AudioCodes™ MP-100/104 Gateway

Quick Start Installation Guide

INTRODUCTION

This quick start guide contains information about how to install and configure the Audio-

Codes™ MP-100/104 Gateway. Although this guide covers both the MP-100 and MP-104

Gateways, the installation instructions apply to the MP-104. This gateway is the latest version

that is available through the Inter-Tel®CommSource™ division. For details about the MP-100,

refer to the latest version of the IP Devices Manual.

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

The following lists the system requirements for installing the AudioCodes MP-100/104 Gate-

way:

•Internet Protocol Resource Card (IPRC) firmware v1.3 or later

NOTE: To support Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) on the AudioCodes MP-100/104

Gateway, v1.5 or later firmware is required.

•Axxess®v7.0 or later

SYSTEM DATABASE PROGRAMMING

The IPRC firmware version determines how Axxess is programmed to support the gateways.

For details about system database programming, refer to the documents listed below.

If you are installing the gateway on a:

•V1.x firmware IPRC, see the latest version of the IP Devices Manual.

•V8.x firmware IPRC, see the Addendum to the v8.0 Installation and Maintenance Man-

ual.

AUDIOCODES MP-104 GATEWAY INSTALLATION

This section describes how to install and configure the AudioCodes MP-104 gateway, shown

below.

The AudioCodes MP-104 FXO gateway supports up to four loop start line (FXO - foreign

exchange office) ports. Although the MP-104 is similar to the MP-100, each gateway uses a

different switch type for configuring the device. The MP-100 uses DIP switches, and the MP-

104 uses a command line switch (-fb) (see page 7). For details about command-line switches,

refer to the MP-104 User’s Manual & Installation Guide.

The MP-104 on a v8.x IPRC firmware supports the peer-to-peer (P2P) audio feature. This fea-

ture allows certain IP and SIP devices to transmit and receive audio directly with each other.

With this feature, the audio is not transmitted or received through the system cabinet. This

reduces delay and removes the audio stream from the Time Division Mulitplex (TDM) high-

way.

To use P2P audio:

•The devices must be members of the same Network Group.

•The IPRC and IP devices must be upgraded to version 8.1 firmware. (SIP endpoints do

not require firmware upgrades.)

•The devices must terminate on an IPRC with v8.x firmware.

•There cannot be a NAT or firewall between the communicating devices.

•For SIP endpoints, the latest version of SIP Server (v1.1 or later) must be installed.

Because the devices are not using cabinet resources, devices connected in a P2P call cannot

use the following features:

•Agent Help

•Record-A-Call

•Station Monitor

The MP-104 on a v8.x IPRC firmware also does not support the following features:

•Tick Tone as an audio source for CO calls. This is normally used for features that

require audio sources, such as the Music-On-Hold feature.

•Pause digits. These digits are normally used to program a speed-dial or other digit

string.

NOTE: The MP-104 must be running software version 4.2 or later when connected to an IPRC

running version 8.1 firmware.

Quick Start Installation Outline

The following steps outline the MP-104 installation. For details, refer to the pages

shown in parentheses in each step.

To install the MP-104:

1. Unpack the box, and set up the MP-104 gateway device through the AudioCodes

BootP/TFTP Server program (see below).

2. Set up the MP-104 gateway device through the AudioCodes BootP/TFTP Server

program (see page 4).

3. Ensure you have added the -fb command to the ramMP10XFXO.cmp and this

file is selected as the Boot file (see page 7)

4. Reset the Server. Progress can be viewed in the BootP/TFTP Server window

(make sure it is not paused). See page 8.

5. Configure the MP-104 application through the AudioCodes MP-104 Web

administrator (see page 17).

6. Verify that the Call Agent IP address in the Advanced Configuration - Protocol

Management page matches the IPRC IP address (see page 11).

7. Configure the IPRC ports through the IPRC Administrative Session Web page

and verify the following:

• The gateway is configured as an MGCP gateway and endpoint (the first cir-

cuit), and each additional endpoint is attached to the correct circuit (see

page 17).

• All information is correct (MAC address, IP address, etc.).

• The connection is active in the Circuit Status page.

The AudioCodes MP-104 Gateway is now ready for connection to the CO.

Setting Up the MP-104

Follow the instructions below to set up the MP-104.

To set up the MP-104:

1. Attach the Ethernet cable to the ETH-1 RJ-45 connector to connect to your LAN. To

determine the configuration of the MP-104, connect the DC power supply and observe

the front panel light-emitting diodes (LEDs). For details on LED indicators, refer to the

MP-104 User’s Manual & Installation Guide that is on the CD-ROM. The back view of

an MP-104 is shown below.

2. Attach up to four phone lines (e.g., loop start lines) to the RJ-11 connectors.

NOTE: Up to 200 m (660 ft) of 24AWG twisted pair cable can be used for phone lines.

3. Create a new directory (e.g., Audiocodes MP_104) in the Windows Explorer on your

PC.

4. Detach and unzip the BootP and MP_104 zip files that are provided in the Inter-Tel

AudioCodes CD (part no. 827.9920) into this folder. You may want to create a sub-

folder for the BootP zip file within the same folder. The folder should look like the one

shown below.

5. Double-click Setup.exe (in the BootP folder) to install the AudioCodes BootP

server.

6. Copy the following files that you just unzipped and paste them into the BootP server

folder (under C:\Program Files\AudioCodes).

NOTE: The file names may be different depending on the version and date that the

files are created.

• BOOT file (e.g., ramMP10XFXO.cmp) — Contains a compressed, downloadable

software image file.

• INI file (e.g., MP1XXFXP_IT.ini) — Contains the default settings for the MP-

104.

• Coefficient file (e.g., MP1XX12-1-12khz-fxo.dat) — Contains a set of

parameters for the signal processor of the loop interface devices.

• Call Progress Tone file (e.g., call_progress_usa/uk.dat) — Contains the

definitions of the call progress tones that the MP-104 will detect/generate.

NOTE: The _usa files are for US systems, and the_uk files are for European sys-

tems.

7. Open the MP1XXFXO_IT.ini file by using a word processor, such as Notepad,

Microsoft®Word, etc. Add the IPRC IP address in the CallAgentIP field, as shown

below, and save and close the file as .ini file.

NOTE: Programming the IPRC IP address in the .ini file provides a more reliable

Call Agent ID setting for the MP-104, when files are loaded via the TFTP server. If not

modified in the .ini file, this value is overwritten every time the MP-104 files are

reloaded during a reset, using the value in this file. This .ini file is “read only” by

default, therefore, you must modify this characteristic to allow updating. To change the

attributes, right-click the file name in the Windows Explorer and open Properties.

Uncheck Read-only in the Attributes field and click OK.
