Before you begin
Verify that you have the following information about your SIP environment:
• The DNS name or IP address of the SIP server. You can define up to three servers.
• The transport protocol and port used in your SIP environment.
• (Optional) The model of the SIP server.
• For the SIP infrastructure that requires a SIP user authentication, credentials for
authenticating XT Series to the SIP server.
If configuring from the endpoint, you must first enable advanced configuration, as described in
Enabling Advanced Maintenance on the XT Series on page 151.
Procedure
1. Access the SIP settings. From the XT Series web interface, select Administrator
Settings > Protocols > SIP. From the endpoint's main menu, select Configure >
Advanced > Protocols > SIP.
2. Enter your system’s name (or number) and the SIP server’s information, used to register
and authenticate the XT Series with the SIP server:

Parameter Description
User Enter the system name (or number). The system is
registered to the SIP server under this name.
When connecting over SIP, this name is displayed on
the monitors participating in the videoconference (for
example, John-Smith, or 9th-Floor-Room) .
Authentication Name If necessary, enter the name for authenticating the XT
Series with the SIP server. It can be the same as the
User parameter.

Enable registering the system to the SIP server by
selecting Yes for each server you are defining.
For redundant SIP deployments, you can enter
information for up to three SIP servers. The XT Series
uses Server 1 as the default SIP server. If Server 1
fails, the system uses Server 2, and so on.
Server 1 DNS Name
Server 2 DNS Name (Optional)
Server 3 DNS Name (Optional)
Enter the DNS name or IP address of each SIP server,
used to register the endpoint.
