Differential Ring

This feature enables users to have a custom ring tone set for their telephone. Custom ring tones can be set in following manner:

    • Using the Call Filters & Blocking option under Enhanced Services when editing extensions

    • Using the Custom Ringtone option when setting a DID

    • Setting the desired ring tone for all phones in Settings->Servers, Edit

Call Filters & Blocking

If you want to set a custom ring tone (which can be done per extension), click on Enhanced Services when editing your extension. Enable the Call Filters & Blocking feature. You can set a custom ring tone for anonymous callers or for known numbers. Just click on Destination Type and choose Ring Tone. In the Destination field, enter what ring tone you want and that depends on the phone that you have.

Internal Calling

If you want to set a custom ring tone for internal calls:

    • Click on extension, show Advanced Options

    • Caller ID, Ringtone for Local calls: Ring4 (specify per type of UAD, where Ring4 is a Yealink ringtone)

Yealink phones require settings on CloudPBX and device as well. The phones settings can be updated on CloudPBX, through a UAD auto provisioning template, or manually through the phones web interface.

Yealink IP Handset Programming

In your phones web interface, you have to navigate to the Account tab select Advanced and scroll down to Distinctive Ring Tones and change to Enabled.

From the Settings tab select Ring and add a value to the “Internal Ringer Text” you would like to use; for example ‘Ring4’. Select the “Internal Ringer File” file from the list that you would like the phone to play when CloudPBX send this string to your phone, for example ‘Ring4.wav’.

On your DID or Ring Group you will have to edit Custom Ringtone: field and enter some value, for example, "Ring4" (without quotes). String entered in the device and the string entered in Custom Ringtone field must match.
