Chapter 3 Configuring the Cisco ATA for H.323 Specifying a Preconfigured VLAN ID or Disabling VLAN IP Encapsulation 4. Note Note The Cisco ATA contacts the TFTP server and downloads the Cisco ATA release software that contains the correct signaling image for the Cisco ATA to function properly. If you are not using a TFTP server, you need to manually upgrade the Cisco ATA to the correct signaling image.
Chapter 3 Configuring the Cisco ATA for H.
Chapter 3 Configuring the Cisco ATA for H.323 Steps Needed to Configure the Cisco ATA Note If you are using the voice configuration menu to set the parameters, you must convert hexadecimal values to decimal values. For example, the OpFlags setting of 0x00000052 is equivalent to 82 in decimal format, and the VLANSetting of 0x01cc002b is equivalent to 30146603 in decimal format.
Chapter 3 Configuring the Cisco ATA for H.323 Steps Needed to Configure the Cisco ATA Table 3-3 Basic Steps to Configure the Cisco ATA in a TFTP Environment (continued) Action Reference 6. Configure the method with which the Cisco ATA will locate the TFTP server at boot up time. 7. Power up the Cisco ATA. 8. If you make configuration changes to the Cisco ATA or upgrade the signaling image on the TFTP server, you can refresh the Cisco ATA so that these changes take effect immediately.
Chapter 3 Configuring the Cisco ATA for H.323 Configuring the Cisco ATA Using a TFTP Server Configuring the Cisco ATA Using a TFTP Server The TFTP method of configuration is useful when you have many Cisco ATA because you can use a TFTP server for remote, batch configuration of Cisco ATAs. A TFTP server can host one unique configuration file for each Cisco ATA.
Chapter 3 Configuring the Cisco ATA for H.323 Configuring the Cisco ATA Using a TFTP Server Note Be sure to configure the UseSIP parameter to the value of 0 (its default) to enable the H.323 protocol. Creating Unique and Common Cisco ATA Configuration Files If you have many Cisco ATAs to configure, a good approach is to create two configuration files: • One file that will contain only parameter values unique to a specific Cisco ATA.
Chapter 3 Configuring the Cisco ATA for H.323 Configuring the Cisco ATA Using a TFTP Server Step 4 Use the example_uprofile.txt file again, this time as a template for creating a text file of values that are specific to one Cisco ATA. For example, you might configure the following parameters: UserID:8530709 GkorProxy:192.168.1.1 Save this file of Cisco ATA-specific parameters as: ata.
Chapter 3 Configuring the Cisco ATA for H.323 Configuring the Cisco ATA Using a TFTP Server Example cfgfmt -tptag.dat ata0a141e28323c.txt ata0a141e28323c This example is based on a Cisco ATA MAC address of 10.20.30.40.50.60, which converts to the two-digit, lower-case hexadecimal representation of each integer as 0a141e28323c. When you convert the ata.
Chapter 3 Configuring the Cisco ATA for H.323 Configuring the Cisco ATA Using a TFTP Server Using the EncryptKey Parameter and cfgfmt Tool The EncryptKey parameter encrypts binary files being transferred over TFTP. You can change this key for each Cisco ATA, so that only one specific Cisco ATA can decode the information. By default, the Cisco ATA-specific ata configuration file is not encrypted.
Chapter 3 Configuring the Cisco ATA for H.323 Configuring the Cisco ATA Using a TFTP Server • cfgfmt -E -eSecret -tpTagFile input-text-file output-binary-file The -E (uppercase) option means that any value specified for the Cisco ATA EncryptKey parameter in input-text-file is ignored and the output-binary-file is encrypted with the Secret key. However, the EncryptKey parameter and its value, if specified in input-text-file, will be included in output-binary-file. atadefault.
Chapter 3 Configuring the Cisco ATA for H.323 Configuring the Cisco ATA Using a TFTP Server Using a DHCP Server When using a DHCP server, configuration settings vary depending on whether or not the DHCP server is under the control of the Cisco ATA system administrator or the service provider. The simplest configuration is when the DHCP server is under the control of the Cisco ATA administrator, in which case the DHCP server provides the IP address of the TFTP server.
Chapter 3 Configuring the Cisco ATA for H.323 Configuring the Cisco ATA Using a TFTP Server Procedure Step 1 Using the voice configuration menu, set the parameter TftpURL to the IP address or URL of the TFTP server. For more information on setting the TftpURL parameter, see the “TftpURL” section on page 5-5. For information about using the Cisco ATA voice configuration menu, see the “Voice Configuration Menu” section on page 3-15.
Chapter 3 Configuring the Cisco ATA for H.323 Voice Configuration Menu Note Step 4 If you are not using a DHCP server to provide the TFTP server location, you must manually enter the TftpUrl using either the voice configuration menu or the Web configuration page. If you have done already done so, statically configure the following parameters using the voice configuration menu (see the “Voice Configuration Menu” section on page 3-15).
Chapter 3 Configuring the Cisco ATA for H.323 Voice Configuration Menu Using the Voice Configuration Menu To manually configure the Cisco ATA by using the voice configuration menu and the telephone keypad, perform the following steps: Procedure Step 1 Connect an analog touch-tone phone to the port labeled Phone 1 on the back of the Cisco ATA. Step 2 Lift the handset and press the function button located on the top of the Cisco ATA. You should receive the initial voice configuration menu voice prompt.

C H A P T E R 7 Configuring and Debugging Fax Services The Cisco ATA provides two modes of fax services that are capable of internetworking with Cisco IOS gateways over IP networks. These modes are called fax pass-through mode and fax mode. With fax pass-through mode, the Cisco ATA encodes fax traffic within the G.711 voice codec and passes it through the Voice Over IP (VoIP) network as though the fax were a voice call. This mode uses the Cisco proprietary fax upspeed method.
Chapter 7 Configuring and Debugging Fax Services Using Fax Pass-through Mode Note The Cisco ATA can also accept standard-based protocol-level codec switch requests, but cannot send such requests. Therefore, to interoperate with a Cisco gateway, use the Cisco-proprietary codec switch.
Chapter 7 Configuring and Debugging Fax Services Using Fax Pass-through Mode ConnectMode Description The ConnectMode parameter is a 32-bit value. The parameter settings apply to both lines of the Cisco ATA. Configure ConnectMode after configuring AudioMode for fax pass-through mode. Cisco recommends you use the following ConnectMode setting to interoperate with a Cisco IOS gateway.
Chapter 7 Configuring and Debugging Fax Services Using Fax Pass-through Mode Note For detailed information on setting up your IOS gateways and on feature availability, refer to the document Cisco Fax Services over IP. Enable Fax Pass-through Mode The supporting Cisco gateway can enable fax pass-through mode using system-level or dial-peer-level commands.
Chapter 7 Configuring and Debugging Fax Services Using Fax Pass-through Mode Dial-Peer Level Commands You can enable fax pass-through mode for communication between a Cisco IOS gateway and the specified Cisco ATA using the following dial-peer level commands: Procedure Step 1 Perform the command: dial-peer voice tag voip Step 2 Perform the command: modem passthrough {NSE [payload-type number] codec {g711µlaw | g711alaw} [redundancy] | system} a.
Chapter 7 Configuring and Debugging Fax Services Using FAX Mode Using FAX Mode Use fax mode when the gateways in the network do not support fax pass-through mode or dial-peer configuration. You can set one or both lines of the Cisco ATA to G.711-only fax mode. This mode allows the fax machine connected to the Cisco ATA to communicate directly with the far endpoint with no fax signaling event occurring between the two gateways.
