SmartNode 4630 overview
Quality of Service with high-quality Voice over IP (VoIP) delivered on five ISDN S0 (S/T) Basic Rate Interface
(BRI). This combination allows you to leverage low-cost Internet Telephony on existing ISDN Phones and
PBX equipment for complete SoHo and branch office voice and data connectivity.
Figure 1. SmartNode 4630
The SmartNode 4630 series consists of two models: the SN4634 and SN4638. Both models come equipped
with two 10/100Base-T Ethernet ports.
The SmartNode 4638 Gateway-Router performs the following major functions:
• Eight channels of Voice over IP and local voice switching via 5 ISDN BRI S0 ports. Each port can be
switched between NT and TE per software. One port can be used a clock source.
• For each ISDN S0 port in NT mode a Phantom power supply can be switched on. The total delivered
power is 4W.
• A fallback cut-through relay between ISDN BRI ports 0/0 and 0/1 electrically connects the NT and TE
port in case of power failure and enables life-line calls to the public ISDN network (PSTN-supplied
ISDN line must be used).
• Standard compliant VoIP in accordance with SIP or H.323 protocols.
• Internet access and IP Routing with IP Quality of Service (QoS) support for mixed voice and data traffic.
The SN4634 is the same as the SN4638 except that it supports 3 ISDN BRI S0 ports and 4 VoIP channels.

Introduction
Patton’s SmartNode VoIP Media Gateway Routers deliver the features you need for advanced multiservice
voice and data network applications. They combine high quality voice-over-IP with powerful quality of service
routing functions to build professional and reliable VoIP and data networks. This chapter describes typical
applications for which this SmartNode is uniquely suited.
Note Detailed configuration information for the applications can be found on the
CD-ROM that was included with your SmartNode device or online from
Application—Edge intelligence of enterprise communication
Enterprises are excited about voice over IP and convergence for the following reasons:
• Bypassing the PSTN. Using Internet telephony service providers (ITSPs) instead of incumbent carriers dra-
matically reduces telephony costs
• IP PBXs, with their full suite of features and ease of integration into existing IT environments are
very appealing
• Convergence lowers technology ownership costs and enables enterprises to deploy new
integrated applications
However, there are several concerns about migrating the whole telephony infrastructure to VoIP:
• Loss of voice quality
• Unknown reliability
• Lack of experience/expertise in voice over IP
Patton’s SmartNode series of VoIP gateways address these concerns enabling enterprises to safely migrate to
VoIP. SmartNodes enable system administrators to gradually introduce VoIP, using it as the edge communica-
tion device for all worlds, connecting PSTN, legacy PBX, ITSPs and an IP PBX.

How it works:
1. Connect the SmartNode to the PSTN and legacy PBX, and configure the call router to pass all calls from
the PBX to the PSTN and vice versa. This first step will not affect any uses in the enterprise
2. Choose your ITSPs, and configure as many on the SmartNode as you need. Use the intelligent call router
in the SmartNode to decide which call is forwarded to which ITSP, and which calls should go to the
PSTN. This may be based upon least-cost routing criteria, or for example, on calling party number. The
latter is ideal if you want to test calls to an ITSP before enabling it for all users within the enterprise.
3. Voice over IP can be switched off instantly on one single box (the SmartNode) to revert the system back to
as it was before.
4. Build up an IP PBX system that uses the SmartNode as PSTN gateway. For all calls from this IP PBX, you
can direct them to the PSTN or to ITSPs. Numbering plan adaptations are handled through regular
expression matching by the SmartNode. No need to change anything on the PBXs.
5. Once the IP PBX is ready, you can choose on incoming calls from the PSTN, for each extension whether
this extension is to be directed to the IP PBX or on the legacy PBX.

Introduction
This chapter leads you through the basic steps to set up a new SmartNode and to download a configuration.
Setting up a new SmartNode consists of the following main steps:
• Connecting the SmartNode to your laptop PC
• Configuring the desired IP address
• Connecting the SmartNode to the network
• Loading the configuration (optional)
Note The SmartNode CD-ROM contains a collection of third party software
tools (including TFTP servers and Telnet utilities) to help you configure,
operate and monitor the SmartNode device.
1. Connecting the SmartNode to your laptop PC
First the SmartNode must be connected to the mains power supply with the power cable. Wait until the Power
LED stops blinking and stays lit constantly. Now the SmartNode is ready.
The interconnecting cables shall be acceptable for external use
and shall be rated for the proper application with respect to volt-
age, current, anticipated temperature, flammability, and
CAUTION mechanical serviceability.
When this device is used in North America, it shall be connected
to a Network Termination Device and not connected directly to
an outside POTS line.

SmartNode will provide the PC with an IP address. You can check the connection to the SmartNode by exe-
cuting the ping command from the PC command window as follows:
ping 192.168.1.1
2. Configuring the desired IP address
Factory-default IP settings
The factory default configuration for the Ethernet interface IP addresses and network masks are listed in table 5.
Both Ethernet interfaces are activated upon power-up. LAN interface ETH 0/1 (LAN) provides a default
DHCP server, the WAN interface uses DHCP client to automatically assign the IP address and network mask.
Table 5. Factory default IP address and network mask configuration

If these addresses match with those of your network, go to section “3. Connecting the SmartNode to the net-
work” on page 31. Otherwise, refer to the following sections to change the addresses and network masks.
Login
To access the SmartNode, start the Telnet application. Type the default IP address for the router into the
address field: 192.168.1.1. Accessing your SmartNode via a Telnet session displays the login screen. Type the
factory default login: administrator and leave the password empty. Press the Enter key after the password
prompt.

4 • Initial configuration
Now you can set your IP address and network mask for the interface ETH 0/0 (WAN). Within this example a
network 172.16.1.0/24 address is assumed. The IP address in this example is set to 172.16.1.99 (you should
set this the IP address given to you by your network provider).
192.168.1.1(ctx-ip)[router]#interface eth0
192.168.1.1(if-ip)[eth0]#ipaddress 172.16.1.99 255.255.255.0

: Link down on interface eth0.
: Link up on interface eth0.
Copy this modified configuration to your new start-up configuration. This will store your changes in non-vol-
atile memory. Upon the next start-up the system will initialize itself using the modified configuration.
172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#copy running-config startup-config
172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#
The SmartNode can now be connected to your network.
3. Connecting the SmartNode to the network
In general, the SmartNode will connect to the network via the WAN (ETH 0/0) port. This enables the Smart-
Node to offer routing services to the PC hosts on LAN (ETH 0/1) port. The SmartNode 4630 Series is
equipped with Auto-MDX Ethernet ports, so you can use straight-through or crossover cables for host or hub/

4 • Initial configuration
You can check the connection with the ping command from the SmartNode to another host on the network.
172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#ping <IP Address of the host>
Note If the WAN address is not set to DHCP, to ping a device outside your local
LAN you must first configure the default gateway. (For information on con-
figuring the default gateway, refer to section “Set IP addresses” in Appendix
C, “Command Summary” of the SmartNode Series SmartWare Software Con-
figuration Guide.)
4. Loading the configuration (optional)
Patton provides a collection of configuration templates on the CD-ROM that came with the SmartNode
device—and also on the support page at www.patton.com/voip—one of which may be similar enough to your
application that you can use it to speed up configuring the SmartNode. Simply download the configuration
note that matches your application to your PC. Adapt the configuration as described in the configuration note
to your network (remember to modify the IP address) and copy the modified configuration to a TFTP server.
The SmartNode can now load its configuration from this server.
Note Patton regularly adds new configuration templates to the collection at
ROM, it may have been added to the website.
Note If your application is unique and not covered by any of Patton’s configura-
tion templates, you can manually configure the SmartNode instead of load-
ing a configuration file template. In that case, refer to the SmartNode Series
SmartWare Software Configuration Guide for information on configuring the
SmartNode device.
In this example we assume the TFTP server on the host with the IP address 172.16.1.11 and the configuration
named SN.cfg in the root directory of the TFTP server.
172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#copy tftp://172.16.1.11/SN.cfg startup-config
Download...100%
172.16.1.99(if-ip)[eth0]#
After the SmartNode has been rebooted the new startup configuration will be activated.
When you issue the reload command, the SmartNode will ask
if you want to copy the running configuration to the startup con-
figuration. Since you just downloaded a configuration file to the
startup configuration you must answer this question with NO.
Otherwise, the downloaded configuration will be overwritten
and lost!

Radio and TV Interference
The SmartNode router generates and uses radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used properly-that
is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions-may cause interference to radio and television
reception. The SmartNode router have been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A comput-
ing device in accordance with specifications in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to pro-
vide reasonable protection from such interference in a commercial installation. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If the SmartNode router does cause interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by disconnecting the unit, the user is encouraged to try
to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: moving the computing equipment away
from the receiver, re-orienting the receiving antenna and/or plugging the receiving equipment into a different
AC outlet (such that the computing equipment and receiver are on different branches).
CE Declaration of Conformity
This equipment conforms to the requirements of Council Directive 1999/5/EC on the approximation of the
laws of the member states relating to Radio and Telecommunication Terminal Equipment and the mutual rec-
ognition of their conformity.

.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.patton.products.sn46xx.2
1.3.6.1.4.1.1768.2.4.9.2
According to table 6, an SNMP get request to .iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.system.sysObjectID of a Smart-
Node 4634 device reads out a numeric OID of 1.3.6.1.4.1.1768.2.4.9.1, which represents a SmartNode
4634 device. The mapping of the sysObjectID to each of the SmartNode model is realized with the Smart-
Node product identification MIB.
The SNMP agent running in SmartWare is SNMP version 1
(SNMPv1) compliant. SNMP version 2 (SNMPv2) and SNMP
version 3 (SNMPv3) are not currently supported.

• When the unit is not powered, the fallback relay connects pins 3, 4, 5, and 6 of the net
and the user ports (fallback) together. This enables you to place calls to the PSTN even if
the unit is powered down.
• Line power applied to the Line port is fed through to the Phone port at all times and
independent of the fallback relay’s status.
Note On each ISDN BRI port in TE mode, it is possible to switch on ISDN line
power per software. The total amount of power is 4W. If a ISDN BRI port is
