Appendix A Voice communications

There are several ways to make calls to desired destination in IP Phone. In this section, we’ll lead you
step by step to establish your first voice communication via keypad and web browsers operat ions.

Case 1: Voice communication via SIP proxy server _SIP-50

VIP-254T-A

Number: 100 Number: 200

LAN IP Address
(192.168.0.1)

Machine configuration on the VIP-254T:

STEP 1:

Log in SIP-50 and create two testing accounts/password: 100 / 123 (for VIP-254T-A), and
200 / 123 (for VIP-254T -B) for the voice calls.

STEP 2:

Please log in VIP-254T-A via web browser, browse to the SIP setting menu and select the
Domain Service config menu. In the setting page, please insert the account/password

information obtained from your service provider (in this sample, we’re using PLANET SIP-50
as the SIP Proxy server for SIP account, call authentications), and then the sample

VIP-254T-B
LAN IP Address
(192.168.0.2)

SIP-50

WAN IP Address
(192.168.0.50)

configuration screen is shown below:

44

STEP 3:

STEP 4:

Repeat the same configuration steps on VIP-254T-B, and check the machine
registration status, make sure the registrations are completed.

To verify the VoIP communication, please pi ck up the telephone. Dial the destina tion number
to make call between SIP clients. For example, VIP-254T-A (with number 100) with keypad
number 200 to VIP-254T-B, or reversely makes calls from SIP client (VIP-254T-B) to the
number 100 (VIP-254T-A).

Case 2: Call Forward Feature_Example 1

In the following samples, we’ll introduce the Call Forward Feature applications.
In this example, there are three VIP-254T register to IPX-300 and VIP-254T_A had set Call Forward
function to VIP-254T_B. (The detail registration settings of IPX-300 and VIP-254T please refer to the
instruction of Case 3)

VIP-254T_A

VIP-254T_B VIP-254T_C

Machine configuration on the VIP-254T:

STEP 1:

Please log in VIP-254T_A via web browser, browse to the Phone Settings menu and select
the Call Forward config menu. In the setting page, please enable the All Forward function
and fill in the Name and URL of VIP-254T_B, then the sample configuration screen is shown
below:

45

STEP 2:

After set up completed and reboot machine, the LCD screen will show below:

10-19 17:20
# Forward #

After 2~3 seconds, the LCD screen will show below:

Test the scenario:

VIP-254T_C pick up the telephone and dial the number 1001(VIP-254T_A), because VIP-254T_A had
set up All Forward function to the number 2002(VIP-254T_B), so the number 2002(VIP-254T_B) will
ring up then it pick up the telephone and communication with the number 3003(VIP-254T_C).

10-19 17:20
AF 2002

Case 3: Call Forward Feature_Example 4

In this example, there are three VIP-254T and connect with Peer to Peer mode. VIP-254T_A had set
Call Forward function to VIP-254T_B.

VIP-254T_A

VIP-254T_B

VIP-254T_C

46

Machine configuration on the VIP-254T:

STEP 1:

Please log in VIP-254T_A via web browser, browse to the Phone Settings menu and select
the Call Forward config menu. In the setting page, please enable the All Forward function
and fill in the Name and URL of VIP-254T_B, and then the sample configuration screen is

STEP 2:

shown below:

After set up completed and reboot machine, the LCD screen will show below:

10-19 17:20
# Forward #

After 2~3 seconds, the LCD screen will show below:

10-19 17:20
AF 192.168.0.2

Test the scenario:

VIP-254T_C pick up the telephone and dial the IP Address 192.168.0.1(VIP-254T_A), because
VIP-254T_A had set up Al l Forward function to the IP Address 192.168.0.2(VIP-254T_B), so the IP
Address 192.168.0.2 (VIP-254T_B) will ring up then it pick up the telephone and communicati on with
the VIP-254T_C.
