing Service dialog box, for SIP
PSTN Gateway, select the name of the SIP server you created for the Quintum
gateway from the drop-down list.
Configuration tasks
Perform the following tasks to configure your Quintum gateways:
Q Install the Tenor Configuration Manager and Wizard. See page 1-6.
Q Configure your Quintum gateways for the first time using the Tenor Configuration
Wizard. See page 1-7.
Q Test your Quintum gateways. See page 1-30.
The procedures in this guide all use the Wizard to configure Quintum gateways for the first time
using the settings required for TeleVantage.
Normally, you can only use the Wizard to configure a Quintum gateway for the first time. To
make any subsequent changes to the gateway’s settings, you must use the Tenor Configuration
Manager. See “Using the Tenor Configuration Manager” on page 1-30.
