Exetel new VoIP server
Exetel new VoIP server
Dear Customer,
In order to improve our network and the reliability of our services
Exetel will be migrating all its VoIP customers to a new VoIP server. We
ask for your assistance in performing a few simple actions to ensure a
smooth migration of VoIP services.
The new VoIP server has been tested for a month in a lab environment
and is now available for all customers to test with their equipment in order
to make sure they are compatible with the new version of the sip software.
Details relating to the testing process are as follows:
IP Address Details
The VoIP server will make use of a new signaling IP address. As such, a
configuration change on your equipment will be necessary in order to
complete the test plan.
The signaling IP address of the existing VoIP server
(SIP Server/Proxy)is: 58.96.1.2
The signaling IP address of the new VoIP server
(SIP Server/Proxy) is: 58.96.1.27
** please note that you have to change all references for sip proxy/server to new ip
even sip1.exetel.com.au hostname must be replaced by new ip for testing.
Testing
You will need to complete a test plan to ensure a smooth transition from
the current VoIP server onto the new VoIP server.
You can use your existing authentication details for your test calls.
You can change the sip server/proxy ip to the new one and make test
calls to the following destinations and make sure they all connect
correctly.
* call to a mobile phone
* call to a land-line number
* call to an international destination.
* if you find any issues with making outgoing calls please let us know
the details via email,
residentialvoip@exetel.com.au - for residential customers
corpvoipsupport@exetel.com.au - for corporate customers.
** Please note that you won't be able to test incoming calls as they
will continue to come via the existing SIP server. Once you have tested
outgoing calls with the new SIP server you can change the IP back to
58.96.1.2.
** Don't use for any production/live traffic
** For security reasons the new SIP server is only available for
those who have an internet connection with Exetel.
** Once the customer testing phase is over we will be switching all
customers to the new SIP server, using existing IP addresses. You will
be notified beforehand.

I assume once it goes live this will change?** For security reasons the new SIP server is only available for

I have VOIP with Exetel, but mainly use it via my Bigpond cable connection. (which BTW - works flawlessly - ppl have even commented it's clearer than when I had an Exetel ADSL connection which goes to show it was the Optus/Exetel ADSL performance that was not quite up to scratch)

yes, ip restriction will be removed once we make this server a live.
Re: Exetel new VoIP server
Just so I'm clear, Pasan, once the production change happens the server IP will still be 58.96.1.2?

yes. You don't need to make any change from your side once server is live.Gidget wrote:Just so I'm clear, Pasan, once the production change happens the server IP will still be 58.96.1.2?
Re: Exetel new VoIP server
Just to clarify some details for you folks.
Then try using the second connection when have need to make an outbound/outgoing call to test call connectivity and quality.
Hope this clarifies some of the FAQ's
- If you're a hosted PABX customer, this does not apply to you.
- Normal charges will apply to outbound calls.

Re: Exetel new VoIP server
Hi,
I have tested the new settings on 58.96.1.27 and all three call types (mobile, landline and international), have worked fine; the other party can hear me quite clearly with no delays or dropouts.
So, is it now OK to change my settings back to 58.96.1.2 as they were before?
Thanks in advance for any and all replies!
