So the issue is the MAC address of the base station.

However, that brings up other questions; how does the base station keep the handset separate, and how does PBX software know which handset to target?

The base/handsets have some kind of other identifier (I think it is the IPUI code, that you can see in the handset's setting Status>Handset). As far as I know that is not something that can be used by us (users.)

The other way (visible to us) that the base identifies the handsets is ones it is subscribed to a base the base gives it a Handset number (Handset 1, Handset 2, etc.) That can be used to assign Accounts (each Registered extension is a seperate account in the base) to Handsets.

This is done (in the web gui) under Account>Number Assignment, or in provisioning through something like:

Code:

handset.1.incoming_lines =
handset.1.dial_out_lines =
handset.1.dial_out_default_line =
