Using the phone in different scenarios
Using your phone in a professional environment with phone system and server structure
If you use your Maxwell 10 in a corporate network with a telephone infrastructure, your phone incor porates functions and data from the phone system and servers.
In a corporate environment, the VoIP accounts and most of the settings are configured centrally by the phone system.

§§1§§Gigaset IP telephone
§§2§§Gigaset IP telephone with integrated gigabit switch (Maxwell 10). Your PC is connected directly to the phone, providing you with an additional LAN connection in your network.
§§3§§DECT Multicell System for connetion to up to 100 DECT handsets.
§§4§§DECT base for connection to DECT handsets.
§§5§§Ethernet switchSupports Quality of Service (QoS), Gigabit Ethernet and PoE (Power over Ethernet).
§§6§§Phone system (e.g., Gigaset T500 PRO)Forms Internet telephony, ISDN or S2M connections. Analogue devices can be connected. A net work connection is established using Ethernet.
§§7§§Gateway to the Internet for all connected devices. Routes VoIP calls from the phone system to the Internet.
§§8§§File, e-mail and workgroup servers, or NAS systems, can be wirelessly integrated into the phone system architecture. As a result:
–Invitations to conference calls can be organised via the phone system
–The phone system can be backed up to a server or the system can be started via the network
–Online directories (LDAP) can be managed centrally
Using your phone in a simplified environment without a phone system
You can also use your Maxwell 10 without a phone system.

§§1§§Gigaset IP telephone with integrated gigabit switch (Maxwell 10). Your PC is connected directly to the phone, providing you with an additional LAN connection in your network.
§§2§§Gateway to the Internet for the connected devices. Routes VoIP calls from the phone to the Inter net. You establish the connection to the gateway via cable or wirelessly via WI-Fi.
§§3§§The SIP provider transfers calls from the Internet and establishes a connection with the standard telephone network.
In this scenario, you must manually configure the VoIP accounts for your phone. You can create up to 12 VoIP accounts on your phone.
First steps

For information on unpacking and installing the device please refer to the Maxwell 10 Installation Guide.

 Status.
uThe IP address can sometimes change, depending on the settings of the DHCP server in your network.

Accessing the Web configurator:
ÛLaunch the Internet browser on your PC.
ÛEnter the IP address in the browser's address field. Example:
The login screen appears.
ÛSelect the appropriate language from the drop-down list.
ÛEnter the password. Default: admin
ÛClick on Login.
The Web configurator will now start.
ÛSelect the function that you wish to use.
uUse the Settings tab to set or change individual functions on your phone.
uOpen the Status tab to obtain information about the status of your phone (
 p. 38).

For your security, you should change the default passwords (
 p. 35).

Understanding the Web configurator menu tree
Network and connectors
All of the settings for connecting your phone to the local network must be correct to enable commu nication with other devices in the network and phone calls via the Internet.
If you use the Web configurator, your phone is already connected to the local network. You can use the Network and Connections menu to change and extend these settings. You can also create set tings for phone connections:
uLAN settings (£ p. 14)
uPhone Systems (£ p. 16)
uQoS settings (Quality of Service) (£ p. 17)
uVoIP settings (£ p. 18)
uSecurity settings (£ p. 19)
LAN settings

If an error occurs when you are changing the LAN settings, the PC connection to the phone may be cancelled and you will no longer have access to the Web configurator.
If this happens, you must re-establish phone access to the local network via the display (
 p. 9).

Settings  
  Network and Connections  
  Local Area Network (LAN)
VLAN tagging
A local network can be divided into logical subnetworks known as VLANs (VLAN = Virtual Local Area Network, Standard IEEE 802.1Q). Multiple VLANs share a physical network and its components, e.g., switches. Data packets from a VLAN are not forwarded to another VLAN. VLANs are often used to sep arate the data traffic of different services (Internet telephony, Internet TV etc.) and to define different priorities for the data traffic.
You can operate your phone and a PC connected to the PC port on your phone in two different VLANs. In this case, you enter the VLAN identifiers (VLAN tags) for your VLAN. Your network operator will supply you with this data.

If you operate the PC in a different VLAN from the phone, you will no longer have direct access to the Web configurator of the phone from the PC.

...

ÛSelect the required priorities for voice and data transmission for the LAN port from the Voice Pri ority and Data Priority menus.
ÛIf you selected LAN and PC Port, select the VLAN Priority for the transmission of PC data as well.
Data packets from VLANs can be prioritised. The priority determines whether the data traffic from a VLAN is given preferential treatment by the network components. You can define the priority for voice and data separately. In the case of a local network with a lot of data traffic, you can achieve bet ter quality phone connections by giving a high priority to voice data. Using a high priority for data services you can achieve better quality for displaying info services such as webcam images or maps.
Range of values and assignment of values to service classes (according to IEEE 802.1p):

0

No priority (Best Effort)

1

Background services, e.g., news ticker (Background)

2

:
Call Manager
If your phone is connected to a phone system, you can decide how to handle incoming and outgoing calls for different situations. The availability of the following options depends on the selected phone system.
For the following situations:
–Incoming calls that are transferred by the phone system's call manager (Accept call directly),
–Incoming calls that are not transferred by the call manager (Incoming Calls without Call Man ager),
–Calls that you initiate via a function key (
 p. 32) (Outgoing Calls via function key),
–Other outgoing calls (Execute call),
you have the following options to accept/execute the call:
via headset
via handsfree or
–not at all (No) (incoming calls)
BLF list IP address (URI) (only for Broadsoft)
Busy Lamp Field (BLF) features allow users to view the status of phone lines that are associated with specific phone features. Using BLF pickup, it is possible to answer an incoming call for all lines on the Maxwell 10 that the phone is allowed to monitor. Which BLF features are configured for the phone is defined on the phone system.
ÛIn the BLF list user field, enter the IP address (URI) of the server providing the list of devices for which the phone is able to accept incoming calls.
This function is only available if supported by the phone system.
Extended service platform PBX of service provider
ÛIf your provider provides extended PBX services, enter the Server Address and the phone sytem account data, e.g. UCI Login-ID and the UCI Password. The necessary data to be entered depend on the selected phone system.
Saving settings
ÛClick on Save to save your settings on the Phone Systems screen.
QoS settings (Quality of Service)
On this screen you can optimise the voice quality of your IP telephone.
The voice quality depends on the priority of the voice data in the IP network. Prioritising the VoIP data packets is done using the QoS protocol DiffServ (Differentiated Services). DiffServ defines a number of classes for the quality of service and, within these classes, various priority levels for which specific prioritisation procedures are defined.
You can specify different QoS values for SIP and RTP packets. SIP packets (Session InitiationProtocol) contain the signalling data, while RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) is usedfor the voice transfer.

  Network and Connections  
  Quality of Service (QoS)

ÛEnter your chosen QoS values in the SIP ToS/Diffserv (Range: 0 - 63) and RTP ToS/Diffserv (Range: 0 - 63) fields.
Value range: 0 - 63.

Common values for VoIP (default setting):

 

 

SIP

34

High service class for fast switching of the data flow (Expedited Flow)

 

RTP

46

Highest service class for fast forwarding of data packets (Expedited Forwarding)

  VoIP
"Listen ports" for VoIP connections

ÛSelect the ports on which your phone expects incoming VoIP connections.


ÛSelect Yes if the phone should use any available ports for the SIP port and RTP port instead of fixed ports.
The use of random ports is advisable if you want multiple phones to be operated on the same router/gateway with NAT. The phones must then use different ports so that the NAT for the router/gateway is only able to forward incoming calls and voice data to one (the intended) phone.
ÛIf you click on No, the phone uses the ports specified in SIP port and RTP port.
Specify the local communication port that the phone should use to send and receive signalling data. Specify a number between 1024 and 49152. The default port number for SIP signalling is 5060.
Specify the local communication port that the phone should use to receive voice data. Enter an even number between 1024 and 49152. The port number must not be the same as the port num ber in the SIP port field. If you enter an odd number, the next lowest even number will be selected automatically (e.g., if you enter 5003, then 5002 is set automatically). The default port number for voice transmission is 5004.
Choose whether or not to use ICE (Interactive Connectivity Establishment). ICE is similar to STUN (
 p. 22) a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) method for overcoming NAT firewalls.

Security settings
On this screen you can download server certificates onto your phone, delete downloadedcertificates and specify how invalid certificates should be handled.
Server certificates allow a server to be digitally identified via SSL (Secure Sockets Layer). Operating a server with SSL requires a server certificate both for one-way authentication (server to the client) and for two-way authentication (between client and server). A server certificate has to be downloaded onto your device so that the device can carry out authentication.
The Server certificates and CA certificates lists contain all downloaded certificates.
ÛSelect a certificate from one of the lists.
ÛClick on Remove to delete the certificate from the list.
ÛClick on Details to display information about the certificate.
