Trunk settings and verification

Review advanced carrier settings before saving or troubleshooting a trunk.

Open a trunk with its pencil button and select 2. Advanced, or continue from the creation form. Use values supplied by your carrier. The screenshots show the unsaved custom-carrier form.

  1. 1. Check the connection

    Set Transport and Port. Fill in From domain, outbound proxy, From user, Contact user, Match IP and Match port only where your carrier requires them.

  2. 2. Review media and number formatting

    Order the supported Codecs using the arrows and add or remove codecs to match your carrier. Choose the required DTMF method. Review outbound caller ID and the inbound/outbound number formats. Controls marked as organisation-managed must be changed by your organisation administrator.

  3. 3. Review transfers, headers and capacity

    Choose the carrier-supported Transfer mode: SIP REFER, Bridge or Re-INVITE. Review whether transferred calls need a separate recording. Check the SIP header switches and set Max concurrent calls if a limit is required. Click Save trunk after reviewing your changes.
