Testing

To test SIP SIMPLE client SDK, you can use the Command Line Tools provided by the sipclients package. The Command Line Tools are compatible with MacOSX and Linux only.

Configuration

Manage global and SIP account settings used by middleware and Command Line Tools

Accounts

To use the Command Line Tools you need at least one SIP account. By default the Bonjour account is enabled and set as default. Using Bonjour account, you can initiate outbound sessions and receive incoming session on the local LAN. To use the Command Line Tools on the public Internet, you must setup at least a public SIP account. You can register a public SIP account for free at http://sip2sip.info

To add a new SIP account:

sip-settings -a add user@domain pasword

If you have multiple accounts, you can set the default as follows:

sip-settings -a default user@domain

It is recommended that you set the outbound proxy for the configured account to the SIP server address provided by the SIP service that provided the account. This typically facilitates the NAT traversal for media sessions that go outside of the local domains served by the SIP service provider that issued the account. Example for a sip2sip.info account:

sip-settings -a set xyz@sip2sip.info sip.outbound_proxy=proxy.sipthor.net
