Multi-client capability
The innovaphone PBX was already able to
be used as a Hosted PBX before version 8.
However, Version 8 brings a new substantial
Hosted PBX feature: the so-called “virtualisa-
tion” of PBX systems and an intelligent mul-
ti-client capability. Multi-client capability now
enables one box to be used to operate vari-
ous virtual PBXs independently for multiple
clients. Virtual PBXs can be added or dele-
ted dynamically whilst the system is running
without needing to reboot the hardware. Eve-
ry single virtual PBX on the hardware base
works completely independently and can be
managed separately. As the various systems
all work autarkic on one box, each client can
use his own applications, his own music-on-
hold and own announcements.
Licenses are provided using floating licenses
from the master PBX. Each virtual TC instance
has an LDAP replicator for managing users.
The trunk line is provided over the master as
a PRI/BRI gateway. There is also the possibili-
ty of integrating a SIP provider at this point.
On the customer side, connection takes
place either over customer own IP networks,
VPN tunnel or over an internet access.
