12 1 Adrian Georgescu
Using your SIP device you can call any other SIP address reachable over the Internet in the form of user@domain. If you use a SIP enabled phone featured only with a classic 12 keys keypad you will experience a crippled service as is either impossible or hard to dial other SIP addresses with it.

> Calls to SIP addresses containing only numbers and starting with a zero are always routed to the PSTN gateways. This is an arbitrary convention configured in the platform for detecting calls meant to be routed to PSTN.

h2. NAT Traversal
31 66 Adrian Georgescu
 
32 66 Adrian Georgescu
33 1 Adrian Georgescu
Practically you do not need to set anything special in the client, NAT traversal is solved automatically by the SIP2SIP server infrastructure. We recommend actually that you check to have disabled all client features related to NAT traversal:
34 1 Adrian Georgescu
35 66 Adrian Georgescu
# Disable STUN as is unreliable  and leading to unexpected results
36 66 Adrian Georgescu
# Disable any SIP ALG support in the border router, most of the so called 'SIP enabled' routers on the market today are "simply broken":http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Routers+SIP+ALG
37 1 Adrian Georgescu
38 66 Adrian Georgescu
Beware that corporate firewalls that have an explicit policy against SIP or poorly implemented "SIP ALGs":http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Routers+SIP+ALG may still block your SIP signaling and/or media traffic. You need un-restricted access to the following ports used by SIP2SIP infrastructure:
39 1 Adrian Georgescu
40 66 Adrian Georgescu
| *Port range* | *Protocol* | *Description* | *Application* |
41 66 Adrian Georgescu
| 5060 | UDP | SIP signaling | OpenSIPS - SIP Proxy/Registrar/Presence Agent |
42 66 Adrian Georgescu
| 50000:60000 | UDP | RTP media | !MediaProxy  - RTP media relay |
43 66 Adrian Georgescu
| 2855 | TLS | MSRP media | MSRP relay - MSRP media relay |  
44 66 Adrian Georgescu
| 443 | TLS | XCAP storage | OpenXCAP - Presence policy management  |

h2. SIP Address
48 66 Adrian Georgescu
49 66 Adrian Georgescu
50 1 Adrian Georgescu
When you register a SIP account on SIP2SIP, a SIP address under @sip2sip.info domain is automatically allocated to you. You must provide this SIP address to those that want to reach you. SIP protocol uses the same identifier format as an email address in the form of user@domain. Actually, you can use the same address for both email messaging and SIP applications providing that you have control upon your own domain, its DNS records and access to a service like SIP2SIP.
51 1 Adrian Georgescu
52 1 Adrian Georgescu
To create SIP addresses under your own domains, you can register or transfer for a fee your Internet domains at https://mdns.sipthor.net. On the same platform you can provision your DNS zones and records required for SIP services and create your own SIP accounts. The number of SIP addresses you may create is limited by a fair use policy dependent on the general use of the platform.

h2. Presence
83 66 Adrian Georgescu
84 57 Adrian Georgescu
SIP2SIP provides a SIP presence agent that handles SUBSCRIBE and PUBLISH methods for presence events.
85 59 Adrian Georgescu
86 66 Adrian Georgescu
# To publish your presence send PUBLISH for *Event: presence* to your own SIP address, containing the body describing your presence information in PIDF format
87 66 Adrian Georgescu
# To subscribe to a SIP address, send a SUBSCRIBE message for *Event: presence*
88 66 Adrian Georgescu
# To subscribe to a list of SIP addresses (a.k.a. rls-services), send a SUBSCRIBE message for *Event: presence* containing an extra header: *Require: eventlist*
89 66 Adrian Georgescu
# To monitor who has subscribed to your presence information you must send SUBSCRIBe for *Event: presence.winfo* to your own SIP address
90 66 Adrian Georgescu
# To allow others to subscribe to your published information you must use XCAP protocol for manipulating *pres-rules* policy document 
91 66 Adrian Georgescu
# To store your buddy list on the server you must use XCAP protocol for manipulating *resource-lists* and *rls-services* documents

h2. Calls to PSTN network 
94 65 Adrian Georgescu
95 66 Adrian Georgescu
96 66 Adrian Georgescu
You can call to the classic telephone network (a.k.a. PSTN) after you have purchased credit. Price list for dialing to PSTN destinations is available "here":https://mdns.sipthor.net/sip_rates.html. The call costs are logged in the Credit section of your "SIP settings page":http://x.sip2sip.info. To add credit to your SIP account at http://x.sip2sip.info?tab=credit 
97 66 Adrian Georgescu
98 61 Adrian Georgescu
To dial a PSTN destination dial + or 00 in front of the actual number including country code. The number must be a fully qualified E.164 number (country code + network number + subscriber number). First an ENUM lookup is attempted. If a SIP destination is found, the call will be routed to it, if ENUM lookup does not return a valid SIP address, the call is directed to a PSTN gateway. 
99 61 Adrian Georgescu
100 61 Adrian Georgescu
To set your caller id please open a ticket in the support interface. Caller id presentation works depending on the support for this feature of all intermediate gateways to the destination, it is not possible to guarantee its working.
101 61 Adrian Georgescu
102 61 Adrian Georgescu
To limit fraud in case of lost account credentials, a maximum of 2 simultaneous calls are permitted.

h2. Calls from PSTN network 
112 66 Adrian Georgescu
113 1 Adrian Georgescu
114 1 Adrian Georgescu
As you own a publicly reachable SIP address, you may receive calls from any SIP device that knows your address including a PSTN gateway.  You can receive calls from PSTN if you own a telephone number (not provided by SIP2SIP) and if the SIP gateway provider that handles that number can translate that number into your SIP address. Technically, if you number is in ENUM e164.arpa or e164.org trees you can simply map your ENUM number to your SIP address yourself. Any ENUM ready gateway will be able to automatically find the SIP address you configured for your ENUM number.
