There are following tabs in the “Settings” section :

  • “Main”;
  • “Network Interface Settings”;
  • “Routes”;
  • “NAT”
  • “Incoming”;
  • “Codecs”;
  • “Terminal”;
  • “Registration SIP”;
  • “Registration H.323”;
  • “NDI”
  • “VISCA”
  • “Screensaver”;
  • “Diagnostics”;
  • “Reboot”;
  • “Shutdown”.

“Main” tab

In the main settings tab you can change:

  • Firewall settings to deny access to SIP and H.323 ports from the local network;
  • H.323 settings, such as signaling port, RTP port range, enabling login/password authorization;
  • SIP signaling port and ToS;
  • Time settings;
  • Default language in interface settings.

The firewall settings work as an access whitelist.

Notice:

If the field is empty access is allowed from all networks available to the terminal. If a single address or a subnet address is in the list access is allowed from that subnet addresses.

The H.323 and SIP signaling ports changing requires the same value settings on other devices as well.

“Network interface settings” tab

The “Network interfaces settings” tab allows you to configure IP address assigning to network interfaces: automatically (by DHCP) or manually.

In order to configure the IP address manually, you should fill in the fields:

  • IP;
  • Network mask;
  • Gateway;
  • DNS;
  • MTU.

Click on the “save” button after that.

A dual network interface configuration is also available.

“Routes” tab

In the “Routes” tab you can view automatically identified routes and assign additional routes.

Press the “Add” button to assign a new route. In the modal window you should enter following:

  • the destination network prefix;
  • the mask and gateway which the destination address is available through;
  • choose the interface to connect to the gateway;
  • press the “Add” button.

The new route will appear in the table. In case you need to disable or delete this route, click on “Disable” button, confirm your choice and press the “Delete” button after that.

“NAT” tab

The “NAT” settings tab allows you to configure the device if it is behind a NAT router, specify the external IP-address of the UP-Link device, define local networks, STUN address and assign the RTP protocol port range.

The device external address is entered in the “External IP” field. In the “Local networks” field, the prefixes with no need for external address substitution (NAT translation) are defined.

Notice:

SIP, H.323 and RTP port ranges must be enabled in the router NAT configuration (firewall).

“Incoming" tab

This tab specifies character allowed limit of the phone number, outrange of which is blocked and its IP-address automatically adds to the blacklist. It is available to enable the blacklist that blocks all traffic from included addresses. In order to add IP address to the blacklist you need to:

  • click on the “Add” button;
  • enter the IP-address;
  • press the “Save” button.

“Codecs” tab “Codecs” is the tab with audio and video codec lists supported by the account’s device. The list on the left contains available codecs. In order to use them, transfer a codec to the right field.

An empty field on the right means that default codecs are used. If codecs are selected (moved to the right), only the ones that chosen are in use. For example, if only audio codecs are selected the video stream is not processed. You should carefully install codecs or use default codecs (the right field is clear).

Notice:

the H.265 codec works with SIP protocol only.

Notice:

To transfer codecs and generate its list in the right field, single click on the codec name in the list box on the left.

“Terminal” tab

The tab has general terminal settings:

device name; location; default protocol; resolution; bandwidth; frame rate; channel bandwidth mode; maximum call duration; connected monitors and their resolutions; standby mode switching delay; connected cameras and resolutions; camera role selection; enabling autoanswer; autoanswer delay; turninig the microphone off when autoanswer is on; playback device; recording device; enabling echo cancellation; enabling ringtone; sound check button; enabling “Do Not Disturb” mode; enabling SIP and H.323 protocol support; enabling the lecturer display on the second monitor during the call.

“SIP Registration” tab

The “SIP Registration” tab is used to configure the SIP-server connecton parameters: IP-address, authorization and codecs.

For a terminal registration either the terminal IP-address or login/password (if authorization is enabled) can be used. There is a possibility to choose the call protocol: TCP, UDP or TLS, specify the port, and there is an option to enable SRTP encryption.

The following codec and transmission protocol settings are recommended:

“H.323 Registration” tab

The “H.323 Registration” tab is used to configure the H.323 server connection parameters: IP address, authorization and codecs.

Notice:

as in the SIP-registration case, either the terminal IP-address is used for registration or login/password (if authorization is enabled) can be used. It is possible to specify the port as well. The “Crypto” switch enables encryption.

The following codecs set up is recommended:

“NDI” tab

NDI (Network Device Interface) is an open standard with a free SDK set that allows multiple video systems to identify each other and communicate over an IP connection to encode, convert and receive multiple streaming video and audio signals of high quality with minimal latency and high frame rate in real time.

In addition to video, audio and service information, the protocol allows for remote device control, such as PTZ camera rotation and tilt over the network. The protocol supports network operation of a wide range of video devices, such as a video mixer, a PTZ camera and a capture card.

NDI Setup

To detect a PTZ camera, click on the “Search” button in the NDI tab. The terminal using the NDI will detect and display the list of available cameras on the screen, where:

the first column “Device” has a camera name; the IP column displays the camera IP address; the “Camera Type” column displays camera using types, such as a main camera or as a presentation camera.

To set the camera type, click on the link with a camera name in the Device column.

A window with options will open, where you can select the camera type: “Basic” or “Presentation”.

“Visca” tab

“Visca over IP” allows you to configure PTZ camera control over the network.

If an NDI camera is selected as the main camera it will be controlled instead of the one connected via VISCA cable or specified in the VISCA over IP settings.

The Visca over IP connection has a higher priority than the Visca over cable connection. If a camera is connected to the terminal both via cable and IP configuration, the terminal will use Visca over IP while controlling a camera.

If the NDI devices specified as “Home” or “Presentation” cameras is not found when the terminal is turned on, the terminal will use cameras connected via USB or HDMI cables.

To activate the feature, enable Visca over IP option and fill in the “IP” field with the camera IP-address. Then click on the “Save” button to apply the settings.

“Screensaver” tab

The “Screensaver” tab allows to load images displayed on the screen while the terminal is in the standby mode. Here you can enable the feature as well as set the screensaver display frequency.

To add a screensaver click on the “Upload” button, choose the image you need and press the “Upload” button.

“Diagnostics” tab

This tab provides common utilities for detecting problems with local network connectivity:

  • Ping;
  • Traceroute;
  • Tcpdump;
  • call logging utility to detect problems while making a call;

“Reboot" tab

The “Reboot” tab allows you to reboot the terminal by pressing the “Reboot” button.

“Shutdown” tab

Clicking on the “Shutdown” tab brings up a window where you can shut down the terminal.
