• A gateway port is a shared resource used to connect IP phones to system ports (stations, lines, voice mail, MOH, etc.). Gateway ports are provided by the VOIPDB. You can only install one VOIPDB per system. • An IP phone to IP phone connection currently requires a gateway port for each phone. Peer to peer IP capability doesn’t require gateway ports and will be provided in a future release. • The VOIPDB comes with 4 ports. License upgrades are available in 4-port increments. A maximum of 16 ports can be licensed on one VOIPDB. The 4-port upgrades are available by software licensing. The DSX-40 supports up to eight gateway ports, regardless of the number licensed. DSX-80/160 supports all 16 gateway ports. Click here for more on the available licenses.
