European Environmental Directives
As a manufacturer of electrical and electronic equipment TANDBERG is responsible for compliance with the requirements in the European Directives 2002/96/EC (WEEE) and 2002/95/ EC (RoHS).
The primary aim of the WEEE Directive and RoHS Directive is to reduce the impact of disposal of electrical and electronic equipment at end-of-life. The WEEE Directive aims to reduce the amount of WEEE sent for disposal to landfill or incineration by requiring producers to arrange for collection and recycling. The RoHS Directive bans the use of certain heavy metals and brominated flame retardants to reduce the environmental impact of WEEE which is landfilled or incinerated.
TANDBERG has implemented necessary process changes to comply with the European RoHS Directive (2002/95/EC) and the European WEEE Directive (2002/96/EC).
Waste Handling
In order to avoid the dissemination of hazardous substances in our environment and to diminish the pressure on natural resources, we encourage you to use the appropriate take-back systems in your area. Those systems will reuse or recycle most of the materials of your end of life equipment in a sound way.
TANDBERG products put on the market after August 2005 are marked with a crossed-out wheelie bin symbol that invites you to use those take- back systems.
Please contact your local supplier, the regional waste administration, or http://www.tandberg.net/recycling if you need more information on the collection and recycling system in your area.
Information for Recyclers
As part of compliance with the European WEEE Directive, TANDBERG provides recycling information on request for all types of new equipment put on the market in Europe af ter August 13th 2005.
Please contact TANDBERG and provide the following details for the product for which you would like to receive recycling information:

Digital User Guides
TANDBERG is pleased to announce that we have replaced the printed versions of our User Guides with a digital CD version. Instead of a range of dif ferent user manuals, there is now one CD – which can be used with all TANDBERG products – in a variety of languages. The environmental benefits of this are significant. The CDs are recyclable and the savings on paper are huge. A simple web-based search feature helps you directly access the information you need. In addition, the TANDBERG video systems now have an intuitive on-screen help function, which provides a range of useful features and tips. The contents of the CD can still be printed locally, whenever needed.

Entrypoint Features at a Glance

TANDBERG ENTRYPOINT
USER GUIDE
About the Entrypoint
The TANDBERG Entrypoint enables sites on IP and UMTS Handsets to participate in meetings with each other with the quality and reliability found in all TANDBERG equipment. An Entrypoint system opens up a wide range of interactive video and call routing ser vices.
Entrypoint Capacity – Typical Scenarios
Due to the fixed bandwidth of UMTS video telephony every call will be limited to 64 Kbits/s. This offers a capacity of 30 simultaneous calls through an E1 PRI, 23 simultaneous calls through a T1 PRI, or 8 calls through a 4 × BRI. Due to audio transcoding (AMR to G.711) the bandwidth at IP side is 109 Kbits/s per session, 64 Kbits/s G.711 audio and 45 Kbits/s H.263 video calling 3G to H.323 or SIP endpoints. For calls between H.323 endpoints it is possible to set up 60 sessions between 768 and 192 kbit.

SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) is a lightweight protocol
for exchange of information in a decentralized, distributed environment.
XML (Extensible Markup Language) is a flexible way to create
common information formats and share both the format and the data on the World Wide Web, intranets, and elsewhere. This functionality can be used by management systems like the TANDBERG Management Suite to control the Entrypoint
HTTP Web-inter face for system management, call management
such as diagnostics and software uploads
HTTPS Hypertex t Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer is
a Web protocol that encrypts and decrypts user page requests as well as the pages that are returned by the Web ser ver. It uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) as a sublayer under its regular HT TP application layering. HTTPS uses port 443 instead of HTTP port 80 in its interactions with the lower layer, TCP/IP. SSL uses a 40-bit key size for the RC4 stream encryption algorithm, which is considered an adequate degree of encr yption for commercial exchange.

The Front and Rear Panels

TANDBERG ENTRYPOINT
USER GUIDE
About the Rear Panel LED Operation
G r e e n : Normal operation.
Red Alarm or Loss of Signal (LoS) indicates that there is no
signal and thus no framing information received. A defective or unplug ged PRI cable will produce the same effect.
Yellow Alarm or Remote Alarm Indicator (RAI) means that
the Entrypoint is receiving framing info, but in this framing info the other side tells the Entr ypoint that it is not reading the Gateway’s transmitted framing information. Typically, this may be a broken connector in the transmit (TX) part of the PRI cable. This could also indicate weak or noisy signal in the transmit (TX) part of the PRI cable.
Blue Alarm indicates that the received frames are not
synchronized properly.
No LED’s illuminate, indicates that layer one framing is
working (right protocol like for example EURO ISDN selected), however, there is a problem at layer 2 caused by for example a CRC4 configuration mismatch.
Entrypoint Start-up
To start the Entrypoint, simply connect the power cable, and press the power switch button at the back side to position 1.

About Default Services
The Entr ypoint is equipped with a number of persistent default services, i.e. ser vices stored in the on- board non-volatile memory. Therefore, these services will always be available after a system restart. The following persistent default services can be distinguished:
Direct Inwards Dialling (DID)
• – Defines a
one- on-one relation bet ween an inbound and an outbound number.
Dial Ex tension (IVR)
• – Also known as
Interactive Voice/Video Response (IVR), defines a relation between an inbound number and an interactive ser vice, i.e. a menu, via which an outbound ser vice can be connected to. The outbound service can be an audio or video service or an externally connected endpoint.
Menu ser vice
• – A menu based call
directo ry.
TMS Corporate Director y
• (phone book) – A
connection with the installed TANDBERG Management System (TMS) phone book is set up. Via the phone book menu an outbound call to another endpoint, e.g. a 3G Mobile, H.323 or SIP endpoint, can be set up.
DID – Direct Inward Dialling
Example Hotline
Entry details:
Enabled: Check Name: H.324m-H.323 Net Type: H.324m Prefix: 67890000 Suffix: Service Type: Direct Inwards Dialling
Arguments:
Net Type: H.323 AV Mode: Auto + fallback to audio Prefix: 51234 Suffix Use Remainder: No Allow For warding: No
When dialling number 67890000 this will match without leaving a remainder. The H.323 number that will be connected to will be: 51234 (construction: prefix). When dialling number 67894321 there will be no match. When dialling number 678900009876 one is also connected to the same H.323 endpoint, since there is a match on 67890000 and the remainder, i.e. 9876, is discarded. Note that Use Remainder is set to No!
Dial Extension (IVR) Example
Example
A 3G handset user calls a Dial Extension ser vice number.1. The Entr ypoint activates the 2. Welcome screen and sound. The Entr ypoint, when set in the dial plan, shows the DTMF Information screen.3. The 3G handset user enters the extension (H.324m, H.323 or SIP alias) followed by the 4. # (pound-sign) to indicate end of number. The Entr ypoint starts to call the endpoint and the 5. Connecting picture and sound are activated. When the call is connected audio and video are transmitted through the Entrypoint. 6.

USER GUIDE
USER GUIDE
About TMS Corporate Directory
The TMS Corporate Directory ser vice allows one Endpoint, i.e. a UMTS phone, H.323 or SIP, to dial another Endpoint directly, without knowing or having to (manually) enter the extension number via DTMF. TMS Corporate Directory is a menu based dial -in method, which combines a directory listing from TMS with IVR. In this mode the user can search in the global address book provided via TMS using the alphanumeric part of the keypad. The TMS Corporate Directory ser vice searches and displays entries matching the user input string.
Example of IVR – Using the Phone Book
Example 1
Pressing 1. 8 once, twice and three times in a row followed by a # sign, will result in a list with names star ting with a letter t, u or v respectively.
Pressing 2. 8 once, thereafter pressing 6 three times results in the search string to. Pressing 8 twice and 6 once, results in um. Pressing 8 three time
and 6 three times results in vo. If one wants to reach Tom Arne press 8 followed by three times 6, i.e. search string to.
To select the person you wish to dial, press the corresponding key to place a call to that person.3.
The star (
) key on the keypad is used as backspace.

About the Rear Panel LED Operation
In addition to the web page indications, the ISDN inter face also contains 4 LEDs, located at the the Entrypoint rear panel.
These LEDs indicate the following PRI status:
G r e e n : Normal operation
Red Alarm or Loss of signal (LOS) indicates that there is
no signal and thus no framing info received. A defect or unplug ging the PRI cable will produce the same effect.
Yellow Alarm or Remote Alarm Indicator (RAI) means that the
Entrypoint is receiving framing info, but in this framing info the other side tells the Entrypoint that it is not reading the Gateway’s transmitted framing info. Typically, this may be a broken connector in the transmit (TX) part of the PRI cable. This could also indicate weak or noisy signal in the transmit (TX) part of the PRI cable.
Blue Alarm indicates that the received frames are not
synchronized properly.
No LED’s illuminate, indicates that layer one framing is
working (right protocol like for example EURO ISDN selected), however there is a problem at layer 2 caused by for example a CRC4 configuration mismatch.

Within ISDN different bearer capabilities are used to signal the type of data (Voice, Data, H320, H.324M), which is used by telephony switches and other equipment to determine how to handle data or calls (compressing voice data neglect etc). The outgoing bearer capability sets the ISDN bearer capability for the outgoing telephone (voice only) and video telephone calls.
H.324M:
• This ITU standardized capability is
selected for outgoing calls by default.
UDI:
• In some situations the switch does
not accept calls which use the correct H.324M capability. This set ting makes it possible to use the Entrypoint in these situations via selecting UDI.
Prefix on National/International Numbers•
Specifies the prefix, which has to be added •
to National and International numbers, respectively.
The signalling specifies whether the
•
call is national or international. Since these prefixes are removed from inbound telephone numbers, the correct prefixes have to be added on call -backs.
These settings only apply if the Service providers network uses prefixes for national and international calls.
All incoming calls are accepted independent of their bearer capabilities, consequently audio calls are accepted as well.

H.323 Conguration
TANDBERG ENTRYPOINT
TANDBERG ENTRYPOINT
USER GUIDE
USER GUIDE
Select H.323 to access the

H.323 Conf iguration pane.

When registered with a gatekeeper, the
H.323 Status shows Registered, the gatekeeper’s IP address and the Port used (see also Status, H.323
Status).
Dialling out from IP to IP or ISDN, through
the Entr ypoint, requires the use of H.323 numbers (E.164 aliases and service prefixes). This means that the Entrypoint must be registered to a gatekeeper; select the H.323 menu item in the Configuration menu.
Save. When ready to store
the new settings, press
Save.
In case password is not set/configured/inserted,
the Entrypoint will still use the Authentication ID to register with the gatekeeper. However, when the Authentica­tion ID is left “unused”, the System Name field. will be used to register the Entrypoint with the gatekeeper instead. In case both the Authentication ID field and the System Name field are “unused” the Entrypoint can not be registered with the gatekeeper.
Mode. Enables the Entrypoint to register with a
gatekeeper or leave it unregistered, i.e. in direct mode. Make sure that System Name is always set in direct mode. When registered with a gatekeeper, the H.323 Status shows Registered, the gatekeeper’s IP address and the Port used.
When the registration fails, the Registration status will be rejected. Three cases can be distinguished:
Gatekeeper unreachable
• ; the Entrypoint’s H.323
stack returns this reject message in case the gatekeeper is down.
Duplicate alias
• ; a system with an identical name
has already been registered.
Authentication failure
• ; Authentication ID and/or
Authentication Password are incorrect.
Selecting direct mode will result in no gatekeeper registration; hence it is not possible to dial through the Entr ypoint via alias names. The H.323 Status shows Inactive.
IP Address.Enter the Gatekeeper IP address that
the Entr ypoint should register to. Leaving this empty will result in direct dialling without the use of aliases.
Authentication Mode is Off or Auto.

Authentication ID and Password. Enter the ID and pass-
word required to perform H.235 authentication at the Gatekeeper. To register with a Gatekeeper that requires authentication, an NTP ser ver has to be configured.
If the Gatekeeper is configured with an alternative Gatekeeper, the Status area may report a registration to the IP address
of the alternative Gatekeeper.

Default Services

About Default Services The Service Configuration Window
The Entr ypoint is equipped with a number of persistent default services, i.e. ser vices stored in the on- board non-volatile memory. Therefore, these services will always be available after a system restart. The following persistent default services can be distinguished:
Direct Inwards Dialling
• (DID). Defines a
one- on-one relation bet ween an inbound and an outbound number.
Dial Ex tension
• (IVR). Also known as
Interactive Voice/Video Response (IVR), defines a relation between an inbound number and an interactive ser vice, i.e. a menu, via which an outbound ser vice can be connected to. The outbound service can be an audio or video service or an externally connected endpoint.
Menu Ser vice
• . A menu based call directory.
TMS Corporate Director y
• (phone book). A
connection with the installed TANDBERG Management System (TMS) phone book is setup. Via the phone book menu an outbound call to another endpoint, e.g. a 3G Mobile, H.323 or SIP endpoint, can be setup.
To view all service entries select the Ser vice
Configuration menu from the Service tab.

About Dialplan Configuration

To view all dialplan configuration entries or create a new dial plan select the Dialplan configuration menu item from the Services tab.

In the dialplan: When the Net Type is set to All make sure that the prefix and/or suffix is a valid H.323 prefix.
Setting it to All means that the prefix will be registered to the gatekeeper.
Example:
An existing dialplan entry: name: Test 123 nettype: SIP prefix: 12@10.47.8.74” service: FOO
Is changed to: name: Test 123 nettype: All prefix: ”12@10.47.8.74” service: FOO
The H.323 registration will now fail, because”12@10.47.8.84” is not a valid H.323 prefix
Dialplan DetailsDialplan Configuration Window
To view the dialplan entry details, click on the dialplan entry or on View/Edit of the respective dial plan. As has been discussed on the previous page four default services can be distinguished:
Direct Inwards Dialling
•
Dial Ex tension (IVR)• Menu• TMS Corporate Director y (Phone book)•
For each default service the dialplan setup will be illustrated with an example on the following pages.
Note: Number matching is performed on dial
plans from the top to bottom.
Each dial plan has the following general fields, i.e. Dialplan entry details:
Enabled.
• If the box is checked the service
becomes available.
Name.
• The name of the dial plan as represented
in the Dialplan Configuration overview.
Net type.
• Inbound call net type; either H.324m,
H.323, SIP or All. All means that independent of the net type the call is accepted on a match with the predefined Prefix and Suf fix.
Prefix.
• Number to which the first part of the
inbound number (bnr) is matched. The prefixis specified in the dial plan entry. The prefix is stripped from the inbound number.
Suffix.
• Number to which the last part of the
inbound number (bnr) is matched. The suffix is specif ied in the dial plan entry. The suf fix is also stripped from the inbound number. The par t of the number which remains af ter stripping both prefix and suffix is called remainder (See also the “useremainder” option in a DID service).
Service.
• Select one of the services as
configured in the Services menu item (see the previous page for more on this).

Argument Details for the Default DID Service

DID Argument Details
TANDBERG ENTRYPOINT
TANDBERG ENTRYPOINT
USER GUIDE
USER GUIDE
Use Remainder. Specifies whether a particular part,
i.e. the remainder, of the inbound number will be used to form a part of the outbound number.
For a remainder to become non-zero a specified inbound Prefix has to match the first par t and/ or a specified inbound Suffix has to match the last part of an inbound number, however individually or combinations of both never fully match the complete inbound number.
Both inbound Prefix and Suf fix can be defined under
Dialplan entry details. When Use Remainder, is
active the previously mentioned “remainder” will be appended to and precede the Prefix and the Suffix of the outbound number, respectively. The outbound
Prefix and Suffix precede and append, respectively,
the “remainder” as to form the complete outbound numb er.
The latter prefix and suffix can be defined under
Arguments. Prefixes and suffixes are standard
parameters of dial plans.
Suppose, as an example, in the Dialplan entry details the inbound Prefix equals 9876 and inbound suf fix equals 54. In the Arguments settings the outbond prefix equals 1234. For an inbound connection to phone number 9876154 the Entrypoint will strip the prefix 9876 and the suffix 54 from the called number, hence the remainder equals 1. For the outbound connection the Entrypoint will add the prefix (configured in arguments) in front of the remainder, hence the outbound number equals 12341.
For the same settings with an inbound number 9876254 results in an outbound number 12342. In case the prefix and/or suffix fully match the inbound number the remainder will be empt y and the useremainder value will be ignored.
Allow for warding must be switched off
when using the Secretary functionality! The Secretary functionality will be discussed in the examples.
Suffix. Specifies the last par t, i.e. the part
appended to the remainder, of the Outbound number. The outbound suffix can be def ined under Arguments.
Allow forwarding. After call setup the
call is offloaded from the Entrypoint system, i.e. not routed via the Entrypoint system any longer, to free resources.
Use sub number. The sub number is a number
extension following the main number separated from the main number by an *. In this way a number plan behind a main number can be reached directly.
Prefix. Specifies the first par t, i.e. the par t
preceding the remainder, of the outbound number. The outbound prefix can be defined under Arguments.
No Media Sources can be added to DID service.
Net type. Either H.324m, H.323 or SIP of the
outbound call.
AV mode. This mode determines the outbound audio
and video call settings. It is either Audio Only, Audio +
Video, Auto(matic) no fallback to audio, Auto + fallback to audio and Auto + always fallback to audio.
In the
• Audio Only mode a voice call is being setup,
even when all endpoints support both audio and video capabilities. Note that this setting will be overruled in case Allow Forwarding is set to Yes and both endpoints possess audio and video capabilities.
In the
• Audio + Video mode a call is only being setup
when endpoints support both audio and video capabilities and a call with both these capabilities can be set up.
In the
• Auto mode a call is being setup according to
the capabilities of the endpoints. Of the latter, 3 versions can be distinguished: no fallback to audio, fallback to audio or always fallback to audio.
In the
• no fallback to audio case either an audio +
video or an audio only call is being setup, depending
on the capabilities choice of the initiating endpoint, i.e. when an audio + video call is being set up, whereas the receiving endpoint only supports audio, the call is terminated.
In the
• fallback to audio case capabilities can be
changed to an audio only call when the receiving endpoint suppor ts only audio, even when an audio +
video call is being set up by the initiating endpoint.
The
• always fallback to audio case is used in case
the telephony switch interferes or cannot handle capability renegotiation, therefore when an audio
+ video call fails automatically an audio call will be
set up.

When dialling number 67890000 this will match without leaving a remainder. The H.323 number that will be connected to will be: 51234 (construction: prefix). When dialling number 67894321 there will be no match. When dialling number 678900009876 one is also connected to the same H.323 endpoint, since there is a match on 67890000 and the remainder, i.e. 9876, is discarded.
Note that Use Remainder is set to No!

Some Dial Plan Examples (II)

TANDBERG ENTRYPOINT
USER GUIDE
USER GUIDE
Dial Extension (IVR) Examples
Interactive Video Response (IVR), also called extension dial-in, is an automated answering system that directs the call to the IP endpoint indicated by the caller. The caller uses telephone tones (DTMF) to enter the H.323/ SIP alias or ex tension.
IVR is useful in case a limited amount of numbers, e.g. ISDN PRI or BRI lines, is available.
An example shall be provided:
An endpoint user calls a Dial Extension 1.
service number.
The Entr ypoint activates the 2. Welcome
picture and sound.
The Entr ypoint, when set in the dial plan, 3.
shows the DTMF Information screen.
The endpoint user enters the extension 4.
(H.324m/H.323/SIP alias) followed by the # (pound -sign) to indicate end of number.
The Entr ypoint starts to call the endpoint 5.
and the Connecting picture and sound are activated.
When the call is connected audio and video 6.
are transmitted through the Entr ypoint (SIP to SIP calls and H323 to H323 calls will only go through the Entrypoint when Allow
Forwarding is set to No).
It is not possible to configure ISDN BRI
lines for special functions like dial out
only. The Entrypoint will automatically
select a free BRI line for H.323 to 3G
calls and possibly block a DID or an
IVR menu when the BRI lines have
different numbers.
Consequently, we strongly recommend
that all ISDN BRI lines have the same
number range.
Dial Extension (IVR) Dial Plan Examples
Example 4: 3G to H.323 IVR
Entry details: Enabled: Check Name: 3G-H.323 -IVR Net Type: H.324m Prefix: 123478 Suff ix: Service Type: Dial Extension Arguments: Net Type: H.323 A V Mode: Auto Prefix: Suff ix: Allow Forwarding: No
When dialling number 123478 on a 3G handset, one is connected to an IVR ser vice, from which an H.323 endpoint number can be entered.
Example 6: 3G to SIP IVR
Entry details: Enabled: Check Name: 3G-SIP-IVR Net type: H.324m Prefix: 1234790 Suff ix: Service type: Dial Ex tension Arguments: Net Type: SIP A V Mode: Auto Prefix: Suff ix: @<SIP_Prox y_Address or Registrar_Address> Allow Forwarding: No
When dialling number 1234790 on a 3G handset, one is connected to <UserInputNumber>@<SIP_Proxy_ Address or Registrar_ Address>, where UserInputNumber is the number keyed in by the user from within the IVR menu.
Example 5: 3G to H.323 via a Phone book
Entry details: Enabled: Check Name: 3G-H.323 - Phonebook Net Type: H.324m Prefix: 123489 Suff ix: Service Type: TMS Corporate Directory Arguments: Net Type: e.g. H.323 A V Mode: Auto Prefix: Suff ix: Allow Forwarding: No
When dialling number 123489 on a 3G handset, one is connected to an TMS Corporate Directory, from which an H.323 or SIP endpoint can be selected. Note that the Net Type to be selected in arguments is irrelevant, since the endpoint to be called is selected from a phone book.

USER GUIDE
USER GUIDE
The secretary service enables a caller (Alice) to be relayed to a callee (Bob) via a third party (Secretary).
Alice calls either via a DID, Dial Extension,
Menu or Phone book service a secretar y (No. 9876 in this example).
Make sure that for the inbound call party, i.e. Alice, the Allow Forwarding is set to Off, otherwise the call will be offloaded from the system, i.e. Alice is connected to the secretar y directly, which disables the influence of the Entrypoint system on this service.
The secretary relays the call to Bob by dialling Bob’s number followed by the pound sign, i.e.
#. In this example 12345# Now the call is
automatically redirected to Bob. In case for the outbound call Allow Forwarding is also set to Off Alice is connected to Bob via the Entrypoint box and therefore using resources, i.e. increasing processor load.
The processor load can be reduced by offloading the call from the system. Alice will be connected to Bob directly, without inter vention of the Entrypoint system, by setting Allow
Forwarding and Use Remainder to On for a
specially for this purpose configured outbound did service; let this DID service start with a Prefix (31 in this example). To connect Alice with Bob the secretary therefore has to dial Prefix + Bob’s number (3112345 in the example).

TMS Corporate Directory

The TMS Corporate Directory ser vice allows one Endpoint, i.e. a UMTS phone, H323 or SIP, to dial another Endpoint directly, without knowing or having to (manually) enter the extension number via DTMF.
TMS Corporate Director y is a menu based dial- in method, which combines a directory listing from TMS with IVR. In this mode the user can search in the global address book provided via TMS using the alphanumeric par t of the keypad.
The TMS Corporate Directory ser vice searches and displays entries matching the user input string. A maximum of 6 entries per page are displayed.
One can browse back and forth through the pages by pressing the
button or the # but ton, respectively. With the 0 but ton one can go
*
back to a previous stage in the ser vice or even back to the previous service when the phone book is entered via the entry point or dial extension service.
A menu option is available when text is present next to the respective button. In case access to multiple phone books is available, the user can select one in the f irst stage. In the second stage, either a search string can be entered by the user, or one can use DTMF to search alphabetically.
All names matching the search string will be displayed up to a maximum of 10 pages, where each page contains a maximum of 6 names. Pressing the # button will commence the search. Entering an empty search string, i.e. pressing the # button without entering any character, will show a two -stage alphabetical menu structure providing the first letter of the search string only.
In the third stage one of the matched names can be selected by pressing the number preceding the name. When multiple numbers are provided with the selected name one can select the number of choice and the dialling of the outbound number will be commenced immediately.
