1. Overview

What is VS-GW1600-40S?

OpenVox VoxStack Series Analog Gateway is an open source asterisk-based Analog VoIP Gateway solution for SMBs and SOHOs. With friendly GUI and unique modular design, users may easily setup their customized Gateway. Also secondary development can be completed through AMI (Asterisk Management Interface).

There are three models with VoxStack series Analog Gateway, the VS-GW1202-8S, VS-GW1202-16S and VS-GW1600-40S. There are 8 ports in VS-GW1202-8S. The Modular Design Analog Gateways are ranging from 8 up to 40 ports, developed for interconnecting the PSTN networks with a wide selection of codecs and signaling protocol, including G.711A, G.711U, G.729, G.722, G.723, ILBC and GSM to quickly reduce communication expenses and maximize cost-savings. With the unique design of the VoxStack gateway, it can support hot-swap. Users can simply add or remove the modules for hardware expansion or exchange.

The VoxStack gateway designs with 2 LAN switch boards to provide stack ability on the hardware upgrade. You can choose either of them.

The Analog gateway will be 100% compatible with Asterisk, Elastix, trixbox, 3CX, FreeSWITCH SIP server and VOS VoIP operating platform.

You can click button to add a new SIP endpoint, and if you want to modify existed endpoints, you can click  button.

Main Endpoint Settings

There are 3 kinds of registration types for choose. You can choose “Anonymous, Endpoint registers with this gateway or This gateway registers with the endpoint”.

 

You can configure as follows:

If you set up a SIP endpoint by registration “None” to a server, then you can’t register other SIP endpoints to this server. (If you add other SIP endpoints, this will cause Out-band Routes and Trunks confused.)

 

Figure 4-1-2 Anonymous Registration

 

For convenience, we have designed a method that you can register your SIP endpoint to your gateway, thus your gateway just work as a server.

 

Figure 4-1-3 Register to Gateway

 

Also you can choose registration by “This gateway registers with the endpoint”, it’s the same with

 

“None”, except name and password.

 

Figure 4-1-4 Register to Server

 

Table 4-1-1 Definition of SIP Options

 

Options Definition
NameA name which is able to read by human. And it’s only used for user’s reference.
UsernameUser Name the endpoint will use to authenticate with the gateway.
Password

Password the endpoint will use to authenticate with the gateway. Allowed

characters.

Registration

None---Not registering;

Endpoint registers with this gateway---When register as this type, it means

the GSM gateway acts as a SIP server, and SIP endpoints register to the gateway;

This gateway registers with the endpoint---When register as this type, it means

the GSM gateway acts as a client, and the endpoint should be register to a SIP server;

Hostname or IP Address

IP address or hostname of the endpoint or 'dynamic' if the endpoint has a dynamic

IP address. This will require registration.

Transport

This sets the possible transport types for outgoing. Order of usage, when the

respective transport protocols are enabled, is UDP, TCP, TLS. The first enabled

transport type is only used for outbound messages until a Registration takes place.

During the peer Registration the transport type may change to another supported

type if the peer requests so.

NAT Traversal

Addresses NAT-related issues in incoming SIP or media sessions.

No---Use Rport if the remote side says to use it.

Force Rport on---Force Rport to always be on.

Yes---Force Rport to always be on and perform comedia RTP

handling.

Rport if requested and comedia---Use Rport if the remote side

says to use it and perform comedia RTP handling.

Append user=phone to URIWhether or not to add ‘; user=phone’ to URIs that contain a valid phone number.
Add Q.850 Reason HeadersWhether or not to add Reason header and to use it if it is available.
Honor SDP Version

By default, the gateway will honor the session version number in SDP packets

and will only modify the SDP session if the version number change. Turn this

option off to force the gateway to ignore the SDP session version number and

treat all SDP data as new data. This is required for devices that send non-standard

SDP packets (observed with Microsoft OCS). By default this option is on.

(unless enabled in peers or users). Default is enabled.

Allow Promiscuous Redirects

Whether or not to allow 302 or REDIR to non-local SIP address. 
Note that promiscredir when redirects are made to the local system will cause

loops since this gateway is incapable of performing a "hairpin" call.

Max ForwardsSetting for the SIP Max-Forwards header (loop prevention).

Enable DNS SRV lookups on outbound calls Note: the gateway only uses

the first host in SRV records Disabling DNS SRV lookups disables the ability

to place SIP calls based on domain names to some other SIP users on the

Internet specifying a port in a SIP peer definition or when dialing outbound

calls with suppress SRV lookups for that peer or call.

Format:192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0 or 172.16.0.0./12. A list of IP address or IP

ranges which are located inside a NATed network.

This gateway will replace the internal IP address in SIP and SDP messages with

the external IP address when a NAT exists between the gateway and other endpoints.

Local Network List

Local IP address list that you added.

Subscribe Network Change Event

Through the use of the test_stun_monitor module, the gateway has the ability to detect

when the perceived external network address has changed. When the stun_monitor is

installed and configured, chan_sip will renew all outbound registrations when the monitor

detects any sort of network change has occurred. By default this option is enabled, but

only takes effect once res_stun_monitor is configured. If res_stun_monitor is enabled and

you wish to not generate all outbound registrations on a network change, use the option

below to disable this feature.

This filed MUST NOT contain spaces.

Disallowed SIP Methods

The external hostname (and optional TCP port) of the NAT.

Shrink Caller ID

The shrinkcallerid function removes '(', ' ', ')', non-trailing '.', and '-' not in

square brackets. For example, the caller id value 555.5555 becomes

5555555 when this option is enabled. Disabling this option results in no

modification of the caller id value, which is necessary when the caller id

represents something that must be preserved. By default this option is on.

Security

 

 

Table 4-3-5 Instruction of Security

 

Options

Definition

Match Auth Username

If available, match user entry using the 'username' field from the
authentication line instead of the 'from' field.

Realm

Realm for digest authentication. Realms MUST be globally unique

according to RFC 3261. Set this to your host name or domain name.

Use Domain as Realm

Use the domain from the SIP Domains setting as the realm. In this

case, the realm will be based on the request 'to' or 'from' header

and should match one of the domain. Otherwise, the configured

'realm' value will be used.

Always Auth Reject

When an incoming INVITE or REGISTER is to be rejected, for any

reason, always reject with an identical response equivalent to valid

username and invalid password/hash instead of letting the requester

know whether there was a matching user or peer for their request.

This reduces the ability of an attacker to scan for valid SIP usernames.

This option is set to 'yes' by default.

Authenticate Options Requests

Enabling this option will authenticate OPTIONS requests just like INVITE

requests are. By default this option is disabled.

Allow Guest Calling

Allow or reject guest calls (default is yes, to allow). If your gateway is

connected to the Internet and you allow guest calls, you want to check

which services you offer everyone out there, by enabling them in the

default context.

 

 

Media

Table 4-3-6 Instruction of Media

 

Options

Definition

Premature Media

Some ISDN links send empty media frames before the call is in ringing or

progress state. The SIP channel will then send 183 indicating early media

which will be empty - thus users get no ring signal. Setting this to "yes" will

stop any media before we have call progress (meaning the SIP channel

will not send 183 Session Progress for early media). Default is 'yes'. Also

make sure that the SIP peer is configured with progressinband=never.

In order for 'noanswer' applications to work, you need to run the progress()

application in the priority before the app.
