SwitchVox
Telephony Integration
A note for configuration parameters:
- If you see a variable, for example on this document:
<dv-ext-num>. - This variable is used in multiple places, so it's important to make note of them.
- The variables on the SwtichVox configuration is up to the PBX technician to pick the best option to follow the rest of their PBX configuration.
- Then the DuVoice technician will need to know the information so that they can add the same parameters to the DuVoice server for integration.
