List

Accounts

To navigate to this page, in the main configuration menu select “Accounts” from the drop-down list, then choose the “List” menu item — the “Account List” page will open.

Main Window

The main window is divided into two parts:

• The top panel contains the management buttons “Add”, “Add Multiple”, “Add to Conference”, “Add to Group”, “Delete Selected”. The last three appear after selecting one or more accounts using the checkboxes.
• The table section contains filters, sorting options, and the list of accounts.

Filters

Filters allow you to quickly select the required accounts based on specified criteria, simplifying search and data management.

“List (icon)” – allows displaying 25, 50, or 100 records per page.
“Search” – searches by Number, Name, IP, Type, Group, or Email fields.
“Type” – account type: WS, SIP, H.323, Loop, LDAP.
“Group” – Any, No group, Specific group.
“Source” – Local, Any.
“Clear filter” – resets all filters to default values.

Sorting

The sorting function allows organizing the list of accounts by the selected column — “Number”, “Name”, “Status”, “Type”, or “Group”. This simplifies searching, viewing, and managing accounts by allowing quick access to the necessary records and organizing data in a convenient working order.

Add

To add an account, click the “Add” button in the upper-right part of the screen. The modal window that appears contains three tabs: “Main”, “Extended”, “Avatar”.
Then enter the account data.
To save the entered information, click the “Add” button.

“Main” Tab

Depending on the selected account type, the “Main” tab contains different settings.

  *Loop – participant connects as a subscriber of a remote server configured on the Gateways page (for example, a PBX subscriber, Lync/Skype for Business, Asterisk).

• “Password” – password for system login. Automatic generation is available.

• “The user must set the password himself” – when enabled, the user sets the password at first login.

• “Blocked” – a toggle that blocks access to the subscriber’s account on the server. This option does not block registration or calls.

• “Behind NAT” – enables/disables network address translation technology when connecting to the server.

“Extended” Tab

Depending on the selected account type, the “Extended” tab contains different settings.
