3.3 SIP Account Properties – Account

Table 2: SIP Account Properties – Account

Field

Description

Account name

If desired, change the account name to something that is meaningful to you.

Protocol

Read-only. Always specifies SIP.

User Details

User ID

Typically the account number for the softphone account plus the domain. For example,
[email protected].

Password

Display name

This name is displayed in the Bria display.

Other people will see you as this name.

Authorization name

Typically not used in an enterprise environment. This name is useful if, for example, you
allow user IDs that are short and therefore easy to guess. The authorization name is used in
place of the user name to register the account with the SIP registrar.

Domain Proxy

Register with domain and receive
calls

Typically, this field is checked.

A situation in which this field is unchecked is, for example, if your level of service does not
include the ability to receive incoming calls. In this case, turning this field on may cause
registration to fail (when you close the Account Properties window), meaning that your Bria
cannot register.

Send outbound via

• Domain: If your VoIP service provider requires that traffic be directed to proxies that are

discovered via the domain.

• Proxy Address: If your VoIP service provider has an outbound proxy address and requires

that you provide the address to Bria. For the address enter a domain name (for example,
domain.com) or an IP address (for example, 123.456.789.012).

If you are using Bria in a test lab, it is possible that neither of these settings is suitable; see
page 30 for a third way to direct traffic.

Fields with a red asterisk are required
