Figure 1. Login Window.

The login screen is part of a "single sign on" server. With one User ID and password you will be able to access other modules if any. Select the check box if you want to be warned before logging into other sites.

Once your username and password have been authenticated, you will be directed to the Home webpage. You will see the Main Menu Bar and on the top right corner, you will see your username and the current date.

Your administrator will define your profile based on a role and permission security.

After login you will need to access the Main Menu to select what you would like to do.

Switch Setup

The following steps are required to setup a new carrier


1. Decide on the type of signaling that will be used and configure it. (Click on the links for more information on configuration, manuals etc.) 

   The following are supported:
   a) SS7 - ITU/ANSI ISUP
   b) ISDN  
   c) SIP/SIP-T

2. For E1/T1 connections, Sky Dance uses IP gateways to convert the PSTN signaling to SIP.

Skynet offers the following fully integrated gateways
For SS7 to SIP/SIP-T based on hardware from the following vendors:
a) Audiocodes Mediant series gateways (Mediant 2000 - Mediant 8000)
b) Sangoma A10x series cards.
For ISDN to SIP
a) Based on Audiocodes Mediant series gateways (Mediant 2000-Mediant 8000)
b) Sangoma A10x series based cards.

4. To configure SS7 for Audiocodes gateways, there are several steps: 

1. Physical layer configuration of the links and voice channels on the gateway  is done via the  Audiocodes element management system (EMS) or the Web GUI (M3K only).
2. Next the E1/T1 originating point code, links,  linksets and  routes must be configured via the EMS or Web GUI.
3. Then the originating point code, links,  linksets and  routes setup must be duplicated using the Sky Dance GUI.  This will allow Sky Dance to control the gateway using M3UA and MGCP. 
4. Resource groups for the voice circuits must be created in the Sky Dance GUI.
5. Finally the voice circuits must be configured and assigned to the resource group(s) just created.

5. To configure other gateways - see their respective manuals.
