User's Manual 1. Overview 1 Overview 1.1 Introduction This document provides you with information on installing, configuring, and operating the MediaPack MP-40x BRI VoIP media gateway series. The various models of the MediaPack 40x Series are listed in the table below.
MediaPack BRI Series 1.2 Gateway Description The MP-40x (MediaPack) is an Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN), Basic-Rate Interface (BRI) VoIP media gateway. The MediaPack is best suited for small to medium size enterprises, branch offices, or residential media gateway solutions implementing ISDN.
User's Manual 1. Overview The figure below illustrates a typical MediaPack VoIP application. Figure 1-1: Typical MediaPack BRI VoIP Application 1.3 SIP Overview SIP (Session Initialization Protocol) is an application-layer control (signaling) protocol used on the MediaPack for creating, modifying, and terminating sessions with one or more participants. These sessions can include Internet telephone calls, media announcements and conferences.
MediaPack BRI Series 1.4 MediaPack Features This section provides a high-level overview of some of the many MediaPack supported features. 1.4.1 1.4.
User's Manual 1. Overview Working with Redirect server and handling 3xx responses. Early media (supporting 183 Session Progress). PRACK reliable provisional responses (RFC 3262). Call Hold and Transfer Supplementary services using REFER. Supports RFC 3581, Symmetric Response Routing. Supports network asserted identity (RFC 3325 and RFC 3323). RFC 2833 relay for Dual Tone Multi Frequency (DTMF) digits, including payload type negotiation.
MediaPack BRI Series 1.4.3 Telephony Capabilities 1.4.3.1 Supplementary Services The MediaPack SIP gateway supports the following supplementary services: Hold / Retrieve; refer to 'Call Hold and Retrieve' below. Transfer (Refer and Replaces); refer to 'Call Transfer' on page 20. Call Forward (3xx Redirect Responses); refer to 'Call Forward' on page 21. Call Waiting (182 Queued Response); refer to 'Call Waiting' on page 21. The above services are permanently active and cannot be disabled.
User's Manual 1. Overview 1.4.3.1.3 Call Forward The gateway supports call forward using 3xx responses. If the gateway receives a 3xx response to an invite, the call is forwarded to the new destination. 1.4.3.1.4 Call Waiting The gateway supports Call Waiting using the SIP Queued message. If a Queued message is received, the gateway plays the Queued tone to the ISDN phone. 1.4.3.2 Fax and Modem Settings Fax and modem settings are described in 'Configuring Fax and Modem' on page 164. 1.4.
MediaPack BRI Series 1.4.4.2 Network Address Translation (NAT) Support The below illustrates the supported NAT architecture. Figure 1-2: NAT Functioning The gateway uses NAT on the WAN interface. To allow successful calls to the WAN, the SIP must use the WAN IP address for signaling. To do this, set the SIP Local interface to the WAN interface (refer to 'SIP Proxy & Registration ' on page 82).

User's Manual 4. Initial Configuration d. Verify the new LAN IP settings by using the following command: (IF-IP)[LAN]# show ip interface LAN 5. Configure the WAN interface IP address, by performing the following: a. From the main configuration mode, enter the “ip_interface” mode using the following command: 192.168.2.1# ip_interface WAN b. Configure the WAN interface mode (Static, DHCP, or PPPoE): ♦ Static IP (similar to the LAN static IP configuration): a.
MediaPack BRI Series e. Exit the WAN mode using the following command: 192.168.2.1(if-ip)[WAN]# exit f. ♦ Continue to Step 6 to configure the default gateway IP address DHCP: a. Ensure that you have a DHCP server in your WAN network. b. Enable the new configuration by typing the following command: 192.168.2.1(IF-IP)[WAN]# shutdown 192.168.2.1(IF-IP)[WAN]# no shutdown c. Verify the new WAN IP settings by typing the following command: 192.168.2.
User's Manual 4. Initial Configuration d. Enable the new configuration by typing the following command: 192.168.2.1(IF-IP)[WAN]# shutdown 192.168.2.1(IF-IP)[WAN]# no shutdown e. Verify the new WAN IP settings by typing the following command: 192.168.2.1(if-ip)[WAN]# show ip interface WAN f. Exit the WAN mode using the following command: 192.168.2.1(if-ip)[WAN]# exit g. 6. Continue to Step 6 to configure the default gateway IP address.
MediaPack BRI Series 4.1.3 Connecting the MediaPack to the Network After you have configured the MediaPack's IP address so that it's in the same subnet as your network, you can connect the MediaPack to your network and then start working with your device (e.g., perform advanced configuration). ¾ To connect the MediaPack to the network: 1.

User's Manual 4.1.5 4. Initial Configuration Configuring the ISDN Interfaces The procedure below describes how to configure the ISDN interfaces. ¾ To configure the MediaPack ISDN interfaces, take the following 5 steps: 1. Login to the MediaPack's embedded Web server (refer to Section 'Assigning an IP Address Using HTTP' on page 42); the 'Quick Setup' screen appears. 2.
MediaPack BRI Series 4. If the ISDN ports that bind to the ISDN interface are configured as USER side, then the following parameters should be configured: • MSN Suffix: determines the USER side MSN. If no MSN’s are configured, the MediaPack accepts all incoming calls. • Hunt logic: configured if more then one ISDN port is bound to the interface. (In our example setup for Unit A, for ISDN Interface 1 the MSN suffix is configured to 3000; for ISDN Interface 0, no additional configuration is required.
User's Manual 4. Initial Configuration ¾ To configure the SIP parameters: 1. Access the 'SIP General Settings' screen (Protocol Management menu > SIP Gateway submenu > SIP General Settings option).

MediaPack Applications Configuring Modem Transfer over IP The general system configuration for call routing is the same as that described in Section 'Configuring Fax Transfer over IP' on page 164. For using the Modem Bypass, in the 'IP Profiles' and 'ISDN Profiles' screens, the parameter ‘Allow Modem Bypass’ must be enabled, as shown in the figure below: Figure A-9: Modem Transfer over IP Version 2.
MediaPack BRI Series A.4 Configuring Supplementary Services The MediaPack SIP gateway supports the following supplementary services: Call Hold / Retrieve; refer to Section 'Call Hold and Retrieve' on page 168. Transfer (Refer and Replaces); refer to Section 'Call Transfer' on page 169. Call Forward (3xx Redirect Responses); refer to Section 'Call Forward' on page 170. Call Waiting (182 Queued Response); refer to Section 'Call Waiting / Call Queued' on page 171.
User's Manual A. MediaPack Applications A.4.1.2 Call Hold from the SIP Side Call hold from the SIP side is similar to call hold on the ISDN side. The SIP user can use a SIP RE-INVITE to put the call on hold. The following SDP attributes indicate a hold: a=sendonly, a=inactive or IP = 0.0.0.0, or any combination of these parameters. If the SIP peer puts a call on hold, the data-path is disabled. No signaling action occurs towards the ISDN phone and no tone is beingplayed. A.4.
MediaPack BRI Series Figure A-11: Call Transfer Initiated by the SIP Peer A.4.2.2 Call Transfer Initiated by the ISDN User Call Transfer initiated by the ISDN user is not supported. A.4.3 Call Forward The MediaPack supports call forward using 3xx responses. If the MediaPack receives a 3xx response to an invite, the call is forwarded to the new destination. Figure A-12: Call Forward Call forward using 30x responses requires no configuration. The ISDN equivalent to call forward would be call deflection.
User's Manual A.4.4 A. MediaPack Applications Call Waiting / Call Queued A.4.4.1 ISDN-to-SIP Call Queued by the SIP User In this scenario, the MediaPack receives a 182 Call Queued instead of an alerting message. If the MediaPack receives a call queued, the MediaPack plays the Queued tone to the ISDN user instead of the alerting tone. For this scenario no configuration is required.
MediaPack BRI Series A.4.5 Overlap Receiving Overlap receiving means that the call initiator does not have to send the complete number in the initial setup. The user can send an empty ISDN setup message and then dial digit by digit. Overlap receiving is supported if the MediaPack is configured as Network side (pointto-point and point-to-multipoint), or if the MediaPack is configured as point-to-point user side.
User's Manual B B. MediaPack Startup Process MediaPack Startup Process The startup process (illustrated in the figure below) begins when the gateway is reset (physically or from the Web / CLI), and ends when the operational software is running. In the startup process, the network parameters, and software and configuration files are obtained. After the gateway powers up or after it is physically reset, the gateway runs all components. Without configuration, the components are inactive.
