Extensions

Super AdminTenant Admin

Extensions are the SIP voice accounts that your users, desk phones, and softphones register with to make and receive calls. Each extension has a number, a password, and optional voicemail – and it syncs to FreeSWITCH instantly when you save.

Extension numbers must be unique across all PBX resource types within a tenant domain. If the system blocks your number, check ring groups and conference rooms for conflicts.

Package Quotas

Your tenant’s service package defines a maximum number of extensions. When you hit that limit, ICTPBX blocks new extension creation and shows a clear message. Contact your Super Admin to upgrade the subscription package if you need more slots.
