Users¶
The installation process creates Alice and Bob users, allowing us to test internals calls between them without too much effort.
We skipped most of the settings in Users configuration that we will described in this section.
Personal data¶
- Name
- Used to identify this user in most of the screens. This is also the name that will be displayed in internal calls made from this user.
- Lastname
- Most of the times this is used to complete the previous field.
- Email used to send the user’s received voicemails. This is also used to identify the user in their portal.
Geographic Configuration¶
- Language
- When a locution is played to this user, this language is used.
- Timezone
- User portal call list times will use this timezone.
- Numeric transformation
- Defines how numbers are converted from user format to E.164 and the other way around.
- Location
- User geographical location where the user is working at.
Login Info¶
- Active
- Allows administrators to grant or disable user’s acces to the user’s portal.
- Password
- Password used to access the user’s portal.
- QR Code
- If enabled, a QR code for Grandstream Wave softphone configuration will be shown.
Basic Configuration¶
- Terminal
- The available terminals created in Terminals are listed here for assignment.
- Screen Extension
- One of the available Extensions that this user will display when placing internal calls. While multiple extensions can be routed to the user, only one of them will be presented when the user calls.
- Outgoing DDI
- As described in Outgoing DDI configuration, determines the number that will present when placing external outgoing calls.
- Outgoing DDI Rules
- Manages exceptions to previous setting. Read Outgoing DDI Rules for further reference.
- Call ACL
- One of the created Call ACL groups, described it the previous sections.
- Do not disturb
- When this setting is enabled, the user won’t receive any call but can still place calls.
- Call waiting
- Limits received calls when already handling this number of calls. Set 0 for unlimited.
- Calls from non-granted IPs
- Enable calling from non-granted IP addresses for this user. It limits the number of outgoing calls to avoid toll-fraud. ‘None’ value makes outgoing calls unlimited as long as client IP policy is fulfilled. Read Roadwarrior users for further reference.
- Multi Contact
- Same SIP credentials can be configured in multiple SIP devices. In that case, all devices ring simultaneously when receiving a call. Setting this toggle to ‘No’ limits this behaviour so that only latest registered SIP device rings.
- Call Rejection Method
- This setting allows configuring a behaviour on call rejection for users with several SIP devices (Multi Contact: yes). In such scenarios, all devices ring simultaneously and call rejection must choose whether rejecting call just in the device that declined or in all ringing devices. Default behaviour is to cancel call in all devices for 600/603 response codes and only in current device for 480/486. Choose whether you want to force one behaviour or another no matter which response code your SIP device sends on call rejection.
Boss-Assistant¶
This feature will turn the user into a boss that can only be directly call by:
- The selected assistant.
- Any origin that matches the white list.
The rest of the calls to a boss will be redirected to the assistant.
- Is boss
- Determines if this user is a boss.
- Assistant
- Who will receive the redirected calls of this boss.
- Whitelist
- Match Lists with origins that are allowed to call directly to the boss.
With the setup in the image, every call to Alice will be redirected to Bob, except the ones placed by Bob itself and those coming from any origin that matches Alice’s friends matchlist.
Group Configuration¶
As described in the sections Hunt groups and Pick up groups, the user can be part of one or more hunt groups and pickup groups.
Those groups can be configured from the sections Hunt groups and Pick up groups or the user’s screen if the groups already exists.
You can also configure the user’s hunt groups from the icon in each user line of the users list.
User Call Forward¶
The user’s call forward can be configured with the List of call forward settings button.
These are the fields and available values:
- Call Type
- Determines if the forward must be applied to external, internal or any type of call.
- Forward type
- When this forward must be applied:
- Unconditional: always
- No answer: when the call is not answered in X seconds
- Busy: When the user is talking to someone (and call waiting is disabled), when Do not disturb is enabled or when the user rejects an incoming call.
- Not registered: when the user SIP terminal is not registered against IvozProvider.
- Target type
- What route will use the forwarded call.
- VoiceMail
- Number (external)
- Extension (internal)
Hint
If we want to forward to other process, we can create an extension routed to that object and use the target type Extension.
