VPN
From PBXes
[edit] VPN Service
If you want to hide all communication from your local network provider you can dial into our VPN service. All data packets will be encapsulated into a tunnel ending in our data center from where they enter your PBX or pass into public Internet. Configuration is as follows:
VPN type | PPTP |
VPN name | your choice |
VPN server | www#.pbxes.com
For # see URL line after logging into PBXes with browser |
Enable encyrption | yes |
DNS search domains | leave empty |
Username | <account name>-<extension no.>
e.g. pamsoft-200 |
Password | pbxes |
Please note:
- Minutes connected to VPN service will be added to your monthly bandwidth usage. Free Accounts allow to be connected for more than a day. For up to a few days a Premium Account would be OK, but regular usage requires a PRO Account which has no bandwidth limitation.
- VPN connections may be blocked by some network providers. Wireless LANs often do not route the underlying protocol for PPTP.
- Access to PBXes over VPN will only work reliable over TCP protocol. This is the default setting within Sipdroid.
- While connected you can only make and receive calls. To browser or mail, VPN needs to be disconnected.
