Broadsoft Broadworks Remote Office Support - Mitel 6863i Release Notes

BROADSOFT BROADWORKS REMOTE OFFICE SUPPORT

Note: This feature is applicable to the 6867i, 6869i, and 6873i SIP phones.
Release 4.2.0 SP1 introduces interoperability support for the BroadSoft BroadWorks Remote
Office service using the BroadSoft BroadWorks Xsi API. The BroadWorks Remote Office
service allows users the ability to use any remote end-point device as their office phone. Users
can define a remote office number or SIP-URI whereby all incoming calls to their SIP phone
will be automatically forwarded to the defined remote office number/SIP-URI.
Note: Refer to the respective Xtended Services Platform and BroadSoft BroadWorks
documentation for information on how to configure the Remote Office service on the
BroadSoft BroadWorks call manager.
After configuring the Remote Office service using the Xtended Services Platform,
Administrators must enable basic Xsi interoperability on the phone by defining the following
Xsi credential parameters:
• xsi ip
• xsi protocol
• xsi port
• xsi user name
Note: For authentication, the Xsi SIP authentication feature can be configured to
automate authentication using users' SIP credentials or, alternatively, users can
authenticate to the Xsi account by manually entering in their credentials through the
native phone UI. For more information on Xsi authentication options, refer to the 6800
Series SIP Phones Administrator Guide.
In addition to the Xsi credential parameters, to specifically enable Remote Office support on
the phone, Administrators must define the "xsi remote office" parameter in the respective
configuration file as "1". When enabled, users have the ability to enable and disable Remote
Office functionality as well as change the Remote Office number/SIP-URI through the phone's
native UI.
