City Telephone Solution Status: Ed Toth said that the duplicate IP problem was resolved and we still need to decide on what to do with the firewall. There will be a meeting with John Hawley and ATT in the coming weeks. Dave Wrinn said that he has concerns about the phone system because system was down all day and troubleshooting was an issue, as well as the fact that we have no maintenance contract. The issue was caused by Telsource making changes to the system.
