  1. From the Windows Start menu, navigate to Dialogic Brooktrout TR1034 Drivers and open the Brooktrout Configuration Tool.

  2. The Configure IP Stack window is displayed when you launch the configuration tool for the first time.
    Select the protocol supported by your device.

  5. In the Ethernet/IP Port tab:

    • Select the appropriate IP Call Control Module (SIP or H.323).

    • Enter the IP Address of the card.
      Note: The Brooktrout FoIP card needs to have a dedicated IP address (different from the IP of the server hosting the card).

    • Enter the IP Netmask.

  6. Configure the IP Parameters.

    •  If you are using SIP, navigate to IP Call Control Modules > SIP > IP Parameters.

      • In the sip_Contact field, enter the IP and port of the workstation hosting the Brooktrout Card.

      • In the sip_default_gateway field, enter the IP of the server acting as a router.
        Note: In both cases, you should use the port 5060.
