Chapter 5. SIP Configuration

Log class for SIP errors

The Telecommuting Module sends a message if there are any SIP errors. Select a log class
for these log messages.

Log class for SIP media messages

The Telecommuting Module creates log messages about when media streams are set up and
torn down. Select a log class for these messages.

Log class for SIP debug messages

The Telecommuting Module logs a lot of status messages, for example the SIP initiation
phase of a reboot. Select a log class for these messages.

Save

Saves the Basic Settings configuration to the preliminary configuration.

Cancel

Clears and resets all fields in new rows and resets changes in old rows.

Routing

DNS Override For SIP Requests

Here, you can register SIP domains to which the Telecommuting Module should be able to
forward requests, but which for some reason cannot be resolved in DNS. Enter an IP address
and port to which the requests should be forwarded. You can also select to use a specific
protocol.

The Telecommuting Module uses the Request-URI of the incoming SIP packet to match for
the domains in this table. When it matches a domain, the packet will be forwarded to the IP
address entered here. Note that the Request-URI will not be rewritten!

You can also enter subdomains to

Local SIP Domains

, if you want the subdomain to be

handled by a separate SIP proxy. This table has a higher priority than

Local SIP Domains

,

which means that if you register a subdomain to a domain registered under

Local SIP Do-

mains

, the Telecommuting Module will forward SIP requests to the subdomain instead of

processing them itself.

You can enter more than one IP address or host name for a domain, and set weights and
priorities for these.
