3CX Version 9 Service Pack 53CX freut sich das Service Pack 5 für das 3CX Phone System V9 bekannt zu geben, welches hauptsächlich Bug Fixe der bestehenden Anlage bereitstellt und damit das letzte Service Pack für 2010 sein wird. Das SP steht ab sofort als Download aus der 3CX Verwaltungskonsole (Nicht via Web Interface) bereit und updatet auf die Version 15536. Das Service Pack benötigt ca. 5-10 Minuten für das Update und ist ~20MB groß.

Neuerung – PnP (Plug and Play)

Mit dem SP5 stellt 3CX das Plug and Play (PnP) für Yealink und Tiptel Telefon vor. Es ist geeignet für Firmen mit DHCP Servern, der die Option 66 NICHT unterstützt (Router DHCP). Sie brauchen die IP Adresse Ihres Telefones nicht mal zu kennen um ein Provisioning auf das Telefon auszuführen.

  • Verbinden Sie das Yealink/Tiptel mit dem Netzwerk und lassen es eine IP via DHCP beziehen
  • Wechseln Sie in die 3CX Verwaltungskonsole und Sie werden das IP Phone in “fetter” Schrift in der Verwaltungskonsole unter “Telefone” sehen.
  • Durch einen rechtsklick auf das Telefon können Sie wählen ob Sie das Telefon einer bestehenden Nebenstelle zuordnen wollen oder eine neue Nebenstelle anlegen möchten.
  • Wählen Sie unter Provisioning das passende Modell aus, die Mac Adresse wurde schon vom 3CX Phone System V9 SP5 eingetragen.
  • Speichern Sie die Einstellungen durch “Übernehmen/OK”.
  • Das Telefon führt automatisch einen Reboot durch und startet mit allen Einstellungen für die Nebenstelle.
  • Beachten Sie den Guide für Yealink oder Tiptel bezüglich Displaysprachen und Firmwareupdate.

Known Issues

  1. Yealink phones pick up calls from Queue will pick up wrong leg of call. Reported and fixed in Yealink nest firmware update
  2. When a call to an extension with RMS is recorded and answered from the mobile phone, you will get a small audio file with no audio.
  3. Queue position will not be accurate if there are a lot of ringing polling calls in the queue
  4. If you have your extension configured with RMS, and you try and trigger a call from the Assistant, this will ring your own number
  5. Polycom users: G722 will not work directly with the latest Polycom firmware and users will not be able to transfer calls. Options to fix this temporarily are to bind the extensions to media server or put PCMU/PCMA at the top of the codec list (edit templates). G722 native support will be available in Version 10

Note (BETA): 3CX Users that want to register 3CXPhone for Android from an external location can modify a parameter in the custom parameters table of the 3CX Management console (Settings/Advanced/Custom Parameters) “ALLOWSOURCEASOUTBOUND”. Set this to 1 and you will receive 2 way audio upon successful registration. However this might have a negative effect on VoIP Providers so be careful to test this out properly on your environment before.
