# Enabling VoIP Bonding

#### ***Applies to version(s): v2.7.***

1- Access the telecom baseboard of the Tmedia unit:

> a. For TMG800 and TMG3200, access the unit using SSH, then connect to the telecom baseboard using telnet. telnet 172.31.1.1 b. For other platforms, such as TMP800, TMP6400 and TMG7800, connect to the telecom baseboard directly using telnet and the eth0 IP address. telnet 10.3.2.21

2- In the baseboard prompt, use the set\_voip0bonding shell command to enable VoIP Bonding. set\_voip0bonding <0|1> \[IP\_To\_Ping] \[Ping\_Timeout] \[Retries]

> Where: `<0|1>` selects if the feature is enabled (1 to enable). When the feature is enabled, the Ethernet PHY states are polled periodically to discover which port is available. `[IP_To_Ping]` is the IP address to send ICMP echo requests to verify if a logical path is available. When no response is received within the requested timeout after the specified number of retries, the port is considered temporarly unusable and the other VoIP port is used instead. `[Ping_Timeout]` is the ICMP echo request timeout in milliseconds `[Retries]` is the number of ICMP echo request retries to send before doing a switchover. Examples: `set_voip0bonding 1` `set_voip0bonding 1 10.3.10.187 1000 1` `set_voip0bonding 1 123.45.67.89 2500 3`

3- Reboot the unit (note: this causes downtime). reboot

4- (optional) After the reboot, access the telecom baseboard again and verify that the VoIP Bonding was successfully enabled: print\_bonding

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://prosbcdocs.telcobridges.com/tmedia-documentation/configuration/enabling-voip-bonding.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
