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:

 

Username

Authorized User

SIP address

Domain

Realm

Registrar

Registar port

Outbound Proxy

Proxy port

Password

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 or SIP 2.

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.

2.Confirm the SIP Interface (SIP1 or SIP2) configured in the account is enabled.

3.Verify that the Via selected in the SIP1 or SIP2 interface settings corresponds with the network interface being used by the codec to register the account. E.g. LAN1, LAN2 or Wi-Fi.
