1.1. Overview of the Opera 4 IP
The Opera 4 IP is a next generation IP voice switch for SOHO and small business applications. The full IP internal architecture of the system allows seamless connection to VoIP networks using IP system phones and traditional analogue phones. The Opera 4 IP, depending on its configuration may also connect to either the legacy ISDN or PSTN public networks making it the ideal migration platform to the next generation network for the home-based business or small business. It connects four analogue telephones and up to 16 IP system phones to the public VoIP or PSTN networks.
Users make or receive calls via a SIP server in the public network, or via the PSTN/ISDN network using a simple analogue phone or an Operafone IP Executive phone or an Operafone IP Professional phone.
The Operafone IP Executive is an advanced multi function system phone with 16 programmable keys, 6 fixed keys, loudspeaker and a blue backlit 4-line display. The Operafone IP Professional is an advanced multi function system phone with 6 fixed keys, loudspeaker and a blue backlit 4-line display. Up to sixteen of these phones may be connected locally to the Opera 4 IP system or remotely over broadband Internet. Remote IP phones have full system functionality. The system phones have a two-port Ethernet hub, which allows a single cable to the desktop for both the phone and the PC.
The Opera 4 IP has a full range of pbx features including voicemail, automated attendant, least cost routing, speed dials, address books and call lists. Features such as advanced Multi-Layer Auto-Attendant, networking of multiple systems on different sites require the installation of a license. Licenses can also be installed to expand the number of users on the system, the number of trunks or the number of voicemail boxes or to network multiple systems.

IIss tthhiiss ookk ffoorr yyoouu??
The LEDs flash during the initiation sequence and finally just the power LED flashes.
STEP 1. Power the Opera system up
To hear the systems current IP address or Subnet mask.
1. Plug an analogue phone into one of the analogue ports
2. Dial **01# for the IP address or **02# for the Subnet mask. 3. The system will call out the current setting.
To change the systems current IP address or Subnet mask.
1. Dial **01*DDD*DDD*DDD*DDD# for the IP address or **02*DDD*DDD*DDD*DDD# for the Subnet mask,
where DDD represents the elements
of the IP address or subnet mask, i.e. dial **01*192*168*0*100# to set the IP address to
192.168.0.100 or **02*255*255*255*254# to set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.254
Change the IP address of the system
The system has
default Gateway IP
address
192.168.1.254.
Is this ok for you?
What you need to know
before you start:
1. The IP address range of the LAN.
2. The IP address of the Router on the LAN.
3. Does you Router Support
UPnP and is it enabled?
Yes
Yes
Page 11
Is
Universal
Plug n Play
enabled on your
Router?
Browse to the Router’s Programming web page and program port forwarding, so that the following packets are forwarded to the IP address of the system. TCP packets arriving on port (5075) UDP packets arriving on ports (50000-50031) TCP packets arriving on port (7000) forwarded to port (80).
Manually Forward VoIP ports on the Router to the
internal IP address of the system
Just take the IP system phone home and connect it to you home LAN. The IP system phone will request an IP address from the DHCP server in your router. (Note: If DHCP is not enabled in the router, you will need to manually set the local IP address in the
Phone, see phone installation manual for this). Once it has a Local
IP address, it will then connect back to the system over the Internet.
STEP 3. If you wish to use your IP system phone at a remote
location
The IP system phones request an IP address f
rom the DHCP
server in the router. (Note: If DHCP is not enabled in the router, you need to manually set the local IP address in each Phone; see phone installation guide for this). The phone then Auto-discovers the advantage system and is assigned an IP registration name and an IP registration PIN along with the WAN (public) IP address of the router.
That’s it. Your IP system phone should now be connected to the Opera system and be able to make and
receive calls
STEP 2. Connect the IP system phones to the LAN
Page 12
2.7. Program the IP address of the system into the
range of the LAN
The default IP address of the Opera 4 IP is 192.168.1.250.
The IP address of the system must be in the range of the LAN to which it’s connected. The system does not have either a DHCP client nor a DHCP server, to minimise potential for conflicts.
If for example the LAN range is VVV.XXX.YYY.ZZZ, the first three elements of the IP address of the system must be altered to VVV.XXX.YYY and the last element must be taken from the range 1-255, but excluding those numbers at which devices are already connected.
The IP address of the Opera20 IP can be changed in a number of ways.
2.5.1. Change the IP address of the system using an analogue phone
Connect an analogue phone to one of the analogue ports of the Opera 4 IP.
At internal dial tone, dial **01# and the Opera 4 IP system will announce its internal IP address.
Enter new IP Address into the Opera 4 IP:
Internal Dial

2.5.2. Change the IP address of the system using a PC
Connect a PC directly to the LAN port of the system using an Ethernet cable.
Configure the IP address of the PC in the same address range as the Opera 4 IP
system, default address 192.168.1.250. The first three elements of the IP address of the PC must be 192.168.1 and the last element must be taken from the range 1-255, but excluding 250.
Open a browser on the PC and point it at the the Opera 4 IP system default address
192.168.1.250.
Login to the system with the username ‘admin’and the password ‘1000’. Click on the link ‘IP Adresses’ in the section ‘IP settings’, change the IP address of the
system and press ‘Save’ .
Page 14
IP Connection Testing
To check that the IP configuration is correct and both the PC and the Opera 4 IP are on the same network -
At the PC, from Windows -
Go to <Start>
Select <Run>
A window prompting the user to open a program will appear -
Type "command" (or “cmd” in some cases for Windows 2000) in the white field. The MS-DOS window opens with the following prompt - C:\_
Type "ipconfig" at the cursor.
The details of the IP configuration of the PC will appear on the window - e.g.
Windows IP Configuration -
IP Address ......................... 192.168.1.251
Subnet Mask .................…… 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway ................ 192.168.1.254
Make sure that the configuration that appears on your PC is correct.
In order to test the IP connection between the PC and the Opera 4 IP, type "ping", followed by the IP address of the Opera 4 IP. To test for the example shown above, type -
Ping 192.168.1.250
The PC will ping the system with 32 bytes of data and report the results. If the IP connection is correct, the results should state -
Packets: Sent=4, Received=4, Lost=0 (0% Lost).
If the IP connection is incorrect, check again that the system and the PC are in the same IP address range and that the cabling connections are correct.

Manual Programming of the SIP trunk lines
The VoIP trunk lines of the Opera 4 IP may be configured automatically by the network operator. However, should you need to programme the trunks manually, you can do so by clicking the link ‘SIP Accounts’ under the heading SIP Trunks. The following page will be displayed:
This page is used to display the status and parameters of the SIP external lines, which connect to the Voice over IP public network. Each telephone number corresponds to an account on the public VoIP network. Each account has a user name and password. These details are provided by the operator of the network.
The parameters of the SIP accounts are displayed here. They can be configured by pressing the ‘edit’ button. The following parameters are displayed.
NAME: The Opera 4 IP may allocate a name to each SIP account.
USERNAME: This is the username defined by the network operator for this SIP account.
PROVIDER: This is location of the SIP server as defined by the network operator. Typically it is in the format sip.operator.com.
TRUNK ACCESS: This is the line access code for this trunk. The user on an outgoing call may select this particular trunk by dialling the line access code prior to dialling the external number.
STATUS: Indicates whether the SIP account is operational or not.
Page 19
Click on the ‘Edit’ button on the first line of this table. The following page will be displayed:
This page is used to configure the SIP external lines that connect to the Voice over IP Operator network. Each SIP trunk requires an account on the Operator network. The network operator provides the details of this account.
The parameters of the SIP trunk are altered or edited on this page. The following parameters may be configured:
Basic Settings
NAME: The Opera 4 IP system can allocate a name to each SIP trunk line.
TRUNK ACCESS: This is the line access code for the trunk. The user, on an outgoing call, may select a particular trunk by dialling the trunk access code prior to dialling the external number.
ENABLED: The line may be enabled or disabled here.
STATUS: Indicates whether the SIP trunk is operational or not.
Provider Settings
Page 20
SIP SERVER: The location of the SIP server in the Operator’s network. The Operator provides this information. Typically it will be in the format sip.operator.com.
SIP SERVER PORT: This is the PORT number for the SIP protocol. By default it is 5060. If the operator uses a different port number it should be entered here.
REGISTRATION REQUIRED: Is registration required by the network operator or not?
FORCED PROXY IP: The actual SIP server IP address must be entered here if it's different from the IP address associated with the SIP server URL. The SIP operator may insist that all SIP messages are relayed to the forced proxy IP address entered here; the SIP server URL is included in the SIP messages from the system.
REGINTERVAL: The SIP protocol allows for periodic registration messages to be sent to the SIP server in order to keep it updated it on the status of the SIP client. The parameter RegInterval allows the system administrator to program the length of the registration interval in seconds.
STUN SERVER: Some operators require the use of a STUN server (Simple Traversal of UDP through NATS). If the operator provides the address of a STUN server with the account details, it should be entered here.
Subscriber Settings
USERNAME: This is the username provided by the network operator for the SIP account.
PASSWORD: This is the password provided by the network operator for the SIP account.
AuthID: Authorisation ID, if required, is provided by the network operator.
EXTERNAL NUMBER: This is the public telephone number associated with this SIP account. It is provided by the network operator and should be entered here. It is then added automatically to the list of external telephone numbers of the system.
Audio Settings
Codec priority 1,2,3: These fields are used to set the preferred audio codecs.
DTMF Method: This parameter allows the system administrator to select the method of transmitting DTMF digits across the VoIP network.
Dialling Settings
DIAL PLAN: During dialling on outgoing calls, the digits are stored until the complete number has been dialled and then the complete number is transmitted en bloc to the VoIP network. A period of three seconds without dialling is interpreted by the system as the end of dialling. This means that the system must delay transmitting the number for a period of 3 seconds after the end of the last digit. The Dial Plan allows the system administrator to define number types that can be dialled immediately without waiting for the 3-second period to elapse.
For example, the entry
Page 21
[2-8]XXXXXX=,08[567]XXXXXXX=,999=,911=
will be interpreted by the system as follows:
Any number with first digit 2,3,4,5,6,7 or 8 followed by six digits may be dialled immediately and
Any number beginning with 08 and whose third digit is 5,6 or 7 followed by seven digits may be dialled immediately and
The number 999 may be dialled immediately and
The number 911 may be dialled immediately.
DIAL TIMEOUT: This is a pre-defined period without dialling which is interpreted as the end of dialling. The default is 3 seconds and this may be changed here by specifying an alternative value.
Click [SAVE] to accept new settings.
The double arrows << and >> at the bottom of the page may be used to jump forward or back to the next SIP account.
Click [BACK] to return to the SIP Accounts menu.
