First login and the panel
What you receive when your switch is ready
Section titled “What you receive when your switch is ready”We send you one message with three things. Keep it; the rest of this guide refers to it.
| What | Looks like | Used for |
|---|---|---|
| Panel address | a web address starting with https:// |
signing in to the panel |
| Your login | an email and a password | the first sign-in |
| Switch SIP address | a host name or an IP address, with its SIP port (usually 5060, UDP) |
what your gateways, carriers and customers send calls to |
In this guide, “the switch address we sent you” always means the third line.
Sign in
Section titled “Sign in”- Open the panel address we sent you when your switch was ready.
- Enter the email and password from the same message.
- You land on Live.
Every login is a full administrator. Anyone you give a login to can change and delete everything, including prices and billing. Give logins only to people you trust with money.
The panel at a glance
Section titled “The panel at a glance”The rail on the left has seven sections. Some sections have several pages, shown as tabs along the top.
| Section | What it is for |
|---|---|
| Live | Calls up right now, today’s ASR, ACD and margin, and a Needs you list of things that want your attention |
| Calls | Every call, one row each, with the reason it ended. Click a row to see the whole story of the call |
| Customers | The customers who send you calls (the panel also calls them originators) |
| Routes | Your SIM ports and SIP carriers (the panel also calls them terminators) and your routing groups |
| Rules | Automation rules, what they did today, and number lists |
| Money | Rates, billing accounts, margin and invoices |
| Settings | Users, CallXML scripts and the switch’s own settings |
Three shortcuts
Section titled “Three shortcuts”- Ctrl K (⌘ K on a Mac) opens search. Type a page name, such as
terminators, and press Enter. Paste a phone number and it opens Calls filtered on that number. - ⓘ next to any setting explains it.
- The sun/moon button switches between the light and dark theme.
The built-in Guide page
Section titled “The built-in Guide page”The panel has its own Guide page (Ctrl K → guide). Its first-setup checklist ticks itself as you add your first port, routing group, rate and customer, so it always shows what is left to do.
