2.9 Feature Enabling at the Account Level
The setting proxies:proxyn:enabled_features enables or disables the following features on each account:
•
Audio call
•
Video call
•
IM
•
Presence
•
File transfer
•
Workgroup (BLF)
This setting is a bitmask with a default value that enables every feature.
Minimum Configuration
Bria has rules relating to features on accounts. Because you are configuring accounts through provisioning, you
are responsible for ensuring these rules are followed.
At least change the setting as follows:
•
Set IM to disabled on all accounts, then enable it either on the XMPP account (if supported) or on one SIP
account only.
•
Set Presence to match IM.
•
Set File Transfer to disabled on all accounts, then enable it only on the XMPP account (if supported). If
XMPP is not supported, disable file transfer on all accounts.
If you do not change the settings’ default value in this way, then for a while the setup you have configured will
work. But the first time the user makes a change (even something as harmless as changing their display name)
and then clicks Apply on the Accounts List, Bria will enforce these internal rules. At that point, the behavior of
Bria will change, seemingly for no reason, resulting in confusion for the user.
For example, if you enable IM and presence on two SIP accounts, then it will be possible to establish presence
subscriptions on either account. But when the user does something that triggers Bria to enforce the “only one
account” rule, some subscriptions may terminate and the user will not understand why.
Optional Configuration
If desired, you can impose further restrictions on use of phone calls and workgroup on different accounts. For
example, you may want to implement a business rule that only Account 1 is used for phone calls. When
changing the accounts to use for phone calls and workgroup, the following rules apply:
•
For phone calls, an account must be either enabled for both audio and video, or disabled for both.
•
Workgroup (BLF) can be enabled on one or more (or all) SIP accounts.
