1. Product Description
This guide describes basic use of the Sipura Technology SPA phone adapter – an intelligent low­density Voice over IP (VoIP) gateway. The SPA e nables carrier class residentia l and business IP Telephony services de livered over broadband or high-speed Internet connect ions. By intelligent, we mean the SPA maintains the states of all the calls it terminates. It is capable of making proper decisions in reaction to user input events (such as on/off hook or hook flash) with little or no involvement by a ‘middle-man’ server or media gateway controller.
Examples of proper reactions are: playing dial tone, collecting DTMF digits, comparing them against a dial plan and term inating a call. With inte lligent endpoints at the e dges of a network , performing the bulk of the call pr ocessing duties, the dep loyment of a large networ k with thousands of subsc ribers can scale quickl y without the introduction of complic ated, expensive servers. As desc ribed later in this section, the S ession Initiation Protocol ( SIP) is a good choice of call s ignaling protocol for the implementation of such a device in this type of network.
1.1. SPA Hardware Overview
The SPA has one of the smalles t f orm f actor s on the mar k et. It can be ins tall ed in minutes as a table­top or wall mount CPE device. The images belo w show the SPA-2000. The SPA- 1000 and SPA­3000 are similar to size and shape – the only difference being the color of the adapter.
Figures Figure 1, Figur e 2, Figure 3 and Fi gure 4 show the front, re ar, left side and right s ide of the SPA-2000, respectively.

The SPA has the following interfaces for networking, power and visual status indication:
1. Two (2) RJ-11 Type Analog Telephone Jack Interfaces (Figure 4, above): These interfaces ac cept standard RJ-11 telephone c onnectors. An Analog touc htone telephone or
fax machine m ay be conne cted to either int erf ace. If the s ervic e sup ports o nl y one incoming line, the analog telephone or f ax machine sho uld be connec ted to port one ( 1) of the SPA. Port one (1) is the outermost telephone port on the SPA and is labeled “Phone 1.”
The SPA-3000 has an RJ-11 interfac e labeled “Line” which can be used to connect the adapter to a PSTN analog telephone circuit.
2. One LED for Unit Status (Figure 4, above):
3. One Ethernet 10baseT RJ-45 Jack Interface ( Figure 2, above): This interface acc epts a standard or crossover Ethernet cable with s tandard RJ-45 connector. For
optimum perf ormanc e, Si p ura Technology recommends that a Category 5 cable or greater b e used in conjunction with the SPA.
4. One LED for Data Link and Activity ( Figure 2, above):
5. One 5 Volt Power Adapter Interface ( Figure 2, above) This interface acc epts the SPA power adapter that c ame with the unit. Sipura T echnology does not
support the use of any other power adapters other then the power a dapter that was s hipped with the SPA unit.

3. Software Configuration
3.1.1.1. Firmware Upgrade Firmware Upgrade via PC Utility Program:
From time to time, Sipura Technology will make available a PC executable file that will facilitate the upgrade of a SPA. In order to upgrade a device via this method, the end user must have administrative permission (via password protected log-in) to perform this upgrade.
Once the user has obtained the proper firmware upgrade executable, the user simply runs the program from a file location on their local PC. The PC program walks the user through the upgrade process via a graphical user interface. Generally, the entire upgrade process should take no more than five minutes to complete.
Please note: Some end-users who have obtained their SPA directly from a service provider will never need to manually upgrade their device. Via the remote upgrade process, Sipura Technology provides capability for the SPA to be maintained from a remote location (e.g. a service provider network server), using the Internet connection of the end-user as the conduit through which profile updates and firmware upgrades are performed.
3.2. IVR Interface
Administrators and/or users can chec k (read) and set ( write) basic net work configuration s ettings via a touchtone telephone connected to one of the RJ-11 phone ports of the SPA.
Please Note: Service Providers of fering service using the SPA may restrict, protect or turn of f certain aspects of the
unit’s IVR and web configuration capabilities. The Interactive Voice Res ponse (IVR) capabi lities of the SPA are des igned to give the adminis trator
and/or user basic rea d/write capabilities such that the unit c an attain basic IP network connectivit y and the more advanced browser-based configuration menu may be accessed.
1. The SPA IVR uses the following conventions: By factory default there is no password and no password authentication is prompted for all the IVR settings. If administrator password is set, password authentic ation will be prompted f or certain I VR settings . See 3.4.2 f or detailed inform ation about administrator password.
To input the password using the phone keypad, the following translation convention applies:
o To input: A, B, C, a, b, c -- press ‘2 o To input: D, E, F, d, e, f -- press ‘3 o To input: G, H, I, g, h, i -- press ‘4 o To input: J, K, L, j, k, l -- press ‘5 o To input: M, N, O, m, n, o -- press ‘6 o To input: P, Q, R, S, p, q, r, s -- press ‘7 o To input: T, U, V, t, u, v -- press ‘8 o To input: W, X, Y, Z, w, x, y, z -- press ‘9 o To input all other characters in the administrator password, press ‘0

3.3. Web Interface
The SPA provides a built-in web server. C onfigurati on and adm inistration c an be perfor med through this convenient web interf ac e.
3.3.1. Web Interface Conventions
The SPA uses the following conventions with the web administration capabilities:
o The SPA web adm inistration supports two privil ege levels: Administrator and U ser. To use
the User privilege, simply point a web browser at the IP address of the SPA; to use the administrator privilege, use URL http://IP_Address_Of_SPA/admin information about administration privileges.
o Version 1.0 of the SPA supports Internet Explorer 5.5 and above and Netscape 7.0 and
above.
o The web configuration pages can be password protected. See 3.3.2 for more information
about password protect.
o The user name of web Administrator is : admin o The user name of web User is : user
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
/. See 3.3.2 for more
11
o Note: The user names for both administrator and User are fixed and cannot be changed. o After making changes to SPA configuration parameters, pressing “Submit All Changes
button will apply all th e changes and if necessar y, automatically reboot the devi ce. Multiple changes may be made on multiple page tabs of the web int erf ac e at the s ame time. Pressing “Submit All Changes” will apply all the modifications.
Important Note: switching between page tabs won’t apply the changes to SPA, The only way to apply the changes is to press the “Submit All Changes” button.
o If the “Undo All Changes” button is clicked, an y modifications to prof ile parameters on any and
all pages will be reset back to their original values before modification.
NOTE: Pressing the “Undo All Changes” has no effect on the SPA; it will only reset the values on the web page.
3.3.2. Administration Privileges
The SPA supports t wo levels of adm inistration pr ivileg es: Adm inistrator a nd User, both pr ivileges can be password protecte d. Im portant note: b y factory default, there ar e n o pass words assigned for b oth Administrator and User.
The Administrator h as the privil ege to modif y all the web prof ile parameters and can also m odify the passwords of both Administrator and User. A User only has the pr ivilege to access part of the web profile parameter s ; the par ameter group that User c an ac ces s is s pec if ie d by the Administrator , which can only be done through provisioning.
To access the Administrator level privilege, use URL: http://IP_Address_Of_SPA/admin
/. If the password has been set f or Administrator, the browser will prom pt for authentication. The username for Administrator is “admin” and cannot be changed.
To access the User lev el privilege, use URL: http://IP_Address_Of_SPA/
. If the password has be en set for User, the br owser will prompt for User auth entication. The username f or User is “user” and cannot be changed.
When browsing Adm inistrator pag es, one can s witch to User pri vileges b y click the link “User Login”. (Note: if User password was set, the br owser wil l prompt for User authenticatio n when you clic k “User Login” link). On the other side, from the User pages you can switch to Administrator privilege by clicking the link “Admin Login.” Authentication is needed if Administrator password has been set.
Warning: S witching between the User and Administrator will discard the uncom mitted changes that have already been made on the web pages.
3.3.3. Basic and Advanced Views
The web configuration interface provides a Basic and an Advanced view from which the various configuration parameters can be accessed. The SPA Provisioning tab is only visible from the Advanced Administr ator vie w of the web interf ace.
Warning: Switching between the bas ic and a dv anc ed vie w will d isc ar d the u ncommitted changes that have already been made on the web pages.
3.3.3.1. Resync URL
Through Resync URL you can force the SPA to do a resync to a profile specified in the URL. Note: The SPA will resync only when it is idle. The syntax of Resync URL is:
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
12
http://<spa-ip-addr>/resync?[[protocol://][server-name[:port]]/profile-pathname]
If no parameter follows “/resync?”, the profile rule setting in provisioning is used. See Error! Reference source not found. for detailed information about profile rule in provisioning
If no protocol is specif ied, TFTP protocol is assumed. Note: O nly TFTP is supported in the current release.
If no server-name is specified, the host that requests the URL is used as server-name. If no port specified, default port of the protocol is used – 69 for TFTP. The profile-path is the path to the new profile to resync with. For example: http://192.168.2.217/upgrade?tftp://192.168.2.251/spaconf.scf
3.3.3.2. Reboot URL
Through the Reboot URL, you can reboot the SPA. Note: Upon request, the SPA will reboot only when it is idle. The Reboot URL is: http://<spa-ip-addr>/admin/reboot

Notes:
1. Reorder or Busy Tone will be played by default for all unsuccessful response status code
2. <RTP Port Min> and <RTP Port Max> should define a range that contains at least 4 even number ports, such as 100 – 106
3. If inbound SIP requests contain compact headers, SPA will reuse the same compact headers when generating th e respons e regardless the set tings of the <Use Compact Hea der> param eter. If inbound SIP requests contain norm al headers, SPA will substitute th ose headers with compact headers (if defined by RFC 261) if <Use Compact Header> parameter is set to “yes.”
4. During an active connec tion, the SPA can be pr ogrammed to send out compound RTCP p acket on the connection. Each compound RTP packet except the last one contains a SR (Sender Report) and a SDES.(Source Description). The last RTCP packet contains an additional BYE packet. Each SR ex cept the last one conta ins exac t l y 1 RR (R ec ei ver Report); the last S R car r ies no RR. The SDES cont ains CNAME, NAME, and TOOL ident ifiers. The CNAME is set to <User ID>@<Proxy>, NAME is set to <Display Name> ( or “Anonymous” if user block s caller ID), and TOOL is set to the Verdor/Hardware-platform-software-version (such as Sipura/SPA2000-
1.0.31(b)). The NT P timestam p used in the SR is a snaps hot of the S PA’s loc al ti m e, not the tim e reported by an NTP server. If the SPA rec eives a RR f rom the peer, it will a ttem pt to com pute the round trip delay and show it as t he <Cal l Ro un d T r ip Dela y> value (ms) in the Info section of SPA web page.

Notes:
1. SPA uses the configured codec names in its outbound SDP
2. SPA ignores the codec names in incoming SDP for standard payload types (0 – 95).
3. For dynamic payloa d t ypes, S PA ide ntif ies t he c od ec by the configured codec names. Comparison
is case-insensitive.
3.4.4.3. NAT Support

SAS Enable3 Enables the FXS Line to act as a Streaming Audio
Source (SAS). If enabled, the line cannot be used
for making outgoing calls. Instead, it auto-answers
incoming calls and streams audio RTP packets to
the calling party. SAS DLG Refresh
3
Intvl
If non-zero, this is the interval at which SAS sends
out session refresh (SIP re-INVITE) messages to
detect if connection to the caller is still up. If the
caller does not respond to refresh message, SPA
will terminate this call with a SIP BYE message.
The default = 0 (Session refresh disabled)
Range = 0-255 (s) SAS Inbound RTP
3
Sink
The purpose of this parameter is to work around
devices that do not play inbound RTP if the SAS
line declares itself as a “sendonly” device and tells
the client not to stream out audio. This parameter is
a FQDN or IP address of a RTP sink to be used by
the SPA SAS line in the SDP of its 200 response to
inbound INVITE from a client. It will appear in the c
= line and the port number and, if specified, in the
m = line of the SDP. If this value is not specified or
equal to 0, then c = 0.0.0.0 and a=sendonly will be
used in the SDP to tell the SAS client to not to send
any RTP to this SAS line. If a non-zero value is
specified, then a=sendrecv and the SAS client will
stream audio to the given address. Special case: If
the value is $IP, then the SAS line’s own IP
address is used in the c = line and a=sendrecv. In
that case the SAS client will stream RTP packets to
the SAS line. The default value is [empty]. NAT Mapping Enable Enable the use of externally mapped of IP address
and SIP/RTP ports in SIP messages . The mappin g
may be discovered by any of the supported
methods. NAT Keep Alive Enable
If set to “yes”, the configured <NAT Keep Alive
Msg> is sent periodicall y ever y <NAT Keep Al i ve
Intvl> seconds. NAT Keep Alive Msg Contents of the keep-alive message to be sent to a
given destination periodically to maintain the
current NAT-mapping. It could be an empty string.
If value is $NOTIFY, a NOTIFY message is sent as
keep alive. If value is $REGISTER, a REGISTER
message w/o Contact is sent. NAT Keep Alive Dest Destination to send NAT keep alive messages to. If
value is $PROXY, it will be sent to the current
proxy or outbound proxy SIP Debug Option None, 1-line, full, exclude OPTIONS, exclude
REGISTER, exclude NOTIFY, … Network Jitter Level 4 settings are available: very high, high, medium,
low. This parameter affects how jitter buffer size is
adjusted in the SPA. Jitter buffer size is adjusted
dynamically. The minimum jitter buffer size is 30

starting jitter buffer size value is larger for higher
jitter levels. This parameter controls the rate at
which to adjust the jitter buffer size to reach the
minimum. If the jitter level is set to high, then the
rate of buffer size decrement is slower (more
conservative), else faster (more aggressive). SIP 100REL Enable Enable the support or the 100rel SIP extension for
No reliable transmission of provisional responses (18x) and the use of PRACK requests.
Blind Attn-Xfer Enable
If enabled, the SPA performs an attended transfer operation by terminating the current call leg, and
No blind transferring the other call leg. If disabled, the
SPA performs an attended transfer by referring the other call leg to the current call leg while maintaining both call legs.
Proxy SIP Proxy Server for all outbound requests Use Outbound Proxy Enable the use of <Outbound Proxy>. If set to “no”,
No <Outbound Proxy> and <Use OB Proxy in Dialog) is ignored.
Outbound Proxy SIP Outbound Proxy Server where all outbound
No requests are sent as the first hop.
Use OB Proxy In Dialog
Whether to forcer SIP requests to be sent to the outbound proxy within a dialog. Ignored if <Use
Yes Outbound Proxy> is “no” or <Outbound Proxy> is
empty
Register Enable periodic registration with the <Proxy>. This
Yes parameter is ignored if <Proxy> is not specified.

Use DNS SRV Whether to use DNS SRV lookup for Proxy and
No Outbound Proxy
DNS SRV Auto Prefix If enabled, the SPA will autom atic ally prepend the
No Proxy or Outbound Proxy name with _sip._udp when performing a DNS SRV lookup on that name
Proxy Fallback Intvl This parameter sets the delay (sec) after which the
3600 SPA will retry from the highest priority proxy (or outbound proxy) servers after it has failed over to a lower priority server. This parameter is useful only if the primary and backup proxy server list is provided to the SPA via DNS SRV record lookup on the server name. (Using multiple DNS A record per server name does not allow the notion of priority and so all hosts will be considered at the same priority and the SPA will not attempt to fall back after a fail over)
Display Name Subscriber’s display name to appear in caller-id

User ID Subscriber’s user-id. Usually a E.164 number Password Subscriber’s a/c password Auth ID Subscriber’s authentication ID Use Auth ID If set to “yes”, the pair <Auth ID> and <Password>
No are used for SIP authentication. Else the pair <User ID> and <Password> are used.

Notes:
1. If proxy responded to REGISTER with a smaller Expires valu e, the SPA will renew registration based on this sm aller value inste ad of the configured value. If regist ration failed with an “Expires too brief” error respons e, the SPA will retry with the value given in the M in-Expires header in the error response.
2. MOH Notes:
• The remote party mus t indic ate t hat it c an r ece iv e au dio whi le h ol din g MO H t o work. That is the SIP 2xx response from the remote party in reply to the re-INVITE fr om the SPA to put the call on hold must have the SDP i ndicate a sendrec v or recvo nly attribut e and the r emote des tinatio n address and port must not be 0
3. SAS Notes:
• Either or both of lines 1 and 2 can be configured as an SAS server.
• Each server can maintain up to 5 simultaneous calls. If the second line on the SPA is disabled, then the SAS line can maintain up to 10 simultaneous calls. Further incoming calls will receive a busy signal (SIP 486 Response).
• The streaming audi o source m ust be off-hook for the stream ing to occur. Othe rwise incom ing calls will get a error response (SIP 503 Response). The SAS line will not ring for incoming calls even if the attached equipment is on-hook
• If no calls are in sess ion, batter y is removed from tip-and-ring of the FXS port. Some audio so urce devices have an L ED to indicate the b attery status. T his can be used as a visual indication whether any audio streaming is in progress.
• IVR can still be used on an SAS line, but th e user needs to f ollo w som e simple s teps: a) Connect a phone to the port and make sur e the phone is on-hook , b) power on the SPA and c ) pick up handset and press * * * * to invoke IVR in the usual way. The idea behin d this is that if th e SPA boots up and finds that the SAS line is on-hook, it will not r emove battery from the line so that IVR ma y be used. But if the SPA boots up and f inds that the SAS line is off-hook, it will remove batter y from the line since no audio session is in progress.
• Set up the Proxy and Su bscr iber Inf orm ation for the SAS Li ne as you norm all y would with a re gular user account.
• Call Forwarding, Call Screening, Call Blocking, DND, and Caller-ID Delivery features are not available on an SAS line.

Auto Inband = Send DTMF using the audio path; INFO = Use the SIP INFO method, AVT = Send DTMF as AVT events; Auto = Use Inband or AVT based on outcome of codec negotiation
Hook Flash Tx Method Select the method to signal Hook Flash events:
None
• None: do not signal hook flash events
• AVT: use RFC2833 AVT (event=16)
• INFO: use SIP INFO method with the single line “signal = hf” in the message body. The MIME type for this message body is taken from the <Hook Flash MIME Type> paramter
Release Unused Codec Yes
Notes:
1. A codec resource is co nsidered as allocated if it has been included in the SDP codec lis t of an active call, even though it even tuall y ma y not be the one chos en for the connec tion. So, if the G.72 9a codec is enabled and included in the codec list, that resource is tied up until the end of the call whether or not the call ac tually uses G.729a. If the G729a res ource is already allocated and si nce only one G.729a resource is allowed per SPA, no other low-bit-rate codec may be allocated for subsequent calls; the only choices are G711a and G711u. On the other hand, two G.723.1/G.726
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)

Notes:
1. The Call Progress Tones and DTMF playback level are not affected by the <FXS Port Output Gain>.
2. The interdigit tim er values are used as de faults when dialing. T he Interdigit_Lo ng_Timer is used after any one digit, if all valid m atching sequences in the dial plan are incomplete as dialed. T he Interdigit_Short_T imer is used af ter any one digit, if at least on e matching seq uence is com plete as dialed, but more dialed digits would match other as yet incomplete sequences.
3. SP A has had polarity rever sal feature since release 1 .0 which can be applied to both t he caller and the callee end. This feature is generall y used for ans wer supervision on the caller s ide to signal to the attached equipment when t he call has b een connected (rem ote end has ans wered) or disconnected (remote end has hung up). This feature should be disabled for the called party (ie by using the same polarit y for connected and idle state) and the CPC feature should be used instead.
4. W ithout CPC enabled, reorder tone will is p layed after a configurable dela y. If CPC is enabled, dial tone will be played when tip-to-ring voltage is restored.

Referral Services Codes One or more *code can be configured into
this parameter, such as *98, or *97|*98|*123, etc. Max total length is 79 chars. This parameter applies when the user places the current call on hold (by Hook Flash) and is listening to 2nd dial tone. Each *code (and the following valid target number according to current dial plan) entered on the 2nd dial-tone triggers the SPA to perform a blind transfer to a target number that is prepended by the service *code. For example, after the user dials *98, the SPA plays a special dial tone called the "Prompt Tone" while waiting for the user the enter a target number (which is checked according to dial plan as in normal dialing). When a complete number is entered, the SPA sends a blind REFER to the holding party with the Refer-To target equals to *98<target_number>. This feature allows the SPA to "hand off" a call to an application server to perform further processing, such as call park.
Notes:
- The *codes should not conflict with any of the other vertical service codes internally

processed by the SPA. You can empty the corresponding *code that you do not want to SPA to process.
Feature Dial Services Codes One or more *code can be configured into
this parameter, such as *72, or *72|*74|*67|*82, etc. Max total length is 79 chars. This parameter applies when the user has a dial tone (1st or 2nd dial tone). Enter *code (and the following target number according to current dial plan) entered at the dial tone triggers the SPA to call the target number prepended by the *code. For example, after user dials *72, the SPA plays a prompt tone awaiting the user to enter a valid target number. When a complete number is entered, the SPA sends a INVITE to *72<target_number> as in a normal call. This feature allows the proxy to process features like call forward (*72) or BLock Caller ID (*67).
Notes:
- The *codes should not conflict with any of the other vertical service codes internally processed by the SPA. You can empty the corresponding *code that you do not want to SPA to process.
- You can add a paramter to each *code in "Features Dial Services Codes " to indicate what tone to play after the *code is entered, such as *72`c`|*67`p`. Below are a list of allowed tone parameters (note the use of back quotes surrounding the parmeter w/o spaces) `c` = <Cfwd Dial Tone> `d` = <Dial Tone> `m` = <MWI Dial Tone> `o` = <Outside Dial Tone> `p` = <Prompt Dial Tone> `s` = <Second Dial Tone> `x` = No tones are place, x is any digit not used above If no tone parameter is specified, the SPA plays Prompt tone by default.
- If the *code is not to be followed by a phone number, such as *73 to cancel call forwarding, do not include it in this parameter. In that case, simple add that *code in the dial plan and the SPA will
send INVITE *73@..... as usual when user
dials *73.

• Off Hook Caller ID – This is used to delivery caller-id on incoming calls when the attached phone is off hook. See figure below (f). This can be call waiting caller ID (CIDCW) or to notify the user that the far end party identity has changed or updated (such as due to a call transfer). This is only available if the caller-id method is one of “Bellcore”, “ETSI FSK”, or “ETSI FSK With PR”.

4. SPA-3000 Configuration
4.1. Overview
The SPA-3000 has 1 FX S and 1 FXO port. Each p ort is a RJ11 connector – th e FXS Port is labeled “PHONE” and the FXO Port “LINE.”
A standard analog telep hone c an be co nnect ed to the FXS/PHO NE por t to prov ide VoI P serv ices just as with the SPA-1000 and SP A- 20 00. T he F X O/LINE por t c an be co nnec te d to a s tandar d PST N li ne or other phone servic e – including a nother VoIP s ervice. W ith the FXO/LIN E port, the SPA-30 00 can bridge a PSTN and a VoI P service. This functionality is r eferred to as a Gateway. We refer to the VoIP-To-PSTN c alling function as a PSTN Gateway, and PSTN-To-VoIP ca lling function as a VoIP Gateway. We also define:
- VoIP Caller – one who calls the SPA-3000 via VoI P to obtain PST N ser vic e.
- VoIP User – a VoIP Caller which has a user account (user-id and password) on the SPA-3000
- PSTN Caller – one who calls the SPA-3000 from the PSTN to obtain VoIP service.
Two VoIP services can be configured in the SPA-3000: one accessed from the FXS port and the other from the FXO por t. In this document, the VoIP service that is accessed from the FXS/PHON E port is referred to as the Line 1, and the VoIP service that is accessed from the FXO/LINE port is referred to as the PSTN Line.
Notes:
- The term PSTN line (case sens itive), on the other hand, s tands for the PSTN service c onnected to the FXO/LINE port.
- The notations [Line 1], [PSTN Line], etc., refer to the web page tabs appear on the SPA configuration web page. Eac h tab repres ents a logic a l group of conf igur ati on para meters.
The configuration of Line 1 is similar to Line 1 in the SPA- 2000, with several additional opt ions for PSTN-VoIP gatewa y configurations. Line 1 c an be configured with a regu lar VoIP account and used in the same way as th e L in e 1 of the SP A- 20 00. A s ec ond VoIP account can be configured to supp or t PSTN gateway calls exclusively. The options for controlling Line 1 and PSTN Line are configured under the [Line 1] and [PS TN Line] tabs on the SP A-3000 c onfigur ation web page res pective ly. Li ne 1 works almost independently of the PSTN Line. In f ac t , Lin e 1 c an b e dis a ble d wit hout affecting most of the operations on the PSTN Line. A different <SIP Port> parameter, however, should be assigned to Line 1 and PSTN Line. T he s ame VoIP account may be used for both Li ne 1 an d the P ST N Line as long as each line uses a different <SIP Port>.
The FXS/PHONE p ort can be electrically con nected to either the FX O/LINE port or the SLIC inside the SPA-3000, by opening or closing an internal PHONE Port Relay (under the control of SPA firmware). Befor e power is applied t o the unit, the rela y is open and the p hone is connected t o the PSTN line.
After power is applied to the unit, the ACT LED will turn on and blink to indicate network activity (transmit or receive) . The STATUS LED will also b link slowly to indicate DHCP dis covery (if DHCP option is enabled in t he SPA) and hardware initia lization. If all goes well, the STATUS LED will tur n off after 10-20s to indicate successful completion of hardware initialization. The ACT LED should remain mostly steady on with oc casional blinks. Whenever you pick up the handset of the PHONE port phone, the STATUS LED should become steady on until the phone is off-hook again.
Following successful hardware initialization, the relay must be closed at some point for normal operation. However , there is a chance that the PHONE p ort phone ma y be using the PSTN line (v ia the FXO/LINE port) an d closing the relay will therefore interrupt the call that is in progress (which
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
38
would be highly undesir able espec iall y if the call is a n em ergenc y). The SPA-300 0 uses the f ollowing algorithm to determine when to close the relay:
Off-Hook FXO port Close PHONE Port Relay If (Loop Current is 0) {
Done (since PSTN line is not connected or inactive) } Else {
If (PHONE Port is on-hook) {
Done (since it is not using the PSTN line) } Else {
Open Phone Port Relay (since PHONE port phone is using the PSTN line)
While (1) {
Monitor FXO port Tip-To-Ring Voltage If (PSTN line is not in use) { Close Phone Port Relay Done }
}
}
}
Notes:
- A mechanical click sound can be heard whenever the relay is open or closed.
- The STATUS light will be steady on if the FXO port or the FXS port is off-hook.
- Once the PHONE Port Relay is closed, it will not be o pen aga in unt il the po wer is rem oved.
- To be able to invoke the IVR (voice configuration menu), the PHONE Port Relay must be closed.
4.2. SPA-3000 Voice Configuration Organization
The SPA-3000 can be thought of as having 4 logical voice interfaces, namely,
- FXS Interface
- FXO Interface
- VoIP1 Interface
- VoIP2 Interface
Figure 4.1 shows a block diagram of the voice interfaces and the group of configuration parameters for controlling t heir operations. It als o s ho ws the pos s i ble voic e pa ths with eac h segment labeled by a number in parenthesis. We shall refer to the voic e pat h of a call as a co nnec te d li s t of the pat h labels, such as (1) Æ (2) Æ (3) and (5) Æ (6) Æ (7). Please take a mom ent to familiarize your self with this diagram. We will make reference to it very often as we describe the different configuration scenarios.
Like the SPA-2000, the SPA-3 000 configuration parameter s are organized into 8 groups, with each group accessed by clic king the correspon ding tab on the top of the SPA web page. T hese 8 groups are:
1. System – Network parameters, DNS, NTP, Syslog, and Debug Servers
2. Provisioning – Profile rule, resync intervals and policy, and GPP
3. SIP – SIP stack control parameters for both VoIP interfaces
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
39
4. Regional – Call progress tones and cadences, ring cadences, * codes, international control for the FXS Interface. The tone and cadence parameters also apply to the VoIP2 and FXO interfaces
5. Lin e 1 – Audio, NAT , SIP, Network, Gateway, Supplementary Services, Polarit y parameters for VoIP1 and FXS
6. PSTN Line – Audio, NAT, SIP, and Network parameters for VoIP2
7. User 1 – User options for VoIP1 and FXS
8. PSTN User – User options for VoIP2 and FXO
In addition, there is a 9

4.2.1. FXS Interface
This is the interface to the FXS/PHONE Port through which the user accesses the Line 1 VoIP service. It controls ho w the SPA exchanges signals with the phone attached to FXS/PHONE port. It supplies power to the ph on e an d s e ns es its on/off hook state. This interface can be c onf ig ur ed un der the [Regiona], [Line 1], and [User 1] tabs.
Options that can be configured on the FXS Interface include:
Polarity reversal signal generation
CPC signal generation
Ringer characteristics
Call progress tones generation
Transmit and receive gains
DTMF playback level and timing
Caller-ID delivery signal format
Voice-Mail messages waiting indication
Impedance
On/off hook and hook flash detection timing
FAX tones detection

40
The FXS interface is the same as that in the SPA-2000. Please refer to the SPA-2000 sect ion for more details on configuration of this interface.
4.2.2. FXO Interface
This is the interf ace to the F XO/LINE port. It c ontrols the exchange of s ignals betw een the SPA and the PSTN line attached to the F XO/LINE port. It draws power from the PSTN lin e and controls the on/off hook state. T his interface can be configure d under the [Regional] and [PS TN Line] tabs, with the following functions:
- Polarity revers al detection: SP A can detect polar ity reversal of the tip-to-ring volt age as a PSTN disconnect signal (section 4.7)
- CPC signal detection: SPA can detect CPC or momentary removal of tip-to-ring voltage as a PSTN disconnect signal (section 4.7)
- Disc onnect Tone detectio n: SPA can detect th e occurr ence of disc onnect t one on the PSTN line ; the characteristics of this tone is configurable (section 4.7)
- PSTN v oice activit y detection: SPA can m onitor voic e activit y on the PST N line and co nsider the call has ended if no activity for a long period (section 4.7)
- Ring detection: The characteristic s of the ringing signal to detect c an be finely adjus ted with the following parameters :
o <Ring Frequency Min> - lower limit of the frequency of valid ring signal o <Ring Frequency Max> - upper limit of the frequency of valid ring signal o <Ring Validation Time> - minimum duration of valid ring signal o <Ring Threshold> - minimum Vrms of a valid ring signal o <Ring Timeout> - delay in de-asserting a ring signal after it is removed from the PSTN line o <Ring Indication Delay> - delay in assert ing a ring signal after it is detected on the PSTN line
- DTMF detection: Detects DTMF digits on the PSTN line
- FAX Tones detection: Detects FAX CED and CNG tones on the PSTN line
- Parallel handset detection: SPA detects if the PSTN line is being used by another extension
sharing the line, if the tip-to-r ing volt ag e drops belo w the <Line- In- Us e Vo lta ge >
- <SPA to PSTN Gain>: Increase or decrease the signal level sent to the PSTN line. The valid range is from -15 dB to 12 dB in 1 dB increment. Note: Increasing this gain may increase the level of echo heard on the VoIP call leg, while decreasing it may reduce the level of the same echo
- <PST N to SPA Gain>: Increase or decrease the signal l evel received from the PST N line. The valid range is f rom -15 dB to 1 2 dB in 1 dB incr ement. Note: Increas ing this gain m ay increase the level of the echo heard on the VoIP call leg, while decr easing it may reduce the level of the same echo
- Caller-ID detec tion and decoding: SPA can detect and decode Bellcor e Type I Caller-ID (FSK) signal on the PSTN line after the first ring
- <FXO Port Impedance>: SPA supports 16 impedance settings
- Sends these signals to the PSTN Line: Tones, DTMF, On/Off Hook
- Miscellaneous parameters for international compliance control:
o <Tip/Ring Voltage Adjust> - Adjust the Tip/Ring voltage on the PSTN line o <Operational Loop Current Min> - Adjust the minimum loop current at which the SPA can
operate
o <Curren t Limiting Enable > - If enabled, it l imits the loop current to a maximum of 60mA per
the TBR21 standard
o <Ringer Impedance> - Set the impedance of the ringer o <On-Hook Speed> - Adjust the time for the loop c urrent to drop to 0 after the S PA takes the
FXO port on-hook
To get the most out of your SPA-3000, it is highl y recommended to connect a PST N service to the LINE port with Type I Caller-ID subscription. This will allow the following additional functionalities:
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
41
- Limit the use of the gateway by PSTN Caller-ID number
- Selectively forward PSTN callers to different VoIP destinations
Notes:
- The <Cal ler-ID Method > param eter under [Regio nal] tab onl y controls the Ca ller-ID sign al format sent by the SPA t o t he Ca ll er- ID de vic e a ttac he d t o t h e FX S/ PHO NE p or t; it does not apply to the caller-id signal f orm at sent to the SP A by the PSTN switc h via th e FXO/LIN E port. At pr esent th e SPA can only decode Bellcore FSK style Caller-ID signal sent by the PSTN switch.
4.2.3. VoIP Interfaces
There are 2 VoIP i nterfaces in t he SPA-3 000. Each V oIP interf ace can be co nfigured t o register with a VoIP Service Provid er ( VSP), and to r eceive a nd m ake calls over the IP n et work . Dependin g on the functionality you have in mind, you can configure either or both interfaces. The VoIP1 and VoIP2 interfaces correspond to the Line 1 VoIP service, and the PSTN Line VoIP service, respectively.
The [SIP] parameter group and a portion of the [Regional] parameter group apply to both VoIP interfaces. The [Line 1] an d the [User 1] parameter groups are dedicated to VoI P1, while the [PSTN Line] and the [PSTN User] parameter groups to VoIP2.
VoIP1 and VoIP2 interfaces can be configured independently with the same or different VSP. The same VSP account can be configured for both interfaces but the <SIP Port> parameter must be different for each interface in this case.
Most VSP require the following parameters configured on a VoIP interface:
- <Proxy>
- <User ID>
- <Password>
- <Register>
- <Register Expires>
Some VSP may also require the following parameters to be configured:
- <Outbound Proxy> (from VSP) and <Use Outbound Proxy> = yes
- <Auth ID> and <Use Auth ID> = yes
4.2.4. Call Types
The type of calls supported by the SPA-3000 can be described in terms of the originating, intermediate, and terminating interfaces involved:
1. FXS to VoIP1
2. VoIP1 to FXS
3. FXO to VoIP2
4. VoIP2 to FXO
5. VoIP1 to FXO
6. FXO to VoIP2 to VoIP1 to FXS
7. FXS to VoIP1 to VoIP2 to FXO
#1 and #2 are conv entional VoIP calls . #3 lets a PSTN c aller hop-on to use Vo IP service. #4 le ts a VoIP caller hop-off to use PST N ser vice. #5 is sim ilar to #4 except the c aller es tablis hes the VoIP cal l leg by calling the VoIP1 int erface instead of the Vo IP2 interface. #6 allo ws the PSTN call to ring the FXS port phone; we called this “ringing thru”. #7 allows you to call the PSTN from the phone.
Notes:

42
- VoIP1- to-VoIP2 a nd VoI P2-to-VoI P1 are inte rnal SIP calls. Sig naling an d media pac kets ar e sent to the loop back addres s 127.0. 0.1. Hence call t ypes #6 and #7 ar e possi ble eve n if the Eth ernet port is not connected
The following sections describe each type of calls in more details.
4.2.5. Determining the Availability of the PSTN line
SPA determines that the PSTN line is not available if the one of the following conditions is true:
- PSTN line is not connected (loop current is 0 or Tip/Ring RMS voltage is below 1V)
- PSTN line is being used by another extension. T ip/R in g RMS vo lta ge l o wer th an t he thr es h old set
in <Line-In-Use Volt age>
- PSTN line is ringing
- PSTN line is being used by the SPA to serve another VoIP caller
If the PSTN line is not available, the PSTN gateway function will be rejected; any VoIP caller requesting PSTN gateway functions will be turned down with a “Service Not Available” response.
4.3. Gate way Call Restricti on by Dial Plan
Gateway calls can be restricted on a per caller basis using dial plans. Up to 8 dial plans can be configured to restrict gateway calls in either direction. The corresponding SPA parameters are:
- [PSTN Line]<Dial Plan n>, n = 1 to 8
Notes:
- T he dial plan length lim it for <Dial Plan 1> through <Dial Plan 8> is 511 char acters. This is
less than that for the <Dial Plan> under [Line 1], which is 2047 characters.
- “gw0” – “gw4” syntaxes are not applicable to <Dial Plan 1> – <Dial Plan 8> (section 4.8)
- While PSTN-T o-VoIP calls must have d ial plan (1 – 8) spec ified, the dial plan c an be set to
“none” for VoIP-To-PST N calls. If the dial plan is “ none”, the SPA will take the FX O port off­hook and the VoIP caller will hear the PSTN dial tone directly from the PSTN switch immediately after s uccessful authentication; the target number dialed by the VoIP caller will be directly interpreted by the PSTN company. On the other hand, if the dial plan is not “none”, the VoIP caller will hear the “Outs ide Dial Tone” g enerated by the SPA, where th e caller will dial the target PSTN num ber. This number will be received and process ed by the SPA with the chosen dial plan (the FXO port is still on-hook while the caller is entering the target number). If the target number is valid, the SPA then takes the FXO port off-hook and automatically dials the final target number (according to the chosen dial plan) out to the PSTN line. The characteristics of the Outside Dia l Tone can be changed b y modifying the <Outside Dial Tone> parameter (under [Regional] tab).
- You can “forward” all VoIP callers of the PSTN Line to a certain PSTN number (with or
without authenticatio n) by setting a hot line rule in the d ial plan, suc h as (S0<:1408 9991234>) which sends all callers to 14089991234 automatically once the SPA auto-answers and authenticates the VoIP call. To make this works more transparently to the caller, you may disable authentication or add the caller to the access list.

4.4. Authentication Methods
VoIP Callers can be authentic ated by one of the following m ethods by setting th e <VoIP Caller Auth Method> parameter:
1. No Authe ntication: All callers will be accepted for service. T he dial plan to be used for all VoIP callers for this case is the one selected in <VoIP Caller Default DP>.
2. PIN: Cal ler is prompted to enter a V oIP PIN right after the call is answered (i.e., after the SPA replies with a 200 respons e). Up to 8 PIN’s, < VoIP C aller 1 PI N> to < VoIP Calle r 8 PIN>, c an be setup to access the PST N gateway a nd each PIN can be assig ned a dif ferent dia l plan us ing th e <VoIP Caller 1 DP > to < VoIP Cal ler 8 DP> param eters, re spective ly. The c aller will h ear a b eep­beep-beep tone, kno wn as the VoI P PIN Tone, as the prompt to enter the VoIP PI N. T he ton e wil l be played repeatedl y until a PIN digit is r eceived. Af ter the f irst digit, the us er b y default will h ave 10s to enter each s u bsequ ent PIN digit. If no n e w PIN di git is ent er ed f or more than 10s, the SP A will terminate the call. This inter-PIN-digit timeout is set in the <VoIP PIN Digit Timeout> parameter. The PIN number entry must be ended by a pound (#) key. By default the caller will b e given 3 chances to enter a valid PIN. If no valid PIN is received after 3 trials, the SPA will terminate the call. The nu mber of VoIP PIN entry trials to allow can be chan ged by setting the <VoIP PIN Max Retry> param eter. If the last PIN entr y is invalid, the VoIP P IN Tone will resum e and the caller can re-enter the PIN again. The characteristics of the VoIP PIN Tone can be changed by setting <VoIP PIN Tone> ([Regional] tab). T he VoIP PIN Tone should be set with a finite timeout (the def ault VoIP PIN tone has a timeout value of 10s ). If no valid PIN is received after the maximum number of trials, the SPA will terminate the call.
3. HTTP Digest: SIP INVIT E must contain a va lid Authorization h eader that is computed bas ed on an Auth ID and a pas sword using MD5 digest algorit hm. The Auth ID must be specif ied in the username param eter in the Author ization h eader. Up t o 8 Aut h ID/Pass words, <V oIP User 1 Au th ID>/<VoIP User 1 Passwor d> to <VoIP Us er 8 Aut h ID>/<VoIP User 8 Pas sword>, can be setup to access the PSTN gatewa y. Each Auth ID/ Pass word c an be assign ed a dif ferent dia l plan us ing the <VoIP User 1 DP> to <VoIP User 8 DP> param eters, respectively. If the inb ound INVITE to the PSTN Line does not h ave an Authorization hea der or the credentials it cont ains are invalid, the SPA will repl y with a 401 response. If the user name parameter in the Autho rization header does not match any of the <VoIP User n Auth ID>, n = 1 to 8, the SPA will reply with a 403 response. If the INVITE request a target PSTN number (as in one-stage dialing) that is not allowed by the corresponding dial plan for that caller, the SPA will also reply with a 403 response.
VoIP callers can also be gated b y a list of Caller-ID patterns bef ore authenticatio n rules are applied. These patterns are s pecifie d in <VoIP Ca ller ID Pa ttern> which is a com ma sepa rate list of Caller-ID patterns. The VoIP Caller-ID is extracted from the inbound INVITE request FROM header User-ID field. If the FROM header has “Anon ymous” (cas e-inse nsiti ve) in the d ispla y-nam e f ield, however , the SPA treats the VoIP Ca ller-ID as “Anonymous”. Each Caller- ID pattern is a case insensitive alpha­numeric string with spec i al wil dca rd c har acter s ‘? ’ an d ‘*’ , whic h s ta nds f or “ an y singl e di git” a nd “0 or more of any digits” respectively. For example: 1408*,15101234567,18??*,anonymous,jsmith. It is recommended not to ins ert white spaces before and after the comma, although the y are allowed. If <VoIP Caller ID Pattern> is blank, all VoIP callers will be processed by the SPA for authentication and subsequent gateway services upon successful authentication. If <VoIP Caller ID Pattern> is not blank, then the VoIP Calle r ID must match one of the given patterns or else will be r ejected by the SPA with a 403 response without further processing.
In addition, a VoIP Caller can be automatically accepted for PSTN gateway access without going through the authenticatio n process if the sour ce IP address of the inboun d INVITE request matc hes one of the pattern specif ied in the <Vo IP Access Lis t>. This is a com ma separated lis t of IP address patterns, also with special wildcard characters ‘?’ and ‘*’. For example:192.1 68.2.*,66.12?.12?.4. If the list is not blank and the s ource IP address of the inbou nd INVITE matches any of the patterns in the list, the VoIP cal ler wil l be gra nted ac c es s to the P STN gateway as if the Auth entic a tion Method is
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
44
set to “none” (and so the <VoIP Caller Default DP> applies and 1-stage dialing is possible in this case).
Notes:
- One-stage dialing is possible only if <VoIP Caller Auth Method> is “none” or “HTTP Digest”. Unless the caller number is in the < VoI P Ac c ess Lis t >, the “ PIN” m ethod r equ ires 2- s tage dial ing : Caller will need to di al the tar get PSTN num ber after enter ing a valid PIN. One-st age dialing c an be globally disabled by setting <One Stage Dialing> to “no”, for which case all VoIP callers (including Line 1) will be required to dial the PSTN target number upon successful authentication.
- If the V oIP Caller is cal ling f rom Line 1 of the sam e unit. Authentic ation is s kipped regardles s the setting of <VoIP Ca ller Auth Method>. The dial p lan to use in this case in <Line 1 VoIP Caller DP> for normal operatio n, or <Line 1 Fal lback DP> fo r Line-1-F all back -To -PST N operatio n (when network link is down or Line 1 registration fails).
PSTN Callers can be authenticated by one of the following methods by setting the <PSTN Caller Auth Method> parameter:
1. No Auth ent ic at ion: A ll C al ler s wil l be ac c epte d f or ser v ic e. In th is c ase the dial plan to be us e d f or all PSTN callers is taken from <PSTN Caller Default DP>.
2. PIN: Caller is prompted t o enter a PST N PIN right after the call is auto-ans wered b y the SPA ( by
taking the FXO port off-hook ). Up to 8 PIN’s, <PST N Caller 1 PIN> to <PST N Caller 8 PIN>, can be setup to access the VoIP gateway and eac h PIN can be assigned a different dial plan us ing the <PSTN Caller 1 D P> to <PST N Caller 8 D P> para meters, r espectively. T he caller wil l hear a beep-beep-beep tone, k nown as th e PSTN PIN Tone, as the prom pt to enter the PSTN PIN. The tone will be played repe atedly until a PIN digit is rec eived. After the first dig it, the user b y default will have 10s to enter each s ubs eque nt PI N dig it. If no ne w PIN dig it is entered for more than 10s, the SPA will play the Reorder T one and then terminate the cal l by taking the FXO port on-hook . This inter-PIN-digit tim eout is set in the <PSTN PIN Digit T imeout> parameter. The PIN num ber entry must be ended b y a pound (#) ke y. By default the caller will b e given 3 chances to enter a valid PIN. If no valid PIN is received after 3 trials, the SPA will ter minate the call. The number of PSTN PIN entry tria ls to all ow can be chang ed b y sett ing th e <PST N PIN Max R etr y> param eter. If the last PIN entry is inva lid, the P STN PIN T one will r esum e and the caller can re- enter the PI N again. The characteristics of the PSTN PIN Tone can be changed by modifying <PSTN PIN Tone> ([Regional] t ab). The PSTN PIN Tone sh ou ld b e s et with a f in ite t imeout (the default P ST N PIN tone has a timeout value of 10s). If no valid PIN is received after the maximum number of trials, the SPA will play reorder tone and then terminate the call.
PSTN callers can also b e gated b y a list of Ca ller-ID p atterns bef ore authe nticatio n rules are applied. These patterns are specified in <PSTN Caller ID Pattern>, a comma separate list of Caller-ID patterns. The PSTN Caller -ID is decoded from the signal deli vered by the PSTN switch. It is highl y recommended that t he PSTN line connecte d to the SPA comes with t he caller-id deli very service. If Caller-ID signal is not pres ent or the Caller-ID number is block ed, the SPA treats the PSTN Ca ller-ID as “Anonymous”. Each Caller-ID number is a case-insensitive alphanumeric string with special wildcard characters ‘?’ and ‘*’ , which stands for “any single digit” and “0 or more of any digits” respectively. For example: 1408*,15101234567,18??*,anon ymous. It is recommended not to insert white spaces befor e and after the comm a, although the y are allowe d. If <PST N Caller ID Patter n> is blank, all PSTN callers will be processed by the SPA for authentication and subsequent gateway services upon successful authentication. If <PSTN Caller ID Pattern> is not blank, then the PST N Caller ID must match one of the given patterns or else the SPA will not answer the call.
In addition, a PSTN caller can be automatically accepted for VoIP gateway access without going through the authent ication process if the Cal ler-ID number matches one of the patterns specif ied in the <PSTN Access List>. This is a comma separated list of Caller-ID patterns, also with special

45
wildcard characters ‘? ’ and ‘*’ (s ame s yntax as <PSTN Caller ID Pattern>). If the list is not b lank and the Caller-ID number matches any of the patterns i n the list, that PSTN c aller will be granted acc ess to the VoIP gateway as if the Authentication Method is set to “none” (and so the <PSTN Caller Default DP> applies in this case).

4.5. VoIP-To-PSTN Calls (Call Type #4)
In order to obtain P STN services via V oIP, the VoIP call er must establish con nection with the SP A­3000 by way of a standard SIP INVIT E request addressed to the SIP account c onfigured under the [PSTN Line] tab. The PST N gateway can be configured to support 1-stage and 2-stage dialing as described below. This is call type #4 and the voice path for this type of calls is (5)Æ(6)Æ(7)
4.5.1. One-Stage Dialing
One-stage dialing is pos s ibl e if <One Stage Dialing> is “yes”, <VoIP Authentic at ion Metho d > is “ no ne” or “HTTP Digest” or if the source IP of the inb ound INVITE m atches one of the patterns s pecified in <VoIP Access List>. T o perf orm one- stage dialing, t he Reques t-URI of the IN VITE to the P STN Line should have the form dialed-number@SPA-Address, where dialed-number is the target PSTN number as “dialed” by the VoIP caller, and SPA-Address is a valid address of the SPA, such as
10.0.0.100:5061.
If the PSTN line is currently not available, the SPA replies to the INVITE with a 503 response. Otherwise, it compar es the dialed-number with the <User ID> configur ed for the PSTN Line. If the
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
46
dialed-number is not spec if i ed or is the s am e as <Us er ID>, the S PA i nterprets this as a request for 2­stage dialing (see next section). Otherwise, the SPA processes the dialed-number by a corresponding dial plan. If the dial plan processing fails, the SPA replies with a 403 response. Otherwise, it replies with a 200 respo nse and at the sa m e time takes the FX O port off hook and dials the final number returned from the dial plan to the PSTN switch.
4.5.2. Two-Stage Dialing
In 2-stage dialing, the VoIP caller will need to dial the target PSTN number upon successful authentication. If the d ial plan c onfigur ed f or this VoI P c aller is “none” , SP A will t ak e the FX O port off ­hook but will not dia l a n y digits a utomatically after acc epti ng t he caller for gateway s erv ic e. H enc e t he caller will hear the dial tone directly provided by the PSTN switch, which will interpret the target number dialed b y the VoIP caller. If the dial plan is not “none”, the S PA will play the Outside Dial Tone to direct the VoI P call er to dial the PST N num ber; the F XO por t wil l sta y on-hook while th e SPA collects a complete PSTN target number from the caller according to the selected dial plan. If the dialed number is valid, the SPA takes the FXO port off-hook and dials the final target number returned from the d ial plan to the P STN switch accordin gly. If the dialed n umber is invalid, the SPA terminates the call immediately.
To invoke 2-stage dialing, the VoIP ca ller can form a SIP INVITE request to send the PST N Line without a user-id fie ld in the Re quest-URI or with a user- id that m atches exac tly the <Us er ID> of the PSTN Line. Other user- id in the Request- URI will be treated as a requ est for 1-stage dia ling (Sec tion
4.5.1) if 1-stage dial ing is e nabled, or dr opped b y the SPA (as if no user -id is g iven) if 1- stage dia ling
is disabled. The VoIP PIN digits and target number digits must be sent to the SPA out-of-band using the
RFC2833 protocol (a.k .a. AVT Tone). The SP A does not accept an y DTMF digits sent to it in-b and over VoIP.
Notes:
- VoIP-T o-PSTN Gateway function can be globally disa bled by setting <VoIP-To-PSTN Gatewa y Enable> to “no”; SPA will reply with a 503 response to inbound INVITE sent to the PSTN Line
- If the PST N line is not connected, or is in use by an other extension or an other VoIP caller, the
SPA will reply with a 503 response to inbound INVITE sent to the PSTN Line
- The <User ID> of the P STN Line can be blank. In th at case Registration shou ld be disabled for the PSTN Line
- W hen the SPA decides to accept an incoming INVIT E, it immediately sends a 180 response to the VoIP caller, and eventually a 200 response to “answer” the call. You can set the desired delay before the SPA sends o ut the 200 respons e after the 180 r esponse in the <VoIP Ans wer Delay> parameter. This delay can be 0.
- You can i nsert a sm all amount of dela y before the S PA starts auto-dialing th e final target num ber to the PSTN line after the SP A takes the F XO port off-hook . This dela y is specif ied in the <PST N Dialing Delay> parameter. T his delay is used to make sure the PSTN switch is ready to rece ive DTMF before the SPA starts dialing.
Below is the pseudo code for accepting a VoIP caller for PSTN gateway service.

4.6. PSTN-To-VoIP Calls (Call Type #3)
This is call type #3 with th e voice path (7) Æ(6)Æ(5). PSTN-To- VoIP Calls can be m ade with 2-stage dialing only. The only authentication method available is the PIN method. The SPA auto-answers (i.e., takes the FXO por t off-hook) after the PSTN line rings for a c ertain number of seconds. This auto-answer delay is configured in the <PSTN Answer Delay> parameter, and should be set to a larger enough value to allow enough time for the SPA to decode the Caller-ID signal sent by the
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
48
switch (for US telcos, this value shoul d be at least 3-4s ). If <PSTN Caller Auth Metho d> is “PIN”, the SPA then prompts the caller to en ter the PIN num ber. If the g iven PIN m atches one of <PST N Caller n PIN> values, the SPA p lays the D ial Tone to the FX O port and is r eady to acc ept digits of the VoIP target number from the PS T N caller . T he c ollec te d di g its wil l be proc es sed by the dial plan associated with the PIN number. If <PSTN Caller Auth Method> is “none”, the SPA plays the Dial Tone immediately right af ter it auto-answers the PSTN call; the <PSTN Caller Default DP> is used for all PSTN Callers for this case. Note that the chosen dial plan for any PSTN caller cannot be “none”.
If the caller enters a val id PSTN number accor ding to the chosen dial plan, the PST N generates an INVITE to establish the VoIP call leg via the VoIP2 in terface configured under the [PSTN Line] tab. The From header of the INVIT E will be the VoIP2 account, or substituted with the P STN Caller-ID name and number if they are sent by the PST N switch and decoded successf ully by the SPA and <PSTN CID For VoIP CID> is s et to “yes”. Furthermore, the S PA will prepend the PSTN Caller-ID name and number with th e pref ix es c onf igured in <P S TN CID Name Perfix> and <P ST N CID Number Prefix> respectively.
Notes:
- PSTN-To-VoIP Gateway service can be globally disabled by setting <PSTN-To-VoIP Gateway Enable> to “no”. In that case, the SPA will not auto-answer any PSTN calls
- If the <Line En ab le> ([ PST N Line] tab) is “n o”, or VoIP 2 is not s ucc essf ully regis ter ed and <Mak e Call Without Reg> ([ PSTN Line] tab) is “ no”, or the Ether net link is down, t he SPA will not auto­answer the PSTN call as if <PSTN-To-VoIP Gateway Enable> is set to “no”.
- Speed dial is allowed by the PSTN caller; 8 speed dials can be configured under [PSTN User] tab
- You can “ forward” PST N callers unc onditional ly with a hot line or warm line rule in the c hosen dial
plan, after the caller is successfully authenticated
- SPA supports selective call forwarding or blocking of PSTN callers such that a PSTN caller is either “forwarded” to a fixed VoI P number or “bar red” from accessing the VoIP gateway (the call will not be answered by the SPA in the latter case). Selective call forwarding and blocking functions are conf igured under [ PSTN User]. S PA does not aut henticate the PSTN caller if he is configured to be forwarded.

4.7. Terminating Gateway Calls
A gateway call has t wo ca ll legs : t he P STN call leg and the VoI P c all l eg. A g ateway call is term inated when either call leg is e nded. It is ver y important th at the SPA tak es the FXO port on- hook when the call terminates or else the PSTN l ine cannot b e used again. T he SPA det ects th at the PST N call le g is ended when one of the following conditions occur during a call:
1. The PSTN line tip-to-ring voltage drops to a very low value (< 1V) for a finite duration of time. This can happen if the PST N line is dis connecte d from the FXO port, or when the PST N switch s ends a CPC signal to indicate that the call has been disconnected. The duration of this very low voltage must last for at le ast t he le ngth as spec if ied in <Min C PC D uration >. T he det ectio n of CP C signa l can be turned off by setting <Detect CPC> to “no”.
2. A polarit y reversal is d etected at the FXO port. The polarit y reversa l must last f or at least 100ms or it will be ignored by the SPA. The detection of polarity reversal signal can be turned off by setting <Detect Polarity Reversal> to “no”
3. Dis connect Tone detected on t he FXO port. The char acteristics of the Disc onnect Tone can be changed by modif ying the <Dis connect Tone > param eter. The detec tion of D isconnect T one can be turned off by setting <Detect Disconnect Tone> to “no”
4. When there is no voice activity det ected from the PSTN l ine for a cont inuous peri od of time. T he condition must last in continuation for at least the length of time specified in the <PSTN Long Silence Duration> par ameter. The sensitivit y of the detection can be adjusted b y setting <PSTN Silence Threshold>; t he higher the threshold, the easier the SPA will detec t voice activity. The detection of this condition can be turned off by setting <Detect PSTN Long Silence> to “no”.
The SPA determines that the VoIP connection is ended (or broken) if:
1. SPA receives a SIP BYE request from the VoIP peer
2. No RTP pack ets received from the VoIP Pe er for a continuous period of time larger than <VoIP
Long Silence Duration> seconds. The detection of this condition can be turned off by setting <Detect VoIP Long Silence> to “no”
3. VoIP peer fails to respond to a periodic dialog refresh request from the SPA. The interval between periodic ref resh mess ages is s et in the <VoIP DLG Ref resh Intvl>. T he ref res h mess age
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
50
is a SIP Re-INVITE request which the VoIP peer must reply with a 200 class response. The sending of dialog refresh messages can be disabled by setting <VoIP DLG Refresh Intvl> to 0.
When any of the above occurs, the SPA takes the FXO port on hook and sends the proper SIP signaling messages to end the VoIP call leg. In addition, you can limit the total duration of a VoIP gateway call and of a PSTN gatewa y call by setting the <PSTN-T o-VoIP Call Max Dur > and <VoIP­To-PSTN Call Max Dur > parameters, respectivel y (setting either of these param eters to 0 imply the total duration of the gateway call is unlimited).
Finally, the VoIP or PSTN caller can enter * * # before hanging up to force the SPA to hang u p the FXO port and tear do wn the VoIP call le g. This command can on ly be sent by the callin g party; the SPA will not act on the com mand if sent by the called party. This command is especially useful if none of the PSTN disconnect signals can be detected reliably by the SPA.
The configuration parameters mentioned in this section are:
- [PSTN Line]<Detect CPC>
- [PSTN Line]<Min CPC Duration>
- [PSTN Line]<Detect PSTN Long Silence>
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN Long Silence Duration>
- [PSTN Line]<Detect VoIP Long Silence>
- [PSTN Line]<VoIP Long Silence Duration>

4.8. Line 1 VoIP Outbound Call Routing (Call Type #7)
The voice path f or this cal l type is (1)Æ(2)Æ(4)Æ(6)Æ(7) . Calls m ade from Line 1 are rout ed throug h the configured Line 1 s ervice provider by default. This behavior can b e ov er rid den b y IP di aling wher e the calls can be routed to an y IP address entered by the user. SPA-3000 allo ws more flexible call routing with the addition of 4 sets of gateway parameters and new dial plan parameters:
- [Line 1]<Gateway n>, n = 1 to 4
- [Line 1]<GWn NAT Mapping Enable>, n = 1 to 4
- [Line 1]<GWn Auth ID>, n = 1 to 4
- [Line 1]<GWn Password>, n = 1 to 4
Gateways 1 to 4 are specified in a dial plan with the special identifiers “gw1”, … “gw4”. In addition, the identifier “gw0” represen ts the internal PSTN gatewa y via the FXO port. One can specify in the dial plan to use gwn (n = 0,1,2,3,4) when making certain calls. If more gateways are needed, one can specify any gatewa y addres s in the dial plan. Ther e are 3 d ial plan param eters that can be us ed with call routing: “usr”, “pwd”, and “nat” which are, respectively, the user-id (or authentication-id) and password to be use d for a uthentic ation with the gi ven gate way, and whether t o enab le NAT mapping when routing calls through that gateway. Below are some examples
Examples Description
<9,:>xx.<:@gw1> User dials 9 to start Outside Dial Tone, followed by 1 or
more digits, and the SPA routes the call to Gateway 1.
[93]11<:@gw0> Route 911 and 311 calls to the local PSTN gateway
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
51
<8,:1408>xxxxxxx<:@pstn.sipura.com:5 061;usr=joe;pwd=joe_pwd;nat>
<8,:1408>xxxxxxx<:@gw2:5061;usr=”Al ex Bell”;pwd=”anything”;nat=no>
User dials 8 to start Outside Dial Tone. When user dials a 7-digit number, SPA prepends it with 1408 and routes the call to pstn.sipura.com:5061, with user-id = joe, and pwd = bell_pwd, and NAT mapping enabled User dials 8 to start Outside Dial Tone. When user dials a 7-digit number, SPA prepends it with 1408 and routes the call to Gateway 2, but to port 5061 with user-id = “Alex Bell”, pwd = bell_pwd, and NAT mapping disabled
With the call-routin g capability, one can us e the same phone to m ake outbound calls to Line 1 VoI P or the PSTN line att ached to th e FXO port. I n fact, the SPA can brid ge a 3- way conferenc e with one VoIP leg and one PSTN call l eg. One can also setup multiple PST N gateways at different locations and configured Line 1 to use different gateway when dialing certain numbers.
Notes:
- gw0 – gw4 identif iers can only be used in [Line 1]<Dial Plan>. T hey are not allowed in [PSTN Line]<Dial Plan n>, n = 1 to 8
- The “usr”, “pwd”, and “nat” parameters, on the other hand, are allowed in all dial plans
- T he PSTN gateway will apply the <Line 1 V oIP Caller DP> to further limit the calls that can be
made by the Line 1 caller to the PST N; this dial pla n m ay be set to “none”. In ge neral cal ls route d from Line 1 to the PSTN are processed by 2 dial plans.
- T he SPA does n ot suppor t call tra nsf erring the VoIP p eer to the P ST N peer, or v ice ver sa, in a 3- way call or 3-way conference that involves one VoIP call leg and one PSTN call leg.
4.9. Line 1 VoIP Fallback to PSTN
When power is removed f rom the SPA-3000, th e FXS port will be connected t o the FXO port. In this case, the telephone att ached to the FXS port is elect rically connected to the PST N service via the FXO port. When power is applied to the SP A, the FXS port will be dis connected f rom the FXO port. However, if the PSTN line is in us e when the po wer is app lied to the SPA, the r ela y will not be f lipp ed until the PSTN l ine is r ele as ed. T his is don e so that t he SPA will no t inter ru pt an y call in pr ogres s on the PSTN line.
When Line 1 VoIP servic e is down (due to registration f ailure or loss of Ethernet link ), SPA can be configured to autom atically route all outbound calls to the inter nal gateway if <A uto PSTN Fallback > ([Line 1] tab) is set to “ yes”. The PST N gatewa y applies the <Line 1 F allback DP> t o further limit the calls that can be made b y the Line 1 caller during the f allback operation; th is dial plan m ay be set to “none”. This case also belongs to call type #7 and the voice path is (1)Æ(2)Æ(4)Æ(6)Æ(7).
4.10. VoIP-To-PSTN Calls Via VoIP1 Interface (Call Type #5)
All PSTN gatewa y calls can be routed from the VoIP2 interface if the user can dedicated on e VoIP account for the PSTN Line. Line 1 an d the PSTN Line can also be configured with th e same VoIP account if they use dif ferent <SIP Port>. If the ser vice provider allows m ultiple REGISTER cont acts and simultaneous r inging, both VoIP int erfaces can register per iodically with the s ervice provider. In this case, both VoIP interfaces will receive inbound calls to this shared account. The PSTN Line should be configured with a sufficiently long <VoIP Answer Delay> before the call is aut omatically answered to provide PSTN gateway function.
If the service provider d oes not allow more than one R EG IST ER c ont ac ts , then t h e PST N Li ne s ho uld not register. In this cas e, only Line 1 will ring on t he inbound call to this VoIP account (since it is the only line registered with the service pro vider). Line 1 can ha ve the call “forwar ded” to the PSTN li ne after a configurable delay using the Call-Forward-On -No-Answer feature with “gw0” as the forward

52
destination. This is Call Type #5 and t he voice path i s (3)Æ(8)Æ(7). Sim ilarly, Line 1 can app ly Call­Forward-All, Call-For ward-On-Busy, and Call-Forw ard-Selective features and send the call er to use the PSTN gateway.
Only the PIN Authent ication m ethod is allowed when a VoIP caller is forwarded t o access the PST N gateway from Line 1. If <VoIP Caller Auth Method > is “HTTP Digest”, the SPA tr eats it as if VoIP caller authenticat ion is disabled. Line 1 call for ward destinations are configured under the [User 1] tab.
An extension to the Forward-To-GW0 feature is to forward the caller to a specific PSTN number, using the syntax PSTN-number@gw0 in the call f orward des tination in [User 1]. W hen using this with Call-Forward-Selective for instance, one can come up with some ver y interesting app lications. For example, you can forward all callers with 408 ar ea code to 140812 34567, or all c allers with 800 are a code to 1800555835 5. When this syntax is used , a uthentication is not s kipped regardless the se tti ngs of <VoIP Caller Auth Meth od> and the target PSTN num ber will be automatically dialed b y the SPA once the caller is forwarded to the gw0.
4.11. PSTN Call Ring Thru Line 1 (Call Type #6)
The voice path is (7) Æ(6)Æ(4)Æ(2)Æ(1). This feature is enabled by setting <PSTN Ring Thru Line 1> to “yes”. If enable d, all incoming PST N calls will ring the Line 1 phone r egardless the VoI P gateway function is enab led o n the SP A or not. H ence the s ame p hone c an b e use d t o rec eive c alls from Line 1 VoIP and from the PSTN. If Line 1 is already engaged in another Vo IP c all at th e m oment the PSTN line rings, the SP A presents the PSTN call alert signa l to the user b y playing a c all-waitin g tone, and the user can then switc h between the PST N call and the VoIP call b y hook-f lashing (as she norm ally would with 2 VoIP calls).
SPA implements the ring-thru featur e by making an i nternal VoIP ca ll from the VoI P2 interface to the VoIP1 interface. A by-product of this approach is that the call forwarding and distinctive ringing settings o n Line 1 also apply to the PSTN call ringing thru Line 1. Ring thru stops as soon as the VoIP gateway auto-answers the PSTN call, or the VoIP1 interface returns a busy signal to VoIP2.
If Caller-ID is availa ble wit h the PST N c all, SPA will pr esent it in the FRO M head er of the intern al SIP INVITE message sent f rom the VoIP2 to the VoIP1 interface, which then pass es it on to the phone attached to the FXS port a s T ype I or Type II Cal ler-ID. For this to h appen, the SPA m ust be allowed sufficient time to com pletely decod e the PSTN Caller -ID signa l before it can r elay the dec oded caller ­id information to the phone. F or US Type I Caller-ID, the CID signal starts shortly after the first ring and ends before the sec o n d ring . The first ring usuall y las ts f or about 2s , th e in terval between the fir st and second ring is a bout 4s , and a t ypical Caller -ID signa l lasts f or about 1s. If the f irst ring that SPA sends to the phone is of the same length as the first ring sent by the PSTN switch to the SPA, the SPA should be configure d to ring thru Line 1 at least 1s after it detects that the PSTN line is ringing, such that by the time the SPA sends the Type I Caller-ID signal to the phone, it would have completely decoded th e P S T N Caller - ID sign al. This ring thru dela y is configured in <PST N Ring Thru Delay>. In a call- waitin g scenar io, t he SP A nee ds to s end T ype II Cal ler-ID t o the phone. In t hat case the delay should include the length of the PSTN first ring, which is usually much longer than the length of the first burs t of call-waiting tone gen erated by the SPA. In this example, the delay shoul d be about 3s and it can be conf igured in <PSTN Ring Thru CWT Delay>. In both cases, the <PSTN Answer Delay> shoul d be set larg e enough for the com plete Caller-ID s ignal to be sent to the phone before the SPA auto-answers the call. If PSTN Caller-ID is not available or the SPA has not completely decoded the PST N Caller-ID sig nal b y the tim e it sends Cal ler-ID sig nal to the phone, the signal it sends will be encoded with the VoIP account information configured for the [PSTN Line] instead of the PST N Caller-ID name and number. Note that <PSTN CID For VoIP CID> does not apply when ringing thru Line 1.
When the PSTN call r ings thru Line 1, you can ass ign a different <Default R ing> under the <PSTN User] tab so that it will so und differentl y from normal VoIP cal ls to Line 1. The <Default R ing> value

53
affects both ringing signa l and call-waiting tone. Un like the <Def ault Ring> setting under th e [User 1] tab, the <Default Ring > param eter under the [P ST N User] tab has the extr a choic e of “Follo w Line 1” , which means to follow the Line 1 ringer settings (including distinctive ringing rules) instead of forcing it to use a particular ring cadence.
When the SPA inserts the decoded PSTN c aller-id name and num ber into the SIP INVIT E message sent to the VoIP1 interface, it also prepends the name and number by the prefixes configured in <PSTN CID Number Perfix> and <PSTN CID Name Prefix> respectively.
If the PSTN caller hangs up bef ore Line 1 or the VoIP gateway answers the call, th e Line 1 phone may continue to r ing a little longer s ince it tak es a few s econds for t he SPA to realize th at the PST N line has indeed stopped ringing. This delay can be modified by setting the <PST N Ring Timeout> value (default is 5s).
The configuration parameters mentioned in this section are:
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN Ring Thru Line 1>
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN Ring Thru Delay>
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN Ring Thru CWT Delay>
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN Ring Timeout>
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN Answer Delay>
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN CID For VoIP CID>
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN CID Name Prefix>
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN CID Number Prefix>
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN Ring Timeout>
- [PSTN User]<Default Ring>
4.12. Symmetric RTP
In a normal VoIP connec tion, the SPA s ends RTP pac kets to the destina tion as specif ied in the SDP sent by the VoIP peer. When <Symmetric RTP> is set to “yes”, however, SPA will change the destination to send RT P packets to the source IP addres s and port of the inbound RTP pack et last received by the SPA. This setup can facilitate symmetric NAT traversal at the remote end. The parameter is available under both [Line 1] and [PSTN Line] tabs.
- [Line 1] <Symmetric RTP>
- [PSTN Line] <Symmetric RTP>
4.13. Configuration Examples and Call Scenarios
In this section we walk through some typical scenarios where the SPA-3000 can be applied.
4.13.1. Setup VoIP1 and VoIP2 With Separate VoIP Accounts
You have 2 FW D (Free World Dia lup) accounts A an d B, where A is for regular VoI P service and B dedicated for gateway functions.
a) Without Using STUN or NAT Mapping [SIP]<STUN Enable> = no
[SIP]<Substitute VIA Addr> = no [Line 1]<Line Enable> = yes [Line 1]<SIP Port> = 5060 [Line 1]<NAT Mapping Enable] = no [Line 1]<NAT Keep Alive Enable] = no
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
54
[Line 1]<Proxy> = fwd.pulver.com [Line 1]<Outbound Prox y> = fwdnat .pulver.com:5082 [Line 1]<Use Outbound Proxy> = yes [Line 1]<Use OB Proxy in Dlg> = yes [Line 1]<User ID> = userid_A [Line 1]<Password> = password_A [Line 1]<Register> = yes [Line 1]<Register Expires> = 3600
[PSTN Line]<Line Enable> = yes [PSTN Line]<SIP Port> = 5061 [PSTN Line]<NAT Mapping Enable] = no [PSTN Line]<NAT Keep Alive Enable] = no [PSTN Line]<Proxy> = fwd.pulver.com [PSTN Line]<Outbound Pr o xy> = fwdnat.pulver.com :5082 [PSTN Line]<Use Outbound Proxy> = yes [PSTN Line]<Use OB Proxy in Dlg> = yes [PSTN Line]<User ID> = userid_B [PSTN Line]<Password> = password_B [PSTN Line]<Register> = yes [PSTN Line]<Register Expires> = 3600
b) With STUN and NAT Mapping Similar to (a) with the following changes:
[SIP]<STUN Enable> = yes [SIP]<NAT Keep Alive Intvl] = 15 [SIP]<Substitute VIA Addr> = yes [SIP]<STUN Server> = stun.fwdnet.net [Line 1]<NAT Mapping Enable] = yes [Line 1]<NAT Keep Alive Enable] = yes [Line 1]<NAT Keep Alive Msg] = (blank) [Line 1]<NAT Keep Alive Dest> = $PROXY [Line 1]<Use Outbound Proxy> = no [PSTN Line]<NAT Mapping Enable> = yes [PSTN Line]<NAT Keep Alive Enable] = yes [PSTN Line]<NAT Keep Alive Msg] = (blank) [PSTN Line]<NAT Keep Alive Dest> = $PROXY [PSTN Line]<Use Outbound Proxy> = no
4.13.2. Setup VoIP1 and VoIP2 with Same VoIP Account
You have only on e VoI P ac c ount a nd your service pro vider d oes not allow multipl e r eg istr ati on. Set up the subscriber and proxy information as in the last section (with A = B) and make the following changes:
[PSTN Line]<Register> = no [PSTN Line]<Make Call Without Reg> = yes [PSTN Line]<Ans Call Without Reg> = yes
4.13.3. PSTN-To- VoIP Call Without Ringing Thru Line 1
Assume the VoIP2 interface is properly configured and successfully registered, and
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
55
[PSTN Line]<PSTN Ring Thru Line> = no [PSTN Line]<PSTN Answer Delay> = 14 [PSTN Line]<PSTN Caller 1 PIN> = 1234 [PSTN Line]<PSTN Caller n PIN> = (blank), n = 2 to 8 [PSTN Line]<PSTN Caller 1 DP> = 1 [PSTN Line]<Dial Plan 1> = (1408xxxxxxx|408xxxxxxx|xxxxxxx|1800xxxxxxx|800xxxxxxx) [PSTN Line]<PSTN Caller Auth Method> = PIN [PSTN Line]<PSTN PIN Max Retry> = 2 [PSTN Line]<PSTN CID For VoIP CID> = no [Regional]<PSTN PIN Tone> = (default) [Regional]<Dial Tone> = (default) [Regional]<Reorder Tone> = (default)
When a user calls the P STN l ine conn ected to the FXO port, t he SPA VoIP gate way ans wers the c al l after 3 rings (about 14s). T he SPA then prom pts the caller to ent er a PIN number b y playing a beep­beep-beep tone. T he user enters 1 and the tone goes again. T he user continu es to enter 234#. The SPA then plays a reg ular di al to ne t o pr ompt the user to enter a V oIP t arget number. The caller in th is case is limited b y the chosen dial plan to ca ll 7-digit number s, and 408 and 800 num bers with 10 or 11 digit dialing. T he VoIP t arget wi ll see the Caller-ID of the VoIP2 in terfac e inste ad of the name and number of the PSTN caller.
When the call is done, either side can hang up. Alternativel y, the caller can enter * * # to force the SPA to take the FXO por t on-hook, or enter * * 1 t o start a new VoIP g ateway call (with out the need for authentication again). For the latter case, the caller will hear regular dial tone again.
Should the caller enter a wr ong PIN the f irst time, he will have a second ch ance to re-en ter the v alid PIN. If the caller enters a wro ng PIN the second time, the SPA will pla y Reorder Tone for 10s and then hang up.
4.13.4. PSTN Call Answered By Line 1
The setup is similar to the last example except for the following changes
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN Ring Thru Line> = yes
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN Ring Thru Delay> = 1
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN Ring Thru CWT Delay> = 3
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN CID Name Prefix> = +
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN CID Number Prefix> = 990
- [PSTN User]<Default Ring> = 2
- [User 1]<Default Ring> = 1
- [Regional]<Ringn Cadence> = (default), n = 1 to 8
Assume the PSTN line has Type I Caller-ID service and the caller’s name is “Joe Smith” and the caller’s number is 14089991234.
a) Line 1 idle at the time the PSTN rings When the PSTN line rings , Line 1 rings also. If Line 1 is pick ed up before the VoIP gateway auto-
answers, it will be connected to the PSTN call. Once the call is answered by Line 1, the VoIP gateway will not be activated. T he Line 1 phone rings differ ently with <Ring 2 Cadence> as compared to the other inbound calls received from the VoIP1 interface. The Caller-ID shown on the Line 1 phone should be “+Joe Sm ith, 99014089991234” , with the prependin g of the configure d name and number prefixes.
b) Line 1 busy at the time the PSTN rings
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
56
If Line 1 is bus y when the PSTN line r ings, the SPA will not attempt to ring through, even if Line 1 later becomes idle while the PSTN is still ringing.
c) Line 1 connected on a VoIP call (via the VoIP1 interface) at the time the PSTN rings When the PSTN line r ings, the SPA pla ys Call Waiting T one to alert the Line 1 user and shows ca ll-
waiting Caller-ID to t he Line 1 phon e. The user ca n switch betwe en the VoIP cal l and the PST N call by hook-flashing the phone.
4.13.5. VoIP-to-PSTN Call via VoIP2 Interface With PIN Authentication
Assume the PSTN Line has a dedicated VoIP account separated from Line 1, and setup
- [PSTN Line]<VoIP Caller ID Pattern> = (blank)
- [PSTN Line]<VoIP Access List> = (blank)
- [PSTN Line]<VoIP Answer Delay> = 0
- [PSTN Line]<VoIP Caller Auth Metho> = PIN
- [PSTN Line]<VoIP Caller 1 PIN> = 4321
- [PSTN Line]<VoIP Caller n PIN> = (blank), n = 2 to 8
- [PSTN Line]<VoIP Caller 1 DP> = none
- [Regional]<VoIP PIN Tone> = (default)
a) PSTN line available at the time of the call When the VoIP2 interf ace is called, the S PA auto-answers im mediately (by repl ying a 200 response
to the inbound INVITE). T he SPA then prompts VoIP caller for a PIN with a beep-b eep-beep tone. There is only 1 PIN (432 1) conf igured on the SP A, so the caller must enter 4321# . W hen a valid PIN is received, the SP A immediat ely takes the FX O port of f-hook since no di al plan is s et for this PIN. If the PSTN line is in ser vice, the user sha ll hear PSTN dial ton e at this point. The caller can now dial any target PSTN number.
Now you want to limit the VoI P caller to call only 408 area code and 7- digit numbers by mak ing the following changes:
- [PSTN Line]<VoIP Caller 1 DP> = 2
- [PSTN Line]<Dial Plan 2> = (1408xxxxxxx|xxxxxxx)
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN Dialing Delay> = 3
With these new settings i n place, the SPA plays the O utside Dial Tone after r eceiving the valid PIN, while leaving the FXO Port on-hook. The caller then enters the digits of the target PSTN number which will be rec eived and analyzed by the SPA. If the target number is valid according to the di al plan, the SPA tak es the FX O port of f-hook , wait for 3s, and then dials t he final num ber returned fr om the dial plan. The caller will also hear th e PSTN dial tone for about 3s after the FX O port is tak en off­hook.
b) PSTN line not available at the time of the call In this case the SPA will r eply to the inbound INVIT E with a 503 response. Not e that the SPA does
not detect Dial Tone on the PSTN line. So if the PSTN lin e is out of s er vice, th e c aller wil l get d ead a ir after the SPA takes the FXO port off-hook.
4.13.6. VoIP-to-PSTN Call via VoIP2 Interface With HTTP Digest Authentication:
Assume the PSTN line is available and in servic e and the VoIP2 interfac es are properly configured. Setup:
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
57
- [PSTN Line]<VoIP Caller Auth Method> = HTTP Digest
- [PSTN Line]<VoIP User 1 Auth ID> = jdole
- [PSTN Line]<VoIP User n Auth ID> = (blank), n = 2 to 8
- [PSTN Line]<VoIP User 1 Password> = silicon-valley
- [PSTN Line]<VoIP User 1 DP> = 3
- [PSTN Line]<Dial Plan 3> = (1408xxxxxxx|1510xxxxxxx|<:1408>xxxxxxx)
- [PSTN Line]<One Stage Dialing> = yes
- [PSTN Line]<User ID> = 8899
- [PSTN Line]<PSTN Dialing Delay> = 2
- [PSTN Line]<VoIP Answer Delay> = 6
a) One-Stage Dialing The caller device s ends a SIP INVIT E request to the VoIP2 inter fac e with the User- ID 11122 33 in t he
Request-URI. The SPA chall enges the INVITE request with a 401 respo nse. The caller device then retries the INVITE request with the pr oper c redentials c omputed with the auth entic ation ID “jdo le” and the password “silicon-valley” using the MD5 digest algorithm, and embedded them in the Authorization header. The Authorization he ader must have the usern ame parameter set to “jdo le”, th e authentication ID, or els e the SPA will rep ly with a 403 res ponse. If the credent ials are incorre ct, the SPA will challenge the INVITE again. Otherwise, the SPA takes the user-id 1112233 from the Request-URI and processed it by the corresponding dial plan. If the target number is invalid according to the dial p lan, the SPA als o replies 403 to the INVIT E. In the current ex ample, the target number is valid and the final number returned from the dial plan is 14081112233. The SPA immediately replies a 18 0 response and waits for about 6s. Then the SPA s ends a 200 response, takes the FXO port of f-hook, and waits for another 2s before dialing the final num ber to the PSTN line.
b) Two-Stage Dialing Same as (a) but the INVIT E does not spec if y a User-I D in the Reques t-URI or th e User- ID is equal to
“8899”, same as the User -ID of the VoIP2 interf ace. The initial h andling of the c all is the sam e as (a) up to the point where the SPA sends out a 200 response. T hen, instead of taking the FXO port off­hook, the SPA plays the O utside Dial Tone a nd collec ts digits f rom the caller and pr ocessed them by the dial plan. Once a com plete valid num ber is received, the SPA tak es FXO off-hook and dials th e final number to the PSTN line.
4.13.7. Line 1 Forward-On-No-Answer to PSTN Gateway
Assume the PST N line is available and the VoIP1 interface is proper ly configured and success fully registered, and
- [User 1]<Cfwd No Ans Dest> = gw0
- [User 1]<Cfwd No Ans Delay> = 20
When the caller sends an I NVITE request to the VoI P1 interface, the Line 1 pho n e st arts ring ing . If no one picks up the phon e for abou t 20s, the ca ll will be autom aticall y answered b y the SP A by repl ying to the INVITE from the VoI P1 interface with a 200 response. T he Line 1 phone s tops ringin g and the PSTN gateway is read y to serve the VoIP caller. Fro m then on the call is handled like a VoIP-To­PSTN gateway call.
Notes:
- Note that in this case HTTP authentication is not allowed since the VoIP1interface does not authenticate inbou nd INVIT E req uests. If you m us t authent icate VoIP caller s via VoIP1 , you have to set <VoIP Caller Auth Method> to PIN. Otherwise caller authentication is disabled.
- If the PSTN line is not available the moment the SPA attempts to forward the call to gw0, the SPA will not answer the VoIP call. The call forward rule is ignored and Line 1 will continue to ring.
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
58
- The <VoIP Caller ID P attern> and <VoIP Access List> parameters s till apply to the VoIP callers when they access the PSTN gate way via the VoIP1 interface. If the caller is not allowed by the <VoIP Caller ID Pattern> the SPA will not answer the call. If the caller belongs to the <VoIP Access List>, authentication is not required.
4.13.8. Line 1 Forward-All to PSTN Gateway
Assume PSTN line is available and VoIP1 is properly configured and successfully registered, and
- [User 1]<Cfwd All Dest> = gw0
This is the same as the Forward-On-No-Ans wer case, except that t he PSTN gateway auto-ans wers the VoIP call to Line 1 imm ediate ly after the inb ound I NVIT E is rec eived b y the VoIP1 interf ace. If the PSTN line is not available at the moment, the SPA will not answer the call.
4.13.9. Line 1 Forward-On-No-Answer to a Particular PSTN Number
Assume PSTN line is available, and VoIP1 is properly configured and successfully registered, and
- [User 1]<Cfwd No Ans Dest> = target-PSTN-number@gw0
- [User 1]<Cfwd No Ans Delay> = 20
This is very similar to the Forward-On-No-Answer-To-PSTN case, except that the SPA will automatically dial the give n target-PSTN-number on the PSTN line r ight after it an swers the VoIP c all leg. This is a special case of 1-stage dialing where the target number is hard-wired in the configuration. The c aller will not be authenticat ed in this case regardless the s etting of <VoIP Caller Auth Method>. However the caller is still limited by <VoIP Caller ID Pattern>.
4.13.10. Line 1 Forward-Selective to PSTN Gateway or Number
This case is s imilar as the above cas es of ca ll forward ing to g w0, but appli es onl y when VoI P caller’s number matches a specific Caller-ID pattern. For example:
- [User 1]<Cfwd Sel1 Dest> = gw0
- [User 1]<Cfwd Sel1 Caller> = 1408*
- [User 1]<Cfwd Sel2 Dest> = 1415445566 6@ g w0
- [User 1]<Cfwd Sel2 Caller> = 1510*
With this setup any VoIP caller in the 408 area code will be connected to the PSTN gateway for service, while any VoIP caller in the 510 area code will be forwarded to the PSTN number
1415445566.
4.13.11. From Line 1 Dials 9 to Access PSTN-Gateway for Local Calls
Insert the rule “<9,:1408>xxxxxxx<:@gw0>” to [Line 1]<Dial Plan>, and set
- [PSTN Line]<Line 1 VoIP Caller DP> = none
When the user picks up the Line 1 phone to make a call, he can d ial 9 to invoke the Outside Dial, followed by a 7-digit num be r. The SP A then prepe nds the 7-di git num ber with 1408 and d ials th e final 11-digit number to the PSTN line. The Line 1 caller will not be authenticated.
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
59
4.13.12. From Line 1 Route 311 and 911 Calls to PSTN-Gateway
Insert the rule “[39]11<:@gw0>” to [Line 1]<Dial Plan>, and set
- [PSTN Line]<Line 1 VoIP Caller DP> = none
When the user picks up the Line 1 phone and dials 311 or 911, the call is routed to the PSTN gateway.

PSTN Caller Default DP
PSTN Caller ID Pattern
Description Default
Enable or disable PSTN-To-VoIP Gateway functionality. If set to “no”, gateway is disabled but PSTN calls still ring through Line 1 (if <PSTN Ring Thru Line 1> is enabled) If set to “yes”, the outbound VoIP call will assume the caller-id of the PSTN caller, if PSTN caller ID is available. Otherwise, the PSTN Line’s VoIP account information is used. The PSTN Caller ID is after the application of <PSTN CID Name Prefix> and <PSTN CID Number Prefix> A prefix to prepend to the PSTN caller ID number when ringing through Line 1 or used in outbound VoIP call. Note that most caller-id devices can only display 0-9 for the caller number field. A prefix to prepend to the PSTN caller ID name when ringing through Line 1 or used in outbound VoIP call. Method to be used to authenticate a PSTN Caller for VoIP gateway services. Choose from {none, PIN} Number of trials to allow a PSTN Caller to enter a valid PIN number. If enabled, incoming calls will also ring Line 1 (after a delay as specified in <PSTN Ring Thru Delay>). Hence the Line 1 user can accept call waiting from the PSTN side. The caller-id from the PSTN service, if available, will be passed onto Line 1 also when ringing through (For this to work, the ring through delay must be set long enough such that PSTN caller-id is completely decoded before the SPA sends caller-id signal to the FXS port). Index of the dial plan in the dial plan pool to be used for the PSTN caller who does not require authentication (when authentication method is none, or when the caller’s number is in the access list).

If value is set to 0, SPA will not send refresh messages and VoIP call-leg status is not checked by the SPA. The refresh message is a SIP ReINVITE and the VoIP peer must response with a 2xx response. If VoIP peer does not reply or response is not greater than 2xx, the SPA will disconnect both PSTN and VoIP call legs automatically. Delay in seconds before starting to ring thru Line 1 after the PSTN starts ringing. In order for Line 1 to have the caller-id information, the delay should be set to larger than the delay required to complete the PSTN caller-id delivery. Similar to <PSTN Ring Thru Delay> but applies when Line 1 is already on a call (where the SPA alerts the Line 1 user of the PSTN call by playing a call-waiting tone instead of ringing).

5. User Guidelines
The SPA can be configured to the custom requirements of the service provider, so that from the subscriber’s poin t of view, the s ervice behav es exactly as the service pro vider wishes – with varying degrees of control left with the end user. This means that a service provider can leverage the programmability of the SPA to offer sometimes subtle yet continually valuable and differentiated services optimized for the network environment or target market(s).

6. Appendix I: Dial Plan
The SPA allows each line to be configured with a distinct dial plan. The dial plan specifies how to interpret digit sequences dialed by the user, and how to convert those sequences into an outbound dial string.
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
83
The SPA syntax for the dial plan closely resembles the corresponding syntax specified by MGCP and MEGACO. Some extensions are added that are useful in an end-point.
The dial plan functionality is regulated by the following configurable parameters:
Interdigit_Long_Timer
Interdigit_Short_Timer
Dial_Plan ([1] and [2])
Other timers are configurable via parameters, but do not directly pertain to the dial plan itself. They are discussed elsewhere in this document.
Interdigit Long Timer:
ParName: Interdigit_Long_Timer
Default: 10
The Interdigit_Long_Timer specifies the default maximum time (in seconds) allowed between dialed digits, when no candidate digit sequence is as yet complete (see discussion of Dial_Plan parameter for an explanation of candidate digit sequences).
Interdigit Short Timer:
ParName: Interdigit_Short_Timer Default: 3
The Interdigit_Short_Timer specifies the default maximum time (in seconds) allowed between dialed digits, when at least one candidate digit sequence is complete as dialed (see discussion of Dial_Plan parameter for an explanation of candidate digit sequences).
Dial Plan[1] and Dial Plan[2]:
ParName: Dial_Plan[1] and Dial_Plan[2] Default: ( *xx | [3469]11 | 0 | 00 | <:1408>[2-9]xxxxxx |
1[2-9]xx[2-9]xxxxxx | 011x. )
The Dial_Plan parameters contain the actual dial plan scripts for each of lines 1 and 2.
Dial Plan Digit Sequences:
The plans contain a series of digit sequences, separated by the ‘|’ character. The collection of sequences is enclosed in parentheses, ‘(‘ and ‘)’.
When a user dials a series of digits, each sequence in the dial plan is tested as a possible match. The matching sequences form a set of candidate digit sequences. As more digits are entered by the user, the set of candidates diminishes until only one or none are valid.
© 2003 - 2004 Sipura Technology, Inc Proprietary (See Copyright Notice on Page 2)
84
Any one of a set of terminating events triggers the SPA to either accept the user-dialed sequence, and transmit it to initiate a call, or else reject it as invalid. The terminating events are:
No candidate sequences remain: the number is rejected.
Only one candidate sequence remains, and it has been matched completely: the number is
accepted and transmitted after any transformations indicated by the dial plan, unless the sequence is barred by the dial plan (barring is discussed later), in which case the number is rejected.
A timeout occurs: the digit sequence is accepted and transmitted as dialed if incomplete, or transformed as per the dial plan if complete.
An explicit ‘s end’ (user presses the ‘#’ k ey): the digit sequence is acc epted and transmitted as dialed if incomplete, or transformed as per the dial plan if complete.
The timeout duration depends on the matching state. If no candidate sequences are as yet complete (as dialed), the Interdigit_Long_Timeout applies. If a candidate sequence is complete, but there exists one or more incomplete candidates, then the Interdigit_Short_Timeout applies.
White space is ignored, and may be used for readability.
Digit Sequence Syntax: Each digit sequence within the dial plan consists of a series of elements, which are individually
matched to the keys pressed by the user. Elements can be one of the following:
Individual keys ‘0’, ‘1’, ‘2’ . . . ‘9’, ‘*’, ‘#’.
The letter ‘x’ matches any one numeric digit (‘0’ .. ‘9’)
A subset of keys within brackets (allows ranges): ‘[‘ set ‘]’ (e.g. [389] means ‘3’ or ‘8’ or ‘9’)
o Numeric ranges are allowed with in the brac k ets: digit ‘-‘ dig it (e.g. [2- 9] m eans ‘2’ or ‘3’ or
… or ‘9’)
o Ranges can be combined with other keys: e.g. [235- 8*] means ‘2’ or ‘3’ or ‘5’ or ‘6’ or ‘7’
or ‘8’ or ‘*’.
Element repetition: Any element can be repeated zero or more times by appending a period (‘.’ character) to the element.
Hence, “01.” matches “0”, “01”, “011”, “0111”, … etc.
Subsequence Substitution: A subsequence of keys (possibly empty) can be automatically replaced with a different subsequence
using an angle bracket notation: ‘<’ dialed-subsequence ‘:’ transmitted-subsequence ‘>’. So, for example, “<8:1650>xxxxxxx” would match “85551212” and transmit “16505551212”.
Intersequence Tones: An “outside line” dial tone can be generated within a sequence by appending a ‘,’ character between
digits. Thus, the sequence “9, 1xxxxxxxxxx” sounds an “outside line” dial tone after the user presses ‘9’, until the ‘1’ is pressed.
Number Barring: A sequence can be barred (rejected) by placing a ‘!’ character at the end of the sequence. Thus,
“1900xxxxxxx!” automatically rejects all 900 area code numbers from being dialed.

Interdigit Timer Master Override: The long and short interdigit timers can be changed in the dial plan (affecting a specific line) by
preceding the entire plan with the following syntax:
Long interdigit timer: ‘L’ ‘:’ delay-value ‘,’
Short interdigit timer: ‘S’ ‘:’ delay-value ‘,’
Thus, “L=8,( . . . )” would set the interdigit long timeout to 8 seconds for the line associated with this dial plan. And, “L:8,S:4,( . . . )” would override both the long and the short timeout values.
Local Timer Overrides: The long and short timeout values can be changed for a particular sequence starting at a particular
point in the sequence. The syntax for long timer override is: ‘L’ delay-value ‘ ‘. Note the terminating space character. The specified delay-value is measured in seconds. Similarly, to change the short timer override, use: ‘S’ delay-value <space>.
Pause: A sequence may require a n explicit pause of som e duration before continuing t o dial digits, in order
for the sequence to matc h. The syntax for this is sim ilar to the timer overr ide syntax: ‘P’ dela y-value <space>. The delay-value is measured in seconds.
This syntax allows f or the im plementation of Hot-Line and W arm-Line ser vices. T o achieve this , one sequence in the plan must start with a pause, with a 0 delay for a Hot Line, and a non-zero delay for a Warm Line.
Implicit sequences: The SPA implic itly appends the vertical code sequences entere d in the Regiona l parameter settin gs
to the end of the dial pla n f or both line 1 and line 2. Lik ewise, if En ab le_I P_ Dialing is enabled, then ip dialing is also accepted on the associated line.
Examples: The following dia l plan accepts only US-style 1 + area-code + local-number , with no restrictions on
the area code and number.
( 1 xxx xxxxxxx )
The following also allows 7-digit US-style dialing, and automatically inserts a 1 + 212 (local area code) in the transmitted number.
( 1 xxx xxxxxxx | <:1212> xxxxxxx )
For an office environment, the following plan requires a user to dial 8 as a prefix for local calls and 9 as a prefix for long distance. In either case, an “outside line” tone is played after the initial 8 or 9, and neither prefix is transmitted when initiating the call.

86
( <9,:> 1 xxx xxxxxxx | <8,:1212> xxxxxxx )
The following allows only placing international calls (011 call), with an arbitrary number of digits past a required 5 digit minimum, and also allows calling an international call operator (00). In addition, it lengthens the default short interdigit timeout to 4 seconds.
S:4, ( 00 | 011 xxxxx x. )
The following allows only US-style 1 + area-code + local-number, but disallows area codes and local numbers starting with 0 or 1. It also allows 411, 911, and opera tor cal ls (0).
( 0 | [49]11 | 1 [2-9]xx [2-9]xxxxxx )
The following allows US-style long distance, but blocks 9xx area codes.
( 1 [2-8]xx [2-9]xxxxxx )
The following allows arbitrary long distance dialing, but explicitly blocks the 947 area code.
( 1 947 xxxxxxx ! | 1 xxx xxxxxxx )
The following implements a Hot Line phone, which automatically calls 1 212 5551234.
( S0 <:12125551234> )
The following provides a Warm Line to a local office operator (1000) after 5 seconds, unless a 4 digit extension is dialed by the user.
( P5 <:1000> | xxxx )
