Connecting to the UC320W and Getting Started Logging In Connect a PC to the UC320W with an Ethernet cable in one of the 4 ports provided on the back of the unit. Verify that the management PC obtains an IP address in the 192.168.10.x/24 subnet, then open a browser session to the UC320W with the URL...
First Login The first time the administrator logs into the UC320W, a dialog is displayed that prompts the administrator to change the “cisco” login ID and its password. For security purposes, neither “cisco” nor “admin” may be used in either the ID or...
Software Updates May be Available If software updates are available, a dialog will prompt the administrator to download the new versions and to install them. Alternatively, “Install Later” may be chosen.
The administrator simply clicks the “play” button displayed in the middle of the Welcome window. Alternatively the administrator may launch the UC320W Configuration Wizard by clicking “Skip” in the upper right of the window.
DHCP server providing IP addressing services to devices connected to the UC320W. When an option is selected, an “Apply Now” button will appear. The main goal of this initial network configuration is to provide IP addresses, with DHCP, to the devices that will connect to the UC320W but without causing conflicts with existing DHCP servers.
Warning When the Apply Now button for the network topology option is selected, a warning dialing will appear. Note the warning and continue by pressing the “OK” button:...
Upgrade Firmware The next task in the configuration process is to update system software, if this was not done already. The installer may skip this task and proceed by clicking “Skip”. Note that updating the software at some later time may require additional configuration at that time in order to use features added in the new release:...
When all devices have been found the administrator should click “All Devices Connected” to continue. Note that if not all devices are connected at this point, or if the UC320W does not discover a device that is connected, they can be added later on in the configuration...
Begin Configuration With the devices connected and recognized by the UC320W, the initial “pre- requisite” setup is complete and the configuration wizard will begin. Pressing “Begin Configuration:” will launch the wizard:...
Site The first section of the configuration wizard greets the administrator and sets up some global system characteristics. Clicking Next will launch the configuration utility:...
Regional Settings The regional settings window allows localization of services to country, the selection of a 7- or 10-digit dial plan, and the system’s timezone. The administrator should make changes as required and then advance to the next screen with the Next button.
System Access The System Access window offers the opportunity to change the UC320W administrator’s password, enable remote management through the WAN interface, and to enable management through the wireless interface. These should be enabled as required. Clicking Next will continue the wizard:...
Automatic Backup UC320W has an automatic configuration backup utility that writes to a USB key inserted into either of the USB ports. The time of day and frequency of the backup can be specified. Establishing a regular backup to capture the configuration and any changes is strongly recommended.
Site Section Summary After the Automatic Backup policy is established, the configuration wizard displays a summary of Site settings. Corrections can be made by clicking the Back button, or the configuration can be continued by clicking Next:...
Devices The devices discovered in the initial setup process are displayed in the Devices windows with the option to manually add additional phones that may not be already connected to the system. The option to add SPA8800 FXO gateways is also available in this page.
PBX/Key System The PBX/Key System menu option allows the administrator to determine how the UC320W handles shared FXO lines. Curious administrators should consult the online help system for a detailed explanation. The vast majority of Cbeyond customers should select the default “Blend” mode which offers the features of both PBX and Key systems.
Day/Night Features The Day/Night Features window allows the administrator to configure how incoming calls are handled at different times of the day and night. The default setting is to enable a simple automated attendant all the time and to use the same call routing plan all the time.
Internal Dialing The Internal Dialing window lets the administrator configure the first basic elements of the UC320W dial plan. The default settings were accepted for purposes of this document, as an example only. The online help system may be consulted for explanations of how to use the various options.
Music The music task allows the administrator to determine when music on hold (MoH) is played out to a device. The administrator can also select the source of the MoH. Installers should note that the extension selected for the MoH should match the extension listed in the previous “Internal Dialing”...
Telephone Section Summary The section summary displays the choices that were made in the Telephony configuration. The administrator may select Back to make changes or Next to proceed:...
Ports and Trunks The Ports and Trunks configuration section identifies how the UC320W is configured to work with Cbeyond’s SIPconnect service. Clicking Next will continue:...
Line (FXO) Ports UC320W has four (4) FXO ports that can be used with LEC POTS lines for inbound and outbound calling. Cbeyond customers who leverage Cbeyond’s integrated voice and data service, which is delivered through a Cisco IAD or ISR, do generally not use these.
FXS Ports UC320W also has an FXS port that can be used for something like a Fax machine or modem line. The FXS Ports window allows the installer to enable or disable the port. If enabled, it will also require the assignment of an extension later in the configuration.
DIDs purchased. A 12-line service, for example, would set “call capacity” to 12. Note that the licensed features of the UC320W itself must permit setting the call capacity to what has been purchased from Cbeyond. In other words, an 8-line UC320W will not support a 12-line Cbeyond service.

“main number” of the customer. Password: Provide in Cbeyond’s initial setup documentation, this is the password required to authenticate the customer’s UC320W to Cbeyond’s SIP proxy server. SRV Record Lookup: Should be checked. SRV Auto Prefix: Should be left unchecked.
Page 34
NAT Mapping should be left unchecked in a “basic” Cbeyond installation where the Cbeyond IAD is the next hop for the UC320W. Installers should reference the online help for details about this option but it essentially enables a SIP ALG, requiring a static IP address for the purposes of NAT and allowing STUN server configuration.
Page 35
With the Systemwide SIP Parameters section selected, the administrator may select between codes and Fax relay options. For Cbeyond’s service the default G.711ulaw and passthrough should be accepted, respectively. Next will take the installer to the last task for configuring trunks:...
Outbound Trunks The Outbound Trunks window should only be used by installers who are configuring redundant SIP or FXO trunks to multiple providers. This configuration option will be rare for Cbeyond’s customers who should refer to the online help system or documentation on CCO for details on this configuration task. Clicking Next will continue to the section summary:...
Summary The Summary window displays the trunking options selected in the previous steps. Back allows corrections and Next will continue to the next configuration task:...
Users/Phones The next section of the configuration tool is Users/Phones, where users and phones are defined and associated with each other. Clicking Next will continue:...
Users Each of the users of the UC320W telephones should be defined in this task. Manual, interactive, user creation can be assisted with the clipboard icon located over the Voicemail column. Bulk user export/imports can be accomplished with the Download (CSV) and Import (CSV) icons, respectively. The use of these buttons is detailed in the online help system for the UC320W.
Assign Phones The Assign Phones task is the step in the configuration of the UC320W when physical IP phones discovered by the system, or added in the Updates/IP Phones task, are associated with User extensions. The task is relatively self-explanatory and online help can be referenced as well..
Users/Phones Summary The Users/Phones Summary screen simply presents a count of the number of users, assigned phones, and applied licenses. Clicking Next will advance to the detailed phone configuration section.
Shared FXO Lines Cbeyond SIPconnect customers generally do not employ FXO trunks. Online help may be consulted for those cases where an FXO line must be configured:...
Share Extensions Share extensions are of interest to SIPconnect configuration mainly from the standpoint, again, of knowing what needs to be referenced when placing calls and also in the dial plan configuration that will take place later in the process. Assigning shared extensions if straightforward.
As the title suggests, this window allows the assignment of additional local extensions to a user. Note that assigning additional extensions and voicemail boxes to a users consumes licensed resources on the UC320W. Installers should reference the online help system for additional guidance.
Summary Extension Buttons Summary simply presents a summary accounting of the assignments made in this of the configuration. Clicking Back will allow corrections. Next continues the configuration:...
Call Routing The call routing section is largely unimportant to SIPconnect configuration except for the Inbound Calls section where Cbeyond DIDs are mapped to local extensions. Other sections are optional, depend on customer requirements, and fall outside of SIPconnect requirements. These will not be shown in this document:...
Hunt Groups Hunt Groups allows for the definition of hunt groups of users of the UC320W. Note that using Hunt groups for inbound calls will consume DIDs when they are assigned to the local hunt group extensions:...
Auto Attendant The Auto Attendant task allows for detailed AA configuration. This is outside of the scope of SIPconnect configuration. Installers should reference the online help system:...
These Phone Numbers portion of the Inbound Calls screen. The default setting is for the UC320W to send all calls inbound on the DIDs to the AA. This is the “Default Route” for the calls.
Page 52
In the example system used for testing UC320W for Cbeyond, 3 DIDs are assigned to a test account that was applied to the test unit. The first DID, shown in the screenshot below, is 678-397-2544. This is the “main number” that is used to authenticate the SIP trunk and in this example remains assigned to the AA for general inbound calls.
Page 53
Clicking the Move button next to DID 678-397-2546 likewise creates a new Routing Group that can be labeled “Jane Doe”. The Ring drop down can then be used to select “Jane Doe (102)” as the extension to map to incoming calls to DID 678-397- 2546.
Call Routing Summary The Call Routing Summary page displays the choices and routing assignments made in the Call Routing section of the configuration Wizard. Clicking Next leads to the Site Summary screen.
User/Group Features This section addresses additional user and telephone-level tasks, including Directory configuration, that do not fall in the scope of SIPconnect configuration and are presented only for the sake of completion:...
Voicemail to Email The Voicemail to Email feature of the UC320W allows the configuration of an email server and account so that the UC320W can send voicemails that have been converted to emails. The online help system should be consulted by the installer:...
Topology The Topology screen again presents the options for determining where DHCP services are offered in the network and whether UC320W acts as a router for voice traffic only. The vast majority of Cbeyond UC320W customers will choose the first option where “UC320W Routes Voice and Data”.
The WAN configuration task allows the installer to select the upstream bandwidth that will be available from Cbeyond, which are generally increments of T1s. A static IP address can also be assigned to the UC320W, which is recommended, and the UC320W’s DNS domain name can be defined here:...
The LAN task allows the installer to manage the IP address ranges used for voice and data in the customer’s LAN, including the DHCP server assignments. These should be assigned as appropriate for the customer’s environment:...
Wireless UC320W supports a wireless LAN interface that may be enabled for separate data and voice networks. Curious administrators should reference the online help system for details on how wireless services can be configured:...
Port Forwarding In its role as a router, NATing between LAN and WAN interfaces, the UC320W also acts as a perimeter security device with firewalling enabled. The Port Forwarding screen of the UC320W Configuration Utility allows the administrator an opportunity to expose specific application ports to the “outside”...
Site Summary The Site Summary screen allows a summary view of the entire UC320W configuration. Clicking Next takes the installer to the final configuration task:...
Apply Changes Apply Changes gives the installer a last opportunity to go Back to make changes. Otherwise a big Apply All Changes button is presented. Clicking the Apply All Changes button leads to a progress screen and a final status display, as show below.
System Status At this point the Configuration Wizard is complete and the main System Status screen is displayed. The administrator now has unguided access to the UC320W GUI and should begin placing test calls to insure that new system is functioning...
