VLAN and adds 802.1Q VLAN tags to its IP packets. If the Cisco ATA does not receive a response with a VLAN ID from the network switch, then the Cisco ATA assumes it is not operating in a VLAN environment and does not perform VLAN tagging on its packets.
Page 39: Specifying A Preconfigured Vlan Id Or Disabling Vlan Ip Encapsulation
The Cisco ATA contacts the TFTP server and downloads the Cisco ATA release software that contains the correct signaling image for the Cisco ATA to function properly. If you are not using a TFTP server, you need to manually upgrade the Cisco ATA to the correct Note signaling image.
Page 40 Example The following procedure shows you how to configure the OpFlags and VLANSetting parameters to allow the Cisco ATA to use a user-specified VLAN ID. In this example, the voice VLAN ID is 115 (in decimal format). Set bits 4-6 of the OpFlags parameter to 1, 0, and 1, respectively. This setting translates to the following...

Page 44: Configuring The Cisco Ata Using A Tftp Server
Configuring the Cisco ATA Using a TFTP Server The TFTP method of configuration is useful when you have many Cisco ATA because you can use a TFTP server for remote, batch configuration of Cisco ATAs. A TFTP server can host one unique configuration file for each Cisco ATA.
Page 45: Creating Unique And Common Cisco Ata Configuration Files
DHCP:1 TFtpURL:10.10.10.1 The settings in this example indicate that a group of Cisco ATAs is using the TFTP server with an IP address of 10.10.10.1 to obtain their configuration files. These Cisco ATAs will use a DHCP server to obtain their own IP addresses but not to obtain the TFTP server IP address (because the TftpURL parameter has a configured value).
Page 46 Save this file of Cisco ATA-specific parameters as: ata<macaddress>.txt where macaddress is the non-dotted hexadecimal version of the MAC address of the Cisco ATA you are configuring. This non-dotted hexadecimal MAC address is labeled on the bottom of most Cisco ATAs next to the word “MAC.”...

Cisco ATA MAC address. This is the name you use for the unique Cisco ATA binary configuration file. Cisco ATA 186 and Cisco ATA 188 Analog Telephone Adaptor Administrator’s Guide for H.323 (version 3.0)
Page 48: Using Encryption With The Cfgfmt Tool
By default, the Cisco ATA-specific ata<macaddress> configuration file(s) are not encrypted. If encryption is required, however, you must manually configure the EncryptKeyEx or EncryptKey parameter before you boot up the Cisco ATA so that the TFTP method is secure. The Cisco ATA uses the RC4 cipher algorithm for encryption.

2.16.2. Versions earlier than 2.16.2 do not support the stronger EncryptKeyEx parameter. Example 1 In this example, the Cisco ATA has not yet been deployed, but its firmware version is earlier than 2.16.2. Therefore, the Cisco ATA will upgrade to to firmware version 3.0 to use the EncryptKeyEx parameter as its encryption key.
Page 52 Place these two files on the TFTP server that the Cisco ATA will contact for its configuration files. Step 6 When the Cisco ATA powers up, it will obtain its IP address from the DHCP server. If the DHCP server specifies the TFTP server address, the Cisco ATA will contact the TFTP server obtained from DHCP because the Cisco ATA is not preconfigured with a TFTP server address.
Page 53: Atadefault.cfg Configuration File
The following procedure illustrates how to create the Cisco ATA default configuration file, convert it to the required binary format that the Cisco ATA can read, and store it on the TFTP server so that the Cisco ATA will download it during the boot-up process: Procedure Make a copy of the h323_example.txt file and rename it atadefault.txt.
Page 54: Configuring The Cisco Ata To Obtain Its Configuration File From The Tftp Server
Standard DHCP option 66 (TFTP server name) If you use DHCP option 150, the Cisco ATA will ignore DHCP option 66. However, if you use DHCP option 66, you must turn off DHCP option 150 or set its value to 0.
Page 55 Procedure if DHCP Server is not Under Control of Cisco ATA Administrator This is the procedure to use if the DHCP server is not under the control of the Cisco ATA administrator, which means that the URL of the TFTP server must be manually configured.
Page 56: Voice Configuration Menu
The main reasons to use the voice configuration menu are to establish IP connectivity for the Cisco ATA if a DHCP server is not being used in your network environment, and to reset the Cisco ATA to its factory values if necessary. You can also use the voice configuration menu if you need to configure a small number of parameters or if the web interface and TFTP configuration are not available.
Page 57: Using The Voice Configuration Menu
Connect an analog touch-tone phone to the port labeled Phone 1 on the back of the Cisco ATA. Step 1 Lift the handset and press the function button located on the top of the Cisco ATA. You should receive Step 2 the initial voice configuration menu voice prompt.

Press the digits 322873738 (FACTRESET) then press # on your telephone keypad. Step 2 Press * on your telephone keypad to confirm that you want to reset the Cisco ATA, then hang up the phone. Step 3 Cisco ATA Web Configuration Page You can use the Cisco ATA web configuration page in a non-TFTP configuration environment, or in a TFTP configuration environment as a read-only record of individual customer parameters.

Page 61: Refreshing Or Resetting The Cisco Ata
Whenever you make configuration changes to your Cisco ATA configuration file, you can refresh or reset the Cisco ATA for these configuration changes to immediately take effect. If you do not refresh or reset the Cisco ATA, the configuration changes will take effect the next time the Cisco ATA contacts the TFTP server, which occurs based on the configured value of the CfgInterval parameter.

The Cisco ATA continuously monitors its Ethernet connection to the switch or hub. If this connection is broken, the Cisco ATA starts an internal timer that runs until a configurable timeout period expires. Once the timeout value is reached, the Cisco ATA automatically reboots. This timeout value is configured by using the FeatureTimer2 configuration parameter.

Optionally, you can include the path prefix to the TFTP file to download. For example, if the TFTP server IP address is 192.168.2.170 or www.cisco.com, and the path to download the TFTP file is in /ata186, you can specify the URL as 192.168.2.170/ata186 or www.cisco.com/ata186.
Page 82: Cfginterval
EncryptKey parameter has a value other than 0. The cfgfmt tool uses the rc4 encryption algorithm. If this parameter value is set to 0, the Cisco ATA configuration file on the TFTP server is not encrypted. Cisco recommends using the stronger Cisco ATA encryption method, which requires the use of the Note EncryptKeyEx parameter.
Page 83: Encryptkeyex
When EncryptKeyEx is used for encryption, the Cisco ATA searches for the configuration file with the format ata<macaddress>.x. on the TFTP server. If the value of the EncryptKeyEx parameter is 0, then the Cisco ATA uses the value of the EncryptKey parameter for encryption.

The fax upspeed method allows you to use low bit-rate codecs such as G.723 and G.729 for voice calls, and G.711 codecs for fax calls. With a fax call, the Cisco ATA detects a 2100-Hz CED tone or V.21 preamble flag, then informs the remote gateway of its intent to switchover to G.711 via a peer-to-peer message.

When setting up dial-peer for fax pass-through, it is necessary to set up a pair of dial-peers for inbound Step 3 and outbound calls between the Cisco ATA and Cisco IOS gateways. You do this by specifying the destination-pattern and incoming-called number. The destination-pattern should point to the Cisco ATA, while the incoming-called number should apply to all numbers that the Cisco ATA is allowed to dial.

1 REN 3200 feet (975 m) The Cisco ATA, however, is not designed for long distance. The simple test is to determine if the phone or phones that are connected to the Cisco ATA work properly in their environment.

Calling Line Identification Restriction in Sweden, page A-4 • Caller ID When the telephone rings, the Cisco ATA sends a Caller ID signal to the telephone between the first and second ring (with name, telephone number, time, and date information, if these are available). Call-Waiting Caller ID The Cisco ATA plays a call waiting tone, then sends an off-hook Caller ID signal to the telephone immediately after the first tone burst.

You cannot conference in all three callers, but the first person you called could call someone else and daisy-chain them into the conference. When the Cisco ATA is configured to use Call Waiting by default, press *70 on your telephone keypad to disable Call Waiting for the duration of the next call.
