(To establish voice communication via domain name, please make sure the other party gateway/terminal supports domain name calling.)
o Internet sharing, easy setup and network administration
Via internal PPPoE/DHCP/fixed IP allocation agents, the VIP-110/VIP-210 establishes Internet access via a single user account and shares Internet resource with everyone on your office network. Via an intuitive user interface, network administration or IT personnel can complete an Internet connection in just minutes! System administrators can logon to the machine locally from the LAN or remotely check machine or network status and perform administration or trouble-shooting from anywhere in the world.
o NAT Optimization, Firewall policy packet filtering and QoS mechanism
The VIP-110/VIP-210 provides user definable policy-based firewall protection, and a packet filtering mechanism to prevent business or residential network from malicious attacks or in-

VIP to VIP

The previous section shows you how to test your VIP without modify any settings. This section we will shows you how to connect two VIP together and make the call.
Assume that we have a second ITG, called VIP B, which is a VIP-110 with default setting as well. Now, lets setup its WAN IP address to another, e.g. 172.16.0.2 and connect it together to VIP A with the following three steps.
Step 1.
On VIP B:
ITG>
net set wan ip 172.16.0.2
ITG>net store ITG>net reset <confirm prompt and restart machine>.
Step 2.
Step 3.
Connect WAN port of VIP A and VIP B to the same switch or hub, please make sure the connection is ready.
On VIP A:
ITG>ping 172.16.0.2 ; ping to VIP B Ping 172.16.0.2 success
1 out of 1 pings succeeded.
VIP B:
ITG>ping 172.16.0.1 ; ping to VIP A Ping 172.16.0.1 success
1 out of 1 pings succeeded.
After the three steps, this means both VIP can find each other. Now lets setup a remote H.323 gateway to each other.
Dialplan setting on VIP A:
