7f. Configure the “Survivable GK Node Name” field with the node name previously given to the
MultiVOIP in the “Node-Names IP” form.
Avaya IP phones running firmware version 2.0 or higher require CM 2.0.1 or higher to work in
survivable mode with the MultiVOIP. When these phones register with the CM, they replace the
list of gatekeepers acquired from the DHCP server (including the MultiVOIP) with a new list of
gatekeepers acquired from CM. This differs from 1.x IP phone firmware where the gatekeeper list
sent to the IP phone from CM was appended to the list of gatekeepers acquired from the DHCP
server. When using CM 2.0.1 or higher, configure the “Survivable GK Node Name” field in the
station form for the IP phone. By doing this, the MultiVOIP will be included in the list of
gatekeepers sent to the IP phone by CM.
Note: IP phone models 4610SW and 4620SW only support 2.0 or higher firmware, therefore these
phones cannot be used with the MultiVOIP unless you are using CM 2.0.1 or higher.
