System Setup

To perform the basic system setup, go to Configuration → Advanced Setup. Make sure to set your system name and primary IP address.

System Name

It is advisable to identify your system with a simple name. This will optionally be displayed on both administrator and user panels (display in header)

ipbx IP Address

This is the IP address or fully qualified domain name of your PBX server. If you have a public IP address assigned or port forwarding enabled, use your external IP address.

Default Landing

The default landing option specifies whether visitors are sent to the administrator interface or the End User Panel when accessing the webserver root.

End User Panel

The End User Panel settings control access and features for the End User Interface. The end user interface can be accessed via http://myipaddress/user, where myipaddress is your server. Some features might only be available if the appropriate module has been registered.

Voicemail

Display Voicemail PIN's in plain text will display Voicemail PIN's in plain text in the administrator interface. See System → Voicemail → Mailboxes.

Default PIN Mode When creating users, ipbx will automatically assign Voicemail PIN's to users. These can be either the same as the mailbox number or a random 4 digit number. See System → Voicemail → Mailboxes.

Conferencing

This interaction configures general options for 'meetme' style conferencing. The following options can set for announcing callers:

• don't announce callers default mode, no recordings and announcements will be made
• announce callers asks callers to record their name before joining the conference
• announce callers / record without review allow callers to review their recording

Trunks

This interaction configures general options for trunk calls. Force ringback tone on trunk calls will cause outbound calls to always signal a ringing state, even if the remote end does not provide it. Only enable this if you have problems with getting proper ringback signalling from the far end.

Click to Call

The Play back connection announcement will enable the playback of a connecting announcement when using click to call features in the End User Panel and URL Control API.

The Auto Answer caller phone will cause the first leg to automatically answer if supported by your phone. Commonly supported phones include, Aastra, Polycom and Linksys.

SIP Subscriptions

Automatic Hint Management allows you to control the automatic generation of SIP dialplan hints. This is required for busy lamp field (BLF) features on many phones.

System Default Caller ID

The system Default Caller ID number and name will be used whenever there is no preset default caller ID. If you want to present this caller ID to the far end regardless of whether the call was forwarded check also apply on forwarded calls. Note that some providers will override caller ID settings that

• are not within your assigned range
• do not conform to certain formatting standards or
• override it with a default caller ID.

If your provider does not accept caller ID name setting check don't send caller ID name on outbound calls. This is quite common on Voice T1's or E1's (PRI).

Dialing

With Automatically transform dialed numbers to E.164 syntax ipbx will attempt to send out calls using E.164 formatted numbers whenever trunks support it. See also Outbound Routes. (this is a deprecated feature, please refer to the routing and transformation features)

Additional Line Templates

If you are using the Additional Line/Softphone Module you can select a template that will be used to create the additional user line.

Hardware Interface

This setting allows you to select which hardware interface you wish to use.

CDR Maintenance

The CDR Maintenance allows you to set an automated deletion schedule for your call records.
