2.3 Configuring Bria
Setting up Accounts
After obtaining SIP account information from your VoIP service provider, you can set up Bria accounts.
Set up the SIP Account
1. When the softphone appears, click the Go to Account Settings link. The SIP Account window appears.
2. In the Account tab, complete the User Details area with the information obtained from your VoIP service
provider.
3. Complete the remaining tabs as specified by your service provider or to suit your setup. Settings that you
may need to change immediately include:
• Account tab, Domain Proxy area.
• Topology tab, if your computer is on a network and/or behind a firewall.
For more information, see page 54.
4. Click OK; the account is created and registered (enabled).
Set up an XMPP Account
If you already have an XMPP account independent of Bria (for example, a Gmail™ webmail service account),
you can create an account in Bria and pull your contacts into the Bria contact list. You can then IM these
contacts directly from Bria.
5. Choose Softphone > Account Settings again. This time the Account Settings window appears, showing the
SIP account you have already set up.
6. Click Add > New XMPP Account. The XMPP Account window appears.
7. Complete the window with the information obtained from your XMPP service provider. Typically you only
have to complete the User Details. For more information, see page 53.
8. Click OK. The XMPP account is registered (enabled).
In a few seconds you will see all the existing contacts from your XMPP account appear in the Bria contact list,
in a new group.
