    The 3010 models use E1 lines, usually of the ISDN Primary Rate Interface type (ISDN-PRI). When expansion is needed, your MVP2410/3010 can be field-upgraded into a dual unit by installing the MVP24- 48 or 30-60 kit, which is essentially a second MultiVOIP motherboard that fits in an open expansion-card slot. The upgraded dual unit then accommodates two T1/E1 lines.

    FTP Server File Transfers (“Downloads”) Multi-Tech has built an FTP server into the MultiVOIP unit. Therefore, file transfers from the controller PC to the VOIP unit can be done using an FTP client program or even using a browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Netscape, or Firefox, used in conjunction with Windows Explorer).
  • Page 110 (the transfers may occur serially however). Although Multi-Tech does not provide an FTP client program with the MultiVOIP software or endorse any particular FTP client program, we remind our readers that adequate FTP programs are readily available under retail, shareware and freeware licenses.

  • Page 117: Syslog Server Functions

    Chapter 6: Using the Software SysLog Server Functions Multi-Tech has built SysLog server functionality into the software of the MultiVOIP units. SysLog is a de facto standard for logging events in network communication systems. The SysLog Server resides in the MultiVOIP unit itself. To implement this functionality, you will need a SysLog client program (sometimes referred to as a “daemon”).

    To install an expansion card into an MVP2410 or MVP3010, you must: 1. Power down and unplug the MVP2410/3010 unit. 2. Using a Phillips or star-bit screwdriver, remove the blank plate at the rear of the MVP2410/3010 chassis (see Figure C-1). Save the screw.
  • Page 122 6. Secure the vertical plate of the expansion card to the chassis with a screw. Operation The MVP2410/3010 front panel has two sets of identical LEDs. In the MVP2410/3010 without an expansion card, only the left-hand set of LEDs is functional. However, when the MultiVOIP unit has been upgraded with an MVP24-48 or MVP30-60 expansion card, the right-hand set of LEDs will also become active.
