Foreword
RADview, RAD’s network management software is a portfolio of integrated software suites that allows management of heterogeneous networks from a single console. The PC and Unix-based solutions are Client-Server based systems that include “System” software application that’s integrated with several “Agent” applications that enable management of individual elements within the network.
RADview-RADview-SC/IPV is a PC-based Element Management System (EMS) providing configuration, fault and performance management over SNMP. The modular Element Management System (EMS) implements the first three layers of the industry standard TMN model:
• Network element layer
• Element management layer
• Network management layer
The RADview solutions conform to ITU-T Telecommunication Management Network (TMN) recommendations for SNMP management systems, known as the FCAPS model:
• Fault management – detects and correlates fault in network devices, isolates faults and initiates recovery actions.
• Configuration management – tracks configuration changes, configures, installs and distributes software and configuration files across the network.
• Accounting management – collects accounting data and generates network usage reports.
• Performance management – continuously monitors network performance (QoS, CoS) and resource allocation.
• Security management – controls and restricts access to network resources.
In addition to this system manual, RAD provides separate user manuals for each of the SNMP agents supported by the RADview-RADview-SC/IPV system.

RADview-SC/IPV Ver. 2.84 RAD VoIP System Overview 1-1
Chapter 1
Introduction This chapter provides an overview for using the RADview-SC/IPV IP telephony management solution. It introduces the graphical user interface. It is assumed that you are familiar with network terminology and concepts and using the Internet. This guide provides detailed information for managing data in an ISP (Internet Service Provider) account.
1.1 RAD VoIP System Overview
RVS (RAD VoIP System) is a packet base switching system that provides a tightly integrated solution for Telco, network owners, and service providers. The system provides a comprehensive communication access solution of telephony and data.
RVS is an open platform which can be seamlessly integrated with additional required components (for example, VoIP Gateways, billing systems, SIP networks, and IP-Phones).
This state-of-the art system comprises Web-based central provisioning, a management and control system, and powerful intelligent end-units, which converge telephony access and data capabilities. The central provisioning is the key part of the system.
One of the key problems facing service providers is the ability to manage routers, switches, and many thousands of IAD (Integrated Access Device) units deployed in their networks. The configuration and management of these end-devices is currently done manually, one at a time, by operations personnel. This practice is not conducive to profitable operations because it is prone to human error, thus creating service outages. IP Service Control Platforms enable service providers to create profitable new revenue streams while capitalizing on their existing infrastructure.
The RVS system platform comprises embedded end-units (IADs) and powerful software technologies all firmly integrated into a “Telco in a box” solution and it includes:
• IPVsuite™-200: VoIP soft switch and provisioning
• IPVswitch™-200: SIP soft switch
• IPVgate™: All-in-one gateways, routers, ADSL access points:
IPVgate-20A: Analog VoIP CPE (Customer Premises Equipment)
IPVgate-20B: BRI VoIP CPE
IPVgate-20P: PRI VoIP CPE
• RADview-SC/IPV: Management software.
Chapter 1 Introduction User's Manual
1-2 Task Management RADview-SC/IPV Ver. 2.84
1.2 RADview-SC/IPV Overview
RADview-SC/IPV is a centralized service management platform that includes single or multiple clusters (mirror architecture providing high availability of service), which consist of a communications server and a database (Oracle™) server. Its user-friendly Web interface incorporates a suite of high-reliability software to provide remote management, real-time monitoring statistics, network analysis, secured registration, and other advanced services. It supports service activation and provisioning, analysis and error management, security, address-resolving, billing data collection (auditing) and processing, usage and Call Detail Record (CDR) information, and massive remote upgrading firmware to thousands of devices with a single keystroke. RADview-SC/IPV functionality is extendable through flexible APIs (Application Program Interfaces) for integration with leading back office billing, provisioning, and customer care systems.
This comprehensive provisioning system enables providers to view, manage, maintain, and configure various CPEs and applications installed in the network at the subscriber site, thus reducing integration and operational costs of the CPEs network.
1.3 System Requirements
The system requirements of the RADview-SC/IPV management application include:
• Internet connection
• Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.5 (6.0 and above recommended)
• Java v1.4.2.4 virtual machine plugin
• Cookies enable for MSMC session support
• Screen resolution of 1024x768 pixels (1280x1024 recommended)
• URL for provider operator (provided by RVS Systems) to log in to RADview SC/IPV
• Provider password (required for operator (Root Provider) login only)
• Operator login name and password (“administrator” by default) and password (for operator) login).
1.4 Task Management
RADview provides a complete management solution for monitoring and controlling the SC/IPV equipment. RADview solutions conform to ITU-T Telecommunication Management Network (TMN) recommendations for SNMP management systems, known as the FCAPS model:
• Troubleshooting: Detects and correlates errors, and initiates recovery actions (as described in Chapter 7).
User's Manual Chapter 1 Introduction
RADview-SC/IPV Ver. 2.84 Task Management 1-3
• Configuration management: Tracks configuration changes and configures, installs, and distributes software and configuration files across the network for all network devices (as described in Chapters 3).
• Accounting management: Collects accounting data and generates network usage reports (as described in Chapter 5).
• Performance management: Continuously monitors network performance (QoS) resource allocation (as described in Chapter 5).
• Security management: Controls and restricts access to network resources (as described in Chapter 6).
RADview-SC/IPV Users
Management capabilities vary according to user type and rights. RADview-SC/IPV users include:
• Provider: Primary operator of RADview-SC/IPV. All operator, subscriber, and device accounts created are for a particular Provider. Each Provider account has the following:
Provider URL to log in to RADview-SC/IPV
Provider password
An operator called "Administrator".
This manual provides instructions for the Root Provider (main provider) . User rights and access vary per provider type. The Root Provider has rights to add new providers (Sub-Providers). Sub-Providers have limited access for performing operations.
• Operator: Controls how and why the data is changed in a Root Provider account. There is always at least one Administrator operator account in a particular Root Provider account. If you forget all passwords and login names, you must ensure that you know the password for the administrator, so you will be able to get the system working again. If you do not know the administrator information, or cannot locate it, please contact RVS technical support.
• Subscriber: Uses RVS devices and other IP telephony devices, pays for services, and has access to RADview-SC/IPV to configure a device and view its billing information. Each subscriber can have one or more devices registered on its name. Subscribers do not log in to the ISP account. Instead, they have their own account accessible through their own URL, which provides a way to change personal data, view device usage statistics, and so on.
RADview-SC/IPV Providers
RADview-SC/IPV supports two types of Provider accounts:
Root Provider: Owner of IPVsuite with access to all functionalities of RADview-SC/IPV and control of subscribers/devices of Sub-Providers.
Sub-Provider: Provider created by Root Provider with limited functionality and control only of its own subscribers/devices.

Chapter 2
Using the Graphical User Interface This chapter describes the RADview-SC/IPV graphic user interface (GUI).
2.1 Launching RADview-SC/IPV
Launch RADview-SC/IPV by logging in to the relevant URL address in Microsoft Internet Explorer browser.
2.2 Logging in to RADview-SC/IPV
Login varies according to user type and capabilities:
• Provider Operator: Full control over all RADview-SC/IPV functionalities, including multiple subscribers and device accounts, monitoring, device management, IPVswitch configuration, and so on.
• Subscriber: Limited access to own account data.
Provider Operator Login
To log in to the RADview-SC/IPV, the operator must have the following data:
• Provider operator login URL (Internet Address): Every Provider registered in a RADview-SC/IPV has its own unique URL to log in to the system. The URL consists of three parts:
"http://" prefix
Provider name
Domain name of the RADview-SC/IPV that holds this Provider information.
The full URL for a Root Provider that has the DNS name “myisp” is http://myisp.example.net; "example.net" is the domain name of the server in this case.
The Provider name usually consists of the short form of the title of this Provider. The top-level domain is provided by RVS Systems after the Provider account is configured for the first time.
• Provider password: According to the login name, there is a Provider login password. Every Operator that is authorized to operate a particular Provider account must enter the Provider password. Changing the Provider password
Chapter 2 Using the Graphical User Interface User's Manual
2-2 Logging in to RADview-SC/IPV RADview-SC/IPV Ver. 2.84
affects ALL operators, so they must enter the new password. Therefore, if you do not inform the operators of the password change, the operators will not be able to log in to RADview-SC/IPV in the future. Refer to the Security chapter, "Changing Provider Password” section for details about changing the Provider main password.
• Operator login name: Each operator must have a unique login name and password for a particular Provider account. Operators cannot change their login names. Only an operator belonging to the “Administrators” group can change the name.
• Operator login password: Must be at least six characters long and cannot contain the operator login name. For example: if the login name is smith, then any combinations such as 123smithAAA or 1bsmithA are not valid. However, 2smi5th is valid. Once defined, the password can be changed only in the following ways:
A default operator “administrator” can change any password for a particular Provider.
For each operator account there is a parameter called the "expiration date". This parameter controls the lifetime of the operator login password. If the expiration period of the password has passed, the operator cannot connect to RADview-SC/IPV until the password is changed. The operator is prompted to change the login password after logging in to RADview-SC/IPV.
• RADview SC/IPV has the following default passwords and Operator name:
Provider password: 123456
Operator name: administrator
Operator password: 123456.
Operator status determines whether login is possible:
• Available: The operator can log in to RADview-SC/IPV.
• Unavailable: The operator cannot log in to RADview-SC/IPV.
Some limitations:
• There is no way to delete an operator account physically from RADview-SC/IPV.
• To create a new operator account, you must login to RADview-SC/IPV as "administrator".
• It is possible to restore an "unavailable" operator account, but it is not recommended to enter new data into it.
To log in to RADview-SC/IPV as an operator:
1. Open Microsoft Internet Explorer browser (Version 5.5 and above required).
2. In the Address bar, type the Provider operator login URL (Internet address, for example, http://myisp.example.net), and press <Enter>.

To log in to RADview-SC/IPV, a subscriber must have the following data:
• Subscriber login URL (Internet Address) comprising two parts:
The string "user".
The RADview-SC/IPV top-level domain to which the subscriber is registered, for example, example.net.
The full URL for the subscriber to log in to the RADview-SC/IPV in this case is http://user.example.net.
This URL provides a way for a particular subscriber to change personal data, view device usage statistics, and so on.
• Subscriber login name.
• Subscriber login password.
Chapter 2 Using the Graphical User Interface User's Manual
2-6 Logging in to RADview-SC/IPV RADview-SC/IPV Ver. 2.84
Subscriber status determines whether login is possible:
• Available: Subscriber can login to RADview-SC/IPV
• Unavailable: Subscriber cannot log in to RADview-SC/IPV and all device accounts the subscriber owns are "unavailable" as well.
Only an operator with "Power User" or Administrator" access rights can cancel a subscriber’s account. After the subscriber account is canceled, the status changes to "unavailable".
To log in to RADview-SC/IPV as a subscriber:
1. Open Microsoft Internet Explorer (version 5.5 and above recommended).
2. Enter the subscriber login URL (for example, http://user.example.net) in the address field of the browser and press <Enter>.
Figure 2-3. Subscriber Login Page
3. Enter the required information (subscriber login name and password) and press <Enter> or click <Login>.
If the information is correct, the Subscriber Home page appears.
Figure 2-4. Subscriber Home Page
If any details entered in the Subscriber Login page are wrong, an “Invalid subscriber login name or password” message appears on the login page. The subscriber should verify the login information and try to log in again. If the
User's Manual Chapter 2 Using the Graphical User Interface
RADview-SC/IPV Ver. 2.84 Logging in to RADview-SC/IPV 2-7
message appears repeatedly, then the authentication information is incorrect and must be validated by the Provider support group.
The subscriber's password is restricted as follows:
• Must be at least six characters long.
• Cannot contain the subscriber’s login name.
For example, if the subscriber's login name is john, the following combinations are not valid: 123john, john1, or 1aaajohnbbb. However, jo4hn is valid.
Subscriber Home Page
The Subscriber Home page displays the following menu links, navigating the subscriber to viewed and even modified data about the account:
• Account: Opens the view-only Account page summarizing subscriber details and devices that belong to the account.
Figure 2-5. Account page
• Call Forwarding: Opens the Call Forwarding (“Follow Me”) page, where the subscriber can determine for each phone number on each device the conditions of redirecting the incoming calls to the voice mail number or email address, if enabled for the number or to another number. The voice mail service itself cannot be enabled or disabled in this page; only the operator can do this.
To save and undo changes and change the display of the Call Forwarding page:

Click <Save changes> to save changes made in this page, as well as in all pages in the Subscriber module (and not just “Call Forwarding” changes).
Click <Undo changes> to revert (undo) modifications made in this page only, without affecting other pages and without refreshing the page.
Click <View> (in the upper right corner of this page) to display submenu options for rearranging the Call Forwarding page display to show the numbers per device or in groups, as determined in the Telco Services page in the Device Configuration module of the operator’s portal. (Refer to the Configuration chapter section Telco Services).
Figure 2-6. Call Forwarding (Follow Me") Page
• Fwd. Scheduler: Opens the Call Forward Scheduler (Night Mode") page, where the subscriber can schedule and configure call forwarding on a daily and hourly basis. Calls can be forwarded to another number or to voice mail (when relevant). (If voice mail is available for the number, "Voice Mail service" appears in yellow text under the number on the left. If voice mail is not active an operator intervention is needed.) This page displays the subscriber’s phone numbers in local format (without the country and area codes). Target phone numbers (where to forward the call) can be entered in long international format (full number, with the “+”) or short number

Figure 2-7. Call Forward Scheduler (Night Mode") Page
• Phone Calls: Opens the view-only Phone Calls report, comprising multiple pages detailing all outgoing calls initiated by the subscriber for the last two months:
The page header displays statistical information, including total calls, average duration, minimum duration of call, and maximum duration of call.
Fields displaying call details include Date, From, To, Duration, and Type (Direct or Forwarded). (If the provider is defined as “working in privacy mode”, then in the To field the last three numbers are replaced with asterisks (*).)
Since only 20 calls are shown per page, navigation between pages is facilitated with <Next Page>, <Previous Page> and <Go To Page> commands.

2-10 Device Account Information RADview-SC/IPV Ver. 2.84
Figure 2-8. Phone Calls Page
2.3 Device Account Information
RADview-SC/IPV device accounts have distinct names, statuses, hardware, and software version relationships.
Device Names
In the relevant RADview-SC/IPV device pages (such as Find Device, Device Configuration, and so on) the full device name comprises:
• Device number: A regular telephone number, comprising country code, area code, and phone number.
• Domain name: Name that RADview-SC/IPV is authorized to provide to registered devices.
For example: 97249991212.example.net.
(It is extremely useful for the device to function in a “community mode”. The domain name in this case is actually a community name.)
Device Status
Device account status affects interaction with RADview-SC/IPV and configuration capabilities and can be any one of the following:
• Available: RADview-SC/IPV ready to receive billing information from the device, change the device configuration, and so on.
• Removed: Device's data changes are disabled. There is no way to change the status from “Removed” to any other status.
• Disabled: Device account is disabled. The device cannot receive or initiate calls. This status is reversible, and the operator can change the account status to “available” or “removed”.
User's Manual Chapter 2 Using the Graphical User Interface
RADview-SC/IPV Ver. 2.84 Using the Graphical User Interface 2-11
Hardware and Software Version Relationship
Each device has a set of hardware and software. To upgrade a particular device, the Operator should choose one of the available software versions in the list. The “Software installed”, “Hardware set”, and device “Model name” are not upgradeable. The Operator can change these settings only when the device is replaced at the Customer site.
The relationship between the Device Model, Hardware set, and Software Version is represented in the device Firmware section in the Device Configuration page, as shown in the following figure. (For instructions on accessing this page, refer to Configuration chapter, section Firmware.) The same logic is implemented also in the Find Device page, where there is a relation between the Device Model and Device Software Version fields.

the full device DNS name becomes myipc2.example.net. The alias is useful if you do not
want a subscriber to have to remember the full device number.
Domain Full DNS (Domain Name System) or device secondary domain name of device has two
parts: device full number and top-level domain in which the deivce is configured to work.
(A string follows the device full number in the device Internet address.) For example, in
the device address "9724999150.example.net", the device domain is "example.net".

Call Waiting If set, and a device is in use by one caller (there is calling session in progress), then the
other callee will get a vocal indication during the session that someone else is waiting on
the line. The device itself will “accept” call-waiting calls, if there is an available trunk to
accept the call, that is, if the called number is assigned to 2 trunks, then there will be
two “call-waiting” options, one for each trunk (and not for the same trunk).
This option, as a result, is closely connected to the “Numbering” feature in the
Telephony page.
Hot Line Point-to-point communications link where a call is automatically originated to a preset
destination without any additional action by the user (available when the end device
that is attached to the RAD device goes off-hook). Options include:
• Timeout: “Off-hook” timeout after which the device dials the hotline number. The
timeout count starts automatically if no other button has been pressed. (The timeout
does not start after a previous session has ended.)
• Tel. Number: Number to call when a timeout has occurred.
Service Configuration Options
Some services can be configured using three ways.
• Subscriber Interface
• Provider Interface
• Dialing sequence: Available for voicemail for activating/deactivating unconditional call forwarding to VM and for listening to incoming messages.

6.4 Managing Massive Upgrades
Administrators can perform massive upgrades to upgrade the software versions of multiple devices concurrently. (Operators without administrator rights can upgrade individual devices in the Device Configuration page, as explained in chapter 3, Configuration Management.)
The massive upgrade task is a set of rules by which the system chooses devices to upgrade. The list of devices may be updated by changing the task devices list creation rules. The rule consists of parameters such as target device software version, FTP servers, IP addresses the devices use for new software versions, the date for starting this upgrade task, and so on.
To access the Massive Upgrade Manager:
1. Log in to RADview-SC/IPV using the Root Provider login URL.
2. In the Provider Home page, click <Administrative Tools>.
3. In the Administrative Tools page, click <Massive Upgrade Manager>.

IPVgate is usually connected to the LAN on which the PC resides. The following procedure describes how to connect the IPVgate VoIP CPEs to the PC.
To connect the device to a PC:
1. Connect a network cross cable (Note: from HW version 4.0 use a regular cable) from the device LAN interface to the PC.
If you install IPVgate/*/ETH, connect a standard network cable from the WAN interface to your global network Hub.
If you install PVgate*/ADSL (a purchase option), connect a standard telephone cable (RG11) from the IPVGate to a DSLAM.
2. Open the Quick Install page (192.168.0.1).
