Q：How do I configure SIP Trunk?
A：Use an administrator account to log in to the web management system of a U1900 series
unified gateway，choose Trunk > Trunk Configuration > SIP to config SIP trunk. For details,

What's SIP Trunk?
The SIP trunk is a packet trunk based on the IP network. It is connected to the peer device through
the Ethernet cable.
Different from a physical channel defined by a circuit trunk, a SIP trunk defines a logical channel,
which solves the issues about interoperability authentication and call addressing between the local
office and the peer office.
Table 1-1 SIP transmission protocols
Protocol Description Local Port
UDP A connectionless transport layer protocol 5060 (mandatory)
that provides a simple but unreliable
transaction-oriented information
transmission service. UDP features less
resource consumption and higher
processing speed, but does not guarantee
that data packets can be sent to the
destination safely and completely.
TCP A connection-oriented, reliable IP-based 5060 (recommended)
transport layer protocol. The processing
speed of TCP is lower than that of UDP,
but TCP supports retransmission of lost
packets and data verification to ensure that
data packets can be sent to the destination
safely and completely.
TLS A cryptographic protocol that provides 5062 or 5063 (recommended)
communication security between two
communication application programs,
ensuring data confidentiality and integrity.

How do I configure SIP Trunk?

Configurations vary depending on the actual data plan. The following assumes that you need to:
Configure the SIP trunk. Set the office route number to 0, domain name of the peer device to pbx1,
IP address of the peer office to 172.16.15.87, transmission protocol to UDP, signaling port
number of the local and peer offices to 5060.
Step 1 Log in to the web management system.

 The default user name and configuration password are admin and Change_Me respectively.
Step 2 Choose Trunk > Trunk Configuration > SIP from the navigation tree.
Click Add A Peer Office in the SIP trunk configuration area.
The blue icon point:0 (the peer device) is displayed.
Click point:0 or the solid line between the local office and point:0, and set the parameters
according to actual situations and the parameter description on the page, as shown in Figure 1-1.
Figure 1-2 Configuring a SIP Trunk

If you use a TCP port that is not 5060 in SIP trunk communication, configure an FPGA flow control rule based on
the transmission protocol for the port, and set the data transmission flow control threshold to 1000 to prevent
traffic attacks on the port.

Table 1 describes the key parameters displayed on the page. For detailed description about the
parameters, see the
Web Management System Online Help.
Table 1-2 Key parameter description
Parameter Description
Domain name of the peer device Domain name that uniquely identifies
a peer device. This parameter is
mandatory, and the domain name must
be unique.
Transmission protocol type There are four types: UDP, TCP.
TLSServer and TLSClient.
Select office route number ID of the office route that a SIP trunk
belongs to.
Maximum number of restricted calls Maximum number of calls on a SIP
trunk. If the number of incoming and
outgoing calls routed through a SIP
trunk exceeds the maximum number,
the system automatically rejects new
calls.
Parameter Description
Number of trunk circuits Number of all trunk circuits of a SIP
trunk. Set this parameter based on the
actual networking scheme.
The maximum numbers of SIP trunk
circuits supported by the U1900 series
unified gateways are as follows:
 U1981/U1980：20000

 U1960：1000

 U1930: 300

 U1911/U1910：100
