Prestige 2000W_V2 User’s Guide

STUN

Simple Traversal of User Datagram Protocol (UDP) through Network Address Translators (STUN) allows SIP to pass through NAT routers.

Outbound Proxy

Some VoIP service providers use a SIP outbound server to handle voice calls. This allows the Prestige to work from behind any type of NAT router and eliminates the need for STUN or a SIP ALG (Application Layer Gateway).

Voice Coding

The Prestige can use the following voice codecs (coder/decoders).

G.711

G.729

Voice Activity Detection/Silence Suppression

Voice Activity Detection (VAD) reduces the bandwidth that a call uses by not transmitting when you are not speaking. This also helps increase the battery lifetime.

Comfort Noise Generation

The Prestige generates background noise to fill moments of silence when the other device in a call stops transmitting because the other party is not speaking (as total silence could easily be mistaken for a lost connection).

PPPoE

PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) facilitates the interaction of a host with an Internet modem to achieve access to high-speed data networks via a familiar "dial-up networking" user interface.

Firmware Upgrades

Use the web configurator to upload updated firmware to your Prestige.

1.2 Applications
