Introduction: Simplify Your SIP Setup
Every modern business relies on SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) to power its communication — from VoIP phones and softphones to PBX systems and call center software. But while SIP technology enables flexibility and scalability, the setup process can often be confusing, especially when dealing with multiple devices or providers.
That’s where Opentact makes a difference. It eliminates the complexity of SIP configuration by providing a secure, cloud-native environment that lets you register and manage your SIP devices in minutes — without specialized hardware or technical headaches.
Whether you’re connecting a SIP desk phone, a softphone app, or an entire PBX infrastructure, this guide walks you through exactly how to get your devices up and running with Opentact.
Understanding SIP Registration
Before jumping into the setup, let’s quickly clarify what SIP registration means.
When a SIP device (like an IP phone or app) connects to a SIP server, it “registers” itself by sending credentials — typically a username, password, and domain. This allows the SIP server to know where the device is located on the network, enabling it to route incoming and outgoing calls correctly.
Think of SIP registration as introducing your device to the communication network — once registered, your device becomes part of your Opentact ecosystem, ready to make and receive calls instantly.
Step 1: Log in to Your Opentact Dashboard
Start by logging into your Opentact account at www.opentact.org.
Once inside, you’ll see a clean, user-friendly dashboard that gives you access to all your communication tools — including SIP management, routing, SMS, analytics, and APIs.
Navigate to the SIP Management section, where you’ll configure and manage your SIP domains and users.
Step 2: Create or Select Your SIP Domain
A SIP domain is your virtual communication space — similar to an email domain but for voice traffic. It acts as your personalized SIP identity under the Opentact platform.
You can either:
Use an existing SIP domain (if already created), or
Create a new one directly from your dashboard.
When creating a new SIP domain, Opentact automatically assigns you a secure hostname (e.g., yourbusiness.opentact.cloud), which you can customize for branding or organizational use.
Once your domain is ready, you’ll use it during the registration process for all your devices.
Step 3: Add SIP Users (Endpoints)
Each device or softphone requires a SIP user account — a unique set of credentials that identifies it on the network.
To create a SIP user:
Go to SIP Users within your chosen domain.
Click “Add New User.”
Assign a username (like “sales01” or “support_agent1”).
Generate a strong password (Opentact can do this automatically).
You can create as many SIP users as needed, whether for a single department or an entire global workforce.
Step 4: Configure Your SIP Device
Now it’s time to connect your physical or software-based SIP device.
You’ll need three essential details from your Opentact account:
SIP Server / Domain: The unique Opentact SIP domain (e.g., yourdomain.opentact.cloud).
Username: The SIP user ID you just created.
Password: The associated secure password.
Depending on your device, follow these basic steps:
For IP Phones: Access the phone’s web interface → enter SIP credentials → save and reboot.
For Softphones (like Zoiper, MicroSIP, or Linphone): Enter credentials in the account setup section → click register → wait for confirmation.
For PBX Systems (like FreePBX or 3CX): Add Opentact as a trunk provider using your SIP domain → register user → apply changes.
Once complete, your device will show as “Registered” on the Opentact dashboard — meaning it’s now active and ready to handle calls.
Step 5: Test Your Registration
To confirm successful setup:
Make a test call using your newly registered SIP device.
Check for proper call routing, audio quality, and stability.
Verify that inbound calls are correctly reaching the device.
If you see instant call connection and clear audio, your registration is complete!
If not, Opentact provides built-in diagnostic tools and live logs to help identify and fix issues quickly — such as incorrect credentials, NAT configuration, or network blocks.
Step 6: Scale and Secure Your SIP Environment
Once your first SIP device is successfully registered, you can expand confidently.
With Opentact, scaling is effortless — you can register dozens or even thousands of SIP endpoints under one account. Each device can be monitored in real time, giving you full visibility over:
Connection status and uptime.
Call activity and routing analytics.
Security logs and authentication attempts.
Speaking of security, Opentact is built for telecom-grade protection. All SIP traffic is encrypted using TLS and SRTP, ensuring your communication remains private and secure from interception or fraud.
