They do that on the screen?
yes, on the screen of the snom 360.
they required no user/password when i initially mutli-cast provisioned them!

I don’t think I changed ANYTHING in pbxnsip…but today ALL our phones are asking for USER & PASSWORd when they reboot...(on the snom360 screen)
Is this something simple? tx
Snom360
FW 7.3.23 or 7.1.x
NOTE: we are using multicast provisioning. So we shouldn't need to type in the passwords/user.

I have my cell phone associated with my extension.
When i call pbxnsip from my cell phone i get special prompt "press x for vm, press x for call..."
BUt when i set REDIRECTION to CONFIRMATION =PRESS 1 TO CONNECT CALL...
the cell phone get no such message...its just connected...
I test by dialing *00101 (101=extension)
I've noticed every now and then i DOES give the prompt.

Hello,
This is a frustration to us also.
We were on pbxnsip v3.2 and moved to v3.4 and it now stopped working.
I've verified:
#1-NOT more than 1 registration on either of the phones involved in the *90 call
#2-both extensions have permission of *
What I am seeming to notice: extensions made BEFORE the upgrade canNOT initiate *90 successfully. Those added AFTER CAN initiate!!
(when the extension added does not seem to matter if recieving the *90)
Can you speak to this?

Would it be possible for you to write up the best practices method for provisioning snom phones using pbxnsip?
I have a box of brand new snom phones and a cs410 and am getting a little frustrated with the amount of time its taking to run simple software upgrades. snom is advising logging into each phone and pasting a URL into the phone. This upgrades but it's silly and very time consuming to have to do each one by hand - and it sticks at the end and requires a manual re-boot of the phone!
I would *love it* if you had an article which told me:
- WHERE on the PBX to drop the snom software and default settings file; and
- WHAT settings I need to change on the PBX
So that all I have to do is know the MAC address of a new phone. (It's printed on the box and on a sticker. )
I put that in a PBXnSIP account record, plug in the phone, it boots, upgrades to the latest firmware, loads its settings and I'm done.
A cheat sheet with the basic steps to make this happen would be gold - especially if you continually updated it as the steps change. We would always know where to look.
Can this be done or am I blind and you will point me to a page I have missed?
Thanks,
Alex
I agree with this post.
But I think these issues can be fixed...

wow!

I'm not sure you should make it generic. Extensions are what I (at least) typically battle with this in. If you make it generic we cant change the settings we need.
Just my opinion,

Hello,
I run a microsoft gold partner that works with multiple soft-ippbx's. (writting a book on soft ippbx too if that helps ;-)
I agree that lots of versions is often a sign of a new product.
Lot's of questions can be a couple of things: untrained channel/resellers, immature software with issues or a product with features missing that a lot of people need. Or it could just be a product with massive amount of users too.
I've worked with several ippbx's and I can say that pbxnsip is rock solid. The code is obviously managed by someone with good quality assurance and engineering standards. You can install pbxnsip and just about forget about like a good old blackbox pbx. (but don't forget about it ;-)
On the engineering level keep some of these things in mind: pbxnsip has an install file that is about 16MB, when running pbxnsip has few dependencies on the OS making it quite resilient, pbxnsip only uses one windows service that for 20 extensions takes about 50MB of ram! Upgrading is a matter of dropping one .exe file into a directory--5 minutes. All of these things speaks of elegant design in my mind.
Feature wise pbxnsip has the features that people moving from traditional pbx's want. And the features work.

typically the reason the service doesn't start is someone else using http port pbxnsip wants to.
did u check that?

Another thing that would help streamline the process would be a template account where you could set all of the settings the way you want, and then every new account will utilize them.
Having an account that if you changed it, would apply the changed values to all existing accounts would be handy as well.
Great ideas. Especially the template account for new accounts would be great.
But changing existing settings is also something that would be nice.

Cool...i need to test that...
thanks a bundle..

Hello,
Mass editing a setting on extensions can be a real clicking around...just change all extensions to allow intercom, or to change a button profile...
So some mechanism to make mass editing easier sure would be appreciated...
next and prev would help...especially if it would stay on the same screen.
If there is some other way, please let me know! ;-)

Hello,
I'm curious. We have several pbxnsip installs that have 1 pbxnsip server and phone at several locations. Sometimes they have pstn gateways at the "other" location too.
If WAN connectivity is lost, if the snom phone could register directly with the pstn gateway to accept a call, that would be great. Is this even possible theoretically? or something like it?
not urgent,
matt
-
ok...it works like it is...
but all "redirect" lights come on if you have more than one. But it DOES redirect to the one you've pressed. ...you just can't (at a glance) see which one you redirected tooo...
but this is a feature i've requested from other ippbx vendors...so great!
great work guys,
tx
matt

One button redirection change! wow...
So this should work for redirecting to external phone too?
that is really neat.
I'm curious if a user has two "one-button" redirections setup for his phone...does that work? (home, cell...for example)
let me check...
matt

Really appreciate that.
matt

Excellent!
I will try it out.

I'm curious, could the standard pbxnsip provisiong for snom be set to take care of this?
or are there other repercussions?

I noticed a new feature in v3.4 that looks interesting but I can't seem to figure out how to use it: new TRANSFER button.
I think it allows a user to transfer a ringing call? Is this correct? if not, let me know what it does do.

I'm using pacv3 with pbxnsip v3.4 and...good work guys!
-holding mouse over call icon under an extension tells when call started! great
-and it tells what trunk the call is on
-DND status shows in the pac--GREAT GREAT! (and it doesn't get unsynced! great work)
-holding mouse over over extension icon show vm's info
-no more IE error when clicking on calls under an extension
-clikcing on an extension to get dropdown menu works more smoothly
Good improvements!

I'd like to say I am running PAC v3 on my desktop and I'm liking the extension screeen better than I originally thot I might...
Some bugs I notice:
-when you click on an ongoing call underneath an extension it gives an error
-sometimes when i try to go back to the main menu it just hangs...
-SUGGESTION-it would be nice if when a call is parked (and shown under a the ext. who parked it) it would show WHO & HOW LONG on park for
-SUGGESTION- it would be nice to be able to resize the window to show more stuff
-SUGGESTION- it would be great if a receptionist could just click on a call she parked to give the waiting party an update...
Let me know what's happening with the pac. I think it is a very good idea that needs some refining to be useful.
matt

I see the pac v3 does this. Great!
-But problem: the receptionist can now see she has a call parked, but doesn't know who it is parked FOR!
is there a way to see which extension a call is parked for with PAC? (PAC > settings > park orbits: doesn't seem to work)
-It also doesn't say how long the call is parked for her to determine she needs to give it attention.
-Also, it would be great if she could click on the call parked (under her extension) and pick it up.
Hopefully I'm missing something.
It's great she can see a call is there...but the clients big request was that the receptionist know who it was FOR.
thanks for the help! very good,
matt
ps- also when i click on the parked call under the receptionists' extension in PAc i get a IE script error, is that normal?

This lack could cause sales.
