Service provider profile
If setting up a service provider profile, the
Activate Profile
area allows you to activate the profile,
enter the profile name, set up public IP address substitution, and set up keep alive messages.
1. Select the
Activate Profile
check box.
2. Enter the
Profile name
. The default profile name is
Service provider n
(e.g.
Service provider 1
).
3. If your service provider requires you to register using your private IP address, select the
Disable public IP address substitution
check box.
For information on how to set this, see the service configuration guide for your VoIP
service provider.
4. If your service provider requires you to set up keep alive messages, and if your router does
not support uPNP, set up keep alive messages.
Keep alive messages maintain the connection from the TalkSwitch unit, through your router,
to the service provider’s SIP server.
For information on configuring keep alive messages, see the service configuration guide for
your VoIP service provider.
