1. Introduction

Micronet SP5008A / SP5018A / SP5058A are high-capacity SIP Gateway Series that provides 8 FXS / 4 FXS + 4 FXO / 8 FXO ports, and suit to build an IP-based communication platform with other VoIP devices. They meet enterprise’s requirement for functionality (VoIP) upgrade and larger scale implementation by interoperating with legacy PABX and IP PBX/Soft-switch.

To connect with legacy PABX, SP5018A supports PABX Mode for PSTN backup. When network or power fails, PSTN lines (FXO) bypass to FXS ports and users still can make/receive calls via PSTN lines.

In addition, SP5008A includes some wonderful PABX features for small business. They help operate users on various VoIP applications, such as extension calling among 8 FXS ports, inbound/outbound calls via SIP trunk, DID (direct line), DOD, prefix routing, operator attendant, etc. Users can easily benefit from the ease-to-use device.

2. Startup

2.1 Login into the System

First of all, connect your computer to MICRONET SP5008A / SP5018A / SP5058A’s LAN port by using DHCP. The IP address assign to your computer should be 192.168.123.x by default. Once you can get the IP address from MICRONET SP5008A / SP5018A / SP5058A, you can start the configuration as below.

Step 1. Connect LAN port to your managing PC. Or, connect the gateway with PC by hub/switch.

Step 2. Launch your web browser with http://192.168.123.123/. Please configure

IP address of PC with 192.168.123.x. Or set up your PC in DHCP mode to get IP address automatically.

Step 3. The Password screen now appears. Type “root” in the user name field, and your password (none by default) in the password field.

Step 4. You will enter the main page of the web configuration interface after you keyed in the username and password correctly (see figure below).

2.2 Network Configuration

By default, the gateway is in NAT mode (router mode) and can share Internet access with PCs. Go to [ Network Configuration / WAN Setting ], and configure WAN setting according to actual condition. In default IP type of DHCP client, it requests necessary IP information from your ISP automatically.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note:

1.Different ISPs require different methods of connecting to the Internet. Please consult your ISP to select right IP type (Fixed IP, PPPoE) of WAN.

2.You can retrieve the IP address of the WAN port by keying #126# on the phone set that is connected to the FXS port of the gateway. You will hear an IVR announcing the current IP address of the WAN port.

2.3 General configuration

To make VoIP calls, you will need a SIP account provided by the SIP Proxy you are registered with. To configure the relevant SIP settings, please refer to the instructions explained below.

2.3.1 PABX Mode (SP5018A only)

This quick setting is used for MICRONET SP5018A to operate in PABX connection mode between PSTN and traditional PABX. Enable PABX mode for ISP/ITSP scenario that forbids SIP call to/from PSTN via the gateway (SP5018A). The call scenario will be working as below:

1.For FXO incoming call, it will route to corresponding FXS directly (1 by 1)

2.For FXS outgoing call, it will route to VOIP except those prefix set in FXO dialing Prefix.

3.For VOIP incoming call, it will route to FXS based on the called number

4.When VOIP call is failed to be called out such as register fail or network issue, the call will be route to FXO as backup.

5.When MICRONET SP5008A / SP5018A / SP5058A is malfunction or power failure, the all call will be directly bypassed to FXO.

PABX Connection	To enable PABX behavior or not.
SIP Setting	Please refer to 3.3.2.1
Representative Number Only	It is used (Yes) when you only have 1 SIP account and
	would like to be shared for all FXS lines. Please refer to

16

	3.3.2.1
Primary FXS SIP settings	When you have multiple SIP accounts for each FXS line,
	please set Representative Number Only to No. Then refer
	to 3.3.2.1 for the detail
FXO Dialing Prefix	When the prefix is set here, the call will be route to FXO
	instead of VOIP.

17

2.3.2 SIP Setting

Primary proxy/P2P IP	Specify the data of primary proxy : Enable/Disable, IP
	address, Port#, Domain Name, Expire time and MWI TTL.
	The P2P mode will be explained in paragraph Appendix A
Secondary proxy	Specify the data of secondary proxy: Enable/Disable, IP
	address, Port#, Domain Name, Expire time and MWI TTL.

Outbound proxy	Specify the data of Outbound proxy: Enable/Disable, IP
	address and Port#.
Secondary Outbound proxy	Specify the data of Outbound proxy for secondary proxy:
	Enable/Disable, IP address and Port#.
Representative Number	The representative number is working as a SIP trunk for the
	selected FXS line (for all FXS or FXO/FXS combination
	model) or FXO line (for all FXO model). When an incoming
	call to the representative number, the selected FXS or FXO
	port will be hunted.
Enable	Enable the Line, the default setting is “Enable” and it will

18

	Register or Unregister to SIP Proxy
Account	Input the SIP Proxy registration account ID.
Number	Input the phone number.
Password	Input the password of IP Proxy registration account ID.
Display name	Specify the Display name of the phone number

	z Simultaneous(ring all)
Ring Time (s) for Serial ring	Specify the Ring Time for Serial ring
Status	Displays the registration status, whether it is registered or not.
Priority	Select the group of representative number, and specify the
	priority.
	Only the checked line will become the member of the
	representative number.
