Figure 8. VoIP Configuration Example

Node 100 and Node 200 are configured with FXS Voice ports. The branch office phone can be configured as an extension phone number off the head office’s PBX. The nodes connect to the Ethernet LAN and therefore an Ethernet port must be configured for each node. The associated IP interface parameters must also be configured. To carry voice traffic over the IP network, the SoTCP parameters must be configured.

Recommended The following table describes the recommended sequence to configure a PathBuilder

Sequence for S200 series switch for VoIP. Refer to Figure 9 for the list of configurable parameters.
