Description
Name used by the phone for authentication if a registration is
challenged by the proxy server during initialization.
Password used by the phone for authentication if a registration is
challenged by the proxy server during initialization. If a value is not
configured for the Authentication Password parameter when
registration is enabled, the default logical password is used. The default
logical password is SIPmac-address, where mac-address is the MAC
address of the phone.
Identification as it should appear for caller identification. For example,
instead of jdoe@company.com appearing on phones that have caller
ID, you can specify John Doe in this parameter to have John Doe
appear on the callee end instead. If a value is not specified for this
parameter, the Name value is used.
Description phone number or e-mail address used when registering.
When entering a number, enter the number without any dashes. For
example, enter 555-0100 as 5550100. When entering an e-mail address,
enter the e-mail ID without the host name.
IP address of the primary SIP proxy server that will be used by the
phone. Enter this address in IP dotted-decimal notation.
Port number of the primary SIP proxy server. This is the port that the
SIP client will use. The default is 5060.
Name or number associated with the linex_name as you want it to
display on the phone LCD if the linex_name value exceeds the display
area. For example, if the linex_name value is the phone number
111-222-333-4444, you can specify 34444 for this parameter to have
34444 display on the LCD instead. Alternatively, if the value for the
linex_name parameter is the e-mail address
"username@company.com," you can specify the "username" to have
just the username appear on the LCD instead. This parameter is used
for display only. If a value is not specified for this parameter, the value
in the Name variable is displayed.
