This customer has been doing this prior to implementing the new IPs. The new subnet is for NJ, so I’ve submitted tickets to get that adjusted. Hopefully that happens soon. For some reason nobody on my new subnet can load ksl.com either. That seems to be the only url to have this issue so far.

This is kinda moot to me since ePMP can't do ICC like Canopy. So we have to pre-config ePMP SMs anyway (so that our WPA key matches for registration), so we might as well set the cnMaestro URL while we're at it. Maybe it's useful in case you want to change the URL or something I guess. The

It's in the User Guide. You can use option 43, or if you set a domain via option 15 (the "Domain" field in Mikrotik DHCP) then it tries "cnmaestro.domain" My problem turned out to be that if you've already set a URL for CnMaestro then it won't use the DHCP provided option. But in theory, if

At a customer, I just hooked up a Cisco SPA122 into an Ancient Lucent PBX system. The customer says that caller ID is not coming through, but it used to work with his old AT Lines, and it appears to be hitting the ATA Properly. Is there a setting on the ATA that needs to be set that older
