Problem Details

When we install the Linux AP platform on the innovaphone IPXX10 Gateway, the webdav folder it's hosted in the Linux AP and for that reason it's no longer possible to use the loopback IP address (127.0.0.1) when setting the URL on the innovaphone PBX objects for the announcements,voicemail scripts,etc. Instead it's necessary to set the IP address of the Linux AP to reach the webdav folder.

In a Master-Standby scenario for redundancy were Linux AP it's installed on both Master and Standby Gateway it's necessary to set an URL on the PBX Objects that works in both Gateways so when the Master fails the Standby still plays the announcements correctly for example.

The Voicemail Object contains backup URL, what solve the problem by setting the Standby Linux AP IP address in the backup URL however the Waiting Queue Object,Message Waiting Object, Boolean Object don't contain any Backup URL option.

So it's necessary that when Standby replaces Master PBX, the Stanby PBX it's able to reach the Webdav folder of Standby Linux AP using the same PBX Objects.

Resolution

Use the following command sequence (using e.g. http://x.x.x.x/!cmd):

config clear
config write
vars del
mod cmd FLASHMAN0 reset data erase
ireset
