Figure 3 - Separate VoIP and Data Networks
This network architecture is seen with controlled POS systems that supply a separate router enabling
all their equipment to reside within its own subnet. Remove the original VoIP connection (dotted line
below) and route the connection carrying all VoIP traffic through the two Vertex “VoIP Bridge Ports”.
If the POS application collects Caller ID via Ethernet, connect the Vertex “Management Port” and your
PC running the Vertex Configuration Tool (VCT) to the Data Subnet Router, as shown in the diagram
below. Conversely, if the POS obtains Caller ID data through a Serial Port, connect the Management
Port and your PC running VCT to the VoIP network.
If DHCP is enabled, the Data Gateway MAC is obtained automatically upon Vertex re-boot. If not, it
will need to be entered manually. If the Management Port is connected to the Subnet Router, use that
MAC as the Data Gateway
