The Thinsy Virtual Conference Server includes functionality to connect to a SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) compatible VoIP telephony server, and receive calls into the conference directly from the VoIP Server.

The advantages of this functionality are:

Conference participants can call into the conference using a mobile phone or land line
Telephone handsets normally provide much better audio quality and echo cancellation than computer microphones and speakers
By connecting to an existing telephony infrastructure, you can piggyback the Thinsy Virtual Conference’s telephony requirements on your existing telephony infrastructure. There is no need to purchase additional VoIP service

Configuration of the Thinsy Virtual Conference server to talk to a SIP compatible VoIP telephony server is accomplished by clicking on the SIP tab in the Thinsy Virtual Conference Administration webpage. Here are some example configurations.

iptel SIP service
<include>
<gateway name=”iptel”>
<param name=”username” value=”thinsyvc”/>
<param name=”realm” value=”iptel.org”/>
<param name=”extension” value=”thinsyvc”/>
<param name=”password” value=”YOUR_PASSWORD”/>
<param name=”proxy” value=”sip.iptel.org”/>
<param name=”register” value=”true”/>
</gateway>
</include>

In the above example thinsyvc is you iptel username. Replace YOUR_PASSWORD with your iptel password.

Flowroute SIP service
<include>
<gateway name=”flowroute”>
<param name=”username” value=”66666666″/>
<param name=”from-domain” value=”sip.flowroute.com”/>
<param name=”password” value=”YOUR_PASSWORD”/>
<param name=”extension” value=”14085551212″/>
<param name=”realm” value=”sip.flowroute.com”/>
<param name=”proxy” value=”sip.flowroute.com”/>
<param name=”expire-seconds” value=”3600″/>
<param name=”register” value=”true”/>
<param name=”retry-seconds” value=”3600″/>
<param name=”caller-id-in-from” value=”true”/>
</gateway>
</include>

In the above example configuration, replace 666666 with your Flowroute account number, YOUR_PASSWORD with your Flowroute password, and 14085551212 with the DID (telephone number) that you purchased from Flowroute.
