Configuring Basic Sip Settings - Avaya XT Series Deployment Manual

Configuring Basic SIP Settings

About this task
This section explains how to register your XT Series to the SIP server.
The XT Series can function in a SIP environment, where endpoint names or numbers are
managed by SIP servers, not gatekeepers. You can dial an endpoint by entering its name or
number like 1234 or joe_smith, rather than remembering its IP address, where the SIP server
routes the call correctly. To do this, the SIP server must register all endpoints to maintain the
mapping list of names/numbers and endpoints to successfully route calls.
Before you begin
Access the quick setup wizard from the endpoint or web interface, as described in
Basic Settings with the Quick Setup Wizard
Verify that you have the following information about your SIP environment:
• The DNS name or IP address of the SIP server. You can define up to three servers.
• For the SIP infrastructure that requires a SIP user authentication, credentials for
authenticating XT Series to the SIP server.
Procedure
1. Enter information for the SIP server, as described below.
In redundant SIP deployments, the XT Series uses this server as the default SIP server.

If necessary, enter the name for authenticating the XT Series with
the SIP server. It can be the same as the User parameter.
If necessary, enter the password for authenticating your XT Series
with the SIP server.
Enable registering the system to the SIP server by selecting Yes.
For redundant SIP deployments, you can enter information for up
to three SIP servers, as described in
SIP Server on page 133.
