Configuring SIP settings

SIP calls will select the audio and video codecs to use from those allowed on the Settings > Connections page, unless the call is with a endpoint configured with a Custom codec (refer to Configuring SIP endpoints for more information).

Refer to this table for assistance configuring the SIP settings. After making any configuration changes, click Apply changes.

 

Field Field description Usage tips
SIP registration settings

Specifies the level of SIP registration for the IP VCR.

Can be set to:

  • No registration: The IP VCR will not register with the SIP registrar. This means that a user with a SIP endpoint can only connect to the IP VCR by dialing an IP address
  • Register VCR only: Enables users to dial in to the auto attendant of the IP VCR (this is the auto attendant of the top-level folder)
  • Allow recording registration: Enables users to dial recordings on the IP VCR directly (as well as dial in to the auto attendant of the IP VCR)
SIP registrar address

Identifies the network address of the SIP registrar to which IP VCR registrations should be made.

This can be specified either as a host name or as an IP address. This field will have no effect if SIP registration settings is set to No registration.
SIP registrar type

Choose between:

  • Standard SIP: for non-Microsoft SIP registrars
  • Microsoft LCS: for Microsoft SIP registrars

Your choice is dependent on the type of SIP registrar you are using.

If you are using Microsoft LCS, you will also need to configure LCS to recognize the IP address of the IP VCR and treat it as authenticated.

This field will have no effect if SIP registration settings is set to No registration.
Username

The login name for the IP VCR on the SIP registrar.

You need to configure the SIP registrar with details of the devices that will register with it and create a login for each device.

If you are using Microsoft LCS, you need to enter the full URI (for example, MCU@mylcs.com).

Password

The password for the IP VCR on the SIP registrar.

You need to configure the SIP registrar with details of the devices that will register with it and create a login for each device. For Microsoft LCS, do not enter a password.

SIP proxy address

Identifies the network address of the SIP proxy.

If set, the proxy is used for all SIP calls, whether through a registrar or not.
Outgoing transport

Whether the outgoing transport will be TCP or UDP.

If your SIP devices use TCP, select TCP as the outgoing transport. If your SIP devices use UDP, select UDP as the outgoing transport. The IP VCR accepts connections on both TCP and UDP.
