XPhone Connect Configuration - UM#

Voicemail configuration#

In the following example, 401 is entered as the internal phone number for voicemail. All other parameters were not changed (default).

System settings > UM > Voicemail > General

../../_images/oxo_xp_voicemail_v5.png

Message Waiting Indication - MWI configuration#

If the telephone system is connected via CSTA, MWI is set or reset with CTI; this feature can, of course, only work, if a Line was configured for such an end device in the XPhone Connect Server under Telephony!

System settings > UM > Voicemail > MWI

../../_images/oxo_xp_mwi_v5.png

Auto Attendant configuration#

The call number for the Auto Attendant must be configured on the PBX side and permanently forwarded to the XPhone Connect Server. Information on the XPhone Connect Auto Attendant can be found here.

Fax configuration#

An internal fax number (configured beforehand in the telephone system) must be entered for the respective user. In this example, participant 101 has 301 as a fax number and the participant with 102 has 302 as a fax number. Nothing more is necessary to be able to send and receive faxes with the XPhone Connect Client.

XCC#

Hint

The SIP gateway for the AnyDevice, Softphone Mobile/Desktop, Meeting and TeamDesk functions is configured independently of the SIP trunk of the UM functions.

Configuring the PBX#

Create trunk

Create a trunk for the XCC under External lines > SIP > SIP gateways (here 10.21.0.50).

../../_images/9632.png

Domain proxy

  1. Enter the IP address of the XPhone Call Controller (XCC).

  2. Default Transport Mode: UDP.

  3. Customize remote SIP port (default 5060) - here 5062

../../_images/9633.png

Media

../../_images/9634.png

Results

  • Index 1: DT (SIP-Trunk)

  • Index 2: XCC

../../_images/9635.png

List of connections

The settings can be found under External lines > List of connections.

../../_images/1a_oxo-config.png
  • Add VoIP.

  • Assign trunk channels.

  • Select the gateway index (here 2-XCC).

../../_images/1b_oxo-config.png

Hint

If the SIP gateway has already been set up in XCC, the gateway status should change to Active.

List of bundles

In the example, this is set to XCC for the *501 trunk, VoIP is assigned via Details, and the name XCC is assigned if necessary.

../../_images/2_oxo-config.png

System Miscellaneous

Here you can see the system features Part 1 and Part 2.

../../_images/3a_oxo-config.png ../../_images/3b_oxo-config.png

Routing

In the routing table, it is important to set up routing in the direction of XCC for internal as well as external numbers. The setting is made under Numbering > Auto routing > Auto routing: Prefixes. In this example, the XCC uses the code 9 for three-digit extensions. In addition, the network must be treated as Private!

../../_images/4_oxo-config.png

Setup bundle for assignment in the automatic path search

Configure the *501 bundle with XCC assignment and adjust the selection table list accordingly to index 3 on bundle 2. In this case, the bundle *500 assigns the SIP connection (DT Telekom) with index 2 on nd 1.

../../_images/5_oxo-config.png

Adjustment of call number plan

In Internal and public number plan, the additional bundle with the ID 9 must be configured with NÄT:Keep and Private Yes. Proceed in the same way for Private number plan.

../../_images/6a_oxo-config.png ../../_images/6b_oxo-config.png

Hint

The Treatment as Private is used because the Private Prefix is set in the automatic path search.

Traffic distribution Trunk XCC

If the routing does not work, check the VoIP line > Connection categories settings in with the List of trunks > Trunks: Details > Connection categories settings with the traffic distribution.

../../_images/7_oxo-config.png

Hint

Likewise, you should check the matrix traffic distribution of the trunk to the provider and the authorizations of the subscribers.

Feature design

If the CLI for external diversion and CLI is diverted party if external caller parameters are not configured correctly, FollowMe will not work on account of an incorrectly transferred redirecting ID. Please note the following required information:

  1. It is very important for an inbound AnyDevice call (FollowMe) that CLI for external diversion is checked.

    ../../_images/oxo_xcc_4.png
  2. CLI is diverted party if external caller must not be checked!

Configuration of the XPhone Connect Server#

Dialling parameter#

Depending on the release version and configuration of the PBX, the following parameters may differ from the description.

Optionally, the parameters DefaultLineToDisplayFmt and DefaultPhoneToDis-playFmt can also be set with the value 16 if there are problems with the number resolution.

System settings > Dialling parameters > Dialling parameters object > Advanced settings

  • Name: Flags Value: 16
