Howto:Gotanet SIP Provider Compatibility Test

Innovaphone Compatibility Test Report

Summary

SIP Provider: Gotanet

The provider does not support all required innovaphone features and is therefore not a recommended SIP Provider.

Early media is not supported. Typical examples of early media generated by the callee are ringing tone and announcements (e.g., queuing status) or DTMF tones to drive interactive voice response (IVR) systems.

Also calls to the PSTN having a duration longer than 30 minutes are not possible.

That being said, Gotanet has achieved 82% of all possible test points. For more information on the test rating, please refer to Test Description

Testing Environment

Scenario NAT

This scenario describes a setup where the PBX and phones are in a private network. The IP800 must use a stun server, in order to send correct SIP - messages. The IP800 works as media relay, all RTP - streams go through the PBX.

Configuration

Firmware version

All innovaphone devices use V7 HF5 as firmware.

SIP - Trunk

First of all the SIP Trunk must be configured. Here an example of our SIP - Trunk.

Number Mapping

The complicated part on this issue is the correct mapping of the outgoing and incoming numbers. Gotanet expects the CGPN for outgoing calls to be in national number format.

Route Settings

Because Gotanet, as most SIP - providers too, doesn't support overlap sending, you must enable the block wise sending of the phone number. You can do this by enabling Force enblock in the automatically generated routes.

The second setting you must check is Interworking(QSIG,SIP). This feature must be enabled to properly relay supplementary services, like Hold over the SIP Trunk. If this checkbox is unchecked only basic call information like connect and disconnect will be forwarded by the gateway.

Fax

The FAX was connected via a IP22 to the IP800. When configuring the IP22 you must keep in mind that you will use the analog interface for fax communication. Thats why the T.38 codec must be enabled.

Now the PBX and the phones are setup correctly. You should be able to make call in both directions and send and receive fax messages.
