About this Administrator's Guide
The QX IP PBX Manual is divided into three parts:
Manual-I: Installation Guide gives step-by-step instructions to provision the QX IP PBX and configure the phone extensions with the Epygi SIP Server.
After successfully configuring the QX IP PBX, users will be able to make SIP phone calls to remote QX IP PBX devices, make local calls to the PSTN and to access the Internet from devices connected to the LAN.
Manual-II: Administrator's Guide explains all QX IP PBX management menus available for administrators only. It includes a list of all System Default
Values.
Manual-III: Extension User's Guide explains all QX IP PBX management menus available for extension users. A list of all call codes can be found there,
too.
This guide contains many example screen illustrations. Since QX IP PBXs offer a wide variety of features and functionality, the example screens shown may not appear exactly the same for your particular QX IP PBX as they appear in this manual. The example screens are for illustrative and explanatory purposes, and should not be construed to represent your own unique environment.
QX IP PBX’s Graphical Interface describes to the QX IP PBX's graphical user interface and explains all recurrent buttons.
Administrator’s Menus explains the Administrator's management pages according to the menu structure shown on the main page of the QX IP PBX
management.
Appendix: PBX Services for QX IP PBX’s Administrator explains PBX features for administrator accessible from the handset.
Appendix: System Default Values lists all factory defaults.
Appendix: Moderator's Me nus explains all menus that can be accessed and configured by conference moderators. (Applicable if the Conference Server
and/or the Video Conferencing features are activated on the system.)

QX50/QX200/QX2000 Manual II: Administrator’s Guide
QX IP PBX’s Graphical Interface
Dashboard – Administrator’s Main Page
When the administrator logs in, the Epygi QX Management page is displayed with a table of active calls (including information about call peers, call duration and start time) at the startup. The number of total active calls is displayed below the table.
The button Terminate next to each active call is used to terminate the corresponding call.

Configuration, while selecting Ethernet will bring up the WAN IP Configuration page.
The Uplink Configuration compone nts:
The WAN Interface Protocol radio buttons are used to choose the protocol depending on the requirements of the ISP (Internet Service Provider):
PPPoE (available only for QX50/QX200) - turns on
the PPP over an Ethernet connection.
PPTP (available only for QX50/QX200) – turns on
the Point to Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) interface used for the connection between QX IP PBX and ADSL modem. A fixed IP address configuration is needed in this case.
Ethernet - turns on the Ethernet connection
The WAN Interface Bandwidth settings allow the specification of the upstream and downstream speeds in kbit/s, helping to assure the quality of IP calls. An IP call looses the voice quality if there is no available bandwidth. When approaching the limits of bandwidth capacity, another IP call will be declined.
The bandwidth provided by the ISP has to be specified in the text fields Upstream Speed and Downstream Speed. The default entry in both fields is 100000, the maximum bandwidth of a 100 Mb Ethernet. You may see the required bandwidth in the chapter
The Min Data Rate text field requires the amount of upstream bandwidth that ought to remain for data applications even if voice applications use the entire available upstream bandwidth. The value selected here needs to be smaller than the upstream bandwidth and is measured in kbit/s.

Redundancy
Redundancy feature is used to increase QX IP PBX device availability using second QX IP PBX as a backup unit. This requires two units running the same firmware version and connected to each other through Ethernet or LAN ports, depending on the device model.
The idea of redundancy is to ensure uninterrupted functio nality of the QX IP PBX. The Redundancy Settings should be configured on both QX IP PBXs. One of the QX IP PBXs is configured as a master, the second one as a backup unit.
Please Note: To setup a redundant network, you should first startup the master device with all attached IP phones and other devices, make sure it works
normally and then startup the backup device.
If the master device becomes unavailable, which can be caused by power loss, reboot or network malconfiguration, the second QX IP PBX becomes automatically available and starts to run as a master device. Depending on the configuration, the second QX IP PBX can remain master or go to the backup mode once the first device becomes available again.
Attention: During failover procedure all active calls will be disconnected and the system will be out of service during 2-5 minutes (depending on the
number of IP phones connected to the system), which is needed for running the applications and rebooting the phones. If there are IP phones in the network that are not auto configured by QX IP PBX (IP phones not supported by Epygi) or IP phones with the changed login name and password, you will need to reboot them manually. After failover the license keys, firmware and language pack are not being transferred from the master to backup QX IP PBX therefore, so make sure both QX IP PBXs are configured identically in the redundant network before enabling redundancy mechanism.
When you login to the device which runs in a backup mode, only Redundancy Settings are available. All other GUI configuration settings are non editable and automatically synchronized with the master device's configuration.
To ensure the interaction between the master and slave devices, corresponding configuration should be done in the Redundancy Settings on both devices.
Enable Redundancy
Active Device Mode drop down list is only present on backup
device and is used to adjust the behavior of the backup device during unavailability of master device. When Active is selected, backup device will become master once the original master device became unavailable. When Passive is selected, backup device stops its synchronization with the master device and will not take over the control ev en when the original master got failed unless Swap
Master Device button is pressed on the master QX IP PBX. The Passive mode is used for firmware update or language pack
updates on master device when a reboot is required. After the reboot of master device, the Active Device Mode on the backup device should be changed back to Active to restore the redundant network functionality.
Redundant Group ID text field unique ID (values 1 and up) identifying master and backup devices. The same value must be set on both QX IP P BXs.
Virtual IP Address text fields require the virtual IP address of the device where the configuration is done. Virtual Subnet Mask text fields require the
virtual subnet mask of the device where the configuration is done. These two parameters identify an alternate IP network of the LAN interface which stays unchanged when the device switches its mode (from master to bac kup or vice versa). The configuration and voice data synchronization daemon uses this IP address to communicate with the second QX IP PBX.
Redundant Device Virtual IP Address text fields require an alternate IP address of the LAN interface of the second QX IP PBX.
Synchronization Interval text field requires the period of time (in seconds) between two consecutive configuration and voice data synchronizations fro m
master to backup device.
Backup Device GUI Access Port text field (available only for QX50/QX200) is present on the master device only and requires the port used for accessing the GUI of the backup device through master.
Swap Master Device button is used for manual swapping of functionality of master and backup devices. This action will result in rebooting the current master. After rebooting the current master device will start running in a backup mode. Switching the backup to master starts all applications on QX IP PBX and causes all IP phones to reboot. The swapping takes around 1 minute however another 1-3 minutes are required in order to reboot all the IP phones connected to redundant system. If backup device before swapping was in passive mode then after swapping the master will start running as backup in passive mode, otherwise if it was in active mode then master will start running as backup in active mode.
Download system logs link is only present on backup device and is used to download system logs to the local PC as a *.tar archive file. These logs can then be used by the
Epygi Technical Support Office to determine the problem that has occurred on your QX IP P BX.

The Change Extension Length page is used to define the extension settings applicable to all extensions on the QX IP PBX. This page disappears once being saved.
The Change Extension Length page consists of a radio­button selection:
Leave Current Length radio-button selection is used to leave the current length of extensions on the QX IP PBX. Per default the extensions
length o n the QX50/QX200 is 3 and o n the QX2000 is 4. In front of this selection, the actual configured length of extensions is displayed.
Change Length radio-button selection is used to change the actual length of extensions on the QX IP PBX. This selection enables the following
information to be defined:
The Extension Length drop-down list requires you to choose the length of the extensions on the QX IP PBX. This number will apply to all existing extensions on the QX IP PBX as well as to any newly created extensions. The length of the extension can be 3, 4 or 5.
The Extension Prefix text field is used to define a prefix with which all existing extensions on the QX IP PBX as well as to any newly created extensions should start. The prefix cannot start with the digits 0 or 9, otherwise an error message appears.
Please Note: By saving the settings on the Change Extension Length page, all existing extensions will lose the custom voice messages and voice mails in
the voice mailbox. The device will be rebooted. You will not be automatically redirected to the login page, so you need to access it manually again when reboot ends. After the reboot, the Change Extension Length page will disappear and the Extensions Management page will be displayed. The Change Extension Length page will not appear again unless the default configuration settings are restored on the device.
Two types of user extensions, active and inactive, can be created on the QX IP PBX. Active extensions are those that are attached to a line, can place and receive calls and use available telephony services. Inactive extensions are those that are not attached to the line. They can use some available telephony services but they cannot place and receive calls. Instead, inactive extensions have a voice mailbox available to store the messages from callers.
QX50/QX200 has two available FXS lines.
Attendant extensions are dedicated to the IVR system on the QX IP PBX. These extensions are used by callers to reach QX IP PBX’s users and use the remote access and call relay services. It is possible to create Auto Attendants with the custom scenarios. By default, QX IP PBX has one Auto Attendant extension (00) which is undeletable.
Attention: QX50 is limited to 200 extensions, QX200 is limited to 400 extensions and QX2000 is limited to 2400 extensions.
The Extensions table is a list of all extensions and their parameters.

Display Na me is an optional parameter used to recognize the caller. Usually the display name appears on the called party’s phone display when a call is made or a voice mail is sent.
Password requires a password for the new extension. The extension password may only contain digits. If non-numeric symbols are entered, the “Incorrect Password: no symbol characters allowed” error will prevent creating the extension.
If you are unable to define a strong password, press Generate Password to use one of system defined strong passwords. The Password field is checked against its strength and you may see how strong is your inserted password right below that field.
Confirm Password requires a password confirmation. If the input is not corresponding to the one in the Extension Password field, the “Incorrect Password confirm” error will appear.
Attached Line lists all free lines an extension may be attached.
Please Note: Extensions cannot be detached from the line if the SIP Remote Extension service is enabled on it. To detach the extension from the line,
disable the SIP Remote Extension service on the extension first.
Use Kickback checkbox enables the Kickback service on the extension for the blind call transfer. When the extension transfers the call to the other extension and if there is no answer from the destination side, the call will automatically get back to the extension who initiated the transfer instead of getting into the destination's voice mailbox or being disconnected.
Allow Call Relay enables the current extension to be used to access the Call Relay service in the QX IP PBX’s Auto Attendant. It is recommended to define a proper and no n-empty password when enabling this feature in order to protect the Call Relay service from an unauthenticated access.
GUI Login Allowed checkbox enables the current extension to be used to access the QX IP PBX via WEB interface by extension name and password.
3pcc/Click2Dial Access Allowed checkbox enables the current extension to be used with applications based on QX IP PBX 3PCC interface and QX IP PBX

With the Show on Public Directory checkbox enabled, the details of the corresponding extension will be displayed in the User Settings table on the Main Page of the Extension’s Web Management (accessed by the extension’s login, see Manual III – Extension User’s Guide). Besides this, the details of the extension will be displayed in the Public Directories on the snom and Aastra SIP phones. Leave this checkbox unselected if the extension is reserved or not used, or when the extension serves as an intermediate unit for call forwarding, etc.
The Percentage of Total Memory drop down list allows you to select the space for the extension’s voice mails and uploaded/recorded greetings and blocking messages. The maximum value in the drop down list is equal to the maximum available space for voice messages on QX IP PBX . Whe n editing an existing extension and decreasing the voice mailbox size, the system will check the present amount of voice mails in the mailbox of the extension. If the memory required for these voice mails exceeds the size entered, the system will suggest either to remove all voice messages from the extension’s voice mailbox or to select a larger size so that the existing voice messages can be stored in the mailbox.
The Enable Rin ging Simulation checkbox is available on virtual extensions only and enables extra ring tones played to the caller before the voice mail of the called virtual extension gets activated. If this checkbox is not enabled, the voice mailbox will get activated immediately the call arrives.

This page provides two functions. It allows an extension on the QX IP PBX to register to an external SIP server. The registration to the external SIP server
(e.g. ITSP) is usually required before the server will allow the call to be received. This page also allows for incoming SIP calls to ring an extension. Upon
receiving a SIP Invite from an external SIP server, the QX IP PBX will look to match the called number with the settings in the User Name/DID Number
QX50/QX200/QX2000; (SW Version 6.0.x) 27
User Name/DID Number
name needs to be unique on the external SIP server. This field length is limited to 32 symbols.
Password indicates the password for the extension registration on a SIP server.
Confirm Password is used to confirm the password. If the entered password does not correspond to the one entered in the Password field, the error message “The passwords do not matc h. Please try again” will appear.
SIP Server indicates the address of the SIP server. The field is not limited regarding symbol usage or length. It can be either an IP address such as
192.168.0.26 or a host address such as sip.epygi.com.

SIP Port indicates the port number to connect to the SIP server. The SIP server port may only contain digit values, otherwise the error message “SIP Server Port is incorrect” will be displayed when applying the extension settings. If the SIP server port is not specified, QX IP PBX will access the SIP server through the default port 5060.
Registration on SIP Server enables the SIP server registration option. If the extension has already been registered on an SIP server, its IP address will be displayed in brackets.
Please Note: If the ITSP does not require each DID to uniquely register to the external SIP server, then only enter the DID number in the User Name/DID
Number field. The other fields are not required.
3. SIP Advanced Settings
This group is used to configure advanced SIP settings (Outbound Proxy, Secondary SIP Server and Outbound Proxy for the Secondary SIP Server settings and to define other SIP server specific settings).
The SIP Outbound proxy is an SIP server where all the SIP requests and other SIP messages are transferred. Some SIP servers use an outbound proxy server to escape restrictions of NAT. For example, Free World Dialup service uses an Outbound Proxy server. If an Outbound proxy is specified for an extension, all SIP calls originating from that extension are made through that outbound proxy, i.e., all requests are sent to that outbound proxy, even those made by Speed Calling.
The Secondary SIP Server acts as an alternative SIP registration server when the primary SIP Registration Server is inaccessible. If the connection with the primary SIP server fails, QX IP PBX will automatically start sending SIP messages to the Secondary SIP Server. It will switch back to the primary SIP server as soon as the connection is reestablished.
Authentication User Name requires an identification parameter to reach the SIP server. It should be provided by the SIP service provider and can be requested for some SIP servers only. For others, the field should be left empty.
Send Keep-alive Messages to Proxy
Timeout
indicates the timeout between two attempts for the SIP registration server accessibility verification. If no reply is received from the primary SIP server within this timeout, the Secondary SIP server will be contacted. When the primary SIP server recovers, SIP packets will resume being sent to it.
The RTP Priority Level drop down list is used to select the priority (low, medium or high) of the RTP packets sent from a corresponding extension. RTP packets with higher priority will be sent first in case of heavy traffic.
The Do Not Use SIP Old Hold Method checkbox enables the new recommended method of call hold in SIP, in which case the hold request is indicated with the "a=sendonly" media attribute, rather than with the IP address of 0.0.0.0 used before. The checkbox should be enabled if the remote party does not recognize hold requests initiated fro m the QX IP PBX.
A group of Host address and Port text fields respectively require the host address (IP address or the host name) and the port numbers of the Outbound Proxy, Secondary SIP Server and the
Outbound Proxy for the Secondary SIP Server. These settings are
4. Remote Settings
This group is used to configure SIP Remote Extension functionality. This is an advanced telephony feature that allows QX IP PBX users to remotely operate QX IP PBX. Users need to register a hardware or software SIP phone on the QX IP PBX by defining the QX IP PBX’s global IP address and an appropriate Username/Password. A registered SIP Remote phone can act fully as a phone connected locally to QX IP PBX, i.e. it can use QX IP PBX’s PBX features, place and receive calls, access voice mails, etc.
The Enable checkbox activates the SIP Remote Extension’s functionality.
Please Note: SIP Remote Extension functionality may be enabled only for active (attached to an onboard FXS or IP line) extensions.
Identification parameters used by the remote SIP device for registration on the QX IP PBX should be defined in the Username and Password text fields. They should match on both QX IP PBX and SIP phone for a successful connection. The Password field is chec ked against its strength and you may see how strong is your inserted password right below that field. To achieve the well protected strong password minimum 8 characters of letters in upper and lower case, symbols and numbers should be used. If you are unable to define a strong password, press Generate Password to use one of system defined strong passwords.
Line Appearance text field requires a number of simultaneous calls supported by the SIP phone.
When the Enable RTP Proxy checkbox is selected, incoming and outgoing RTP streams to and from the remote SIP phone will be routed through QX IP PBX. When the checkbox is not selected, RTP packets will be moving directly between peers.

Otherwise, when the remote SIP phone is unregistered, incoming calls will be routed to the line extension it is attached to. When this checkbox is not selected, all incoming calls will be routed to the remote SIP phone only if it is registered. Otherwise, if the remote SIP phone is unregistered, calls will be forwarded to the extension’s voice mailbox.
The Symmetric RTP checkbox should be selected when the remote extension is located behind the symmetrical NAT.
The Show Hot Desking Settings and H ide Hot Desking Settings links are correspondingly used to show or hide the Hot Desking settings on this page.
The Enable Hot Desking Capability checkbox is used to enable the
The Hot Desking Automatic Logout section is used to configure Hot Desking functionality expiration on the corresponding extension. This may be useful when someone who logged in to the public phone with this extensio n forgot to log out after using it. With this option enabled, once the expiration time arrives, the extension will automatically log out from the public phone.
The following options are available:
Hot Desking feature on the corresponding remote extension.
Never – the extension will never expire and will remain logged in to the public phone.
After the defined period of time – requires the period after which the extension will automatically log out from the public phone.
At the certain moment – requires the moment (hour and minute) when the extension will automatically log out from the public phone.
5. Call Queue Settings
This group is used to configure the Call Queue service that allows multiple incoming calls to be kept in the queue when being on the line and enables the calls to be answered in the order they have been received. This feature can be also used within
Enable
Receptionist Management (see below for more details).
The Call Queue Size text field requires the length of the call queue. This is the maximum number of calls that will be accepted into the queue and kept on hold while the extension user is on a call. If a maximum number of calls are already held in the call queue, the next incoming call will be routed to the extension’s Voice Mail, if enabled, or will be disconnected.
Please Note: By configuring Call Queue size, Call Forwarding if
Busy and Voice Mail telephony services will not take effect on the corresponding extension until the call queue is not filled. These telephony services will affect only the calls out of the call queue.
The Max Calls Presented to Extension text field requires the maximum number of active calls on the line. For example, if 1 is configured in this field and the extension is in use, the next incoming call will go to the call queue. If 2 is configured in this field and extension is in use, the next incoming call alert will be heard in the background (if Call Waiting service is enabled on the corresponding extension) and the extension will hold the first call to answer the second one or they can be joined for a call conference. However, the next incoming call will again go to the call queue.
Enable Redirection Timeout checkbox is used to enable the call redirection to the other destination after some time spent in the
Call Queue Message Repetition Count text field requires the number of call queue messages (played during the caller is in the queue) after w hich the call in the queue will be automatically redirected to the destination defined below.
