Figure 1: Diagram of MaxCS, Firewall/NAT, and AudioCodes gateway

Prerequisites

To set up analog extensions using an AudioCodes MP-11x or MP-124 gateway, you must meet the following require-

ments:

You must be running either MaxCS Release 7.0 Enterprise or MaxCS Private Cloud.

Proper configuration for MaxCS behind NAT is required (including the port forwarding and Enterprise Manager

settings). Any AltiGen IP phones behind NAT should already be working correctly behind the on-premise firewall.

The AudioCodes gateway must already have a static IP address and must be able to be configured through the

web interface.

Make sure that your AudioCodes gateway is running the correct version of firmware: Click the Home button and

check that you have firmware version 6.60A.265.010 or later.

You must have a valid MaxCS 3

rd

-party SIP license to implement analog support.

IMPORTANT!

If you plan to have your MP-118 gateway support both FXS and FXO, we recommend that you to

configure your analog extensions first, and then configure survival mode. A proxy group is required

when you are running both FXS and FXO on the same gateway.
