1.2 Gateway Description
The MP-40x (MediaPack) is an Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN), Basic-Rate
Interface (BRI) VoIP media gateway. The MediaPack is best suited for small to medium
size enterprises, branch offices, or residential media gateway solutions implementing
ISDN. The MediaPack seamlessly migrates these environments to VoIP by connecting
legacy ISDN telephones, fax machines, and PBX systems (as well as for integration with
new IP-based PBX architecture) with BRI lines to the IP network. The MediaPack gateways
enable users to make free local or international telephone or fax calls between distributed
company offices, using their existing telephones or faxes. These calls are routed over the
existing network ensuring that voice traffic uses minimum bandwidth.
This stand-alone MediaPack BRI VoIP gateway offers superior voice technology as well as
state-of-the-art end-users features such as T.38 fax relay and G.168-2002 compliant Echo
Cancellation. In addition, low bit-rate (LBR) voice coders are supported, saving valuable
bandwidth.
The MediaPack complies with leading VoIP standards and is designed and tested to be
fully interoperable with leading softswitches and SIP servers. The MediaPack supports
Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and H.323 protocols, enabling the deployment of VoIP
solutions in environments where each enterprise or residential location is provided with a
simple media gateway.
The MediaPack gateway spans a range of up to four BRI S/T interface ports (RJ-45) for
connection to an enterprise PBX (FXO), ISDN phones, fax machines, and computers. The
ports can be configured for network (NT) or terminal equipment (TE) side for interfacing
with ISDN (CO) or PBX.
Each BRI S/T port supports up to two voice/data channels (i.e., two B-channels) and one
signaling channel (i.e. D-channel). Thus, the MediaPack supports up to eight simultaneous
VoIP channels. In addition, the gateway can support up to 32 TE devices (e.g., ISDN
telephones) when implementing an S/T bus (8 devices per BRI S/T port).
In addition to the four BRI channels, the MediaPack provides a fifth BRI interface for
supporting lifeline telephony services in the event of a power outage. This lifeline BRI
interface supports an ISDN connection to the ISDN/PSTN network (instead of the IP
network), and can connect at least one ISDN phone to the ISDN network.
The MediaPack supports ISDN fallback in case of power failure or network deterioration. In
such a scenario, the ISDN port is switched to the redundant port, which is connected to the
ISDN network (i.e., PSTN).
The MediaPack provides two 10/100 Base-TX Ethernet ports for interfacing with the Local
Area Network (LAN) and Wide Area Network (WAN). In addition, the MediaPack provides
integrated router capabilities such as NAT, DHCP Server and Client and a PPPoE client for
the Ethernet interfaces.
The MediaPack gateway is a compact device that can be mounted on desktop, wall, or in a
standard 19-inch rack using shelf racks.
The MediaPack gateway offers remote management and configuration by providing an
Embedded Web Server. This user-friendly Web interface can be accessed by using
standard Web browsers (Microsoft™ Internet Explorer or Firefox).

Figure 1-1: Typical MediaPack BRI VoIP Application
1.3 SIP Overview
SIP (Session Initialization Protocol) is an application-layer control (signaling) protocol used
on the MediaPack for creating, modifying, and terminating sessions with one or more
participants. These sessions can include Internet telephone calls, media announcements
and conferences.
SIP invitations are used to create sessions and carry Session Description Protocol (SDP)
messages that enable participants to agree on a set of compatible media types. SIP uses
elements called Proxy servers to help route requests to the user's current location,
authenticate and authorize users for services, implement provider call-routing policies and
provide features to users.
SIP also provides a registration function that enables users to upload their current locations
for use by Proxy servers. SIP, on the MediaPack, complies with the IETF (Internet
Engineering Task Force) RFC 3261 (refer to http://www.ietf.org
).

1.4.3 Telephony Capabilities
1.4.3.1 Supplementary Services
The MediaPack SIP gateway supports the following supplementary services:
Hold / Retrieve; refer to 'Call Hold and Retrieve' below.
Transfer (Refer and Replaces); refer to 'Call Transfer' on page 20.
Call Forward (3xx Redirect Responses); refer to 'Call Forward' on page 21.
Call Waiting (182 Queued Response); refer to 'Call Waiting' on page 21.
The above services are permanently active and cannot be disabled.
For example setups of Supplementary Services, refer to Section 'Configuring
Supplementary Services' on page 168'.
1.4.3.1.1 Call Hold and Retrieve
Call Hold and Retrieve can be initiated by using the corresponding features of the ISDN
Phone.
Hold is performed by sending a REINVITE with the IP address 0.0.0.0 and ‘a=inactive’ in
the SDP.
The ISDN user can retrieve the call using the appropriate features of the ISDN phone.
1.4.3.1.2 Call Transfer
The system supports call transfer by the SIP side. The system supports the following two
types of call transfers:
Consultation Transfer (Refer and Replaces)
The common way to perform a consultation transfer is as follows:
In the transfer scenario, there are three parties: Party A = transferring, Party B =
transferred and Party C = transferred to.
• A Calls B.
• B answers.
• A holds the call and dials a call to C.
• A connects B to C, and then A disconne cts.
• After the transfer is complete, the B and C parties engage in a call.
Blind Transfer (Refer)
Blind transfer is performed after we have a call between A and B, and party A decides
to transfer the call to C immediately without speaking with C. It can do so by sending a
REFER message.
The result of the transfer is a call between B and C (similar to consultation transfer,
but skipping the consultation stage).
Page 21
User's Manual 1. Overview
Version 2.2 21 July 2007
1.4.3.1.3 Call Forward
The gateway supports call forward using 3xx responses. If the gateway receives a 3xx
response to an invite, the call is forwarded to the new destination.
1.4.3.1.4 Call Waiting
The gateway supports Call Waiting using the SIP Queued message. If a Queued message
is received, the gateway plays the Queued tone to the ISDN phone.
1.4.3.2 Fax and Modem Settings
Fax and modem settings are described in 'Configuring Fax and Modem' on page 164.
1.4.4 Networking Capabilities
1.4.4.1 Ethernet Interface Configuration
In the current version, Ethernet configuration is supported only by CLI and configuration
file. Both interfaces (LAN and WAN), support the following modes:
Auto: enables auto negotiation
10T: interface configured for 10 Mbps Half duplex
10TX: interface configured for 10 Mbps Full duplex
100T: interface configured for 100 Mbps Half duplex
100Tx: interface configured for 100 Mbps Full duplex
To configure the Media settings using CLI, refer to Section 'IP ' on page 118.
Page 22
MediaPack BRI Series
User's Manual 22 Document #: LTRT-83702
1.4.4.2 Netw ork Address Translation (NAT) Support
The below illustrates the supported NAT architecture.
Figure 1-2: NAT Functioning
The gateway uses NAT on the WAN interface. To allow successful calls to the WAN, the
SIP must use the WAN IP address for signaling. To do this, set the SIP Local interface to
the WAN interface (refer to 'SIP Proxy & Registration ' on page 82).
Because NAT is always enabled on the WAN interface, packets from LAN to WAN are
masqueraded and assume the WAN IP address.
1.4.4.3 Multiple Routers Support
Multiple routers support is designed to assist the media gateway when it operates in a
multiple routers network.
To support multiple routers, you can configure multiple static routes. For a description on
adding or removing static routes, refer to Section 'Static Routes' on page 123.

When installing the chassis in a rack, be sure to implement the following Safety
instructions recommended by Underwriters Laboratories:
• Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack
assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be
greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to
installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum
ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
• Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that
the amount of air flow required for safe operation on the equipment is not
compromised.
• Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such
that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
• Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the
equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits
might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate
consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing
this concern.
• Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be
maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other
than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips.)

Figure 3-10: Trunk Lifeline Cabling
Figure 3-11: Single ISDN Subscriber Lifeline Cabling
Notes:
• In the cable setup described above, the PSTN network is only
available upon a power outage. However, the Trunk interface that is
connected to the Lifeline port, can also be connected to an ISDN S/T
interface port (except S/T 0), by using an S-bus splitter. In such a
setup, the PSTN network is always available.
• The ISDN phone must be configured with an MSN number(s) received
from the Service Provider.
• The Lifeline cable setup can be reversed (i.e., the ISDN phone can be
connected to the Lifeline port, and the PSTN network can be
connected to the S/T 0 port). However, in such a configuration, the
ISDN phone can only be used upon a power outage.
• The Lifeline feature is only supported by certain MediaPack models
(i.e., MP-404 /BRI /ST /AC /LL and MP-408 /BRI /ST /AC /LL) and
therefore, only these models provide a Lifeline port.

User's Manual 36 Document #: LTRT-83702
3.4.6 Connecting the PSTN Fallback Port
The Fallback feature uses identical cabling as the normal ports. The PSTN fallback port
allocation depends on the MediaPack model:
MP-404 /BRI /ST /AC /FB: ports 0 and 1 are interconnected if the gateway is not
powered
MP-408 /BRI /ST /AC /FB: ports 0 and 1, and ports 2 and 3 are interconnected if the
gateway is not powered
Figure 3-12: Fallback Cabling (MP-404 /BRI /ST /AC /FB and MP-408 /BRI /ST /AC /FB)
Warning: If Fallback is activated on two ports that are configured as user side,
damage can be caused to external equipment. Ports 2 and 0 must be
configured as Point to Point, User side interfaces. For additional
information on configuring the ISDN ports, refer to Chapter 6.
Notes:
• If ports 0 and 1, and ports 2 and 3 are configured identically (both user
and both net side), Fallback does not function.
• If ports 0 and 1, or ports 2 and 3 are conf igured as user side (i.e.,

5 MediaPack Configuration Tools
The MediaPack provides a rich set of configuration tools for configuring the MediaPack
parameters:
Embedded Web Server based on HTTP for local and remote configuration, accessed
using a standard Web browser (refer to Section 'Embedded Web Server' on page 64)
Embedded Command Line Interface - CLI (refer to Section 'Embedded Command
Line Interface' on page 68).
Configuration file (refer to Section 'MediaPack Configuration File' on page 73)
Throughout this chapter, where the embedded Web server's parameters are described, the
corresponding CLI commands are given (depicted in square brackets).
5.1 Configuration Concepts
The MediaPack provides two types of configurations:
Running configuration
Persistent configuration
Note: This section is only relevant to the CLI and to the Configuration file. In other
words, it isn’t relevant when the embedded Web server is used to configure
the MediaPack.
5.1.1 Running Configuration
The running configuration is the MediaPack's currently active configuration (it reflects the
actual system’s state). On startup, the persistent configuration is loaded to the running
configuration. The running configuration can only be modified by the CLI or over the Web.
The running configuration can be copied to the startup configuration (refer to Section
'Saving Configuration Settings on the MediaPack' on page 146).
5.1.2 Persistent Configuration
The persistent configuration is used at boot up to configure the system (refer to the figure
below).
There are three types of persistent configurations:
Built-in configuration: configuration compiled into the code itself. It contains minimal
configuration settings. This configuration is applied to the MediaPack if no other
configuration is present.
Factory configuration: configuration stored in the internal file system. It contains the
default configuration and cannot be erased from flash.
Startup configuration: configuration that is modified and created by the user. The
startup-configuration is a configuration stored in the internal file system. It's the main
configuration file. On boot, this file is loaded to the MediaPack. You can upload this
configuration to a host (refer to Section 'Saving a Configuration File to a PC' on page
148) or download an existing configuration file to the MediaPack (refer to Section
'Loading a Configuration File' on page 150).
Page 64
MediaPack BRI Series
User's Manual 64 Document #: LTRT-83702
Only one configuration is loaded to the running configuration when the MediaPack starts up
(according to the figure below).
Figure 5-1: Loading Persistent Configuration
5.2 Embedded Web Server
The MediaPack gateway contains an embedded HTTP server that provides a user-friendly
client Web interface.
This section provides an overview of the Embedded Web Server and includes the following
subsections:

5.3.2 CLI Modes
As described above, the gateway can be managed using the CLI. The CLI allows you to
manage the configuration file, reconfigure the running system, query the system state,
display debug messages, and execute supplementary commands such as ping.
The CLI supports three main modes:
Operator Execution Mode: allows you to execute operator-related commands such
as ping and various show commands to view the system state
Execution Mode with administrative privileges: allows you to execute advanced
commands available only to users with administrative privileges
Configuration Mode: allows you to configure the system. The Configuration mode is
divided into several logical sub-modes. Figure 5-3 below is an overview of the main
configuration modes:
Figure 5-3: Overview of Configuration Modes
The current mode is reflected at the prompt as follows:

Page 73
User's Manual 5. MediaPack Configuration Tools
Version 2.2 73 July 2007
5.4 MediaPack Configuration File
As an alternative to configuring the VoIP gateway using the Web interface (described in
Section 'Embedded Web Server' on page 64) or the CLI (refer to Section 'Embedded
Command Line Interface' on page 68), you can configure the MediaPack by loading the
configuration file containing customer-configured parameters.
The configuration file is loaded to the MediaPack using the Web interface or the CLI using
a standard TFTP server (refer to Section 'Loading a Configuration File' on page 150).
The configuration file is stored in the MediaPack's non-volatile memory after the file is
loaded. When a parameter is missing from the configuration file, a default value is assigned
to that parameter. Therefore, to restore the default configuration parameters, load an
empty configuration file to the MediaPack.
Notes:
• Some of the MediaPack parameters are only config urable through the
configuration file or the CLI (and not through the Web interface).
• The configuration file can o nly be used to change the startup
configuration. Therefore, after loading this file to the MediaPack (via
CLI or Web), the MediaPack must be reset for the changes to take
affect.
5.4.1 Configuration File Structure
The structure of the configuration file is similar to the structure of the CLI. For example,
specific parameters must be entered in context of their operation mode, and the
Configuration Modes that aren’t updated on-the-fly must be terminated with a ‘no
shutdown’ command (refer to Section 'Shutdown / No Shutdown' on page 72).
The following general rules apply to the structure of the configuration file:
Lines beginning with a number ‘#’ sign (as the first character) are ignored.
A carriage return must be the final character of each line.
The configuration file must end with one or more carriage returns.
5.4.2 Modifying a Configuration File
¾ To modify the configuration file:
1. Save the configuration file on the gateway to a folder on your PC using the CLI or
embedded Web server (refer to Section 'Saving a Configuration File to a PC' on page
148), or alternatively use the default Configuration file supplied with the SW package.
2. Open the file (the file is opened in Notepad or a Customer-defined text file editor) and
modify the configuration file parameters according to your requirements; save and
close the file.
3. Load the modified configuration file to the gateway using CLI or the Embedded Web
Server (refer to Section 'Loading a Configuration File' on page 150).

6.2.2.1 ISDN General Settings
The ISDN General Settings option opens the 'ISDN General Parameters' screen. This
screen allows you to configure the ISDN synchronization clock source and the tone set.
In order to operate correctly, all the ISDN devices in the network must be synchronized.
For ISDN, the network provides the clock while the user-side equipment must synchronize
with the clock provided by the network. The MediaPack has five optional clock sources:
One internal clock
Four ISDN interfaces configured as user side
Below are several examples of the clock synchronization network architecture:
The PBX derives the clock from the PSTN and distributes clock synchronization to the
MediaPack (refer to Figure 6-4).
The MediaPack derives the clock from the PSTN and distributes clock synchronization
to the PBX (refer to Figure 6-5).
Page 89
User's Manual 6. Configuring the MediaPack
Version 2.2 89 July 2007
Figure 6-4: MediaPack Clock Synchronized by PBX
Figure 6-5: MediaPack Clock Synchronized by PSTN
Faulty synchronization scenario: The PBX derives the clock from the PSTN. However,
the PBX can't distribute the clock to the MediaPack as the MediaPack's network side
port configuration is unable to receive clock synchronization from the PBX. In such a
scenario, bit slips / bit errors occur on the connection between the PBX and the
MediaPack. Speech transmission may still be possible, but not fax transmission.
To resolve this clock synchronization problem, add a connection between the
MediaPack and the PSTN network. In such a setup, both the PBX and MediaPack
derive their clock synchronization from the PSTN network.

map call_progress_tone queuedtone Queuedtone_D
Note: The gateway supports a maximum of 16 different call progress tones. If two
or more “call-progress-tone” statements define the same tone, they are
internally summarized. In other words, the gateway can have more than 16
call progress tones as long as some of them are identical. Thus, if you
change one call progress tone, you might exceed this limit even if you did
not add a new tone. Please consult the event log after defining tones to
ensure there are no errors in configuration loading of the newly configured
Call Progress Tone.

6.2.2.4 Hunt Logic
ISDN Line hunting is achieved by aggregating several ISDN ports into one ISDN interface.
As described above, each ISDN port binds to an ISDN interface. If several ports bind to the
same ISDN interface, the ISDN interface selects a port with a free channel based on the
hunt logic defined in the ISDN interface. Note that hunt logic operates on ports and not on
B-channels. A port is considered non-free if there is no free channel on that port. And it is
considered free if there is at least one free channel.
The illustration below shows an example of an IP-to-ISDN call. The IP-to-Tel Call Routing
table (refer to Section 'IP to Tel Routing Table' on page 108) determines the ISDN
interface. The ISDN interface selects a B-channel on an available ISDN port.
Figure 6-9: ISDN Hunting Logic
6.2.2.5 Manipulation Tables
The VoIP gateway provides four Number Manipulation tables for incoming and outgoing
calls. These tables are used to modify the destination and source telephone numbers so
that the calls can be routed correctly. In additional to numbers, the manipulation tables
support manipulation roles based on signs and/or letters A possible use for number
manipulation can be to strip and add dialing plan digits from and to the number. For
example, a user could dial "9" in front of each number in order to indicate an external line.
This number ("9") can be removed before the call is setup.
The Manipulation Tables include the following tables:
IP to Tel Destination Number Manipulation Table for IP-to-Telephone (Tel) calls (refer
to Section 'IP-to-Tel Destination Numbers' on page 99)
Tel to IP Destination Number Manipulation Table for Tel-to-IP calls (refer to Section
'Tel-to-IP Destination Numbers' on page 101)
Page 99
User's Manual 6. Configuring the MediaPack
Version 2.2 99 July 2007
IP to Tel Source Number Manipulation Table for IP-to-Tel calls (refer to Section 'IP-to-
Tel Source Numbers' on page 102)
Tel to IP Source Number Manipulation Table for Tel-to-IP calls (refer to Section 'Tel-
to-IP Source Numbers' on page 104)
Note: Number manipulation can occur either before or after a routing decision is
made. For example, you can route a call to a specific ISDN interface
according to its original number, and then you can remove or add a prefix
to that number before it is routed. To configure whether number
manipulation is performed before or after call routing, use the 'Routing &
Manipulation' parameter in the SIP Proxy & Registration screen (described
in Section 'SIP Proxy & Registration Settings' on page 82.
Note: the actions strip leave add are executed in the following order: strip (prefix/suffix); leave; add
(prefix/suffix)
6.2.2.6 IP-to-Tel Destination Numbers
The IP to Tel Destination Number Manipulation table is used to change the destination
number received in IP-to-telephone incoming calls. The table is processed from top to
bottom, where the first matching rule is used to manipulate the number. Processing stops
after the first manipulation.
Note: For a description on the convention for entering telephone numbers in the
Manipulation tables, refer to Section 'Convention for Entering Phone
Numbers in Tables' on page 66.
¾ To configure IP-to-Tel destination numbers:
1. Open the IP to Tel Destination Number Manipulation Table (Protocol Management
menu > Manipulation Tables submenu > IPÆTel Destination Numbers option).
