User Agent Control

Last Updated : Aug 01, 2024 |
In addition to automatic IP address and extension number blacklisting, the system can apply registration control based on the UA (user agent) string that the registering devices provides.
  • These settings are only available on Linux-based IP Office systems.
  • These settings are applied to new registration only, not to keep-alive or unregistration requests. When blocking is applied, the IP Office system does not respond to the registration request.
