To remove an account, select the account in the account list and click Remove.
Account Information
• Name – Enter a descriptive name. This can for example be a rst and last name, a role, or a location. The name is used as
an alias and is especially useful when several accounts have the same user ID.
• Default account – Select to make this the default account. Only one account can be the default account.
At startup, the rst time the product is accessed or after a reset, a peer account is created automatically and set to be the
default account. This peer account can only be removed if at least one more account has been added to the list.
The default account will be used to make triggered calls and to make test calls on the SIP Settings page. For more
information about triggers and actions, see Events on page 18.
Account Credentials
• User ID (required) – Enter the name or PBX extension that shall be shown when calling other accounts. A private branch
exchange (PBX) is a telephone switching system that connects telephone extensions to each other and to other telephone
networks. Each PBX-connected device has its own extension number.
• Authentication ID – Some PBXs require that the account veries itself with the SIP registrar to allow access to the PBX. For
more information, see the PBX’s and service provider’s instructions. By default the Authentication ID is identical to the User
ID. To enable an Authentication ID that is different from the User ID, clear the Use User ID as Authentication ID check box.
• Password – Enter the password for the account. A password is not required for peer-to-peer accounts.
• Conrm password – Repeat the password. A password is not required for peer-to-peer accounts.
• Caller ID – Enter the name or phone number that you want the recipient to see when you make the call.
If you only enter a user ID, the account will be used as a peer-to-peer account. This means that unless the devices are connected
to NATs with SIP-specic port forwarding such as STUN or TURN, the account will only be able to communicate with devices
that are connected to the same private network. For more information, see Network Address Translation (NAT) Traversal (port
forwarding) on page 13.
To create an account that is registered with a PBX or a service provider, enter the user ID, password, and the registrar address
or domain name. See SIP Server Settings below.
SIP Server Settings
• Domain name – If available, enter the public domain name. The domain name will be shown as part of the SIP address
when calling other accounts. For more information, see About SIP Addresses on page 16.
• Registrar address – Enter the SIP server’s registrar address. This is to point out the SIP registrar with which the account
should register itself. The SIP registrar is the part of the PBX that keeps track of all the extensions.
Important
The registrar address should be an IPv4 address. The product’s VoIP capabilities currently do not include support for IPv6.
Transport Settings
• Enable SIPS – Select to use Secure Session Initiation Protocol (SIPS). SIPS uses the TLS transport mode to encrypt the
trafc. If you enable SIPS, you cannot select any other transport mode than TLS.
• Transport mode – Select the SIP transport mode for the account: UDP, TCP, or TLS.
• Allow port update messages through MWI – Message waiting indicator (MWI) noties the user of changes in the
port settings.
The difference between SIPS (Enable SIPS) and SIP over TLS (Transport mode – TLS) is that SIPS ensures that each message transfer
is encrypted, while SIP over TLS only has to make a best effort.
