3CXPhone with BroadVoice

[mdeerfield]

Hi All -

Just curious if anyone has 3CXPhone working with BroadVoice as a provider? I think I'm getting hung up b/c BroadVoice requires an outbound proxy - instead of just a domain for outbound. For clarification - you can look at this article for configuring X-Lite. http://www.broadvoice.com/support_install_byod_xlite_v3.html

I can get it registered - but unable to initiate an outbound call.

Thanks;
Mike D.

Yes, I did refer to the thread you reference prior to my post. I think that the issue is BV uses a separate auth server name (sip.broadvoice.com) and outbound proxy. If you look at the setup for xlite (the link I sent) look closely at step 7. Notice that in Xlite - there's a radio button to select "send outbound via" either domain, or proxy.

regarding registration, basically, it's just a difference of terms between Xlite and 3CXPhone.
Xlite vs 3CXPhone
Display Name - Caller ID
User name - Extension
Password - Password
Authorization user name - ID
Domain - SIP domain
Proxy - My location (out of the office).

Therefore, if your provider has as proxy 10.11.122.5:5064 or register.provider.com:5064 and as domain sip.provider.com, then in the My location you specify 10.11.122.5:5064 (or register.provider.com:5064) and in domain sip.provider.com.
As a note, ability to specifiy a port in the location has been added in this version - the "old way" being to set it from Advanced Settings / PBX port.

If is still not working, I will ask you by PM for a little assistance to help me to reproduce the same issue - thanks.

Thanks - I will give it a try tonight and let you know the results.

I did get it to work - however the fields do not match up as you suggested? Could it be that you are referring to the 3CX Phone that comes bundled with the Assistant? Anyway - here's what I did:

Credentials:

Extension = my 10 digit BV number
ID: = my 10 digit BV number
Password = my BV authentication password

My location:

check - I am out of the office - extenal ip 147.135.20.221:5060 (oubound sip proxy that resolved to proxy.nyc.broadvoice.com)
SIP Domain = sip.broadvoice.com

Tunnel:
No Changes

Hi, Mike
Why needed to specify IP instead of name? :roll: With proxy.nyc.broadvoice.com:5060 didn't work? :roll:

 

[mdeerfield]

In my initial tests it did not - so I used the IP (b/c that's what the field is asking for). I tested it this morning with the proxy.nyc.broadvoice.com:5060, and it is now working, However - there is one last piece that I do not understand fully - looking at the guide again for setting up BV with XLite - noting how they have you do a ping to determine the best proxy, and then populate the field for this server in this format: proxy-nyc.broadvoice.com , apparently to utilize DNS srv records. http://www.broadvoice.com/support_install_byod_xlite_v3.html - again please see step 7. Using the hyphen in the domain name does not work.

Hi, Mike
I've tried to ping from command prompt the proxy-nyc.broadvoice.com server and I've got "Ping request could not find host proxy-nyc.broadvoice.com", so perhaps is a misspelling in their screenshots, or meantime they changed name to proxy.nyc.broadvoice.com.

I can confirm that the outbound proxy is proxy.nyc.broadvoice.com, not proxy-nyc.broadvoice.com
