The DIG-IP-S MO represents softphone and Avaya 46XX phones. The softphone has some DCP maintenance capability in the form of audits, updates, error log entries, and tests. Avaya46XX IP phones communicate to the switch via an IP LAN and emulate DCP signaling carried over TCP.
The IP telephone is not attached to a port board. Insertion of the telephone is driven by successful registration of the endpoint, not by board insertion. It is maintained via a set of explicit TCP/IP ping requests and errors reported by the User Manager software, which terminates the H.323 signaling portion of each endpoint. The MO follows standard maintenance methodology and supports test busyout release status commands.
A registered extension has a port number or ID in the form of SNNNNN, where N is a digit from 0–9. This ID indicates that the extension is a virtual port and a station.
Note:
A port number or ID of SNNNNN does not necessarily indicate that the extension is registered. A registered extension retains the SNNNNN port number or ID, even if the extension unregisters later.
