Overview MultiVOIP User Guide

How to Use This Manual. In short, use the index and the examples.
When our readers crack open this large manual, they generally need
one of two things: information on a very specific software setting or
technical parameter (about telephony or IP) or they need help when
setting up phonebooks for their voip systems. The index gives quick
access to voip settings and parameters. It’s detailed. Use it. The best
way to learn about phonebooks is to wade through examples like those
in our chapters on T1 (North American standard) Phonebooks and E1
(Euro standard) Phonebooks. Also, the quick setup info of the printed
Quick Start Guide is replicated in this manual for your convenience.
Finally, this manual is meant to be comprehensive. If you notice that
something important is lacking, please let us know.
Additional Resources. The MultiTech web site (www.multitech.com)
offers both a list of Frequently Asked Questions (the MultiVOIP FAQ)
and a collection of resolutions of issues that MultiVOIP users have
encountered (these are Troubleshooting Resolutions in the searchable
Knowledge Base).
Variable Model/Version Icon and Typography. The MultiVOIP
product family is a coordinated set of products that can operate with
each other in a seamless fashion. For example, both the digital and
analog MultiVOIP units use the same graphic user interface (GUI) in
the MultiVOIP configuration software and both operate under a single
GUI in the MultiVoipManager remote management software. Because
this is the case, the various model numbers and version numbers of
MultiVOIP family products will each appear in various dialog boxes
and commands. But instead of showing these dialog boxes once for
each model in this manual, we substitute the following icon.

It indicates that, whatever MultiVOIP model you are using, all details
except the very model and version numbers themselves will be the
same regardless of the MultiVOIP model used. Also, in some cases, we
will use other typographic devices, like blank underlining
(“MultiVOIP ____”) to denote information that applies to any
and all of the products in this product family.
