Bug Fixes

  • Some configuration files had been created with wrong permisions during the softwre upgrade to v.5.1.18. As a result, it was not possible to apply the configuration changes via the Web interface. This applies to v5.1.18 only. 
  • Some PEA destinations were invalid – those destinations were removed.
  • Some invalid dialing patterns caused infinite loops. These invalid dialing options were removed.
  • Call forward destinations were deleted during configuration reload (apply configuration) if Call forward was set to Disabled.
