Configuration Changes

PBX Object

The Object type for a physical PBX is changed from Node Object to PBX Object. So now it exists a Node Object (for the numbering node Tree ) and a PBX Object (for the PBX Tree).

The Ldap Qiuckdial Object is merged with the Directory Search Object, see Reference8:Administration/PBX/Objects/LDAP Quickdial

Phone Display

Please be in mind that the complete Phone ringing display for all innovaphone IP Phones (including the IP72) with V8 changes, see Reference8:Phone_Ringing_Screen.

Known Problems

H323 EFC encoding changed

Starting with V8 H323 EFC encoding is changed as described in the bug note Support:DVL-Hotfixes#coding_of_H.323_EFC_wrong. It results in not ringing V6,V7 phones, if called by V8 PBX.

Solution: Pre-V8 devices must be updated to recent V6 or V7 version, to be compatible to V8.

In case no update to recent V6 or V7 is possible, following configuration change must be done on the pre-V7 device:

config change H323 /fix 1
