SN4940 model codes

The SmartNode 4940 series consists of several models. They differ in the number of PRI ports and voice chan­nels supported. All models come equipped with one 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet port. The SmartNode 4940 PRI ports and voice channels are listed in table 2.
Table 2. SmartNode 4940 PRI Ports and Voice Channels
Model PRI Ports Voice Channels

SN4941 model codes

The high precision SmartNode 4941 models have a Stratum III clock. The Stratum III clock provides a clock source of < 5 ppm. For PBXs that used to rely on PSTN for accurate clock source, the SmartNode 4941 can provide a PSTN-equivalent high precision clock. The popular DECT PBX needs such high precision clocks.
Note
For high precision clock models, replace SN4940 with SN4941 in the model code.

Introduction

Patton’s SmartNode Enterprise VoIP Media Gateways deliver the features you need for advanced multiservice voice and data network applications. They combine high quality voice-over-IP with powerful quality of service routing functions to build professional and reliable VoIP and data networks. This chapter describes typical applications for which this SmartNode is uniquely suited.
Note
Detailed configuration information for the applications can be found on the CD-ROM that was included with your SmartNode device or online from the Patton webserver at www.patton.com.
Application—Convert Legacy PBX to VoIP
The SmartNode 4940 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 4). 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.
Figure 4. Internet telephony IAD application
For an installation where there are existing routers and access modems, the SN4940 is a cost-effective solution to bring SIP-trunking service to a traditional PBX. .

Planning the installation

Before installing the gateway router device, the following tasks should be completed:
Create a network diagram (see section “Network information” on page 23)
Gather IP related information (see section “IP related information” on page 23 for more information)
Install the hardware and software needed to configure the SmartNode. (See section “Software tools” on
page 24)
Verify power source reliability (see section “Power source” on page 26).
After you have finished preparing for gateway router installation, go to section “Installing the gateway” on page 24 to install the device.

Site log

Patton recommends that you maintain a site log to record all actions relevant to the system, if you do not already keep such a log. Site log entries should include information such as listed in table 5.
Table 5. Sample site log entries
Entry Description

Network information

Network connection considerations that you should take into account for planning are provided for several types of network interfaces are described in the following sections.

Network Diagram

Draw a network overview diagram that displays all neighboring IP nodes, connected elements and telephony components.

IP related information

Before you can set up the basic IP connectivity for your SmartNode 4940 you should have the following infor­mation:
IP addresses used for Ethernet port
Subnet mask used for Ethernet port
Planning the installation 23
SmartNode 4940 Getting Started Guide 3 • SmartNode installation
IP addresses of central H.323 gatekeeper (if used)
IP addresses and/or URL of SIP servers or Internet telephony services (if used)
Login and password for SIP or H.323 based telephony services
IP addresses of central TFTP server used for configuration upload and download (optional)

Software tools

You will need a PC (or equivalent) with Windows Telnet or a program such as Tera Term Pro Web (included on the SmartNode CD-ROM) to configure the software on your SmartNode router.

AC Power Mains

If you suspect that your AC power is not reliable, for example if room lights flicker often or there is machinery with large motors nearby, have a qualified professional test the power. Patton recommends that you include an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) in the installation to ensure that VoIP service is not impaired if the power fails. Refer to “Connecting the power supply” on page 26.

Location and mounting requirements

The SmartNode router is intended to be placed on a desktop or similar sturdy, flat surface that offers easy access to the cables. Allow sufficient space at the rear of the chassis for cable connections. Additionally, you should consider the need to access the unit for future upgrades and maintenance.
Note
Under the rack mount option, the chassis can be equipped with rack mount ears that allow for use in a 19” rack.

Installing the gateway

SmartNode hardware installation consists of the following:
Placing the device at the desired installation location (see section “Placing the SmartNode” on page 24)
Connecting the interface and power cables (see section “Installing cables”)
When you finish installing the SmartNode, go to chapter 4, “Initial configuration” on page 27.

Placing the SmartNode

Place the unit on a desktop or similar sturdy, flat surface that offers easy access to the cables. The unit should be installed in a dry environment with sufficient space to allow air circulation for cooling.
Note

Installing cables

For proper ventilation, leave at least 2 inches (5 cm) to the left, right, front, and rear of the unit.
Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.

3. Connect the power mains cable (see section “Connecting the power supply” on page 26)
Connecting the PRI
The SmartNode comes with one or four PRI ports. These ports are usually connected to a PBX or switch (local exchange (LE) ). Each PRI T1/E1 port is a RJ-48C receptacle. In most cases, a straight-through RJ-45 can be used to connect the PRI. Each port can be configured as NT (clock master) or TE (clock slave).
For details on the PRI port pin-out and ISDN cables, refer to Appendix C, “Cabling” on page 43 and Appen­dix D, “port pin-outs” on page 47.
Connecting the 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet cable
The SmartNode 4940 has automatic MDX (auto-crossover) detection and configuration on the Ethernet port. The port can be connected to a host or hub/switch with a straight-through or cross-over wired cable. Connect the LAN network to ETH 0/0.
Note
The SmartNode Ethernet port operates in Full Duplex mode only. Do not connect to Half Duplex ports. For best results, use auto-negotiation. Auto negotiation is mandatory when using 1000BaseT (Gigabit) Ethernet.
For details on the Ethernet port pinout and cables, refer to Appendix C, “Cabling” on page 47 and Appendix

Introduction

This chapter leads you through the basic steps to set up a new SmartNode and to download a configuration. Setting up a new SmartNode consists of the following main steps:
Note
If you haven’t already installed the SmartNode, refer to chapter 3,
“SmartNode installation” on page 22.
Configuring the desired IP address
Connecting the SmartNode to the network
Loading the configuration (optional)
Note
The SmartNode CD-ROM contains a collection of third party software tools (including TFTP servers and Telnet utilities) to help you configure, operate and monitor the SmartNode device.

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 6. The Ethernet 0/0 port uses the DHCP client to automatically assign the IP address and network mask.
Table 6. Factory default IP address and network mask configuration
IP Address Network Mask
Ethernet 0 (ETH 0/0) DHCP DHCP

Connecting the SmartNode to the network

The SmartNode 4940 Series is equipped with an Auto-MDX Ethernet port, so you can use straight-through or crossover cables for host or hub/switch connections (see figure 6).

Loading the configuration (optional)

Patton provides a collection of configuration templates on the CD-ROM that came with the SmartNode device—and also on the support page at www.patton.com/voip—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
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.
172.16.1.99(if-ip)[WAN]#copy tftp://172.16.1.11/SN.cfg startup-config Download...100%
172.16.1.99(if-ip)[WAN]#
Patton regularly adds new configuration templates to the collection at www.patton.com/voip, so if you do not see your application on the CD- ROM, it may have been added to the website.
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.
Loading the configuration (optional) 29
SmartNode 4940 Getting Started Guide 4 • Initial configuration
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
IMPORTANT
startup configuration you must answer this question with NO. Otherwise, the downloaded configuration will be overwritten and lost!

Bootloader

The bootloader ensures that basic operations, network access, and downloads are possible in case of interrupted or corrupted application image downloads. It offers console access to the Bootloader and the capability for downloading application images (e.g. SmartWare) via the serial link of the console.

Start Bootloader

To start the Bootloader, power on the SmartNode while pressing the reset button. Open a Telnet session to the SmartNode via one of the Ethernet interfaces, or open a CLI session via the console port (if available on the SmartNode). The login display will appear. Using the credentials admin / patton , log in to the SmartNode. The following prompt will be displayed:

The SmartNode router generates and uses radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used properly-that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions-may cause interference to radio and television reception. The SmartNode router have been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A comput­ing device in accordance with specifications in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to pro­vide reasonable protection from such interference in a commercial installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If the SmartNode router does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by disconnecting the unit, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: moving the computing equipment away from the receiver, re-orienting the receiving antenna and/or plugging the receiving equipment into a different AC outlet (such that the computing equipment and receiver are on different branches).

E1 PRI

The E1 PRI is usually connected to a PBX or switch—local exchange (LE). Type and pin outs of these devices vary depending on the manufacturer. In most cases, a straight-through RJ-45 to RJ-45 can be used to connect the PRI with a PBX. A cross-over cable is required to connect to an NT device, as illustrated in figure 10 on page 50.
Hazardous network voltages are present in the PRI cables. If you detach the cable, detach the end away from the SmartNode or interface card first to avoid possible electric shock. Network hazardous voltages may be present on the
