SIP Gateways and SIP Proxies are different but are configured similarly. Both types of
devices are added to the system through the Phone System > Outside Lines page.
13.3.1 Configure SIP Proxies and SIP Gateways
SIP Proxies and SIP Gateways have configuration settings that are specific to using the
ITSP or device. See “Allworx Server behind a Third-Party NAT Firewall” on page 31 for
additional information.

Lines page and locate the appropriate section.
2. Click the link. Update the parameters (see table below), and click Add.
• SIP Gateways section: Click the add new SIP Gateway link. This opens the SIP
Gateway dialog box to configure the parameters specifically for the ITSP service
in use.
• SIP Proxies section: Click the add new SIP Proxy link. This opens the SIP
Proxy dialog box to configure the parameters specifically for the ITSP service in
use.
3. Navigate to Phone System > Outside Lines to return to the Outside Lines page.
13.3.2 SIP Proxy and SIP Gateway Setting Details
SIP Gateway
A SIP-compatible device that extends the connectivity of the Allworx PBX.
Examples are FXO, FXS or T1 expander gateways. Typically, SIP Gateways
connect to the Allworx server via an Ethernet interface directly to the Allworx
server LAN.
Remote Allworx
Servers (Multi-Site)
An Allworx server at another site configured to behave as if it is part of the local
system. The Allworx Server Administrator can configure the remote Allworx
server to provide outside line services for the local server. See the Allworx
Advanced Multi-site Setup Guide for information on configuring these services.
The guide is available on the Allworx Partner Portal (www.allworxportal.com
).
