Introduction

Use the following parameters to configure the analog with port-level configurations. 


FXS-Port 

ParameterDescription

SIP-Display-Name

Specifies the display name for outbound calling party name purposes.

SIP-User-Name

Identifies the analog phone connected to the FXS port. This value can be either a name or a number that callers use to reach the analog phone. This username is added to the Edge 8300's client list for call routing.

SIP-Authentication-Name

Specifies the name the FXS port uses to authenticate itself if the USE SIP Username for the SIP authentication box is not checked in Global Settings.

Password

Specifies the passwords to authenticate the SIP UA against the softswitch or outbound proxy.

Codec-Preference

Choose a codec type from the Codec Preference drop-down list. Edgemarc chooses this codec when offered by the far end regardless of the order of appearance in the SIP SDP.

This selects the codec that is used by all FXS ports for encoding analog data. The codec must be part of the negotiated codec list: G.711 uLaw, G.711 aLaw, G.729, G.728, G.726-16, G.726-24. G.726-32, G.726-40, G723-63, G723-53, G729E, and Global.

Use-Preferred-Codec-OnlySelect the Use preferred codec only checkbox to specify that only the preferred codec is used when the FXS places a call. The call is rejected if an incoming call does not have the preferred codec.

SIP-User-Domain

Enter a domain in this field to use a value other than the domain configured on the main SIP configuration page.

FXS-Port-Number

This is the port of the FXS channel.

Tx-Gain-To-FXS

Choose the analog transmit gain for the FXS port. The default setting of 0dB is appropriate for most installations; however, you can adjust the setting to interoperate with user endpoints such as phones, fax, or key systems. Range is -16dB to 16dB, default is 0dB.

Note

If dealing with echo on line, ensure a delta of at least 6DB between Tx and Rx gain settings.


Rx-Gain-From-FXS

Choose the analog to receive gain for the FXS port. The default setting of 0dB is appropriate for most installations; however, you can adjust the setting to interoperate with user endpoints such as phones, fax, or key systems. Range is -16dB to 16dB, default is 0dB.

Note
If dealing with echo on line, ensure a delta of at least 6DB between Tx and Rx gain settings.


Enable-Echo-Cancellation

Choose the setting for the echo cancellation. The default setting is True. Range of options are: True and False.

Enable-Call-Waiting

Select the Enable Call Waiting checkbox to enable call waiting at the port level. 

Enable-Call-Waiting-CallerId

Select the Enable Call Waiting CallerID checkbox to enable call-waiting caller-ID feature at port level.

Max-Number-Call-Waiting-Tone

Specifies the amount of Call Waiting Tones to play. The default value is 2. Range is 2 to 18. 

VAD-Enabled

Choose voice activity detection for the FXS port:

  • Enabled
  • Disabled
  • Global Setting—Allows global VAD settings to be applied at the port level.

Hotline-Number

Enter the number that a port calls automatically when it goes off-hook. If the field is empty, the feature is disabled.

CallerID-Block

Select the Restrict CallerID checkbox to enable endpoint call privacy - user provisioned on the port - in a trusted SIP network (RFC 3325). Caller Identity in From SIP header is restricted and is instead carried in P-Preferred-Identity SIP header. If the endpoint does not trust the proxy that it sends request to, leave the box un-checked.

Disable-Flash-Hook

Select the Disable Flash Hook checkbox and click Submit to disable Flash Hook on SIPUA FXS Ports.
