Enterprise Communication – Practical Activity
Practical Exercise 8
On the successful completion of the following activities, students can expect to achieve
approximately 4% from the 40% allotted for the practical exercises.
The aims of this exercise are to:
o Download and deploy a simple VoIP system, OfficeSIP
o Install this tool
o Install relevant clients
o Create users/map users to numbers
o Establish successful VoIP calls between users
o Establish VoIP calls between different server installations.
This activity should be completed ideally within appropriately configured Virtual Machines
on the I7 Computers with Room C1.2.25.
Activities 1 – 5 will be completed individually; Activity 6 will require you to join up with
another student to complete the activity.
Note that this exercise uses VMware Player as the VM Environment.
ESXi will possibly not have adequate performance for this Exercise.
o Location: http://www.officesip.com
In this activity we will investigate the technology and techniques behind Voice and Video
Communications.
We will start by viewing a selection of YouTube videos (some good, some???) to explain
basic concepts.
View the following videos below:
SIP Fundamentals: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvLwcARHFoY
SIP Trunking: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWAx0V9gicY
What is SIP Trunking?
Benefits of SIP Trunking?
VoIP Architecture: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEn7qno_XS4
Document any important concepts in your Journal.
In this activity we will acquire all the resources needed for the exercise.
Utilise one of the P7's in a CIT Lab. Note the configuration of the machine as it will
need to be restored on completion.
Download the latest release (non beta) software from the OfficeSIP site
(http://www.officesip.com )
SIP Server 3.x rc < Do not use the Beta

SIP Messenger
SIP Softphone
MUV Client
Document the steps that you followed to obtain and install your tool in your Journal.
Note that you may need this software for other subjects
In this activity we will install the OfficeSIP server and adjust security and user controls.
We will create accounts for various users.
Install OfficeSIP within a machine that you will designate as your Server
Note: This may be done on the base OS as long as the server is removed after
If installed in a VM then operate the VM in Bridged Mode Preferred
You do not have to integrate this with Active Directory Accounts at this stage
Create accounts for the following users:
Sam: Account [email protected] Password Tafe123
Sebastian: Account [email protected] Password Tafe123
Lulani: Account [email protected] Password Tafe123
Document the steps that you followed in your Journal.
use.
In this activity we will adjust user and security settings to configure the SIP Messenger to
Configure the SIP Messenger for Sam on a remote PC to your server installation.
Diagnose any connection issues.
Likewise configure the SIP Messenger for Sebastian and Lulani on a second
machine.
Test that you can send messages each user.
Document the steps that you followed in your Journal.
In this activity we will configure the SIP Voice Softphone to operate.
You will require your USB headset for this exercise.
Configure the SIP Softphone for Sam on a remote PC to your server installation.
Diagnose any connection issues.
Likewise configure the SIP Softphone for Sebastian and Lulani on a second
workstation.
Test that you can call each user and establish calls between each user.
Document the steps that you followed in your Journal.

Enterprise Communication – Practical Activity
In this Activity we will configure a router to enable connectivity between two groups.
Set up a "Forwarder" entry for your DNS server to the DNS server of the group that
you are going to join
i.e. if your group's DNS server was on 192.168.100.10 and the group that you are
joining has a DNS server on 192.168.200.10 then each machine needs to have
the other's DNS server entry as a forwarder set.
Ensure that your router has no "startup-config" scripts and that it functions properly
before starting.
Connect your switch to an Ethernet port on a router
Connect a second group's switch to the second Ethernet port on the router.
Configure the appropriate IP addresses on the router for each group.
i.e. conf term
int fa 0/0
ip address 192.168.100.10 255.255.255.0
no shutdown
Test ping your interfaces from PCs in each group
Implement RIPv2 routing
i.e. conf term
router rip
network 192.168.x.0 The network address of each
network 192.168.x.0 The network address of each
Determine that machines on one side of the router can ping machines on the other
side of the router with the ping command via both IP address and domain names.
Attempt to establish voice and messaging calls to users not on your network but
created on the other group's network.
Document the steps that you followed in your Journal.
Explain and demonstrate a fully functioning VoIP environ to your teacher
Upload your Journal Notes to Moodle for assessment.

If there are no further tasks given by the Teacher at this point then shut down your
virtual operating systems. Remember to shut down the client workstation first and
then the server operating system
*********************************************************************************************************
At the end of the practical session, please ensure that you have saved the folders of
the virtual operating systems on to your USB hard disk. Before leaving the lab room
ensure that any software installed on the base OS is removed and that your machine
has been left in a better state than you found it in.
