Set up Your Phone

To use VoIP extensions, you need to register the extensions on your IP phones or soft phones.

We have tested a number of IP phones and softphones with OpenVox IPPBX. Below is an example of registering an extension on OpenVox IP Phone.

Register an Extension on OpenVox IP Phone

1.Log in the OpenVox IP Phone web interface, click Line > SIP tab.

2.From the Line drop-down list, select an available SIP line.

3.Check the line’s Activate option to Enabled.

4.Enter the extension information.

• User Name: Enter the extension number.
• Display Name: The name to be sent in a call request.
