How to Configure the Endpoints?

After successfully configuring the PortSIP PBX and SBC, and creating the tenants and extensions, you can now register the endpoints (WebRTC, mobile app, Windows Desktop app, IP Phone, and any SIP-based device) to the PBX. This will allow you to make and receive calls.
If you are using the PortSIP PBX v22.0 or higher, please follow the guide PortSIP ONE Guides to configure it.
If you are using the PortSIP PBX v16.x, please follow the guide PortSIP Softphone to configure it.
In this article, we assume the following configurations:
The PortSIP PBX and SBC are installed on a server with a public IP of 66.175.221.120 and a private IP of 192.168.1.72.
The PBX web domain uc.portsip.cc has been resolved to the PBX server public IP 66.175.221.120.
The PBX created UDP transport on port 5060, TLS transport on port 5061 over TLS, TCP transport on port 5063, and WSS transport on port 5065 in the SBC.
A tenant has been created with the SIP domain set up as test.io.
As per the above settings, after you sign in to the PBX as the system administrator, you will see the page like the screenshot below:
There are some rules for configuring the client endpoints for the above scenario:
Transport. It's the network transport for sending & receiving the SIP message in the PBX. For more details please read the article: Transport Management.
Outbound Proxy server. The PBX server IP refers to the Outbound Proxy Server in the client endpoints. If the client endpoint registers to PBX over the internet, use the public IP as the Outbound Proxy Server. You can also use uc.portsip.cc as the Outbound Proxy Server if registering to PBX over the internet since this domain has been resolved to the public IP; If registering to PBX from the LAN, use the private IP as the Outbound Proxy Server.
Outbound Proxy Server Port. The port of transport is created in the PBX or SBC. For example, if you want the endpoint registered to the PBX over TCP transport, then you will need to set 5063 for Outbound Proxy Server Port in the endpoint settings.
Domain. Also known as SIP domain or SIP server in the endpoint settings. It’s the SIP domain of the tenant that was created in PortSIP PBX - so just set the tenant’s SIP domain for Domain/SIP Domain/SIP server in the endpoint settings.
Just need to set the transport port for the Outbound Proxy Server Port only. Don’t set the transport port for the Domain in the endpoint settings. If the endpoint requires filling the port for the Domain, please fill in 0 for the domain port.
For popular IP phones such as Fanvil, Yelaink, SNOM, GrandStream, DinStar, ALE, and Htek, they can be auto-provisioned to register to the PortSIP PBX without the need to configure the IP phone manually. For more details, please read this article: Phone Device Management.
You can also enter the SIP user extension details on the IP Phone web portal to register the IP Phone or other SIP-based device/app.
For other SIP-based apps and IP Phones, you can configure them similarly to the above description.
