61.8 Linksys SPA3102 configuration

The Praesideo PC Telephone Interface Client connects directly to VoIP networks. In case a connection should be established to an analog telephone or PBX a converter is needed.

Although the Linksys SPA3102 Voice Gateway is certainly not the only device that can be used with the Praesideo PC Telephone Interface Client to connect to analog telephone lines (POTS), this unit is recommended for its availability, price and ease of configuration.

This section describes how to configure the Linksys SPA3102 for use with the Telephone Interface. It covers the device initialization, network configuration, connection with the Telephone Interface and disconnect detection.

61.8.2 Network configuration

The device will now be configured in such a way that both configuration and telephone traffic will run through the Internet port. This port is also the port used to connect to the network containing the PC of the PC Telephone Interface Client.

Connect the PC network adapter of a PC to the Ethernet port of the SPA3102. Configure the PC network adapter to dynamically acquire an IP address (from the SPA3102). This will be in the 192.168.0.x range. Once the IP address is acquired, start a web browser and open http://192.168.0.1. The SPA3102 web configuration page opens.

Click 'Admin login' and click 'Advanced'. Make sure both modes are active in order to access all configuration fields.

Router → Wan Setup → Static IP Settings Static IP: <WAN IP address> NetMask: <Network mask>

Router → Wan Setup → Remote Management Enable WAN Web Server: yes

Click 'Submit all changes'

Now, the Ethernet port is no longer required. The web configuration is now accessible using the Internet port and the WAN IP address.

61.8.1 Device initialization

To make sure that previous configuration settings do not interfere with the flow of this configuration, first perform the factory reset procedure. Remove all connectors from the device. Connect a telephone to the Phone port.

Connect the power connector. Dial '****', wait for the menu response, dial '73738#', dial '1', hang-up. The device will now reset.

Note

The combination <WAN IP address> and <Network mask> should be provided by the network administrator to cover both the Linksys unit and the network address of the PC that runs the PC Telephone Interface Client.

61.8.3 PSTN configuration

Now the device will be configured to register itself on the Telephone Interface server and to forward incoming calls from the PSTN port directly to the Telephone Interface server. Make sure that 'Admin Login' and 'Advanced' are active.
