SIP domain name | The SIP subscriber's domain name. This field appears, and must be supplied, only if Call Agent signaling type is set to SIP and Number status is set to Normal, Ported to, or Non-geographic. Set this field to match the domain name configured on the SIP device; typically this is a DNS hostname that resolves to the MetaSwitch NE's virtual IP address, or the IP address of a Session Border Controller through which the device accesses the NE. |

This field appears, and must be supplied, only if Call Agent signaling type is set to SIP and Number status is set to Normal, Ported to, or Non-geographic. Choose Use default or enter the name of a SIP Media Gateway Model. To indicate that the Media Gateway Model should be selected by matching against the SIP User Agent string provided when the SIP device registers with the MetaSwitch NE, enter the string Derived from SIP User Agent. If you change the Media Gateway Model for a subscriber who is already in a call, this call continues using the existing model. The new model is used from the start of the subscriber's next call. |
