Configuration File Examples

SoundPoint IP phones can be deployed in two basic methods. In the first method, Microsoft Live Communications Server 2005 serves as the call server and the phones have a single registration. In the second method, the phone has a primary registration to call server—that is not Microsoft Live Communications Server (LCS)—and a secondary registration to LCS for presence purposes.

To set up a single registration with Microsoft Live Communications Server 2005 as the call server:

1.Modify the sip.cfg configuration file as follows: a Open sip.cfg in an XML editor.

b Locate the feature parameter.

c For the feature.1.name = presence attribute, set feature.1.enabled to 1.

d For the feature.2.name = messaging attribute, set feature.2.enabled to 1.
