QUICK START GUIDE |

2.5 Congratulations!
You’ve configured your Z/IP ONE and made your first IP-codec call. There are dozens of configuration options
within the Z/IP ONE, allowing it to work ideally in different broadcast and remote-audio roles. Consult the
manual, our online video tutorials, or Telos Support to get the most out of your Z/IP ONEs.
Info for IT experts:
You may choose to configure either the WAN or LAN port for streaming connections. We recommend
using the WAN port, saving the LAN (also Livewire) port for Livewire AoIP network connections.
Z/IP ONE connection success is virtually guaranteed by assigning it an unused static IP address on
your network, assigning a fixed “ZIP Server Listen Port” in the ZIP Server menu, and configuring a
port forward from the Internet side of your firewall/router to the static IP address of your Z/IP ONE,
using that same “Listen Port” number. We suggest you choose a listen port in the 20000-21000 range
to avoid port conflicts. Left unassigned, as in this Quick Start, the Z/IP ONE negotiates a listening port
with the ZIP Server. The ZIP Server is always located at zip.telos-systems.com, which is the factory
default setting. Incoming calls to the Z/IP ONE will connect instantly if a fixed listen port is chosen
and a port forward made. Otherwise, each inbound call negotiation will take five to ten seconds.
Placing the Z/IP ONE on a DMZ or un-NATted Public IP address is not recommended. A good choice
for a manually-configured DNS address is 8.8.8.8.
