Hello all,
Happy Memorial Day Long Weekend!
It's been some time since I've sold or installed an IP Office. It still remains on of my favourites (I go back to the first release and it was barely brand new). I just had two quick questions. I did look at Avaya.com, but I didn't see anything there specifically to what I'm wondering.
1) Does Avaya still produce/manufacture any TDM-based phones? I'm thinking the 1400-series was Avaya's final series of TDM-based phones...???
2) I believe the most current version of IP Office maybe 12.1?? At around version 8 or 9 (I think 9?), Avaya made the statement in their guides and manuals that they were no longer "supporting" the 6400-series of phones (which before IP Office were Definity-based phones - another great PBX). I put the word "support' in quotes because Avaya still allowed you to use them and program them if you wanted to, but they wouldn't support them (so don't call for help) and new new fixes/patches would be offered for the 6400-series. With that said, you could still add them to your system and when you saved the configuration you got a warning that there are unsupported sets within the configuration. But that's as far as it went. Is there anything in 10.x or 11.x or 12.1 that would indicate they have completely removed them from support to the point you can't even program them any more on a digital port (on the main chassis or the station expansion modules)???
Thanks so much everyone!
