Question 1

2N IP Intercoms - External IP camera connection (Axis IP camera guide included)

Accepted Answer

The steps in this article require using the web interface of a 2N device. Please follow this manual in case this is your first time using the web interface.   You can add an external IP camera to the 2N IP Intercom to see second video stream e.g. during call. IP camera can be placed for example behind the front door as well as somewhere outside the building. This is very useful because you can check if the calling person is there alone, if he/she already enters the building, if there is some intruder next to him/her, etc. It is possible to specify which picture will be the first one that you see when somebody calls from the intercom – would it be a picture from internal camera or from external camera? Then you can easily switch between them. 2N IP Intercom is processing stream from external camera by itself, so SIP video call will use still the same codecs no matter what camera input is used.   Prerequisities 2N IP Intercom with the latest firmware2N IP AudioKit and 2N IP Uni are not supportedGOLD license is necessaryMore information you can find here: Model Differences and Function Licensing A supported answering unit for switching between internal and external camera during call2N Indoor Compact with the latest firmware2N Indoor Touch 2.0 with the latest firmware2N Indoor View with the latest firmwareMy2N app the latest versionMore information here: My2N platform - registration and setup of cloud calling3rd party video SIP phone IP camera providing RTSP stream Required resolution: 640 x 480 pxRequired coding format: H.264 Baseline or  MJPEGAlready tested IP cameras: 2N® IP Interoperability / IP Cameras Axis IP Camera instructions:Create a new stream profile in the camera with the following settings:H.264 Baseline or MJPEG coding format640 x 480 px resolution15 FPS frame rateBitrate limited to 5Mbps Use the following address to obtain the stream: rtsp://CAMERA-IP/axis-media/media.amp?streamprofile=PROFILE-NAME      Adding external IP camera to 2N IP Intercom Go to 2N IP Intercom web interface, section Hardware - Camera - External Camera.Enable the feature.Fill in RTSP stream address in following format: rtsp://ip_camera_address/parameters (parameters depends on the connected IP camera model).Fill in the username and password if the external IP camera requires authentication.After saving, you should be able to see Camera Preview if you configured everything correctly.       Common issues you can meet:State: Connected > Unsupported resolutionReason: Resolution is higher than 640 x 480 px or not in aspect ratio 4:3       State: Network errorReason: Wrong format of RTSP stream address, e.g. invalid IP address.        State: UnauthorizedReason: Invalid username or password         Select the default video source (from internal or external camera) Still you will be able to switch between them during call.        Switch between internal and external camera during call We will show you how to enable this feature on supported answering units. 2N Indoor Compact or 2N Indoor ViewGo to the device´s web interface - Directory - Devices.Add 2N IP Intercom to the devices list and enable viewing the external camera.Then you will see the camera icon during call.      2N Indoor Touch 2.0 Go to the 2N IP Intercom web interface.

Question 3

Answering Unit Registration and Configuration of Calls in My2N

Accepted Answer

The steps in this article require using the web interface of a 2N device. Please follow this manual in case this is your first time using the web interface. There are two modes of the SIP registration of the 2N Indoor Compact unit in this example, to the My2N portal:    Local  - allows you to use the 2N Indoor Compact in your local network. The reason why you can choose this mode is to make the configuration of the intercom easier so it is not necessary for you to disable the automatic configuration and you can just simply add the 2N Indoor Compact in your local mode and the intercom will be configured automatically. In this mode, the 2N Indoor Compact has to be placed in the same LAN as the intercom.   Cloud  - this mode allows you to make the calls from the 2N Indoor Compact to the 2N Mobile Video application and vice versa. You can use this mode in situations where the unit is placed in a different LAN than the intercom.  2N Indoor Compact My2N Registration:  Security code  Local mode  Automatic configuration  Call settings  Unlock Settings   Cloud mode  DTMF Sending Receiving modes  Unlocking     Security code     Security code is included in the package with the device on the card.    Another way how you can obtain the security code is to go to the device setting section "System" (1) - "Auto Provisioning" (2) - "My2N Security Code" (3) You can quickly copy each credential by clicking on the copy buttons (4) on the right side Note that security code is shown in the firmware version 2.26 and higher In Old Web Interface:  In New Web Interface:  You will have to navigate through "Integration" (1) - "Auto Provisioning" (2) - "My2N" (3) - "General Information" (4) You can also generate a new security code (5)  If you do so, remember to verify the device's security code again in My2N   Local mode  You can add the 2N Indoor Compact by clicking on the "Devices" (1) button and then the "ADD DEVICE" (2) button. Then choose "2N Device" (3) option:     Fill out the "Device serial number" (4), then fill out the "Device Security code" (5)  It is recommended to check the "Remember security code" (6)  Optionally, you can also fill out a custom "Device Name" (7) and select or create new "Apartment" (8) if desired    In the next step you will be asked for selecting the "Configuration mode" (9) and "Connection mode" (10) For Automatic mode select "Automatic", for Local mode select "Local":    Click on "CLOSE" (11) to finish the configuration           Cloud mode  You have two options how to set up your 2N Indoor Compact:  You can use automatic or manual configuration mode   Mode selection is available while adding device (see above) or you can change the mode in device details  You can open device details by clicking on the "Devices" (1) and three dots (2) as shown below:   Automatic configuration First option is an Automatic Configuration mode (3):  This mode is used for comfortable configuration of your answering unit via My2N service    Call settings   You are able to configure switch codes and dial button of the 2N Indoor Compact  Select "Call Settings" (1), fill out the name under "Contact name" (2)  The select the call destination (3), which will be assigned to calling button, from the list of the devices connected in your MY2N account  Save the configuration (4)   Even in Automatic Configuration Mode you can add manually an user from the device's Web Interface:  You can specify the number to which the call should be established and SIP account which will be responsible for the forwarding of the call  The number of the device (Device ID) is shown in My2N portal Settings section  In this example the number is 4962898773 which is the ID of the registered Intercom in the site  You can specify this number in the Directory menu section of the 2N Indoor Compact  SIP account is defined by /2 parameter in the Phone number field  It is necessary to use SIP account number 2 for the proper function  In Old Web Interface:   In New Web Interface:    Unlock Settings  You can also change the unlock code sequence under "Unlock settings" (1)  The code can be changed under "Default unlock code" (2), by default the code is 00*  Save the configuration (3)       Answering modes Last step is to check the answering mode  Go under "Calling", "General Settings", "Incoming Calls"   Check if the "Call Answering Mode (SIP2)" or Local Answering Mode has been set to "Manual Pickup", accordingly with the choice you have made for calling   Make sure to save the configuration       Old Web Interface:  In New Interface:  DTMF Sending Receiving modes If you wish to activate switches over the call, make sure the DTMF  modes are set up correctly:  Go under the "Calling" (1)  Select the SIP account 2, or the Local Calls, accordingly with you initial choice, in this example "SIP 2" (2)  Then click on the "Audio" (3) tab  Locate the DTMF Section, check if the "DTMF Sending/Receiving" (4) is set up correctly (in Old and then in New Web Interface)    Unlocking You can also configure the "Default Unlock Code", which is by default configured in the Hardware - Switches section of the Intercom  Click on "Services" (1)  Select "Unlocking" (2)  Enter the default code under "Default Unlock Code" (3), for example "00"

Question 4

Certification for web authentication

Accepted Answer

Certificates are commonly used to identify server or device to which we are trying to connect. Nowadays digital certificates for web application are used according to the ITU X.509 standard.    The certificate is issued by some trusted issuer or Certification Authority (also shortened to CA) and assigns public key to either domain name or IP address. If certificate is issued for different IP address or domain name, than the destination really has, modern web browser will usually inform us that the web page can be forged.   Certificates are issued on limited time (for security reasons), after this time it is needed to renew validity of the certificate (often a year for server and client applications with reserve of a few days). After the expiration of a certificate web browsers will point out that the certificate is invalid because of authentication fo server will not pass.   Connectivity to our devices web interface is provided by secured HTTPS protocol, which requires valid certificate. We are sure you have already encountered this "invalid security certificate" warning in your web browser...     Prerequisites 2N IP Intercom / 2N Access Unit / 2N Answering unit / 2N SIP Audio based on 2N OS with the latest firmwareno additional license is required    Issuing certificate   Certification authority on the InternetIt is possible to find many CAs on the Internet, most of them offer trusted certificates that are issued on the domain name. Many of these CAs are already assigned to trusted root CAs in your web browser.    Your own certification authorityIt is possible to create your own CA, however it is needed to import certificate of such CA in to the web browser.We will show you example of using OpenSSL certificate toolkit under a linux based system (e.g. Ubuntu).More information you can find also here: https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/opensslhttps://jamielinux.com/docs/openssl-certificate-authority/introduction.html  Open a linux command line (terminal)Create a Certification Authority Start the procedure by this command  admin@ubuntu:~$ openssl req -out ca.crt -new -x509         During command processing you will be prompted for password creation and verification. This password will be used to protect your private key so the key file cannot be used to issue assign unauthorised certificates with your private key. Enter PEM pass phrase:  YourPassword123 Verifying - Enter PEM pass phrase: YourPassword123          Now fill in data about your CA (use your own data, below is just an example)   You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated into your certificate request.What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blankFor some fields there will be a default value,If you enter '.', the field will be left blank. ----- Country Name (2 letter code) [AU]: CZState or Province Name (full name) [Some-State]: PragueLocality Name (eg, city) [ ]: PragueOrganization Name (eg, company) [Internet Widgits Pty Ltd]: 2NOrganizational Unit Name (eg, section) [ ]: TechsupportCommon Name (e.g. server FQDN or YOUR name) [ ]: TestUserEmail Address [ ]:         (we left this blank)              Two files have been created (you can find them in /home) ca.crtcontaining certificate of our CAprivkey.pemcontaining private key of our CA, needed to sign and issue new certificates by this CA                   Create CSR (Certificate Sign Request) with RSA (cryptographic algorithm) Private Key Start the procedure by this command (name IPINTERCOM can be changed) admin@ubuntu:~$ openssl req -newkey rsa:2048 -noenc -keyout IPINTERCOM.key -out IPINTERCOM.csr           This file has been created (you can find it in /home) IPINTERCOM.keyRSA (cryptographic algorithm) Private Key               Now fill in data about the certificate and its owner.(use your own data, below is just an example)Very important item is Common Name which must contain IP address or Domain Name under which the 2N device can be accessed.

Question 7

Configuring HTTP Commands on 2N Indoor Compact

Accepted Answer

The steps in this article require using the web interface of a 2N device. Please follow this manual in case this is your first time using the web interface.   From firmware version 2.34 the 2N Indoor Compact answering unit can send HTTP commands by long-pressing the unlock button on the device. You can set up to 3 different HTTP commands. In case there is only one HTTP command set, the 2N Indoor Compact will send the HTTP command immediately after the long press of the unlock button. But if there are 2 or 3 HTTP commands set they all will be shown on the 2N Indoor Compact's screen and you can choose the desired HTTP command to be sent. Here’s an example of how to set commands for triggering Switch 1 and for holding Switch 2 open on 2N IP Verso. The HTTP command for triggering Switch 1 on the 2N IP Verso is https://IP_address/api/switch/ctrl?switch=1&action=on and for holding the Switch 2 open is https://IP_address/api/switch/ctrl?switch=2&action=hold. You can find the HTTP commands in the HTTP API manual or by accessing the HTTP API TESTool which is part of every 2N IP Intercom and can help you create valid HTTP commands for the desired request type. You can access the TESTool by entering the intercom’s IP address and writing /apitest.html at the end (for example https://192.168.49.88/apitest.html).   After you get the correct HTTP commands go to the “Services -> HTTP Command” section of the 2N Indoor Compact’s web interface and fill in the required credentials. URL - the HTTP command Icon - Choose an icon that will be shown on the 2N Indoor Compact's screen Name - Fill in the name of the HTTP command Username - required username in case of the HTTP API account for authorisation is set in the command receiving device Password - required password in case of the HTTP API account for authorisation is set in the command receiving device      After that simply save the settings and you will be able to send the HTTP command by long-pressing the unlock button on the 2N Indoor compact answering unit.

Question 22

Setting up calls from and to 2N IP intercom

Accepted Answer

The steps in this article require using the web interface of a 2N device. Please follow this manual in case this is your first time using the web interface.   The 2N Indoor View unit is designed for audio and video communication with 2N IP intercoms. You can see all intercoms connected to the LAN, you are able to accept incoming calls, make outgoing calls to 2N IP intercoms and also control locks connected to the intercoms.  Recommendation - use the latest firmware   We recommend to use the latest firmware in 2N Indoor View and also 2N IP intercoms to ensure that all functions are available.    How to configure a 2N IP intercom? As a very first step go to the section Directory – Users, create a new user and set the Phone Number to be dialed once you press the appropriate button on the intercom. If you want to call the 2N Indoor View unit, the number has to be filled in the following format: "device:devicename". In our example the device name “IndoorView” is being used as in the picture below.  In the next step you can set the intercom to automatically pick up incoming calls in order to reach it easily at any time. Go to the section Calling – Gerenal Settings and enable Automatic Pickup for Local Calls, see the picture below.  As a next step go to the section Calling – SIP 1 and fill in the Domain field. For direct calls it is recommended to fill in the IP address of your intercom as shown in the picture below (IP address of the intercom in this example is 192.168.50.10).       A list of available 2N indoor units and their device names can be easily displayed in the 2N IP intercom in the menu Calling  – Local Calls. The list can be viewed by clicking "Show" next to the "Show LAN Device list". See the example below.    Last step is to assign the contact to a quick dial button in the Calling - Dialing section of the configuration.    How to configure 2N Indoor View? Once the 2N Indoor View is connected to the local network, go to its web interface, section Calling – Local Calls. To be able to receive calls from 2N IP intercoms you need to set the Device ID there. The Device ID is used by the intercom for call routing instead of its IP address.  To be able to call from 2N Indoor View to a 2N IP intercom go to 2N Indoor View web interface, section Directory – Devices and add the 2N IP intercom to the device list. Device list is available via 2N Indoor View's onscreen menu.    To be able to activate a 2N IP intercom's switch during a call, open the intercom's tab in Devices, and fill in a valid unlocking DTMF code.

Question 23

SIP Proxy registration on Answering Units with 2N OS

Accepted Answer

The steps in this article require using the web interface of a 2N device. Please follow this manual in case this is your first time using the web interface. Prerequisites:- 2N Indoor View- 2N Indoor Compact- 2N Indoor Talk- 2N Clip  Explanation of IP Telephony Terms   SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) – is a phone call signalling transmission protocol used in IP telephony. It is primarily used for setting up, terminating and forwarding calls between two SIP devices (the intercom and another IP phone in this case). SIP devices can establish connections directly with each other (Direct SIP Call) or, typically, via one or more servers: SIP Proxy and SIP Registrar.  SIP Proxy – is an IP network server responsible for call routing (call transfer to another entity closer to the destination). There can be one or more SIP Proxy units between the users.  SIP Registrar – is an IP network server responsible for user registration in a certain network section. As a rule, SIP device registration is necessary for a user to be accessible to the others on a certain phone number. SIP Registrar and SIP Proxy are often installed on one and the same server.  RTP (Real-Time Transport Protocol) – is a protocol defining the standard packet format for audio and video transmission in IP networks. 2N Indoor Compact uses the RTP for audio and video stream transmission during a call. The stream parameters (port numbers, protocols and codecs) are defined and negotiated via the SDP (Session Description Protocol).  The example below: the 2N  Indoor Compact  is registered to the SIP Proxy (2N Netstar SW) 192.168.50.252, The phone number ID is 200, SIP Proxy and SIP proxy registrar Server is also 192.168.50.252 and there is used a default port 5060. The Authentication ID and password is in case also required from the Pbx.       It is possible to check the current registration status in the Section State-Services - Registration state-REGISTERED.
