VoIP Wizard And Example

This chapter shows you how to configure your SIP account(s) and make a VoIP phone call.

4.1

Introduction

The ZyXEL Device has Voice over IP (VoIP) communication capabilities that allow you to

use a traditional analog telephone to make Internet calls. You can configure the ZyXEL

Device to use up to two SIP based VoIP accounts.

This section describes how you can set up your ZyXEL Device to call someone who is also

using a VoIP device. Make sure your telephone is connected to the

Phone 1

port before you

start with our example.

In the following figure,

A

represents your phone and

B

represents the phone of the person you

would like to call.

In order to make VoIP calls you need to register at least one SIP account on your ZyXEL

Device. You can register your SIP account in the

To call other VoIP users, you need to follow a similar process to ensure that their SIP

account is registered and active. After it is registered, they need to provide you with their

SIP number. You can use your VoIP service provider’s dialing plan to call SIP numbers.

You can also use your VoIP service provider’s dialing plan to call regular phone

numbers. You dial a prefix number, provided to you by your VoIP service provider,

followed by a regular phone number.
