sonnel. Opening the SmartNode case will void the warranty.
Mains Voltage: Do not open the case when either power cord is attached. The
SmartNode router is equipped with dual power supplies. Disconnect both
power supply cords before servicing. For systems without a power switch,
line voltages are present within the power supply when the power cords are
connected. The mains outlet that is utilized to power the SmartNode router
shall be within 10 feet (3 meters) of the device, shall be easily accessible, and
protected by a circuit breaker.
The Model SN4900 is not shipped with power cables. For AC powered units,
ensure that the power cable used meets all applicable standards for the country in which it is to be installed, and that it is connected to a wall outlet which
has earth ground.
Hazardous network voltages are present in WAN ports regardless of whether
power to the SmartNode is ON or OFF. To avoid electric shock, use caution
when near WAN ports. When detaching the cables, detach the end away from
the SmartNode first.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage
When starting to install interface cards place the interface card on its shielded plastic bag if you lay it on
your bench.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. It occurs when electronic
printed circuit cards are improperly handled and can result in complete or intermittent failures.
Always follow ESD prevention procedures when removing and
replacing cards.
Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good
skin contact. Connect the clip to an unpainted surface of the
chassis frame to safely channel unwanted ESD voltages
to ground.
To properly guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist
strap and cord must operate effectively. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of the chassis.
General observations
lean the case with a soft slightly moist anti-static cloth
• C
• Place the unit on a flat surface and ensure free air circulation
• Avoid exposing the unit to direct sunlight and other heat sources
Protect the unit from moisture, vapors, and corrosive liquid

Patton's SmartNode 4900 Series deliver the features you need for advanced multiservice voice and data networking. SmartNode 4900 Series combine high-quality voice-over-IP with powerful quality of service routing
features to deliver seamlessly integrated VoIP and data access over synchronous serial leased lines. This chapter
describes typical applications for which the SmartNode 4900 Series series 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.
SmartNode 4900 Series applications
SmartNode 4900 Series devices have dual 10/100Base-T Ethernet ports and a single V.35 or X.21 sync-serial
port. The two Ethernet ports provide full featured IP routing plus Ethernet and IP layer QoS services. The
sync-serial port provides WAN access for integrated voice and data via a leased-line connection to the network.
Voice prioritization and traffic management avoid network congestion and provide optimal voice quality. The
following sections show two typical converged voice-and-data applications.
Multiservice carrier access over leased lines
The SN4900 Series enables service providers to use Frame-Relay or PPP sync-serial access lines to offer Internet and VPN services integrated with voice services for up to 32 analog telephone lines (see figure 4). The dual
10/100Base-TX LAN ports can be used for LAN connectivity and a dedicated VPN and DMZ connection.
The FXS ports connect to PBXs, key-systems or handsets while the FXS ports can be used for local breakout or
fallback to the PSTN.

Introduction 22
SmartNode 4900 Series Getting Started Guide 2 • Applications overview
Like all members of the SmartNode family of VoIP solutions, the SmartNode 4900 Series supports all industry-standard VoIP signaling protocols, including SIP, H.323, T.38 fax-relay, plus fax- and modem-bypass. The
SmartNode 4900 is interoperable with leading softswitches and VoIP servers
Enterprise FXS concentration and extension over IP and T1/E1
The SN4900 Series IpChannel Bank can be used with a T1/E1 gateway to extend a T1 or E1 line over IP and
split it into FXS ports—providing operators and enterprise network administrators with a simple and costeffective option to provide a large number of FXS ports in a remote location (see figure 5).
Figure 5. Enterprise FXS concentration and extension over IP and T1/E1
Bulk analog line extensions
The SN4900 FXO and FXS models used in combination enable enterprises to extend up to 32 analog phone lines
over any IP link – be it the public Internet, a leased line or a WiMax link. 600kBit/s bandwidth are enough for 32
simultaneous voice or fax conversations, using G.723 compressed voice transmission.
Advanced quality of service (QoS) features ensure optimal bandwidth usage and voice quality, even on small bandwidth links and with simultaneous transport of data or VPN traffic between the SmartNodes.

Changing the WAN IP address
Select the context IP mode to configure an IP interface.
192.168.1.1(cfg)#context ip router
192.168.1.1(ctx-ip)[router]#
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).
172.16.1.99(ctx-ip)[router]#interface eth0
172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#ipaddress 172.16.1.99 255.255.255.0

2002-10-29T00:09:40 : LOGINFO : Link up on interface eth0.
172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#
Note If your WAN connection's IP address is assigned via DHCP, refer to
Chapter 21, "DHCP configuration" in the SmartNode Series SmartWare Software Configuration Guide for information on configuring
DHCP. Copy this modified configuration to your new start-up configuration. 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.
1. Configure IP address 40
SmartNode 4900 Series Getting Started Guide 4 • Getting started with the SmartNode 4900 Series
2. Connecting the SmartNode to the network
In general, the SmartNode will connect to the network via the ETH 0/0 (WAN) port. This enables the
SmartNode to offer routing services to the PC hosts on the ETH 0/1 (LAN) port. The SmartNode 4900 Series
is equipped with Auto-MDI-X Ethernet ports, so you can use straight-through or crossover cables for host or
hub/switch connections (see figure 17).

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>
Respectively from the host: ping 172.16.1.99
Note To ping outside your local LAN, you will need to 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 Configuration Guide.)
3. 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.
2. Connecting the SmartNode to the network 41
SmartNode 4900 Series Getting Started Guide 4 • Getting started with the SmartNode 4900 Series
Note 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.
Note If your application is unique and not covered by any of Patton’s configura-
tion 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.
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.
