How to Access

1

Virtual Landline Office Web can be accessed in one of two ways: 1. Directly navigate to https:///webphone.
2. Or, click on the direct link in the Portal menu under Apps.
The ability to see this link in the Portal and the name of the link are both managed by the configs below:

Opening Multiple Tabs
When a duplicate web phone tab is opened, the old tab will display this warning: “Virtual Landline Office Web was opened elsewhere”. The new tab should take over.
The exception is when a call is actively taking place on the old tab. In that case, the old tab will remain active, and the new tab will display a duplicate session warning.
This feature works while using the same browser. It does not work when using an incognito window or different browsers.
Virtual Landline Office Web was opened elsewhere
To continue using Virtual Landline Office Web here, close the newly opened browser window. After closing, you may need to refresh this window.

Navigation
There are many buttons in Virtual Landline Office Web and this section seeks to explain ones on the home page. For buttons related to placing and receiving calls, refer instead to the “Ill. Features” section of this article.
Right Side of the Page
In the upper-right hand corner of the page, there are 2 buttons in :
· Language selection (globe button): Use the dropdown selection to customize WebPhone UI language. This requires additional configuration:
· Agent status (headset button): Its button is a headset that changes color depending on status, and it also displays the agent’s status. A red headset indicates the agent is offline, and a green headset indicates the agent is online.
· registration status (phone button): This button indicates whether the device is registered or not. A green phone indicates that the device is registering.

English (United States) @ ·

@

Left Side of the Page In the upper-left hand corner of the page, the following buttons can be found:

· Agent status (headset button):
this button is located on the left-side of the page. Its button is a headset that changes color depending on status, and it also displays the agent’s status. A red headset indicates the agent is offline, and a green headset indicates the agent is online.
· Avatar button: This button will be your gravatar if configured; otherwise it will
default to the logged in user’s initials. Clicking on the button will open up the user profile in WebPhone. The two badges on this button indicate:
o presence badge: (phone icon) green means the logged in user is online; red means the logged in user is busy or on a call; grey means the logged in user is
offline prior to v44 and in v44+, the badge will be hidden instead
o chat badge: (messaging icon) blue means the logged in user’s chat presence is
online; an offline status hides this badge
· User Status message: (quoted text) the placeholder user status message is “set a
status message”; if the user changes their Agent Status to “break”, then the User Status message will update to the words “break” (a “lunch” Agent Status will change the User Status message to lunch, meeting to meeting, and so on). The User Status message can be edited at any time by clicking directly on the message and typing in the resulting text box. Note that for the Agent Status and User Status message to sync, a page refresh may be necessary.

Microphone Request
All Virtual Landline Office versions request microphone access. This a browser permission and can be later disabled in browser settings. v44+ will additionally allow users to select their microphone after allowing access. Microphone selection is also available for all versions under the “Settings” sidebar.
Audio Output
This is a v44+ permission that is prompted for first-time users. Set the audio output selection and default volume level at this time. Microphone selection is also available for all versions under the “Settings” sidebar.

Receive Inbound Calls Request If the current answering rule is configured to ring only the user’s extension, then a prompt will display asking whether the user would like to enable Virtual Landline Office Web to receive inbound calls. It is important to click YES when prompted, or else inbound calls to the webphone might be sent straight to voicemail.
Allow Browser Notifications This is a v44+ permission that allows for push notifications. If the permission is disabled, it can be changed later in browser settings.
Additional Scenario If a user has a custom answering rule that utilizes a timeframe other than “default” and is configured to ring only the user’s extension, then the following message will display, telling the user that the phone may not be configured to receive all incoming calls.
This phone may not be configured to receive all incoming calls. Please contact your phone administrator for more information

Ill. Features
Place a Call
Virtual Landline Office_ Web is limited to handling a maximum of two calls. If more than two calls are attempted, a pop-up modal should notify the user. Since WebRTC traffic is encrypted there will be higher CPU utilization on your Core Modules than when used for an unencrypted call. CPU use is about 30% greater than a normal (unencrypted) call.
t. In Virtual Landline Officehe dial pad has moved to the upper lefthand corner of the screen and is now a distinct button.

2. Dialing can be performed by either clicking directly on the numbers in the dial pad, or by typing numbers from a keyboard.
· After v44.0, there is a separate search box to find contacts. Typing in a number outside of the “search contacts” box will not autocomplete.
When dialing is complete, press the green dial icon on your screen, or enter on your keyboard, to begin the call.
