====== The Internet Gate as a SIP Server ======

The way the Internet Gate handles SIP traffic makes it useful for more than just a firewall that supports SIP traffic. You may for instance set up the Internet Gate to work as a small SIP server.

===== Set up a SIP Server for your Domain =====

You can set up the Internet Gate as a SIP server for your existing domain, making it part of the open SIP world. Communicate with anyone in the open SIP community for free. Use any SIP service like video, presence (client based), instant messaging, and data collaboration

  - Select [[web GUI:SIP page]] on [[web GUI:main menu]].
  - Enter your domain name in Use as SIP server for domain and mark the check box.
