The ConnecttoTeams PBX Connector is middleware that allows you to easily link the native Microsoft Teams softphone to a Vodia PBX.
Once you have registered the Microsoft Office Tenant Enterprise through the ConnecttoTeams PBX Connector (steps 1 through 5 in the Setup Guide), you will need to to set up the Vodia PBX per the instructions below:
PBX SETTINGS
On the PBX Setting page please complete the required fields seen in the image below with the fields identified in Table 1.
Field | Selection | Description |
---|---|---|
PBX Type | Vodia | PBX Manufacturer |
PBX Location | Name this something descriptive, such as "downtown office" or "headquarters." | Some enterprises have multiple PBXs. Naming them helps reduce confusion. |
PBX Outbound Transport Type | UDP | There are multiple options in this dropdown, but Vodia uses UDP. |
PBX DNS Lookup Type | Host | There are multiple options in this dropdown, but Vodia uses Host. |
PBX SIP Domain | This is found in the upper left-hand corner of the Vodia portal. | |
PBX SIP Domain Proxy | Same as the PBX SIP Domain | Some PBXs use a domain proxy. Vodia does not. |
Voicemail Feature Code | This controls the feature code sent to the PBX to invoke check voicemail. | Vodia's default is *62 so this will be auto-populated, but change it if your enterprise is using a custom code. |
PBX SIP Domain Proxy Port | 5060 | If you are using a non-standard port enter it in this field. |
Codecs | Leave as default | ConnecttoTeamssupports multiple codecs. Vodia uses G.711. |
