Field Name Values Description
Country/
RegionUSA, Japan, UK,
CustomName of a country or region that
uses a certain set of tone pairs for
dial tone, ring tone, busy tone, and
‘unobtainable’ tone (fast busy
tone). In some cases, the tone-pair
scheme denoted by a country name
may also be used outside of that
country.  The “Custom” option
(button) assures that any tone-
pairing scheme worldwide can be
accommodated.

used to denote phone ringing,
phone busy, connection
unobtainable (fast busy), and  dial
tone (continuous and  described  as
“0“).  Default values differ for
different countries/regions.
Although most cadences have only
two parts (an  “on” duration and
an “off” duration),  some telephony
cadences have four parts.  Most
cadences, then, are expressed as
two iterations of a two-part
sequence.  Although this is
redundant, it is necessary to allow
for expression of 4-part cadences.
Custom

bring up the Custom Tone Pair
Settings screen.  This screen allows
the user to specify tone pair
attributes that are not found in any
of the standard national/regional
telephony toning schemes.

13. Set Custom Tones and Cadences (optional) . The Regional
Parameters dialog box has a secondary dialog box that allows you to
customize DTMF tone pairs to create unique ring-tones, dial-tones,
busy-tones or “unobtainable” tones (fast busy signal) for your system.
This screen allows the user to specify tone-pair attributes that are not
found in any of the standard national/regional telephony toning
schemes.  To access this customization feature, click on the Custom
button on the  Regional Parameters screen.

14. Set SMTP Parameters (Log Reports by Email).  The SMTP
Parameters screen is applicable when the VOIP administrator has
chosen to receive log reports by email (this is done by selecting the
“SMTP” checkbox in the Others screen and selecting “Enable SMTP”
in the SMTP Parameters screen.).  The SMTP Parameters screen can
be reached by pulldown menu, keyboard shortcut, or sidebar.

MultiVOIP as Email Sender.  When SMTP is used, the MultiVOIP will
actually be given its own email account (with Login Name and
Password) on some mail server connected to the IP network.  Using this
account, the MultiVOIP will then send out email messages containing
log report information.  The “Recipient” of the log report email is
ordinarily the VoIP administrator.  Because the MultiVOIP cannot
receive email, a “Reply-To” address must also be set up.  Ordinarily,
the “Reply-To” address is that of a technician who has access to the
mail server or MultiVOIP or both, and the VoIP administrator might
also be designated as the “Reply-To” party.  The main function of the
Reply-To address is to receive error or failure messages regarding the
emailed reports.

appear for all emailed log reports for
this MultiVOIP unit.
Reply-To
Addressemail addressUser specified.  This email address
functions as a source email identifier
for the MultiVOIP, which, of course,
cannot usefully receive email
messages.  The Reply-To address
provides a destination for returned
messages indicating the status of
messages sent by the MultiVOIP
(esp. to indicate when log report
email was undeliverable or when an
error has occurred).
Recipient
Addressemail addressUser specified.  Email address at
which VOIP administrator will
receive log reports.
Mail CriteriaCriteria for sending log summary by
email.
The log summary email will be sent
out either when the user-specified
number of log messages has
accumulated, or once every day or
multiple days, which ever comes first.
Number of
RecordsintegerThis is the number of log records
that must accumulate to trigger the
sending of a log-summary email.
Number of
DaysintegerThis is the number of days that must
pass before triggering the sending of
a log-summary email.

The SMTP Parameters dialog box has a secondary dialog box, Custom
Fields,  that allows you to customize email log messages for the
MultiVOIP.  The MultiVOIP software logs data about many aspects of
the call traffic going through the MultiVOIP.  The Custom Fields screen
lets you pick which aspects will be included in the email log reports.
