MSS V4 is updated (build 20110831) to support following features:
(1) Store CDR into database if MySQL database is active.
(2) In prepaid services, such as calling card, caller prepaid and so on, “one-time fee” is supported. This means the fee will be reduced from balance immediately one time when the call is answered.
We upgrade cloud-miniSipServer to support “Dial plan” features. Customers can use these features to control the calls very flexibly. When you sign in your account, you will get “Dial plan” features in command list at the left side .
And the trial duration of each call for trial accounts has been upgraded from 30 seconds to 60 seconds according to most customers’ requirements.
Please enjoy it and have a good day!
We are often asked this question about audio codec or video calls. Some customers want to confirm whether miniSIPServer can work well with their SIP phones/clients who can support several audio codecs or video calls.
We often answer that it depends on their own SIP phones/clients. miniSIPServer, not matter local-miniSIPServer or cloud-miniSIPServer, doesn’t care media codec by default.
Why we say that?
Please have a look at following figure which describes a basic media process model of miniSIPServer in a normal basic call.
From this figure, we can see:
(1) miniSIPServer only controls call signals.
(2) Media stream is processed by the clients themselves.
This model will reduce the work-load of the server since all media streams are bypass server, so it is unnecessary for the server to support several media codecs.
But in some service scenarios, miniSIPServer need play audio to the SIP phones. For example, in auto-attendant or calling card services, miniSIPServer need prompt audio announcement and collect user input information. Obviously, miniSIPServer is required to support audio codecs in these scenarios.
That’s right. If miniSIPServer need process audio stream, it can support two audio codecs: G711a (PCMA) and G711u (PCMU).
By the way, after playing audio stream, the final media stream will be processed still in end-to-end model. Please refer to following media model of miniSIPServer for these scenarios:
When some customers use miniSipServer cloud ( for local minisipserver, the same) to process their voice mail, but they are often confused why cannot receive voice mail in their email box.
In fact, we have an online document to describe how to use voice mail feature. Please refer to:
http://www.myvoipapp.com/docs/mss_services/voice_mail/index.html
For MSS cloud, there is a little difference. First, MSS cloud doesn’t support MWI (message waiting indication), so it can only send voice messages to your email address. Sometimes, customers often forget to configure SMTP server information which is necessary for MSS cloud to send your voice mail, or they often forget to cofigure email address of specific extensions.
So let’s describe more details about these. Before this, I assume that you have signin into your MSS cloud account. If not, please sign-up one.
Step 1: configure SMTP server information
Please look at the figure. You need click “system information” linker, then fill your SMTP information there. By the way, for Gmail accounts, they are always required to configure secure connection.
If SMTP information are all right, MSS will use it to send voice mail.
Step 2: configure email address of extension
Please click “local users” linker and select or add one extension to edit. For voice mail feature, you must configure “eMail address” to make MSS cloud know where the voice mail should be sent to.
Of course, you also need configure “voice mail” service right to this local user / extension.
So after that, for no-answer incoming calls, MSS will prompt the caller party to leave messages and save/mail them to the user’s email address.
