A Comparison to Bria 2.5
A.1 Summary
Following is a summary of major differences in settings between Bria 2.5 and Bria 3.1.
New Settings
• Feature enabling per account. The setting proxies:proxyn:enabled_features let you enable features on a
specific account, in order to match your internal business rules or network setup.
• Workgroup. The setting proxies:proxyn:allow_dialog_subscriptions lets you control whether other users in
a workgroup will be able to monitor the local user's call activity.
• Directory using Active Directory. Bria now supports connecting to an external directory using Active
Directory as well as LDAP. A new group of settings have been added, feature:adsi:<setting name>. The
setting names are sometimes identical to the LDAP settings names, but sometimes there are small
differences, such as dispNameKey (LDAP) versus dispName_Key (Active Directory), so be careful. See
the Bria Settings reference documentation for the complete list of settings.
• Resource lists. Some settings that were previously shared by WebDAV and XCap are now split into
separate settings.
• RTP inactivity timers. The Preferences > Advanced panel now includes the RTP timers. The descriptions
for these settings have been improved.
• For other new settings, see the detailed list below.
Differences in Configuration of Features
• Advertisement: the URL for the advertisement panel cannot be provisioned; it must be included in your
brand at build time.
• Alerts: the setting ui:general:call_immediately_on_selection has moved to
ui:call:call_immediately_on_selection.
• Anonymous calling method: proxies:proxyn:anonymous_calling_method is not supported. Anonymous
calling is always supported via a SIP message.
• Call security (call encryption): There are fewer options. Read the revised information for the setting.
• Diagnostics: diagnostics is controlled by different settings, which should always be manipulated by the user
through Help > Troubleshooting.
• DTMF: DTMF via INFO is no longer supported. Read the revised information for the setting
system:dtmf:enabled.
• MWI indicator: the setting feature:availability:show_mwi_always is not supported. The MWI icon always
shows.
• Resources - Global Contact List: the key setting storage:contact_list_storage:resource_list_method has a
new option “outlook” to support integration with Microsoft® Outlook®. See the settings in the topic
“Resources - Global Contact List” in the Bria Settings reference documentation.
• Resources - Individual Accounts: privacy lists are not supported in Bria 3.0, therefore the setting
proxies:proxyn:privacy_server_filename is not applicable.
• Ringer volume: the ringer volume cannot be configured.
• UI domain: none of the settings in the “ui” domain are supported except for those that are exposed on the
Preferences panel.
