Configuration
SIP configuration with Mediagateway Version 2.2.x
There are two ways how to connect the serinus Mediagateway to a innovaphone telephone system:
- The connection as an (SIP-) object will be easy and fast but does not have many configuration possibilitys. - connecting as an gateway trunk has much more possibilities like codec selection, routings,,...
In both ways calling the mediagateway through an range of numbers is possible (e.g. 99 000-999).
Which way to choose should be the decission of the technician that supports the telephone system.
Here the best way as an gateway trunk is described
SIP configuration
overview of the sip connector in the Mediagateway (example)
this example shows how the mediagateway can be connected
Here we used the following configuration examples:
Serinus Mediagateway: 192.168.8.25
Innovaphone PBX: 192.168.8.171
TelNbr Mediagateway: 71-xxxx
Gateway trunk connection
These image shows the gateway object Serinus_Mediagateway71 No 71
As soon as all configuration steps are made in the innovaphone pbx, the gateway object and the GW from the menue GK will connect to each other
Create a new gateway object
On the innovaphone configuration page go to: Gateway - GK - GW1
Enter the details as shown above. Use Protocol TCP, Remote Domain is this own PBX (!). For autorization use the credentials of the prior created Gateway object. Under "Alias List", enter the name and the number of the above created gateway object. Select the codec G722. Use no encryption.
If more than one pbx system or Mediagateways are connected, you can add a route to allow calls between them.
To create a new sip connector on the Serinus Mediagateway go to Menue - connectors - new SIP Connector
Add a connection name, the serveradress of the innovaphone pbx, the portnumber, the protocoll and the authentication details
After adding the connection details you can start a testcall to a telephonenumber through entereing the phone number and pressing the button "call".
The "send message" button can be used with some pbx systems to send a SIP-textmessage
The extended sip logging can be activated already at the beginning to have a better overview through the logfiles if connection problems may occure. It must be deactivated afterwards to prevent the system to becoming slow.
"Take incoming call before reject or go further" can optionally be activated if the function "silent alerting" will be used. This can prevent the telephone from playing a short dialtone when the silent alert key is pressed.
The pbx-prefixes:
SOAP connection
The SOAP connection is used for forced release or loudspeaker announcements
Create a new user in the innovaphone pbx
It should have the rights to control all affected system phones
Once done, go back to the mediagateway SIP connector and add the credentials
When all settings are correct, the test button will show up a positive confirmation.
If it always fails, please try a password with less than 16 signs.
Enter an not as telephone entry already configured number for intruded incoming calls. This number will be called by phones. The Prefix in the SIP connector will be dialed before that.
Settings for automatic call answer on system phones
Settings for forced release on nearly all phones (system phones, sip phones and also system dect phones)
