外部のコンタクト(Google Chatやその他のJabberベースのチャットシステム)とチャットを行うには、PCやルーターでTCPポート5223番を開けておく必要があります。
HUD3のチャットウインドウは、他のユーザーとのすべての会話(チャット)を、各ユーザーごとにタブで区別されたウインドウの中で表示します。 Within each tab, a number of icons present additional functionality like the ability to quickly call a user, send an SMS, or compose an email via your computer's default email application.
A description of each of the icons available from the chat window is listed below:
- Open the Chat History window
- Call the extension of the user you are currently chatting
- Call the mobile phone of the user you are currently chatting
- Send an SMS to the mobile phone of the user you are currently chatting
- Send an email to the user you are currently chatting using your default email client
All communication via chat is logged to a history file stored on the user's computer. Customers who purchase HUD Agent or higher have the option to enable server-side chat logging. Logs are stored on the trixbox Pro in a directory named after the username used to login to HUD.
This option is disabled by default because it consumes system resources and may not be necessary for all customers. Only administrators will be able to enable or disable this option via the Fonality Admin Panel.
