Monitoring the status of PBX extensions

You can monitor the status of the extensions added to the FortiGate Voice configuration. Status information includes the extension number and the Host name or IP address of the extension as registered with the FortiGate Voice unit. To monitor extension status go to PBX > Monitor > Extension Status.

If the information displayed about an extension includes a host name or IP address the extension is operating and can send or receive calls with the FortiGate Voice unit. If no host name or IP address is displayed the extension cannot communicate with the FortiGate Voice unit. For example, the extension could be shut down or not able to connect to the FortiGate Voice because of network issues or configuration problems with the configuration of the extension phone or softphone.
