Configuring administrator and system settings

Configure administrator and system settings on the FortiVoice Gateway by completing the following procedures:

• Editing a physical network interface

• Configuring a static route

• Configuring system options

• Configuring SIP settings, optional

Editing a physical network interface

Perform this procedure to set the IP address, netmask, and administrative access protocols of the FXS gateway.

1. In the GUI of the FortiVoice Gateway, go to System > Network.

   The Network tab displays the following ports:

   Port 1 has a default IP address and netmask set to 192.168.1.99/24.

   Port 2 has a default IP address set to 192.168.2.99/24.

2. Double-click a network interface that you want to use to set the IP address of the FXS gateway.
3. In Addressing Mode, Manual, go to IP/Netmask and edit the IP address and netmask of the interface. Make sure that this IP address is outside of the FortiGate DHCP range.
4. In Advanced Setting, make sure to enable the protocols that you want the network interface to use to accept connections to the FXS gateway.
5. In Administrative status, make sure that Up is selected for the network interface to be available to receive traffic.
6. Click OK.

Configuring a static route

Perform this procedure to configure a static route to the router.

1. In the GUI of the FortiVoice Gateway, go to System > Network, and then click the Routing tab.
2. Click New.
3. Make sure that Enable is selected.
4. In Destination IP/Netmask, enter the destination IP address and netmask of packets subject to this static route. To create a default route that matches all destination IP addresses, enter 0.0.0.0/0.
5. In Interface, select the interface that this route applies to.
6. In Gateway, enter the IP address of the router.
7. In Comment, enter any notes for this static route.
8. Click OK.

Configuring system options

Perform this procedure to set the system idle timeout and administration ports.

1. In the GUI of the FortiVoice Gateway, go to System > Configuration, and then click the Option tab.
2. In Idle timeout, enter the amount of time in minutes that an administrator can be inactive before the FXS gateway automatically logs out the administrator.
3. In Administration Ports, specify the TCP ports for the administrative access on all interfaces.

   Default port numbers:

   • HTTP port number: 80
   • HTTPS port number: 443
   • SSH port number: 22
   • TELNET port number: 23
4. Click Apply.

Configuring SIP settings

Optionally, perform this procedure to configure SIP settings.

1. In the GUI of the FortiVoice Gateway, go to System > Advanced Setting, and then click the SIP tab.
2. In SIP Transport, enable the ports as required.

   SIP communications commonly uses TCP or UDP port 5060.

   Port 5060 is used for nonencrypted SIP signaling sessions.

   Port 5061 is typically used for SIP sessions encrypted with the TLS protocol.

3. In RTP Setting, keep the default values.
4. Click Apply.

   You have completed this procedure.

5. Go to Upgrading the FXS gateway firmware.
