Configure softphone with 8x8 SIP Account

First of all, click the main menu button in the top-left corner of main window.

Now click Settings in the main menu.

Choose SIP Accounts in the left window:

Click Add Account button:

Now use SIP account credentials you got from 8x8:

  • Account name — name it somehow
  • Register on startup — program does SIP registration for this account if you tick it. If no, the program will not register on a SIP server, so you might not be able to place or receive calls.
  • SIP server — SIP server hostname or IP address. Program uses 5060 port to connect a SIP server by default. You can define other port using that format: sipserver:5061.
  • Login — your login
  • Password — your password
  • Display name — the name that a callee will see
  • Authorization name — program uses Login for authorization if this field is empty
  • Domain — SIP domain
  • SIP proxy — SIP proxy

6. Click Test Connection button. You'll see the Successful registration message if Softphone.Pro can register on a SIP server.

7. Click Save button to save your SIP account settings. It's OK, well done!
