AltiGen IP Phone Service

AltiGen IP Phone Service is installed together with AltiServ, runs on the same system as AltiServ, and connects to AltiServ through enhanced AltiLink+ protocol on behalf of Alti-IP 600 phones. This service must be running for the Alti-IP 600 to operate. If IP Phone Service stops while the Alti-IP 600 is on a call, the call will be disconnected.

Plug and Play Feature

The Alti-IP 600 supports a plug and play feature when running AltiWare. When the phone is first booted up, this feature will enable the phone to automatically register itself to AltiServ, instead of having to program the phone manually. Refer to “Configuring Startup Network Settings” on page 12 for requirements and setup.

Note: The Plug and Play feature requires AltiGateKeeper Discovery and a single gatekeeper on the LAN.

Basic Mode

The Alti-IP 600 operates in Basic mode if it fails to register with AltiWare during the startup mode. When in basic mode, the IP Phone’s LCD display shows “(BASIC) IDLE”. No AltiWare switching features are available in this operating mode. However, the phone user can enter a destination IP address followed by #, and make an outgoing call through the IP network to reach AltiWare or another Alti-IP 600 phone. Also, the IP phone can accept incoming calls originating from AltiWare or another Alti-IP 600 phone.

Normal Operation

In normal operating mode, the Alti-IP 600 should have been registered with the phone server and logged in as an extension. The time and extension appear in the LCD screen and all phone features are enabled.

Note: To make the Alti-IP 600 work in normal operating mode, open the firewall port 10032 for the phone server. Refer to the AltiWare OE/ ACC System Installation & Administration Manual or ACM System Administration Manual for information on other firewall ports for H.323.
