Set Up SIP trunk with Les.net on IP Office

Setting up a SIP trunk between the IP Office and Les.net (Compliments of Kyle L Holladay Sr., R.I.P.)

In this example we will configure a SIP trunk between the Avaya IP Office and LES.net using a static IP address assigned to LAN1 behind a firewall/NAT. Alternative configurations would include registration which is supported by LES.net for users with a dynamic IP addresses or you could assign a public IP to the IP Office on LAN2 outside of your firewall/NAT.

First we need to obtain the IP address of the LES.net SIP server. Because the IP Office does not use DNS to resolve the name of the SIP server you will want to use PING on your PC to resolve this name. From your computer enter ping did.voip.les.net from the command line (CMD) and make note of the IP address that is returned. From this point on we will use 64.34.181.47 to refer to the LES.net SIP server.
Use CMD to ping did.voip.les.net

Send a message to a group of people in Voicemail Pro

Sometimes you need to send a message to a bunch of recipients. You have 2 options if using Voicemail Pro.

Users Personal Distribution List (Intuity Mode ONLY).

In 9.0, VM Pro can modify users distribution lists. (in pre 9.0 systems, you can only modify on the mailbox using the TUI) Each user can have 20 Distribution lists, and each list can have up to 360 mailboxes in it. These lists can be public (can be used by anyone) or private (Used by everyone, but only the owner can modify the list.).

Log into the Voicemail Pro Admin client. Click the name of the server in the upper right and go to Users. Find the user you wish to create a Distribution list for, and right click, then “MailBox Details”. Select the Personal Distribution lists tab. Here you can name it, and add users.

Set/Show IP address for IP Office

Although normally done from within the the Manager program, you can also display or change the IP adresss of either LAN port via the RS232 (DTE) Maintenance port on the back of the IP Office. They may be instances where this is useful.

DTE Port Settings:

Access to the DTE port requires a (straight) serial cable between your PC/Laptop and the IP Office.
Configure PuTTY, HyperTerminal, etc, for serial as follows: 38,400 – 8 – N – 1 – None – VT100

Procedure:

Enter the following commands (in bold) when the IPOffice is up and running:

DTE Port Programming

This procedure will allow you to reconfigure an Avaya IP Office back to factory defaults if you don’t know the units IP Address or password using the DTE serial port on the back of an IP Office Control Unit.

Overview

The DTE port on the back of an IP Office Control Unit is not normally used when configuring an IP Office system. However the DTE port can be used to erase the system’s operational software and/or configuration if necessary.

Due to the drastic nature of these actions they should only be performed if absolutely necessary to return a system back to working order. In either case you must ensure that you have a backup copy of the system configuration.

Adding licenses to IP Office

Various IP Office features and applications require entry of license keys into the system’s configuration. License keys are unique 32-character codes based on the feature being activated and the Feature Key Dongle (System SD Card) serial number.

The serial number is printed on the Feature Key Dongle and prefixed with (IP500) or FK (IP500 V2). It can also be viewed in the system configuration using IP Office Manager. You’ll need this number to order a new License key for a new feature.

Listen to another extension in IP Office

Monitor (Listen to) a call on another extension(Compliments of Kyle L Holladay, Sr, R.I.P.)

In this example we will program the IP Office to allow extension 1152 to listen to (Call Listen) extension 1153. While we will focus on the Call Listen feature in this example the programming for Call Intrude is identical with the exception of the button programmed to perform the Listen/Intrude action.

Call Listen: allows one user to listen in on another user’s call but does not allow that user to be an active participant. This is a “listen only” feature.
Call Intrude: allows one user to intrude on another user’s call thus becomming a full participant in the conversation. The use of the MUTE feature can make this a listen only action however the intruding party can fully participate in the voice conversation at any time.
