1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Digicom VoiceGATE is the ideal solution for the new Telecom Operators who want to take at
home or office the new POTs with integration of Voice (Voice over IP) and Internet. VoiceGATE
has 3 Ethernet ports (10/100) for the connection of local devices (Personal Computer, Printers,
etc.), 2 analog ports and, optional, 1 SO ISDN bus with 2 RJ45 ports (for the connection ISDN
telephones).
The connection to the network backbone (Uplink) will take place through the Ethernet
10/100BT or optionally via xDSL.
VoiceGATE integrates the Router function. The hardware architecture of VoiceGATE uses an
ARM9 microprocessor of latest generation at 140 Mips, which guarantees, in Router mode, a
throughput of more than 15 Mbps in full-duplex.
Through the VoIP functions it is possible to connect up to 2 analog devices (Telephones,
Modem, Fax) using the protocols G.711, G.723.1, G.729 A for all the voice functions.
VoiceGATE can be used with two different VoIP configurations:with and without GateKeeper.
The GateKeeper is a device that takes care of associating the telephone address with the IP
address.
To simply use the VoIP in your network, Digicom carried out a Address book inside VoiceGATE
to avoid the use of the Gatekeeper.
VoiceGATE can be used both in network with Gatekeeper and with the address book. In case
you will not use the Gatekeeper, it will be possible to configure the address book through a
graphic utility. (VoiceGate AddressBook.exe).

2.0 Configuration
VoiceGATE can be configured using a Web browser. (Explore, Netascape, etc). This chapter
describes the test to carry out on the computer to enter the configuration and the procedure to
save the mofications in the configuration. In the paragraph “VoiceGATE working test”
you find the procedures to carry out your first tests with Digicom’s VoiceGATEs. Just
few operations and you will be able to install and test two VoiceGATEs. Then all the
configuration menus will be described.
2.1 Computer configuration
Setup minimum requirements:
• 1 PC with 10/100BT Ethernet card
• 1 LAN UTP cable Cat 5 Cross
• Browser (Explorer or Netscape)
To go on with VoiceGate setup, be sure the PC IP address belongs to the same network of
VoiceGate (example 192.168.2.xxx).
To enter the setup menu, go on as follows:
1. Setup the TCP/IP protocol for the PC Ethernet card with an IP address of the same
network of VoiceGate (example 192.168.2.3). Do not use 192.168.2.1 (default
address) and 192.168.2.2 (test address).
2. Connect the PC to VoiceGate on the Wan port using a cross LAN cable.
3. Turn on VoiceGate and wait it finishes the Start Up procedure (about 45 sec.)
4. Once the Start Up phase is finished, the led LAN will be off.
