PBX Services
The OctopusIP IP-PBX Server provides Real-Time Signalling services. Some of these services were implemented in the legacy telephony using "phone switching stations" also called PBX (Private Branch Exchange), thus the name of this OctopusIP IP-PBX component.
The OctopusIP IP-PBX Server is based upon Communigate Pro, one of the best Real-time Messaging Servers available today. Links in this document will take you to other parts of the Communigate Pro documentation.
If the PBX Service is enabled for your Account, you can use the WebUser Interface to manage your PBX service settings.
The OctopusIP IP-PBX PBX functionality is completely customizable. Each installation can have a different set of "PBX applications", with completely different set of services provided. This section describes the "stock" applications included into the OctopusIP IP-PBX software package.
The OctopusIP IP-PBX PBX functionality requires a Groupware-type License Key. Without that License Key, the trial-version reminder message is periodically played for all media sessions terminated within OctopusIP IP-PBX.
