Vertical Communications TeleVantage 7.5 manual Configuring a SIP phone

Configuring a SIP phone

If you have a SIP phone external station, you can configure its behavior and customize your SIP URI, as follows:

1.Choose Tools > Options. The Options dialog box opens.

2.Click the Phone \ Station Features tab.

3.In Call Using, your company’s SIP dialing service should be selected. If your company has more than one SIP dialing service, you can choose a different one here.

4.Under Phone’s SIP address, choose whether the phone is registered with TeleVantage or not, as follows:

Q Registered to SIP span. Choose this if your SIP phone is registered with TeleVantage, so that you can pick up the phone and dial TeleVantage extensions directly. Select the IP address of a TeleVantage SIP span from the drop-down list. When you configure your SIP phone, you should set the phone’s SIP Server or Domain field to that IP address.

In the Userinfo field, enter the userinfo portion of the user’s SIP URI (for example “vwilliams” in “sip:vwilliams@www.vertical.com”). This field uniquely identifies the phone on the TeleVantage SIP span, so whatever text is specified here must also be entered in the SIP phone's Username field when you configure the phone.

QSIP URI. Choose this method if your SIP phone is registered with a non-TeleVantage SIP service such as <www.broadvoice.com> or fwd.pulver.com, and you want to receive calls from TeleVantage too. Enter the phone’s SIP URI, for example, “sip:518589@fwd.pulver.com.” Note that when using this option, calls from the phone will be placed over the phone’s SIP service, not TeleVantage, so you cannot dial TeleVantage extensions without first dialing the TeleVantage Server's SIP span address.

5.Check Stutter dial tone to have the phone alert you to new voice messages by stuttering the dial tone when you first pick up.
