FXO interface configuration task list
There are numerous configurable parameters that apply to the FXO interface. The basic commands are listed
with a short description of their function.
•
ring-number on-caller-id—Determines if the FXO interface will go off-hook upon reception of a speci-
fied caller-ID.
•
use profile pstn—Defining and applying an alternate PSTN profile for a specific FXO interface
•
dial-after—Selecting whether the FXO interface dials after a pre-defined time or after detection of dial-tone
•
ring-number—Defining how many rings are received before answering an incoming call
•
disconnect-signal—Selecting the method of determining a call has been disconnected
•
connect-signal—Choosing how to detect the connection on the remote end of an outgoing call
•
route—Determining the destination (interface) for the incoming call
FXO off-hook on caller ID
A new option has been added to the command “ring-number”. Instead of specifying the number of ring bursts
to wait before going off-hook (for calls coming in through FXO), it is now also possible to go off-hook upon
reception of the caller-ID. With this setting, if a caller ID is available, the time before FXO goes off-hook to
accept the call can be decreased by 2 to 3 seconds. If no caller ID is detected, the call is accepted upon recep-
tion of the second ring-burst.
Mode: Interface FXO
Configuring an alternate PSTN profile (optional)
The PSTN profile has the following configurable parameters:
• Echo canceller (can be enabled or disabled)
• Output gain, which sets the volume of the output of the PSTN interface and port, in this case, FXO.
To define an alternate PSTN profile for the FXO interface, first create the profile according to instructions in
chapter 48, “PSTN profile configuration” on page 597. Then you can apply the newly defined PSTN profile to
a specific FXO interface with the
use command as follows.
First enter the Interface FXO configuration mode.
