1.2.1.1 Internet Single User Account

For a SOHO (Small Office/Home Office) environment, your Prestige offers the Single User Account (SUA) feature that allows multiple users on the LAN (Local Area Network) to access the Internet concurrently for the cost of a single IP address

1.2.2 Making Calls via Internet Telephony Service Provider

In a home or small office environment, you can use the Prestige to make and receive VoIP telephone calls through an Internet Telephony Service Provider (ITSP).

The following figure shows a basic example of how you would make a VoIP call through an ITSP. You use your analog phone (A in the figure) and the Prestige (B) changes the call into VoIP. The Prestige then sends your call to the Internet and the ITSP’s SIP server. The VoIP call server forwards calls to PSTN phones (E) through a trunking gateway (D) to the PSTN network. The VoIP call server forwards calls to IP phones (F) through the Internet.
