Configuring AastraLink Pro 160 System and Network Parameters

Configuring VoIP Settings

When you enable AastraLink trunking, you assign a unique access digit to each AastraLink device in your network. For example, suppose you assign the access digit 1 to the AastraLink in the Boston office. Then, the dial prefix for the Boston office is as follows:

dial prefix Boston = 7 + 1 + (number)

If you are located in the Atlanta office, and you want to reach extension 200 in the Boston office, you would dial 71200.

Note: Calls between AastraLink systems require a flat network topology, and do not support UPnP / static port-forwarding. (For example, the trunks do not work through NAT firewall connections).

Connections between sites should be done using either VPN routing or wide-area direct routing so that the AastraLink to AastraLink trunk connections do not traverse a network address translation boundary.

Configuration Parameters

The parameters you can specify for AastraLink trunking are:

•Hostname

Specifies the IP address or FQDN of the remote AastraLink.

•Username

Specifies the user name (a simple number string) that you use to access the trunk. For example, 100.

•Port

Specifies the port number of the remote AastraLink on which communications are received. By default this is set to 4569.

Configuration Guidelines

When you configure AastraLink Pro 160 trunks, note the following guidelines:

•You can configure a maximum of 10 AastraLink trunks and user names on a single AastraLink Pro 160 device.

•You must assign the same user name to each end of the trunk.

•AastraLink IP phone network can have the same, or different, dialing plans.
