Background
Callone (current telecom provider) is ending our TDM/PRI contract in November of 2020 and we need to go to SIP. This would reset our contract renewals to November, making it hard to really look at new VOIP solutions/providers since any big change over should be done in summer.
Current state
Migrating Jones FreePBX Server to MES as our highest priority.
Plan out how to do it nicely for other buildings.
Quick Notes to do:
Export Extensions from production server
Massage extensions import file to include the new secret
Update TFTP boot files to include new secret /password.
Import extensions per building/location
Copy over voicemail folders
add custom extensions (007) code from old server to new server
