Warning: The device is supplied as a sealed unit and must only be serviced by

qualified service personnel.

Notes: The following naming conventions are used throughout this manual, unless

otherwise specified:

• The term device refers to the MediaPack series gateways.

• The term MediaPack refers to MP-124, MP-118, MP-114, and MP-112.

• The term MP-11x refers to the MP-118, MP-114, and MP-112 devices.

Note: Where ‘network’ appears in this manual, it means Local Area Network (LAN),

Wide Area Network (WAN), etc. accessed via the device’s Ethernet interface.

Note: The terms IP-to-Tel and Tel-to-IP refer to the direction of the call relative to

the AudioCodes device. IP-to-Tel refers to calls received from the IP network

and destined to the PSTN/PBX (i.e., telephone connected directly or indirectly

to the device); Tel-to-IP refers to calls received from the PSTN/PBX and

destined for the IP network.

Notes:

• FXO (Foreign Exchange Office) is the interface replacing the analog

telephone and connects to a Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN)

line from the Central Office (CO) or to a Private Branch Exchange (PBX).

The FXO is designed to receive line voltage and ringing current, supplied

from the CO or the PBX (just like an analog telephone). An FXO VoIP

device interfaces between the CO/PBX line and the Internet.

• FXS (Foreign Exchange Station) is the interface replacing the Exchange

(i.e., the CO or the PBX) and connects to analog telephones, dial-up

modems, and fax machines. The FXS is designed to supply line voltage

and ringing current to these telephone devices. An FXS VoIP device

interfaces between the analog telephone devices and the Internet.

1.1 Gateway Description

The MediaPack series

analog Voice-over-IP (VoIP) Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) media

gateways (hereafter referred to as device) are cost-effective, cutting edge technology

products. These stand-alone analog VoIP devices provide superior voice technology for

connecting legacy telephones, fax machines and Private Branch Exchange (PBX) systems

to IP-based telephony networks, as well as for integration with new IP-based PBX

architectures. These devices are designed and tested to be fully interoperable with leading

softswitches and SIP servers.

The device is best suited for small and medium-sized enterprises (SME), branch offices, or

residential media gateway solutions. The device enables users to make local or

international telephone and / or fax calls over the Internet between distributed company

offices, using their existing telephones and fax. These calls are routed over the existing

network ensuring that voice traffic uses minimum bandwidth. The device also provides SIP

trunking capabilities for Enterprises operating with multiple Internet Telephony Service

Providers (ITSP) for VoIP services.

The device supports the SIP protocol, enabling the deployment of VoIP solutions in

environments where each enterprise or residential location is provided with a simple media

gateway. This provides the enterprise with a telephone connection (i.e., RJ-11 connector)

and the capability to transmit voice and telephony signals over a packet network.

The device provides FXO and/or FXS analog ports for direct connection to an enterprise's

PBX (FXO), and / or to phones, fax machines, and modems (FXS). Depending on model,

the device can support up to 24 simultaneous VoIP calls. The device is also equipped with

a 10/100Base-TX Ethernet port for connection to the network. The device provides LEDs

for indicating operating status of the various interfaces.

The device is a compact unit that can be easily mounted on a desktop, wall, or in a 19-inch

rack.

The device provides a variety of management and provisioning tools, including an HTTP-

based embedded Web server, Telnet, and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

The user-friendly, Web interface provides remote configuration using any standard Web

browser (such as Microsoft™ Internet Explorer™).

1.2 MediaPack Features

This section provides a high-level overview of some of the many device supported features.

For more updated information on the device's supported features, refer to the latest MP-11x

& MP-124 SIP Release Notes.

1.2.1 MP-11x Hardware Features

The MP-11x series hardware features include the following:

 Combined FXS / FXO devices (four FXS and four FXO ports on the MP-118; two FXS

and two FXO ports on the MP-114).

 MP-11x compact, rugged enclosure -- only one-half of a 19-inch rack unit, 1 U high.

 Lifeline - provides a wired phone connection to the PSTN line that becomes active

upon a power or network failure (combined FXS/FXO devices provide a Lifeline

connection that's available on all FXS ports).

 LEDs on the front panel that provide information on the device's operating status and

the network interface.

 Reset button on the rear panel for restarting the MP-11x and for restoring the MP-11x

parameters to their factory default settings.

Version 5.6 17 November 2008

SIP User's Manual 1. Overview

1.2.2 MP-124 Hardware Features

The MP-124 hardware features include the following:

 MP-124 19-inch, 1U rugged enclosure provides up to 24 analog FXS ports, using a

single 50-pin Telco connector.

 LEDs on the front panel that provide information on the device's operating status and

the network interface.

 Reset button on the front panel for restarting the MP-124 and for restoring the MP-124

parameters to their factory default settings.

1.3 SIP Overview

Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is an application-layer control (signaling) protocol used on

the gateway for creating, modifying, and terminating sessions with one or more participants.

These sessions can include Internet telephone calls, media announcements, and

conferences.

SIP invitations are used to create sessions and carry session descriptions that enable

participants to agree on a set of compatible media types. SIP uses elements called Proxy

servers to help route requests to the user's current location, authenticate and authorize

users for services, implement provider call-routing policies and provide features to users.

SIP also provides a registration function that enables users to upload their current locations

for use by Proxy servers. SIP implemented in the gateway, complies with the Internet

Engineering Task Force (IETF) RFC 3261 (refer to http://www.ietf.org).

SIP User's Manual 2. Configuration Concepts

2 Configuration Concepts

You can configure the device's parameters (including upgrading the software, and

uploading configuration and auxiliary files), using the following tools:

 An HTTP-based Embedded Web Server (Web interface), using any standard Web

browser (described in ''Web-based Management'' on page 21).

 A configuration file referred to as the ini file (refer to ''ini File Configuration'' on page

231).

 Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) browser software (refer to the Product

Reference Manual).

 AudioCodes’ Element Management System (refer to AudioCodes’ EMS User’s Manual

or EMS Product Description).

Note: To initialize the device by assigning it an IP address, a firmware file (cmp),

and a configuration file (ini file), you can use AudioCodes' BootP/TFTP utility,

which accesses the device using its MAC address (refer to the Product

Reference Manual).
