Improvements

Change of term

Proxy server for COMfortel SoftPhonerenamed toProxy server for Online services.

Various texts in the COMtrexx Control Center environment.

Emails could not be sent if the sender's email address did not match the server. Now any e-mail address is accepted if only one outgoing mail server has been set up. If you set up more than one outgoing mail server, the domains of the senders must match the addresses of the associated outgoing mail servers in order for emails to be sent (e.g. emailcomtrexx@web.de with smtp.web.de).

Bug Fixes

InterCom

The automatic termination of an InterCom connection only worked on the initiating telephone, but not on the InterCom destination.

Provisioning

Auto-provisioning (zero-touch) of Snom phones was no longer possible.

Status display Presence

Network interface (second)

It is now possible to set up a second network interface in the PBX under the following conditions.

• Upgrade with a NET-Modul (only COMtrexx Business)

Online Help

All information on hardware and VM variants is now also available in the online help.

Provisioning

d-series_template.xml: To prevent repeated attempts to subscribe to a voicemail box after logging out (roaming user), a subscription failure handling function has been added to the COMfortel d-series phone template for the identity. In individually created provisioning files, this change must be transferred manually.
<subscriptionFailureHandling>...</subscriptionFailureHandling>

Transfer configuration

A configuration can now be transferred from one variant to a specific other variant.

Bug Fixes

Analogue fax machine

With some providers it was not possible to send fax messages in the local phone network.

Note: : If an analogue telephone and a user instead of an external device fax were temporarily configured as a workaround, this must be reversed.

Logging into the Web Interface

Only applies to version 2.2.0 COMtrexx Next: After deleting all contacts, it was no longer possible to log in.

LDAP

If automatic exchange line request was switched off, the 0 for exchange line request was not transferred to the contacts. External calls initiated via the contacts failed. LDAP now checks the automatic exchange line request when a call number is requested. If the telephone number to be supplied has more than 4 digits, it is regarded as external and preceded by an exchange line access number.

Note: For the few exceptions where telephone numbers with less than 5 digits are external, these must be entered with the local area code.

If automatic exchange line request was switched off, no internal phone numbers/contacts were displayed for newly created users.

An unnecessary empty contact Admin was displayed in the COMfortel D-series phone.

LDAP / Voicemail App

If automatic exchange line request was switched off, the callback via the voicemail app did not work on a COMfortel D-series phone.

NAT traversal

The public IP address was also sent in the header, even if the option was switched off.

Presence

After logging out (roaming user), a COMfortel D-series phone was still displayed as available.

Call forwarding

External call forwarding was always carried out via accounts at the system location and sometimes failed. The account associated with the redirected number is now used.

Web interface

Bug Fixes

COMfortel SoftPhone

Changing ports were used to connect to the proxy server. Now a fixed port is always used.

Softphones with a '+' in the password could not register. This remains the case. Automatically generated passwords no longer contain a '+'. For manually entered passwords, the '+' must be avoided/removed.

Note: When using the COMfortel SoftPhone for Windows, the IPv6 address of the PC must currently be/remain disabled for a stable telephony function.

Remote Backup

With larger amounts of data (e.g. due to longer announcements), error messages occurred during the backup.

Do not disturb status display

The status of the Do Not Disturb function was displayed incorrectly if the status was changed during a set rework time.

System messages

In rare cases, there were erroneous system messages regarding the fan.

Web interface

Administration > Licences: In connection with the feature level, there were misleading displays.

Voice mail and fax boxes > Profiles > Configure > Call-specific behaviour: Recordings could not be enabled.

Improvements

Maximum Hold time after Announcement before answering

The previously fixed holding time of 8 minutes in the queue of a group can now be extended to up to 30 minutes. The value can be set separately according to groups: Groups > Phone numbers > Configure > Reachability > Maximum Hold time after Announcement before answering

Bug Fixes

APIPA

Even if the fixed IP address was switched off from the APIPA address range, the COMtrexx could be reached via this IP address.

Codecs

The Codec G.729 could not be used from internal telephones.

D1-Net

Incoming calls from the D1 net were no longer signalled.

Fax printer driver

Communication between fax printer driver and COMtrexx was not possible. This is fixed with this version in conjunction with version 1.4.4.3 of the fax printer driver.

Note: If the use of HTTPS was temporarily switched off as a workaround, this must be reversed. This must be done on each PC used in the dialogue of the fax printer driver and here in the COMtrexx: Administration > Network > Server service > Force HTTPS connection

Import Provider template

After changing certain settings and exporting, provider templates could no longer be imported under certain circumstances.

Ringing sequence

The ringing sequence linear - fixed - rotating - split group did not work correctly.

Number presentation

In countries without an area code, there could be problems with number transfer.

Announcement before answering

Announcement before answering was not played at the target of a call forwarding if announcement before answering was not also active at the forwarding party.

Connection setup

Connections with individual participants always broke off after a short time. Now improved handling of faulty ACK packets that reach the COMtrexx after modifications on the provider side.

Voicemail App COMfortel D series

When the voicemail app first accessed the COMtrexx, the voicemail boxes and messages were not displayed correctly.

In connection with the access of the voicemail app, problems could occur when accessing the web interface of the COMtrexx.

Voicemailbox: Save short messages

When this option was switched on, sibilant sounds were saved as a message after the caller hung up early.

Web interface

Administration > Maintenance > Message Configuration > Logo: A previously selected logo was no longer displayed when the page was called up again.

Administration > Network > Ports: The ports of the Auerswald Proxy was not displayed in the port view.

Special characters in passwords led to occasional problems.

Known bugs in version 2.0.0

Analogue fax machine

With some providers it is not possible to send fax messages in the local phone network. Workaround: Temporarily configure for the fax an analogue telephone and a user instead of an external device fax.

Fax printer driver

Communication between fax printer driver and COMtrexx is not possible. Workaround: Temporarily switch off the use of HTTPS. This must be done on each PC used in the dialogue of the fax printer driver and here in the COMtrexx: Administration > Network > Server service > Force HTTPS connection

General information

Update

After the update to version 2.0, we recommend you delete the browser cache so that all pages are displayed correctly.

New functions

Contact image display

For incoming calls, contact pictures of the callers can now be displayed on a COMfortel D-series telephone (COMfortel D-400/D-600, firmware version 2.6B or later).

Important: The contact image display is only available with feature level 3 or higher. If you want to use this function, please contact your dealer or system partner.

Call number-dependent ringtones

On telephones that can process the transmitted information (COMfortel D-series telephones, firmware version 2.6B or later), now it is possible to distinguish not only the call types but also the calling and called numbers on the basis of the ringtones.

Important: The transmission of the calling and called numbers is only available with feature level 3 or higher. If you want to use this function, please contact your dealer or system partner.

Improvements

Presence status

In addition to the BLF status the COMtrexx now sends the presence status of the user so that, for example, an extended status display is possible.

Provisioning

ws500x_template.xml: To ensure data transmission and thus ringing of the handsets, the transport protocol was changed to TCP per variable in the template of the COMfortel WS-500S/500M base stations: "$(sip.transportprotocol:WS500X)"

Remote Backup

Display of the last and next backup with periodic backups set.

Certificates

The certificats of the certificate authorities were updated and new ones added.

Telephoning

Under certain circumstances there were call disruptions in connection with COMfortel 1400/2600/3600 IP telephones.

Announcement before answering

With certain settings announcement before answering did not work when calls were forwarded to groups.
