Chapter 1: Introduction

What is the Quintum Tenor Configuration Manager? Through Tenor Configuration Manager, you can configure all parameters of the Tenor unit, including all call-related functions. This application was designed to run on any PC running Windows 2000 or Windows XP (see system requirements in Chapter 2), and s the following Quintum products: • Tenor DX • Tenor AX • Tenor AS • Tenor AF • Tenor BX • Tenor CMS • Tenor Call Relay SP • Tenor CR 60 To access the Tenor unit, you simply designate the IP address of the Tenor product you would like to configure or monitor.

Tenor Configuration Manager The Tenor Configuration Manager is a -friendly application that enables you to configure Quintum products over an IP network by designating the IP address of the Tenor product you want to configure. There are four main configuration options in the system: Systemwide Configuration, Ethernet Configuration, VoIP Configuration, and Circuit Configuration. • Systemwide Configuration. The configuration items under Systemwide Configuration include chassis and dial plan information. • Ethernet Configuration. The Ethernet Configuration menu includes options for configuring Ethernet interface information as well as Static IP, NAT IP, and Filter IP information. • VoIP Configuration. VoIP Configuration enables you to configure the parameters that pertain to VoIP element status, such as Gateway, Gatekeeper, Border Element, and Signaling Group. • Circuit Configuration. Through the Circuit Configuration options, you are able to set autoswitch options, signaling, and trunk and line routing information. • Phone/DS1 Configuration. Enables you to specify line configuration for either analog or digital, depending upon the unit to which you are connected. • DSP Configuration. Enables you to specify the device and enter a description. Each menu tree item corresponds to a configuration window. When you click on a menu tree item, the corresponding configuration window is displayed in the main display area. If a menu tree option is “label” only, the menu tree expands to offer the sub-menu options. Once you configure the desired information, you can “submit” the data to the designated unit.

Features and Capabilities Network Management Ease of Use Tenor Configuration Manager enables you to perform tasks from a single software source. The application is accessible through web-based installation, which makes network management not only flexible, but easy to use. Through the Tenor Configuration Manager, you can configure such Tenor parameters as setting directory numbers and asg signaling groups. Once you configure a specific IP address and Tenor Server Port and submit the changes, the configuration is saved to the database as a “profile.” Any time you to that unit, the profile for that unit is displayed.

Easy Installation/Access Installation is complete in one step. Enter the applicable web address, and you will be guided through the self-installation process. All you need is a name, , and valid IP address. Once software installation is complete, launch the Tenor Configuration Manager and begin configuring a unit.

Simple Windows-based menu tree In both applications, a menu tree appears on the left side of the screen. Click on the desired menu option and a window relating to that item pops up. If there are sub-menu items available, they are also listed. From there, you can configure or monitor all desired options. In addition, through the Tenor Configuration Manager, when you right-click on any menu item, a list of available commands is displayed, such as Add an option and Help.

Advanced Help System For Tenor Configuration Manager, there is a comprehensive Help system. At any time, you can click on any field and Help will pop up for that specific field. In addition, you can search through the Help system for topics or general field information. The Help system provides specific definitions for each one configurable/viewable item. The Help system should be used as the primary documentation source to all product features.

Configuration made simple Add Number Directories in one step. Through the Tenor Configuration Manager, adding an entry to a number directory (e.g., By Number Directory, Hunt LDN Directory, or Hop-off Number Directory) is a simple matter: Enter the desired name and click Add. The entry automatically appears as part of the Number Directory. Figure 1-2 Add Number Directories - Sample Window

Associate Routing Groups. You can easily select a group of channels to associate with a Signaling Group (CAS or ISDN) or Routing Group. Figure 1-3 Associate Routing Group - Signaling

Unique board configuration. The Tenor Configuration Manager automatically determines the type of unit connected to the system (e.g., Tenor CMS system, Tenor AS, etc.). As a result, unique board configuration windows are displayed for the specific unit type so you can configure items such as interface type, Layer 1 parameters, and Routing/Signaling/Channel group configuration. For slotted systems, the Tenor Configuration Manager automatically reads the board types installed in the unit (e.g., DS1, T1/E1, System Controller, or DSP). From the menu on the left, click on the applicable interface and the configuration window for that interface is displayed. For example, if a T1 card is inserted in the slot, the Digital Interface-SL1DV1DI1 interface is displayed in the Channels tab. You can change/add/edit interface or channel data as necessary. Figure 1-4 Board Configuration - Sample Digital Interface window (for slotted system)

Click on interface

Systemwide Configuration. Through the Systemwide configuration, you can easily configure items such as chassis clock source and database backup. In addition, you can configure RADIUS, CDR, and SysLog server information.

Auto Discovery The Auto Discovery process scans your local network to discover local Tenors. NOTE:

Before the Tenor executes an auto-discovery session, we recommend you check your local firewall settings to ensure there is a clear connection to the Tenor. The discovery process can only occur on Ethernet ports on the PC that are directly connected to their respective subnets (i.e., your local subnet).

Once the Auto Discovery process displays a list of Tenors needing configuration, you select the desired Tenor. If you are installing an Analog Tenor for the first time, the Configuration Wizard is launched to help you set up the basic configuration of your Tenor. Through the Wizard, you are able to set configuration, including IP address, dial plan, routing, and protocol data. See Launching the Configuration Wizard. • From the Address Book window, click the Discover button at the top left. • From the Configuration Manager’s main toolbar, click on the Discover icon, which appears as a magnifying glass. After a scan of the local network, the Tenor Discovered screen is displayed, listing all local Tenors on the network that need to be configured.

When set to Digital Line, a selected Digital Interface (such as T1 or E1, or BRI) will provide the clock source. When set to Internal, the Tenor will "free-run" using its own internal clock source. The default setting is Digital Line. • Secondary Clock Source - Secondary Clock Source is the source from which the Tenor derives secondary network clocking. Secondary Clock Source defaults to Internal.

• Line Type - Selects the line type of Digital Interface: T1 or E1. If the T1/E1 WAN interface card can be dynamically configured as a T1 or E1, then this attribute is configurable; otherwise, it is read-only. • Voice Coding Law - The Law command is used to set the voice coding law for this Digital Interface to either Mu-Law or A-Law. Typically, Mu-Law is used with T1, while A-Law is used with E1. • Signaling Protocol - CAS (Channel Associated Signaling) carries signaling information within the data channels of a T1 line (in band) rather than on a separate control channel. CAS signaling is also used to carry 911 emergency data such as telephone number and location information. CAS Signaling is primarily used on T1 lines (and for the most part E&M is the Signaling Type of choice), and R2 is CAS Signaling on an E1 line.If you select CAS, you will also need to select a Signaling Type, ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) is an international standard for end-to-end digital transmission of voice, data, and signaling. ISDN uses existing phone lines, but does require specialized equipment. The Basic Rate Interface (BRI) consists of two 64 kbps plus another lower rate channel to handle signaling. Primary Rate Interface (PRI) consists of 23 channels plus a signaling channel. If you select ISDN, you will need to select the PRI protocol. When you have made your choices, click Next again.
