Main Endpoint Settings
You can click button to add a new SIP endpoint, and if you want to modify existed endpoints, you can click butt on.
There are 3 kinds of registration types for choose. You can choose Anonymous, Endpoint registers with this gateway or This gateway registers with the endpoint.
You can configure as follows: If you set up a SIP endpoint by registration “None” to a server, then you can’t register other SIP endpoints to this server. (If you add other SIP
endpoints, this will cause Out-band Routes and Trunks confused.)
Figure 4-1-2 None Registration
For convenience, we have designed a method that you can register your SIP endpoint to your gateway, thus your gateway just work as a server.
Figure 4-1-3 Endpoint Register with Gateway
Also you can choose registration by “This gateway registers with the endpoint”, it’s the same with “None”, except name and password.
Figure 4-1-4 This Gateway Register with the Endpoint
Table 4-1-1 Definition of SIP Options
Options Definition Name A name which is able to read by human. And it’s only used for user’s reference. Username User name the end point use to authenticate with the gateway Password Password the endpoint will use to authenticate with the gateway. Allowed characters Registration Whether this endpoint will registers with this gateway. Hostname
or IP Address
IP address or hostname of the endpoint or 'dynamic' if the endpoint has a dynamic IP address. This will require registration. Notice: if the input here is hostname and your DNS has changed, you must reboot asterisk.
Transport This sets the possible transport types for outgoing. Order of usage, when the respective transport protocols are enabled, is UDP,
TCP, TLS. The first enabled transport type is only used for outbound messages until a Registration takes place. During the peer Registration the transport type may change to another supported type if the peer requests so.

Inband
If we should generate in-band ringing. Always use ‘never’ to never use in-band signalling, Even in cases where some buggy devices might not render it. Valid values: yes, no, never. Default: never.
Append user=phone to URI
Whether or not to add;’ user=phone’ to URIs that contain a valid phone number.
Add Q.850 Reason Headers
Whether or not to add Reason header and to use it if it is available.
Honor SDP Version
By default, the gateway will honor the session version number in SDP packets and will only modify the SDP session if the version number changes. Turn This option off to force the SDP session version number and treat all SDP data as new data. This is require for devices that send non-standard SDP packets (observed with Microsoft OC S).By default
This option is on.
Allow Transfers
Whether or not to globally enable transfers. Choosing ‘no’ will disable all transfers (unless enable in peers or users). Default is enabled.
Allow Promiscuous Redirects
Whether or not to allow 302 or REDIR to non-local SIP address .Note that promiscredir when redirects are made to the local system will cause loops since this gateway is incapable of performing a ‘hairpin’ call.
Max Forwards
Setting for the SIP Max-Forwards header (loop prevention).
Send TRYING on REGISTER
Send 100 Trying when the endpoint registers.

Max Datagram
In some cases,T.38 endpoints will provide a T38FaxMxDatagram value (during T.38 setup) that is based on an incorrect interpretation of the T.38 recommendation, and result in failures because Asterisk does not believe it can send T.38 packets of a reasonable size to that endpoint (Cisco media gateway are one example of this situation).In these cases, during a T.38 call you will see warring messages on The console/in the logs from the Asterisk UDPTL stack complaining about lack of buffer space to send T.38FaxMaxDatagram value specified by the other end[point, and use a configured value instead.
Fax Detect
FAX detection will cause the SIP channel to jump to the ‘faX’ extension (if exists) based one or more events being detected. The events that can be detected are an incoming CNG tone or an incoming T.38 re-INVITE request.

Smothing
Use an average of the last two PONG result to reduce falsely detected LAGGED host. The default is ‘no’.
Qualify Freq Ok
How frequently to ping the peer when everything seems to be OK, in milliseconds.
Qualify Freq not Ok
How frequently to ping the peer when it’s either;
LAGGED or UNAVAILABLE, in milliseconds. Port The port number the gateway will connect to at this endpoint. Encryption Enable IAX2 encryption. The default is no. Force
Encryption
Force encryption insures no connection is established unless both sides support encryption. By turning this option on, encryption
is automatically; turned on as well. The default is no. Trunk Max
Size
Defaults to 128000 bytes, which supports up to 800; calls of ulaw at 20ms a frame.
Trunk MTU With a large amount of traffic on IAX2 trunk, there is a risk of bad voice quality when allowing the Linux system to handle
fragmentation of UDP packets.
Depending on the side of each payload, allowing the OS to handle fragmentation may not be very efficient. This setting sets the
maximum transmission unit for AIX2 UDP trunking. The default is 1240 bytes which means if a trunk’s payload is over 1240
bytes for every 20ms it will be broken into multiple 1240 bytes messages. Zero disables this functionality and let’s the OS handle
fragmentation. Trunk
Frequency
How frequently to send trunk msgs (in ms). This is 20ms by default.
Trunk Time Stamps
Should we send timestamps for the individual sub_frames within trunk frames? There is a small bandwith use for these (less
than 1kbps/call), but they ensure that frame timestamps get sent end-to-end properly. If both ends of all your trunks go directly to
TDM, _and_your trunkfreq equals the frame length for your codecs, you can probably suppress these. The receiver must also
need to have it enabled. Min.
RegExpire
Minimum amounts of time that IAX2 peers can request as a registration interval (in seconds).
Max. RegExpire
Maximum amounts of time that IAX2 peers can request as a registration expiration interval(in seconds).

TCP Authentication Timeout
The maximum number of seconds a client has to authenticate. If the client does not authenticate before this timeout expires, the client will be disconnected.(default value is: 30 seconds).
TCP Authentication Limit
The maximum number of unauthenticated sessions that will be allowed to connect at any given time (default is: 50).
Enable Hostname Lookup
Enable DNS SRV lookups on outbound calls Note: the gateway only uses the first host in SRV records Disabling DNS SRV lookups disables the ability to place SIP calls based on domain names to some other SIP users on the Internet specifying a port in a SIP peer definition or when dialing outbound calls with suppress SRV lookups for that peer or call.
Enable Internal SIP Call
Whether enable the internal SIP calls or not when you select the registration option "Endpoint registers with this gateway".
Internal SIP Call Prefix
Specify a prefix before routing the internal calls.
Advanced: NAT Settings
Table 4-2-2 Definition of NAT Settings Options
Options Definition Local Network Format:192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0 or 172.16.0.0./12. A list of IP address or IP ranges which are located inside a NATed
network. This gateway will replace the internal IP address in SIP and SDP messages with the external IP address when a NAT exists between the gateway and other endpoints.
Local Network List
Local IP address list that you added.
Subscribe Network Change Event
Through the use of the test_stun_monitor module, the gateway has the ability to detect when the perceived external network address has changed. When the stun_ monitor is installed and configured, chan_sip will renew all outbound registrations when the monitor detects any sort of network change has occurred. By default this option is enabled, but only takes effect once res_stun_monitor is configured. If res_stun_monitor is enabled and you wish to not generate all outbound registrations on a network change, use the option below to disable this feature.
Match External Address Locally
Only substitute the exeternaddr or externhost setting if it matches
Dynamic Exclude Static
Disallow all dynamic hosts from registering as any IP address used for staticly defined hosts .This helps avoid the configuration error of allowing your users to register at the same address as a SIP provide.
Externally Mapped TCP Port
The externally mapped TCP port, when the gateway is behind a static NAT or PAI
External Address
The external address (and optional TCP port) of the NAT. External address=hostname [:port] specifies a static address[:port] to be used in SIP and SDP messages. Examples: External address=12.34.56.78 External address=12.34.56.78.9900
External Hostname
The external hostname (and optional TCP port) of the NAT. External Hostname=hostname[:port] is similar to “External address”. Examples: External Hostname=foo.dyndns.net
Hostname Refresh Interval
How often to perform a hostname lookup. This can be useful when your NAT device lets you choose the port mapping, but the IP address is dynamic. Beware, you might suffer from service disruption when the name server resolution fails.

Disallowed SIP Methods
When a dialog is started with another SIP endpoint, the other endpoint should include an Allow header telling us what SIP methods the endpoint implements. However, some endpoint either do not include an Allow header or lie about what methods they implement. In the former case, the gateway makes the assumption that the endpoint support all known SIP methods. If you know that your SIP endpoint does not provide support for a specific method, then you may provide a list of methods that your endpoint does not implement in the disallowed_ methods option. Note that if your endpoint is truthful with its Allow header, then there is need to set this option.
Shrink Caller ID The shrinkcallerid function removes '(', ' ', ')', non-trailing '.', and '-' not in square brackets. For example, the caller id value
555.5555 becomes 5555555 when this option is enabled. Disabling this option results in no modification of the caller id value, which is necessary when the caller id represents something that must be preserved. By default this option is on.
Maximum Registration Expiry
Maximum allowed time of incoming registrations and subscriptions (seconds).
Minimum Registration Expiry
Minimum length of registrations/subscriptions (default 60).
Default Registration Expiry
Default length of incoming/outgoing registration.
Registration Timeout
How often, in seconds, to retry registration calls. Default 20 seconds.
Number of Registration
Number of registration attempts before we give up.0=continue forever, hammering the other server until it accepts the registration. Default is 0 tries, continue forever.
Security
Table 4-2-5 Instruction of Security
Option Definition
Match Auth Username
If available, match user entry using the 'username' field from the authentication line instead of the 'from' field.
Realm
Realm for digest authentication. Realms MUST be globally unique according to RFC 3261. Set this to your host name or domain name.
Use Domain as Realm
Use the domain from the SIP Domains setting as the realm. In this case, the realm will be based on the request 'to' or 'from' header and should match one of the domain. Otherwise, the configured 'realm' value will be used.
Always Auth Reject
When an incoming INVITE or REGISTER is to be rejected, for any reason, always reject with an identical response equivalent to valid username and invalid password/hash instead of letting the requester know whether there was a matching user or peer for their request. This reduces the ability of an attacker to scan for valid SIP usernames. This option is set to 'yes' by default.
Authenticate Options Requests
Enabling this option will authenticate OPTIONS requests just like INVITE requests are. By default this option is disabled.
Allow Guest Calling
Allow or reject guest calls (default is yes, to allow). If your gateway is connected to the Internet and you allow guest calls, you want to check which services you offer everyone out there, by enabling them in the default context.

Table 4-3-4 Instruction of Jitter Buffer
Options Definition Jitter Buffer Global default as to whether you want the jitter buffer at all Force Jitter
Buffer
In the ideal world, when we bridge VoIP channels we don’t want to jitter buffering on the switch, since the endpoints can each handle this. However, some endpoints may have poor jitter buffers themselves, so this option will force to always jitter buffer, even in this case.
Max Jitter Buffers
A maximum size for the jitter buffer
Resyncthreshold When the jitter buffer notice a significant change in delay that continue over a few frames, it will resync, assuming that the
change in delay was caused by a timestamping mix-up. The threshold for noticing a change in delay is measured as twice the measured jitter plus this resync threshold.
Max Jitter Interps
The maximum number of interpolation frames the jitter buffer should return in a row. Since some clients do not send CNG/DTX frames to indicate silence, the jitter buffer will assume silence has begun after returning this many interpolations. This prevents interpolating throughout a long silence.
Jitter Target Extra
Number of milliseconds by which the new jitter buffer will pad its size. The default is 40, so without modification, the new jitter buffer will set its size to the jitter value may help if your network normally has low jitter, but occasionally has spikes.

Options Definition IAX Thread Count Establishes the number of iax helper thread to handle I/O IAX Max Thread Count Establishes the number of extra dynamic threads that may by spawned to handle I/O Max Call Number The ‘maxcallnumbers’ option limits the amount of call numbers allowed for each individual remote IP
address. Once an IP address reaches its call number limit, no more new connections are allowed until the previous ones close. This option can be used in a peer definition as well, but only takes effect for the IP of a dynamic peer after it completes registration.
MaxCallNumbers_Nonvalidated The ‘maxcallnumbers-nonvalidated’ is used to set the combined number of call numbers that can be
allocated for connections where call token validation has been disabled. Unlike the ‘maxcallnumbers’ option, this limit is not separate for each individual IP address. Any connection resulting in a non-call token validated call number being allocated contributes to this limit. For use cases, see the call should be sufficient in most cases.

Dial Patterns that will use this Route
A Dial Pattern is a unique set of digits that will select this route and send the call to the designated trunks. If a dialed pattern matches this route, no subsequent routes will be tried. If Time Groups are enabled, subsequent routes will be checked for matches outside of the designated time(s). Rules:
matches any digit from 0-9X
matches any digit from 1-9Z matches any digit from 2-9N
[1237-9] matches any digit in the brackets (example: 1,2,3,7,8,9)
: matches one or more dialed digits.wildcard
: Digits to prepend to a successful match. prepend
If the dialed number matches the patterns specified by the subsequent columns, then this will be prepended before sending to the trunks.
prefix: Prefix to remove on a successful match. The dialed number is compared to this and the subsequent columns for a match. Upon a match, this prefix is removed from the dialed number before sending it to the trunks.
match pattern: The dialed number will be compared against the prefix + this match pattern. Upon a match, the match pattern portion of the dialed number will be sent to the trunks
SDfR(Stripped Digits from Right): The amount of digits to be deleted from the right end of the number. If the value of this item exceeds the length of the current number, the whole number will be deleted.
RDfR( Reserved Digits from Right) :Designated information to be added to the right end of the current number. StA(Suffix to Add):Designated information to be added to the right end of the current number. Caller Name: What caller name would you like to set before sending this call to the endpoint. Native language charset is
allowable, e.g. Chinese charset, Latin charset.
Forward Number
What destination number will you dial? This is very useful when you have a transfer call.
Failover Call Through Number
The gateway will attempt to send the call out each of these in the order you specify.
You can create various time routes and use these time conditions to limit some specific calls.
Figure 5-1-4Time Patterns that will use this Route
If you configure like this, then from January to March, from the first day to the last day of these months, from Monday to Thursday, from 00:00 to 02:00, during this time (meet all above time conditions), all calls will follow this route. And the time will synchronize with your Sever time.

Groups
Sometimes you want to make a call through one port, but you don’t know if it is available, so you have to check which port is free. That would be troublesome. But with our product, you don’t need to worry about it. You can combine many Ports or SIP to groups. Then if you want to make a call, it will find available port automatically.

SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an application–layer protocol, which is used to manage and monitor network elements and exchange management information between network devices. By default SNMP uses port 161 for communication.
Since the inception SNMP, it embraces three versions: v1, v2c and v3. V1 and v2c are the most implemented version of SNMP; v3 is target at the high security when compare to its older versions. The gateway support private SNMP MIBs (private enterprise number) to access.
