Ping minThe minimum acceptable SIP ping time.
Ping maxThe maximum acceptable SIP ping time.
Contact in pingHandling of contact settings within SIP pings.
Expire secondsThe time in seconds before a SIP registration expires and needs renewal.
Retry secondsThe interval in seconds before retrying a failed registration attempt.
Distinct toDetermines whether calls should be handled based on distinct ‘To’ headers.
ExtensionThis parameter is used to control the ‘Contact’ information in SIP registration. If the default behavior registers as gw+gateway_name@ip and causes issues, setting extension here will enforce the format extension@ip. If the extension is blank, it defaults to username@ip. The ‘Contact’ header will be sent as: Contact: <sip:9988776655@7.7.7.7:7080>
Extension in contactThis parameter is used to control the ‘Contact’ information in SIP registration. If the default behavior registers as gw+gateway_name@ip and causes issues, setting this parameter to true will enforce the format extension@ip. If the extension is blank, it defaults to username@ip. The ‘Contact’ header will be sent as: Contact: <sip:9988776655@7.7.7.7:7080>
Caller id in fromThis controls whether the Caller ID (CID) is placed in the From header of SIP messages.This ensures that the Caller ID is included in the From header, which some SIP providers or devices require for proper identification.
Sip cid typeIt defines how Caller ID (CID) is presented in SIP signaling. It controls where the caller ID information is placed in the SIP headers
Contact ParamsThis setting defines custom parameters added to the ‘Contact’ header in SIP messages. It is useful for registering endpoints with additional parameters in the ‘Contact’ header, which may be required by some service providers. For example: foo=bar;rinstance=abc123. The ‘Contact’ header will be sent as: Contact: <sip:extension@192.168.1.100:5060;foo=bar;rinstance=abc123>
