Recently, we’ve upgraded our transit network, bringing on additional carriers and peering to provide more capacity and better routes. As the next stage of this upgrade, we’ll be upgrading our entire core network starting with our Sydney facilities.
Melbourne, Sydney, and now Western Australia! We’re touring the country alongside NBN Co, introducing business nbn™ to MSPs. The time is now to learn about these options as more areas get the nbn™ ‘Ready For Service’ tick of approval.
We're excited to release our next version of our Internet Service Qualification tool which enables you more flexibility when ordering NBN services.
On top of the features you’ve come to know and love, partners will now have
After quite some time dealing with vCloud Director's flash interface I was pleased to discover that VMWare was seriously considering a complete rebuild into HTML5. Although the initial version was not entirely fully featured, it was a long needed change in style, speed and usability that flash interfaces seemed never to be able to achieve.
Now, we are pleased to introduce the latest installment the new HTML5 Tenant Interface in all its glory. From the first look I was very impressed but after giving it a good whirl I'm glad to say that it does not disappoint. It's the first time a competitor to the flash interface has given us real control.
Summary Steps
Register/deregister phone manually
Change SIP Transport protocol
Test extension on another phone or software phone
Test extension on different internet connection
PBX Registration Status
1. Log into PBX management portal for the organisation and verify whether the extension is registered or not.
This can be done when going to an organisation and then to a specific user. Open the actual extensions shows little bit more information (IP address, expiration).
2. Phone should be online (reachable) in normal conditions. If the phone status says "None registered" as per the image above, phone is failing to communicate with the exchange which means we have to investigate on the phone side.
IP Phone Registration Status
3. Verify PBX is reachable using ping
4. Log in into phone web interface and check account status on main page. Status bar should be green saying YES on SIP registration.
This is first, and basic form of verification. Basic because phone can sometimes say registered, but it actually is not. For this reason, we have to go to settings and force it to do so.
5. Go to 'Accounts' in the main menu and select the affected account.
The radio button 'Account Active' gives you option to manually register and deregister the phone. Click 'No' and save the setting Status of the account should change and should turn red. Once completed, click 'Yes' to make phone to register. Verify status of the extension on PBX.
6. If phone still fails to register, go to affected account settings, select 'SIP Settings' and then 'Basic Settings'.
Change SIP Transport setting to UDP or TCP, depending on the existing setting. Transport protocol may be affected by router NAT setting, SIP ALG and some other factors. Once protocol is changed, phone will deregister and register again.
7. If all above steps failed, try to register extension on a software phone on the same internet connection. If this fails, try it using 4G or different internet connection. Also, verify your credentials are correct. If not sure, reset it via PBX management portal.
8. If none of these steps worked, please, open a support ticket with us, so we can assist.

Remotely accessing your servers and workstations through terminal services or RDP is an easy method of doing your job from a remote location, or gaining access to specific published applications that have been published on your servers. However, without properly investing in securing these types of RDP connections, you could be compromising the security and integrity of your servers, the data on them, and the services they’re providing.
