SIP User's Manual 10. Configuration Parameters Reference
Parameter Description
Web: Enable LAN
Watchdog
[EnableLanWatchDog]
Determines whether the LAN Watch-Dog feature is enabled.
[0] Disable = Disable LAN Watch-Dog (default).
[1] Enable = Enable LAN Watch-Dog.
When LAN Watch-Dog is enabled, the device's overall communication
integrity is checked periodically. If no communication is detected for
about three minutes, the device performs a self test:
If the self-test succeeds, the problem is a logical link down (i.e.,
Ethernet cable disconnected on the switch side) and the Busy Out
mechanism is activated if enabled (i.e., the parameter
EnableBusyOut is set to 1). Lifeline is activated only if it is enabled
(using the parameter LifeLineType).
If the self-test fails, the device restarts to overcome internal fatal
communication error.
Notes:
For this parameter to take effect, a device reset is required.
Enable LAN Watchdog is relevant only if the Ethernet connection is
full duplex.
LAN Watchdog is not applicable to MP-118.
[WatchDogStatus]
[0] = Disable device's watch dog.
[1] = Enable device's watch dog (default).
Note: For this parameter to take effect, a device reset is required.
[LifeLineType]
Defines the scenario upon which the Lifeline phone is activated. The
Lifeline phone is available on Port 1 of MP-11x FXS devices and on
ports 1 to 4 of MP-118 FXS/FXO devices. For FXS-only devices, FXS
Port 1 is connected to the POTS (Lifeline) phone as well as to the
PSTN/PBX (using a splitter cable). For combined FXS and FXO devices,
the FXS ports are provided with lifeline by their corresponding FXO ports
connected to the PSTN/PBX (i.e. FXO Port #5 provides lifeline to FXS
Port 1, FXO Port #6 provides lifeline to FXS Port 2, and so on). Upon
power outage and/or network failure, PSTN connectivity is maintained
for the FXS phone user.
[0] = Lifeline is activated upon power failure (default).
[1] = Lifeline is activated upon power failure or when the link is down
(physically disconnected).
[2] = Lifeline is activated upon power failure, when the link is down, or
upon network failure (logical link disconnected).
Notes:
For this parameter to take effect, a device reset is required.
This parameter is applicable only to FXS interfaces.
To enable Lifeline switching on network failure, the LAN watch dog
must be activated (i.e., set the parameter EnableLANWatchDog to 1).
For a detailed description on cabling the device for Lifeline, refer to
the Installation Manual.
Web: Delay After Reset
[sec]
[GWAppDelayTime]
Defines the time interval (in seconds) that the device's operation is
delayed after a reset.
The valid range is 0 to 45. The default value is 7 seconds.
Note: This feature helps overcome connection problems caused by
some LAN routers or IP configuration parameters' modifications by a
DHCP server.
