System & Network Requirements
System Requirements
• AltiWare OE 5.0A Update 3 or higher
Note: A lower version of AltiWare may cause the IP phone to lose
several advanced features, resulting in use as a basic H.323
phone.
• AltiGen OE 5.0A GateKeeper or higher (to support plug and play
functionality)
Network Requirements
• Network connection — the IP phone must have TCP/IP connection to
the related AltiWare system
Important: Make sure an Ethernet switch is used, rather than a hub,
in the corporate LAN. An Ethernet switch with QoS
support is preferred.
• DHCP Server (to get an IP address dynamically, when necessary)
• TFTP Server (to update the IP phone firmware, when necessary)
• GateKeeper (for plug and play feature)
AltiAdmin/ACM Admin Configuration
Requirements
• The IP 710 requires an IP extension to be enabled in AltiAdmin to
handle call processing. Refer to the “Setting Up IP Extensions” chapter
in the AltiWare OE/ACC System Installation & Administration
Manual or ACM System Administration Manual for detailed
instructions on how to set up an IP extension to manage the IP phone.
• The IP phone settings must be pre-configured in AltiAdmin/ACM
Admin before setting up configuration for the IP 710.
IP 710 Manual 8
AltiGen IP Phone Service
AltiGen IP Phone Service is installed together with AltiWare and connects
to AltiWare through enhanced AltiLink+ protocol on behalf of IP 710
phones. This service must be running for the IP 710 to operate. If IP Phone
Service stops while the IP 710 is on a call, the call will be disconnected.
Plug and Play Feature
The IP 710 supports a plug and play feature when running AltiWare. When
the phone is first booted up, this feature enables the phone to automatically
discover the AltiServ IP address, instead of having to program the phone
manually. Refer to step 7 on page 16 for requirements and setup.
Note: The plug and play feature requires AltiGateKeeper Discovery and
a single gatekeeper on the LAN.
Basic Mode
The IP 710 operates in Basic mode if it fails to register with AltiWare
during the startup mode. When in Basic mode, the IP phone’s LCD display
shows (BASIC) IDLE. No AltiWare switching features are available in
this operating mode. However, the phone user can enter a destination IP
address followed by #, and make an outgoing call through the IP network
to reach AltiWare or another IP 710 phone. Also, the IP phone can accept
incoming calls originating from AltiWare or another IP 710 phone.
Normal Operation
In normal operating mode, the IP 710 should have been registered with the
phone server and logged in as an extension. The time and extension appear
in the LCD screen and all phone features are enabled.
Note: To make the IP 710 work in normal operating mode, open the
firewall port 10032 for the phone server. Refer to the AltiWare OE/
ACC System Installation & Administration Manual or ACM
System Administration Manual for information on other firewall
ports for H.323.

Installation
This chapter describes local installation and remote installation of the
IP 710 phone.
Important Notes for Plug and Play:
The plug and play feature enables the IP 710 phone to automatically
discover the AltiServ IP address.
• To use the plug and play feature, the user’s IP phone must be on the
LAN with AltiServ.
• There can be only one AltiServ on the LAN.
• An instance of AltiGen GateKeeper needs to be running on the LAN
and configured to point to the AltiWare system.
• GateKeeper Auto Discovery uses broadcast UDP packets, which work
in the LAN or VPN environment, but not through the public IP
network.
• The DHCP server must be up and running.
Local Installation
1. Gather network settings information (this information will be needed
to configure the IP 710):
• AltiWare server IP address
If you are not using GateKeeper Auto Discovery – needed for plug
and play – you will have to manually configure the AltiServ IP
address on your IP phones.
• Is DHCP used?
If DHCP is not used, obtain the IP 710 phone’s IP address from the
system administrator.
• Firewall information
See “Firewall Considerations” on page 48, if a firewall is being
used in the AltiWare environment.
IP 710 Manual 10
2. Ensure that there are enough IP addresses for all IP phones and that
enough physical extension licenses are available.
3. If using plug and play, ensure that there is an available virtual
extension with the IP extension feature enabled, and that dynamic IP
address is selected.
4. In AltiAdmin/ACM Admin, create an extension with Enable IP
Extension checked.
5. Configure the IP 710 phone in AltiAdmin/ACM Admin:
Select AltiGen IP Phone Configuration from the AltiAdmin/ACM
Admin Management menu.
IP 710 Manual 11
This opens the IP Phone Configuration window:
The left side of the IP Phone Configuration window displays all the
IP phones that have been set up in the system. The following table
describes the parameters on the General tab:
Parameter Description
General
Info Lets you specify the IP address of the AltiServ system
the IP 710 phone is connected to. The version of
software associated with AltiServ is automatically
displayed in the Version field.
To allow the extension user to have password-
protected configuration functionality from the phone
itself, check the Enable Configure Password check
box and assign a numerical password. When the
extension user attempts to configure features, the user
will need to enter the assigned password to proceed.
H.323 Lets you set the Jitter Buffer—the delay used to
buffer voice packets received from the IP network—in
milliseconds. The Jitter Buffer should be adjusted
according to the WAN bandwidth allocated to data
traffic.
To allow NAT support for the IP extension, check the
Enable NAT check box.
IP 710 Manual 12
Note: The Apply To button works with the following parameters:
General, H.323, TFTP (Server field only; Reset IP Phone and
Boot Download options cannot be applied to multiple
extensions), and Debug. This works only when the IP 710 is
operating in Basic mode.
Time
Display •Offset - a per phone-based configuration, allows
the phone to display a different time, based on
location.
•Format - a per-phone-based configuration, allows
the phone to display 24 hour or 12 hour (AM/PM).
Trunk
Access
Code
• Lets you set the digit required to enable a user to
return an outside call from the Call Log.
• The default trunk access code is the route access
code, if it is set in AltiAdmin/ACM Admin.
• This setting also appears on the phone’s SYSTEM
menu.
TFTP Lets you assign the TFTP Server to which the IP phone
can connect for updating firmware when necessary.
Enter the IP address of the TFTP Server in the Server
field.
To update IP phone image, the administrator can
check the Reset IP Phone and Boot Download check
box options to reset and download image to update the
phone.
Debug When enabled, allows the IP 710 phone to connect to
Telnet for debugging.

Dialing an IP Number Directly from the IP 710
To dial an IP number directly from the IP 710 phone set, enter the IP
address, using the * key to enter periods and followed by the # key.
Note: This works only when the IP 710 is operating in Basic mode.
If the IP 710 is configured for a public IP address, you can call other public
IP address devices. If the IP 710 is configured for a private IP address, you
can call other private IP address devices that you can “see” or that are on
your subnet.
2Feature available only on systems with Triton Analog Extension board.
