Managing FortiVoice gateways, local survivability, and firmware
A managed gateway is one of the FortiVoice Gateways that either contains FXS, FXO, or PRI ports that handles calls for the FortiVoice phone system. Gateway Management enables auto-discovery of other FortiVoice gateways on the network and offers remote device management from a centralized FortiVoice phone system. Gateways will still need to be configured for network setting and administrator passwords, but all other configurations will be received from the FortiVoice unit.
FVE-100F and larger systems can manage gateways.
