CounterPath Softphone and Generic SIP Handset

The use of Counterpath Softphones create a large security hole in the Allworx system, which opens the Allworx system up to Internet fraud.

For full security, you should use the Allworx Reach softphone. 
http://www.bestdealaw.com/category-s/52.htm



To set up a softphone or generic SIP handset follow these instructions. For this example we will setup a Counterpath X-Lite SoftPhone to work with the Allworx server. For other generic handsets you will need to see their documentation.

Download X-Lite here:
http://www.counterpath.com/x-lite.html

Note: In order for the softphone to register outside the local network you will need the public IP address.If the Allworx server is behind a firewall the proper ports will need to have been mapped/forwarded through the firewall to the Allworx server. see: "How do I setup a remote phone"

On the Allworx Administration page
  1. Click on Home --> Phone System --> Handsets.
  2. Click "Add New SIP Handset"
  3. Owner: Select an owner or leave {none}
  4. Extension: Optional. If this phone will recieve calls that are directed to a user's primary extension then leave blank. Also, leave blank if softphone user will only be placing calls. Otherwise, select a system extension to which
  5. the calls will ring the soft phone.
  6. Caller ID number: Use owners extension or Select from list
  7. Caller ID Name: What you want displayed to the called party.
  8. Model: Select "Generic SIP" from drop down list.
  9. Number of line: select 1
  10. Login ID: Specify Value "temp" at this time.
  11. Password: Also, Specify Value "temp" at this time.
  12. Click "Add"
  13. Find newly created handset and click on "Modify"
  14. Copy the value shown in the user ID field, should be a value in (5xxx) range.
  15. Specify the value as the login ID & Password. As a result the 3 fields User ID, Login ID, & the password will be the same.
Note: If this is an external handset put a checkmark in "This phone is behind a NAT/Firewall and needs traversal assistance"

Complete the changes by clicking on "Update".

In CounterPath X-Lite softphone

Click Softphone --> Account Settings.

Fill in with the value in (5xxx) range

Account name: 5xxx
User ID: 5xxx or *5xxx
Domain: (IP Address of the Allworx Server Public or Private)
Password: 5xxx
Display Name: (What you want displayed when you call out)
Authorization Name: 5xxx
Check "Register with domain and receive calls"
Click "Ok"

The softphone should now register with the Allworx server. Xlite should display "Account enabled phone is ready"
