MiVoice Office 250 Release 6.1 SP1 New Features

This section briefly describes the new features, hardware, and enhancements available on the
MiVoice Office 250 when equipped with the v6.1 SP1 software release.

Multi-Node Video Support

MiVoice Office 250 Release 6.1 SP1 supports video calls between SIP clients connected to different
nodes. A SIP device connected to Node 1 can now make a video call to a SIP device connected to
Node 2.This is achieved by using the Peer-to-Peer (P2P) connection between two SIP endpoints
for the video calls for the endpoints connected to MiVoice Office 250.
The MiVoice Office 250 Release 6.1 SP1 supports the following features.
• Video calls between SIP clients connected to different nodes.
• Backward compatibility. A P2P video call from 6.1 SP1 node to 6.1/6.0/5.1 node is modified to
an audio call.
• SIP video devices as remote extensions via MBG.
• Video calls across the network like any other desktop device.
SIP Phone Group – Password Alarm
MiVoice Office 250 Release 6.1 SP1 provides a new System Flag.
When enabled, Alarm 149 will be generated each time a SIP Phone registers with the MiVoice Office
250, where the password used for the registration is either the same as the SIP Phone extension
number or it is left empty. The alarm is raised against the SIP phone group to which the SIP Phone
belongs. The SIP Phone will still able to register and operate, however the alarm will notify the
Administrator that security needs to be reviewed immediately for this SIP Phone Group. This alarm
will be cleared automatically by the system as soon as the SIP Phone registers again using new
credentials. This field is located in System\Flags.
Note: The Administrator must make the password secure and then clear this alarm.
This feature is enabled by default. Mitel recommends that you do not disable this feature. The Alarms
Notification Feature within System Administration and Diagnostics is used to send an email to an
administrator when a System Alarm is generated.
