Configuring SIP
In this section we'll be configuring our Asterisk to accept a SIP client, like a VoIP telephone or a softphone. The Book tells us that we should begin with a most simple sip.conf file, so we will:
[general] [1000] type=friend context=phones host=dynamic secret=Marilli0n
With this setup, and the secret password (in this example Marilli0n) we can easily test if the SIP phone works. OK, so we're guessing your Asterisk was running when you changed or created your sip.conf. Connect to Asterisk, and in the CLI, reload the diaplpan and SIP channel:
asterisk -rvvv *CLI> dialplan reload *CLI> sip reload
Configuring an X-Lite softphone
The configuration of an X-Lite is quite simple.
Configuring a SNOM360 softphone
From the SNOM site you can download a SNOM360 softfone.
Configuring IAX2
This concerns the inter-Asterisk eXchange protocol.
