Configuring AastraLink Pro 160 System and Network Parameters
The Local Services parameters you can specify for the AastraLink Pro 160
include:
• Remote Office
Enables/disables remote access support on the AastraLink Pro 160. Default is
Off. You only need to enable this field if you deploy and support remote IP
phones.
Enabling this parameter permits Aastra IP phone connections from the HTTP
external port of the gateway/router (TCP port 9600).
• UPnP
Enables/disables Universal Plug-n-Play (UPnP) support on the AastraLink.
Default is Off. You may need to set this parameter if you are supporting calls
beyond your local IP phone network (for example, if you have remote office
workers or have enabled SIP trunking) that connect to the AastraLink using a
UPnP router.
Enabling UPnP
Set UPnP to enable only if all of the following conditions are true:
— The AastraLink is installed behind a UPnP capable router.
— The UPnP protocol is enabled, and operating correctly, on the router.
— The router is a model/brand supported by the AastraLink for UPnP.
Note: UPnP support and compatibility varies, depending on the implementation
used by the specific router manufacturer. Contact Aastra Telecom for the
list of UPnP routers tested with a specific AastraLink software version.
Disabling UPnP
UPnP is set to Disable by default. Accept this default setting if any of the
following conditions are true:
— The AastraLink is installed behind a router which either does not support
UPnP, or has UPnP disabled.
— The AastraLink will not be using external network connections (remote
office IP phone users or SIP trunks).
— The AastraLink is installed behind a UPnP enabled router, but for some
reason UPnP is not functioning.
