MultiVOIP User Guide Overview

RADIUS Support. Inter-operation with a RADIUS server allows for call accounting (especially for billing) on a voip system. The MultiVOIP supports inter-operation with RADIUS servers for the RADIUS accounting function (but not the RADIUS authentication function).

STUN Support. The STUN protocol (Simple Traversal of UDP through NATs (Network Address Translation)) assists with the packet routing functions of devices behind NAT firewalls or routers. The MultiVOIP supports inter-operation with STUN servers and NATs (SIP based environment only).

Gatekeeper. T1 voip systems can have gatekeeper functionality by adding, as an endpoint, a Multi-Tech standalone gatekeeper (special software residing in separate hardware). Gatekeepers are optional but useful within voip systems. The gatekeeper acts as the ‘clearinghouse’ for all calls within its zone. MultiTech’s stand-alone gatekeeper software performs all of the standard gatekeepers functions (address translation, admission control, and bandwidth control) and also supports many valuable optional functions (call control signaling, call authorization, bandwidth management, and call management).

Management. Configuration and system management can be done locally with the MultiVOIP configuration software. After an IP address has been assigned locally, other configuration can be done remotely using the MultiVOIP web browser GUI. Remote system management can be done with the MultiVoipManager SNMP software or via the MultiVOIP web browser GUI. All of these control software packages are included on the Product CD.
