Offline Configurator
With the aid of the offline configurator a configuration for the system can be issued
and created on a Windows PC. Thereby most of the configuration points are available.
Each system type of the product family and firmware version release 7.0 or higher, has
its own offline configurator; this is managed with the aid of a starter programme. The
starter programme is included on the product CD. The operating systems
Windows 2000 and XP are supported.
You can find further information in the chapter PC Offline Configuration starting on
page 216.
Remote Configuration
The OpenCom 100 configuration can be edited or updated by the customer service
centre or authorised dealer via a remote access connection or via an Internet con-
nection (reverse ssh tunnel).
Connection via ISDN
The connection for remote configuration is established using an internal RAS access.
The RAS access is activated when a data call from one of the registered phone
numbers is registered. During remote configuration, the OpenCom 100 is blocked for
RAS access by any further users.
If no RAS access has been configured in the OpenCom 100 Configurator, you can use a
code procedure to release the internal RAS access for remote configuration, and then
block it again. The manual activation is automatically cancelled 30 minutes after the
last configuration activity. You can add additional phone numbers for remote configu-
ration on the configurator’s
Telephony : Extended : Remote service menu page.
Activate the ISDN option for the desired phone numbers.
Connection via Internet
The connection for remote configuration is established indirectly over the Internet.
The connection session starts with a voice call from one of the registered phone
numbers. During the call, connection parameters (IP address, keys) will be sent using a
DTMF sequence. Afterwards, the OpenCom 100 communications system establishes a
secured SSH connection to an Internet server. The existing SSH connection allows to
reverse-connect to the OpenCom 100 communications system’s configurator. For this
type of connection, the OpenCom 100 communications system utilizes your Internet
account. Establishing an SSH connection via this Internet account must be allowed for
this purpose.
