SIP Account Properties – Topology

Send calls to voicemail if unanswered

Complete only if your VoIP service includes voicemail.

To send to voicemail after the specified number of seconds.

Your service provider may also provide a similar feature that is set up outside of X-Lite.
If so, make sure you do not enter competing information in X-Lite and in the service
provider’s user interface. For example, if you turn off this field, make sure the same
feature at your service provider is also turned off. Otherwise, all your calls will continue
to be forwarded.

Firewall traversal
mode

Leave the default (Auto detect). Or if you have problems making phone calls, contact your VoIP service
provider for information on their firewall traversal solution.

• Auto detect using ICE: Automatically determine the contact address for signaling traffic.

Advertise the local IP, public IP (discovered via STUN, if available), and media relay IP (discovered via
TURN, if available), and use these to automatically determine the best route for media traffic during
calls.

• Discover public IP address: Advertise the public IP address (discovered via STUN) for the contact

address for signaling traffic, and for the connection address for media traffic.

• Use media relay (TURN): Advertise the public IP address (discovered via STUN) for the contact address

for signaling traffic.

Advertise the address of a media relay server (discovered via TURN) for the connection address for
media traffic.

• None: Advertise the local IP address only for both signaling and media traffic.

Server address

• Empty: Discover the address of the firewall traversal server (the STUN or TURN server), if available,

using DNS SRV.

• Specified: Use the firewall traversal server specified as either an IP address or a fully qualified hostname.

Range of ports used
on local computer

The appropriate setting depends on your computer setup:

• Checked: If your computer is behind a restrictive firewall that only allows specific port ranges to be

used. Enter the range of ports to use for your SIP account. (You must also open those ports on your
firewall; refer to applicable firewall documentation for information.)

• Unchecked: If your computer is not behind a restrictive firewall.
