6.2 How to Connect Blades with a FlexGate Using Blade-Link
In this example we are connecting a FlexGate to an 8-port Blade. The IP Address of the 8-port Blade is
192.168.50.64 and the IP Address of the FlexGate 192.168.50.82. The FlexGate needs to be the
dedicated server for the Blade-Link. It is assumed that the user configuring this type of Blade-Link has
knowledge of how the FlexGate already works and has the FlexGate setup. If not, please refer to the
Raven FlexGate Comprehensive Guide in the manual section first. *
The blade-link will not show up
under the VoIP
’s
interface
webpage as a “Remote Blade”. It also will not show up under a selection
when configuring the individual ports under
“Blade Setup”. The conference for the RTP channel
will
determine where the blade-link signaling will be directed towards*
