V7122 gateway completes the restart, Ready and LAN LEDs on the front panel are lit green.

10After the gateway is reset, configure the V7122 gateway trunk parameters. For information about configuring the trunk parameters, see Configuring the Trunk Settings.

SIP users should continue with Section Configuring the Trunk Settings.

The following sections from here, up to the end of this Guide, apply equally to H.323, and SIP.

Configuring the Trunk Settings

To configure the trunk settings, follow these 14 steps:

1Access the Embedded Web Server (see Accessing the Embedded Web Server).

2Open the Trunk Settings screen (Advanced Configuration menu > Trunk Settings); the Trunk Settings screen is displayed.

Initially, the screen appears with the parameters fields grayed (indicating read-only). The Stop Trunk button appears at the bottom of the screen. The Trunk Status indicators appear colored. Table 7 shows the possible indicators and their descriptions.
