Note: For FXS ports, when the device is required to send a new request with the
‘Authorization’ header (for example, after receiving a SIP 401 reply), it uses
the user name and password from the Authentication table. To use the
username and password from the User Info file, change the parameter
‘Password’ from its default value.
An example of a User Information file is shown in the figure below:
Figure 7-1: Example of a User Information File
Note: The last line in the User Information file must end with a carriage return (i.e.,
by pressing the <Enter> key).
The User Information file can be loaded to the device by using one of the following
methods:
îš„ ini file, using the parameter UserInfoFileName (described in ''Auxiliary and
Configuration Files Parameters'' on page 496)
îš„ Web inte
rface (see ''Loading Auxiliary Files'' on page 170)
îš„ Automatic up
date mechanism, using the parameter UserInfoFileURL (refer to the
Product Reference Manual)
Each PBX extension registers separately (a REGISTER message is sent for each entry
only if AuthenticationMode is set to Per Endpoint) using the"Global phone number" in the
From/To headers. The REGISTER messages are sent gradually. Initially, the device sends
requests according to the maximum number of allowed SIP dialogs (configured by the
parameter NumberOfActiveDialogs). After each received response, the subsequent
request is sent. Therefore, no more than NumberOfActiveDialogs dialogs are active
simultaneously. The user name and password are used for SIP Authentication when
required.
