Chapter 7 - Using the MultiVOIP Software
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. MultiVOIP User Guide
When you enter this information and click OK, the information is loaded into the phone
directory database.
To add a second entry, click Add and the Add/Edit Phone Entry dialog box displays again.
After the host entries are added to the database, the same data has to be added for each
client MultiVOIP.
To establish the phone directory database for a client MultiVOIP, you do not have to enter
phone numbers, but you have to check the Client option in the Database Type group. When
you click the Client option, the Update Database From group becomes active. Enter the IP
address of the Host MultiVOIP. Once online, the client MultiVOIP will receive the phone
directory database from the Host.
Changing IP Parameters
The IP Setup dialog box establishes the IP addressing for the local Ethernet LAN, defines the
Internet gateway address, and for a client MultiVOIP the global-to-local IP address translation
is defined on the Proxy Setup tab. The IP Setup dialog box is accessed by clicking IP on the
MultiVOIP 100 Setup menu.
When the IP Setup dialog box displays, the IP address of your MultiVOIP displays with its IP
Mask. The Gateway Address is the IP address of the device connected to the Internet.
Proxy Server
The Proxy Setup tab is used when a Proxy Server is used to connect the LAN to the Internet.
If a Proxy Server is used in a MultiVOIP network, an address translation takes place within the
Proxy Server to direct the phone call to the correct MultiVOIP.
