Gigaset A580 IP / US English / A31008-xxxx-xxxx-x-xxxx / web_server.fm / 24.04.2009
Version 8, 03.09.2008
Area: General Provider Data
If you have downloaded the general settings for the VoIP provider from the
Gigaset configuration server (£ Page 108), then the fields in this area will be
preset with the data from the download. Generally, you do not need to config-
ure any settings in this area.
Domain Specify the last part of your SIP address (URI) here (maximum 74 characters).
Proxy server address
The SIP proxy is your VoIP provider's gateway server. Enter the IP address or the
(fully-qualified) DNS name of your SIP proxy server (maximum 74 characters).
Example: myprovider.com.
Proxy server port
Enter the number of the communication port that the SIP proxy uses to send
and receive signaling data (SIP port).
Port 5060 is used by most VoIP providers.
Registrar server
Enter the (fully-qualified) DNS name or the IP address of the registrar server
(maximum 74 characters).
The registrar is needed when the phone is registered. It assigns the public IP
address/port number to your SIP address (
Username@Domain) used by the
phone to log in. With most VoIP providers, the registrar server is identical to the
SIP server. Example: reg.myprovider.com.
Registrar server port
Enter the communication port used in the registrar. Usually, port 5060 is used.
Registration refresh time
Enter the time intervals at which the phone should repeat the registration with
the VoIP server (SIP proxy) (a request will be sent to establish a session). The
repeat is required so that the entry of the phone in the tables of the SIP proxy
is retained and the phone can therefore be reached. The repeat will be carried
out for all activated VoIP phone numbers.
The default is 180 seconds.
If you enter 0 seconds, the registration will not be repeated periodically.
Area: Network
Example
For the SIP address "987654321@provider.com", enter "provider.com" in
Domain.
Please note
If you have downloaded the general settings for your VoIP provider from the
Gigaset configuration server (£
Page 109), then some fields in this area will
be preset with the data from the download (e.g. the settings for the STUN
server and outbound proxy).
