How can I assign phone number to user?

Post by eeX »

I have one very stupid question.

How can I assign phone number to user?

For example -

I created user alex and set password.
I want Alex's phone use number 123.
I want nobody else can use it.

How can I associate alex username and phone number 123 ???

are you using sip server or pbx?

in sip server, when phone is registered, its phone number is shown at "Registered Clients", and use "User Authentication" to set pw the same as the one at phone side, and turn REGISTER Authentication on under tab "configuration"/sip

in pbx, the user password is for retrieving its voicemail

Thanks for info.

I use SIP Server.

I do not have problems with password but with usernames.

I can register name like BOB and call it from softphone.
I can register digital name like 333 and call it from softphone as well as from hardphone.

But seems I can't register name Bob and assign phone number 333 to it to be able call bob@domain or simple 333 number.

BTW - where can I find GOOD and USEFUL documentation for Brekeke SIP Server ???

And the last stupid question -

Seems everebody who knows authorization name (login) and password can choose any user id (phone number) they want and admin can't force them to use predefined id.

Correct?

If you want to restrict it, you need to set the following.

----------------
Go to [Configuration] -> [SIP]
[Auth-user=user in "From:" ] = "Yes".
----------------

It is good idea to read the document again..

Thanks a lot for an answer.

Brekeke SIP Server Administrator’s Guide really is not Administrator’s Guide - its semms like glossary.

You can read where to write some settings but does not tell WHY use one or another.

I can successfully setup testing environment in simple LAN but now should test in more complex environment.

I have 2 subnets - A (10.10.10.x) and B (192.168.x.x)
Brekeke SIP Server located @ A subnet and have local Ip Address 10.10.10.10
It will have REAL IP address as well (88.88.88.88) and DNS record (host.domain.net)
I use firewall and will use PAT to map 10.10.10.10 ports to 88.88.88.88 ports.

Clients from subnet A have direct local access to SIP server.
Clients from subnet B have access to SIP server via firewall using real address (88.88.88.88).

I want clients from both subnets will be able to connect to SIP Server and communicate each over.

How could I set this up?

Should I send outbound to proxy or to domain?
Should I use real IP address (88.88.88.88) in user id or hostname (host.domain.net)?
Probably I have to enter some records at my DNS server?
Should I use Multiple Domains mode?
Should I use SIP SERVER Interface address?

So A LOT of stupid stuff I should check and the WORST - I can't find any manual or implementation example to read and analyze.
