2.2 Configuring Accounts
SIP Accounts
Each user will need at least one SIP account, in order to make phone calls. The SIP account may also be used
for presence (online status sharing) and instant messaging.
Each user requires the following information in order to register with the SIP registrar:
• User name
• Password
• Authorization Name (if applicable; see page 22 for information)
• Domain
XMPP Accounts
Setup of an XMPP account is optional; if it is set up, it will automatically be used for presence subscriptions and
instant messaging.
Several XMPP accounts can be created and enabled concurrently. For example, you could set up the corporate
XMPP account for your users, and then an individual user could optionally add their own Gmail account, in
order to monitor this account through Bria.
Each user requires the following information:
• User ID
• Domain
• Password.
Outlook Account
Bria is automatically set up with an Outlook or Mac Address Book account but the account is disabled by
default. Enabling of the account is optional. If the account becomes enabled, the contacts from that address
book will be pulled into Bria. Enabling this account is therefore a mechanism for populating the contact list. See
page 14.
