VoIP Gateway Self-Testing
The VoIP Gateway features two self-testing modes: rapid and detailed.
Rapid self-test mode
Rapid self-test mode is run each time the VoIP Gateway completes the initialization process. This
is a short test phase in which the only errors detected and reported are failures in initializing
hardware components. All Status and Error reports in this self-test phase are reported through the
Network Interface ports, as well as indicated by the LED Status Indicators.
Detailed self-test mode
Detailed self-test mode is run when initialization of the VoIP Gateway is completed and if the
configuration parameter EnableDiagnostics is set to 1. In this mode, the VoIP Gateway tests all of
the hardware components (memory, DSP, etc.), outputs the status of the test results, and ends the
test. To enable the Detailed self-test mode:
1
Retrieve the INI file from the VoIP Gateway.
2 Change the EnableDiagnostics parameter to 1.
3 Load the INI file onto the VoIP Gateway.
4 Restart the VoIP Gateway.
The VoIP Gateway does not process calls while in Detailed self-test mode. When you are finished
running the detailed test, you must disable the Detailed self-test mode. To disable the Detailed
self-test mode:
1 Retrieve the INI file from the VoIP Gateway.
2
Change the EnableDiagnostics parameter to 0.
3 Load the INI file onto the VoIP Gateway.
4
Restart the VoIP Gateway.
