Voice over IP (VoIP)
Voice over IP (VoIP)
Voice over IP (VoIP) is a group of technologies that enables voice communication and multimedia sessions over IP networks. In the
Axis product, VoIP is enabled through the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and Dual-Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) signaling.
To open the product’s VoIP pages, go to Setup > VoIP.
The VoIP settings include the following pages:
•
•
•
The VoIP settings can be configured by users with administrator rights.
The VoIP Overview Page
The VoIP Overview page shows basic information about the SIP, VoIP action rule, and account settings.
•
SIP Settings – Shows the basic Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) settings, such as whether SIP is enabled and allows
incoming calls or not.
To change the settings, click Configure or go to VoIP > SIP Settings. For more information, see Configure the SIP Settings
on page 12.
•
Account Settings – Shows an overview of the SIP account settings. See also The Account Settings Page on page 14.
To create a new account, test an account, or change the account settings, click Configure or go to VoIP > Account
Configure the SIP Settings
Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is a text-based protocol, similar to HTTP and SMTP, for interactive communication sessions between
users. The sessions can include voice, video, and chat elements. For information, see About SIP Addresses on page 16.
Before the Axis product can be used to make and receive calls, you need to configure the SIP settings. This includes enabling SIP,
configuring the ports, and setting the rules for Network Address Translation (NAT) traversal.
To configure the SIP settings:
1. Go to Setup > VoIP > SIP Settings.
2. Select Enable SIP.
3. To make a test call to an account on another device, enter a valid SIP address for the other device and click Test call.
4. To allow the Axis product to receive calls, select Allow incoming calls.
5. Enter the SIP port number and the SIP TLS port number. For more information, see Port Settings on page 13.
6. Select the protocols you want to enable for NAT traversal. See Network Address Translation (NAT) Traversal (port
7. Click Save.
Note
Even if you choose to not enable SIP, you can configure the SIP settings. But remember that when SIP is disabled, you
cannot make or receive calls.

Voice over IP (VoIP)
Port Settings
•
SIP port – Enter the port used for SIP sessions. The signalling traffic through this port will be non-encrypted. The default
port number is 5060.
•
SIP TLS port – Enter the port used for SIPS sessions and TLS-secured SIP sessions. The signalling traffic through this port
will be encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS). The default port number is 5061.
Network Address Translation (NAT) Traversal (port forwarding)
Use NAT traversal when the Axis product is connected to the network behind a NAT router or firewall device.
VoIP services require clients to be servers as well, and many VoIP services carry IP address and port information in the application
data. Therefore, Axis products behind Network Address Translation (NAT) devices such as network routers need to use special
protocols for NAT traversal (port forwarding) so that incoming calls can be linked to the correct host.
Without SIP-specific port forwarding, users of clients within the same private network would be able to talk to each other
(peer-to-peer communication) but users of clients in different networks would not.
The following NAT traversal settings are available:
•
•
•
ICE – Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE). See page 13.
STUN – Session Traversal Utilities for NAT (STUN). See page 13.
TURN – Traversal Using Relays around NAT (TURN). See page 13.
Each NAT traversal protocol has its benefits and flaws. The flaws can be reduced by making sure that the network and its connected
devices support all these protocols.
For more information about the product’s general NAT traversal settings, see NAT traversal (port mapping) for IPv4 on page 27.
Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE)
Interactive Connectivity Establishment (ICE) enables the product to send a request that includes multiple addresses to the receiving
device. In its response, the receiving device also includes multiple addresses. Through a process of connectivity checks, also called
handshakes, the channel for communication is established.
ICE increases the chances of finding the most efficient path to successful communication between peer devices. If you also enable
STUN and TURN, you improve the ICE protocol’s chances of finding the most efficient path to successful communication, not just
between peers but between all devices on either side of the NAT device.
To use the ICE protocol for NAT traversal, select Enable ICE.
Session Traversal Utilities for NAT (STUN)
Session Traversal Utilities for NAT (STUN) is a client-server network protocol that enables the product to ask a STUN server on the
Internet for a mapped public IP address. The STUN server response includes this IP address and port so that the client can use them
in its SIP messages to other hosts and clients.
Like TURN, STUN can be used in full-cone, address-restricted cone, and port-restricted cone NAT setups. STUN is fast because it
is lightweight. However, STUN does not allow incoming messages from symmetric NATs, and it cannot communicate with a peer
behind the same NAT device.
To use the STUN protocol for NAT traversal, select Enable STUN. Then enter the address of the STUN server.
Traversal Using Relays around NAT (TURN)
Traversal Using Relays around NAT (TURN) is a client-server network protocol that enables the product to ask a TURN server for a
mapped IP address. The TURN server responds with its IP address and port so that the client can use them in its SIP messages.
13
AXIS C3003-E Network Speaker
Voice over IP (VoIP)
TURN is primarily used in symmetric NAT setups. Like STUN, TURN can also be used in full-cone, address-restricted cone, and
port-restricted cone NAT setups. But because the IP address and port provided by the TURN server are those of the TURN server
itself, it works like a carrier that forwards information to and from the client. This means that while TURN servers are reliable,
they sometimes cause a bit of latency.
To use the TURN protocol for NAT traversal, select Enable TURN. Then the address of the TURN server, the username and password.
The Account Settings Page
The Account Settings page allows you to set up and manage SIP accounts. See Create or Edit Accounts on page 14.

an alias and is especially useful when several accounts have the same user ID.
•
Default account – Select to make this the default account. Only one account can be the default account.
At startup, the first time the product is accessed or after a reset, a peer account is created automatically and set to be the
default account. This peer account can only be removed if at least one more account has been added to the list.
The default account will be used to make triggered calls and to make test calls on the SIP Settings page. For more
Account Credentials
•
User ID (required) – Enter the name or PBX extension that shall be shown when calling other accounts. A private branch
exchange (PBX) is a telephone switching system that connects telephone extensions to each other and to other telephone
networks. Each PBX-connected device has its own extension number.
•
Authentication ID – Some PBXs require that the account verifies itself with the SIP registrar to allow access to the PBX. For
more information, see the PBX’s and service provider’s instructions. By default the Authentication ID is identical to the User
ID. To enable an Authentication ID that is different from the User ID, clear the Use User ID as Authentication ID check box.
•
•
•
Password – Enter the password for the account. A password is not required for peer-to-peer accounts.
Confirm password – Repeat the password. A password is not required for peer-to-peer accounts.
Caller ID – Enter the name or phone number that you want the recipient to see when you make the call.
If you only enter a user ID, the account will be used as a peer-to-peer account. This means that unless the devices are connected
to NATs with SIP-specific port forwarding such as STUN or TURN, the account will only be able to communicate with devices
that are connected to the same private network. For more information, see Network Address Translation (NAT) Traversal (port
To create an account that is registered with a PBX or a service provider, enter the user ID, password, and the registrar address
SIP Server Settings
•
Domain name – If available, enter the public domain name. The domain name will be shown as part of the SIP address
•
Registrar address – Enter the SIP server’s registrar address. This is to point out the SIP registrar with which the account
should register itself. The SIP registrar is the part of the PBX that keeps track of all the extensions.
Important
The registrar address should be an IPv4 address. The product’s VoIP capabilities currently do not include support for IPv6.
Transport Settings
•
Enable SIPS – Select to use Secure Session Initiation Protocol (SIPS). SIPS uses the TLS transport mode to encrypt the
traffic. If you enable SIPS, you cannot select any other transport mode than TLS.
•
•
Transport mode – Select the SIP transport mode for the account: UDP, TCP, or TLS.
Allow port update messages through MWI – Message waiting indicator (MWI) notifies the user of changes in the
port settings.
The difference between SIPS (Enable SIPS) and SIP over TLS (Transport mode – TLS) is that SIPS ensures that each message transfer
is encrypted, while SIP over TLS only has to make a best effort.
15
AXIS C3003-E Network Speaker
Voice over IP (VoIP)
SIP over UDP Transport mode – UDP means that the message will be sent without delay but also without the handshakes that SIPS,
SIP over TLS, and SIP over TCP Transport mode – TCP offer.

4. To end the call, click End call.
About SIP Addresses
SIP addresses are used to identify users within a network just like you would use a phone number or an email address to contact a
friend or colleague. One of the major differences between phone calls, emails, and SIP calls is that they use different protocols to
start and end conversations.
Like email addresses, SIP addresses are a type of uniform resource identifier (URI) that includes two user-specific parts, a user ID or
extension and a domain or IP address. Together with a prefix and the @ symbol, they make up a unique address. For example, if
Caesar of ancient Rome had both an email address and a SIP address, they would be mailto:[email protected] and
sip:[email protected] respectively. For more examples and descriptions, see below.
SIP addresses are also known as SIP URIs or, in some cases, SIP numbers. For more information, see the PBX’s and service provider’s
instructions.
Example
Description
sip:
Prefix that tells the system that a SIP session is being started.

NAT traversal (port mapping) for IPv4
A network router allows devices on a private network (LAN) to share a single connection to the Internet. This is done by forwarding
network traffic from the private network to the “outside”, that is, the Internet. Security on the private network (LAN) is increased
since most routers are pre-configured to stop attempts to access the private network (LAN) from the public network (Internet).
Use NAT traversal when the Axis product is located on an intranet (LAN) and you wish to make it available from the other (WAN) side
of a NAT router. With NAT traversal properly configured, all HTTP traffic to an external HTTP port in the NAT router is forwarded to
the product.
NAT traversal is configured under System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Advanced.
Note
• For NAT traversal to work, this must be supported by the router. The router must also support UPnPTM
.
• In this context, router refers to any network routing device such as a NAT router, Network router, Internet Gateway,
Broadband router, Broadband sharing device, or a software such as a firewall.
Enable/Disable - When enabled, the Axis product attempts to configure port mapping in a NAT router on your network, using
UPnPTM. Note that UPnPTM must be enabled in the product (see ).
Use manually selected NAT router - Select this option to manually select a NAT router and enter the IP address for the router in
the field. If no router is specified, the product automatically searches for NAT routers on your network. If more than one router is
found, the default router is selected.
Alternative HTTP port - Select this option to manually define an external HTTP port. Enter a port in the range 1024–65535. If the
port field is empty or contains the default setting, which is 0, a port number is automatically selected when enabling NAT traversal.
Note
• An alternative HTTP port can be used or be active even if NAT traversal is disabled. This is useful if your NAT router does not
support UPnP and you need to manually configure port forwarding in the NAT router.
• If you attempt to manually enter a port that is already in use, another available port is automatically selected.
• When the port is selected automatically it is displayed in this field. To change this, enter a new port number and click Save.
FTP
The FTP server running in the Axis product enables upload of new firmware, user applications, etc. The FTP server can be disabled
under System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Advanced.
RTSP
The RTSP server running in the Axis product allows a connecting client to start an audio stream from the Axis product. The RTSP port
number can be changed under System Options > Network > TCP/IP > Advanced. The default port is 554.
Note
Audio streams will not be available if the RTSP server is disabled.
SOCKS
SOCKS is a networking proxy protocol. The Axis product can be configured to use a SOCKS server to reach networks on the other
side of a firewall or proxy server. This functionality is useful if the Axis product is located on a local network behind a firewall, and
notifications, uploads, alarms, etc need to be sent to a destination outside the local network (for example the Internet).
SOCKS is configured under System Options > Network > SOCKS. For more information, see the online help

To enable and configure SNMP in the Axis product, go to the System Options > Network > SNMP page.
Depending on the level of security required, select the version on SNMP to use.
Traps are used by the Axis product to send messages to a management system on important events and status changes. Check Enable
traps and enter the IP address where the trap message should be sent and the Trap community that should receive the message.
Note
If HTTPS is enabled, SNMP v1 and SNMP v2c should be disabled.
Traps for SNMP v1/v2 are used by the Axis product to send messages to a management system on important events and status
changes. Check Enable traps and enter the IP address where the trap message should be sent and the Trap community that
should receive the message.
The following traps are available:
•
•
•
•
Cold start
Warm start
Link up
Authentication failed
SNMP v3 provides encryption and secure passwords. To use traps with SNMP v3, an SNMP v3 management application is required.
To use SNMP v3, HTTPS must be enabled, see HTTPS on page 22. To enable SNMP v3, check the box and provide the initial user
password.
Note
The initial password can only be set once. If the password is lost, the Axis product must be reset to factory default, see

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
Check the Firmware
Firmware is software that determines the functionality of network devices. One of your first actions when troubleshooting a problem
should be to check the current firmware version. The latest version may contain a correction that fixes your particular problem. The
current firmware version in the Axis product is displayed in the page Setup > Basic Setup and in Setup > About.
Upgrade the Firmware
Important
• Your dealer reserves the right to charge for any repair attributable to faulty upgrade by the user.
• Preconfigured and customized settings are saved when the firmware is upgraded (providing the features are available in the
new firmware) although this is not guaranteed by Axis Communications AB.
Note
• When you upgrade the Axis product with the latest firmware from Axis website, the product receives the latest functionality
available. Always read the upgrade instructions and release notes available with each new release before upgrading
the firmware.
Symptoms, Possible Causes and Remedial Actions
Problems setting the IP address
When using ARP/Ping
The product is located on a
different subnet
If the IP address intended for the product and the IP address of the computer used to access the
product are located on different subnets, you will not be able to set the IP address. Contact your
network administrator to obtain an IP address.
The IP address is being used
by another device
Disconnect the Axis product from the network. Run the Ping command (in a Command/DOS
window, type ping and the IP address of the product):
• If you receive: Reply from <IP address>: bytes=32; time=10...
this means that the IP address may already be in use by another device on the network.
Obtain a new IP address from the network administrator and reinstall the product.
• If you receive: Request timed out, this means that the IP address is available
for use with the Axis product. Check all cabling and reinstall the product.
Possible IP address conflict
with another device on the
same subnet.
The static IP address in the Axis product is used before the DHCP server sets a dynamic address.
This means that if the same default static IP address is also used by another device, there may
be problems accessing the product.
The product cannot be accessed from a browser
Cannot log in
When HTTPS is enabled, ensure that the correct protocol (HTTP or HTTPS) is used when attempting
to log in. You may need to manually type http or https in the browser’s address field.
If the password for the user root is lost, the product must be reset to the factory default settings.
The IP address has been
changed by DHCP
