Terminals

The section Client configuration > Terminals allows creating new SIP credentials that can be used by multiple SIP devices to place and receive calls from IvozProvider.

The best way to understand this section is creating a new item and see the fields that must be filled.

Login information

Name

Username that will use the terminal during the SIP authentication phase with IvozProvider.

Password

Password that will use the terminal to answer the SIP authentication challenge. You can use the automatic password generator to fulfill the secure password requirements.

Connection configuration

Allowed/Disallowed codecs

Determines what audio and video codecs will be used with the terminal.

CallerID update method

Choose the SIP method the terminal prefers to received the session update information: INVITE or UPDATE. The help hint can be used as guide to configure different terminal manufacturers. Use INVITE in case of doubt.

Enable T.38 passthrough

If set to ‘yes’, this SIP endpoint must be a T.38 capable fax sender/receiver. IvozProvider will act as a T.38 gateway, bridging fax-calls of a T.38 capable carrier and a T.38 capable device.

RTP Encryption

If set to ‘yes’, call won’t be established unless it’s possible to encryption its audio. If set to ‘no’, audio won’t be encrypted.

Provisioning

Terminal model

Determines the provisioning type that will receive this terminal. The section terminal provisioning will explain in depth the different models for automatic provision. If your device does not require provisioning, just select Generic.

MAC

Optional field that is only required if you plan to use IvozProvider terminal provisioning. This is the physical address of the network adapter of the SIP device.

Note

For most of devices that doesn’t require provisioning just filling username and password will be enough.

Hint

Once the terminal has been created, most devices will only require the name, password and Client SIP domain in order to place calls.
