Section titled “Beta 2 (Upcoming / In Development)”
Beta 2Status: In ProgressExpected: September 2026

[!NOTE] Beta 2 is currently in active development. The changes, improvements, and fixes listed below represent the focus areas being finalized against the Beta 1 baseline.

✨ New Capabilities

Section titled “✨ New Capabilities”
  • Dedicated AI & Portal Configuration: Introduced a specialized AI & Portal tab in Extensions (AiPortalTab.tsx) supporting real-time Simultaneous Translation, AI Translator Profiles, Web Portal credentials, WebRTC softphone toggle, and AI Chatbot personalities.
  • Unified Single-Screen Conference Rooms: Modernized Conference Room management into a unified 4-column single view (ConferenceFormView.tsx) structured across General Info, Security & Access (with dynamic PIN generation), and Conference Behavior, eliminating legacy Asterisk ghost fields.
  • Native FreeSWITCH Video MCU Support: Enabled high-density video conferencing in conference_profiles.lua with configurable layout templates, canvas dimensions, background colors, FPS, and automated speaker floor tracking.
  • Strict Telephony Call Control Enforcement: Active enforcement in FreeSWITCH Lua route_internal.lua for Call Waiting limits, Anonymous Call Rejection (SIP 433), and Intercom/Paging Auto-Answer headers.

⚡ Refinements & Fixes

Section titled “⚡ Refinements & Fixes”
  • Unified Codec Selection: Consolidated inbound and outbound audio/video codec preferences into a single synchronized selector across Extensions and Hot Desking.
  • Streamlined Extension Architecture: Reorganized advanced parameters by relocating SMS Number, Account Code, and Dial Profile to the Advanced tab, while consolidating Fax assignments into the General tab.
  • Login Screen Ergonomics & Live Brand Simulator: Re-engineered the login layout and live branding preview simulator. Relocated the contextual info/help icon from overlapping the central logo to a dedicated non-intrusive corner position, preventing logo obstruction.
  • Multi-Format High-DPI Favicon Pipeline: Standardized multi-format favicon assets (.ico, .png, and dark-mode variants) across the platform with automated browser fallback.
  • Multi-Tenant Database Boundary Enforcement: Hardened tenant and domain relations in 00_main_tenant.sql and API middleware, eliminating orphan records and ensuring top header selectors strictly reflect primary tenant and domain scopes.
  • High-Definition Branding Assets: Calibrated and trimmed logo and mobile icon proportions across desktop headers, collapsed sidebars, and authentication portals.

Beta 1 (Baseline Release)

Section titled “Beta 1 (Baseline Release)”

Modern Operator & Client Web UI

Fastify 5 REST APIs coupled with React 18, Tailwind, and Zustand web applications for administrative control, Switchboard, and customer billing.

  2. Impact-Focused: Every entry describes what changed from the perspective of an administrator, operator, or end-user.
  3. Subsystem Categorization: Changes are neatly segmented into Ring2All PBX, Ring2All SBC, Ring2All BSS, Switchboard, and User Portal.
