AlphaCom 10.xx - Release Notes
From Zenitel Wiki
Software in production: AMC 10.20<br\> Software released date: 2007-04-12<br\> Note 1: We sometimes do bug fixes in older versions while working with a new version. You can’t read the list version by version, and always assume that a correction is included in the next. Be aware of high release numbers, e.g. 06.05 vs. 07.01. Check version dates, and also comments for each version. <br\> Note 2: For each software version the NVRAM version is listed. If the NVRAM version is different, the AMC board must be cold started, and then you must do a SendAll from AlphaPro to restore the configuration.<br\><br\><br\>

See separate documentation.<br\>
IP audio transit capacity is increased from 32 to 64 channels. Transit audio is audio not going trough the backplane. (SIP to SIP, IP station to IP station, AlphaNet IP transit or a combination of IP audio)<br\>
AlphaWeb – AlphaNet information<br\> Information page now contains node name and node software versions.<br\><br\>
Errors Corrected
Issue 2885: Log enabling:<br\> System log to Syslog is now working even when log port is not enabled in AlphaPro.<br\>
Issue 2935: SIP Softphone ExpressTalk causes AMC reset:<br\> SIP Softphone ExpressTalk would reset the exchange when the conversation is cancelled from the phone (both incoming and outgoing calls). <br\>
Issue 3053: Conversation Outgoing event:<br\> When making a call from intercom out on a SIP gateway (Mediatrix 2400) the event Conversation Outgoing is now triggered when the phone answers.<br\>
Issue 3154: $CALL in AlphaNet don't work:<br\> The data protocol command $CALL is now working in AlphaNet.<br\>
Issue 3169: Serial communication block AMCD:<br\> AMC would not start after power reset if serial communication was active during reset. (Other node sending data to resetting AMC) This will not happen on system running Linux 2.4. <br\>
Issue 3180: Program 7 has no display txt:<br\> Audio program 7 (feat 5/7): The display text was not shown in the display when activating the audio program 7. For other programs it is ok. (I have seen this long time ago also, so it might be an old bug). Static License of 2 AlphaNet audio links does not work correctly. Only one audio link was working. Problems with SIP and Codec Selection <br\> SIP Preferred codec selection configured in AlphaPro does now also filter on incoming audio stream. This cure some problems regarding codec mismatch between AlphaCom and SIP.<br\> <br\> <br\> <br\>
AMC 10.05 (2007-02-07)
Release: Official, available on request /opt/amc/bin/amcd NVRAM version 10.00.
System upgrade file:<br\> alpha_sys_10_05.tbz2<br\>
Precautions:<br\> alpha_sys_10_00.tbz2 must be installed.<br\><br\>
Functional changes / Enhancement
License keys:<br\> SIP trunk and SIP stations is now separated in two different licenses.<br\> SIP trunk and AlphaNet licenses is by default dynamic except for the 2 line AlphaNet license that still is static.<br\> No audio routing programming is needed for SIP trunk or AlphaNet IP (except for 2 licenses).<br\> AlphaNet and Multi Module IP use dynamic licenses from the same license pool.<br\> If static routing is programmed in AlphaPro licenses for those audio lines is reserved from the license pool and can not be used for other dynamic audio links/multi module.<br\> Priority of audio resources allocation is handled by the priority of the initiator station.<br\><br\>
Errors Corrected
Issue 2715: AlphaNet Duplex in combination with AMC 8/9:<br\> In combination AlphaNet with AlphaCom 8 and 9 and exchanges via IP there will be a problem with delay adjustment of the duplex algorithm when calls are made from IP to an AMC 8/9 exchange.<br\> The duplex algorithm is now run in A node when going from an ASLT station to IP AlphaNet thus avoiding duplex in end AMC 8/9 nodes. <br\> In transit systems with certain combinations of AMC- 8/9/IP, SIP, AGA, AE1 and Multi module IP some issues could still occur that needs special configuration. (See separate duplex document). <br\>
Issue 2887/3113: SIP automatic duplex switching:<br\> When calling SIP there can be problems with the standard duplex algorithm due to DSP echo cancelling in the SIP station. A new duplex algorithm is available for duplex towards SIP stations that is speech controlled only from volume of the microphone signal from the SIP link.<br\> (exchange flag “DSP_duplex = 1”) <br\>
Issue 2897: X-lite on-hold lockup:<br\> Problems during on-hold feature in X-lite fixed.<br\>
Issue 2908: SIP-Ringing if call cancelled before answer:<br\> Calling from AMC-station to SIP phone. If C-key is pressed on AlphaCom-station before the call is answered, the SIP phone keeps ringing if calling via a transit node. <br\>
Issue 2960/3119: SIP-Handy-Tone 488 making All Call.(* and # key):<br\> SIP now handles * and # for both Grandstream and Mediatrix.<br\>
Issue 3011: Duplex switching in mixed environment:<br\> When the audio path go transit from IP to analog/E1 delay information to the automatic duplex routine is lost. Duplex delay is now forwarder/backwarded from transit AGA to IP links to the duplex node.<br\>
Issue 3012: Echo in SIP handset:<br\> When talking with handset conversation between Intergard station and SIP station the SIP station will get echo in the handset due to overhearing in AlphaCom handset (and no echo cancelling). Handset to handset communication will now be forced in duplex. (Default delay setting for SIP = 30ms. Full duplex can be obtained if parameter “max_off_hook_delay” is adjusted to 40 ms or more)<br\>
Issue 3015: AlphaNet: No Camp On Busy:<br\> There is no "camp on busy" when all AlphaNet lines are in use. Instead one gets a rejection tone. Same behaviour with AGA line, AE1 and VoIP. Feature implemented.<br\>
Issue 3017: Name list:<br\> After AMC auto load dirno's 9542 - 9545 are in the name list (614).<br\>
Issue 3034: Time management:<br\> When changing time in AlphaWeb, the new time is now also written to the hardware clock.<br\>
Issue 3051: IP address with leading 0's:<br\> Interpretation of leading 0 in AlphaWeb is fixed. <br\>
Issue 3067: AlphaWeb: Same subnet on Eth0 and 1:<br\> Configuration of both Ethernet phys on the same sub net is now tested.<br\>
Issue 3070: SIP: Long phone no on DAK/Substation:<br\> Up to 16 digit phone number now allowed in DAK "784" and Call-forward "71".<br\>
Issue 3116: AMC: Speech channel locks up:<br\> During global conference and failed SIP calls speech channels could be locked up.<br\>
Issue 3143: AMC: 99 answer in global group call:<br\> Not possible to answer global group calls from other that initiating node. This feature is fixed.<br\>
Issue 3060: SIP & AlphaNet licenses:<br\> It is now possible to install 30 AlphaNet and 20 SIP trunk licenses. <br\>
Issue 3069: SIP: Phone number in display:<br\> For outgoing/incoming calls the number of shown digits is 16 (including event handler).<br\>
Issue 3087: SIP: Mediatrix 1204 - Dial Out:<br\> Transmit digit by digit as dialled now supports:
- - Programming of phone number on DAK from AlphaPro
- - DAK, "784" from station
- - Call forwarding from station "71"
Both for Mediatrix and AudioCodes<br\>
Issue 3105: SIP Trunk: DAK call fails (AudioCodes):<br\> The first or the two first DTMF digits of the phone number is not transmitted. 400 ms delay before sending digits. Delay can be extended with exchange timeout "sip_dial_dly".<br\>
Issue 3107: SIP Trunk: Call Forward (71):<br\> Manual transfer to phone using 71 don't work (PNCI you could 71 + 0 + phone + M, or 71 + <shortnumber>). Fixed<br\>
Issue 3136: AlphaNet: Global SX Conference:<br\> AlphaNet: Global SX Conference. Problems after node reset and issues of reconnect are fixed.<br\>
Issue 3141: Call to unregistered SIP stations:<br\> Call from AlphaCom to a SIP phone, SIP phone is configured at registrar node, but the phone is not registered: Then SIP sends the INVITE to its own IP address, which is processed, and forwarded in a loop until all RTP resources are used up. IP address check implemented.<br\>
Issue 3156: AlphaWeb show no licence:<br\> AMC now generate correct infor in the license info file.<br\> <br\> <br\> <br\>
