Sangoma unveils SNAP tool


Feb 11, 2013 (Datamonitor via COMTEX) -- Sangoma Technologies Corporation, a provider of hardware and software components that enable or enhance IP Communications Systems for both voice and data, has announced the availability of the Sangoma Network Appliance Provisioning, or SNAP, Tool.



"The SNAP Tool makes it easy for service providers and their channel partners to deliver all of the advantages of SIP trunking to businesses that want to continue using existing TDM-based phone systems," said Jeff Dworkin, director of marketing for Sangoma. "A number of regional and national SIP trunking providers have already taken advantage of the SNAP Tool to help ensure fast and efficient turn-up of new customers on their SIP networks." According to the company, the SNAP Tool guides the user through a simple process to select the appropriate service provider, Vega gateway model, and configuration using the service provider's product nomenclature. Depending on the provider's requirements, the user then enters between three and six credentials, and the tool returns a configuration file that can be uploaded to the Vega gateway.

The SNAP Tool currently supports the full Vega Gateway Series and will be expanded to support the provisioning of Sangoma's recently announced line of Session Border Controllers. Gateway configuration files can be pre-loaded by the service provider to support self-installation options, or can be generated in the field with a minimum of effort or training, the company said.


"Each service provider determines the mix of analog and digital interfaces in the gateway, and collaborates with Sangoma to create a configuration file that is fine-tuned to work on the network," continued Dworkin. "We expect that the simple operation and assured network interoperability possible with the SNAP Tool will save time and money for service providers and their channel partners by dramatically reducing installation and troubleshooting efforts." http://www.datamonitor.com Republication or redistribution, including by framing or similar means, is expressly prohibited without prior written consent.
