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 extension. RTP packets with higher priority will be
sent first in case of heavy traffic.
The
Do Not Use SIP Old Hold Method
checkbox enables the
new recommended method of call hold in SIP, in which case the
hold request is indicated with the "a=sendonly" media attribute,
rather than with the IP address of 0.0.0.0 used before. The
checkbox should be enabled if the remote party does not
recognize hold requests initiated from the QX1000.
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 QX1000 to reach the selected SIP servers.

Remote Settings
This group is used to configure
SIP Remote Extension
functionality. This is an advanced telephony feature that allows QX1000 users to remotely
operate QX1000. Users need to register a hardware or software SIP phone on the QX1000 by defining the QX1000’s global IP address and an
appropriate Username/Password. A registered SIP Remote phone can act fully as a phone connected locally to QX1000, i.e. it can use QX1000’s
PBX features, place and receive calls, access voice mails, etc.
The
Enable
checkbox activates the SIP Remote Extension’s functionality.
Please Note:
SIP Remote Extension
functionality may be enabled only for active (attached to an IP line) extensions.
Identification parameters used by the remote SIP device for registration on the QX1000 should be defined in the
Username
and
Password
text
fields. They should match on both QX1000 and SIP phone for a successful connection. The Password field is checked against its strength and you
may see how strong is your inserted password right below that field. To achieve the well protected strong password minimum 8 characters of letters
in upper and lower case, symbols and numbers should be used. If you are unable to define a strong password, press
Generate Password
to use
one of system defined strong passwords.
Line Appearance
text field requires a number of simultaneous calls supported by the SIP phone.
When the
Enable RTP Proxy
checkbox is selected, incoming and outgoing RTP streams to and from the remote SIP phone will be routed through
QX1000. When the checkbox is not selected, RTP packets will be moving directly between peers.
