About this Administrator's Guide
The Quadro Manual is divided into three parts:
Manual-I: Installation Guide gives step-by-step instructions to provision the QuadroM IP PBX and configure the phone extensions with the Epygi
SIP Server. After successfully configuring the QuadroM IP PBX, users will be able to make SIP phone calls to remote Quadro devices, make local calls to the PSTN and access the Internet from devices connected to the LAN.
Manual-II: Administrator's Guide explains all Quadro management menus available for administrators only. It includes a list of all System
Default Values.
Manual-III: Extension User's Guide explains all Quadro management menus available for extension users. A list of all call codes can be found
there, too.
This guide contains many example screen illustrations. Since QuadroM IP PBXs offer a wide variety of features and functionality, the example screens shown may not appear exactly the same for your particular QuadroM IP PBX as they appear in this manual. The example screens are for illustrative and explanatory purposes, and should not be construed to represent your own unique environment.

Recurrent Functional Buttons
In connection with the tables, the following are the few buttons you will see:
Functional Button Description Add Allows adding a new record to the displayed table. A new page will be displayed to enter any new settings.
Edit Delete Deletes the selected entry(s) of a table. A warning message will ask for confirmation before deleting an existing entry.
Select All Selects all table entry(s) for example for further deletion.
Inverse Selection
Refresh in...
Most of the tables offer the option to sort the entries in ascending or descending order by clicking the headings of the columns. A small arrow next to the column heading indicates the direction of sorting - upward or downward. The entries of the table can be selected by using t he corresponding checkboxes in order to edit or delete them.
Allows modifying the settings of the record selected by a checkbox. Normally only one (1) record may be selected. A new page will be displayed to enter the modified settings.
Inverses (opposites) an existing selection of table entry(s). If no entries are selected, clicking the button will select all records.
May be shown in the upper right corner of a page. It displays the number of seconds remaining until the next refresh of the page will occur. It may be used to reload the page manually.
Entering SIP Addresses Correctly
Calls over IP are implemented based on Session Initiating Protocol (SIP) on the Quadro. When making a call to a destination that is somewhere on the Internet, a SIP address must be provided.
SIP addresses needs to be specified in one of the following formats: “display name” <username@ipaddress:port>
“display name” <username@ipaddress> username@ipaddress:port username@ipaddress username
For your convenience, the following combinations can be used:
*@ipaddress - any user from the specified SIP server
username@* - a specified user from any SIP server
*@* - any user from any SIP server
The display name and the port number are optional parameters in the SIP address. If a port is not specified, 5060 will be set up as the default one. The range of valid ports is between 1024 and 65536.
A flexible structure of wildcards is allowed. In comparison with a wildcard, the “?” character stands for only one unknown digit and the “*” character stands for any number of any digits.
Please Note: Wildcards are available for caller addresses only. No
wildcard characters are allowed for called party addresses. Exceptions are addresses in the Supplementary Addresses table that are used by Outgoing Call Blocking and Hiding Caller Information Settings services. To use “*” and “?” alone (as non wildcard characters), use “\*” and “\?” correspondingly.

System Configuration Wizard
The System Configuration Wizard allows the administrator to define the Quadro’s Local Area Network settings and to specify regional configuration settings to make Quadro operational in its LAN. The System Configuration Wizard MUST be run upon Quadro's first startup to make sure that it works properly in its network environment. The Wizard allows navigating through the following basic configuration parameters and settings:
System Configuration (see below)
DHCP Settings for the LAN Interface
Regional Settings and Preferences (see below)
Emergency Codes and PSTN Access Codes Settings (see below)
DHCP Settings for the LAN are described in the chapters below. The LAN configuration and regional settings will be described later in this chapter.
Please Note: It is strongly recommended to leave the
factory default settings if their meanings are not fully clear to the administrator.

The System Configuration page contains the host name, IP address and Subnet Mask information about the Quadro LAN interface. These settings make Quadro available to the internal network.
The System Configuration page offers the following input options:
Host Name requires a host name for the Quadro device. Domain Name requires the LAN side domain name which
the Quadro belongs to. IP Address requires the Quadro host address for the LAN
interface. Subnet Mask requires the Quadro hosts’ Subnet Mask.
The Regional Settings and Preferences are used to select settings specific to the location of the Quadro. This is important for the functionality of the voice subsystem.
The Regional Settings and Preferences page has two drop down lists to select the Location (country) and a corresponding Timezone. Quadro will support Daylight Savings (DST) correction if it is available for the selected time zone.
This page also has a manipulation radio button group to choose:
Fig. II-4: System Configuration Wizard - System Configuration page
System Language – selection is available only when
the custom Language Pack has been uploaded and it is used to enable custom language for system voice messages or returning back to the default language English.
GUI Theme - selection used to select the GUI theme
style of the web based configuration pages.
The Choose Theme on Login checkbox indicates
whether the GUI theme selection radio buttons should be displayed on the Quadro Login page. Selecting the checkbox will allow users to choose the GUI theme before logging into the Quadro. Leaving the checkbox unselected will require the administrator to run the System Configuration Wizard to change the theme.
The Emergency Codes and PSTN Access Codes Settings are used to configure the emergency dial plan.
The Emergency Codes text field requires the PSTN numbers of the emergency or lifeline services. Multiple emergency codes, separated by commas, can be inserted in this field. For each emergency code, a routing pattern will be generated in the Call Routing Table, which will allow faster and easier calls to emergency destinations.
The PSTN Access Code drop down list allows you to select the prefix code for accessing the PSTN line in the routing mode. Dialing the digits inserted in this text field will provide the PSTN dial tone when dialed from the handset.

Internet Configuration Wizard
The Internet Configuration Wizard allows the administrator to configure the WAN interface settings and to adjust Quadro’s connectivity with an external network. The Internet Configuration Wizard MUST be run for Quadro to be connected to the Internet.
All the settings of the Internet Configuration Wizard are described in the chapters below except those for the IP settings, which will be described in this chapter.
Attention: It is strongly recommended not to change the
factory default settings if their meanings are not full y clear to an administrator.
The Wizard allows navigating through the following basic configuration parameters and settings:

Uplink configuration (see below)
For WAN Interface protocol PPPoE:
PPP/ PPTP Settings
WAN Interface Configuration (see below)
DNS Settings
The Switch to Auto Provisioning link moves you to the Automatic Provisioning
The Upli nk Configuration page allows you to select the Quadro‘s WAN interface connection type and its bandwidth settings. These settings will make Quadro available to the external network.
Depending on the Uplink Interface Protocol selection, the page following the Uplink Configuration page is different. Thus if PPPoE is selected, the next page will be PPP Configuration, while selecting Ethernet will bring up the WAN IP Configuration page.
The Uplink Configuration page offers the following components: The WAN Interface Protocol radio buttons are used to choose th e
protocol depending on the requirements of the ISP (Internet Service Provider):
PPPoE - turns on the PPP over an Ethernet connection. PPTP – turns on the Point to Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP)
interface used for the connection between Quadro and ADSL modem. A fixed IP address configuration is needed in this case.
Ethernet - turns on the Ethernet connection.
The WAN Interface Bandwidth settings allow the specification of the upstream and do wnstream speeds in kbit/s, helping to assure the quality of IP calls. An IP call looses the voice quality if there is no available bandwidth. When approaching the limits of bandwidth capacity, another IP call will be declined.
The bandwidth provided by the ISP has to be specified in the text fields Upstream Speed and Downstream Speed. The default entry in both fields is 100000, the maximum bandwidth of a 100 MB Ethernet. You may see the required bandwidth in the chapter Needed Bandwidth for IP Calls
The Min Data Rate text field requires the amount of upstream bandwidth that ought to remain for data applications even if voice applications use the entire available upstream bandwidth. The value selected here needs to be smaller than the upstream bandwidth and is measured in kbit/s.

The WAN IP Configuration page is only displayed if Ethernet or PPTP has been selected to be the uplink protocol. It offers the
following components: The Assign automatically via DHCP radio-button selection
switches to automatic retrieval of the WAN IP address from a DHCP server at the ISP/uplink.
Please Note: DHCP referred to here is the one that runs on the
provider’s side and not the Quadro’s personal DHCP server. The Assign Manually radio-button switches to the manual
adjustment of IP settings. This selection requests the following parameters:
IP Address requires the IP address for the Quadro WAN interface. Subnet Mask requires the subnet mask for the Quadro device WAN
interface. Default Gateway requires the IP address of the router where all
packets are to be sent to, for example, to the router of the provider.
The W AN Interface Configuration page may be used to modify the MAC address of the Quadro. This might be necessary if the ISP (Internet Service Provider) requires a specified MAC address, for example, for authentication. This page offers the following components:
MAC Address Assignment manipulation radio-buttons:
Fig. II-9: Internet Configuration Wizard - WAN IP Configuration page
This Device turns to the default MAC address of the Quadro.
User Defined requires user defined MAC Address.
The MTU drop down list allows you to select the maximum packet size on the Ethernet (in bytes). MTU is used to fragment the packets before transmitting them to the network. The MTU preferred value is dependent on the Ethernet connection. The default MTU size is 1500 Bytes for Ethernet and 1400 Bytes for PPPoE.
Fig. II-10: Internet Configuration Wizard - WAN MAC Address Configuration page
Automatic Provisioning
Automatic Provisioning provides the possibility to automatically
configure the WAN network settings of Quadro. This is very useful when the administrator is not actually aware about the Quadro’s network settings. Automatic Provisioning automatically detects the matching network configuration settings, applies them on the Quadro, thus connecting the device to the internet through the available ISP connection.
Please Note: Automatic Provisioning can only be run from the
LAN side of the Quadro, i.e. from the PC connected to the Quadro’s LAN.
After the confirmation, the Automatic Provisioning automatically detects and configures the following settings on the Quadro:
WAN interface type (PPPoE or Ethernet)
WAN IP settings
PPP settings
ISP settings
DHCP settings
DNS settings
NAT Traversal settings

QuadroM 32x/8L/26x/12Li/26xi Manual II: Administrator's Guide Administrator’s Menus
The System Security Settings page includes the following components:
The Security Level table - allo ws selecting the Security Level defining requirements to the IP Lines' password strength and the Security Report granularity. The security levels are as follows:
Low - There are no specific restrictions on the
strength of the saved password. Only the critical warnings on the Call Routing Rules to PSTN and IP­PSTN, disabled Firewall and IDS will be generated in Security Report.
Medium - The minimum strength of the IP Line
passwords should be "good". The Security Report will generate warnings on all unsecured Call Routing rules, IP Line passwords, Firewall level (if it is set to lower than "Medium") and disabled IDS.
High - The minimum strength of the IP Line
passwords should be "strong". The Security Report will generate warnings on the IP Line passwords, disabled IDS, unsecured SIP, and unsecured Routing Rules to SIP, PSTN and IP-PSTN and also regarding the Firewall level if it is set to lower than "High".
The System Security Diagnostics page allows running the security audit and getting the security reports. The Start Security Audit functional button is used for running the security audit. The QuadroM Security Audit is a security reporting system, which generates the warnings regarding the QuadroM's weaknesses relative to the selected Security Level. The warnings may vary depending on the selected global Security Level. The Security Audit will detect the security related configuration issues in Firewall, IDS, IP Line passwords, Call Routing and extension settings.
The output of Security Audit may look as follows:
Start security audit... Checking... Firewall ... done IP Lines ... done Call Routing ... done Extensions ... done Users ... done Settings do not correspond to selected security
level. You can view the complete report by clicking the
'Show the latest security report' link below.

IP Routing Configuration
Routing is used to relay information across the Internet from a source to a destination. Along the way, at least one intermediate node is typically
encountered. Routing is different than bridging. The main difference between bridging and routing is that bridging operates at the OSI Data Link Layer (Level Two Media Access Control Layer) and routing operates at OSI Network Layer (Level Three).
Quadro’s IP Routing se rvice allows you to route IP packets from one destination to another (or to a specified router) through Quadro or a Quadro VPN.
The IP Routing Configur ation page is used to make IP Static, IP Policy and VPN routes for IP packets routing. This page consists of thre e tables. Entries in the tables are color coded according to the state of the route. For example, yellow indicates disabled routes, green indicates successful routes and red indicates routes with an error.
IP Static Routes are used to forward IP packets from the Network, where the Quadro is connected, to the specified destination.
The IP Static Routes table displays all established IP static routes with their parameters: Target State for the state of the route (enabled or disabled), Actual State for the state of the route connection (up, down or erroneous), Route To for the subnet where the incoming packets should be routed to and Via IP Address for the router IP address where incoming packets should be routed through.
Add opens the Add IP Static Route page where a new static route can be established.
Enable/Disable is used to activate and deactivate a selected route(s). At least one route should be selected in order to use these functions, otherwise the following error message will appear: “No record(s) selected.”
Fig. II-35: IP Static Routing table
The Add IP Static Route page offers the following components: Route To requires the IP address and subnet mask for the
destination the IP packet should be forwarded to. Via IP Address requires the IP address of the subsequent router
for IP packet forwarding to the specified destination.
Attention: The rule with the longest subnet (smallest IP range)
will take effect when having two or more IP Static routing rules with the coinciding subnets.

IP Policy Routes allow IP packets forwarding to the specified router depending on the source IP address as well as defining the priority for the current routing rule.
The IP Policy Routes table displays all specified IP policy routes with their parameters: Target State for the state of the route (enabled or disabled), Actual State for the state of the route connection (up, down or erroneous), Priority for the route priority,
Route From is where the subnet, routed packets come from and Via IP Address is where the router IP address incoming packets
should be routed through. Add opens the Add IP Policy Route page to establish a new
policy route. Enable and Disable are used to activate or to deactivate the
selected route(s). Raise Priority and Lower Priority are used to increase or
decrease the priority of the selected policy route(s) by one. At least one route should be selected to use these functions, otherwise the error message “No record(s) selected” will appear.
Fig. II-37: IP Policy Routing table
The Add IP Policy Route page offers the following input options: Priority requires a numeric value (from 1 to 252) to define the
priority of the routing rule. The lower the number, the sooner the routing rule will take effect (higher priority).
From requires the packet source IP address and subnet mask of the specified destination to match with the rule.
Via IP address requires the IP address of the subsequent router for IP packet forwarding.
Fig. II-38: Add IP Policy Route page
The PPTP/ L2TP Routes allow IP packets forwarding through the PPTP and L2TP tunnels of the Quadro. If PPTP/L2TP connections do not exist on Quadro, VPN routes cannot be generated.
The PPTP/L2TP Routes table displays all generated VPN routes with their parameters: Target State for the state of the route (enabled or disabled), Actual State for the state of the route connection (up, down or erroneous), Route To for the subnet where the incoming packets should be routed, Via Tunnel for the VPN tunnel incoming packets should be routed through and Tunnel State for the actual state of the route tunnel (up or down).
The Add button opens the Add VPN Route page where a new VPN route can be generated.
Fig. II-39: VPN Routing table
The Add VPN Route page offers the following components: Route Via contains the available PPTP and L2TP connections on
the Quadro. A connection selected from this list will be used to route the IP packet from the Quadro’s LAN to the peer behind the PPTP/L2TP tunnel.
Route To requires the IP address range of the possible peers behind the PPTP/L2TP tunnel whereto the IP packets should be routed.
Fig. II-40: Add VPN Route page
The Enable and Disable functional buttons are used to activate or to deactivate the selected route(s). At least one route should be selected to use these functions, otherwise the error message “No record(s) selected” will appear.

automatically backed up files via email. The selection enables Email Address text field that requires the email address of the administrating person to receive the automatically backup files.
The Send to Server radio button is used to store the
automatically backup files on a remote server. This selection enables the following fields to be inserted:
The Server Name requires the IP address or the host name of the remote server. The Server Port requires the port number of the remote server. The Path on Server requires the path on the server to store the backup files in. The Send Method manipulation radio buttons allow you to select the remote server type: TFTP or FTP. In case of FTP selection, the
authentication username and the password need to be inserted. In case these fields are left empty, anonymous authentication will be used.
The Backup Interval Selection drop down lists is used to select the frequency and the time when the automatic backup of the Quadro's system configuration and the voice data will take place.
Backup Now button is used to perform a manually immediate backup of the system configuration and the voice data. The Backup & Download all config & voice data link generates a backup file with all configuration settings and user uploaded greeting messages.
It opens a file chooser window for immediate download to the users PC.

The Upload & Restore all config & voice data link opens a page that has a Browse button, (which opens a file chooser to select a backed-up file) and a Configuration to Upload field requiring the file path to upload and to restore it immediately. Pressing Save will restore the selected backup file, and delete all current user defined greetings and replace configuration settings.
The Restore Default Confi guration functional button resets all configuration settings and restores the board’s factory default configuration. By restoring the default configuration you will replace your current configuration, lose all voice mails and reboot the device. You will not be automatically redirected to the GUI start page. After the successful reboot you will need to enter into the management page and login again to access the Quadro’s configuration. A warning message will ask you to confirm your selection before restoring the default configuration.
Please Note: Unlike the factory default settings restore procedure initialized from the Reset button on the Quadro board, this link will keep the
following data:

The Download current configuration in a legi ble format and Upload a legible configuration file links leads you to the Legible Configuration
Management
page where legible configuration can be downloaded and uploaded back after the required edits.
Legible Configuration Management
The Legible Configurati on Management is used to manually manage the configuration on the Quadro. This will allow you to download a piece of configuration from the Quadro in the way of legible file, to make necessary changes in that file and to upload it back to the sam e or different Quadro(s). With this service, some pieces of configuration (like extension settings, NAT settings, etc.) of one Quadro can be used on another Quadro. This also helps to apply the same group of settings to the several instances (for example, to apply the same SIP settings to multiple extensions on the Quadro) on the same or different Quadros avoiding manual configuration of each of those instances (i.e. extension) from the web management on each of the Quadros. The Quadro reseller, distributor, ISP or carrier usually uses this service.
The Download current configuration in a legible format link refers to the Configuration Summary page where a partial or complete configuration can be defined and downloaded or viewed.
The Configurati on Summary page is used to generate a piece of legible configuration and to download it to a PC or to view it directly in the browser. This page consists of the following components:
The manipulation radio buttons are used to select between particular CGI or a named group of CGIs for which the legible configuration file will be generated.
The Specific CGI selection allows you to choose a certain CGI from the list of Quadro’s Web management pages for which the legible
configuration can be manually managed. For example, selecting "RTP Settings" will generate a legible configuration file with parameters present on the RTP Settings page.
The Named Group of CGIs selection allows you to choose among the four predefined groups: Internet Connection Settings, LAN
Configuration Settings, Telephony General Settings and Extension Settings. Each of these groups refer to all CGIs characterized by the selected criteria, e.g. Internet Connection Settings group contains all parameters on the CGIs related to the networking and WAN configuration.
The Extension drop down list allows you to limit the settings in the generated legible configuration file to one specific extension. For example, each of the extensions on the Quadro have own SIP settings or Codecs. To download the settings for a particular extension only, you need to choose the corresponding extension from the list. The drop down may also have a blank selection. In that case the legible configuration file will contain the parameter of all available extensions on the Quadro (if the selected parameter applies to the extension and not to the overall system, like RTP settings).
The Start generate a legible configuration file button start parsing the configuration structure of the device for the defined parameters. The progress will be displayed in the area below.

The Cancel generation process button appears when the configuration generation procedure starts and it is used to stop it.
The Download generated configuration button becomes available when the legible configuration generation is finished. It is used to download the generated file to the PC in a plain text format. Necessary changes can be made in the downloaded configuration file and then uploaded back to the system.
Attention: Make sure the changes you have done in the
downloaded legible configuration file are valid and will not corrupt the system when being uploaded back to device.
The View generated configuration button becomes available when the legible configuration generation is finished. It is used to view the generated file directly in the browser.
The Restart generation! button becomes available when the legible configuration generation is finished. It is used to cancel the generated configuration file and to start over.
Fig. II-44: Configuration Summary Preview page
The Upload Legible Configuration page is used to upload a configuration file in a text forma t. The Browse button in the opened page is used to browse certain legible configuration file to be uploaded and updated into the system. The configuration files to be uploaded should be in the *.txt format, otherwise a system error occurs. Configuration file upload progress will be displayed in the area below. During legible configuration file upload, Quadro's functionality failures may occur.
Events
The Events page has two tables. All system events that have occurred will be displayed in one table and event settings will be displayed in the other. The System Events page may be accessed through the Events
link from the main menu. It lists information about system events that have occurred on Quadro. When a new event takes place, a record is added to the System Event table. For failure events (priority 2 and 3, see below), the warning “Please check your pending events!” will appear at the bottom of all management pages.
The system events and the warning message are visible only for the administrator. The warning link, (which leads directly to the System Events page) will disappear from the management pages if the administrator has marked all new events as “read”.

QuadroM 32x/8L/26x/12Li/26xi Manual II: Administrator's Guide Administrator’s Menus
The System Events table is the list of new and read system events. System events have corresponding coloring depending on the nature of the event: success (priority 1, color green), low importance failure (priority 2, color yellow), critical failure (priority 3, color red).
The table shows the Status of the event (new or read) as well as the name of the application the event refers to, event description, and the date when the event was received. For example, if the event was caused by the IDS service, the Check IDS link appears in the reference row that will lead to the IDS Log
page, or if the event has occurred due to incorrect mail sending or SIP registration, the corresponding links will be seen in the Reference column of the table. The administrator can view the detailed log for each event that has occurred.
The System Events page offers the following components
:
Current System Time displays the local date and time on Quadro.
Mark all as read marks newly occurred events as “read”. Reset LED switches off the flashing LED (if applicable) on the
board. An LED notification may appear (depending on the notification type given) in the page Events
page when a new
event occurs.

Numerous circumstances may cause a certain application on Quadro to flag an event.
The Event Settings pag e lists all possible events on the Quadro and allows controlling notification (action) when an event takes place.
Each entry in the events’ table has a checkbox assigned to each row. By selecting the corresponding checkboxes, operations such as Edit may be done for one or more events.
Edit opens the Edit Event Settings page to modify the event action.
The Edit Event Settings page offers the following input options: Application displays the application the event refers to. Multiple
is shown here if more than one event has been selected for the action assignment.
Name displays the name of the event. Multiple is shown here if more than one event has been selected for the action assignment.
Description displays additional information about the event. Multiple is shown here if more than one event has been selected
for the action assignment. Action offers radio buttons to choose one of the actions to notify
the Quadro administrator when an event(s) takes place. The following actions can be available:
Fig. II-47: Event Configuration Settings page
Fig. II-48: Edit Event Settings page
Display Notification - A notification link will be displayed on the bottom of all pages and a record is added into the Events table. The
notification is executed as a link “Please Check your pending events!”. The link leads to the System Events page. This action also will take place if Flash LED or Send Mail has been selected, even if not specifically selected.
Flash LED - The second LED (yellow) will blink every second and a notification will be displayed on the bottom of all pages. For some events
the LED will start flashing after a delay.
Send Mail – an e-mail notification about the new event on the Quadro will be sent to the e-mail address specified in the Mail Settings page.
Send SNMP Trap – an SNMP notification will be sent to the traphost(s) listed in the SNMP Trap Settings table (see SNMP Settings).
Send SMS – an SMS notification about the new event on the Quadro will be sent to the mobile phone specified in the SMS Settings page.

Actions that are not allowed for the selected event (like mail notification if the PPP link is down or the mail server has been configured improperly) are hidden. For multiple events editing, actions that are not appropriate for least one of the selected events will also be hidden.
Please Note:
In case of an IDS (Intrusion Detection System) intrusion alert, onl y the first possible intrusion in each 10 minute period will initiate an
event. This helps to avoid flooding the System Events table, and flooding the user with various intrusion alerts that result from each possible Denial of Service attack. When these events are displayed in the System Events table, the user can receive detailed information about the intrusions through a link to the IDS log list.
If Quadro cannot receive an IP address from the DHCP or PPP servers, or cannot register an extension on the SIP or Routing servers, or cannot reach an NTP server, it raises only one event for the entire period the action has failed, but will continue to try. When the required action is successful Quadro raises an appropriate message.
To Assign an Action to the Event
1. Select the checkbox of one or more events to assign an action to them.
2. Press the Edit button. The Edit Event Settings page appears.
3. Select an action type from the Action radio buttons to notify the administrator about the event.
4. Press the Save button to submit the changes or use Back to abort the selected action.
Time/Date Settings
The Time and Date Settings page provides information about the current system time and date. The settings may be updated through the international time and date servers.
Time is used to set the local time (hour, minute). Date is used to set the date (month, day, year). Enable Simple Network Time Protocol Server enables the SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) server on Qua dro, thus Quadro becomes the
timeserver for its LAN. Enable Simple Network Time Protocol Client enables the
SNTP client on the Quadro, thus Quadro becomes a client to an external timeserver. A checkbox disables Date and Time drop down lists and enables the following parameters:
The SNTP Servers table lists all defined NTP Servers. The Add functional button opens an Add NTP Server page
where a new NTP server can be defined. This page offers the NTP Server radio buttons that are used to choose between a manual and a predefined NTP server.
Manual requires the NTP server’s FQDN (Full Qualified Domain Name) or its IP address.
Predefined is used to select the NTP server’s host address from the drop down list, where the most common NTP servers are listed.
The Move Up and Move Down functional buttons are used to sort NTP servers in the order they need to be accessed. If the NTP server in the first position of the SNTP Servers table does not answer, NTP server in the next position will try to be reached.
Please Note: You can add another NTP server to the list if the
defined NTP servers are not functional (for example, Quadro's date/time is not being updated automatically).
Polling Interval indicates the time interval for the periodical synchronization between the timeserver and Quadro. It counts in hours.
Attention: Time and Date Settings will be reset if Quadro has lost power.

Mail Settings
The System Mail Settings page allows you to send warnings automatically about the board status or problems to the administrator. System events that require email notification are selected on the Events message transmission to the extension user’s mailing account.
Quadro may automatically generate emails to the administrator:
If events specified in the Events
list occur,
If voice mails are set from the Voice Mail Settings to be sent as e-mail.
