Configure IP Authentication Trunk in PortSIP PBX
The Wavix IP Authentication trunk is configured as an IP-Based Trunk in PortSIP PBX.
Because IP-based trunks are shared resources, they must be created at the System Administrator level. Once configured, the trunk can be assigned to one or more tenants, along with their associated DID numbers.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure that:
A Wavix IP-authenticated SIP trunk has already been created and approved on the Wavix platform.
You are signed in as a PortSIP PBX System Administrator.
Your Wavix DID numbers are available and ready to be assigned.
Step 1: Open the Trunks Configuration Page
Sign in to the PortSIP PBX Web Portal as a System Administrator.
Navigate to Call Manager > Trunks from the left-hand menu.
Step 2: Add an IP-Based Trunk
Click Add to open the trunk type menu.
Select IP Based Trunk.
Step 3: Configure Basic Trunk Information
On the General Settings page, configure the following:
Name Enter a descriptive, friendly name for the trunk (for example,
Wavix-US-IP-Trunk).Brand From the Brand drop-down list, select the Wavix trunk closest to your deployment region (for example, Wavix – US).
Click Next to continue.
Step 4: Configure Trunk Options
On the trunk options page:
Max Concurrent Calls Defines the maximum number of simultaneous calls PortSIP PBX can establish using this trunk.
Set this value according to your Wavix account limits and expected traffic.
For new Wavix accounts, this may need to match the default concurrent call restriction.
Recommendation Keep all other settings at their default values unless you have specific routing, codec, or interoperability requirements.
Click Next to continue.
Step 5: Assign Tenants and DID Numbers
In this step, assign the trunk and DID numbers to tenants:
Select one or more tenants that are allowed to use this trunk.
Define the DID Pool to assign Wavix numbers to each tenant.
Important Rules
Each DID can be assigned to only one tenant.
A tenant can use only the DIDs included in its assigned DID pool for:
Inbound rules
Outbound rules
Outbound caller ID configuration
DID Pool Format Examples
The DID pool supports:
A single number
Multiple individual numbers
A range of numbers
Combined ranges and individual numbers
Click OK to save the trunk configuration.
Verification
After saving:
The trunk will appear in the Trunks list.
The Status will display Online.
This is expected behavior for IP-Based Trunks and does not indicate SIP registration in the traditional sense.
Next Steps
You can now proceed to:
Configure inbound call routing
Configure outbound call routing
Assign outbound caller IDs and test call flows
