How to register a remote phone

There are 3 different ways to register a remote phone.

Register a phone through a VPN

• Establish a VPN between the phone/softphone and the IPBrick;
• Register the phone with the necessary data (account, password, IPBrick's IP, etc.).

Register a phone through a TLS certificate

• Create a certificate on IPBrick (Advanced Configurations » Telephony » TLS Management);
• Configure the phone on IPBrick as Remote (IPBrick.GT » Phones Management » Phone);
• Place the phone on an access class (IPBrick.GT » Functions » Outbound » Access class);
• Introduce the certificate on its respective phone and proceed with the usual register.

Note: Not all phones have an option to introduce a TLS certificate.

Register a phone (only if it has fixed public IP)

• Configure the phone on IPBrick as Remote (IPBrick.GT » Phones Management » Phone);
• Place the phone on an access class (IPBrick.GT » Functions » Outbound » Access class);
• Create a rule on the firewall, allowing traffic just to the phone's public IP.

Note: This last step is extremely important in which concerns to security issues.
