proxy for smooth migrations from older pbx to voxbi pbx
→ during migration from an old pbx to voxbi pbx, phones registering to the old pbx can be redirected to the new pbx.
what changes
the system introduces a proxy mechanism within the pbx engine to intercept registration requests aimed at the old pbx. these requests are transparently forwarded to the voxbi pbx, allowing devices to connect without manual reconfiguration.
this change enables a phased migration where both pbx systems can operate concurrently, minimizing downtime and service disruption.
benefits
- seamless transition with minimal user impact
- reduced manual device reconfiguration
- supports parallel operation of old and new pbx
- lowers risk of service interruption during migration
use cases
- migrating large user bases gradually
- maintaining legacy pbx during transition period
- testing voxbi pbx functionality with live devices
- enabling fallback to old pbx if needed
how it works
- phones continue to send registration requests to the old pbx address.
- the proxy in the pbx engine intercepts these requests.
- intercepted requests are redirected to the voxbi pbx for authentication and registration.
- successful registrations allow phones to operate on the voxbi pbx without changing configuration.
▸ ensure network routes and firewall rules allow proxy redirection traffic between old pbx endpoints and voxbi pbx for seamless operation.
