DESCRIPTION

 

 

Session Expires

Use this field to set the longest time that the Prestige will allow a SIP session to

 

remain idle (without traffic) before dropping it.

Min-SE

When two SIP devices negotiate a SIP session, they must negotiate a common

 

expiration time for idle SIP sessions. This field sets the shortest expiration time that

 

the Prestige will accept. The Prestige checks the session expiration values of

 

incoming SIP INVITE requests against the minimum session expiration value that

 

you configure here. If the session expiration of an incoming INVITE request is less

 

than the value you configure here, the Prestige negotiates with the other SIP

 

device to increase the session expiration value to match the Prestige’s minimum

 

session expiration value.

RTP Port Range

Real time Transport Protocol is used to handle voice data transfer. Use these fields

 

to configure the Prestige’s listening port range for RTP traffic. Leave these fields

 

set to the defaults if you were not given a range of RTP ports to use.

Preferred

Use this field to select the type of voice coder/decoder (codec) that you want the

Compression

Prestige to use. G.711 provides higher voice quality than G.729 but requires

Type

64kbps of bandwidth while G.729 only requires 8kbps.

 

Select G.711>G.729 if you want the Prestige to first attempt to use the G.711

 

codec and then the G.729 codec if the peer is not set up to use G.711.

 

Select G.711 only if you want the Prestige to only use the G.711 codec when

 

making VoIP calls. You will not be able to connect to a peer that is not set up to use

 

G.711.

 

Select G.729>G.711 if you want the Prestige to first attempt to use the G.729

 

codec and then the G.711 codec if the peer is not set up to use G.729.

 

Select G.729 only if you want the Prestige to only use the G.729 codec when

 

making VoIP calls. You will not be able to connect to a peer that is not set up to use

 

G.729.

DTMF Mode

The Dual Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) mode sets how the Prestige handles the

 

tones that your telephone makes when you push its buttons. It is recommended

 

that you use the same mode that your VoIP service provider uses.

 

Select RFC 2833 to send the DTMF tones in RTP packets.

 

Select PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) to include the DTMF tones in the voice data

 

stream. This method works best when you are using a codec that does not use

 

compression (like G.711). Codecs that use compression (like G.729) could distort

 

the tones.

 

Select SIP INFO to send the DTMF tones in SIP messages.

 

 

MWI

Enable Message Waiting Indication (MWI) to have your phone give you a

 

message–waiting (beeping) dial tone when you have a voice message(s). Your

 

voice service provider must have a messaging system that supports this feature.

Expiration

Use this field to set how long the SIP server should continue providing the

Time

message waiting service after receiving a SIP SUBSCRIBE message from the

 

Prestige.

 

The SIP server stops providing the message waiting service if it has not received

 

another SIP SUBSCRIBE message from the Prestige before this time period

 

expires.

Call Forward

Select which call forwarding table you want the Prestige to use to block or redirect

Table

calls. You can use a different call forwarding table for each SIP account or use the

 

same call forwarding table for both.
