Voice
Voice This chapter first describes the various options for configuration of the SIP voice service. It then provides detailed instructions for making telephone calls using VoIP (Voice over IP) or PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) services 5.1 SIP Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is a peer-to-peer protocol used for Internet conferencing, telephony, events notification, presence and instant messaging.
NetComm GatewayTM Series - ADSL2+ Wireless N300 Modem Router with VoIP • 5.1.2 A proxy is an intermediary program that acts as both a server and a client for the purpose of making requests on behalf of other clients. Requests are serviced internally or transferred to other servers. A proxy interprets and, if necessary, rewrites a request message before forwarding it Use SIP outbound proxy Select if required by your VoIP provider. Enter SIP Outbound proxy IP and port.
This screen contains SIP configuration settings used for debugging. Once settings are configured click Save/Apply to begin using the service. 5.2 Telephone Calls To make a call, simply dial the number. The dial plan (i.e. the dialled digits) is normally customized for each installation. The default dial plan allows for dialling of 4-digit extensions or direct IP addresses. Shorter extension numbers (e.g. 3-digits) can be dialled by completing the dial string with a final #.
