Introducing the Prestige
This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the Prestige.
1.1 Prestige 2302R VoIP Station Gateway Series Overview
The Prestige 2302R VoIP (Voice over IP) station gateway lets you use traditional analog
telephones to make telephone calls over the Internet. The Prestige uses SIP (Session Initiation
Protocol), an internationally recognized standard for implementing VoIP.
You can call any landline or mobile telephone as well as IP telephones. You don’t need to
know if the recipient’s connection type is an IP, cellular or landline based service. Calls
received from IP telephones work exactly as you would expect from the traditional telephone
service.
The NAT and DHCP server features allow you to use an Ethernet hub or switch to set up a
private network and allow multiple computers to share a single Internet connection. The
Prestige also provides content filtering and a firewall for security.
The Prestige's web configurator allows easy management and configuration.
1.2 Prestige 2302RL VoIP Analog Telephone Adaptor with
Lifeline
