Password Strategy
Optimized password policy for administrator password, extension registration password and extension user password to enhance system security, mitigating critical risks such as unauthorized system access, toll fraud, and data breaches.

  • Administrator password
    Note: You are required to change your password to a strong one in the following scenarios:
    • On your first login to the PBX web interface.
    • When logging in to the PBX web interface with a weak password when the Allow Weak Password option is disabled.

Extensions
Added support for configuring mandatory password change policies for extensions (Path: Settings > PBX > Extensions > Advanced > Login Security). You can control whether to force extension users to change their user passwords and specify the required change frequency.

Call Control

Optimized Outbound Restriction: Added support for selecting a time unit (Min, Hour or Day) when configuring the Time Limit for an outbound restriction rule (Path: Settings > PBX > Call Control > Outbound Restriction), providing more precise control over the restriction time period.

Linkus Server
Added compatibility with PBX password policy to enhance Linkus client security:
  • If the User must change password periodically feature is enabled, extension users will be required to periodically change their password to continue using Linkus, ensuring account security.
  • If strong password policy is required (the Allow Weak Password option is enabled), when extension users log in to the Linkus with a weak password, they will be forced to change their password to a strong one.
