Release Notes 68.0

Terminology​

We have renamed several items in the PBX. This will help better understand the product in today's terminology.

  • The term "domain" was largely renamed into "tenant", as in multi-tenant. The scope of the term "domain" is reduced when it comes to the address of the tenant, especially DNS.
  • We have also clarified the naming of the ACD and agent groups into call queues, or short queues. The term "agent groups" was not easy to understand, as the term "queues" seems to be widely used.
  • Also we have renamed the hunt groups into "ring groups", which is what most people would expect as a name.
  • Inside a tenant, we have started to remove references to the domain and also to the tenant, because when logged in as a tenant the reference is confusing and obscures the sandbox impression. For example, we have renamed the "domain address book" into a "shared address book".

We will keep updating the texts across the various places, including the documentation and the website and present a concise use of those terms. However this cannot be done in one step and will take time. In the forum, we will not go back and change forum post content.

Frontend​

We have made many improvements and added new features to the front end. These changes are visible in the users web front end, in the Windows app and also in the Android app.

  • The frontend now can play the ringtone just like VoIP phones. In the browser, we recommend to allow audio elements to play even without user interaction (depending on the browser). The device for ringing can be selected independent from the audio device for the conversation, which makes it easier to alert users with headsets.
  • The new front end supports video calling from one user to another user.
  • In the queue view, we have separated waiting calls from connected calls. Depending on user permission, a pop-up window can be used to barge, listen, teach, connect or just disconnect the call. In the call lists, pop-up dialogs were streamlined to add numbers to the address book, call numbers or text numbers.
  • The column for the extensions may now have multiple columns to allow more users to be visible without scrolling. Favorites are now stored in the backend, and groups can be defined by the administrator for multiple users (see below). If calls can be picked up from an extension, the caller-ID will be visible and the call can be picked up through a pop-up window.
  • Search was improved for the various lists, and it does now include the transcriptions in the mailbox view.
  • When creating a conference from the front end, the callers of the conference are now visible in the call list. Participants can be removed from the web front end.
  • Park orbits are now shown in the main screen of the front end. Calls can be dragged onto a park orbit, and parked calls can be picked up from the park orbits by clicking on them.
  • The call list will show what number was called if it is not the number of the user's account.
  • The address book in the user front end did not show all fields that were available.
  • There were still some texts where the localization was missing.
  • The display on telephone numbers was changed to a better readable form like in the administrator web interface.

After upgrading to 68, users will have to reload the front end content. It is also recommended to upgrade the Windows and Android apps to the latest versions.

Groups​

This version introduces the concept of groups. Groups can now be used to define what rights accounts have and what other extensions they relate to. For example, a group can define which extensions have the right to play back recordings. Groups can also be used to define what extensions the users will see in the front end. This replaces the previous concept of permissions. When upgrading the system to version 68, the permissions will be converted into groups.

Queues​

There were several important improvements and new features for queues (ACD):

  • When using the parallel ring feature of the queue, a second call would not immediately be connected with another agent and result in additional wait time for the caller.
  • We have worked on the virtual hold feature of the queue. The system can now validate the number to call back and have the user enter a different number. The queue now uses a dial plan to determine if the number can be called back, which makes it much easier to handle for example continental USA area codes.
  • The announcement that the queue can call back can now be on the condition that the wait time exceeds a threshold value.
  • The page that shows the call history for the ACD in the tenant interface can now download the data as CSV files.
  • The report emails for the queue can now be sent in a graphical form that includes most of the information from the front end.
  • The timestamp for login and logout call data records were not set correctly. Also the behavior when the maximum number of calls was reached was ambiguous when there was no action selected.

Phone Numbers​

Phone numbers are reformatted and now can contain spaces. For example, numbers in the USA now read like (617) 399-8147 and numbers in Germany read like 030 55578992. This is in line with the rules in most countries. The presentation in the web interface, especially in the call logs, has also been improved and now avoids displaying the number twice. This has the consequence that when entering numbers, the separator symbol cannot be a space any more and now needs to be a semicolon. When there are multiple numbers, the web front end displays the numbers in that format automatically. DID numbers can now be imported through a CSV format. There was some confusion on the presentation of UK numbers that should be resolved by now.

Do Not Disturb​

We made a few changes to the do-not-disturb feature. When setting the DND status, users can now set a reason and a duration how long the DND should stay on. The duration can be in hours, but can also be set until the end of the day or infinite. For VoIP phones, a setting is available that defines how the DND button on the phone should be handled.

Logging​

We have worked on numerous places to add and enhance log texts. This should help finding problems faster. The log settings can now have an expiry time. This will automatically stop the logging after a problem is resolved. Keeping the log levels up was a nuisance and unnecessary load to the system. The system graphs are now written to the file system, so that after a restart they are still available. This also is the case for the total call minute counter. The midnight email that contains the graphs got a facelift.

Security and Privacy​

The welcome email can now contain a temporary password that the user has to change after logging in. When the system had double email addresses in multiple accounts, it would lead to confusing results for the login. Also the deletion of an account did not delete the email address from the internal cache, which led to even more confusion. The system can now suppress the generation of call data records for specified extensions, which helps with legal compliance in some areas (e.g. Betriebsrat in Germany). The barcode for the pairing with the mobile apps can now have a time limitation. This will improve security and make the codes shorter as well.

Service Flags​

It was at times difficult to use flags in several places because of the active or inactive nature of the times defined in the flag. Because of this, the new version allows to reference flags as they are or as inverted in value. For example, a flag for the office hours could be used in active state for redirecting calls in the auto attendant to a mailbox and at the same time used for allowing cell phone twinning during the office hours. The new version also contains better logging to make the testing easier. When the status of a service flag was changed manually, this did not trigger connected actions, for example changing the DND of classroom extensions. Service flag dates can now recognize localization rules, for example 7/6 in the USA would have a different meaning than in the UK.

Conferences​

In previous recordings, the system was recording the call leg of the moderator for the conference. This had some restrictions, especially when there was no moderator. In 68, the recordings will happen with the shared conference audio. The recordings are saved in the domain recordings folder and can be accessed similar to a regular call recording. There is a new conference mode that will automatically mute participants when they enter the conference, similar to what is available for most video conferences.

Mailbox​

The mailbox email now contains more information about how the call ended up on the mailbox. If the codecs for a mailbox message and the comment were different, the prepending of the comment would not work and the message would sound garbled. The new version has more stages to the supervisor mailbox callback, this makes it easier to migrate customers from other systems.

FAX​

The front end can now send FAX messages out. This currently works only if T38 is supported by the receiving party. The jitter buffer for receiving non-T38 FAX was too small. This was causing problems with pages not received completely. When the PBX receives a page that is incomplete, it now disconnects the call so that the sender can try again.

PC Apps and User Front End​

The PBX can now indicate what ring tone to use to alert the user. For the web based versions, this requires that there is some kind of interaction between the user and the page, otherwise the audio elements will not play. The address book now shows all available fields. In previous versions, some fields were missing. Calls that exceed a certain duration can now be shown in different colors in the frontend queue view. Calls that can be picked up from an extension show the caller-ID in the pickup dialog. Users can send text messages into paging accounts. The system will convert the text into audio and render it on the devices. Conference calls can be made between the active call and all held calls and the attendees can be seen as join or leave; and the conference call host can hang up an attendee.

Mobile Apps​

The apps show the possibility to text a number only if a SMS provider is available for the tenant, and if those settings are set. This avoids frustration with users that use the feature without a provider. The calculation which calls where in the missed call time span was incorrect and was causing incorrect counters in the app badge. Android app should wake up more quickly now on incoming calls. Vibrate function added to Android app on incoming calls when on.

Trunks​

There can now be multiple custom trunk headers. Worked on trunk settings for QuestBlue.

Devices​

We have added a bulk button assignment for the VoIP phones from the web interface, so that the administrator does not need to assign this to each extension on a separate page. Depending on taste, users preferred to use the built-in ringtones for VoIP phones. This can also now be selected in the ringtone dropdown.

Polycom​

Added support for VVX601 which was missing.

Avaya​

Added support for Avaya phones J169 and J179.

Grandstream​

Fixed the Grandstream buttons for almost all models where some VPK behavior had changed. Also fixed http password for provisioning for certain models. Fixed LDAP setup. Also fixed the transport selection through provisioning. Added multicast setup.

HTek​

Fixed extended keypad button setup through provisioning. Also added HTek UC926U, UC923U and UC924U.

When deleting a Yealink MAC address from the system, the synchronization with the Yealink Management Cloud Service was not deleting the corresponding entry correctly. The YMCS can now also be used to provision phones in the LAN. The Yealink template was changed to use the static keyword for provisioning variables. The post-processing of the Yealink files for removal of double entry was not handling all variables correctly. Added buttons for CP965, CP960, CP925 and CP920. Added Yealink T58W.

Snom and VTech​

The new SRAPS API is available now. This means that the MAC and the associated password will be saved in SRAPS. This eliminates the need to open the associated extension for provisioning. There were still problems with the LDAP lookup for numbers that are hopefully solved now. The new version supports the VTech S3410 and S2315 hotel phones. Added snom D335. The logo placement for the snom D785 was changed for better look.

Fanvil​

The Fanvil X6U had the wrong background image.

Flyingvoice​

Added support for Flyingvoice phones FIP10, FIP10P, FIP11C, FIP11CP, FIP13G, FIP14G and FIP15G.

CDR​

Fixed a few CDR issues like corrected the start time so that using the start time, the call states and legs can be put in the correct order easily to tell the full story. Also, a single CDR now tells the full story of the call; when there was an attended transfer, there were extra call data records that should not be reported. The duration of the different segments for ringing and talking could be incorrectly linked to the IVR duration.

Zoho​

There was a problem with Zoho when multiple calls were involved in the queue. Register the pbx url for pbx apis that Zoho uses for click to dial, answer call, end call etc. Added answer call, hangup call, hold call, resume call capabilities in the Zoho pop up. Also made a fix not to show pop-ups for extension to extension call, incoming or outgoing. Also only admin can disable the Zoho integration.

Other Items​

There are several other items in this release:

  • There was a limitation on how many Vodia phones (Apps, user portals) could be registered from the same extension at the same time. This limitation was removed.
  • The PBX was using the web language for the transcription services. This was a problem with UK and Australia accents. The PBX now uses the IVR language setting.
  • In addition to the current caller-ID, the action URL for connecting an agent can now also use the original caller-ID.
  • Added Teams incoming call formatting (removing + or +CC if present) in order to find a local account even if the call comes from a non-mapped Teams extension.
  • Fixed an issue with TCP making outbound connections for trunks.
  • We have added support for bulkcnam caller-ID lookup. The lookup can now be enabled or disabled at trunk level.
  • The dial plan rejection entry can now include a text that will be read to the caller. This will help improve users' understanding on why a number cannot be dialed.
  • Instead of using a SMTP server, emails can now be sent through a Vodia-provided server. The number of retries after failure to send out an email is now a setting.
  • The locations were not part of the domain backup.
  • The SNMP server now supports SNMP walks.
  • We have added a star code (*56 by default) for an echo test. The test will echo the received DTMF numbers as spoken text.
  • The automatic address book update from older versions is not taking place any more after a restart. This saves time for bringing the PBX service up and running.
  • When the other side of the call changes the SSRC in the RTP stream, the PBX will now reset the stream as well. This solves audio startup problems with some VoIP phones.
  • When starting an intercom call to an extension that has a VoIP phone and a soft phone registered, the system will now skip the softphones. This is what most users would expect. The behavior can be controlled with a setting that lists the softphones that should be skipped. Also the system would not intercom extensions that are in a call (some devices would put the call on hold and play the intercom).
  • One auto attendant can now be the default auto attendant, e.g. when connecting to the auto attendant from the virtual private assistant.
  • There was a race condition when hanging up a call, which could lead to some random results in some fields when reporting the call data record.
  • The playback of stereo recording files from the web interface was not working properly.
  • Added Access-Control-Expose-Headers: Date for better CORS interoperability.
  • The collection of statistics for the queue agent interaction duration could lead to very large JSON objects. Now it is kept in a different format that scales well with a large number of calls.
  • The Content-Type for Action-URL can now be set in the header section.
  • To support the simple generation of invoices for tenants, the system can now send emails with the relevant content.
  • The domain backup did not store the user's image properly.
  • There were several performance problems in the web interface when using a large number of extensions.
  • There were still problems with SSH access on the Vodia IOP which should be working fine now. The IOP now also has a page where the static IP address can be set.

68.0.8​

  • Paging groups can now reference other groups including other paging groups and hunt groups in order to determine who gets paged.
  • When creating a group, the scope setting did not work in all cases. Groups had to be edited to be correct.
  • The minibrowser support for Snom and Fanvil devices was not working properly and has been revisited.

  • Support for the new QuestBlue SMS API was added.
  • The system now provisions names for the Yealink DECT handsets. When using the Yealink RPS, reprovisioning could fail because the PBX server URL was not set in some cases.
  • Some improvements for ALE phones, including button type for voicemail and the firmware path for H models.
  • Deleting shared mailbox messages from the app was not deleting the shadow copies of the message.
  • For SIP trunks that are using OPTIONS, the system will now reconnect the TCP/TLS connection if there was not response to the OPTIONS message. This should help automatically clearing up persistent connections that have a communications failure.

68.0.12​

  • Some improvements for Fanvil phones. The X7C did not have the right names for buttons. Introduced a Fanvil-specific button mode like with other phone manufacturers, so that the generated code can be overwritten.
  • Reject invalid SDP. When an SDP attachment was invalid in a INVITE request, the PBX would not send the response back. This will be used for TELES SBC that send Re-INVITE with T.38 and RTP.
  • Downloading the Google contacts did not update the internal cache.
  • Firmware paths were missing for some Yealink models.

  • Better default for tenant MoH when MoH was created for a specific tenant.
  • Fixes for QuestBlue JSON SMS.
  • Automatically load audio_moh files e.g. for FAX tones.
  • Park fix: Handle different scenarios of parking a call. E.g. some phones/versions hold call before parking it, others park the active call directly, and we also don't want a previously held call or a ringing call etc.
  • Check permission in the user front end must include the defaults as well.
  • More control over caller-ID update depending on User-Agent.
  • Park orbit: Local connected leg, instead of any leg to park it

  • Changed Yealink LDAP search string so that it looks for string ocurance. In previous versions, it was looking for the beginning of the search string.
  • The address book lookup could fail when the number was not formatted the right way on inbound calls. In the 68.0.20 version, the system makes sure that the number is formatted to match the telephone number format.
  • When a call queue misses a call, it now can add the caller automatically to the callback list.
  • The call queues were considering the login status for all agents, including those who are in the additonal pools. This could be counter productive, e.g. when redirecting calls when agents are not logged in. The new version has a new flag that allows better control over this.
  • The search of a number in History-Info was not workig properly. This could cause problems with the association of redirected calls in Microsoft Teams.
  • When a call comes back from the park orbit, it will use the Diversion header to indicate the orbit. VoIP phones that support this header will show the information on the screen.
  • The newer snom M700/M900 firmware was using a different value for the LDAP authentication.
  • Tenant administrators now have the permission to add MAC addresses as long as those MAC addresses are not use in other tenants.

  • Problems with reformatting STIR/SHAKEN caller-ID for incoming calls
  • When entering a callback number in the queue, the periodic annoucement could interrupt the caller. Also the music on hold was not turned off.
  • In order to reduce memory usage, the TLS session duration is used only after successful authentication. Also, the list for tracking unsuccessful connections was not reset quick enough, which could result in significate memory build-up.
  • Many improvements for Avaya J100-series
  • Added a name to the account for generating invoices that can differ from the actual extension type
  • Found bug when logging in with the email address instead of the account number. Better handling when same email address was used in several tenants.

  • A web client close connection race condition could cause requests being dropped without retrying.
  • Added Gigaset N870 and N670.

  • Queues: When multiple calls were enabled, the system would start calling even when agents were enganged in calls.
  • Poly: Some attributes in the provisioning template seem to confuse the phone and were taken out.
  • Grandstream: There were some problems with AUS timezones.
