FYI Go Public

[md2tech]

I've got the PBX2020 setup and running but I realized I forgot to add an extension that needs to be public. How/where do I add new extensions to allow for public access?

PUBLIC is all or nothing. Once you go public, you can lock down individual extensions by IP address.

I do understand that it's all or nothing, but can I then go back and add a new extension, how would I make that public accessible after running the public script?

re-read Ward's answer, Public is all or nothing...meaning any extension you add is automatically public, no voodoo necessary. To make an extension only registerable to one place however, you lock them down to an IP address in the extensions Advanced Tab and look for the line Permit

Public ones will show 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0

Locked down ones will be like 123.45.67.89/255.255.255.0 -- what this says is this extension canmnot be registered anywhere else but this IP address.

CAVEAT is that if your location has it's IP changed all your extensions will de-register and never come back until you can get into your admin panel again and reset the IP addresses to the new one.
