users. The sessions can include voice and video elements. See About SIP Addresses on page 19.

1. Go to Setup > VoIP > SIP Settings.
2. Click Start to start the SIP Setup Assistant. For more information, see SIP Setup Assistant on page 15.
Or:
1. Go to Setup > VoIP > SIP Settings.
2. Select Enable SIP.
3. To allow the Axis product to receive calls, select Allow incoming SIP calls.
4. Enter the SIP port number and the SIP TLS port number. For more information, see Port Settings on page 15.
5. Select the protocols you want to enable for NAT traversal. See Network Address Translation (NAT) Traversal (port
forwarding) on page 15.
