Configuring SIP Accounts

Scroll Prev Top Next More

Getting Started

Up to 6 SIP accounts can be configured in the codec and registering codecs for SIP connectivity is simple. First, select the SIP server to which you will register your codec. On a LAN this may be your own server, or it could be one of the many internet servers available. When you register an account with a SIP server you will be provided with:

 

The SIP registrar and Proxy Server details.

An authorized user or username (often the same as a SIP number).

A password.

Domain details.

Realm details (in most cases leave blank).

Registration Timeout (this shouldn't need to be adjusted from the default setting).

Important Notes:

In most situations it is best to configure a SIP account when the codec is configured with a public IP address.

Each SIP account can only be mapped to a single SIP interface, i.e. SIP1 (LAN1) or SIP 2 (VLAN1).

Up to 6 SIP accounts can be added to the codec.

It is also possible to add and register a SIP account to your codec using the HTML5 Toolbox Web-GUI.
