2.2 Configuring Bria

First-time Startup

If Bria is not already running, start it as you would any other program. The Bria Login dialog appears with the
Profile set to “Manually configure login server”.

Set the profile to “No login required” and click Continue. The softphone GUI appears. (Login is used only in
enterprise deployments in which a system administrator has set up a provisioning server to automatically
configure Bria for you.)

Subsequent Startups

After the first-time startup, the Bria Login dialog will not appear if you selected the No login required profile.

(If you started up the first time with “No login required” but in fact you do need to log in, go to the menu and
choose Preferences. Click the Application tab and enable login. See page 61.)

Setting up Accounts

After obtaining SIP account information from your VoIP service provider, you can set up Bria accounts.

1.

From the menu bar, choose Bria > Preferences > Accounts. The Account list appears with one account (the
Mac Address Book account) enabled; see below.

Set up the SIP Account

2.

Click the + button and choose New SIP Account. The SIP Account window opens.

3.

In the General tab, complete the User Details area with the information obtained from your VoIP service
provider.

4.

Complete the remaining tabs as specified by your service provider or to suit your setup. Settings that you
may need to change immediately include:

General tab, Domain Proxy area.
