Managing SIP credentials

When sending a SIP request, Pexip Infinity may be challenged for authentication credentials by the host system or proxy.

The authentication challenge will include a realm that identifies the credentials that Pexip Infinity should use to respond to the challenge. The credentials to use will be provided separately by the administrator of the host system or proxy.

All realms, usernames and passwords are case sensitive.

To configure the SIP credentials used by Pexip Infinity for each realm, go to Call control > SIP credentials. The options are:

Option Description
Realm The realm defines the protection space of the host or proxy (such as its name or domain, e.g. sipproxy.example.com) that is challenging Pexip Infinity for authentication.
Username and Password The username and password presented by Pexip Infinity when responding to the authentication challenge for the given realm.
