SIP Address/Type
(SIP Only)
Select the format in which the SIP address is written:
• SIP URI - Uses the format of an E-mail address, typically
containing a user name and a host name: sip:[user]@[host]. For
example, sip:[e-mail].
Note: If the SIP Address field contains an IPv6 address, it must be
surrounded by square brackets, for example, [::1].
• TEL URI - Used when the endpoint does not specify the domain
that should interpret a telephone number that has been input by
the user. Rather, each domain through which the request passes
would be given that opportunity.
For example, a user in an airport might log in and send requests
through an outbound proxy in the airport. If the users enters “411”
(this is the phone number for local directory assistance in the United
States), this number needs to be interpreted and processed by the
outbound proxy in the airport, and not by the user's home domain. In
this case, tel: 411 is the correct choice.
Note: This field is removed from the dialog box when the ISDN/PSTN
protocol is selected.
Endpoint Website IP
Address

connection to it for management and configuration purposes.
This field is automatically completed the first time that the endpoint
connects to the Collaboration Server. If the field is blank it can be

Audio Only Select this check box to define the participant as a voice participant,
with no video capabilities.
Extension/Identifier
String
Dial-out participants that connect to an external device such as
Cascaded Links or Recording Links may be required to enter a
conference password or an identifying string to connect. Enter the
required string as follows:
[p]…[p][string]
For example: pp4566#
p - optional - indicates a pause of one second before sending the
DTMF string. Enter several concatenated [p]s to increase the delay
before sending the string. The required delay depends on the
configuration of the external device or conference IVR system.
String - enter the required string using the digits 0-9 and the
characters * and #. The maximum number of characters that can be
entered is identical to the H.323 alias length.
If the information required to access the device/conference is
composed of several strings, for example, the conference ID and the
conference password, this information can be entered as one string,
where pauses [p] are added between the strings for the required
delays, as follows:
[p]…[p][string][p]…[p] [string]...
For example: p23pp*34p4566#
