SIP addresses allow external callers to call users on the system via SIP URIs of the form <user>@<domain>. This feature must be enabled by the system administrator before being used.

To add a new SIP address

1. Log in to the Enswitch web interface.
2. Go to Features » SIP addresses.
3. Click the "New" button.
4. Enter the following:
• The SIP URI to be called. The user part is free-form letters, numbers, underscores, dashes, and dots, and must begin with a letter. The domain part must be one of the domains that the system administrator has enabled for SIP addresses.
• Optionally a description.
• The owner. This person may edit the SIP address even if they are not an administrator.
• Whether to screen calls. If set to yes, the person answering will be asked if they wish to accept the call.
• Optionally force the callerid. This should normally be set to "Original".
• Optionally the caller name. This allows users on a SIP telephone to see which number the call came from. If not set, the caller name supplied by the caller will be used.
• Whether the caller name setting above replaces the caller name supplied by the caller, prepends to it, or appends to it.
• Optionally hang up the call after a certain number of minutes.
• Which record group to use to record calls, if you have any.
• Which music to play to callers on hold, if you have any.
• Whether to display this number in the control panel.
• The destination to route calls to this SIP address to.
5. Click the "Save" button.
