Configuring the phone via the Web configurator

RTCP port

Specifies the local communication port that the phone should use to receive

voice data. Enter an even number between 1024 and 49152. If you enter an

odd number, the next lowest even number will be selected automatically

(e.g., you enter 5003, then 5002 is set automatically). The default port

number for voice transmission is 5001.

Account Settings

You need to set up a VoIP account with a VoIP provider for each VoIP phone

number. Enter the configuration data that is necessary for accessing your VoIP

provider's SIP service. You will receive this data from the VoIP provider.

Username

Enter the caller ID for your VoIP provider account. This ID is usually identical

to the first part of your SIP address (URI, your Internet phone number).
Example: If your SIP address is "[email protected]," enter

"987654321" as the

Username

.

Display Name

(optional)

Enter any name that should be shown in the other caller's display when you

call them via the Internet. All characters in the UTF8 character set (Unicode)

are permitted. The name must not exceed 32 characters.

Auth. name

Specify the registration or authentication ID agreed to with your VoIP pro-

vider. The registration ID serves as the access ID that your phone must spec-

ify when registering with the SIP proxy/registrar server. The

Auth. name

is

generally identical to the

Username

, i.e., to your Internet phone number.

Please note

If port forwarding is activated on your router for the ports that have been

registered as the SIP port (default 5060) and the RTP port (default 5004), it

is advisable to deactivate DHCP and assign the phone a static IP address

(otherwise you may not be able to hear the other party during VoIP calls).

IP address and subnet mask depend on the address range of the router. You

must also enter the standard gateway and DNS server. The IP address for the

router is generally entered here.
