Setting Up SIP Domains and Users in Opentact: Your Complete Step-by-Step Guide

 


Build a Modern Voice Infrastructure with Zero Complexity

If you’re running a business, building a SaaS product, or managing a call center, your SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) setup is the foundation of your entire voice communication system. But traditional PBX and open-source systems often make SIP configuration feel like a maze — manual configs, hardware dependencies, confusing extensions, and rigid limits.

Opentact simplifies all of it.

With Opentact, you can create SIP domains, add unlimited SIP users, assign numbers, build call flows, and manage everything from a clean, cloud-based dashboard — no command line, no PBX hardware, and no per-seat licensing.

This guide walks you through exactly how to set up SIP domains and users in Opentact, and how to use them to build a scalable, secure, future-proof communication system.

1️⃣ What Is a SIP Domain in Opentact?

A SIP domain is the main identity of your communication environment.

Think of it like your organization’s “voice workspace.”

Example: yourcompany.opentact.cloud

All your SIP users register through this domain, and you control how inbound and outbound calls flow across it.

A single Opentact account can have:

  • ✔ Unlimited SIP domains

  • ✔ Unlimited SIP users inside each domain

  • ✔ Unlimited flexibility in routing & configuration

This is perfect for:

  • Multi-branch companies

  • Call centers

  • SaaS apps provisioning users

  • Agencies managing multiple clients

  • Developers building voice products

2️⃣ Create Your SIP Domain

Inside your Opentact dashboard:

  1. Go to SIP Domains

  2. Click Create New Domain

  3. Choose a unique subdomain

  4. Set security, routing, and default behaviors

  5. Save the configuration

That’s it — your domain is now live.

Why Multiple SIP Domains Matter

You can use separate domains for:

  • Different departments (support.sales.opentact.cloud)

  • Different clients

  • Different brands

  • Staging vs production environments

Opentact gives you full multi-domain control without complexity.

3️⃣ Add SIP Users (Unlimited & Instant)

Each SIP user is an endpoint identity — perfect for:

  • Employees

  • Agents

  • Softphone users

  • AI voice bots

  • Internal applications

  • Developer test setups

To add users:

  1. Open your SIP Domain

  2. Click Create SIP User

  3. Assign a username

  4. Set a password

  5. Apply restrictions (optional)

  6. Save

These credentials can be used on any SIP device or softphone.

No Limits. No Licensing. No Extra Fees.

Most providers charge per user or per device. Opentact charges nothing extra — ever.

4️⃣ Connect SIP Users to Devices

Your SIP users can log in via:

  • IP desk phones

  • Softphones (Zoiper, Linphone, MicroSIP)

  • WebRTC (Opentact browser dialer)

  • Mobile VoIP apps

  • Custom-built SIP apps

  • AI-powered voice bots

All you need is:

  • SIP domain

  • Username

  • Password

Opentact handles registration, routing, and authentication automatically.

5️⃣ Add Phone Numbers and Routing Rules

Once your domain and users are active, you can assign numbers from Opentact’s inventory.

Route inbound calls to:

  • A specific SIP user

  • A call flow (IVR, recording, queue)

  • A group of users

  • An API response

  • A WebRTC endpoint

Route outbound calls with:

  • SIP outbound trunks

  • Headless API routing

  • Custom call flows

  • Least-cost routing configurations

Opentact gives you full control — without PBX complexity.

6️⃣ Secure Your SIP Environment

Opentact takes SIP security seriously with built-in protection:

  • TLS + SRTP for encrypted calls

  • IP whitelisting

  • Geo-blocking

  • Call rate limits

  • Fraud detection

  • Regulated caller ID policies

  • Traffic anomaly alerts

Even with unlimited SIP users, your system stays secure.

7️⃣ Monitor and Manage SIP Users at Scale

From the Opentact dashboard, you can oversee:

  • Real-time registration status

  • Active calls

  • Call logs

  • Outbound attempts

  • Recording activity

  • Per-user usage statistics

Everything is visible, searchable, and exportable — no need for external monitoring tools.

8️⃣ Automate SIP Provisioning with APIs (Developer Favorite)

For SaaS apps, CPaaS products, or large enterprises, Opentact’s APIs can automate everything:

  • Create new SIP domains

  • Provision SIP users dynamically

  • Fetch call logs
