MultiVOIP 400/800 User Guide
Building a Proprietary Phonebook Directory
27. To build your proprietary MultiVOIP 400/800 Phone Directory (i.e., in an H.323 environment
without the Gatekeeper option enabled), you will first need to enable (check) the Proprietary
Phonebook option and then configure the “Master” MultiVOIP 400/800 and then add the “Slave”
MultiVOIP 400/800s (or other H.323 endpoints). Configuring the “Slave” MultiVOIP 400/800 is
discussed later.
The first MultiVOIP 400/800 to be configured is designated the “Master” and contains the
proprietary phonebook database. All subsequent MultiVOIP 400/800s added to the proprietary
phonebook database are designated “Slaves.” The master database contains the phone numbers
of all H.323 endpoints available for communication on an IP network. This database is down-
loaded to each Slave MultiVOIP 400/800 as it comes on-line.
28. To configure the “Master” MultiVOIP 400/800, make certain that the Proprietary Phonebook and
Master options are enabled. The Master IP Address, Send Status Report to Master, and RAS
Parameters group will be disabled (grayed out).
Note: The Slave Status button displays the Slave VOIP Status dialog box used for viewing
phone number, IP address, status, and description of slave units (See “Configuring Your Slave
MultiVOIP 400/800s” for details).
Click Add (+) to begin building your phone directory database. The Add/Edit Phone Entry dialog
box is displayed.
29. Enter the unique phone number of the local device in the Phone Number field (e.g., 101) and
indicate that the local device is connected to Channel 1 in the Voice Channel field.
