Table 9 describes items on the Hardware ID screen.
Connection history
Connection history writes indication messages to the registry key
“\HKCU\Software\Nortel Networks\MVC2050\Log” for connection or
disconnection events. This is a circular queue of 29 entries.
Each time a connection or disconnection event occurs, a log entry is
written. The entries contain a date and time, and a description of the
connection or disconnection event.
The following section describes connection and disconnection events.
Table 9: Hardware ID screen
Selection Description
Hardware ID This box contains the MAC address for the Ethernet
hardware installed in your device. MVC 2050 uses the
MAC address of the Ethernet hardware as its
Hardware ID. You can change this value if there is
more than one MAC address, or if the device is using
an Extranet client that hides the true MAC address.
For example, the Nortel Contivity Extranet Switch
uses a single MAC address for all clients. This can
cause connection problems with your communication
server.
Auto-Create This changes the MAC address that appears in the
Hardware ID box. If your device has more than one
MAC address, press the Auto-Create button to cycle
through the set of MAC addresses on your computer.
Auto-Create also makes up random Hardware IDs, in
case the Ethernet hardware addresses are not unique
to the communication server.
Firmware
Version
Shows the build number of MVC 2050 installed on
your device. This value is the version number of the
application last reported by the server.
