Using Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP) Infrastructure Requirements Although the DPH-80 MGCP phone will work in any type of LAN network, a 100mbps, switched network is more suitable for providing good quality voice communications. MGCP phones need a Media Gateway Controller or Call Agent or Notified Entity. To operate properly, the DPH-80 needs a set of IP parameters such as IP address, subnet mask, gateway address, and DNS server address. These parameters can be configured either statically through a browser or dynamically through DHCP or PPPoE. A DHCP or PPPoE server in the local LAN is required to provide these parameters. The D-Link MGCP phone has many configurable parameters. These parameters can be configured through any Java-enabled Internet browser (Netscape 6.2 or above, IE 5.0 or above). If your LAN network has a firewall and NAT, they should support MGCP to make and receive calls from outside your LAN network. A TFTP server is required to support remote software upgrades. Please check with your service provider for further information on upgrading your device. Configuring the MGCP Phone Once you have the above infrastructure in place, you can power up the MGCP phone. The MGCP phone will play the progress tone until it receives a response from Media Gateway Controller. If it does not receive the dial tone within the expected time, the MGCP phone is not configured. However, the MGCP phone is accessible through an Internet browser for configuration. 11

Using Media Gateway Control
Protocol (MGCP)
Infrastructure Requirements
Although the DPH-80 MGCP phone will work in any type of LAN network, a
100mbps, switched network is more suitable for providing good quality voice
communications.
MGCP phones need a Media Gateway Controller or Call Agent or Notified Entity.
To operate properly, the DPH-80 needs a set of IP parameters such as IP
address, subnet mask, gateway address, and DNS server address. These
parameters can be configured either statically through a browser or dynamically
through DHCP or PPPoE. A DHCP or PPPoE server in the local LAN is required
to provide these parameters.
The D-Link MGCP phone has many configurable parameters. These parameters
can be configured through any Java-enabled Internet browser (Netscape 6.2 or
above, IE 5.0 or above).
If your LAN network has a firewall and NAT, they should support MGCP to make
and receive calls from outside your LAN network.
A
TFTP
server is required to support remote software upgrades. Please check
with your service provider for further information on upgrading your device.
Configuring the MGCP Phone
Once you have the above infrastructure in place, you can power up the MGCP
phone. The MGCP phone will play the progress tone until it receives a response
from Media Gateway Controller. If it does not receive the dial tone within the
expected time, the MGCP phone is not configured. However, the MGCP phone
is accessible through an Internet browser for configuration.
