DECT and DECTover IP
®
Configuration
One of the DECTover IP base stations that is installed assumes coordination
and configuration of the DECTover IP functions (“DECTover IP Manager”,
OMM). Select a base station that has a dependable data link to the
Forum 523/524.
Note:
You can determine a second base station as additional
DECTover IP Manager (“Standby Device”). If the first
DECTover IP Manager fails, the second base station takes over
this critical function after some minutes and a reset of the DECT
network.
Go to the
Telephony: Devices: DECT over IP
page in the
Configurator
. Click
on
New
, to add a DECTover IP base station. Enter the
MAC address
of the
base station that you have selected to be the DECTover IP Manager. The MAC
address of the base station is located on its type label. Enter an
IP address
for
this base station. Confirm with
Apply
. Now click
Change
, to determine the
DECTover IP Manager. In standard cases, leave the
Mode
in the “IP address
from the system DHCP server” setting. Select the desired DECTover IP base
station with the
MAC address (IP address)
setting. Confirm with
Apply
.
If the Forum 523/524’s DHCP server is not configured for static address
assignment, you first need to configure the IP address of the DECTover IP
Manager with the help of an additional programme (see
starting on page 131). Also change the
Mode
setting on the
Telephony: Devices: DECT over IP
page to “IP address configured local” and
enter there the configured IP address for the DECTover IP Manager. All other
base stations can be operated using either a fixed IP address or an IP address
assigned dynamically via DHCP. Please refer to the information given in the
chapter entitled
Create a separate entry for each DECTover IP base station and for the
DECTover IP Manager on the
Telephony: Devices: DECT over IP
page. You
use these entries to determine the VoIP data compression (“Profile”).
