Switchvox SMB 5.9 Release Notes

Enhancements

The Switchboard includes a new WebRTC feature-preview: a Video Call panel in the Switchboard. The panel offers a WebRTC video communication between two Switchvox users.

If both people are using the supported web browser (Chrome 35.x), and have an attached camera and microphone, a video call can be initiated from a Phonebook entry in the Switchboard. For details, see the knowledgebase article.

Issues Resolved

• To address CVE-2014-6271 (the 'shellshock' bug), bash packages are now updated. There is no specific indication that this could be exploited in Switchvox but the packages are updated as a precaution. 
• High memory usage generated under specific circumstances has been reduced.
• Switching to E1 for a telephony card now correctly manages the channel count.
• A phone extension now correctly receives an email message when an inbound fax to the extension is not saved in the voicemail mailbox.
• Alert Notification emails are no longer sent against a false alarm of a problem storing voicemail.
• Converged phones are now correctly logging into a queue as the phone's main extension. 
• In IVRs, variables containing whitespace can now be concatenated without truncating the string.
• Calls using the Extend API call creation methods and Switchvox Mobile App for smartphones no longer fail when using certain SIP Providers.
• Round robin voicemail forwarding is now forwarding messages in the correct order.
• The Salesforce panel in the Switchboard now handles long Salesforce usernames.
