What does Restrictions do?

Restrictions can hide or disable certain features or settings in Zoiper, so the users will not be able to modify or see them.

 

Restrictions is a Biz feature. It is not available in the free versions of Zoiper.
Restrictions is available for Zoiper for Mac, Linux and Windows.

 

How to use restrictions?

You could edit the Config.xml file manually and apply the needed Restrictions, or use Restrictions along with Provisioning.

 

Edit the Config.xml using simple text editor as Notepad, or dedicated XML editor only.

 

How to setup restrictions?

Zoiper will always load its configuration by reading the Config.xml file in the Application Data\Zoiper folder for the user that started Zoiper.

Restrictions need to be applied to the Config.xml file as follows:

  • The <restrictions> tag can must contain one or several values separated by comma.
  • The tag should be put on the same level as <general> tag. It is to be put right after the end of the General section.
Example:

</general>
<restrictions>
<restrictions>hangup,hold</restrictions>
</restrictions>

 

Note that the opening and the closing tag are repeated twice:

 

<restrictions>
<restrictions>value1,value2,value3</restrictions>
</restrictions>
