AudioCodes 405 settings
This reference describes all the settings associated with the AudioCodes 405 phone.
For information on creating the actual phone configuration in Genesys Cloud, see Create the base settings and Create a phone.
Base Settings
Before you can create a phone, you must create a Base Settings configuration for that phone model. The Base Settings configuration contains a group of settings that define how a particular phone model is to operate in Genesys Cloud. Once you create a Base Settings configuration, you can assign it to a phone with the default settings, or you can customize the settings. This section describes all the settings that you can configure when you choose to customize a Base Settings configuration.
Menu: Telephony / Phone Management / Base Settings / Create-Edit Base Settings
Tab: Base Phone
Section: Phone Configuration
Setting | Description |
---|---|
Dynamic Reload |
Enabled (Default): Allow the dynamic reloading of the phone configuration. Disabled: Do not allow dynamic reloading. |
Web/TUI Authentication |
Set up an administrative password for configuring the phone from a web-based interface or from the Telephone User Interface/LCD on the phone. By default the password is masked, but you can select the Show Password check box to see the password in plain-text. |
Time Settings | |
Timezone Discovery |
Enabled (Default): Automatically sets the timezone for the phone based on the timezone of the DHCP server. Disabled : Allows manually setting the timezone based on GMT. |
SNTP Server | Sets the name of the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) server from which the phone obtains the current time. |
GMT Offset |
When Timezone Discovery is Enabled, this setting is automatically configured from DHCP. When Timezone Discovery is Disabled, use this field to set the number of hours to offset the time of the phone from GMT. Note: When Timezone Discovery is Disabled and Daylight Saving Time is enabled, you should calculate the GMT offset based on the standard timezone.
|
Daylight Saving Time |
Enabled (Default): Allows Daylight Savings Time (DST) to display on the phone. Use the Start and End fields (Week, Day, Month, and Time) to specify the period that DST is in effect. Disabled: Do not display DST on the phone. |
Setting | Description | ||||||||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
DSCP | Use the list to choose the Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) value for Quality of Service (QoS). The system places this value in the upper 6 bits of the TOS (Type Of Service) field. The TOS field is in the IP header of every SIP packet. The range of values available is 00 (0,000000) through 3F (63, 111111). Default is 2E (46, 101110) EF. | ||||||||||||||||

||||||||||||||||
DTMF Method |
Use the list to select the method to use to transmit dual-tone multifrequency (DTMF) signaling. Select RTP Events to enable out-of-band processing of events from the RTP stream (RFC 4733). Select In-band Audio for the processing, detection, and synthesis from the audio codec stream. The default value is RTP Events. |
||||||||||||||||
Gain Settings |
Use these fields to specify volume level settings, in decibals dB, for the various phone interfaces: Handset, Handsfree, Headset
