When set to “Yes” the FXO port is activated. 

SIP Server’s IP address or Domain name provided by VoIP Service Provider. 

IP address or Domain name of Outbound Proxy, or Media Gateway, or Session Border 
Controller.  Used by HT503 for firewall or NAT penetration in different network 
environments.  If symmetric NAT is detected, STUN will not work and ONLY way to 
correct the problem is to use the outbound proxy. 

User can select UDP, TCP or TLS 

This parameter defines whether or not the HT503 NAT traversal mechanism is 
activated.  If set to “Yes” with a STUN server also specified, the HT503 will perform 
according to the STUN client specification.  Using this mode, the embedded STUN 
client will detect if and what type of firewall/NAT is being used.   

If the detected NAT is a Full Cone, Restricted Cone, or a Port-Restricted Cone, the 
HT503 will use its mapped public IP address and port in all of its SIP and SDP 
messages.  If the NAT Traversal field is set to “Yes” with no specified STUN server, the 
HT503 will periodically (every 20 seconds or so) send a blank UDP packet (with no 
payload data) to the SIP server to keep the “hole” on the NAT open. 

User account information, provided by VoIP service provider (ITSP). Usually in the form 
of digit similar to phone number or actually a phone number. 

The SIP service subscriber’s ID used for authentication. Can be identical to or different 
from SIP User ID. 

SIP service subscriber’s account password. 

SIP service subscriber’s name for Caller ID display. 

Default is No. If set to “Yes” the client will use DNS SRV to look up the server. 

If the HT503 has an assigned PSTN telephone number, this field should be set to 
“Yes”.  Otherwise, set it to “No”.   If “Yes” is set, a “user=phone” parameter will be 
attached to the “From” header in SIP request. 

Controls whether the HT503 needs to send REGISTER messages to the proxy server.  
The default setting is Yes. 

Default is No. If set to Yes, the SIP user’s registration information will be cleared on 
reboot. 

Default is No. If set to “Yes,” user can place outgoing calls even when not registered (if 
allowed by ITSP) but is unable to receive incoming calls. 

This parameter allows the user to specify the time frequency (in minutes) the HT503 
refreshes its registration with the specified registrar. The default interval is 60 minutes 
(or 1 hour). The maximum interval is 65535 minutes (about 45 days). 

Defines the local SIP port the HT503 will listen and transmit. The default value for FXS 
port is 5062. 

This parameter defines the local RTP-RTCP port pair used by the HandyTone ATA. It 
is the base RTP port for FXO channel.  

When configured, the FXO port will use this port _value for RTP and the port_value+1 
for its RTCP. 

The default value for FXO port is 5012. 

This parameter forces the random generation of both the local SIP and RTP ports when 
set to Yes.  This is usually necessary when multiple HT503 units are behind the same 
NAT. 

Default is No. If set to YES, then for Attended Transfer, the “Refer-To” header uses the 
transferred target’s contact header information. 

Default is No. If set to yes all incoming SIP messages will be strictly validated 
according to RFC rules. If message will not pass validation process, call will be 
rejected. 

T1 is an estimate of the round-trip time between the client and server transactions.  
If the network latency is high, select larger value for reliable usage.
