Release Notes 6.5.3.1
Important Installation Information
1. There are separate software distributions for each of the Allworx server models. It is very important to
install the proper software builds on the proper product platforms.
2. Never directly downgrade a server disk with older software than is already installed. The correct
procedure is to boot the server into Safe Mode, format the drive and install the older software, however,
current configurations will be lost. Another option is to boot the server into Safe Mode and restore an
older OfficeSafe backup.
3. If new Server code is installed in Safe Mode, it is important that a second install be performed in
application mode: Maintenance>Upgrade to ensure that the flash has the correct release of software.
4. Phone software is completely common between the Allworx server products. Phones are inter-operable
between different server models.
5. Allworx phones must be rebooted after installation of this software version to obtain their new code.
Note: Allworx phones will not allow you to downgrade software.
6. If an Allworx IP phone is reporting a Config / Init Error, restore factory defaults in the phone station and
allow the phone to reboot.
7. For Site-to-Site (multiple Allworx servers) Allworx installations, all the servers must have 6.5 software
running to avoid any problems due to changes made to certain proprietary features that exist in the
Allworx servers and their related phones.
