Cisco ATA191-MPP (SkyeFax)

Overview

The Cisco ATA191-MPP is the sequel to the now-deprecated Cisco SPA 112. Please note - this guide is only for use with our SkyeFax service. Do not follow this guide if you need to use your ATA for Voice Calls.

Provisioning The ATA

Update Firmware

Prior to deploying the ATA, make sure you are on the most up-to-date firmware. We made a direct download link for you here: https://software.cisco.com/download/home/286320022/type/282074215/release/11.1.0%20MSR4

Once you have downloaded the file, head over to Administration -> Firmware upgrade and perform a firmware update.

The ATA will reboot a few times and will not be available for about 5-10 minutes. Once that completes, you can configure the ATA.

Configuring The ATA

The Cisco ATA has quite a few settings that need to be updated for production use. The fastest way to configure them is to simply input our pre-configured config file. This will autoconfigure the ATA for you and you'll be off to the races. 

To do this, navigate to Voice -> Provisioning, and input the following Profile Rule:

(Please make sure you use http and not https. The Cisco's do not support modern HTTPS encryption)

Then click Submit. The ATA will reboot and be unavailable for a few minutes while it auto-configures.

Registering the ATA

To Register the ATA after it has been provisioned, head over to Voice -> Line 1. Scroll down until you see the "Subscriber Information" section:
