3.1 SIP Account Properties – Account
Table 1: 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 The account number for the softphone account. For example, kpereira.
Domain For example, myVoipProvider.com.
Password The account password, which is not the same as the login password (if login is used).
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 18 for a third way to direct traffic.
Dial Plan The default plan is:
#1\a\a.T;match=1;prestrip=2;
See page 27.
