Mike - I think you point out an important feature of sipXecs that many people don't find - the line configuration. I suspect many don't know that you can select each line on a phone and have a separate configuration on it. I personally didn't realize this for quite a while.
By selecting the line, you can disable it as a choice for voicemail, so that you can have true one button voicemail retrieval when you have multiple lines, you can select the ring tone for the line, etc. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Michael Picher Sent: Wednesday, July 06, 2011 8:37 AM To: Discussion list for users of sipXecs software Subject: Re: [sipx-users] Distinct Ringtones for Internal and External Calls I use distinctive ring and create inbound call extensions on answering position phones. For each line you can set a different ring tone. With multiple lines on a phone, go into the phone, click on the inbound line and then the registration menu item to the left, then change the label and ring type to whatever you want.

One thing I think would be really useful and would love to see implemented with regard to distinctive ringtones is a way to set a distinctive tone per user / ring group / incoming gateway - Many users coming from basic digital keyphone systems have specific tones implemented depending on whether a call is coming from particular PSTN lines / an internal caller / door phone etc and its often difficult loosing that functionality during a conversion. Given that the basis for distinctive ring has already been done, how much work would it be to implement something like this? BTW, is there any sort of Asterisk-style bounty system for sipX?

Then sent the profile to the phone and restarted the device? On Wed, Jul 6, 2011 at 10:47 AM, Alex Brown <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all, > > We are using Polycom 560 and 650 phones.
