E Other Ways to Run X-Lite
E.1 From a Hyperlink
You can attach a hyperlink to a phone number or softphone address that, when clicked, starts X-Lite and dials
the number. Attach a hyperlink with this format:
<a href="sip:address_or_number">dial address_or_number</a>
For example:
<a href="sip:[email protected]">dial [email protected]</a>
X-Lite supports three protocols: sip, tel, and callto. For X-Lite to start dialing when a user clicks such links, the
user must configure X-Lite as their default phone via X-Lite’s Preferences, and then associate the protocols to
X-Lite.
Click
Select the
protocols and
click Save.
