Question 1

2N 2Wire - Installation and Configuration

Accepted Answer

2N 2Wire is a set of two convertor units that lets you connect any IP device installed at locations with no IP infrastructure to your network. Connect the device, such as an IP intercom, to one unit and a switch to the other unit. Then connect both convertor units to each other using the existing analogue wiring. This will transmit audio and video as well as supply power.   Prerequisites  2N 2Wire(2 pieces of 2N 2Wire converter units and 1 power supply adapter)  Specifications: Speed: 10/100 Base T, half/full duplex, auto-negotiationIEEE 802.3 af/at 40Watt Compliant PoE+Cable Type: 2Wire, Cat 5e., Cat 6. or similarImpedance: 25Ω to 100ΩTransmit Coverage: Typical 720ft (220m) @ Cat6 with PoE at far end; up to 2460ft (750m) possible; depends on wiring and interference      Product features  Using legacy analog 2 wire cabling for IP intercom connection including PoE power supply  Easy configuration, no IP address and network setup required, plug&play  Powering the IP-connected devices via PoE is possible up to a distance of 220m, twice the maximum Ethernet specification cable length.  You can connect up to 2 pairs of 2N 2Wire convertor units to a single switch. This means you can connect an intercom to several indoor stations as well as an IP camera.The pairing procedure must be proceeded first.    Basic installation      Install 2N 2Wire leader unit where your Ethernet cable ends and 2 wire cabling begins, plug in them.Do not connect 2N 2Wire units to PoE ports. If you don't have any non-PoE ports available, make sure to disable PoE on the port you're going to connect 2N 2Wire to.    Install 2N 2Wire follower unit where you need to convert 2 wire cable back to Ethernet at a remote location. Please observe polarity of the 2 wires. Connect the provided power supply to the leader unit.  Either of the units can be leader or follower.Leader unit is the one with connected power supply while follower is powered via 2 wires.  Blue Power LED indicators should indicate that both units are powered.      Use case scenarios  Single leader & Single follower      This is the simplest configuration and works straight out of the box.Just make sure you connect the 2 wires correctly to each adapter. Positive to positive & negative to negative.      Single leader & multiple followers This works straight out of the box as well.Multiple followers can be wired into a single leader, max. 3 followers can be connected to a leader.Again make sure to connect the 2 wire correctly to each adapter. Positive to positive & negative to negative.      Multiple leaders & Multiple followers If this configuration is required and you are installing multiple leader adapters on to a single network, it is very important to perform the pairing procedure (described below the pictures),otherwise you may experience network conflict issues.        The pairing procedure All units are in join mode. They will find each other and establish basic level encrypted communication.To use more leaders in the same network, we must return the units to an un-joined mode and then join them again.In case of adding another unit (e.g. as a replacement), you must repeat all the procedure again.Un-joining mode  Connect the power supply to the leader and connect the follower via the 2 wire connection.Do not connect them to the network or the IP device yet.Press and hold the ‘Grp’ button for 10 seconds, until you see all lights on the adapter go off.Then you should see only the power light illuminated.   Joining modeIn a single leader & single follower joining scenario, it doesn't matter which unit you put into this mode first.If you have multiple followers connected to a single leader, then you must connect all followers via the 2Wire connection to the leader first, then run individual joining procedures for each connected follower. To do this you must initiate the joining mode on the leader first and then the first follower. Then repeat this for each follower connected to the leader.         Connect the power supply to the leader and connect the follower via the 2 wire connection.Do not connect them to the network or the IP device yet.Press and hold the ‘Grp’ button for 2 seconds.After release, the ‘PoE’ light will begin steadily blinkingletting you know that the adapter is in ‘seek’ mode and is looking for another adapter to pair to.Once an adapter has found another adapter to pair to the ‘TWP LED’ will become static, letting you know pairing is complete.

Question 3

2N IP audio unit can not connect to the 2N&#174; IP Audio Manager - what could be the reason?

Accepted Answer

There could be several reasons, why 2N IP audio device: 2N® Net Audio Decoder / 2N® Net Audio Decoder Lite / 2N® Net Mic / 2N® Net Audio Encoder is not connected to the 2N® IP Audio Manager : 1. In factory default IP audio device obtain IP address automatically (DHCP client is ON).    CAUTION even if other devices in the network obtain IP address automatically, 2N IP audio unit does not have to due to the restrictions set by the IT department in the network. This setting automatically assigns IP addresses only to known/registered devices in the network based on their MAC addresses!  In case device did not obtain IP address automatically, go to menu Administrator > Net Audio device scanner . Displayed IP address in field DHCP would be: 0.0.0.0 (see picture below).For more details contact your IT department. In this case it could be MAC address restriction in the network. Provide MAC address of the device to your IT department and they will register it and allow automatic assignment of the IP addresses.Second option is to turn the DHCP client OFF and setup IP address manually. In this case it is necessary to know some free IP address which can be used for 2N® Net Audio Decoder unit in the network. It means that this IP address (the one you would like to use) is not assigned to any other IP device in the network (you can use ping command to check it). Do not forget to set up the IP mask = subnet of the network.Manual settings could look like this: IP address: 192.168.1.151 IP mask: 255.255.255.0   2. Firewall can also block connection of the unit to the 2N® IP Audio Manager   Do you have firewall switched ON? It can cause that if 2N® Net Audio Decoder unit disconnects from the server and then tries to connect again via the same port, firewall (eg, ESET Smart Security) will not let it go through. This is not the common issue but it could be one of the reason why you cannot see 2N® Net Audio Decoder units in menu Destinations & Zones.   Picture below shows the situation when the network automatically assigns IP addresses (there is DHCP server in the network) but the device (e.g. 2N® Net Audio Decoder unit is not recognized = IT department does not know its MAC address). In this case IP address for 2N® Net Audio Decoder unit would not be automatically assigned .  Picture below shows an example of manually assigned IP address and IP mask,when the DHCP client has been switched OFF:     3. Password for authorization is used: IP audio device authentication to the Server / Server authentication to the IP audio device.   IP audio device is not connected to the 2N® IP Audio Manager even all parameters as: IP address, domain, connection mode are set-up correctly? Most probably you have previously used password for device/server authorization.        To be sure, there is authentication password used. You would need to connect via Telnet to already connected unit to the 2N® IP Audio Manager. For security reason it is needed to "Enable telnet" connection in menu Destinations & Zones. Click on the unit which is already connected and in its parameters check option "Enable telnet".        More details about password authorization can be found in manual for Control Panel / Administration: Administrator#ServerAuthorisation

Question 4

2N IP Eye issue - How to enable 2N IP Eye in Windows firewall?

Accepted Answer

If you have installed 2N IP Eye software in your computer and you can not see a popup window (with video from 2N IP Intercoms) at the time of an incoming call, the problem most likely resides in the firewall settings of your computer. In your Windows installation, go to section "Control Panel -> Windows Firewall" and click on "Advanced settings" as shown in the picture below.  On the left side of this window choose "Inbound Rules" and in the list of programs find 2N IP Eye. If there is a red icon, 2N IP Eye application is blocked by firewall and you have to change it manually.  So make a double click on this "Rule" and in "General" tab set the parameter Action to "Allow the connection". Then confirm those changes by "OK" button.  Do this change for both 2N® IP Eye rules. Then you should see that the icon changed according to the picture below.   As a last step do not forget to restart your computer! Otherwise the changes may not apply.  Now the Windows firewall is set properly and 2N IP Eye window should popup without any problems.

Question 8

2N IP Intercoms - IP Address retrieval

Accepted Answer

2N IP Intercoms - IP Address retrieval You have to know your intercom IP address to log in to the integrated web server. Upon purchase or factory reset, the device is set to the dynamic IP address mode – it retrieves the IP address automatically if there is a properly configured DHCP server in the LAN.

Question 13

Automation, Call Delay - how to set a different ring time for diferent call destinations

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 ring time limit can be set in the "Calling -> General Settings -> Outgoing calls -> Ring Time Limit" section of the web interface of the 2N IP intercom. It is set for 32 seconds by default so for example, when the Quick Dial Button 1 is pressed the intercom will dial the 1st number of the assigned user. In case the call is not picked up within 32 seconds, the intercom will start dialing the second number for 32 seconds and so on until the last number is called. You can create automation where you can set different ring time limits for different destinations.   Scenario: There is an intercom at the main entrance of an office building, 1 answering unit at the reception and 2 smartphones with a 2N Mobile Video app that belongs to receptionists. When the Quick Dial Button is pressed we want the intercom to call the answering unit and dial for 30 seconds. If the call is not answered during those 30 seconds, we want the intercom to call 1st receptionist's smartphone and dial for 50 seconds. In case the receptionist does not pick up as well, the intercom will call 2nd receptionist and dial for 30 seconds.    For the scenario and the automation to properly work, the button setting must be empty:        This automation will start calling the first number, after 30 seconds it ends the call, waits for 3 seconds and starts dialling the second number. After 50 seconds the automation ends the call, waits for another 3 seconds and then starts dialling the third number for 30 seconds. After that, the dialling ends. Also, when the call is connected, the automation will stop all delays, which prevents dialling the next numbers.

Question 14

Automation, Multicast - How to receive multicast paging from up to 5 sources

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.   Each 2N IP Intercom can receive and send one multicast stream without any license. However, if you need your intercom to listen to multiple sources – maybe up to five at once (or send multicast to different addresses), then you will need an Enhanced Integration (up to v2.35) or Gold license (v2.35 onwards), which will allow you to set up the functionality via Automation. Such scenario may be useful, for example, in an area with several multistorey buildings with several departments, where:  the intercoms in the 1st building will listen to multicast at the address 224.1.0.0 and port 11000,   the intercoms in the 2nd building will listen to multicast at the same address (or different – e.g. 224.2.0.0) and port 12000, etc.,   the intercoms on the 1st floor of the 1st building will listen, as well, to the multicast again at the same address (or different – e.g. 224.1.1.0) and port 11100,   the intercoms on the 2nd floor of the 1st building will listen, as well, to the multicast again at the same address (or different – e.g. 224.1.2.0) and port 11200, etc.   the intercoms in the 1st department on the 1st floor of the 1st building will also listen to multicast, e.g. at address 224.1.1.1 and port 11110,   the intercoms in the 2nd department on the 1st floor of the 1st building will also listen to multicast, e.g. at address 224.1.1.2 and port 11120, etc.   and at the same time the intercoms in all buildings, floors and departments will listen to multicast, e.g. at address 224.0.0.0 and port 10000.  In other words, in such scenario, each 2N IP Intercom listens on 4 different multicast addresses and ports at once. There must be no odd port numbers used (e.g. 10001, 10003, 10011 etc.)  How to set up the 2N IP Intercom to receive multicast paging from up to 5 sources?  Navigate to "Services->Streaming->Multicast->Multicast Audio Receiving" (see image below)  We will adjust the following parameters (eg. the multicast source that will be listened to by intercoms in all buildings together), thus enabling reception from one common source:Multicast Receiver Enabled:  ✔  Receive IP Address: 224.0.0.0Receive Port: 10000Codec: the corresponding codec (which was selected for the respective multicast paging as well)   Navigate to "Services -> Automation" section -> select a free function -> create and save the given automation (see the picture below).Connect the required number of "StartMulticastRecv" blocks according to how many multicast addresses and ports, respectively, you want to be able to receive multicast streams from at once.We can set up reception from up to 4 other sources as we have channels 0 - 3 available here, each of which can be used only once.The example below shows what the automation in the intercom would look like on the 1st department of the 3rd floor in the 2nd building (according to the scenario described in the introduction).Then reboot the intercom "System -> Maintenance" - Restart, because in this case we have the "Rebooted" event set. Firmware & License info  2N OS v2.43.1 with GOLD license  Last updated on 25th of June 2024

Question 15

Automation, Multicast paging - How to configure paging from 2N IP Intercoms

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.   Paging from 2N IP Intercom is a feature that can be used for emergency calls or just for any announcement that will be sent to all other intercoms (or to specific group of intercoms). These devices have to receive multicast stream on predefined multicast IP address and port. Then you just press a button on 2N IP Intercom and you can start talking to other intercoms, play announcements or play any emergency tones (e.g. for evacuation of the building).    How to set up 2N IP Intercom which will send multicast  The settings above mean that if any user presses the quick dial button 5 on the 2N IP Intercom, then the user sound is sent as a multicast request to all other devices. This sound takes 2 seconds. After that period of time you can start talking and 2N IP Intercom will stream this multicast traffic to all devices that are listening on the specific IP address and port (in our example: IP address is 239.0.0.239 and port is 21212). If you want to stop multicast traffic, you just press the quick dial button 5 again but for such behaviour you have to the use two conditions as shown in the figure above.  How to set up receiving on 2N IP IntercomsIf you want to receive a multicast traffic on your 2N IP Intercoms, you have to set specific multicast IP address and port. In our example IP address 239.0.0.239 and port 21212 are used. This setting is shown in the figure below.   As the next step go to the "Services->Automation" section and configure that the 2N IP Intercom will play user sound once it receives a specific multicast request. In our example user sound #2 recorded in the intercom is played.

Question 19

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.

Question 20

Configuration of electrical outputs on 2N IP Intercoms

Accepted Answer

What are electrical outputs good for Electrical outputs are connectors on electronics of 2N IP Intercoms where you can connect door lock, alarm system, home automation system, signalling light etc. Basically anything that can be controlled by electrical signal. What electrical outputs are available Generally there are two types: Active output - two connectors, either gives no voltage, or it provides voltage. The voltage is from 8 to 14V DC, and can provide up to 700mA current, depending on which intercom. Details about electrical outputs are always mentioned in technical parameters in Installation manual, which is available for each intercom separately. They are also listed below.Relay (passive) output - three connectors, NO normally open, C common, NC normally closed. Two of these three should be used. Always connect the C, and either NO (circuit is disconnected by default) or NC (circuit is connected by default). Make sure that the electric opener/lock is always connected to the intercom's 12V output using a security relay to make the installation safe. The motherboard relay is used for switching lights or other peripherals that do not have to be secured.  It is always recommended that the 2N Security Relay (Part No. 9159010) is used for increased security. What are the switches in the configuration of 2N IP Intercom In terminology of the 2N IP Intercoms, we use Switch as a subject in settings which representents a set of parameters. Switch says what is the PIN code, time profile, which electrical output and some other parameters. You always have four switches, no matter how many actual electrical outputs are on that particular intercom. This makes possible to have multiple switches linked to one electrical outputs. You can thus set two different sets of settings for our output. Examples on using two switches with one electrical output, for example intercom with keypad controlling shop front door: PIN code 1234* opens the door for 5 seconds, so an employee can walk in. Manager of the day has a different code 4321* which triggers the door to be open, until they are closed again with code 4322*. That means, employee can get into the building, but only manager can open the shop in the morning and close it in the evening.The employees code 1234* from above can be limited by a time profile to work one hour before opening hours and one hour after shop hours. Manager would use a different code for opening of the door for himself, which would work 24/7. What if I need more settings For more complicated scenarios, control of more outputs etc, we recommend using the Automation scripts.

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.   Note: The IP addresses used will always vary depending on your network. In the example below, the IP address 192.168.3.165 for the 2N IP Intercom and the IP address 192.168.3.166 for the Grandstream GXV3140 are used.  How to set up a 2N IP IntercomHow to set up a Grandstream GXV3140 IP Phone How to set up a 2N IP Intercom Setting up the 2N IP Intercom is very easy. First, it is necessary to create a new user in the blue section directory and assign him a phone number - in our case it will be a direct call (peer to peer) to the GXV3140 phone. For this reason, we enter a phone number in the form sip:IP_address (or sip:x@IP_address), where IP_address is the IP address of the GXV3140  phone. The setting corresponds to the picture below.  In the next step, go to the "Calling -> SIP 1" section, enable the SIP 1 account and fill in the "Domain" field with the IP address of the 2N IP Intercom.  We can adjust the video codec settings and video resolution. These settings can be made in the section "Calling -> SIP 1-> Video" section, where you can set the maximum resolution for the given intercom model (VGA in this case for the 2N IP Verso intercom), change the frame rate and also the video bitrate. We also enable "Use sendrecv Attribute for Video" in the advanced SPD settings option.   Finally, we need to assign the user to the quick dial button of the 2N IP Intercom in the section "Calling -> Dialing-> Quick Dial Button".   How to set up a Grandstream GXV3140 IP Phone Be sure to leave the Use Random Port field blank in this setting.  In the next picture you can find the SIP settings for Grandstream. Set the Local SIP Port to 5060.  In General Settings, you need to specify the IP address of the SIP server. This is the IP address of the 2N IP Intercom.

The following describes how to set up the phone via the web interface. In the first step it is necessary to enable and set up the first user account "Account 1". As it was said at the beginning of this article, we will set up the connection between the intercom and the IP phone directly, so we will fill in the "SIP Server" field with the IP address of the 2N IP Intercom to which the IP phone will register. It is not necessary to fill in the authorization name and password in this case.  Next, go to "Call Settings" and make sure that the correct numbering plan is used for the first account. If you see a different numbering plan, then overwrite it according to the image below, or you can copy it from the settings for account 2 or account 3.  Next, go to the "Advanced setting - General settings" section of your phone's advanced settings and make sure the "Use Random Port" box is not checked. If this box is checked, then uncheck it.  In the last step, set "Preview" (i.e. preview the video from the intercom before picking up the call) in the "Maintenance" section. Preview is one of the options that can be selected for incoming call settings (see image below). Once you have set this up and saved it, don't forget to confirm the configuration by pressing the "Apply" button in the top right corner of the screen.  Finally, check that the IP phone is indeed registered to the 2N IP Intercom and test the direct call from the doorphone to the intercom and back.

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.   In case you have found some issue with 2N OS device, please report it to Technical Support. If you do not have access information, contact your account manager.Or you can report your issue by creating a ticket - here. The reported issue should contain the following information:  Describe us the issue in a close detail, so that we will be able to replicate the behavior at 2N Tech Support.   Send us the description of the LAN topology, NATs, IP addresses, etc.    If your issue can be clearly visible or heard e.g. LED blinking or bad sound quality, please take a picture or record a video (e.g. on a phone) and send us this behavior.   You can attach it to the e-mail or upload it to e.g. WeTransfer, Dropbox, Google Drive and send us the download link.    Know the Device Information The serial number and the current FW version of your 2N OS device.It is highly recommended to use always the newest FW version available on 2N web page - here  Backup the Configuration Send us the current configuration of the device - in the pictures below there is shown how to do that.   Capture the Wireshark trace Catch the Wireshark trace on 2N OS device. Here first of all activate the capturing by "Start" button, make a call and deactivate the capturing by "Stop" button. Then download hiptrace.pcap file and send it to the support. Because the buffer for trace is limited, it is really necessary to start the trace right before you will make a test call.    Capture an internal Syslog on 2N OS device.   If 2N Tech support asks you for a Syslog they usually want the setting that is shown in the picture below. Unlike in Wireshark trace the buffer is not limited by size but time. Please set the Required Saving Time + Severity level according to 2N Tech support needs.   After setting press the "Start" button and the Syslog will automatically stop after the time you defined in  Required Saving Time, then save the syslog.txt file and send it to us.  6. Capture an external Syslog on 2N OS device.     The external syslog is often use to capture syslog messages immediately after rebooting the device which often can't be done by internal Syslog.    Please fill the Severity Level according to 2N Tech support needs. You will need a syslog server where the messages from the device will be sent.    Set the Server Address in our example we use 192.168.1.15 - IP Address of a PC where SyslogWatcher is installed   7. Using SyslogWatcher - download here       Start the server - it will take a few seconds until you see any messages  Stop server - press after you are done with capturingExport - press this button to export messages to fileExport Settings - Choose the time from/to according to what 2N Tech support demands (1h, 24h)Custom files (CSV/XML/TXT/JSON/etc.) - type of file  Export folder - choose path to save the fileFilename - name of the file (in default it is date of Syslog capturing) -> export the file with .txt suffix and send it to us

Question 33

How to send/receive separate multicast streams on 2N IP Intercoms via Automation

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.   Every 2N IP Intercom can receive/send one multicast stream by default with the basic license. If you wish to receive/send more multicast streams (up to 5 different multicast IP addresses or ports) then you need Enhanced integration license (up to v2.35) or Gold license (v2.35 onwards) which enables you to configure this feature via Automation. It is very useful if you have for example a building with 2 separated floors – 2N IP Intercoms on the 1st floor are listening on multicast IP address 224.10.10.1 and port 10 000 (represented by 2N IP Video Kit in the example below), then 2N IP Intercoms on the 2nd floor are listening on 224.10.10.2 and port 10 000 (represented by 2N IP Safety). Once you press the button on any of these intercoms on the 1st floor you will make an announcement to all other intercoms on the 1st floor. The same will happen once you press the button on any of the intercoms on the 2nd floor – you will multicast to all intercoms on the 2nd floor. Once you finish your announcement you press the button again and the multicast stream will finish — but let's imagine that you also need a few intercoms that are able to make an announcement to the 1st floor as well as the 2nd floor and also receive announcements from both these floors. In this case you will need an intercom with two buttons at least (or with a keypad).  How to configure intercoms (2N IP Verso) on the 1st floor? As mentioned previously all intercoms should be able to send multicast traffic once the quick dial button is pressed and also receive multicast if any other intercom is transmitting. Therefore we will set two functions in the section "Services -> Automation" for each intercom. Send multicast: Once you press a specific quick dial button on any of intercoms from the 1st floor (it will be 2N IP Video Kit in our example) then you engage conversation with all intercoms on this floor. Complete configuration of “Function 1” is shown in the picture below – when the first quick dial button is pressed for the first time, condition on the 2nd row is met and it will trigger actions on the 4th and 5th rows, i.e. 2N IP Video Kit sends specific multicast request (command=group01) to all other intercoms and starts sending multicast traffic. Based on the request these intercoms open a multicast channel and are able to receive multicast traffic (on IP address 224.10.10.1 and port 10 000). Once you finish your announcement then you press the first quick dial button again to stop the multicast sending. In this case 2N IP Video Kit sends another multicast command to all the intercoms (command=stopgroup01) and stops sending the multicast stream. Note: Sometimes it is also very useful to check somehow if the first quick dial was pressed for the first time (to establish a multicast session) or for the second time (to finish a multicast session). This indication can be configured with some of our intercoms – you can use LED diode or a button of 2N IP Safety which is always shining (idle time – no multicast stream initiated from this intercom) and once you press the button for the first time (to begin multicast a session) then this LED or button starts blinking (example below – 250ms shining and 250ms not).   Receive multicast: All other intercoms on the 1st floor have to be configured that once they receive a specific multicast request (group01 in our example) they will activate a channel and start listening on a specific multicast IP address and port. After that, once the announcement from the selected intercom is finished, then another multicast request is received (stopgroup01) and multicast channel is closed.       How to configure intercoms (2N IP Safety) on the 2nd floor? Configuration of intercoms on the 2nd floor will be almost the same as shown previously (1st floor) but in this case all intercoms send (and listen) multicast stream to IP address 224.10.10.2 and port 10 000. Also multicast request which activates / deactivates the channel was changed to "group02" for activation and to "stopgroup02" for deactivation. Send multicast:      Receive multicast:        How to configure 2N IP Audio Kit which can communicate with intercoms on the 1st floor as well as on the 2nd floor? Configuration of these selected intercoms which can send multicast traffic to the 1st floor as well as to the 2nd floor is a combination of two previous configurations. But keep in mind that these intercoms need to have at least 2 quick dial buttons (or a keypad). In this case you have to configure three functions in the Automation section. Function 1 is absolutely the same as shown for 2N IP Video Kit (1st floor intercom), Function 2 is the same as for 2N IP Safety (2nd floor intercom) and Function 3 ensures that you can receive multicast from 1st floor intercoms as well as from the 2nd floor intercoms. Send multicast (Send_To 1st Floor - downloadable here):    (Send_To 2nd Floor - downloadable here):          Receive multicast from different floors (Receive from 1st + 2nd Floor - downloadable here):          Note: All commands used in the Automation section are thoroughly described in our Automation manual altogether with corresponding examples.

Question 34

HTTP API - Configuration upload

Accepted Answer

You can edit various configurations in the 2N IP Intercoms via HTTP API commands:  Configuration backupRTSP Configuration example H.264 parametersConfiguration ExampleHTTP API Test Tool The HTTP API was designed for controling selected 2N IP Intercom functions via the HTTP protocol. It enables 2N IP Intercoms to be integrated easily with third party products, such as home automation, security and monitoring systems.Below is an example how you can change configuration  parameters of the 2N IP Intercom (video framerate/resolution) and upload them into the 2N IP Intercom via HTTP API. You can find a complete manual on this page: 2N IP Intercom HTTP API manual Once you download the config backup from the intercom, you can open it in Notepad++ or any other text editor (or Web Browser).  Configuration backup After downloading the config.xml file and opening it, you can see the configuration:  You can collapse (1) and expand (2) each category of the configuration file:     RTSP Configuration example In the picture you can see the section for RTSP:   For the H.264 codec, you can see:  - 1 - 3 - 4   These numbers correspond with the settings on 2N IP Intercoms — the number means always the position of the parameter, as shown on this screenshot above.  H.264 parameters   Video Framerate: 30 fps - (number 1 in the config file)      Video Resolution: VGA - (number 3 in the config file)    Video Bitrate: 512 kbps - (number 4 in the config file)      The logic for those parameters is always the same - always start from 0.  For example, Video Resolution in IP Vario with Camera: 0 - QCIF (176x144)1 - QVGA (320x240)2 - CIF (352x288)3 - VGA (640x480)   The /api/config function helps you upload or download the device configuration. The function is part of the System section and the user must be assigned the System Control privilege for authentication if required. The function is available with the Enhanced Integration licence (up to v2.35) or included in the basic installation (v2.35 onwards). Use the PUT method for configuration upload. The reply is in the application/json format and includes no other parameters.  Configuration Example If the command is sent successfully, following line will be returned: PUT /api/config{ "success" : true} HTTP API Test Tool  The put request can look like this  https://192.168.50.163/api/config  where the 192.168.50.163 is the IP address of the intercom.You can try this by using the HTTP API test tool available on https://2N_IP_Intercom_address/apitest.html     The example is in the attached picture, you need to upload the xml file with the configuration:

Question 38

License - How to get a license for 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. When delivered, all 2N IP Intercoms come with a free license. The only exception is 2N IP Vario with display, keypad, and camera (optional) which comes with preloaded Gold license. If you want to buy an additional license for any other models, the procedure is as follows:  If licensed features are required immediately or you just want to test all features supported by your 2N IP Intercom, please activate an 800 hour trial period in web interface of the unit. Go to section "System → License → Trial License".  Please check with your Account Manager or local reseller to find out whether you need a license or not. Devices running 2N OS 2.35 or higher now come preloaded with more features thanks to the simplification of our licensing policy. Enhanced Audio, Enhanced Security and NFC licenses are now free, along with HTTP API functionality that was previously part of Enhanced Integration. You can also find more information about license policy in "2N IP Intercom Configuration manual" – 3.2 Function Licensing As a result of the simplification, the only available licenses are:  Gold (Part No. 9137909) – which contains all remaining functions except for  InformaCast (Part No. 9137910, Axis Part No. 01381-001) – which allows the use of the SingleWire InformaCast protocol.  All other licenses were discontinued, but our devices are still compatible with them. This means that if your device with 2N OS 2.34 only has, for example, an Enhanced Integration license, and you update it to 2N OS 2.35 or higher, you’ll now have your original license plus what was in Enhanced Audio, Enhanced Security and NFC licenses for free.   Info   Codec G.729 can be used without a license key in SW versions 2.25 and higher. No licensed features are available for the 2N IP Uni.    The license overview does not apply to the US, Canada, Mexico, Caribbean, and Central and South America.    Once you choose the appropriate license, please contact your 2N reseller. If you are a 2N partner, you can contact our Customer Care department at  customercare@2n.com  and they will generate it for you.

Question 39

License Plate Recognition (LPR)

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.   2N devices can use recognized license plates as another credential for entry or exit. License plates may be assigned to a user and their validity is controlled by the same access rules as their other credentials.   Prerequisites 2N IP Intercom (except 2N IP Uni) or 2N Access Unit with the latest firmware no additional license is required  optionally 2N Access Commander (latest version) no additional license is required  Axis network camera with ARTPEC-6 / ARTPEC-7 / ARTPEC-8 chip(verify the suitable camera with Axis according to chosen LPR app below)additional license from Axis can be required according to selected LPR app  License Plate Recognition app Vaxtor VaxALPR On Camera (version 2.2.15+) or Axis License Plate Verifier (version 2.1+)     Feature properties License plate recognition (LPR) works outside of Access Profiles set in Services - Access Control - Entry or Exit Rules, and as such can’t be combined with other credentials for combined authentication.  Version 3.0 or later If the feature is enabled and a valid HTTP request is received, this event is recorded into the event log of the 2N device as LicensePlateRecognized with the following parameters:   ap ... access control direction, entry (0) or exit (1) session ... ID of the authentication session  licensePlate ... the license plate recognized by the camera    valid ... whether the licensePlate has the right to enter (true) or not (false) uuid ... linking to a specific user ID, if licensePlate isn’t assigned to any users, the uuid parameter will be left out      Optionally, a snapshot containing a recognized license plate may be attached to the LPR HTTP request. The device receiving these requests can then store up to 5 most recent snapshots, downloadable by 2N Access Commander via access log.One license plate should always be assigned to one user, otherwise its access rules may not be applied correctly if different users have different access rules. The first match found in the directory will be used for authentication.      Version 2.50 (LTS) or earlier If the feature is enabled and a valid HTTP request is received, this event is recorded into the event log of the 2N device as LicensePlateRecognized with the following parameters:   ap ... access control direction, entry (0) or exit (1) session ... ID of the authentication session  licensePlate ... the license plate recognized by the camera   valid ... whether the licensePlate has the right to enter (true) or not (false) uuid ... linking to a specific user ID, if licensePlate isn’t assigned to any users, the uuid parameter will be left out       Optionally, a snapshot containing a recognized license plate may be attached to the LPR HTTP request. The device receiving these requests can then store up to 5 most recent snapshots, downloadable by 2N Access Commander via access log.One license plate should always be assigned to one user, otherwise its access rules may not be applied correctly if different users have different access rules. The first match found in the directory will be used for authentication.          2N device configuration Let’s configure the intercom or access unit first to have everything prepared for the integration. If you use Access Commander to manage your device, you only need to set up HTTP API access in this section, and then please continue to the next section: 2N Access Commander configuration      Version 3.0 or later Go to Integration - HTTP API section. Now click on the "Switch to the old interface" button to continue setup in the old interface (switch to the 2.50 (LTS) section for this setup)   Go to Access - Access Rules section. Enable Entry, Exit, or both, depending on whether the device your camera is connected to functions as an entry point, an exit point, or both.If the 2N device is connected to 2N Access Commander, then the following settings are managed by it.     After you enable either Access, Exit or both, go to the License plate recognition section on the same page click on the "Switch to the old interface" button to continue setup in the old interface (switch to the 2.50 (LTS) section for this setup)  Go to Directory section.If the 2N device is connected to 2N Access Commander, then the following settings are managed by it. Here, create a user and add their license plates in Credentials > Add credentials > License plateYou can enter up to 20 license plates, each license plate can contain up to 10 characters – spaces are ignored.             Version 2.50 (LTS) or earlier  Go to Services > HTTP API section.  In the Services tab, make sure Access Control API is enabled.We recommend using Secure (TLS) / Digest as connection / authentication type.       Then continue to Account # tab, enable it, enter credentials you’d like to use, and tick the Access Control privilege for CONTROL.         Go to Services - Access Control section.If the 2N device is connected to 2N Access Commander, then the following settings are managed by it. In the Entry Rules or Exit Rules tab, Advanced Settings part, select Opening by License Plate from the License Plate Recognition dropdown menu.         Go to Directory - Users section.If the 2N device is connected to 2N Access Commander, then the following settings are managed by it. Here, create a user and add their license plates under Car Fleet Management. You can enter up to 20 license plates separated by commas, each license plate can contain up to 10 characters – spaces are ignored.          2N Access Commander configuration (optional)     If the 2N device is connected to 2N Access Commander, then most of settings, incl. LPR, are managed by it.But still you have to configure the device’s HTTP API credentials directly in the device configuration as described in the previous section. Go to Devices section. Open details of the device you already prepared for LPR.        Assign the device to the proper zone.       If you see there "Lift control activated" message, please deactivate this feature first.          Go to Zones section.Open used zone details.      Enable License Plate Authentication.       Go to Users section.Assign one ore more license plates to the user.          Verify that this user is assigned to the correct group.        Go to Access rules section.Create an access rule matching the target group and zone.      Go to Settings - CAM logs section.Optionally, here you can configure getting photos of recognized license plates.Create a new CAM log.      Select the Car license plate recognized as monitored event.      Then select devices you want to receive photos from.         The function is ready to use.       Go to Access log section. You will see a record once a license plate is recognized. You can expand its details and if there are CAM Logs available, you will see this small icon. Once you click it, you should see an overview of all attached photos.                 If you have older version of the system with different look of the web interface, please click here.   When a 2N device is connected to 2N Access Commander, then most of its settings are managed by it. Thus, LPR settings will be managed by 2N Access Commander, but still you have to configure the device’s HTTP API credentials as those are device dependent.  Configure your 2N Access Commander as you normally would. Then open details of the device you already prepared for LPR  and make sure it has Lift Control turned off and that it’s assigned to the proper zone.  Then go to this Zone’s detail and enable License Plate Authentication.  Users can have their license plates assigned  under Accesses>Car License Plates, click ADD, enter one or more license plates, and confirm by clicking create.     Verify that this user is assigned to the correct group  and create an Access Rule for it.  Optionally, if you’d like to get photos of recognized license plates, you can create + NEW CAM LOGS. Name the log accordingly, select “Car license plate recognized” and click create.  Then ADD all devices you want to receive photos from to this CAM Log.  Once everything is configured, Access Logs will show up once a license plate is recognized.  You can expand its details and if there are CAM Logs available, you will see this small icon.  Once you click it, you should see an overview of all attached photos.          LPR app installation into Axis network camera and configuration   There are two options to choose from, click on the selected option to view the guide.    Vaxtor VaxALPR On Camera   We’ll only configure the most important settings, for detailed information please see the VaxALPR user manual:https://vaxtor.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/VaxALPR-On-Camera-Axis-Camera-Integration-EN_2.0-May-2020.pdf    Log in to suitable Axis network camera with ARTPEC-6 / ARTPEC-7 / ARTPEC-8 chipand enter Settings.       Go to the Apps tab and add the new one.

Question 42

Multicast Stream configuration with IP Audio Manager

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.      Sending or receiving multicast stream from/to 2N IP Intercom is a feature that can be used for emergency calls or just for any announcement that will be sent from/to 2N IP Audio Manager. How to set both scenarios can be found in description below.  How to receive multicast stream from 2N IP Audio Manager If you want to set 2N IP Intercom as a audio destination for 2N IP Audio Manager  , you must connect it as a RTP destination.   2N IP Audio Manager setting  Open 2N IP Audio Control Panel and go to section Destinations & Zones. Here click on right mouse button and choose the option "Create RTP destination".    Then choose created RTP destination and specify IP Address and Port on which your   2N IP Intercom   will be  listening.    As a last step in 2N IP Audio Manager  settings go to Sessions, create a new session and assign previously created RTP destination as the destination for audio broadcasting.     2N IP Intercom setting Configuration on 2N IP Intercom side is very easy, all you need to do is to go to the section Services -> Streaming -> Multicast and activate the multicast receiving. In Address and Port parameters specify the same IP address and port which you added to 2N IP Audio Control Panel.        How to send multicast stream to 2N IP Audio Manager If you want to use 2N IP Intercom for making announcements to all speakers connected to  2N IP Audio Manager  , you must connect it as new RTP source.  2N IP Audio Manager setting Open  2N IP Audio Control Panel   and go to section Audio Sources. Here create new RTP source and specify for it Port and IP address on which you will be sending announcements.  When the RTP source is created, go to section Sessions and create a new session. Here add a new RTP destination as audio source, specify units or zones to which you want to broadcast and the activate the session.    2N IP Intercom setting For setting the paging function on 2N IP Intercom you have to use Automation feature. How to do this is described in this FAQ: Automation, Multicast paging - How to configure paging from 2N IP Intercoms  The settings mean that if any user presses the quick dial button 5 on the  2N IP Intercom (for this settings you need to have the intercom with 6 buttons), then the user´s sound is sent as a multicast request to all other devices. This sound takes 2 seconds. After that period of time you can start talking and  2N IP Intercom  will stream this multicast traffic to 2N IP Audio Manager   . If you want to stop multicast streaming, you just press the quick dial button 5 again.   Note: All commands used in the Automation section are deeply described in our 2N Automation manual where you can find also some examples. This manual is available on our web pages:https://wiki.2n.com/hip/auto/latest/en

Question 44

OpenVPN server & client

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.   This guide describes connecting 2N IP intercom, 2N LTE intercom or 2N Access Unit to the user’s remote LAN by OpenVPN server.   Disclaimer    Please note that this guide and its content is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind, express or implied. Therefore by using it you hereby agree that you are aware of this content functionality, limitations and consequences, you acknowledge that the guide content is provided for limited purpose.   2N TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s. shall not be held liable for function limitations, security limitations or damage, if any, incurred as a result of using this guide.   Please also note that various Linux distributions or versions may not accept all commands shown in this guide and 2N TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s. does not provide support for Linux.        Prerequisites     2N IP Intercom / 2N LTE Intercom / 2N Access Unit with the latest firmwareno additional license is requiredLinux PC with this applications: openvpn (server)stunnel4bridge-utilslshw Network requirements: Public IP address at the router on local network side where OpenVPN server is, accessible from the Internet with a possibility of redirecting TCP port 443 to LAN (DMZ for OpenVPN server optional).DHCP at the local network side where OpenVPN server is.Intel PRO/1000T Server compatible network controller with enabled Promiscuous Mode   IT knowledge requirements: bash scripting,certificates, Linux command line (bash),networking,SSL,VPN        Technical network information Solution is designed for OpenVPN to be installed on Linux.2N OpenVPN server is designed to connect 2N devices exclusively, 3rd party devices or software may not be able to connect properly.This connection creates network bridge and thus enables connection to 2N device in the same way as it would be in the local network, so it can be used as usual (for calls, video surveillance of its IP camera, 2N Access Commander connection, etc.). Device which is in the same local network as OpenVPN server does not need to be connected to VPN, since all devices connected over VPN will have local network IP addresses from local DHCP.      2N device obtains IP address from local network DHCP where OpenVPN server is, uses network protocols like ARP, can perform broadcast and so on.VPN connection is pushed through stunnel for additional level of security.In case you cannot put OpenVPN server machine to DMZ and you need to use standard LAN and private address, you need to setup port forwarding so incoming connections from Internet to OpenVPN server reach target machine. You will also need to allow such communication on router's firewall.   Configure the local network on its router – set DHCP IP reservation for OpenVPN server virtual machine (based on MAC address of virtual machine's ethernet port). DHCP server will always assign the same IP address.Configure port forwarding if needed - forward public port to port 443 TCP on IP address assigned by DHCP for OpenVPN server.Choose public port number above 1024 TCP to avoid using privileged ports.    2N OpenVPN server installation   All examples shown in this article are for Debian 10 and require to be run with elevated rights, either login as root or use proper command to gain required rights. On the Linux machine, deploy stunnel4, openvpn, bridge-utils and lshw via command in the command line.apt-get install -y stunnel4 openvpn bridge-utils lshw >/dev/null Create certificates for OpenVPN. You need server certificate, server key, ca and intercom certificate with intercom key. Then you need to put those certificates to correct folders for stunnel, openvpn and intercoms. You can do it manually or use the script below. This script will generate unique certificates each time it is run and put them in /tmp/certs folder. Then it moves all required certificates to appropriate folders. It also generates client certificates for IP Intercoms / Access Units and place them to folder /root/certs from where you can download them.To make script run, you need to save it in EOL conversion to UNIX and encoding UTF-8 format as .sh file, then upload it and apply chmod a+x to make script executable.In the script example, the intercom.key password is set to Test1234, but due to security we recommend to create your own certificates with own password and settings, use this example as a reference only. 2N TELEKOMUNIKACE a.s. does not hold any responsibility if example certificates will not be secure enough. #!/bin/bash ################################################################################ # Settings                                                                     # ################################################################################ # Certificates C_C=""     # Country Name (2 letter code) C_ST=""    # State or Province Name C_L=""     # Locality Name C_O=""     # Organization Name C_OU=""    # Organizational Unit Name C_CN=""    # Common Name ################################################################################ VERSION=1.0 ################################################################################ print_step() {     echo -n "${1} ...

RTP destinations - How to test it with VLC media player?

Accepted Answer

In case you would like to test RTP destinations and you do not have any devices which supports this feature, you can use VLC media player instead of the device. This "how to manual" will show you, how easy it is to set it up and make it work. As a first step download the VLC media player and run the installation on your PC.  Setting up 2N IP Audio Control Panel  run 2N IP Audio Control Panel – use the Tray Icon in the right bottom corner  RTP destinations feature is under the license, but in default is 1x RTP license for free. To test this feature you do not need any licence.  In case you need to use more than one RTP destination, ask for license: 1x RTP add on license order number: 914202E. Send your request to email:  sales@2n.com or to your sales representative. Together with the license order send the ID key of the computer on which is the 2N® IP Audio Manager running. This ID key can be found in menu: Administrator/ Licences - see picture below:    use the Add licence button to upload it  choose the path to the licence key on your PC  licence will be added and displayed in field Licence features – see picture below    Now you can create more RTP destinations up to the license limit    Creating RTP destination  in menu Destinations & Zones go to bookmark All Destinations. Here you can create RTP destination: right mouse click button in the field, where are displayed 2N® Net Audio Decoder units or in left menu click on Create RTP destination.    after creating RTP destination you can edit its properties: Audio codec, IP address, Port, TTL parameter keep it in default (-1), or according your network setting you can change the value.  if you are going to use VLC media player on the same PC where does 2N® IP Audio Manager run, it is needed to change at least the port 6999 – this port is a communication port of 2N® IP Audio Manager and it is therefore already occupied and the RTP stream would not have to work.    go to menu Sessions and Create session, add some source e.g. play-list or internet radio and use the RTP destination as a destination together or instead of 2N® Net Audio Decoder units.   Setting up the VLC media player  run the VLC media player  go to menu Media and choose option Open Network Stream    enter the full IP address, including the protocol and port from which stream you want to capture.    you can now listen to the music via RTP stream which you have created.   TIP: for better sound quality you can use/setup in RTP destination a better codec for streaming: Linear PCM 16bit Stereo

Question 50

SIP Proxy registration

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.   2N IP Intercom can be registered to SIP Proxy (PBX) and dial its extensions like you know from an IP phone, using the extension number. Direct call without SIP Proxy registration is described in this article: Direct call without SIP Proxy registration   Prerequisites 2N IP Intercom with the latest firmware,no additional license is required.SIP Proxy registration detailsFor calling you need extension number of another SIP device registered under the same SIP Proxy.     Explanation of IP Telephony Terms  SIP (Session Initiation Protocol)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.2N IP Intercoms support three ways of SIP signalling:  User Datagram Protocol (UDP),the most frequently used unsecured signalling method.  Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), less frequent, yet recommended unsecured signalling method.  Transaction Layer Security (TLS), where SIP messages are secured against third party monitoring and modification.   SIP ProxyIP 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 RegistrarAn 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)A protocol defining the standard packet format for audio and video transmission in IP networks. 2N IP Intercom 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).      Click here for instructions for firmware 3.0 and newer Read more about the differences in long-term support and active track 2N OS. Firmware 2.50 and older (LTS)   SIP Proxy registration 2N IP Intercom allows two independent SIP accounts to be configured. Thus, it can be registered under two extension numbers, with two different SIP exchanges and so on. Both the SIP accounts process incoming calls equivalently. Outgoing calls are primarily processed by account 1, or, if account 1 is not registered (due to SIP exchange error, e.g.), by account 2.

Troubleshooting basics – Configuration backup, network trace, syslog and ping tool on 2N IP Intercoms

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. Dear customers, In case you have found any issue with the device, please report it to https://support.2n.com/. If you do not have access informations, contact your account manager.Or you can report your issue by creating a ticket - here. Reported issue should contain following information: Please describe us your issue in detail, so that we will be able to replicate the behaviour based on that description. Send us the description of the LAN topology, NATs, IP addresses, etc.  If you have an issue regarding electrical circuit please send us a diagram of your eletrical circuit. Including specifications of the device being controlled by 2N IP Intercom eg. Magnetic locks, Electro-magnetic locks, Lights etc.  If your issue can be clearly visible or heard eg. LED blinking, bad sound quality, please take a picture or record a video (eg. on a phone) and send us this behaviour. You can attach it to the e-mail or upload it to eg. WeTransfer, Dropbox or Google Drive and send us the download link.    Configuration backupNetwork trace Local Packet Capturing - "Short" traceRemote Packet Capturing - "Long" trace Local SyslogSyslog server Ping tool    Configuration backup How to back up the current device configuration can be seen in the picture below.   Backup and firmware update notice  Make sure to always back up your device's configuration before you start firmware update. Newer configuration file might not be compatible with your previous FW should you need to use it due to some compatibility issues etc.    Notice: It's highly recommended to always use the latest FW version available on the  2N webpage before you report a technical issue! The issue you might be facing may already be fixed.      Please always send us information about your intercom's FW version and its serial number.   Network trace How to capture network traces on 2N IP intercoms?   Buffer length warning Because the buffer for traces is limited, it is really necessary to start the trace right before you make the test call and then stop it before it reaches the maximum buffer size – 4096kB!    Caution: If there is a video stream active during the trace the files can grow large.   Local Packet Capturing - "Short" trace The advantage of the local packet capturing is that it is automatically launched upon boot up so it is possible to download the trace including already ended call while you have to manually launch the remote packet capturing. First of all, start the capture by clicking the "Start" button, make a call and stop the capture by clicking the "Stop" button, then click the "Download" button to download the trace file (hiptrace.pcap) and send it to us.        Remote Packet Capturing - "Long" trace Similarly, you can use remote packet capturing. This has no limit so it can be used for longer tests. Start the capture by clicking the "Start" button, choosing how long it should be traced for. Once the time limit is reached or stopped manually by the "Stop" button the trace will be downloaded automatically.    Send us the description of used LAN topology, NATs, IP addresses, devices you're trying to integrate with, etc. that might help in solving the issue.   Local Syslog You can either set up a Syslog server or use the local Syslog which can run up to 7 days (it can be interrupted at will). If the local Syslog is too large the beginning might be overwritten. Local Syslog is not suitable for troubleshooting sudden restarts as some of the messages might not be saved before the reboot. We recommend using a Syslog server for situations like these.  The controls are the same as with the network trace.   Syslog server  The 2N IP intercoms allow you to send system messages to the Syslog server including relevant information on the device states and processes for recording, analysis and audit. It is unnecessary to configure this service for common intercom operations.   The advantage of the external Syslog is that it captures logs even around the reboot (good for troubleshooting issues with sudden restarts etc.). Set the Server Address in our example we use 192.168.1.15 - IP Address of a PC where Syslog server is installed (such as Wireshark or Syslog Watcher)    Using SyslogWatcher - download trial hereStart the server - it will take a few seconds until you see any messages  Stop server - press after you are done with capturingExport - press this button to export messages to fileExport Settings - Choose the time from/to according to what 2N Tech support demands (1h, 24h) Custom files (CSV/XML/TXT/JSON/etc) - type of file  Export folder - choose the path to save the fileFilename - the name of the file (in default it is the date of Syslog capturing) -> export the file with .txt suffix and send it to us      Ping tool Ping tool allows you to ping internet addresses. This way you can check whether the device itself has a proper internet connection.

Question 59

VoIP trunk - How to setup with IP phone

Accepted Answer

Thanks to the VoIP interface integration you can do live announcement to the 2N Net Audio Decoder system from any IP phone or IP PBX/SIP proxy. In this FAQ you can see an example of using IP phone in mode point-to-point (without registration to the IP PBX). What is important to know:  VoIP trunk is used as an Audio Source in Session with defined destinations  VoIP trunk is always created between 2N IP Audio Manager and IP devices (IP phone, IP PBX / SIP proxy)  VoIP trunk supports two modes:  point-to-point (not registered) IP device is calling IP address of the PC on which is 2N IP Audio Manager running and port which is defined in VoIP input  registered to proxy - VoIP trunk is registered to the account created on IP PBX/SIP proxy. To make an announcement you are calling number of the account under which is VoIP trunk registered.   After the call is established, caller can hear a GONG and after that can do the announcement  Supported codecs: G.711a   Setting up the announcement: To make an announcement via 2N IP Audio Manager we use IP phone, which is not registered to IP PBX. Call (VoIP trunk) would be in mode point-to-point. From IP phone we would call IP address of the PC on which is running 2N IP Audio Manager and port which is defined in Local VoIP input. 10.0.14.23 - IP address of the PC on which is installed 2N IP Audio Manager 5061 - listening port in created VoIP trunk 10.0.14.37 - IP address of the IP phone. To make a call we are going to use speed dial button.  run 2N IP Audio Control Panel applicationin menu Audio Sources click on Create VoIP input. Choose mode Local VoIP input. If needed you can change listening port. Save configuration.    in menu Sessions create new Session and add VoIP input as a source. Add destinations to which should be the announcement routed.    that is all what you need to setup in 2N IP Audio Control Panel  IP phone setting (Well T26)  In the next step, set the call from IP phone under the speed dial button, so you do not have to manually dial the entire string of characters that should be dialled when using point-to-point mode.Speed dial button - setup the following string: sip: x@10.0.14.23: 5061 (x - non existing user, 10.0.14.23 - IP address of the 2N® IP Audio Manager , 5061 - VoIP input listening port )    by this step is all needed setting done. To make an announcement press the speed dial button and after the GONG sound you can start to talk.  Tip: to dial only number of the extension/account e.g. 101 you need to use IP PBX/SIP proxy and registered VoIP trunk. When you hear GONG but no voice, check if you are not running ethernet and WiFi connection at the same time. As a next option you can try to switch OFF and ON 2N® IP Audio Manager.
