What is SIP?

SIP is an application layer (signaling) protocol that is used to create, modify and terminate sessions for voice, for one or more participants.

SIP User Agents

• SIP client: makes, accepts and terminates SIP call requests

• SIP server: administrates registration and routes SIP call requests by redirect or proxy

Connect a SIP telephone line to your matrix. This allows you to talk to an external telephone from a panel.

Note:

The E-IPA card or LQ device must be connected to the same network as the SIP server. The devices must be able to contact the SIP server over the network. See your Network Administrator if you have any connectivity problems.

If connecting over separate networks, you must use port forwarding rules. For more information, see the LQ User Guide.
