Installing the Cisco VoIP Infrastructure Solution for SIP
This chapter provides an overview of how to install the components of the Cisco VoIP Infrastructure Solution for SIP. It includes the following sections:
To implement the Cisco VoIP Infrastructure Solution for SIP, you must start with a functional IP network. Then, depending on which phase of the solution (as described in Illustrated Implementation) you want to implement, you must have the following (components that are not provided as part of the solution are italicized):
Sun Netra t 1400, Netra t 1405, Netra t 1120, Netra t 1125, or E450
Solaris 2.6
Cisco Network Access Server
Cisco AS5300 Universal Access Server Router
Catalyst Switch (customer premise hardware)
In addition to the components previously listed, you should have the following installed and operational in your network:
TFTP serverTo download the SIP firmware for the SIP IP phone and update IOS images.
DHCP serverTo provide IP addresses and other parameters to the SIP IP phone.
DNS server(optional) To resolve addresses for the components, particularly the SIP IP phone.
Installing the SIP Gateway
Install your Cisco 2600 Series, 3600 Series, or AS5300 router per the instructions that accompanied the router. Ensure that the appropriate network cards are installed and that the routers are running the correct release of Cisco IOS Software.

Installing the SIP IP Phone
Use the following procedure to connect the cables to your Cisco SIP IP phone.
Step 1 Place your Cisco SIP IP phone on a flat surface with the LCD side down. On the rear of your Cisco SIP IP phone there are several jacks. Review the Figure 3-1 to determine the use of each jack.

1. RJ-11/RS-232 (This jack is not used.)
2. AC Adapter port
3. LAN-to-phone jack (This jack is labeled 10/100 SW.)
4. PC-to-phone jack (This jack is labeled 10/100 PC.)
5. Handset jack
6. Headset jack
Step 2 Plug one end of the AC adapter cord into the back of your Cisco SIP IP phone and the other end into an electrical outlet. There is an AC adapter power brick in the path.
Step 3 Plug one end of your RJ-45 LAN cable into the LAN-to-phone jack and the other end into your LAN RJ-45 port.
Step 4 Plug one end of your RJ-45 PC cable into the PC-to-phone jack and the other end into the RJ-45 port on your PC.
Step 5 Plug one end of the handset cord into the handset jack on the back of the Cisco SIP IP phone and the other end into your handset.
Step 6 If you use a headset (not supplied) plug one end of the headset cord into the headset jack on the back of the Cisco IP phone and your headset is ready for use.

Installing the SIP Proxy Server
There are two versions of the Cisco SIP Proxy Server: a version that runs on Linux and a version that runs on Solaris. Before installing the Cisco SIP Proxy Server, ensure that the Sun Sparc server or PC server platform on which the proxy server will be run is installed and connected to your network per the instructions that accompanied the system.
The following sections describe how to install the Cisco SIP Proxy Server on each platform:
There is a Cisco SIP Proxy Server software binary image and a Red Hat Package Manager (RPM) image.
To install the Cisco SIP Server Linux software, complete the following tasks:
Step 1 Mount the Cisco SIP Proxy Server CD-ROM.
Step 2 Install the Cisco SIP Proxy Server by complete the following:
a. Log in as root.
b. Change directories to the directory in which the Cisco SIP Proxy Server software images are located.
c. To decompress and install the Cisco SIP Proxy Server binary image into the /usr/local/sip directory, issue the following command:
gunzip -d -c sip-server-1.0-linux.tar.gz | tar xvfP -
To install the Cisco RPM image into the /usr/local/sip directory, issue the following command:
rpm -i sip-server-1.0-linux.i386.rpm
Step 3 Unmount the Cisco SIP Proxy Server CD-ROM.
Note For complete information about installing the Cisco SIP Proxy Server on Linux, see the CD
Installation Guide for the Cisco SIP Proxy Server on Linux.
Installing the Cisco SIP Proxy Server Solaris Software
To install the Cisco SIP Server Solaris software, complete the following tasks:
Step 1 Mount the Cisco SIP Proxy Server CD-ROM.
Step 2 Install the Cisco SIP Proxy Server by complete the following:
a. Log in as root.
b. Change directories to the directory in which the Cisco SIP Proxy Server software image is located.
c. Decompress and install the Cisco SIP Proxy Server software image into the /opt/sip directory by issuing the following command:
gunzip -d -c sip-server-1.0-solaris.tar.gz | tar xvfP -
Step 3 Unmount the Cisco SIP Proxy Server CD-ROM.
Note For complete information about installing the Cisco SIP Proxy Server on Linux, see the CD
Installation Guide for the Cisco SIP Proxy Server on Solaris.
