Set up Linkus Clients for Users

This topic describes how to set up Linkus clients for users, allowing them to make calls and utilize various Yeastar Phone System features through Linkus clients.

Background information

Depending on the edition of Yeastar P-Series Phone system, the required settings vary.

Yeastar P-Series Software Edition

If users only need to use Linkus within the company's Local Area Network (LAN), you only need to Enable Linkus clients for users.
If users need to use Linkus outside the company, you need to complete the following settings:
- Set up Linkus Server
- Enable Linkus clients for users

Yeastar P-Series Cloud Edition: Yeastar P-Series Cloud Edition provides a pre-configured Linkus server, enabling users to seamlessly access Yeastar phone system features from anywhere with internet access. All you need to do is Enable Linkus clients for users.

Set up Linkus Server

Log in to PBX management portal, go to System > Network.
Select the Yeastar FQDN tab, and turn on Yeastar FQDN.
In the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) field, set up the FQDN domain name.
1. Select a domain name from the drop-down list.
2. Enter a host name in the first field.
  Note: Think twice before you enter the hostname. The FQDN can not be changed after you save the configurations.
  For example, select domain name ras.yeastar.com and enter host name yeastardocs. You will get an FQDN yeastardocs.ras.yeastar.com.
Click Save and Apply.

Enable Linkus clients for users

Select all users and click Edit.
Click Linkus Clients tab, then select Linkus.
Turn on the switch of the desired Linkus client(s).
