Chapter 8 - Remote Configuration and Management

LAN-Based

The LAN-based remote configuration requires a Windows Sockets compliant TCP/IP stack. TCP/IP protocol software must be installed and functional before the configuration program can be used.

1.You must assign an Internet (IP) address for the PC and for each node that will be managed by the configuration program. Refer to the protocol software documentation for instructions on how to set the IP addresses. It is recommended that you ping each MultiVOIP to verify the connection and its IP address.

Once you have completed this step, you should be able to use the protocol Ping command for the PC host name. You should also test the network interface configuration by Pinging another TCP/IP device that is connected to the network.

2.Install the MVP120 software on the local PC. When installed, click Start Programs MultiVOIP 100 Configuration Port Setup, or double-click the Configuration Port Setup icon in the MultiVOIP 100 program group.

3.The MultiVOIP Port Setup dialog box displays.

Verify that IP is set for the Communication Type.

In the MultiVOIP IP Address box, enter the IP Address of the remote MultiVOIP.

4.Click OK when you are satisfied with your selections.

5.Run the MultiVOIP Configuration program. Click Start Programs MultiVOIP 100 MultiVOIP Configuration, or double-click the MultiVOIP Configuration icon in the MultiVOIP 100 program group.

6.The MultiVOIP 100 Setup dialog box displays. This is the dialog box of the remote MultiVOIP. Refer to the online Help provided with your MultiVOIP for the definition of each dialog box and field within a dialog box.
