3.5.6SIP Registration

Registration is the process by which centralized SIP Server/Registrars become aware of the existence and readiness of an endpoint to make and receive calls. The phone supports a num- ber of configuration parameters to allow this to happen. Registration can be authenticated or un-authenticated depending on how the server and phone is configured.

Unauthenticated Registration

For unauthenticated registration, the following parameters must be set on the phone: Terminal number or Terminal name (see Section 3.5.1.1, “Terminal Identity”), SIP server and SIP regis- trar address (see Section 3.5.5.1, “SIP Addresses”). Moreover, the correct Server type must be set. Additionally, the expiry time of a registration can be specified by Registration timer.

In unauthenticated mode, the server must pre-authenticate the user. This procedure is server specific and is not described here.

Authenticated Registration

The phone supports the digest authentication scheme and requires some parameters to be configured in addition to those for unauthenticated registration. By providing a User ID and a Password which match with a corresponding account on the SIP registrar, the phone authen- ticates itself. Optionally, a Realm can be added. This parameter specifies the protection domain wherein the SIP authentication is meaningful. The protection domain is globally unique, so that each protection domain has its own arbitrary usernames and passwords.
