VoIP Setup Using the CLI

Initial setup of the VoIP feature using the CLI is as follows:

1. Obtain a reachable IP address from your Network Administrator for each Passport unit that is going to support VoIP.

A reachable IP address means there are no obstructions preventing a Passport unit at a remote end of the network from establishing TCP and UDP connections with the unit assigned this IP address. You can use the same IP address that is configured as the unit's Ethernet port IP address.

Passport 4400 units can have a maximum of 32 IP addresses configured (including multihomed IP addresses).

2. Add the IP addresses to the Passport units.

First, delete the factory default IP address, so that the Passport unit will accept new IP addresses:

CLI> delete ip address entry 3 127.0.0.1

Then, add the new IP addresses:

CLI> add ip address entry

Parameter	Range of Values	Required Action
<IfIndex>	Integer (1..255)	Enter an IfIndex number for this IP address.
<IPAddress>	IP address (n.n.n.n)	Enter the IP address.
<NetMask>	Subnet mask (255.255.255.0, 255.255.0.0, 255.0.0.0)	Enter the subnet mask according to the class of IP address assigned to this unit.
<BcastAddress>	IP address (n.n.n.n)	Enter the broadcast address assigned to this subnet.




Example:

CLI> add ip address entry 1 199.30.28.101 255.255.255.0 255.255.255.255

3. Set the Passport unit to IP routing:

CLI> define bridge global ipProtocol routed

4. Turn on RIP (Routing Information Protocol):

CLI> define ip base rip on

5. Define the NAC server:

CLI> add nac server

Parameter	Range of Values	Required Action
<IPAddress>	IP address (n.n.n.n)	Enter the IP address to be added to the NAC server (same IP address as assigned to the Passport unit for VoIP).
<Name>	"String" (0..50)	You can enter a name (alphanumeric characters within quotes) to identify this entry in the NAC server.
<Status>	enabled | disabled	Enter enabled.
<HelloTime>	Integer (30..180)	Enter the hello time (in seconds).
<Type>	primary | secondary	Enter primary.




CLI> set voice switchingProfile addServerSelect

Parameter	Range of Values	Required Action
<Profile>	Integer (1..60)	Enter the profile number.
<AddServerSelect>	nas | vncs	Enter nas.




Example command sequence:

CLI> add nac server 199.30.28.101 "NAC_SERVER" enabled 60 primary
CLI> set voice switchingProfile addServerSelect 1 nas

Continue on to step 6.
