Feature Enhancement in Firmware Version 7.5.5b

Display of Name and Extension for BLF Keys

A parameter, <BLF Label Display Mode> is added to display both name and extension for Broadsoft BLF keys. The default display value is "Name," and the possible display values are "Name/Ext/Both".

Note The parameter can be configured via phone UI also.

When the parameter is set to “Both”:

- The phone alternates between name and extension in 5-seconds’ interval if BLF is configured on the line keys.

- The phone shows both name and extension if BLF is configured on the side car keys.

- The phone renders both name and extension in a single line using the selected font. If the space is not enough, it successively tries smaller-sized fonts. If it fails even with 8 points, then it renders name and extension in two lines.

Display of Dialed Digits

The phone is configured to show the digits entered when a call is connected or is proceeding.

A new parameter, <Show DTMF Digits When Connected>, is introduced to select the expected behavior options, which is in Admin Login > Advanced > Voice > Phone.

The options are "No"/"Yes"/"Masked."

- If 'No' is selected, no digits are displayed.

- If 'Yes' is selected, most recently dialed digits (up to 15) are displayed.

- If 'Masked' is selected, it behaves like 'Yes', except the digits are masked with ‘ * ’s.

- Attacks that occur on your network, such as a Denial of Service attack

To reduce or eliminate any adverse effects to the devices, schedule administrative network tasks during a time when the devices are not being used or exclude the devices from testing.
