New in this release

With H.323 Release 6.4, the following features have been introduced:
• New media quality indication on the top line of the phone for the following conditions:
- Call uses wide band codecs
- Phone detects poor network quality which impacts audio quality.
• Added support for French on-screen keyboard. This feature is enabled when French locale is
configured.
• Addition of missed calls to call log for calls received when phone is offline. With this feature
enabled, after a user logs in, the user is able to see call history even for up to 10 calls that the
phone received after the user logged out. The phone call log can be synchronized with the call
log of a Avaya one-x communicator (H323). This feature requires administration on
Communication Manager.
• Support for the new global (Icons Only) version of the 9611 phone.
• Added support for Service Level Agreement (SLA) monitor. This feature requires the
installation of the Avaya Diagnostic Server (ADS).
• Support for querying the phone Hardware revision through SNMP.
• IDLEFEATURES parameter settings now saved in a non-volatile memory thus retaining the
information after power down or reboot.
• SSH remote debug capability has been extended and includes now a wider commands set. In
addition, there is a new option in the phone's DEBUG menu to enable the SSH on the fly,
without performing a reboot. Note: This works only when the value of SSH_ALLOWED
parameter is set to 2 in the 46xxsettings file.
• Added a new soft keys layout that can be configured in the settings file by setting the existing
parameter AGTACTIVESK to a value of 3. The soft keys would be labeled as an active call in a
-call center environment from left to right: Hold, Conf, Transfer, Drop.
• Addition of the following new parameters:
- CALL_LOG_JOURNAL -To trigger restore of offline call log journal
- PHNSCRCOLUMNS - To set column width for phone
- QLEVEL_MIN - To specify the minimum quality level below which the LNQ icon is not
displayed.
