N870 IP PRO Multicell System – Introduction

• N870 IP PRO DECT manager

Management unit for a group of base stations. At least one DECT manager must be used for
each installation.
The DECT manager
• Manages bases station synchronisation within the clusters
• Provides application gateway between SIP signalling and DECT signalling
• Controls the media path from PBX to relevant base stations
Configuring DECT managers page 28
• N870 IP PRO DECT base stations
• Provide cell site DECT functions
• Provide media processing from handset directly towards PBX
• Provide connection channels for the handsets, the number depends on various factors
such as the approved bandwidth and the device role
Configuring the base stations page 37
• Handsets (mobile devices)
• Per DECT manager up to 250 handsets can be connected. To allow inter-DECT-manager
roaming, the regular load of handsets planned to be attached to one DECT manager
should be lower (approx. 80 %).
60 DECT calls could be made simultaneously for VoIP calls, network directory sessions
and info center sessions. For information on handset functions in relation to Gigaset base
stations, visit wiki.gigasetpro.com.
• Subscribers can accept or initiate calls in all DECT cells with their handset (Roaming), and
can also switch between the DECT cells during a call (Handover). A handover is only
possible if cells are synchronised.
Configuring handsets page 57
Detailed information about approved Gigaset handsets can be found in the relevant user
guide. These are provided on the Internet at wiki.gigasetpro.com.
• PBX (Private Branch Exchange)
You need to connect your DECT telephone system to an IP PBX or Provider with VoIP
(SIP)connections, e.g.,
• On premise PBX
• Hosted PBX
• Cloud PBX
• VoIP Provider
The PBX
Template Module, Version 1.2, 11.09.2018

• Establishes the connection to a public telephone network

• Enables central management of telephone connections, directories, network mailboxes

N870 IP PRO Multicell System – Introduction

• Forming clusters
A cluster defines a set of base stations of a DECT manager that shall synchronise in order to
perform handover, roaming and overload balancing.
Handover means to switch a handsets DECT connection to a new base station during a call.
Roaming means to connect a handset in idle mode via a new base.
Overload balancing is the process to setup a DECT connection (for a call or other adminis-
trative or customer purpose) not at the current base station, which is fully loaded with active
DECT or media connections, but via a neighbour base station, which has free resources to
setup/accept the new DECT connection.
While handover and roaming is possible between base stations of different DECT managers,
overload balancing is only possible inside the area of one DECT manager.
Handover and overload balancing can only be provided by synchronised base stations. In
some cases, not all base stations connected to one DECT manager can be synchronised for
location specific reasons. To organize synchronisation just within a subset of base stations
connected to one DECT manager, you can form clusters, within a DECT manager.
A DECT manager can offer multiple clusters with base stations synchronised within the
cluster, but not synchronised along different clusters.
In multiple DECT manager installations, cross-cluster synchronisation is possible via DECT
manager synchronisation ( page 34).

Planning your DECT wireless network

Careful planning of your DECT wireless network is the prerequisite for successful operation of
the N870 IP PRO Multicell System with good call quality and adequate call options for all
subscribers in all the buildings and areas belonging to the PBX. When deciding how many base
stations are needed, and where these should be positioned, both the requirements for the
capacity of the PBX and its wireless coverage, as well as many ambient conditions, must be taken
into consideration.
The "N870 IP PRO - Site Planning and Measurement Guide" will make it easier for you to plan your
multicell DECT network, explain the necessary preparatory work for the installation and describe
how to carry out measurements in order to find the best positions for your base stations. Please
read these instructions before starting installation.
We also offer the N720 IP PRO Site Planning Kit (Site Planning Kit) to help you measure the wire-
less coverage and signal quality on your DECT network. Information about setting up and using
the Gigaset measuring equipment can also be found in the "N870 IP PRO -Site Planning and
Measurement Guide".

10 Configure VoIP PBX or provider ¢ page 50
11 Register handsets and perform handset configuration ¢ page 57
All the handsets to be used for making calls over the N870 IP PRO must be
registered at the telephone system. Any handset must get assigned an indi-
vidual SIP account at the SIP PBX. When registering, the handset is perma-
nently assigned a VoIP connection as the receive and send connection.
Create a backup to save your configuration ¢ page 87
If you want to migrate from a small or medium configuration with one single DECT
manager to a multiple DECT manager system, please read the "Migration" chapter
first (¢ page 96).

Whenever there are new or improved functions for your Gigaset device, firmware
updates are made available for you to download to your DECT managers and your
base stations. If this results in operational changes when using your phone, a new
version of this user guide or the necessary amendments will be published on the
Internet at

First steps

Mounting the device

Read the "N870 IP PRO - Site Planning and Measurement Guide" before you start
installing the devices.
• When installing the base stations, please take into account the technical conditions for posi-
tioning and the installation guidelines, which are described in the "N870 IP PRO - Site Plan-
ning and Measurement Guide".
• Install the base stations at the positions you determined when planning or measuring your
DECT wireless network.
• The N870 IP PRO device acting as Integrator/DECT manager can be installed anywhere
within the range of the local network. It does not need to be installed in the coverage area of
the DECT wireless network. Exception: the device comprising the DECT manager also acts as
base station.
• The N870 IP PRO devices are intended for wall mounting (¢ page 16).

• The devices are designed for use in dry rooms with a temperature range of +5°C
to +45°C.
• Never expose the devices to heat sources, direct sunlight or other electrical
appliances.
• Protect your device from moisture, dust, corrosive liquids and fumes.

First steps

Connecting to the LAN

DECT manager and base stations must be connected to the same Ethernet or virtual
LAN sharing a common broadcast domain.
If you intend to use DECT-LAN synchronisation, please consider the requirements
mentioned in section "LAN-based synchronisation" (¢ page 43).
You can connect the devices to your local network via a router, switch, or hub. A VoIP PBX is
required for Internet telephony. This must be accessible via the local network and must have
network access (to the Internet and/or the analogue or ISDN telephone network), because DECT
manager and base stations do not offer any NAT-traversal support. NAT-traversal support of a
PBX or providers might not provide unlimited support for a multicell system with SIP (DECT
manager) and media (base station) traffic transferred via different hosts. Otherwise it will only be
possible to make calls within the LAN.
You also need a PC connected to the local network, so that you can configure your telephone
system via the web configurator.
For each device to be connected to the local network an Ethernet cable is required.

First steps

Data protection notice

Once the device is connected to the Internet, it automatically contacts the Gigaset
support server to make it easier for you to configure the devices and to enable
communication with Internet services.
For this purpose, the system sends the following information when it is started and
then every five hours:
• Serial number/item number
• MAC address
• IP address on the LAN/its port numbers
• Device name
• Software version
The following data is transmitted once every day.
• Number of registered handsets
• Information for each handset: DECT identifier (IPUI), device type, user name and
display name
On the support server, this information is linked to the existing device-specific infor-
mation:
• System-related/device-specific passwords

Connecting the power supply

Your N870 IP PRO is supplied with sufficient power via PoE (Power over Ethernet) if the
device is connected to an Ethernet switch with PoE functionality (PoE class
IEEE802.3af). In this case, you do not need to connect the device to the mains power
supply.

Installing the Integrator (large installation)

The virtual integrator appliance could be offered as
• *.zip archive consisting of one *.vmx file specifying the virtual machine configuration and
some virtual disk images (*.vmdk) for this virtual machine
or
• single *.ova file, into which the VM configuration and the virtual disk-images files are
compiled.
Template Module, Version 1.2, 11.09.2018,

The virtual integrator is designed for and tested with VM Spehre ESXi (Versions 5.5, 6.0 and 6.5).
With its low requirements, the virtual integrator appliance might be supported by many other
hypervisor solutions, which are not mentioned here.

First steps

Defining the device role

On delivery all N870 IP PRO devices are configured as base station. To set up the DECT multicell
system at least one device must be configured as DECT manager. Detailed information on device
roles: ¢ page 4.
You use the device button on the front side to change the role of the device. The following
settings are possible:
• Base station,
• Base station and DECT manager with dynamic IP settings (large installation),
• Integrator/DECT manager with dynamic IP address (small/medium installation),
• Integrator/DECT manager with fixed IP settings (small/medium installation).
¤ Press the device button for at least 10 seconds until all LEDs switch off. Release the button
. . . the device is now in programming mode.
¤ Select the device role by pressing the device button.
Integrator/DECT manager with dynamic IP settings:
¤ Short press the device button until both LEDs light blue. . . . The
IP address will be assigned by a DHCP server in your network.
Integrator/DECT manager with fixed IP settings:
¤ Short press the device button until the right LED lights blue. . . .
The following IP settings are set:
IP address: 192.168.143.1
Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0
Base station:
¤ Short press the device button until the right LED lights green.

Base station and DECT manager:

¤ Short press the device button until the left LED lights blue and
the right LED lights green.
Once the desired role is selected:
¤ Press the device button at least three seconds but less than 10 seconds . . . the previously
selected role is assigned to the device . . . the device is reset and rebooted.

When changing the device role the system is reset to factory setting. This means,
that existing configuration and user data will be lost.
Template Module, Version 1.2, 11.09.2018

If you change the role of a device that has been acting as Integrator, you should save
the configuration previously (¢ page 87).
If you intend to reset the role from base to base/DECT manager:
Before you switch the device role, previously delete the base at any other system
where it was registered before. Otherwise problems may occur because the device
might be bound to two concurrent systems.

Resetting base stations to factory settings via power procedure

The following describes the procedure to reset base stations to factory settings via power proce-
dure. You can use it, if it is not possible to reset the device
• via the web configurator (¢ page 87), for instance because you have forgotten the pass-
word for the web configurator or you are experiencing problems accessing the LAN
• via the key procedure (¢ page 15), for instance because the devices are mounted in places
that are difficult to access.

The following procedure only applies to base stations. For DECT manager/Integrator
you need to use one of the above procedures.
Resetting the device to factory settings is performed by interrupting the boot process.
¤ Remove the power supply from the device (unplug the LAN cable or the power suply unit).
¤ Replug the LAN cable or the power suply unit . . . the reboot starts. If the boot process is not
interrupted, the standard reboot is performed.
¤ Interrupt the boot procedure after 30 sec. at the earliest and 40 sec. at the latest.
Once The device is reset as Integrator/DECT manager with dynamic IP settings.
Two times The device is reset as base station.
Four times The device is reset as Integrator/DECT manager/base station with dynamic IP
settings.
Template Module, Version 1.2, 11.09.2018,

This procedure resets all the settings you have made for the device. The procedure
deletes the saved data from the base stations and handsets. The base station's assign-
ment to the DECT manager is cancelled. Ongoing calls are cancelled. In the case of an
Integrator/DECT manager the whole configuration is reset.
To enable the restoration of your system configuration after a reset, you should regu-
larly save the configuration data to a file (¢ page 87).
If you intend to reset the role from base to DECT manager/base station, previously
delete the base at any other system where it was registered before.

Configuring the system

Configuring the system

System settings are made via the web configurator of the N870 IP PRO (¢ page 20) and cannot
be changed using the handsets.
This applies in particular for:
• Registering and de-registering the handset at the telephone system, handset name.
• All settings for the VoIP account used by a handset for calls.
• Configuration of online directories.
Handset-specific settings are preset on your handset. You can change these settings.
This applies, for example, for
• Display settings, such as language, colour, backlight etc.
• Settings relating to ringtones, volume, speaker profiles etc.
Information about this can be found in the user guide for the relevant handset.

The web configurator

Use the web configurator to set up your N870 IP PRO and configure your DECT network.
• Set up the DECT network, register and synchronise the base stations.
• Make basic settings for the VoIP connections and register and configure the handsets you
wish to use in the DECT network.
• Make additional settings, e.g., meet particular prerequisites for connecting the handsets to a
corporate network or adjust the voice quality on VoIP connections.
• Save data required to access specific services on the Internet. These services include access
to online directories, as well as synchronising the date/time with a time server.
• Save your DECT network's configuration data as files on your PC and reload these in the event
of an error. Upload new firmware, if available, and plan firmware updates at a specific date.

The IP address comprises four individual groups of numbers with decimal values from 0 to 255
that are separated by a dot, e.g., 192.168.2.1.
The IP address must be included in the address block used by the router/gateway for the local
network. The valid address block is defined by the IP address for the router/gateway and the
Template Module, Version 1.2, 11.09.2018

Subnet mask.

The IP address must be unique across the network, which means that it must not be
used by another device connected to the router/gateway.
The fixed IP address must not belong to the address block that is reserved for the
DHCP server for the router/gateway.
Check the settings on the router or ask your network administrator.

Subnet mask
The Subnet mask specifies how many parts of an IP address the network prefix must comprise.
For example, 255.255.255.0 means that the first three parts of an IP address must be the same for
all devices in the network, while the last part is specific to each device. In subnet mask
255.255.0.0, only the first two parts are reserved for the network prefix.
¤ Enter the subnet mask that is used by your network.
Standard gateway
The Standard gateway is generally the router/gateway of the local network. Your Integrator/
DECT manager device requires this information to be able to access the Internet.
¤ Enter the local (private) IP address for the standard gateway through which the local network
is connected to the Internet (e.g., 192.168.2.1).
Preferred DNS
DNS (Domain Name System) allows you to assign public IP addresses to symbolic names. The
DNS server is required to convert the DNS name into the IP address when a connection is being
established to a server.
¤ Enter the IP address for the preferred DNS server. You can specify the IP address for your
router/gateway here. This forwards address requests from the Integrator/DECT manager to
its DNS server. There is no default setting for a DNS server.
Alternate DNS
¤ Enter the IP address for the alternate DNS server that should be used in situations where the
preferred DNS server cannot be reached.

Details in this area are only required if you connect your phone system to a local network that is
divided into virtual subnetworks (VLAN – Virtual Local Area Network). In a tagged VLAN, data
packets are assigned to the individual subnetworks via tags (markings) that consist of a VLAN
identifier and the VLAN priority, amongst others.
You will need to save the VLAN identifier and VLAN priority on the phone system configuration.
Your VLAN provider will supply you with this data.
VLAN tagging
¤ Select the check box next to VLAN tagging, if you want the phone system to use VLAN
tagging.
VLAN identifier
¤ Enter the VLAN identifier that uniquely identifies the subnetwork. Value range: 0–4094.
VLAN priority
The VLAN priority allows voice data transport to take priority, for example.
¤ From the option menu select the priority for the phone system data.
Value range: 0–7 (0 = lowest, 7 = highest priority)

Ensure that the details in VLAN identifier or VLAN priority are set correctly. Incor-
rect settings can cause problems when connecting the DECT manger for configura-
tion purposes. Internal connections between DECT manager and base stations are
not tagged and therefore phone functions are not affected.
If required, you must carry out a hardware reset via power procedure ( page 18).
This means that all settings are lost.

RPN Group
Part of the RFPI for a DECT manager. PARI and RPN must be locally unique in order to achieve that
the RPN group allocated for the base stations of a DECT manager is locally unique in the system
too.
¤ Select the RPN group number for the DECT manager from the option menu. Values: 0 – 3
Four RPN groups imply that there are potentially eight neighbours for a DECT manager. Neigh-
bouring DECT managers must not have the same RPN group.
Example:
RPN groups of neighbouring DECT managers
0 1 0
2 3 2
0 1 0
To ensure, that a handset in 3 cannot see two identical RPN from the left 2 and the right 2 area,
it is necessary, that any DECT manager coverage area in any direction is large enough, to provide
enough isolation between two DECT manager areas of the same RPN group.
Example: Any handset in 3 should either see base stations from the left 2 or from the right 2, but
it must be impossible, that a handset in 3 can see base stations from the left 2 and at the same
time from the right 2.
Capacity
Defines the role of the device the DECT manager is located on. The device role has an impact on
how many base stations and handsets can be handled by the DECT manager ( page 7).

DECT manager synchronisation

This page allows you to configure external synchronisation references for synchronisation clus-
ters of your DECT managers. This way you could configure inter DECT manager synchronisation
rules, to get base stations of multiple DECT managers in sync. Cluster-internal synchronisation is
defined via base station synchronisation ( page 42).
A cluster can synchronise to a cluster-external source, for example:
• The best base station of another cluster within the same multicell system.
Best means the base station with the strongest radio signal.
• An external DECT system referenced by its RFPI.
RFPI is a unique identifier for a DECT system. You can enter a full matching RFPI to reference
a specific base station or a part of an RFPI in order to reference a group of base stations.
• The LAN master of a DECT manager.

Further information on RFPI: wiki.gigasetpro.com

The page allows you to add, edit and delete the cluster synchronization references.

Base station synchronisation

Synchronisation and the logical structuring of the base stations in clusters are prerequisites for
the functioning of the multicell system, intercell handover, and (over)load balancing. Overload
balancing means that a handset can roam to a free base, when current base is fully loaded and
cannot accept further handset connections.
Base stations can be synchronised "over the air", meaning that they are synchronised via DECT.
If the DECT connection between specific base stations seems to be not reliable enough, synchro-
nisation can also take place via LAN. To carry out the synchronisation you will need the plan of
the clusters with the synchronisation level for each base station.

Synchronisation always refers to a cluster. In case you set up several clusters that are
not synchronised with one another, there will be no possibility of a handover or
(over)load balancing between them.
Synchronisation for handover between base stations in clusters managed by
different DECT managers can be configured via DECT manager administration
( page 34).
For detailed information on DECT network planning, please refer to the "N870 IP PRO - Site Plan-
ning and Measurement Guide".

A base station shows its synchronisation status with an LED ( page 34).

Synchronisation planning
Base stations that combine to form a DECT wireless network must synchronise with one another
to ensure a smooth transition of the handsets from cell to cell (handover). No handover and no
(overload) balancing is possible between cells that are not synchronised. In the event of loss of
synchronisation, the base station stops accepting calls once all ongoing calls that were being
conducted on the asynchronous base station have ended and then it re-synchronises the asyn-
chronous base station.
The synchronisation within a cluster takes place in a master/slave procedure. This means that
one base station (sync master) defines the synchronisation cycle for one or more additional base
stations (sync slaves).
The synchronisation needs some kind of synchronisation hierarchy with the following criteria:
1 There must be one single and common root source for the synchronisation in the hierarchy
(sync level 1).
Template Module, Version 1.2, 11.09.2018,

2 With synchronisation over LAN there are just two levels needed (LAN-Master and LAN-Slave).
3 DECT synchronisation usually needs more than two levels and just one hop, because most
base stations won't be able to receive the DECT signal from the root source of the synchroni-
sation (sync level 1). DECT signal providing reference timer synchronisation is relayed along
a chain of multiple base stations, until it finally synchronises the last base station in a sync
chain.
4 The number of hops along any branch of DECT synchronisation tree should be minimised,
because any hop can introduce jitter in the synchronisation timer and could so lower the
quality of the synchronisation.

Base stations

DECT-based synchronisation
To relay DECT synchronisation signals from base station A to base station B, base station B must
be able to receive signals from base station A with sufficient signal quality.

DECT manager and base stations must be connected to the same Ethernet or virtual
LAN sharing a common broadcast domain.
A base station can synchronise with each base station on a higher sync level. The sync level
concept allows base stations to automatically select the best suitable base station (having a
lower sync level number) to receive synchronisation signal from. Simultaneously, it guarantees
a strictly limited number of hops along any branch in the synchronisation tree and to prevent
circles between automatically optimised synchronisation chains.
During configuration, assign one level in the synchronisation hierarchy (sync level) to each base
station. Sync level 1 is the highest level; this is the level of the sync master and appears only once
in each cluster. A base station always synchronises itself with a base station that has a better sync
level. If it sees several base stations with a better sync level, it synchronises itself with the base
station that provides the best signal quality. If it does not see any base station with a higher sync
level, it cannot synchronise.

LAN-based synchronisation
If the DECT connection between base stations seems to be not reliable enough to permanently
guarantee a stable DECT over the air synchronization, e.g., because they are separated by iron
doors or a firewall, you can determine that synchronisation should take place via LAN. In this
case the base station with the higher sync level will act as LAN master, the base station with the
lower sync level is a LAN slave. One base station must be explicitly be defined as LAN master.
Currently, it must be on DECT sync level 1.
Advantages of LAN synchronisation compared with DECT synchronisation:
• Higher flexibility in the arrangement of the base stations as no synchronisation chains need
to be formed.
• Fewer base stations required as the overlapping area of the base stations is smaller. The over-
lapping area for handset handover can be smaller, because neighboured base stations do
not need to receive each other in stable error free quality, but they must still be able to detect
each other for the process of dynamic channel selection.
• Configuration of the system is simplified as all base stations can be synchronised on one
synchronization master.

Requirements for LAN synchronisation

Minimum packet delay jitter is crucial for successful synchronisation over LAN. As multiple LAN
traffic parameters could have an impact on packet delay and its jitter, specific switches and
maximum number of switch hops are required, to guarantee sufficient maximum packet delay
jitter.
Consider the following:
• The less switch hops, the lower the transmission delay and its jitter will be.
• The higher the bandwidth or quality of used switches is regarding packet delay and its jitter,
the lower the packet delay and the lower the packet delay jitter will be.
• Enhanced packet processing logics (like L3 switching or packet inspection) could have signif-
icant negative impact on the resulting packet delay jitter. If possible, they should be deacti-
vated for Gigaset N870 IP PRO base stations connected switch ports.
• Significantly increased traffic load on a switch, in the range of the maximum throughput,
could have significant negative impact on the packet delay jitter.
• VLAN based prioritisation of LAN packets could be a fruitful measure to minimize packet
delay and its jitter for Gigaset N870 IP PRO base stations.
Hints regarding PTP deviation
LAN synchronisation is based on a two layer design:
• Native PTPv2 is used to synchronise a common reference timer along all base stations
involved.
Target quality benchmark to provide sufficient PTP synchronisation along the base stations,
is to have a PTP deviation lower than 500 ns (rms). For this PTP synchronisation a few single
deviations > 500 ns are accepted and might just generate first warnings. If the PTP sync
packet deviation does continuously exceed this limit of 500 ns, the PTP synchronisation is
considered broken and will lead to new start synchronisation procedure.
• Based on the PTP synchronisation LAN master and LAN slave adjust their DECT reference
timer to one common offset to the common PTP reference timer. This common offset will be
permanently monitored by a proprietary communication.
The target quality benchmark for this synchronisation level is to see reference timer devia-
tion by this DECT reference timer sync packets: DECT-LAN-Sync deviation lower than
1000 ns. A good mean value would be 500 ns (rms).
To meet this criteria the switches themselves do not necessarily need to be PTP aware. But the
network should consider the above mentioned guidelines to meet this criteria.

Scenario 2: Pure DECT synchronisation

Use such a configuration if your environment ensures a stable DECT over the
air synchronisation or your LAN does not fulfil the requirements for LAN
synchronisation.
Prior to installation of base stations for DECT synchronisation, you should have
an idea, where in the centre to plan the level 1 base station and in which
distances around the centre to place the next sync level's base station. To proof
and optimise this idea into a plan you should use a coverage measurement kit.

Configuration: Pure DECT synchronisation. Each base station can synchronise with a base
station on a higher level. If more than one base station is possible the base
station with the better signal is used. The base station in the centre of the
cluster is on DECT level 1. That reduces the amount of necessary sync levels.

Scenario 3: Mixed
Use such a configuration, if your environment is mainly able to synchronise via
DECT but there are particular circumstances which cannot always guarantee
reliable DECT synchronisation, e.g., a passage through a fire door.
For all base stations on levels lower than the LAN master you can individually
decide whether it should be synchronised via DECT or LAN.

Configuration: Mixed scenario. The base stations of the cluster are separated by a firewall. The
overlap area may be large enough for handover and dynamic channel selection
but not for synchronisation. Therefore the synchronisation between one base
station on each side of the firewall takes place via LAN. The other base station
are synchronised via DECT. As the LAN master must be on DECT level 1 the base
station 4 is used as LAN master.

Actions
Setting up the base station synchronisation
¤ Select the cluster to which the base should be assigned to from the Cluster option menu.
Base stations only synchronise within the same cluster, meaning that a handover of a
handset from one cluster to a neighbouring cluster is not possible. The DECT multicell system
can manage up to nine clusters.
¤ Select the synchronisation level for the base station from the DECT Level option menu.
DECT level 1 is the highest level and may appear only once in each cluster. A base station
always synchronises itself with a base station that has a better sync level. If it sees several
base stations with a better sync level, it synchronises itself with the base station that has the
strongest signal. If it does not see any base station with a higher sync level, it cannot synchro-
nise.
¤ Mark the LAN Master check box, if the base station should act as LAN master.
If synchronisation via LAN is used, there must be one base station acting as LAN master.
Currently the LAN master can only be configured on DECT level 1.

¤ Select between UDP, TCP and TLS.
UDP (User Datagram Protocol) UDP is a non session-based protocol. UDP does not establish a
fixed connection. The data packets ("datagrams") are sent as a broadcast. The recipient is
solely responsible for making sure the data is received. The sender is not notified about
whether it is received or not.
TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) TCP is a session-based transmission protocol. It sets up,
monitors and terminates a connection between sender and recipient for transporting
data.
TLS (Transport Layer Security) TLS is a protocol for encrypting data transmissions on the
Internet. TLS is a superordinate transport protocol.

Use SIP Security (SIPS)

Only if TLS is selected. SIPS enhances SIP with TLS/SSL encryption. Using SIPS makes it more diffi-

VoIP providers provide SIP server redundancy for load balancing and service reliability. SIP
servers can be identified by DNS using different queries:
A Records just the specified IP addresses and the related port numbers.
SRV + A Finds an available server port for the specified proxy and registration server. DNS
SRV allows a client to only have to know what type of service it is looking for instead
of the actual server.

Network data of the service provider

Outbound proxy mode
The DECT IP multicell system allows you to configure an outbound proxy. Despite any other SIP
protocol rules, if activated (Always), the system will always send all outgoing requests towards
this outbound proxy. It can be an outbound proxy in the local network provided by the local
network provider or in the public network provided by the network/VoIP provider.
¤ Specify when the outbound proxy should be used.
Always: All signalling and voice data sent by the system is sent to the outbound proxy.
Never: The outbound proxy is not used.
If the further outbound proxy configuration is identical to the proxy and registrar configuration
it is useless and will be ignored.

The DHCP option 120 ”sip server” sent by a SIP phone would internally overrule the
outbound proxy address and port setting. Outbound proxy mode is still and exclu-

DTMF over VoIP Connections

DTMF signalling (Dual Tone Multi Frequency) is required, for example, for querying and control-
ling certain network mailboxes via digit codes, for controlling of automatic directory enquiries
or for remote operation of the local answering machine.
To send DTMF signals via VoIP, you must define how key codes should be converted into and sent
as DTMF signals: as audible information via the speech channel or as a "SIP Info" message.
Ask your VoIP provider which type of DTMF transmission it supports.

Settings for codecs

The voice quality of VoIP calls is mainly determined by the codec used for the transmission and
the available bandwidth of your network connection. A "better" codec (better voice quality)
means more data needs to be transferred, i.e. it requires a network connection with a larger
bandwidth. You can change the voice quality by selecting the voice codecs your phone is to use,
and specifying the order in which the codecs are to be suggested when a VoIP connection is
established. Default settings for the codecs used are stored in your phone; one setting optimised
for low bandwidths and one for high bandwidths.
Both parties involved in a phone connection (caller/sender and recipient) must use the same
voice codec. The voice codec is negotiated between the sender and the recipient when estab-
lishing a connection.
Active codecs / Available codecs
The following voice codecs are supported:
G.722 Outstanding voice quality. The G.722 wideband voice codec works at the same bit rate
as PCMA/PCMU (64 kbit/s per voice connection) but at a higher sampling rate (16 kHz).
To enable wideband connections via G.722 you have to activate the codec explicitly on
the Telephony – VoIP page ( page 67)
PCMA/ (Pulse Code Modulation) Excellent voice quality (comparable with ISDN). The required
PCMU bandwidth is 64 kbit/s per voice connection.
PCMA (G.711 a law): Used in Europe and most countries outside of USA.
PCMU (G.711 μ law): Used in USA.
G.729A Average voice quality. The necessary bandwidth is less than or equal to 8 kbit/s per
voice connection.

Activate/deactivate a codec:
¤ Select the required codec from the Available codecs/Active codecs list and click on / .
Define the sequence in which the codecs should be used:
¤ In the Active codecs list select the required codec and click on / to move it up/down.

Additionally, the page shows the total amount of DECT managers and DECT managers that are
currently ready to register handsets. DECT managers are set in registration status Registering
when a registration process is started automatically according to the time settings on this page
or when registering handsets manually.

the DECT manager should stay in registration mode. Default: 3 min.
Closing the window and resetting the timers
¤ Click on Close . . . the registration window is closed, the time settings are reset.

When the first handset tries to register, the base closes the registration window and
finalises the registration within a very few seconds. During this time any second
handset registration attempt would be rejected. When the first handset is fully regis-
tered the base re-opens the registration window as long as defined with the Regis-
tration start time and Registration duration parameters.
If all handsets try to register in parallel, a lot of them will enter the base one by one
and so will be successfully registered, but others might enter while another registra-
tion is not yet completed and so they will be rejected.
Template Module, Version 1.2, 11.09.2018

Security settings
The phone system supports the establishment of secure voice connections over the internet via
TLS certificates. Thereby, public and private keys are used to encrypt and decrypt the messages
that are exchanged between SIP entities. The public key is contained within the certificate of an
IP entity and is available for everyone. The private key is kept secret and is never revealed to
anyone. The server certificate and the private key must be uploaded to the base stations.
¤ Click on Browse... and choose the file containing the certificate or the private key from the
file system of your computer or network click on Upload . . . the file is uploaded and
shown in the appropriate list.
SIP security password
¤ If your private key is protected by a password, enter it here.

Quality of Service (QoS)

The voice quality depends on the priority of the voice data in the IP network. Prioritising the VoIP
data packets is done using the QoS protocol DiffServ (Differentiated Services). DiffServ defines a
number of classes for the quality of service and, within these classes, various priority levels for
which specific prioritisation procedures are defined.
You can specify different QoS values for SIP and RTP packets. SIP packets contain the signalling
data, while RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) is used for the voice transfer.
¤ Enter your chosen QoS values in the SIP ToS / DiffServ and RTP ToS / DiffServ fields. Value
range: 0 - 63.
Common values for VoIP (default setting):
SIP 34 High service class for fast switching of the data flow (Expedited Flow)
RTP 46 Highest service class for fast forwarding of data packets (Expedited Forwarding)

Do not change these values without consulting your network operator first. A higher
value does not necessarily mean a higher priority. The value determines the service
class, not the priority. The prioritisation procedure used in each case meets the
requirements of this class and is not necessarily suitable for transferring voice data.

Audio quality
The phone system allows the user to make calls with excellent voice quality using the wideband
codec G.722. One base station enables a maximum of five wideband calls.
¤ Settings Telephony Audio

Call transfer
Participants can transfer a call to another participant as long as the PBX/provider supports this
function. The call is transferred using the handset menu (via the display key) or using the R key.
You can expand or change the settings for call transfer.
Call transfer via R key
Activated: Users can connect two external callers with each other by pressing the R key. The
connections with both parties are terminated.
Transfer call by on-hook
Activated: The two participants are connected with one another when the user presses the end
call key. The intermediary's connections with the participants are terminated.
Determine transfer target address
¤ Select how the transfer target address (Refer-To URI) is to be derived:
From transfer target's AOR (Address of Record)
From transfer target's transport address (Contact URI)
Most common PBX platforms show good results by using the AOR as transfer target address.
In case there are problems with transfer especially via transparent proxies, rather than call
switching PBX, it might be worthwhile to test with transfer target address derived from transfer
target’s transport address.

Access Code
You may have to enter an access code for external calls (external prefixes e.g., "0"). You can save
this access code in the DECT manager configuration. These settings apply to all registered hand-
sets.

If you use VoIP to make a call to the fixed line, you may also have to dial the area code for local
calls (depending on the provider).
You can set your telephone system so that the access code is automatically predialled when any
VoIP call is made in the same local area, and also for national long-distance calls. This means that
the access code is set before all phone numbers that do not start with 0 – even when dialling
numbers from the directory and other lists.
You can change these settings if required.

Name filter
The name filter decides which attribute is used for the search.
Example:
(displayName=%). The percent sign (%) is replaced by the name or part of the name entered
by the user.
If a user enters the letter "A", for example, all entries in which the attribute displayName
begins with "A" are searched for in the LDAP database. If the user then enters a "b", entries are
searched in which the displayName begins with "Ab".
Number filter
The number filter stipulates the criteria for the automatic completion of telephone numbers.
Example:
(|(telephoneNumber=%)(mobile=%)). The percent sign (%) is then replaced by the part of the
telephone number entered by the user.
When dialling, if a user enters the numbers "123", for example, all telephone numbers that
begin with "123" are searched for in the LDAP database. The telephone number is completed
with the addition of information from the database.
Additional filters
You can set two additional filters that will be offered to the user in order to specify the search
more detailed.
¤ In the additional name fields enter the attribute name.
¤ In the corresponding value fields enter the attribute values.
Example:
Additional filter #1 name City
Additional filter #1 value (|(l=%))
Additional filter #2 name Street
Additional filter #2 value (|(street=%))
In addition to the fields defined in the Name filter parameter, the City and the Street fields
are provided to the user. The user input for City is passed to the LDAP server in the I attribute,
the user input for Street is passed in the street attribute.

Display format
In the Display format field you can stipulate how the search result is to be displayed on the
handset.
¤ Enter combinations of different name and number attributes and special characters. You can
Template Module, Version 1.2, 11.09.2018

select common formats from the attributes that are listed in the Configuration of directory
items section of the page.
For the attribute values to be shown for the required attribute, the attribute name must be
preceded by a percent sign (%).

Attributes
A range of attributes are defined in the LDAP database for a directory entry, e.g. surname, first
name, telephone number, address, company, etc. The quantity of all attributes which can be
saved in one entry is stored in the relevant LDAP server scheme. In order to be able to access
attributes or define search filters, you must know the attributes and their designation in the
LADP server. The majority of attribute designations are standardised, however specific attributes
can also be defined.
¤ For each field of a directory entry that should be displayed on the handsets enter the name
of the corresponding LDAP attribute. Multiple attributes can be separated by commas.

Provisioning and configuration

Only available in the Integrator user interface.
Provisioning is the process for uploading the necessary configuration and account data to the
VoIP phones (here the DECT bases). This is done by means of profiles. A profile is a configuration
file that contains VoIP phone-specific settings, VoIP provider data as well as user-specific
content. It has to be available on an HTTP provisioning server which is accessible in the public
(Internet) or local network.
Auto-configuration is defined as the mode of operation by which the telephone system
connects automatically to a server and downloads both provider-specific parameters (such as
the URL of the SIP server) and user-specific parameters (such as the user name and password)
and stores them in its non-volatile memory. Auto-configuration is not necessarily limited to the
parameters required for doing VoIP telephony. Auto-configuration can also be used to configure
other parameters, e.g. settings for online service, if the VoIP phones support these features.
However, for technical reasons auto-provisioning is not possible for all configuration parameters
of the phone.

sioning profiles for Gigaset phones: wiki.gigasetpro.com

The page allows you to organise the certificates used for secure internet communication and to
define the credentials for HTTP authentication.
¤ Settings System Security

Certificates
The phone system supports the establishment of secure data connections on the Internet with
the TLS security protocol (Transport Layer Security). With TLS, the client (the phone) uses certif-
icates to identify the server. These certificates must be stored on the base stations.
Accept all certificates
¤ Mark the Yes radio button, if you want to accept all certificates.
Server certificates / CA certificates
The lists contain the server certificates or CA certificates that have been certified by a certifica-
tion authority (CA). The certificates in both lists have already been implemented by default or
have been downloaded via the Web configurator and are classed as valid, i.e., have been
accepted.
If one of the certificates becomes invalid, e.g., because it has expired, it is transferred to the
Invalid certificates list.

The firmware update may take up a longer period. Do not disconnect the devices
from the local network during this time.

For test reasons (e.g. for testing a new release) it is possible to have a specific firmware
version on a DECT manager subsystem which may be different from the rest of the
system.
Handover between DECT manager systems is only possible if they have a matching
protocol version.
A DECT manager with protocol version different to the system integrator cannot start
it's service because it is not interoperable to the system integrator. It just could do a
software update to a matching software and protocol version.

ECO DECT
ECO DECT is an environment-friendly technology which reduces the power consumption and
enables a variable reduction of transmission power.
DECT Radiation power
¤ Set the DECT radiation power to your needs:
Maximum The device range is set to maximum (default). This guarantees the best
range: connection between the handset and the base stations. In idle status, the
handset will not send radio signals. Only the base station will maintain
contact with the handset via a low wireless signal. During a call, the trans-
mission power automatically adapts to the distance between the base
station and handset. The smaller the distance to the base, the lower the
radiation.
Limited range: The radiation is reduced by up to 80 %. This will also reduce the range.

Migration

Migration
In order to migrate a small or medium N870 IP PRO Multicell System multicell system with one
single DECT manager into a multi DECT manager installation, please perform the following
steps:
1 Export the base station and handset configuration of your current installation
¤ Settings Base stations Administration (¢ page 38)
¤ Settings Mobile devices Administration (¢ page 58).
2 Import the integrator virtual machine (*.ova file) into hypervisor (¢ page 14).
3 Define the device role for the devices that are defined to act as DECT manager in the future
(¢ page 15).
4 Add DECT managers to the Integrator’s administration
¤ Settings DECT Manager Administration (¢ page 28).
5 Register the DECT managers on the Integrator
¤ Settings System Integrator Config (¢ page 33).
6 Import the base station and handset configuration into the new configuration
¤ Settings Base stations Administration (¢ page 38)
¤ Settings Mobile devices Administration (¢ page 58).
7 Set up the new base station synchronisation hierarchy
¤ Settings Base stations Synchronisation (¢ page 42).
8 If necessary, set up cross-cluster synchronisation via DECT manager synchronisation
¤ Settings DECT Manager Synchronisation (¢ page 34).
During migration the base station synchronisation will be lost. Ongoing calls would
be cancelled. Please ensure, that the phone system is not in use during the migra-
tion procedure.

The procedure only applies to the migration of a first DECT manager to a new multi
DECT manager system. The handsets of a second system imported into the multi
DECT manager system cannot import their old system PARI into the new multi DECT
manager installation, thus these handset will be imported as "to-register" and need
to repeat on air DECT registration procedure.
Base station import of a second system does not need repetition of base station regis-
tration.

Using a handset connected to an N870 IP PRO base

The functions of your N870 IP PRO are available on the registered handsets. The functions of the
telephone system are added to the handset menu. Handset-specific functions, e.g., local direc-
tory or organiser, are not described here. Information about this will be found in the relevant
handset user guide. The availability of functions or their designations may differ on individual
handsets.

For information about which Gigaset handsets support the complete functionality of
the N870 IP PRO muliticell system please refer to wiki.gigasetpro.com.

Making calls
You can make calls using any handset registered to your N870 IP PRO.
Prerequisite: You are located in the cell of at least one of the base stations registered to the tele-
phone system.
The cells of the base stations together form the DECT wireless network of the telephone system.
You can initiate or answer calls on a handset across the whole wireless network and change cells
during a call (handover).
Prerequisite for handover: The base stations involved must be assigned to the same cluster and
must be synchronised (¢ page 42).
Each handset is assigned a send and receive connection (¢ page 61).
If your N870 IP PRO is connected to a PBX that permits the formation of groups, VoIP connections
can also be assigned to groups. In this case, you will also receive calls on your handset that have
been sent to your group number.
The N870 IP PRO uses a VoIP PBX Communication System or the services of a VoIP provider for
Internet telephony. The availability of some phone functions depends on whether they are
supported by the PBX/provider and whether they have been enabled. If necessary, you can
obtain a description of the services from the operator of your PBX.

Depending on the specifications of your PBX, you may need to dial an access code for
calls outside the area covered by your VoIP PBX (¢ page 68).

LDAP Search base (BaseDN)

The LDAP Search base (BaseDN) parameter specifies the starting point for the search in the
LDAP directory tree. This starting point must be defined on the LDAP server and entered here for
the LDAP client according to the server configuration. BaseDN is a special LDAP name which
represents an object including its position in a hierarchical directory.
BaseDN is used to define which section of the hierarchical LDAP database is to be searched.
Access to the entire directory can be enabled (e.g. to the corporate directory) or only to a subdi-
rectory (e.g. the directory of a particular organisational unit).
BaseDN is created from series of RDNs (Relative Distinguished Names) found by walking up the
directory information tree.
The BaseDN is specified as follows:
• The directory hierarchy is specified from left to right from the lowest level to the highest, e.g.
object, organisational unit, organisation, domain.
• A hierarchical level has the following format: keyword=object, e.g. cn=PhoneBook.
• Hierarchical levels are separated by commas.
• It must be unique in the directory information tree.
The following objects are often used as hierarchical levels:
cn: common name
ou: organisational unit
o: organisation
c: country
dc: domain component
But other objects can also be used. For this parameter you require information on the structure
of the LDAP server.
For the meaning of the objects, see section Filters ¢ page 105
Examples:
Starting point: Object PhoneBook, in the domain example.com
Definition: cn=PhoneBook,dc=example,dc=com

Starting point: Object PhoneBook in the subdirectory sales/support, in the domain

example.sales.com.

Filters
With filters you define criteria by which the phone searches for certain objects in the LDAP data-
base
• The name filter determines which attributes are used in the search for directory entries.
• The number filter specifies which attributes are used for the automatic search in the LDAP
database when phone numbers are entered.
• Additional filters can be defined to enable detailed search

The LDAP protocol offers various setting options for filters and search functions, e.g.
wildcards, fixed character strings and further operators. For full details see the
RFC 4515.

LDAP directory – configuration example

Filter format
A filter consists of one or more criteria. A criterion defines the LDAP attribute in which the
entered string is to be searched for, e.g. sn=%. The percent sign (%) is a placeholder for the user
input.

Operators
Following operators can be used to create filters:
Operator Meaning Example
= Equality (attribute1=abc)
!= Negation (!(attribute1=abc))
>= Greater than (attribute1>=1000)
<= Less than (attribute1<=1000)
~ Proximity (LDAP server dependent) (attribute1~=abc)
* Wildcard (attr1=ab*) or (attr1=*c) or (attr1=*b*)

Multiple criteria can be connected with logical AND (&) and/or OR operators (|). The logical oper-
ators "&" and "|" are placed in front of the criteria. The criterion must be placed in brackets and
the whole expression must be bracketed again. AND and OR operations can also be combined.
Examples
AND operation: (&(givenName=%)(mail=%))
Searches for entries in which the first name and e-mail address begin with the
characters entered by the user.
OR operation: (|(displayName=%)(sn=%))
Searches for entries in which the display name or surname begins with the
characters entered by the user.
Combined (|(&(displayName=%)(mail=%))(&(sn=%)(mail=%)))
operation: Searches for entries in which the display name and e-mail address or the
surname and e-mail address begin with the characters entered by the user.

Special characters
It is also possible to find entries containing special characters. If you want to compare these char-
acters within an attribute string use backslash (\) and a 2-digit hex ASCII code as follows:
Special character ASCII code Special character ASCII code
Template Module, Version 1.2, 11.09.2018,

( \28 = \3d
) \29 & \26

LDAP directory – configuration example

Name filter
The name filter determines which attributes are used for the search in the LDAP database.

Examples:
(displayName=%) The attribute displayName is used for the search.
The percent sign (%) is replaced with the name or part of the name
entered by the user.
If you enter e.g. the character "A", the phone searches the LDAP database
for all entries in which the attribute displayName begins with "A". If you
then enter a "b", it searches for entries in which the displayName begins
with "Ab".
(|(cn=%)(sn=%)) The attributes cn or sn are used for the search.
If you enter e.g. the character "n", the phone searches the LDAP database
for all entries in which the attribute cn or sn begins with "n". If you then
enter an "o", it searches for entries in which the attribute cn or sn begins
with "no".

LDAP does not distinguish between upper and lower case in the search request.

Number filter
The number filter defines which attributes are used in the automatic search for a directory entry.
The automatic search is performed when a phone number is entered and in the case of an
incoming call with calling line identification. If an entry is found for a phone number, the display
shows the name instead of the number.
Entries are only found and displayed if the stored phone number matches the entered phone
number exactly.

Examples:
(homePhone=%) The attribute homePhone is used for the search.
The percent sign (%) is replaced with the phone number entered by the
user.
If you enter the numbers "1234567" when dialling, the phone searches the
LDAP database for entries with the private phone number "1234567".
Template Module, Version 1.2, 11.09.2018

(|(telephoneNumber=%)(mobile=%)(homePhone=%))
The attributes telephoneNumber, mobile and homePhone are used for
the search.
If you enter the numbers "1234567" when dialling, the phone searches the
LDAP database for entries with the private or mobile or work number
"1234567".

LDAP directory – configuration example

Attributes
For a directory entry (an object), a series of attributes are defined in the LDAP database, e.g.
surname, first name, phone number, address, company etc. The set of all attributes that can be
stored for an entry is stored in the schema of the relevant LDAP server. To access attributes or
define search filters, you must know the attributes and their names in the LDAP server. Most
attribute names are standardised, but there can also be specific ones defined.
Which attributes can actually be displayed on a phone depends on
• which attributes are defined for an entry in the LDAP database,
• which attributes are set in the web configurator for display on the phone,
• which attributes can be displayed on the phone or handset.

Available attributes on handsets or phones

The following table shows the attributes that could be used for a directory entry on a handset or
phone. Of course, the set of attributes that are actually shown depends on the specific handset
used.

LDAP directory – configuration example

Specifying attributes for display on the phone

In the web configurator you specify which of the available attributes from the LDAP database are
to be queried and displayed on the phone.
¤ For each attribute of a directory entry, select the appropriate attribute from the LDAP data-
base. There are predefined settings at choice. Alternatively you can enter manually a
different attribute defined in the LDAP database for this field.
¤ If an attribute is not to be displayed, select the option none.
In the Additional attribute field, you can enter an additional attribute that is available in the
LDAP database and should be displayed. If the attribute is a number to be dialled, the option
Additional attribute can be dialled must be checked.
The attributes First name and Surname will be used for the following functions:
• Display in the list of directory entries in the form Surname, First name
• Alphabetical sorting of the directory entries on the phone
• Name display of a caller or call participant
If the database query only produces one of the attribute values (e.g. because a contact is only
stored with their first name), only this one will be displayed.

Display on the handsets

If one or more LDAP directories are set up in the web configurator, they will be available on the
handsets with the following functions:
• Scroll through directory or search for directory entries,
• Display directory entries with detailed information (no edit or delete),
• Dial phone numbers directly from the directory,
• Add directory entries to the local directory.
When a phone number is entered or a call comes in, the directory is automatically searched for
an entry that matches the phone number. If an entry is found, the name is displayed instead of
the phone number.

To display the corporate directory on the telephone screen

The corporate directory is assigned to the INT key: press

Depending on the settings for the handset in the web configurator (¢ page 62), you
,

may also be able to access a corporate directory via the directory key .
Template Module, Version 1.2, 11.09.2018

Some handsets provide access also via the display menu. For details, see the user
guide for your phone.
