General Settings
Extension Length. Select 3, 4, 5, or 6 digits. This is the length of the extensions in Switchvox. Changing this number does not change existing extensions.
| Info |
|---|
NOTE: If you specify an extension length that is longer than some existing extensions, there may be a slight delay in internal dialing. For example, if you call a 3-digit extension, Switchvox waits a moment before connecting the call, to see if you are going to dial a fourth digit (or fifth or sixth). |
Beep after an assisted transfer. YES indicates you want to play a beep sound when an assisted transfer is done. For example: Jill puts Jack on hold then calls Jane, and asks her if she can speak with Jack. Jane agrees, and Jill transfers Jack to Jane. When the transfer is complete the beep is played, Jill is off the call, and Jack and Jane are on the call and can begin talking.
External Authentication
Beginning with Switchvox release 6.6, organizations using a directory service such as Active Directory can set up Switchvox so its phone-users can authenticate (log in) with their username and password from that directory service by selecting the LDAP user authorization type. For details, see Switchvox with Active Directory and LDAP.
