IP Routing Software: Under very special circumstances, an IP address from the IP address pool could be assigned to two different devices. If a device calls in with a static address that is within the WAN interface’s subnet, and then the DHCP proxy client is enabled in manage mode and receives addresses in the same range as the one in use by the currently connected device, another device could connect and request an address from the IP address pool and receive the one which is in use by...

    H0 Calls: H0 Calls are not supported on NET5 switches. Solution: The initial configuration to enable H0 calls for users must be done in CFGEDIT. Subsequent changes may be made in either Manage Mode or CFGEDIT. Any other problems than those listed above should be reported to our Technical Support Staff. See section titled Global Call Support for contact information.
