MultiVOIP 400/800 User Guide

Introduction

This chapter provides procedures for viewing or changing the configuration of a remote unit. Two

methods are provided to access a remote unit; the first method is modem based and the second

method uses IP. Within the IP method, three applications can be used: 1) LAN-Based using TFTP

(Trivial File Transfer Protocol), 2) Telnet as a client application, or 3) a standard web browser on the

Internet.

Remote Configuration

Remote configuration requires the MultiVOIP 400/800 software to be loaded on the local PC. The

local PC then controls the remote MultiVOIP 400/800 either via the modem connection or the LAN.

Modem-Based

To remotely configure a MultiVOIP 400/800, a local PC needs to be connected to a dial-up line and

the MultiVOIP software configured to call the remote MultiVOIP. The remote MultiVOIP needs to have

a modem connected to a dial-up line and the Command Port. Once the connection to the remote unit

is made, you can change the configuration as required. Once the configuration is changed, you can

download the new configuration to the remote MultiVOIP. Refer to the Modem-Based Remote

Configuration Procedure in this chapter to remotely configure a MultiVOIP 400/800.

1. At the remote site, remove the serial cable from the PC to the Command Port connector on the

back panel of the MultiVOIP 400/800.

2. At the remote site, connect a special cable (Remote Configuration Cable) from the Command

Port connector on the back panel of the MultiVOIP 400/800 to the RS-232 connector on the

modem. The special cable is a serial cable with male connectors on both ends. Refer to Appendix

B for cable details.

Connect the modem to your local telephone line.

Provide your telephone number to the person verifying your configuration.

Configure the remote modem for 19200 baud and turn on Force DTR.

3. At the main site, connect your local PC to a modem that is connected to a dial-up line.

4. Install the MultiVOIP 400/800 software on the local PC. When installed, click Start | Programs |

MultiVOIP 800 | Configuration Port Setup, or double click on the Configuration Port icon in

the MultiVOIP 400/800 program group.

5. The MultiVOIP 800 Setup dialog box is displayed.
