Account Setting Description
Description Assign a name to the SIP Proxy. It can be the ITSP name or
any name that is useful to the System Administrator.
User ID The ITSP typically assigns this value. This ID is often the
phone number for the account.
SIP Server The DNS name or IP address of the proxy server you are
connecting provided by the ITSP. The port number is usually
5060 but verify with the ITSP.
Outbound Proxy DNS name or IP address of the outbound redirect server, if it
differs from the SIP Server. In many cases, this is not required.
SIP Registration Required Use if your SIP proxy server requires a SIP registration. The
ITSP assigns the Login ID and Password. If the ITSP uses a
registrar server that is different from the SIP proxy server,
enter the DNS name or IP address of this server in the
Registrar name field.
Caller ID Name Name used for outbound calls. Some ITSPs may ignore this or
refuse calls if set.
