More Information
Problem Details
Upgrade and Downgrade
The upgrading and downgraing procedure for firmware is according to V7 as described in Howto:Firmware_Upgrade_V6_V7.
Configuration Changes
PBX Object
The Object type for a physical PBX is changed from Node Object to PBX Object. So now it exists a Node Object (for the numbering node Tree ) and a PBX Object (for the PBX Tree).
The Ldap Qiuckdial Object is merged with the Directory Search Object, see Reference8:Administration/PBX/Objects/LDAP Quickdial
Phone Display
Please be in mind that the complete Phone ringing display for all innovaphone IP Phones (including the IP72) with V8 changes, see Reference8:Phone_Ringing_Screen.
Known Problems
H323 EFC encoding changed
- Starting with V8 H323 EFC encoding is changed as described in the bug note Support:DVL-Hotfixes#coding_of_H.323_EFC_wrong. It results in not ringing V6,V7 phones, if called by V8 PBX.
Solution: Pre-V8 devices must be updated to recent V6 or V7 version, to be compatible to V8.
In case no update to recent V6 or V7 is possible, following configuration change must be done on the pre-V7 device:
config change H323 /fix 1
IP phones have smaller local phone-book capacity
Due to the increased firmware size there is less memory left for the local in-core phone-book on the phones. It is thus limited to 500 entries and will be truncated during upgrade. This should not normally create a problem.
There is an option to run larger local phone-books on a n IP phone. For this, you need to specify the /max xxx option for the FLASHDIR0 module with a value larger than 500 for xxx (e.g. config add FLASHDIR0 /max 2048). Please note that you need to either add this option before you upgrade to V8 or you will need to restore the phone-book from a backup after the upgrade (as during upgrade the extraneous entries will be deleted).
This option is merely for migration purposes and its usage is not recommended. It will consume extra runtime memory and may cause problems later on during normal operation.
Phone Directories
- Note when upgrading phones to V8 HF1, V8 directories having been disabled in V7 may be come up enabled in V8, will be fixed at V8 HF2
End of life
Due to memory limitations there is no V8 software for the IP3000 and IP3000DD
Also please note that there is no V8 support for IP600, IP1500, IP21, IP400, IP202 and IP200 (the old one, not IP200A, see label on the back).
