IP CONFIGURATION 
This menu is for Integrated LAN and Wireless LAN configurations; select “IP Configuration” and select the type of the desired 
LAN Network: 
•  Select “IP Configuration”   
(Integrated LAN) 
•  Select “IP Wireless Configuration”  (Wireless LAN ) 
•  Select the Priority between fixed and wireless network, for outgoing calls. 
 
IP Configuration: Integrated LAN 
In this menu, you can enable/disable automatic assignment of an IP address:  
•  IP address 
•  Subnet mask 
•  Gateway IP address 
•  DNS server IP address 
 
Is possible to configure Ethernet port either for what concerns connection “LAN speed” (10Mbps / 100Mbps), or “Duplex 
Mode” (Half / Full), in order to optimally operate with HUB/Switch that do not support automatic configuration. 
Default configuration is <Auto> for both settings. 
 
For configuration information, please contact your network administrator. 
 
By selecting ADVANCED, you can enter a page to set: 
•  The range of dynamic TCP and UDP ports (*). 
•  The quality of service policy to be applied: 
 
IP Precedence/TOS 
 
Differentiated service. You can choose audio and video values in a 0 to 63 range 
 
•  “Use NAT”: 
1.  “NAT Type” should be set to “Others”  
2.  “Public IP address” must be the public IP address of the NAT. 
 
By selecting the “BANDWIDTH” icon is possible to enable and set maximum bandwidth usage limits (in Kbps). These limits 
can be different in transmission and reception, a very useful function on ADSL networks. 
 
Firewalls 
All Aethra videoconferencing codecs have been tested with:  
Cisco PIX Firewall (Firewall H.323 compatible - release 6.1 or later). 
Cisco MCM Proxy (NAT H.323 compatible - IOS release 12.2 or later). 
 
Note (*) 
when a firewall is crossed, the firewall administrator must open a range of dynamic TCP and UDP ports, as configured in 
the codec, to allow bidirectional IP traffic.  Moreover, once the ports have been opened, the protocols (TCP 1720 (Q.931), 
TCP 1503 (T.120), UDP 1719, and 1718 (RAS)) involved in a call must be taken into account.
