DHCP server, and the address and port is translated by the SPA8000 using Network Address Translation
(NAT) and Port Address Translation (PAT). The packet must then be routed back to the internal network
on the SPA8000 by the local router or the ISP router.
Problems can occur with calls between phones connected to the SPA8000 when an outbound proxy or a
router with hairpinning support is not available. The SPA8000 cannot directly connect the two telephone
devices, but requires a local or remote router to route the packet back to its destination on the local
network from which it originated.
The necessary routing can be provided by a router with hairpinning support, or by an outbound SIP
proxy, which is typically provided by the Internet Telephony Service Provider (ITSP). When relying on
the ITSP for interconnecting phones on the SPA8000, local phones connected to the SPA8000 are unable
to communicate with each other if the Internet connection is not available for any reason. It is
recommended you connect the SPA8000 to a local router that provides hairpinning support to prevent
this problem.
Using the Interactive Voice Response Interface
This section describes how to read or write basic network configuration settings using a touchtone
telephone connected to one of the FXS (RJ-11) phone ports of the Linksys ATA. It includes the
following topics:
Using the IVR Menu, page 2-18
IVR Options, page 2-19
Entering a Password through the IVR, page 2-21
By default, there is no password required for any of the IVR options. If the Administrator account
password is set, password authentication is required for some options.
The interactive voice response (IVR) features that are available depend on your system configuration.
A convenient quick-reference for the IVR is available at the following website:
Using the IVR Menu
To use the IVR menu, complete the following steps.
Step 1
Connect an analog telephone to the Phone 1 or Phone 2 port of the Linksys ATA.
Note
You can only access the IVR menu through an analog telephone, not an IP phone.
Step 2
Press
****
(quickly
press the star key four times).
Wait until you hear “Linksys configuration menu.”
Note
You cannot access the IVR from a phone that is currently connected to a call.
Step 3

Table 1-25
to identify the option required.
Step 4
Enter the required option followed by the # (pound) key.
