Ip Phone 2007 Xas/Gxas Mode Impact On Licensing - Nortel 1000 Release Note

IP Phone 2007 XAS/GXAS Mode Impact on Licensing

For IP Phones 1120E, 1140E, and 2007, licenses are specific to the IP
•
Phone 2007. When you purchase licenses for your IP phones, you must
indicate the total number of IP Phones 1120E/1140E/2007 to be
licensed.
For example, if you have 500 of the IP Phone 2004, 300 of the IP Phone
2001, and 100 of the IP Phone 2007, you must purchase a total of 900
licenses and indicate that 100 of the licenses are for IP Phone 2007. 800
of those licenses are available to the non IP Phone 2007 and 100 of
those licenses are available only to the IP Phone 2007.
Citrix plans to change IP Phone 2007 licensing so that the IP Phone
2007 is not distinguished from the other phones for licensing.
The IP Phone 2007 has two operating modes:
XAS (text-only user interface)
•
When the IP Phone 2007 is configured for XAS mode, the Application
Gateway interacts with the phone as if it were a Phase 2 IP Phone 2004.
An IP Phone 2007 in XAS mode has access to all Voice Office and
transformed applications.
GXAS (graphical user interface; preferred configuration)
•
When the IP Phone 2007 is configured for GXAS mode, the
Application Gateway delivers supported applications using a
graphical interface. Applications currently supported for the IP Phone
2007 are Express Directory, Visual Voicemail, Zone Paging, and
transformed applications.
Changing the configuration of an IP Phone 2007 from XAS to GXAS mode
has the following impact on licensing:
(756) If an IP Phone 2007 in XAS mode connects to the Application
•
Gateway and then is changed to GXAS mode and reconnects to the
Application Gateway, the phone will occupy two licenses. The phone
will appear twice in the License Monitor and in the list of available
extensions for paging zones.
To free one of the licenses occupied by the phone, use the License
Monitor to change the extension's status to denied.
To open the License Monitor, go to the Operation > Advanced
–
page and log in when prompted.
To change the license status of an extension, right-click the
–
extension and choose Toggle Status.
