1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
The IP PBX Administration Guide provides instructions for administering the IP PBX system. IP
PBX is an embedded call-processing server communicating with client stations with Session
Initiation Protocol (SIP). It migrates the telephony network and the data network of a small-tomedium business (SMB) company into a manageable converged network. IP PBX works with
various IP phones (desktop, WiFi, Bluetooth, and DECT), voice-over-IP (VoIP) gateways, and
analog telephone adapters to route calls among client phones, analog phones, and PSTN network.
Additional voice features such as conferencing, auto attendant, and voicemail are seamlessly
enabled to all phones. IP PBX also provides Internet access to all LAN devices through Network
Address Translation (NAT).
IP PBX provides call control and media relay services to SIP clients and applications. It performs
the following primary functions:
• SIP Registrar
• SIP Outbound Proxy with media relay
• SIP Gateway (FXO)
• SIP PBX for extension calls
• Auto attendant IVR
• Voice mail IVR
• Meet-me conference
IP PBX has a built-in suite of voice applications for supplementary services and therefore no
special-purpose hardware is required. This means the total cost of ownership of a converged
network enabled by IP PBX is lower than building separated infrastructures for legacy telephony
network and data network. Besides, it comes with a web-browsable interface to the data network
configuration and voice service provisioning, which brings the manageability of both networks
together to facilitate administration locally or remotely.

2 System Configuration
This section describes how to configure system parameters used by IP PBX. The factory default
of LAN IP address is 192.168.1.1. Connect to LAN port and the configuration Web interface
could be reached at https://192.168.1.1/. Once connected, the browser will warn about accepting
a certificate. Please accept it. Then, give default administrator ID and password (both are admin)
to log in for administration. The administrator password could be changed in the User
Management page under user ID admin.
2.1 Time setup
The Time Setup page allows administrator to configure time zone and date for IP PBX. Select
System -> Time setup, current setting of time zone and date is displayed.
2.1.1 Time Zone Setup
Choose time zone in drop-down list, then click Set button.
2.1.2 Date Setup
Choose year, month, day, hour, minute, and sec in drop-down lists respectively, then click Set
button.
2.2 WAN setup
The WAN Setup page allows administrator to configure WAN network interface for IP PBX.
Select System -> WAN setup, current setting of WAN network interface is displayed, e.g. type,
IP address etc. Unless LAN only checkbox is checked, you can choose one of the three options
for your configuration, Static, DHCP, and PPPoE.
7 of 51
PLANET IPX-2000 user’s manual
2.2.1 Static
You can choose Static IP in Type drop-down list, and manually configure the following
information:
• IP address
• Network mask
• Default gateway IP address
• Primary and secondary DNS servers
And, click Save button to submit.
2.2.2 DHCP
Simply choose DHCP in Type drop-down list, and then click Save button. The acquired IP
address, network mask, and default gateway information will be displayed when revisit this page
later.
2.2.3 PPPoE
Choose PPPoE in Type drop-down list, enter username and password, and then click Save
button. The PPPoE dialing will start right away. When there is an active connection, the page
will show the acquired IP address, network mask, and default gateway information. There will
also be a Disconnect button to disconnect connection when desired.
2.2.4 Lan only
Check Lan only to disable WAN IP setting but allow the configuration of default gateway and
primary/secondary DNS servers.

PLANET IPX-2000 user’s manual
2.3 LAN setup
The LAN Setup page allows administrator to configure LAN network interface for IP PBX.
Select System -> LAN setup, current settings of LAN network interface are displayed. You can
modify them by entering new IP address and network mask followed by clicking Save button.
Note that by default IP PBX grants IP addresses to LAN devices via DHCP and translates those
addresses into its WAN IP address for access beyond the LAN subnet. As a result, modifying the
system LAN IP subnet must also change DHCP pool and LAN Routing (if any) accordingly.
Besides, IP PBX service must be restarted.
2.4 LAN Routing
To enable static routing among LAN subnets, enter network info and the IP address of the
corresponding gateway in IP PBX’s LAN. It is important to assure that the given gateway IP
address sits in the IP PBX’s LAN. Each subnet requires an entry even multiple subnets share the
same gateway, unless masking does the same. Examples are adding IP Route IDs net1 and net2
with parameters 192.168.128.0/255.255.255.0, 192.168.129.0/255.255.255.0, shared gateway
192.168.1.254 respectively. Or, IP Route ID net1n2 with 192.168.128.0/255.255.254.0 and
gateway 192.168.1.254 would do the same. Added routes enable routing immediately after
clicking Save button, however, IP PBX service needs to be restarted to regard calls from
designated LAN subnets as LAN traffic.
2.5 DynDNS setup
Dynamic WAN IP address causes difficulty for inbound connections from remote clients or IP
PBX systems. A popular work-around is to adopt domain names provided by DynDNS and run a
client on or behind the gateway router (or IP PBX). It is required to apply an account and create a
hostname in the account before configuration. Select Enable and give account info and refresh
interval to activate a DynDNS client. The client then uses Username and Password to access its
account and update the Hostname with the latest WAN IP address at DynDNS in Interval
seconds periodically.
9 of 51
PLANET IPX-2000 user’s manual
2.5.1 Enable DynDNS
Select Enable radio button, enter the Username, Password, Hostname, and Interval, and then
click Save button. Typical hostname has a form of <hostname>.dyndns.org. The refresh interval
is usually between 60 – 600 seconds depending on the volatility of WAN IP assignment.
2.5.2 Disable DynDNS
Select Disable radio button, and then click Save button.
2.6 QoS setup
To assure the bandwidth reserved for the outgoing VoIP traffic over regular data traffic from
LAN, QoS Setup page offers three parameters to characterize the WAN link. By default QoS is
disabled since these parameters must be correctly given according to the actual WAN speed.
2.6.1 Enable QoS
Select Enable radio button, enter the WAN uplink speed, WAN downlink speed, and Uplink
VoIP reserved (bandwidth), and then click Save button. For a popular 2M/256K ADSL program,
the WAN uplink speed would be 256 and the WAN downlink speed would be 2048 since the
unit is in kbps. The Uplink VoIP reserved could be, say, 192 out of the total 256 kbps to allow 2
concurrent G.711 calls.
2.6.2 Disable QoS
Select Disable radio button, and then click Save button.

PLANET IPX-2000 user’s manual
2.7 Virtual server
To enable access servers in LAN from a machine beyond WAN, select System -> Virtual
server to configure port mappings. Service ID names the service. Protocol and Port specify the
TCP/UDP port number on WAN IP to be forwarded to the Forward to port of Forward to IP
in LAN. Say 192.168.1.5 is a Mail Server to be seen from outside, one should configure TCP
port 25 to be forwarded to 192.168.1.5 port 25.
2.8 Maintenance
This page includes maintenance functions of IP PBX, from status display to storage backup, etc.
2.8.1 SIP registration status
This Display button lists registration status of each client and remote IP PBX and the IP/Port
from where they register. SIP trunk registrations, if any, are also shown in the end of the list.
Column Dynamic stands for whether the listed IP address is dynamic or specified. Reg.
Progress is the response code and message if registration has been attempted but not successful
so far. Slave Registrar column is used only under the stackable mode. It indicates with which
slave box a SIP client is registered. Blank means a client is registered with the master box.
2.8.2 Call Detail Record
CDR details each call record including calling and called numbers, channel (trunk if outbound)
in use, epochs when the call was made, answered, and ended, which yield the total and billable
durations. The last column denotes the disposition of a call like answered or not.
