SIP Registration Settings
The SIP Registration Settings page is used to manage the SIP registration settings of the conference. SIP Registration Server and SIP Outbound
Proxy Server settings may be configured here. The SIP server registration is needed for conference to be reachable in the IP network.
Please Note: This page is read-only for the users authenticated as participants.
This page offers the following components:
User Name text field requires a user name for conference
registration on the SIP server. The registration user name
needs to be unique on the SIP server and is used to reach the
conference over the SIP network.
Password indicates the password for the extension
registration on a SIP server.
Confirm Password is for password confirmation. If the
entered password does not correspond to the one given in the
Password field, an error will appear.
SIP Server indicates the host address of the SIP server. The
field is not limited regarding symbol usage and length as it can
be either an IP address, for example, 192.168.0.26 or a host
address, e.g., sip.epygi.com.
SIP Port indicates the host port number to connect to the SIP
server. The SIP server port may contain only numeric values.
If the SIP server port is not specified, QuadroCS will access
the SIP server through the default port 5060.

Registration on SIP Server enables conference registration on the SIP server registration.
The link
SIP Advanced Settings moves to a page where advanced SIP settings (Outbound Proxy, Secondary SIP Server and Outbound Proxy
for the Secondary SIP Server settings and other SIP server specific settings) can be configured.
SIP Advanced Settings
The SIP Advanced Settings page is used to configure advanced SIP settings (Outbound Proxy, Secondary SIP Server and Outbound Proxy for the
Secondary SIP Server settings and to define other SIP server specific settings).
The SIP Outbound proxy is an SIP server where all the SIP requests and other SIP messages are transferred. Some SIP servers use an outbound
proxy server to escape restrictions of NAT. For example, Free World Dialup service uses an Outbound Proxy server. If an Outbound proxy is
specified for a conference, all dial-out SIP calls originating from that conference are made through that outbound proxy, i.e., all requests are sent to
that outbound proxy, even those made by Speed Calling.
The Secondary SIP Server acts as an alternative SIP registration server when the primary SIP Registration Server is inaccessible. If the connection
with the primary SIP server fails, Quadro will automatically start sending SIP messages to the Secondary SIP Server. It will switch back to the
primary SIP server as soon as the connection is reestablished.
Authentication User Name requires an identification parameter
to reach the SIP server. It should be provided by the SIP service
provider and can be requested for some SIP servers only. For
others, the field should be left empty.
Send Keep-alive Messages to Proxy enables the SIP
registration server accessibility to the verification mechanism.
Timeout indicates the timeout between two attempts for the SIP
registration server accessibility verification. If no reply is
received from the primary SIP server within this timeout, the
Secondary SIP server will be contacted. When the primary SIP
server recovers, SIP packets will resume being sent to it.
The RTP Priority Level drop down list is used to select the
priority (low, medium or high) of the RTP packets sent from a
corresponding conference. RTP packets with higher priority will
be sent first in case of heavy traffic.
A group of Host address and Port text fields respectively
require the host address (IP address or the host name) and the
port numbers of the Outbound Proxy, Secondary SIP Server
and the Outbound Proxy for the Secondary SIP Server.
These settings are provided by the SIP servers’ providers and
are used by Quadro to reach the selected SIP servers.
