Making Calls on a NetVision Data Phone
Extension Dialing (Gateway Telephony)
When a NetVision Data Phone operates in the gateway telephony style, it
routes the call through the gateway using the gateway IP address stored in
the phone. The gateway completes the call to the extension.
To make a call to an extension:
1. Dial the extension number (do not dial * or #).
2. Press SND.
IP Dialing (Peer-to-Peer Telephony)
Peer-to-peer telephony, or IP dialing, connects calls over the Spectrum24
network and does not involve a gateway or PBX. Peer-to-peer telephony does
not support telephone system features such as transfer, conference calls, call
forwarding and call park.
The NetVision Phone Administrator assigns eEach NetVision Data Phone a
unique IP address. An IP address contains four octets separated by periods.
Each octet contains up to three decimal digits, ranging from 0 to 255.
For example, to call another NetVision Data Phone in the same network:
1. Press the * key. The phone changes its display to:
Enter IPAdr???????????
2. Dial the IP address of another NetVision Telephone. Use the * key for the
period. Use complete octets.
An IP address contains 4 parts called octets, separated by periods. For
example, if a phone with IP address 123.123.123.123 calls a phone
with IP address 123.123.123.124, dial *124.
3. Press SND.
The phone displays the full IP address of the called phone:
Calling
123
For phones on different subnets, dial all or part of the IP address. Use the *
key as decimal point to separate the octets. The IP traffic goes through the
default gateway (router) IP address specified in the NetVision Data Phone.
