Introduction

SmartWare Software Configuration Guide 

This chapter provides an overview of POTS signaling and SmartNode FXO ports and describes the tasks 
involved in configuring FXO ports in SmartWare. 

This chapter includes the following sections:

•

Shutdown and enable FXO ports (see 

)

•

Bind FXO ports to higher layer protocols (see 

•

Configure country specific FXO port parameters (see 

•

Configure other FXO port parameters (see 

)

FXO stands for foreign exchange office and is the subscriber side of a POTS (plain old telephone system) line. 
An FXO port on the SmartNode simulates thus an analog phone set, which must actively go on-hook and off-
hook, detect ringing and caller-id, and dial the called-party number using DTMF keypad.

FXO ports are enabled by default. They also can be configured when they are active. But keep in mind that 
configuration of an active port temporarily disables the port for a short time (some milliseconds).

Mode: Configure

An FXO port needs to be associated to an fxo interface in a CS context. The same mechanism of encapsulation 
and binding is used as known for e.g. ethernet ports (see section 

Procedure: To bind an FXO port to an fxo interface of a CS context

Mode: Port FXO

Enter FXO port configuration mode

Shutdown the port. All active calls are dropped!

Activate the port. 

Enter configuration mode for FXO port

Sets the encapsulation for the port. cc-fxo designs 
the encapsulation is a context CS interface

Binds the port to an interface in a CS context
