Chapter 3 Configuring Voice Service and Voicemail

Configuring the SPA400 for PSTN Connectivity or Voicemail

Configuring the SPA9000 to Register the SPA400

This section describes how to configure three settings on the SPA9000 that are required to register the SPA400 with the SPA9000.

Step 1 Select the appropriate Line tab from the SPA9000 administration web server .

Step 2 On the Line page for the line assigned to the SPA400, make sure the following fields match the settings entered in the SPA400 configuration:

SIP settings—SIP port = 5060

This is the default SIP port. Only change this value if a different port is configured on the SPA400 for some reason.

Subscriber information—User ID = SPA400_User_ID

Replace SPA400_User_ID with the value entered on the User ID field of the SPA9000 Interface on the Setup tab of the SPA400 In the example, this value is SPA9000.

Proxy and registration—Proxy = SPA400 IP Address

Replace SPA400_IP_Address with the actual IP address of the SPA400. In the example, this is 192.168.1.103.

Step 3 Click the Submit All Changes button on the SPA9000 administration web server. The SPA9000 device reboots.

The SPA9000 is now configured to access the PSTN through the SPA400.

Configuring the SPA400 Voicemail Services

The SPA400 includes a USB voicemail module for users (or extensions) configured on a SPA9000. The USB flash drive that ships with the SPA400 provides a total of 128 MB of storage for voicemail prompts and mailbox messages. The maximum length of an individual message is 180 seconds. Mailbox messages require 480KB per minute of recording time, so the flash disk can contain a total of more than 3 hours of mailbox messages.

When you receive the SPA400, you can back up the voicemail prompts and other files on the USB drive to a secure location on a PC or server on your network. You can then copy these files to a larger compatible USB drive, in case you need more voicemail storage. To determine if a USB drive is compatible, after copying the files to it, insert it into the USB port on the SPA400. View the status of the <<>> parameter on the SPA400 administration web server.

The integrated voicemail application server supports 32 configurable voicemail accounts enabling users to leave and play back voice messages. (Although a SPA9000 can be configured with up to 4 SPA400 devices, only 1 SPA400 can be configured with the voicemail application).

The SPA9000 can be configured with up to four SPA400 devices, the voice mail service can either concentrate with one SPA400 or distribute among the four SPA400. However, an IP Phone can only subscribe to one mailbox from one SPA400..

To configure the SPA400 to register with the SPA9000, complete the following steps.

Step 1 From the SPA400 administration web server, click Voicemail Server on the Setup tab (see Figure 3-17).
