What's New for this Release
Release 11.0
Installation and Upgrades
- MBG 11.0 runs on Mitel Standard Linux Release 11.0. Before upgrading to MBG 11.0, verify that your server hardware is compatible with CentOS Linux 7.
- MSL 11.0 and later uses the Mitel Software Download Center, supported by a global content distribution network to increase speed and reliability of downloads.
- For Virtual MBG deployments, the Small Business configuration now uses 2 GB of RAM. Refer to the Virtual Appliance Deployment Guide.
Management
- The MiVoice Border Gateway (MBG) user interface (UI) is restructured to provide a more service-oriented solution. “Remote Proxy configuration is now done under the MBG UI.
- The interface is enhanced to include an option to search within the MBG UI. The Search option is available on the top right corner of the interface, on the main menu bar. The administrator can use this feature to find where to configure or view commonly used MBG options.
- The MBG Dashboard has a new look and feel. The purpose is to provide more visual or per-service indicators to the administrator.
- The Packet Trace diagnostics tool is redesigned to make it evident that there are two different types of traces and the data that is captured is different.
- The global trace is now a rotating capture limited to 1.2G and does not stop when leaving the interface. This trace automatically stops if there is less than 5G of disk space left.
- Starting the global trace also starts signalling pcap, done mainly to help troubleshoot MiCollab client that connect over SIP TLS.
- The Fetch all button downloads all the traces and the same logs that would be included in Fetch Logs.
MiNet Devices
- Mitel 6905, 6010, and 6970 series IP Phones can be used as teleworker devices on MBG with a MiVoice Business.
SIP Devices
- Support for push notification on MiCollab Android client in MiCollab 9.0.
SIP Trunks
- As of MBG 11.0, SIP Trunking is supported over TLS in SRV MODE.
- SIP trunking resiliency with DNS SRV has been enhanced to support re-registration before sending a call to a new gateway. This feature is supported for providers who use the same credentials for all SIP requests.
Call Recording
- MBG is now enhanced to provide SIPREC service in addition to SRC. SIPREC service is an industry-standard protocol to record SIP devices, enabling external Call Recording Equipment (CRE) to record audio calls.
