Associating phones to users

By associating a phone to a user, you can easily filter the calls in "Replay Calls" Page, by selecting the respective agent node in the left-side tree. Association can be done by phone number, ip address, or mac address. We recommend you to use MACs because they are the most reliable.
Also, the phones associated to user and PIN from General tab are used as extensions and PIN in Phone Service menu in order to listen recordings or monitoring calls (see User Guide - Phone Service Menu).
Filtering by MACs does not work in WAN environments, where there are routers between the recorder and phones.

The Number Pattern match type uses _ (underline) for matching one character, and % (percent) for matching multiple characters.

 

 

Granting permissions

The values for each permission can be Inherit (keep the role permission), Allow or Deny.
