How to get a free DID SIP Trunk for testing your Unified Communications lab environment

  • [アーティクル]

I recently stumbled on a free offering for a DID SIP Trunk (inbound calls only) from a company called IP Communications.  Having already added a magicJack device to my Unified Communications lab for routing both inbound and outbound calls, an additional DID line was exactly what I needed for routing calls to my Exchange UM Auto Attendant.  The SIP Trunk offered by IP Communications requires SIP registration and also leverages the UDP transport protocol.  As such, a third party SIP Proxy or IP PBX (like pbxnsip) is required.

The following steps describe how to request a free DID SIP Trunk from IP Communications and how to add a new trunk in pbxnsip IP PBX to support it.

 

Sign Up at IPComms.Net

1. Visit https://www.ipcomms.net and click on the Sign Up link located at the top of the page.
2. From the packages offered, choose the Free US Phone Number option.

3. Complete the registration form (request the new SIP trunk to test features of your IP PBX).
4. Upon receiving the provisioning letter, locate the Incoming Settings details about your new SIP trunk.

 

Add New Trunk in pbxnsip

1. Launch Internet Explorer and navigate to your pbxnsip server (https://pbxnsip)
2. After authenticating to the system, click on the Domains option from the main menu
3. Next, click on the hyperlink for your pbxnsip domain (pbxnsip.contoso.com)
4. Under the Domain Administration menu, click on the Trunks tab
5. Locate the New Trunk option, then create a new SIP Registration trunk called IPComms Inbound

6. After creating the new IPComms Inbound trunk, click on the Edit option to edit its settings.
7. Edit the settings of the new trunk using information from the Incoming Settings of your provisioning letter.

Note: Please accept the default settings unless otherwise specified.  

Name : IPComms Inbound
Type : SIP Registration
Direction : Inbound Only
Display Name : IPComms Inbound
Account : {Username value / e.g., 8035551212}
Domain : {Host value / e.g., sipconnect.ipcomms.net}
UserName : {Username value / e.g., 8035551212}
Password/Repeat : {Secret value / e.g., 1234567890}
Outbound Proxy : {Host value / e.g., sipconnect.ipcomms.net}
Override Codec Preference : {Allow value / e.g., ulaw – verify that G.711U is at top of list}
Lock Codec during Conversation : Yes
Proposed Duration : 360
Accept Redirect : Yes
Interpret SIP URI always as phone number : Yes
Is Secure : No
Send to Extension : 99999

trunksettings

8. Verify that the new SIP Trunk registers successfully with the IPComms.Net provider.

 

Add New Forwarding Extension in pbxnsip

1. Again under the Domain Administration menu, click on the Accounts tab.
2. Click Create to create a new account using the following settings:

Number : 99999 
First Name : UM Auto 
Last Name : Attendant 
SIP Pass. : 99999 
Web Pass. : 99999 
PIN : 99999

CreateExtension

3. Configure forwarding for the new account by clicking the Edit option beside it in the list of extensions.
4. In the properties of Extension 99999, click on the Redirection tab and configure forwarding as follows:

Do Not Disturb : Off 
Login : Off 
Call Forward All Calls to : {Pilot Number of UM Auto Attendant / e.g., 59999}

Ext99999 

After successfully configuring the new SIP trunk in pbxnsip, calls placed to your free DID number should route successfully to your Exchange Unified Messaging Auto Attendant.

As always, I hope this helps!

    Hi Dave,

    Thanks for the great write up. I am building a lab for UC and I am new to the world of UC, so please pardon the noob question. Why would you require pbxnsip as a IP PBX when you could connect Lync directly to the SIP trunk from ipcomms?

    Thanks

    Ahh....I think I got it, its because you were using OCS 2007 R2 and not Lync 2010 or 2013.
    So direct SIP trunking was not supported. Right?

    Do you really think Lync is a full featured SIP PBX? If your running Lync as a PBX how do you call microsoft support when your server crashes?

    The same way you call Cisco when your IP PBX crashes.

    Another provider for free 30 days accounts is http://www.ixica.com/sip-trunks-free-demo/

    They are a Canadian provider but can give you full US numbers and calling as well.

    IPCOMMS Free DID works great so far for testing. I was able to make both inbound and outbound calls.
