Changes for 2.1.1

  • Software Releases

    • New DPMA release 2.1.1

  • DPMA Changes

    • Issues Addressed

      • The phone PIN as voicemail PIN feature introduced in 2.1 tied the phone pin to an app_voicemail() mailbox matching the phone's line identifier.  This behavior is improper because it requires phone line identifier, and thus SIP peer identifier, to match the voicemail box identifier.  Common user configurations can easily run counter to this, resulting in undesirable behavior.  Thus, 2.1.1 changes course to instead pull the mailbox identifier directly from the SIP peer.  This change is not backwards compatible and the undesirable behavior is not maintained going forward.

    • Features Added

      • None

Changes for 2.1

  • Software Releases

    • New DPMA release 2.1

      • If used with chan_pjsip, DPMA release 2.1 requires pjproject version 2.3.  Use of older versions of pjproject may result in unexpected behavior.  Users of DPMA with chan_pjsip should not upgrade to DPMA 2.1 without also rebuilding Asterisk against pjproject version 2.3.

    • Issues Addressed

      • Call waiting tone can now be disabled from DPMA using the call_waiting_tone option

      • Font size can now be manipulated using the default_fontsize option.  Great care should be taken when using this option as large sizes will cause labels to overrun their space

      • Phone PIN, and in turn voicemail locking PIN, can, for flat-file app_voicemail implementations, now be tied directly to a phone's primary line's voicemail account by setting pin=voicemail.  This feature also requires using Asterisk versions 12.5.0, 11.12.0 or 11.6-cert5 or greater.

Changes for 2.0

        • Requires phone firmware >= 1.4.0

        • NOTE : Do not use the blf_items keyword with phones running firmware prior to 1.4, otherwise they will end up in a boot loop.  This can be recovered from by simply removing the blf_items keyword.

      • New lan_port_mode and pc_port_mode phone options for controlling the Ethernet port speeds of the two interfaces

      • contacts_max_subscriptions phone option for setting the number of SUBSCRIBEs a phone is capable of

      • logos and contacts can now be retrieved from the file_url_prefix instead of the file_directory.  If a logo or contact file is not found in the file_directory, the phone will be told to retrieve it from the file_url_prefix.  If a contacts file is stored from and retrieved by file_url_prefix instead of file_directory, it is not possible for the phone to add a server-side contact.

      • Voicemails marked as Urgent now show up in the messaging application INBOX for Asterisk 1.8-cert and 11.x users; 10-digiumphones users will continue to experience the issue as the fix required modification to Asterisk code and the 10.x branch of Asterisk is in bugfix only timeframe
