SIP Authentication Support
These settings are used to define the type of authentication needed to access the server from a device that can make or
receive a SIP call. The authentication type for each user is specified in the SIP Authentication Type field in the Security
panel when adding or editing any user account (see image below).
Authentication Types
DISABLED
Prevents the user from accessing any SIP device.
NONE
When using a SIP device, the user does not need to authenticate to the Application Server, but still needs to be SIP
registered.
STATIC
The user is always SIP registered with the server and never needs to authenticate.
BluStar
Allows the user to use a BluStar 8000i terminal.
DIGEST
When using another SIP device, the user will need to authenticate on SIP registration.
Note:
BluStar 8000i terminals always attempt to log in using a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encrypted connection before reg-
istering to the SIP Registration Service. The authentication process does not rely on SIP, therefore the SIP authentication
settings can be left at the default values for BluStar 8000i terminal users. Users attempting to register using other SIP
User Agents (e.g., third party SIP phones) use standard SIP authentication methods
