Trusted CA
Use this screen to view a summary list of certificates of the certification authorities
that you have set the ZyXEL Device to accept as trusted. The ZyXEL Device
accepts any valid certificate signed by a certification authority on this list as being
trustworthy; thus you do not need to import any certificate that is signed by one
of these certification authorities.

VoIP
16.1
Overview
Use this chapter to:
Connect an analog phone to the ZyXEL Device.
Make phone calls over the Internet, as well as the regular phone network.
Configure settings such as speed dial.
Configure network settings to optimize the voice quality of your phone calls.
16.1.1
What You Can Do in this Chapter
These screens allow you to configure your ZyXEL Device to make phone calls over
the Internet and your regular phone line, and to set up the phones you connect to
the ZyXEL Device.
Use the
SIP Service Provider
screen to configure the SIP server information,
QoS for VoIP calls, the numbers for certain phone functions (
Section 16.3 on
page 235
).
Use the
SIP Account
screen to set up information about your SIP account,
control which SIP accounts the phones connected to the ZyXEL Device use and
configure audio settings such as volume levels for the phones connected to the
ZyXEL Device
(
Section 16.3 on page 235
).
Use the
Common
screen to configure RFC3262 support on the ZyXEL Device
(
Section 16.5 on page 242
).
Use the
Phone Device
screen to control which SIP accounts the phones
connected to the ZyXEL Device use (
Section 16.6 on page 243
).
Use the
Region
screen to change settings that depend on the country you are
in (
Section 16.7 on page 245
).
Use the
Call Rule
screen to set up shortcuts for dialing frequently-used (VoIP)
phone numbers (
Section 16.8 on page 245
).
You don’t necessarily need to use all these screens to set up your account. In fact,
if your service provider did not supply information on a particular field in a screen,
it is usually best to leave it at its default setting.

16.1.2
What You Need to Know
The following terms and concepts may help as you read this chapter.
VoIP
VoIP stands for Voice over IP. IP is the Internet Protocol, which is the message-
carrying standard the Internet runs on. So, Voice over IP is the sending of voice
signals (speech) over the Internet (or another network that uses the Internet
Protocol).
SIP
SIP stands for Session Initiation Protocol. SIP is a signalling standard that lets one
network device (like a computer or the ZyXEL Device) send messages to another.
In VoIP, these messages are about phone calls over the network. For example,
when you dial a number on your ZyXEL Device, it sends a SIP message over the
network asking the other device (the number you dialed) to take part in the call.
SIP Accounts
A SIP account is a type of VoIP account. It is an arrangement with a service
provider that lets you make phone calls over the Internet. When you set the
ZyXEL Device to use your SIP account to make calls, the ZyXEL Device is able to
send all the information about the phone call to your service provider on the
Internet.
Strictly speaking, you don’t need a SIP account. It is possible for one SIP device
(like the ZyXEL Device) to call another without involving a SIP service provider.
However, the networking difficulties involved in doing this make it tremendously
impractical under normal circumstances. Your SIP account provider removes these
difficulties by taking care of the call routing and setup - figuring out how to get
your call to the right place in a way that you and the other person can talk to one
another.
Voice Activity Detection/Silence Suppression
Voice Activity Detection (VAD) detects whether or not speech is present. This lets
the ZyXEL Device reduce the bandwidth that a call uses by not transmitting “silent
packets” when you are not speaking.
Comfort Noise Generation
When using VAD, the ZyXEL Device generates comfort noise when the other party
is not speaking. The comfort noise lets you know that the line is still connected as
total silence could easily be mistaken for a lost connection.
