Page 48: First Time Set Up
Administration Manual (H.323 Version) First Time Set up The Mediatrix 1124 default MIB parameters are set so that the unit can be directly plugged into a network and provisioned with a DHCP server. It is strongly recommended to set your DHCP server before installing the unit on the network.
Page 49: Led Behaviour In Starting Mode
Chapter 2 - Installation Administration Manual (H.323 Version) LED Behaviour When the Mediatrix 1124 starts and it is not configured to use a DHCP in Starting server, it uses static IP addresses. If the static information is not valid, Mode the Power and Ready LEDs blink at 1 Hz with 75% duty cycle.

Page 55: Ip Address And Network Configuration
This chapter also refers to the MIB structure of the configuration variables. Refer to the MIB Reference Manual for more details. Network Management When managing a Mediatrix 1124 over the network, it must be properly configured with an IP address and subnet mask. IP Addresses To operate correctly, each unit on a network must have a unique IP address.
Page 56: Ip Addresses
IP addresses for the Syslog daemon are located in the syslogMIB. However, when viewing the MIB structure in a MIB browser such as the Mediatrix’s Unit Manager Network, the IP addresses are grouped in two distinct folders for easy management.

The Mediatrix 1124 can receive numerous information from the DHCP server, including the vendor or site specific information. Note that the Mediatrix 1124 does not make a DHCP request in the following cases: If all MIB variables xxSelectConfigSource are set to static at start-up.
Page 59: Local Host
Using static IP addresses allows you to bypass the DHCP server or still be able to use the Mediatrix 1124 if you are not running a DHCP server. In this case, having one or more configuration source variable set to DHCP will slow down the restart process.

The secondary image server is up and running well. In this case, the Mediatrix 1124 tries to contact the primary image server. As it is not available, the Mediatrix 1124 retries for two minutes. It contacts the secondary server after that period and starts the software download.

If the software download also fails with the secondary software server, the Mediatrix 1124 idles for one minute. After this one minute, the Mediatrix 1124 tries to initiate the software download again. If the software download fails again with the primary and secondary software servers, the Mediatrix 1124 idles for two minutes before trying to initiate the software download.

Page 140 In some cases, fax communications may fail due to a longer capability processing time. Receiving Voice Capabilities The following describes how the Mediatrix 1124 behaves when it receives a fastStart element and a terminalCapabilitySet message. Receiving a fastStart Element The Mediatrix 1124 follows the order of the OpenLogicalChannel structures offered in the fastStart element.

Page 142 In these cases, the H.245 procedures are used to exchange capabilities and open the media stream. Receiving a terminalCapabilitySet Message The Mediatrix 1124 follows the order of the AudioCapability structures offered in the terminalCapabilitySet message. The capability described in the first AudioCapability structure has a higher priority than the capability described in the second AudioCapability structure, and so The terminalCapabilitySet message is a H.245 message.
Page 143 In these examples, if the endpoint is the master, it selects g711Alaw64k. If the endpoint is the slave, it selects g7231. Mediatrix 1124...
Page 144 Fast Connect If Fast Connect is enabled (see “Fast Connect” on page 149 details), the Mediatrix 1124 sends its capabilities twice: Once in the fastStart element of the SETUP message.

T.38 Fax The Mediatrix 1124 can send faxes in T.38 mode over UDP. T.38 is used for fax if both units are T.38 capable; otherwise, transmission in clear channel over G.711 as defined is used (if G.711 µ-law and/or G.711 A-law are enabled).

You can compensate with the user gain if there is no available configuration for the country in which the Mediatrix 1124 is located. Since the user gain is in dB, you can easily adjust the loss plan (e.g.: if you need an additional 1 dB for analog to digital, just put 1 for user gain input).
