Overview MultiVOIP FXS User Guide About This Manual This manual is about Voice-over-IP products made by Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. It describes three analog MultiVOIPTM FX units that operate with the SIP transmission protocol only and use the FXS telephony interface only, namely, models MVPFXS-24, MVPFXS-16, and MVPFXS-8. At this writing, only the MVPFXS-24 model has been released; the MVPFXS-16 and MVPFXS-8 will be forthcoming.
MultiVOIP FXS User Guide Overview Introduction to Analog MultiVOIP FX SIP FXS-only Gateway Voice-over-IP Units (MVPFXS-8/16/24) VOIP: The Free Ride. We proudly present Multi-Tech's MVPFXS-8/16/24 MultiVOIPTM FXS SIP Gateways. These three models allow voice/fax communication to be transmitted at no additional expense over your existing IP network, which has ordinarily been data only.
Overview MultiVOIP FXS User Guide Phone System Transparency. These MultiVOIPs inter-operate with a telephone switch or PBX, acting as a switching device that directs voice and fax calls over an IP network. The MultiVOIPs have “phonebooks,” directories that determine to who calls may be made and the sequences that must be used to complete calls through the MultiVOIP. The phonebooks allow the phone user to interact with the VOIP system just as they would with an ordinary PBX or telco switch.
MultiVOIP FXS User Guide Overview The primary advantage of the web GUI (over a GUI that requires a local connection) is remote access for control and configuration. The controller PC and the MultiVOIP unit itself must both be connected to the same IP network and their IP addresses must be known. Logging of System Events. MultiTech has built SysLog Server functionality into the software of the MultiVOIP units. SysLog is a de facto standard for logging events in network communication systems.
Overview MultiVOIP FXS User Guide MultiVOIP Front Panel LEDs LED Types. The MultiVOIPs have two types of LEDs on their front panels: (1) general operation LED indicators (for power, booting, and ethernet functions), and (2) channel operation LED indicators that describe the data traffic and performance in each VOIP data channel. Active LEDs. On the MVPFXS units, there are four WAN LEDs and twenty-four channel-operation LEDs.
MultiVOIP FXS User Guide Overview Computer Requirements The command computer used in conjunction with the MultiVOIP must meet these requirements: (a) any reasonably modern PC, (b) must have an up-to-date version of Java installed (v. 1.5 or higher), (c) must have an up-to-date web browser installed (at this writing, up-to-date browsers would include Internet Explorer 6.0(+), Netscape 6.0(+), or Mozilla FireFox 1.0(+).
Overview MultiVOIP FXS User Guide Installation at a Glance The basic steps of installing your MultiVOIP network involve unpacking the units, connecting the cables, and configuring the units using the MultiVOIP web-based graphic user interface (GUI), and confirming connectivity with another voip site. This process results in a fully functional Voice-Over-IP network. Related Documentation The MultiVOIP User Guide (the document you are now reading) comes in electronic form and is included on your system CD.

MultiVOIP FXS Quick Start Guide Phonebook Starter Config. Phonebook Starter Configuration (with remote voip) If the topic of voip phone books is new to you, it may be helpful to read the PhoneBook Tips section (page 32) before starting this procedure. To do this part of the quick setup, you need to know of another voip that you can call to conduct a test. Ideally, a test of two voips at the same physical location connected back-to-back should be done first.
Phonebook Starter Config. MultiVOIP FXS Quick Start Guide 4. Suppose you want to call a phone number outside of your building using a phone station that is an extension from your PBX system (if present). What digits must you dial? Often a “9” or “8” must be dialed to “get an outside line” through the PBX (i.e., to connect to the PSTN). Generally, “1 “or “11” or “0” must be dialed as a prefix for calls outside of the calling code area (long-distance calls, national calls, or international calls).

North America, Long-Distance Example Euro, National Call Example Seattle-Chicago system. London/Birming. system. On Seattle PBX, “9” is used to get an outside line. On London PBX, “9” is used to get an outside line. Answer: 9 is prefix to be added by local (Seattle) voip. Answer: 9 is prefix to be added by local (London) voip.
Phonebook Tips MultiVOIP FXS Quick Start Guide Phonebook Tips Preparing the phonebook for your voip system is a complex task that, at first, seems quite daunting. These tips may make the task easier. 1. Use Dialing Patterns, Not Complete Phone Numbers. You will not generally enter complete phone numbers in the voip phonebook. Instead, you’ll enter “destination patterns” that involve area codes and other digits.
MultiVOIP FXS Quick Start Guide Phonebook Tips 3. Knowing When to Drop Digits. When calling area codes and access codes are used in combination, a leading “1” or “0” must sometimes be dropped. Example Area code for Inner London is listed as “0207.” However, in international calls the leading “0” is dropped. U.K. Country Code Phonebook Entry International Access Code 4. Using a Comma.

Phone Book Configuration MultiVOIP FXS User Guide To call the Minneapolis/St. Paul area, a Baltimore employee must dial eleven digits. If a Baltimore employee dials any phone number in the 612 area code, the call will automatically be handled by the company’s voip system. Upon receiving such a call, the Minneapolis voip will remove the digits “1612”.
MultiVOIP FXS User Guide Phone Book Configuration Similarly, the Inbound PhoneBook for the Baltimore VOIP (shown first below) generally matches the Outbound PhoneBook of the Minneapolis VOIP (shown second below). Each entry corresponds to a phone station of the Baltimore voip. This phonebook arrangement allows Minneapolis users to contact Baltimore co-workers as though they were in the Minneapolis facility, using numbers in the range 7001 to 7024.

MultiVOIP FXS User Guide Operation & Maintenance Upgrading MultiVOIP Firmware Introduction From time to time, a new version of the MVPFXS firmware may be issued. When a new firmware version is issued, you can overwrite the MultiVOIP with the new code either by using a TFTP server or by using an FTP client and contacting the FTP server that resides on the MVPFXS unit itself. It is also possible to update the firmware by a serial connection without FTP or TFTP, but that method of transfer is extremely slow.
Operation and Maintenance MultiVOIP FXS User Guide Obtaining Updated Firmware Generally, updated firmware must be downloaded from the MultiTech web/FTP site to the user’s PC before it can be downloaded from that PC to the MultiVOIP. Note that the structure of the MultiTech web/FTP site may change without notice. However, firmware updates can generally be found using standard web techniques. For example, you can access updated firmware by doing a search or by clicking on Support.
MultiVOIP FXS User Guide Operation & Maintenance Once the updated firmware has been located, it can be downloaded from the web/ftp site using normal PC/Windows procedures. While the next 3 screens below pertain to the MVP3010, similar screens will appear for any MultiVOIP model described in this manual.

MultiVOIP FXS User Guide Operation & Maintenance To transfer files using the FTP server functionality in the MultiVOIP, follow these directions. 1. Establish Network Connection and IP Addresses. Both the controller PC and the MultiVOIP unit(s) must be connected to the same IP network. An IP address must be assigned for each. IP Address of Control PC ____ . ____ . ____ . ____ IP Address of voip unit #1 ____ . ____ . ____ . ____ : : : : : . . . . IP address of voip unit #n ____ . ____ .
Operation and Maintenance MultiVOIP FXS User Guide 3. Install FTP Client Program or Use Substitute. You should install an FTP client program on the controller PC. FTP file transfers can be done using a web browser (e.g., Mozilla or Internet Explorer) in conjunction with a local Windows browser a (e.g., Windows Explorer), but this approach is somewhat clumsy (it requires use of two application programs rather than one) and it limits downloading to only one VOIP unit at a time.
