Known Limitations and Workarounds

Following are known limitations and workarounds that you should consider while managing your gateway connec-

tions.

Analog connections were validated and certified against firmware version 6.60A.265.010. Using other

firmware versions could result in a loss of dial tone.

If you power up an MP-118 gateway while it is not connected to the network, then you later attach the

network connection or uplink switch, some of the channels may not be able to register.
For this reason, you should make sure that all network cables and uplink switches are connected before

you turn on your gateway.

On an MP-118 device with a Level 3 uplink switch (such as Dell), it can take up to a full minute before

the switch provides the network connection to the gateway. This delay is due to certain spanning tree

settings on the switch, and may cause some channels not to register during the boot sequence.
To avoid such problems, AltiGen recommends that you insert a regular switch between the Level 3

switch and the MP-118 gateway.

If your network is not stable, the instability may cause some of the channels on the MP-124 to not regis-

ter after a network outage.
