174 Topics- Change User Number to Service NumberIn S4B Online, is it possible to convert a user number into a service number? We are working on moving a client to S4B PSTN Calling and since AA isn't available yet, we are going to use Team Call Groups to handle the primary incoming line to the business. When AA is GA, we will want to change that number from a user number to a service number.50KViews2likes24Comments
- Skype call issues - Bad device stateHi all, during past two weeks I have noticed increased number of incidents regards Skype for business calls. Users are complaining that suddenly the other end stops hearing them. We have Skype for business is running on premises, Skype client version 15.0.4927.1000 While digging in the Skype for business server reporting I find something like this: Capture device: Headset Microphone (5- Microsoft LifeChat LX-6000) Capture device driver: Microsoft: 6.1.7601.18208 Render device: Headset Earphone (5- Microsoft LifeChat LX-6000) Render device driver: Microsoft: 6.1.7601.18208 Microphone glitch rate: 1 per 5 minutes Speaker glitch rate: 291 per 5 minutes Microphone timestamp drift: 0,01126528% Speaker timestamp drift: 0,00931025% Microphone timestamp error: 0,0355660505592823 ms Speaker timestamp error: 0,17209330201149 ms Echo event cause: Voice switch cause: Bad device state Echo percent send: 3,09% Echo percent microphone in: 11,04% Send signal level: -26 dBov Receive signal level: -21 dBov Send noise level: -62 dBov Receive nosie level: -57 dBov Echo return: Initial signal level RMS: 125,749099731445 Capture device: Transmit (Plantronics D100-M) Capture device driver: Microsoft: 6.1.7601.18208 Render device: Receive (Plantronics D100-M) Render device driver: Microsoft: 6.1.7601.18208 Microphone glitch rate: 14 per 5 minutes Speaker glitch rate: 618 per 5 minutes Microphone timestamp drift: 0,00761747% Speaker timestamp drift: 0,00914335% Microphone timestamp error: 0,0629489421844482 ms Speaker timestamp error: 0,107901096343994 ms Echo event cause: Voice switch cause: Bad device state Echo percent send: 1,55% Echo percent microphone in: 1,55% Send signal level: -19 dBov Receive signal level: -21 dBov Send noise level: -70 dBov Receive nosie level: -57 dBov Echo return: Initial signal level RMS: -53,501651763916 I notice that each time speaker and microphone are glitching which ends in the result Voice switch cause: Bad device state According to MS explanation Voice switch cause: Reason why a call had to be placed into half duplex mode in order to prevent echo. In half duplex mode, communication can travel in only one direction at a time, similar to the way users take turns when communicating with a walkie-talkie. Select one of the following: [All] None Bad timestamp Echo DNLP (dynamic nonlinear processor) Low complexity Bad device state Post-AEC echo (acoustic echo cancellation) This explains why the user "drops out" from the call and others stop hearing him, but this not help to resolve the issue. Each time users were using headsets certified for Skype for business (Plantronics SAVI W410, Microsoft LifeChat LX-6000), we tried updating Skype for business client, headset firmware if available, audio drivers, but the next day users return saying that problem continues to exist. Any ideas on how to resolve this? It would be easy to say to change the headset for the user, but when you buy certified device for $100+, then you expect things to work.Solved21KViews1like19Comments
- PSTN calls drop with-in 15 - 30 mins with Audiocodes SBCHi Community, Recently, I have come across a scenario worth sharing. PSTN calls drops after 15 mins or 30 mins with Audio Codes SBC or Gateway. This can be related or occur due to numerous reason, however if everything is in place (Network to Configuration) and still the call fails, then you can try the below and if it makes the difference. User makes PSTN call > the flow and connectivity is established > after 15 or 30 mins you see BYE message generated resulting in call drop. changing/modifying the "RTCPActiveCalls" and "EnableSessionTimer" may help or simple does't make any difference. Upon isolation, found that issue is mostly triggered due to a setting in Audio Codes S.B.C "Reset SRTP Upon Re-Key" is enabled (usually disabled by default) By going in to the IP profiles > disabling the setting in AudioCodes the issue was resolved and calls no longer were dropped. P.S - This solution may or may not help you (no harm in trying), But its best recommended to contact support and take assistance if needed 🙂11KViews0likes3Comments
- Polycom VVX 411 Signing out Users at RandomHello, We are about to roll out Polycom VVX411 phones using SfB but in our testing users are getting logged out seemingly randomly between 7-30 days. They do get an error "Exchange authentication failed. Sign out and sign in again." on their Polycom phones about 1-2 hours before the phone actually logs them out. We are running Polycom UC Software version 5.9.3.2857 We have MFA enabled for our end users also. We are using SfB and Exchange online, nothing on-prem. Has anyone seen or fixed this issue in their environment? Thanks!9.7KViews0likes15Comments

- Contact cards show phone number that doesn't exist as an attrributeWe have a few users whose contact cards are displaying phone numbers that do not exist on their accounts or contacts. These phone numbers did previously exist on their AD accounts but were corrected some time ago. So far I have confirmed that the number does not exist in an attributes of their AD account (inc. sip address), mailbox or Skype accounts, and does not exist in Outlook contacts. I have also cleared the galcontact.* files from sip profiles, and cleared the entire sip profile but the contact cards on the GAL still display this old number. The corrected numbers display OK, but this old number is displayed as well on a separate line. Any advice on how to clean up these contact cards would be welcome. Thanks MarkSolved8.4KViews0likes7Comments

- Difference between Common Area Phone and Phone System/PSTN licensing?The Common Are Phone SKU continues to perplex me. What *doesn't* it come with? In other words, why wouldn't I just purchase a bunch of CAP licenses for my users who have no need for the O365 suite/email/SharePoint etc. but just need a phone with voicemail? Is that viable?6.6KViews0likes1Comment
- Caller ID show Company NameCurrently all calls from our tenancy show as from "ourwebsite.com" when we call our clients. Is there any way to change outgoing Caller ID to show "Company Name"? It just seems really cheesy to show our calls coming from our website. We're all on E5 licensing with Domestic Calling, US based. 100% cloud. Thanks, PaulSolved5.9KViews0likes5Comments
