Application—Edge intelligence of enterprise communication
Enterprises are excited about voice over IP and convergence for the following reasons:
Bypassing the PSTN. Using Internet telephony service providers (ITSPs) instead of incumbent carriers dra-
matically reduces telephony costs
IP PBXs, with their full suite of features and ease of integration into existing IT environments are
very appealing
Convergence lowers technology ownership costs and enables enterprises to deploy new
integrated applications
However, there are several concerns about migrating the whole telephony infrastructure to VoIP:
Loss of voice quality
Unknown reliability
Lack of experience/expertise in voice over IP
Patton’s SmartNode series of VoIP gateways address these concerns enabling enterprises to safely migrate to VoIP. SmartNodes enable system administrators to gradually introduce VoIP, using it as the edge communica­tion device for all worlds, connecting PSTN, legacy PBX, ITSPs and an IP PBX.

Introduction 20
SmartNode 4630 User Manual 2 • Applications overview
How it works:
1. Connect the SmartNode to the PSTN and legacy PBX, and configure the call router to pass all calls from
the PBX to the PSTN and vice versa. This first step will not affect any uses in the enterprise
2. Choose your ITSPs, and configure as many on the SmartNode as you need. Use the intelligent call router
in the SmartNode to decide which call is forwarded to which ITSP, and which calls should go to the PSTN. This may be based upon least-cost routing criteria, or for example, on calling party number. The latter is ideal if you want to test calls to an ITSP before enabling it for all users within the enterprise.
3. Voice over IP can be switched off instantly on one single box (the SmartNode) to revert the system back to
as it was before.
4. Build up an IP PBX system that uses the SmartNode as PSTN gateway. For all calls from this IP PBX, you
can direct them to the PSTN or to ITSPs. Numbering plan adaptations are handled through regular expression matching by the SmartNode. No need to change anything on the PBXs.
5. Once the IP PBX is ready, you can choose on incoming calls from the PSTN, for each extension whether
this extension is to be directed to the IP PBX or on the legacy PBX.
Application—Multi-service ISDN Internet telephony IAD
The SmartNode 4630 Series can be used to make and receive calls to and from the public ISDN network and Internet Telephony services on any ISDN Terminal (Phone or PBX) (see figure 5). Using individually config­urable routing tables, an outbound call can be directed to the local PSTN connection or to an Internet tele­phony service provider (ISTP). Inbound calls from the Internet and the PSTN can ring the same phone.

LAN (ETH 0/1)
The SmartNode comes with a built-in DHCP server to simplify configuration. Therefore, to automatically configure the PC for IP connectivity to the SmartNode, the laptop PC must be configured for DHCP. The SmartNode will provide the PC with an IP address. You can check the connection to the SmartNode by exe­cuting the ping command from the PC command window as follows:
ping 192.168.1.1
Introduction 28
SmartNode 4630 User Manual 4 • Initial configuration

Configuring the desired IP address

Factory-default IP settings

The factory default configuration for the Ethernet interface IP addresses and network masks are listed in table 5. Both Ethernet interfaces are activated upon power-up. LAN interface ETH 0/1 (LAN) provides a default DHCP server, the WAN interface uses DHCP client to automatically assign the IP address and network mask.
Table 5. Factory default IP address and network mask configuration
IP Address Network Mask
WAN interface Ethernet 0 (ETH 0/0) DHCP DHCP LAN interface Ethernet 1 (ETH 0/1) 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 DHCP address range 192.168.1.10–192.168.1.19 255.255.255.0
If these addresses match with those of your network, go to section “Connecting the SmartNode to the net-
work” on page 30. Otherwise, refer to the following sections to change the addresses and network masks.

Login

To access the SmartNode, start the Telnet application. Type the default IP address for the router into the address field: 192.168.1.1. Accessing your SmartNode via a Telnet session displays the login screen. Type the factory default login: administrator and leave the password empty. Press the Enter key after the password prompt.
login:administrator password: <Enter>
192.168.1.1>
After you have successfully logged in you are in the operator execution mode, indicated by > as command line prompt. With the commands enable and configure you enter the configuration mode.
192.168.1.1>enable
192.168.1.1#configure
192.168.1.1(cfg)#

Changing the WAN IP address

Select the context IP mode to configure an IP interface.

192.168.1.1(ctx-ip)[router]#
Configuring the desired IP address 29
SmartNode 4630 User Manual 4 • Initial configuration
Now you can set your IP address and network mask for the interface ETH 0/0 (WAN). Within this example a network 172.16.1.0/24 address is assumed. The IP address in this example is set to 172.16.1.99 (you should set this the IP address given to you by your network provider).
192.168.1.1(ctx-ip)[router]#interface eth0
192.168.1.1(if-ip)[eth0]#ipaddress 172.16.1.99 255.255.255.0 2002-10-29T00:09:40 : LOGINFO : Link down on interface eth0. 2002-10-29T00:09:40 : LOGINFO : Link up on interface eth0.
172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#
Copy this modified configuration to your new start-up configuration. This will store your changes in non-vol­atile memory. Upon the next start-up the system will initialize itself using the modified configuration.
172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#copy running-config startup-config
172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#
The SmartNode can now be connected to your network.

Connecting the SmartNode to the network

In general, the SmartNode will connect to the network via the WAN (ETH 0/0) port. This enables the Smart­Node to offer routing services to the PC hosts on LAN (ETH 0/1) port. The SmartNode 4630 Series is equipped with Auto-MDX Ethernet ports, so you can use straight-through or crossover cables for host or hub/ switch connections (see figure 8).

You can check the connection with the ping command from the SmartNode to another host on the network.
172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#ping <IP Address of the host>
Note
If the WAN address is not set to DHCP, to ping a device outside your local LAN you must first configure the default gateway. (For information on con­figuring the default gateway, refer to section “Set IP addresses” in Appendix C, “Command Summary” of the SmartNode Series SmartWare Software Con- figuration Guide.)

Loading the configuration (optional)

Patton provides a collection of configuration templates on the support page at www.patton.com/smart­node—one of which may be similar enough to your application that you can use it to speed up configuring the
SmartNode. Simply download the configuration note that matches your application to your PC. Adapt the configuration as described in the configuration note to your network (remember to modify the IP address) and copy the modified configuration to a TFTP server. The SmartNode can now load its configuration from this server.
Note
In this example we assume the TFTP server on the host with the IP address 172.16.1.11 and the configuration named SN.cfg in the root directory of the TFTP server.
If your application is unique and not covered by any of Patton’s configura­tion templates, you can manually configure the SmartNode instead of load­ing a configuration file template. In that case, refer to the SmartNode Series SmartWare Software Configuration Guide for information on configuring the SmartNode device.

172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#
After the SmartNode has been rebooted the new startup configuration will be activated.
When you issue the reload command, the SmartNode will ask if you want to copy the running configuration to the startup con­figuration. Since you just downloaded a configuration file to the

Note
Pins not listed are not used.
All pins between the port BRI 0/0 and the port BRI 0/1 are connected during power failure. Fallback relay operation:
When the unit is not powered, the fallback relay connects pins 3, 4, 5, and 6 of the net and the user ports (fallback) together. This enables you to place calls to the PSTN even if the unit is powered down.
Line power applied to the Line port is fed through to the Phone port at all times and independent of the fallback relay’s status.
Note
On each ISDN BRI port in TE mode, it is possible to switch on ISDN line power per software. The total amount of power is 4W. If a ISDN BRI port is switched to NT mode, the ISDN line power is turned off.

ISDN BRI 0/1 .. 0/3 (TE/Usr or NT/Net)

The BRI Line port uses an 8-pin RJ-45 connector (the pinout is shown in table 7).
