<h4>SIP</h4>
|
|
SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) is a protocol used in VoIP, allowing users to make voice and video calls.
|
|
|
|
<h2>How do I use this?</h2>
|
|
<p>First you are going to need a SIP account (which you get when you get a number) and your credentials that look like this:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><b>SIP address:</b> 2013125@tel.tilde.org.nz</li>
|
|
<li><b>Password:</b>reallysecurepassword</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>Once you get a SIP account you need a SIP client to use it, there are many out there but we suggest these ones:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><a href="https://www.linphone.org/">Linphone</a></li>
|
|
<li><a href="https://www.microsip.org/">Microsip</a> (windows only but works with wine on linux)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>Now that you have a SIP account and a SIP client we are ready to get started. This step by step guide uses the Linphone client</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>
|
|
When you open Linphone for the first time you'll get something like this:

</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Click on <b>Use a SIP account</b> and fill the fields with your credentials:
|
|

|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Click on the top left corner and select tel.tilde.org.nz:
|
|
<img src="../img/3.png" alt="3">
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Done! You are now connected and succesfully set up your client, to make a call just search their number on the top search bar:
