Hi everyone! I have two phone groups defined:/
"normal_phone",/ which defines my basic settings for all phones, and
/"snom320_admin_mode"/, which simply turns the admin mode on in a phone.
The default setting in SipX is for admin mode to be ON, but I turn it
OFF in /"normal_phone"/. I should therefore be able to apply
/"snom320_admin_mode"/ after /"normal_phone"/ to configure a phone with
my basic settings + admin mode ON. But it doesn't appear to work. When
I turn the admin mode OFF in a phone group, the web ui indicates that
the setting has been changed away from the SipX defaults. But when I
turn it on again, the web ui indictes that the setting is the same as
the SipX defaults and will therefore have no affect. Here is the chain
of events that I *_/expect/_* to happen:
1. SipX default: admin mode ON
2. Apply phone group /"normal_phone"/ (with admin mode OFF).
3. Result: admin mode OFF
4. Apply phone group /"//snom320_admin_mode//"/ (with admin mode ON).
5. Result: admin modeON
Here is the chain of events that _/*actually*/_ happens:
1. SipX default: admin mode ON
2. Apply phone group /"normal_phone"/ (with admin mode OFF).
3. Result: admin mode OFF
4. Apply phone group /"//snom320_admin_mode//"/ (admin mode same as
SipX default, so ignored).
5. Result: admin mode OFF
It seems to me that this is a fundamental problem with the way that
groups are implemented in SipX. Here are two possible alternatives that
I would suggest:
1. Provide a boolean for each setting that defines if the value in
the setting should take affect or not (don't calculate it based on
the SIpX default), or
2. Allow the selection of another group on which the current group
settings are based (like styles in word processors).
