Hypervisor? I’m using Oracle VirtualBox, and it has the feature, I just very seldom do anything MAJOR to my VM, ie update it to FreePBX 15+, because it broke the entire system before, hence why I requested clarification. Thanks.
Understood, I’ve got some more confidence now, I’ll update you when I have anything to report
A hypervisor is the software that runs virtual machines.
Wait! I lied! Mine’s a Type 2 as my host machine runs Win10, and uses VirtualBox
FWIW, we have got Avaya 96XX phones to register via simple SIP, as opposed to H.323, and it works alright (appearances, hold, conf, transfer). There are directions out there for BLF and phonebook that involve setting up a intermediary SOAP sever, but we haven’t gotten that far (trying them) yet.
I echo everyone else in saying that there are way easier (and cheaper) phones out there that would be a much better fit. We are an Avaya-first environment, using FreePBX to create unique call treatments and other edge use cases. In our case there was value in trying to have one set of phones (Avaya) that could fall back to Asterisk in certain use cases.
I dunno, I just like these Cisco and Avaya phones, I guess a diverse IP phone system sounds nice? But again, just a hobby
I like the Avaya phones too, could be bias though.
FWIW, we have sampled many of the supported phones,

and it is hard to go back to Avaya considering these phones are cheaper per unit, and there is support built into the GUI in setting them up and provisioning. It is so much faster and so (very) much easier to support.
laughs maniacally I saw them a lot in High school, I’m more preferring the Cisco phones as those were what I grew up with since Elementary school, but yeah.
(FWIW meaning “For what it’s worth”?) This link will come in handy, thank you.
The Cisco phones? I can imagine, Cisco is probably the leader in VoIP phone marketing, not bashing on Sangoma (No offense), just not familiar with them, and while I’d probably like to buy a Sangoma phone, my budget doesn’t allow for it, which is actually kinda sad because like I said, diversity in my VoIP system actually sounds nice, even though it’s just a hobby system… Anyway, no updates on my progress right now, but I’ll keep everyone posted.
i can help add me on Discord ToxicJ#8273
It says you aren’t accepting friend requests on Discord… Try adding me; Ender#3764
Update-ish…
Got help via Discord, we’re experimenting with a new system, but on the old system; my 7941 will no longer register, initially TFTPing to the PBX server, now doing so to TFTPD on my host machine, still no luck, changed extension to PJSIP then back to SIP, nothing, SCCP not underway yet…
Dude, seriously. Give up. Accept that you have wasted your money on these bricks. It’s a life lesson to learn. If the price of something is too good to be true, it’s too good to be true.
Do what the person you bought them from did to you - sell them on ebay to an unsuspecting buyer who will then realise that they’re not worth the money they spent on freight to get them from you.
How about “No”?
There’s nothing wrong with admitting you’ve been scammed. It happens to everyone. You’ve been scammed. Accept it and move along.
I haven’t been scammed, mate! I’m just not as knowledgeable about all of this! So how’s about you knock this off and just let me work on this on my own pace, yeah?
Don’t start this again! We’ve already talked about this before, don’t need any more!
Then why aren’t you listening to people who ARE knowledgeable? Please, take a step back. Say to yourself ‘The guy who wrote the software I am using is telling me I have been scammed’. Then listen to what you just said.
If you still disagree then there’s nothing really else I can do here.
Nor I, if you refuse to follow @cynjut leads, you will be in for a long haul.
(When you get it working. please post your solution)
You! Wrote the software for what? Cisco or FreePBX?
And that’s a long haul I’m willing to take!
(Will do.)
Clue, he didn’t write the Cisco software.
