Text Conventions

Table 1 lists text formats and describes how they are used in this guide.

Audience

This guide is written for installers and system administrators. It assumes that you are

familiar with networks and VoIP, both in theory and in practice. This guide also assumes

that you have ordered your IP PBX equipment or service and selected which PBX features

you want to implement. This guide references specific IP PBX equipment or services only

for features or settings that have been designed for a specific service. Please consult your

equipment supplier or service provider for recommended switches, routers, and firewall

and NAT traversal settings, and so on.

As the VSP861 SIP deskset becomes certified for IP PBX equipment or services, VTech

may publish interop guides for those specific services. The interop guides will recommend

second-party devices and settings, along with VSP861-specific configurations for optimal

performance with those services. For the latest updates, visit our website at

businessphones.vtech.com.

VSP861 SIP deskset. Please read this guide before attempting to configure the VSP861.

Some of the configuration tasks described in this chapter are duplicated in the Web User

Interface (WebUI) described in the next chapter, but if you need to assign static IP

addresses, they must be set at each device.

About the VSP861 deskset

The VTech VSP861 SIP deskset is a business phone designed to work with popular SIP

telephone (IP PBX) equipment and services. Once you have ordered and configured your

SIP equipment or service, the VSP861 enables you to make and receive calls as you would

with any other business phone. The VSP861 provides calling features like hold, transfer,

conferencing, speakerphone, speed-dial numbers and one-touch directory access.

The VSP861 deskset features include:

Speakerphone, headset, hold and mute

Up to 8 SIP account registrations

Up to 10 active SIP sessions

3-way conferencing

30 programmable feature keys

Message Waiting alert LED

Dual GigE Ethernet ports

Power over Ethernet enabled

DECT cordless headset and cordless handset support

For information about registering a cordless headset, see the VSP861 Deskset

User's Guide. For information about registering a cordless handset, see the

VSP601 Handset Quick Start Guide.

Micro SD card slot for call recording, network traces, system logging, firmware

updates and configuration file backup and updates.

1000-entry Call Log

There are two network ports, known as the Ethernet port and PC port, at the back of the

VSP861. The Ethernet port allows the VSP861 deskset to connect to the IP PBX. The PC

port is for another device such as a personal computer to connect to the Ethernet network

through the VSP861.

You can configure the VSP861 using the menus on the phone, a browser-based interface

called the WebUI, or an automatic provisioning process (see “Provisioning Using

Configuration Files” on page 132). The WebUI enables you to configure the VSP861 using

a computer that is connected to the same Local Area Network. The WebUI resides on the

VSP861, and may get updated with firmware updates.

The VSP861 SIP deskset supports intercom and call transfers between system extensions

and can connect you and two other parties on the same conference call.

The VSP861 has 30 programmable feature keys. You can program these keys for quick

dial, busy lamp field, line access or any of the functions described in “Programmable

Feature Keys” on page 15.

VSP861 Administrator and Provisioning Manual

Network Requirements

A simple VSP861 SIP deskset installation example is shown in Figure 1. A switched

network topology is recommended for your LAN.

The office LAN infrastructure should use Cat.-5/Cat.-5e cable.

The VSP861 requires a wired connection to the LAN. However, wireless connections from

your LAN to other devices (such as laptops) in your office will not impede performance.

A Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server is recommended and must be on

the same subnet as the VSP861 desksets so that IP addresses can be auto-assigned. In

most cases, your network router will have a DHCP server. By default, the VSP861 has

DHCP enabled for automatic IP address assignment.

If no DHCP server is present, you can assign a static IP to the VSP861. You can assign a

static IP address using the VSP861 menu. Go to Admin settings > Network setting >

IPv4 or IPv6 > Static (from the list). If you do not have a DHCP server or do not manually

assign static IPs, you will not be able to access the WebUI and/or enable automatic time

updates from an NTP server.

A DNS server is recommended to resolve the path to the Internet and to a server for

firmware and configuration updates. If necessary, the system administrator can also

download upgrade files and use the WebUI to update the VSP861 firmware and/or

configuration settings manually.

Figure 1. VSP861 Installation Example

Some DHCP servers have default settings that limit the number of network IP

addresses assigned to devices on the network. You should log in to your server

to confirm that the IP range is sufficient.

Introducing the VSP861 20 Back to Contents

VSP861 Administrator and Provisioning Manual

VSP861 Configuration Methods

You can configure the VSP861 using one of the following methods:

From the VSP861 itself, using the menus. The VSP861 menus are best suited to

configuring a few settings, perhaps after the initial setup has been done. For

administrators, the settings available on the VSP861 menus include network

settings, account settings, and provisioning settings. See “Using the Admin

Settings Menu” on page 33. Many of the settings accessible on the VSP861 are

most useful for end users. Through the menu, they can customize the screen

appearance, sounds, and manage calls. For more information, see the VSP861

User Guide.

The Web User Interface, or WebUI, which you access using your Internet browser.

See “Using the WebUI” on page 45. The browser-based interface is easy to

navigate and best suited to configuring a large number of VSP861 settings at once.

The WebUI gives you access to every setting required for configuring a single

device. You can enter service provider account settings on the WebUI, configure

the programmable keys, and set up provisioning, which will allow you to

automatically and remotely update the VSP861 after initial configuration.

Provisioning using configuration files. Working with configuration files is the best

way to configure multiple phones. There are several methods available to enable

the VSP861 to locate and upload the configuration file. For example, you can

enable the VSP861, when it starts up or reboots, to check for the presence of a

configuration file on a provisioning server. If the configuration file is new or has

been modified in any way, the VSP861 automatically downloads the file and

applies the new settings. For more information, see “Provisioning Using

Configuration Files” on page 132.
