PBX: Call Control
The CommuniGate Pro Signal component can use Automated Rules
to process calls and other Signals.
If the Administrator granted you a proper right, you can create and modify Signal Processing Rules for your Account.
To simplify this process, the WebUser Interface and XIMSS clients
allow you to set so-called Simplified Rules. The Simplified Rules have predefined conditions and actions, and you simply
enable or disable them, and provide some basic parameters.
This section explains how you can set your Simplified Signal Rules using the "stock" WebUser Interface. To set these
Rules, log into your Account using the WebUser Interface and open the Call Control page.

Addresses
You need to specify "addresses" to tell your Automated Rules where to send the call to.
You can specify an address as:
- a simple name or a number (in this case, this address will be interpreted as an address in your Domain),
- a fully-qualified addresses (name@domainName),
- a complete SIP URI (such as <sip:name@domainName;parameters>)
You can specified several addresses if you separate them using the comma (,) symbols.
You can direct a call to an application, using the application name prefixed with the
hash (#) symbol as an address (#applicationName).

The following section specifies the most popular PBX functions and explains how these
functions are implemented in the CommuniGate Pro environment.

all other devices are cancelled.
