SARK V4.0.0 Globals
Globals
The SARK globals panel is where we set system-wide variables which control aspects of the overall behaviour of the PBX. For convenience, the values are loosely grouped under 4 tabs, or sections, called; "General", "Services", "Call-Control" and "Admin". Aside from a few exceptions, most values can be left to default. You can get help for any particular variable by hovering your mouse over its heading.
- External IP Address - this is your Internet IP address. Asterisk puts this value into the SIP packets it sends. You will usually need to specify this if you wish to conduct SIP operations across the Internet.
- Country Code - Set the drop down to match your country
- Voicemail Instructions - when set to yes, the auto-attendant will give a more verbose introduction when it goes to voicemail.
- Delete voicemail after (days) - specify the number of days to keep voicemail before deleting it
- Conference type - specify simple or hosted conferencing
- Extension length - can be 3 or 4 but cannot be set/changed unless there are no extensions so you would normally do this only at system installation.
- Create extension ACL's? - if set to yes, the generator will automatically insert an ACL each time you create a new extension.
- Extension start number - lowest extension on this PBX
- Agent start - lowest agent number on this PBX
- Call recording system default - sets an overall default for call recording.
- System operator - sets a short key for the system operator (default is 0).
- Operator real extension - the actual operator extension or group.
