*Important: When commissioning a base station for the first time via provisioning, the device may only be connected to the local network after setting up the base station, the handsets and the provisioning file. Provisioning cannot be initiated automatically if the base station is connected before then.
*A detailed description of first commissioning (via provisioning or manual) can be found under COMfortel WS-500S / WS-500M.
Requirements:
MAC address
Required for all transactions between PBX, base station and handset and for the assignment of provisioning data. The address is also required for base station synchronisation in the Integrator/DECT manager.
Name of the base
Freely selectable name. This is used to identify the base station in the PBX and in the Integrator/DECT Manager.
Password of the base station
Freely selectable password consisting of
at least 8, maximum 74 characters
at least one capital letter
at least one digit
at least one specialo character
This password is later used for registration in the Web Configurator of the base station.
When configuring the base station via provisioning, the password can only be used in the Web Configurator after provisioning has been completed.
Provisioning file
Selection of a provisioning file already created for this device type.
*Note: This and other base stations can also be assigned a configuration via the page Subscriber (scr.) > IP Provisioning > File management.
*Note: If a required file is not yet available here,a file must first be created on the page Subscriber (scr.) > IP Provisioning > File management. There, the file can then be assigned to one or more base stations.
Jitter buffer
Specifies the size of the jitter buffer in milliseconds (duration of the audio signals). In this time period RTP packets are cached (lower values = lower number, greater values = greater number). Delays in the transmission and loss of packets can be compensated that way.
Echo cancellation
Local echoes and reverberation effects during internal VoIP calls are compensated.
Allowing Update Messages
If the function is enabled and Online name search is activated, the name will be updated while the connection is being set up.
When transferring without announcement is activated and the function is enabled, the name as well as the phone number will be updated while the connection is being set up.
*Note: In the event of problems while the connection is being set up, this function should be disabled as a possible cause.
SIP alert info
Select the options for signalling call tones on end devices. For signalling, the Invite is sent to the end device to transfer the call types. Depending on the device, the call types are either fully converted into call tones, or converted in a simplified version. The following options are available here.
External and internal calls
Device uses this selection of call types to signal call tones.
External, internal, group, door and alarm calls
Device uses all the call types supported by the PBX to signal call tones.
This is the default setting when a subscriber is configured.
If problems occur with signalling on the end device, use one of the options listed above.
RTP encryption
Allows you to set an exception for this base station. The default is Adopt from Administration ->SIPS/SRTP internal (default).
Setting the exception is required if:
This base station does not support the settings in the PBX. This can lead to problems, e. g. when establishing a call.
You must bypass the PBX settings for testing or troubleshooting purposes.
*Note: The settings for this base station here in the Configuration Manager and the settings in the Web Configurator of the base station must match.
Adopt from Administration ->SIPS/SRTP internal (default)
The setting of the PBX applies for this base station.
Only encrypted
Example: SRTP is disabled in the PBX. The base station requires enabled SRTP.
Only unencrypted
Example: SRTP is enabled in the PBX. The base station does not support SRTP.
Format of the transmitted phone number
The PBX supports several formats to display the the country code of incoming calls on the display of the called handset, e. g. adapted to a small display size.
