No New features IMPROVEMENTS in R1.8.2: · This release is to support manufacturability of the product. Once this firmware is installed, downgrades to prior releases will be blocked. Phones shipping from the factory will begin to utilize this firmware as of 7/04. KNOWN ISSUES in R1.8.2: . Must use TN230AP Media Processor(Prowler) V35, V46 or later, otherwise one way talk paths will occur. · This release supports Network Address Translation (NAT) on Communication Manager 1.0 or later. Direct IP Telephone to IP Telephone calls behind NAT (aka NAT shuffling) requires Avaya Communication Manager 1.3 (CM 1.3). If you use NAT on a version of CM prior to 1.3, you must set the option "Direct IP-IP Audio Connections" to No on the ACM station form for the IP Telephone behind the NAT device. If you upgrade to CM1.3 make sure this option is set to Yes so you can take advantage of direct IP-IP Audio connections behind the NAT device. See Communication Manager documentation, available for download at support.avaya.com for more details. · Undefined DHCP/TFTP variables are not initialized with manually defined values. . If a parameter set via a script file contains a comma, the parameter value will be truncated in the phone at the comma. For example, if the command SET TFTPDIR "Testb,19" is issued, TFTPDIR will be set to "Testb" in the phone. Note however that comma separated lists of IP addresses are processed correctly. . If an IP Address of 0.0.0.0 appears in a list of IP addresses, this zero address will be treated as a list terminator and addresses following 0.0.0.0 in the list will be ignored. · Media encryption is supported only on R1.8 and later releases. KNOWN ISSUES IN R1.8.2 SNMP MIB: General: · IP addresses may sometimes be listed in dotted-decimal format even if the values were specified in DNS format.
