Assigning A Name Or Brief Description To A Port; Releasing An Analog Channel; Replacing Modules - AudioCodes Mediant 1000 User Manual

5.14.7 Assigning a Name or Brief Description to a Port

The Home page allows you to assign an arbitrary name or brief description to the
gateway's ports. This description appears as a tooltip when you move your mouse over the
specific port.
To add a port description, take these 4 steps:
1. Open the Home page by clicking the Home icon.
2. Click the required port icon; a shortcut menu appears.
3. From the shortcut menu, choose Update Port Info; a text box appears.
4. Type a brief description for the port, and then click Apply Port Info.

5.14.8 Releasing an Analog Channel

The Home page allows you to inactivate (release) an FXO or FXS analog channel. This is
sometimes useful in scenarios, for example, when the gateway (FXO) is connected to a
PBX and the communication between the two can't be disconnected (e.g., when using
reverse polarity).
To release a channel, take these 2 steps:
1. Open the Home page by clicking the Home icon.
2. Click the required FXS or FXO port, and then from the shortcut menu, choose
Release Channel; the channel is changed to inactive.

5.14.9 Replacing Modules

To replace modules (i.e., digital, FXO, and FXS), you must use the gateway's embedded
Web server in combination with the physical removal and insertion of the modules. When
you replace a module, you first need to 'remove' it in the Home page, then extract it
physically from the chassis and physically insert a new module, and then 'insert' it in the
Home page.
