This is a web-based internet phone switch and user console that combines SIP/web calling, SMS, voicemail, conferencing and an IRC channel for integrated communication. The interface exposes line selection and calling controls, phone setup (Linphone QR), incoming-call handling (do not disturb, forward, and auto-answer intercom modes), voicemail PIN and greeting management, text settings (typing indicators and read receipts), blocked lists, browser notifications, user activity logs and debug logging. It also shows system presence (web app, asterisk, security, fail2ban), a Hardchats bridge, and a #phreak IRC room for real-time coordination. Admin and account controls include password changes, display options, pending lines, and visibility of recent calls and stats.

A focused set of dial codes and features provide operational specifics: 600/43 for echo test, 69 for callback, 67 to hide caller ID, 97/98 for mailbox access, 70 to park calls and 71-79 to pick them up, 80/81 for desk-phone intercom (two-way or announcement-only), 500 for paging opted-in desk phones, 78/79 for DND, 72/73 to forward/stop forwarding, and 801-899 conference rooms. Extras include a voice room (3501250), an “acid-radio” line (49), texting into #phreak via 742735, 411 for help, and toggles like #06# party mode. Transfer, announce, and debug/admin functions are exposed for operators.
