Scope
This document refers to configuration of the Tenor AS/AX gateway products. This quick-start
guide enables you to configure a single phone call on a Tenor using SIP. As a test, you can send
the SIP call through a publicly available Proxy Server maintained by Quintum Technologies.
Introduction
SIP (Session Initiation Protocol), a recent addition to the Tenor product line, offers a new level of
mobility for IP calls, as well as integration of call-related services. Routing in SIP is
accomplished by using two servers: Proxy and Registrar. In most cases, you will point to the
same box and configure the same IP address for both servers.
The Proxy Server maintains a table of IP addresses and their corresponding Directory Numbers.
This table is used by the Proxy to find the right place to send your call. When you dial a number,
the Proxy looks up and finds out where the call must be sent. That information is used to route the
call for you.
Prerequisites
• The Tenor’s system software must be version P101-14-00 or later (which includes SIP).
To find out the version number, Telnet into the unit and type show –v.
• Ensure you have your Tenor ready for connection, located on a LAN that is connected to
the Internet.
• For purposes of this quick start, your connection to the Internet is assumed to be through
a DSL or cable connection. Other gateway connections are possible; use the principles in
this document as a guideline for configuration.

Connect Hardware
Your Tenor needs to be connected to your LAN. If you have already set it up, you can jump to the
next section, Configure the Tenor. Otherwise, you will need to achieve a few basic steps.
1. Assign the Tenor an IP address. Connect the Tenor directly to the PC with the supplied
serial cable. Power up the Tenor and open a HyperTerminal session (or use another
terminal emulation program). Assign the Tenor an available IP address on your LAN.
2. Make the Tenor IP address publically available. When you connect the Tenor to your
LAN (using the supplied Ethernet cable), you should list the Tenor in the DMZ of your
gateway router. This allows your Tenor to have a publicly accessible IP.
Caution: The gateway router serves as a firewall to protect your LAN from malicious
intrusion. Place the IP address of the Tenor in the DMZ so that callers may access your
Tenor, even though it is “behind” a firewall. Please change the Tenor’s administration
password as soon as possible to prevent malicious intrusion.
3. Determine the WAN IP. When you are configuring the gateway router, use its software
to find out the WAN IP that the router has received from your ISP.
Once the Tenor is connected to your LAN, you can configure the unit using Tenor Configuration
Manager, and make a SIP call.
Configure the Tenor
Note: The instructions below include information for making a test SIP call using a Proxy
Server maintained by Quintum Technologies. You can hear a Quintum recording as a test
of the first call.
1. Launch Tenor Configuration Manager, and when prompted, enter the IP address that
you assigned to your Tenor.
2. From the main menu tree, click on VoIP Configuration > Gateway. In the Outgoing
IP Routing field, click on the SIP only radio button. Click Confirm/OK.
3. From the main menu tree, click on System-Wide Configuration > Dial Plan. On the
General tab, in the Area Code field, enter the area code for the DN you are calling.
Enter 732 if you are using the Quintum DN 4609000 as a test. Click on Confirm/OK.
4. From the main menu tree, click on Ethernet Configuration > Ethernet Interfaces >
Ethernet Interface-1. On the General tab, in the External NAT IP field, enter the IP
address of your WAN. This is the IP you obtained earlier when configuring your
firewall. Click on Confirm/OK.
5. From the main menu tree, click on VoIP Configuration > SIP Signaling Group-1.
On the General tab, in the Primary Proxy IP field, enter the Primary Proxy IP,
208.226.140.141. Click on Confirm/OK.
6. On the Registration tab, in the Primary Registration IP field, enter the Primary
Registration IP of 208.226.140.141 (the same as the Proxy's IP).
