Switchvox SMB 5.5.4 Release Notes

Enhancements

• Phone Networks now includes an Alternate PBX Address setting. In the event that a Digium Phone can no longer reach Switchvox at the PBX Address, the Phone will register to the Alternate PBX Address. If this happens, the Phone will be in Failover Mode, and many of its Phone Applications won't be available for use. However, the phone should be able to make and receive calls over this alternate host.

• Spanish (ES and MX) and Italian are now supported for the new features in version 5.5.
