Accessing VoIP settings in SageVue 

1. Open a browser and login to your Sagevue webpage.
2. Navigate to "Devices" on the right side of your browser.
3. Click on the device description of a device running a configuration that has a VoIP interface
4. Navigate to the VoIP configuration tab. (If you cannot access the VoIP settings make sure your account has read/write permissions for VoIP settings.  More information on user roles can be found on the online SageVue help page.)
5. Select the correct interface that adjustments are going to be made on.
6. If you'd like to set the same settings on all VoIP interfaces within this device, enable the "Configure all VoIP cards in this device" option. Note that only fields highlighted in yellow can be updated on multiple endpoints at once.

Network Configuration 

7. Under the Network region of the screen, set “VLAN Tagging” to “Enabled” if your VoIP network uses a tagged VLAN.  If the network uses an untagged VLAN or no VLAN, leave this value as “Disabled”.  If VLAN is enabled, enter the correct VLAN ID.
8. Leave “DHCP” set to “Enabled” if the Tesira endpoint will obtain an IP address automatically from a DHCP server.  Otherwise, set “DHCP” to “Disabled”, and manually enter an appropriate static IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway for the Tesira.

Protocol Configuration

19. More Advanced features such as transport type, QoS settings, and Local Dial Plan can only be changed via the Tesira software or the VoIP webpage. These settings are optional and often don't need to be changed from their default values.
