Telephony
Configuring a VoIP account
To configure VoIP accounts you need the relevant information about your provider for Internet
telephony. Provider profiles with the general provider data are available to download from the
Gigaset configuration server for the main VoIP providers.
¤
In the Connection name or number field enter a name of your choice or the phone number for
this connection.
Personal provider data
In both cases of manual configuration, with and without a provider profile, you now enter the per-
sonal registration data that you have received from your VoIP provider.
¤
Enter the following data:
– Authentication name
– Authentication password
– User name
– Display name
Depending on phone system further authentication data may be requested.
Advanced settings
You can find further parameters for configuring your VoIP connection under Advanced settings.

General provider data
Domain
Specify the last part of your SIP address (URI).
Example: Example: For the SIP address 987654321@provider.de you would enter provider.de.
Proxy server address
The SIP proxy is your VoIP provider's gateway server. Enter the IP address or the DNS name of your
SIP proxy server.
Example: myprovider.com.
Proxy server port
Enter the number of the communication port that the SIP proxy uses to send and receive signal-
ling data (SIP port). Port 5060 is used by most VoIP providers.
Registration server
Enter the IP address or the DNS name of your registrar server. The registrar is needed when the
phone is registered. It assigns your SIP address (username@domain) to the public IP address/port
number your phone uses to log in. With most VoIP providers, the registrar server is identical to the
SIP server.
Example: reg.myprovider.de.
Registration server port
Enter the communication port used on the registrar. Port 5060 is used in most cases.
Registration refresh time (sec.)
Enter the time intervals at which the phone should repeat the registration with the VoIP server (SIP
proxy) (a request will be sent to establish a session). The repeat is required so that the phone's
entry in the tables of the SIP proxy is retained and the phone can therefore be reached. The repeat
will be carried out for all activated VoIP phone numbers. The default is 180 seconds.
If you enter 0 seconds, the registration will not be repeated periodically.
