MediaPack SIP User’s Manual  5. Configuring the MediaPack 
Version 4.6  53  June 2005 
Table  5-1: Protocol Definition, General Parameters (continues on pages 52 to 55) 
Parameter  Description 
Asserted Identity Mode 
[AssertedIdMode] 
Disable [0] = None (default). 
Adding PAsserted Identity [1]. 
Adding PPreferred Identity [2]. 
 
The Asserted ID mode defines the header that is used in the generated INVITE request. 
The header also depends on the calling Privacy: allowed or restricted. 
The P-asserted (or P-preferred) headers are used to present the originating party’s 
Caller ID. The Caller ID is composed of a Calling Number and (optionally) a Calling 
Name. 
P-asserted (or P-preferred) headers are used together with the Privacy header. If Caller 
ID is restricted the ‘Privacy: id’ is included. Otherwise for allowed Caller ID the ‘Privacy: 
none’ is used. If Caller ID is restricted (received from Tel or configured in the gateway), 
the From header is set to <anonymous@anonymous.invalid>. 
Fax Signaling Method 
[IsFaxUsed] 
Determines the SIP signaling method used to establish and convey a fax session after a 
fax is detected. 
No Fax      [0]  = No fax negotiation using SIP signaling (default). 
T.38 Relay    [1]  = Initiates T.38 fax relay. 
G.711 Transport  [2]  = Initiates fax using the coder G.711 A-law/µ-law with 
adaptations (refer to note 1). 
Fax Fallback    [3]  = Initiates T.38 fax relay. If the T.38 negotiation fails, the 
gateway re-initiates a fax session using the coder G.711 A-law/µ-law with adaptations 
(see note 1). 
Note 1: Fax adaptations: 
Echo Canceller = On 
Silence Compression = Off 
Echo Canceller Non-Linear Processor Mode = Off 
Dynamic Jitter Buffer Minimum Delay = 40 
Dynamic Jitter Buffer Optimization Factor = 13 
Note 2: If the gateway initiates a fax session using G.711 (option 2 and possibly 3), a 
‘gpmd’ attribute is added to the SDP in the following format: 
For A-law: ‘a=gpmd:0 vbd=yes;ecan=on’. For µ-law: ‘a=gpmd:8 vbd=yes;ecan=on’. 
Note 3: When ‘IsFaxUsed’ is set to 1, 2 or 3 the parameter ‘FaxTransportMode’ is 
ignored. 
Detect Fax on Answer Tone 
[DetFaxOnAnswerTone] 
Initiate T.38 on Preamble [0] = Terminating fax gateway initiates T.38 session on 
receiving of HDLC preamble signal from fax (default) 
Initiate T.38 on CED   [1] = Terminating fax gateway initiates T.38 session on 
receiving of CED answer tone from fax. 
Note: This parameters is applicable only if ‘IsFaxUsed = 1’. 
SIP Transport Type 
[SIPTransportType] 
Determines the default transport layer used for outgoing SIP calls initiated by the 
gateway. 
UDP [0] (default). 
TCP [1]. 
TLS [2] (SIPS) (MP-11x only). 
Note: It is recommended to use TLS to communicate with a SIP Proxy and not for direct 
gateway-gateway communication. 
SIP UDP Local Port 
[LocalSIPPort] 
Local UDP port used to receive SIP messages. 
The default value is 5060. 
SIP TCP Local Port 
[TCPLocalSIPPort] 
Local TCP port used to receive SIP messages (MP-11x only). 
The default value is 5060. 
SIP TLS Local Port 
[TLSLocalSIPPort] 
Local TLS port used to receive SIP messages. 
The default value is 5061. 
Note: The value of ‘TLSLocalSIPPort’ must be different to the value of 
‘TCPLocalSIPPort’.
