The software offers several ways to access the parameter that you want to use:
● Through the left-hand panel
● From the drop-down menu
● Clicking a taskbar icon, if available

After you enter initial settings, you can configure the MultiVOIP through a Web browser rather than the
Windows interface.

The MultiVOIP web browser interface provides the same commands and configuration parameters as the
MultiVOIP Windows interface, except for logging functions. When using the web browser interface, logging can
be done by email (the SMTP option).
