Field Name Values Description Enable SNMP
Agent
Y/N Enables the SNMP code in the firmware of the MultiVOIP. This must be enabled for the MultiVOIP to communicate with and be controllable by the MultiVOIP Manager . Default: disabled
Trap Manager Parameters
Address n.n.n.n MultiVOIP Manager computer IP address.
Community Name -- A community is a group of VOIP endpoints that can communicate with each other.
Public is used to designate a grouping where all end users have access to entire VOIP network. Calling permissions can be configured to restrict access as needed.
Port Number 162 The default port number of the SNMP manager receiving the traps is the standard port 162.

Regional
The Regional Parameters are used to set the phone signaling tones and cadences. For the country selected, the standard set of frequency pairs will be listed for dial tone, busy tone, ‘unobtainable’ tone (fast busy or trunk busy), ring tone, and other, more specialized tones. If you need settings that are not available, the Custom selection will let you set the tones to what is necessary.
Regional parameters
Field Name Values Description Country/Region USA, Japan, UK,
Custom
Name of a country or region that uses a certain set of tone pairs for dial tone, ring tone, busy tone, unobtainable tone (fast busy tone), survivability tone (tone heard briefly, 2 seconds, after going off hook denoting survivable mode of VOIP unit), re-order tone (a tone pattern indicating the need for the user to hang up the phone), and intercept tone (a tone that warns an a party that has gone off hook but has not begun dialing, within a prescribed time, that an automatic emergency or attendant number will be called; the automatic call can be used to direct an attendant’s attention to a disabled or distressed caller, allowing an appropriate response to be made).
In some cases, the tone-pair scheme denoted by a country name may also be used outside of that country. The “Custom” option (button) assures that any tone-pairing scheme worldwide can be accommodated.
Note 1: Intercept tone is applicable only when the FXS telephony interface has been chosen in the Interface screen and when the AutoCall / OffHook Alert field is set to OffHook Alert in the Voice/Fax Parameters screen. The time allowed for dialing before the automatic calling process begins is set in the OffHook Alert Timer field of the Voice/Fax Parameters screen.
Note 2: “Survivability” tone indicates a special type of call-routing redundancy &
applies to MultiVantage VOIP units only
Advisory screen This message screen appears whenever the Country
field is changed. It informs the operator that, upon change of the Country field value, all User Defined Tones will be deleted.
Standard Tones fields Type column dial tone, ring tone,
Type of telephony tone-pair for which frequency, gain, and cadence are being presented.
Frequency 1 freq. in Hertz Lower frequency of pair.
Frequency 2 freq. in Hertz Higher frequency of pair.
Gain 1 gain in dB
+3dB to –31dB and “mute”
setting
Amplification factor of lower frequency of pair.
This applies to the dial, ring, busy and ‘unobtainable’ tones that the MultiVOIP outputs as audio to the FXS or FXS port. Default: -16dB
Gain 2 gain in dB
+3dB to –31dB and “mute”
setting
Amplification factor of higher frequency of pair.
This applies to the dial, ring, busy, and ‘unobtainable’ (fast busy) tones that the MultiVOIP outputs as audio to the FXS or FXO port. Default: -16dB
Cadence
On/off pattern of tone durations used to denote phone ringing, phone busy, connection unobtainable (fast busy), dial tone (“0” indicates continuous tone), survivability, and re-order. Default values differ for different countries/regions.
Although most cadences have only two parts (an “on” duration and an “off”
duration), some telephony cadences have four parts. Most cadences, then, are expressed as two iterations of a two-part sequence. Although this is redundant, it is necessary to allow for expression of 4-part cadences.
Custom (button) -- Click on Custom to bring up Custom Tone Pair Settings. This screen allows the user to specify tone pair attributes that are not found in any of the standard national/regional telephony toning schemes.
Field Name Values Description
country name MultiVOIP units operating with the X.06 software release (and above) include a built-in modem. The administrator can dial into this modem to configure the MultiVOIP unit remotely. The country name values in this field set telephony parameters that allow the modem to work in the listed country. This value may be different than the Country/Region value. For example, a user may need to choose
“Europe” as the Country/Region value but “Denmark” as the Country-Selection-for-Built-In-Modem value.
User Defined Tones fields Type column alphanumeric
name
Name of supervisory tone pair. Cannot be same as name of any standard tone pair.
Frequency 1 Freq. in Hertz Lower frequency of pair.
Frequency 2 Freq. in Hertz Higher frequency of pair.
Gain 1 +3dB to –31dB
and “mute” setting
Amplification factor of lower frequency of pair.
This applies to any supervisory tones that the MultiVOIP outputs as audio to the FXS or FXS port. Default: “Mute”
Gain 2 +3dB to –31dB
and “mute” setting
Amplification factor of higher frequency of pair.
This applies to any supervisory tones that the MultiVOIP outputs as audio to the FXS or FXO port. Default: “Mute”
On/off pattern of tone durations used to denote supervisory tones specified by user. Supervisory tones relate to answering and disconnection of calls. Although most cadences have only two parts (an “on” duration and an “off” duration), some telephony cadences have four parts. Most cadences, then, are expressed as two iterations of a two-part sequence. Although this is redundant, it is necessary to allow for expression of 4-part cadences.
