Connections to the user interface
To configure the MultiVoice Gateway, you can access the user interface either through the
unit’s its control port or through a Telnet session.
Connecting via the MultiVoice Gateway Control port
You can connect a VT100 terminal or a workstation with VT100-emulation software to the
control port of the MultiVoice Gateway. Use a serial cable. If using a workstation, set the
terminal-emulation software as follows:
9600 bps

1 stop bit
No flow control
Direct connect
After the connection is established, the Control Monitor screen appears.
Connecting through TELNET
You can establish a Console session from any Telnet workstation by opening a Telnet session
with the MultiVoice Gateway. In a Telnet session you can perform all of the configuration,
diagnostic, management, and other functions that could be performed through the MultiVoice
Gateway Control port.

•
IP address of the MultiVoice Gateway.
