Configuring NAT

NAT (Network Address Translation) is the translation of an IP address used within one network to a different IP address known within another network. One network is designated as the inside network, the other is the outside. The Alti-IP 600H can be enabled to support H.323 behind NAT. The Alti-IP 600H will be able to work behind a regular NAT router without any special implementation for H.323.

For more detailed information regarding NAT configuration guidelines and implementation, refer to the AltiWare OE/ACC or ACM System Administration Manual.

Note: If more than one Alti-IP 600H phone sits behind NAT, a VPN tunnel is required to connect between the NAT router and the corporate router.

Assigning NAT

By default, NAT is not enabled. If you connect the Alti-IP 600H behind a NAT router, you may manually assign the NAT router’s public IP address to this field.

To assign the NAT address, use the following steps:

1.Press * * 7 + ENTER button.

2. Use / to select Network, then press the ENTER button.

3.Scroll to Enable NAT.

4. Press (DOWN key) to select YES.

5.Press the ENTER button.

6. Use (BACK key) to return to the Network menu, then select NAT Address.

Use the buttons on the dial pad to enter the new NAT address, using the * key to enter periods. Use (BACK key) to correct any mistakes.

7.Press the ENTER button.
