We have been exploring the third party SIP endpoint registration in CUCM, so far we have seen 3CX and X Lite SIP Phone registration in
CUCM. There is one more popular SIP Soft phone known as Ekiga.

Ekiga (earlier identified as GnomeMeeting) is one of the best open source VoIP SoftPhone, Video Conferencing and Instant Messaging
software over the Internet. It is compatible with almost SIP phone service providers in the market.

It holds HD sound excellence and video up to DVD size and superiority. It is interoperable with many VoIP software open source since it
uses both the telephony standards SIP and H.323. It also offers Linux softphone client.

Features of Ekiga as per the developers,

In this article, I’m gonna go and add Ekiga Softphone in CUCM.

Tools Required

1. Ekiga Softphone: I have user Ekiga Softphone 4.0.2 version for this article which available to download form the following link.

Ekiga Softphone 4.0.2


Ekiga Softphone home page, Wiki Articles

2. Cisco Unified Communications Manager: I have tried and registered Ekiga Softphone successfully in all 7+ version of Call Manager. The
installation and basic configuration of Cisco Call manager will be covered soon.

Well, let’s get started with registration of Ekiga in Cisco Unified Communications Manager.

Step 1: Prepare End User for Ekiga Softphone


Just like 3CX and X Lite SIP phone, Ekiga Softphone also requires End user’s digest authentication to register with Call Manager.

Go to User Management >> End User and set up the user for Softphone (you can use LDAP user or local user). In this example I have used
‘Earline.Hanson’ local user for the registration.

Step 2: Ekiga Softphone Registration in CUCM

Go to Device >> Add New >>


Phone Type: Third-party SIP Device (Basic)
>> Next
In the phone configuration page enter any dummy MAC address. Provide other necessary information as shown in the figure below.

[Note: Owner and Owner User ID is not necessary to get register, but it is recommended to select the specific user for the phone]

Now head over to Protocol Specific Information,

Device Security Pro䕃�le: Third-part SIP Device Basic – Standard SIP Non-Secure Pro䐹�le
SIP Pro䕃�le: Standard SIP Pro䐹�le
Digest User: Earline.Hanson (End user created at Step 1)

Click Line [1] – Add a new DN

Enter the line specific information as shown,


Step 3: Login to Ekiga Softphone

Open Ekiga application and navigate to Edit >> Preferences

Un check Enable network detection

[Note: Auto network detection might cause loops issue where Call Manager refuses the REGISTER message. Ekiga detects 2 NICs, and
sources REGISTER messages with each IP configured. CM detects them duplicate and rejects registration]

Now let’s go ahead and add SIP account in Ekiga Softphone. Move over to Edit >> Accounts
Accounts >> Add a SIP Account

Configure the fields as give below,

Name : CUCM PUB IP Address


Registrar : CUCM PUB IP Address (you can use SUB IP as well)
User : 1015 (DN con䐹�gured for Ekiga Softphone in CUCM)
Authentication User : Earline.Hanson (End user speci䐹�ed in Step 1)
Password : End user password in CUCM
Timeout : 3600 (Keep default)
[ ] Enable account

>> Click OK

If everything is good, you can see Registered Status in the status bar of the Ekiga phone.

How to Make an Outbound Call from Ekiga Softphone?

It looks little odd while you make an outbound call, Ekiga supports only SIP URI dialing. That means if you want to call an extension 1001,
you may have to dial 1001@<IP/HOSTNAME_OF_SIP_REGISTRAR_SERVER>.

In our case, 1001@142.100.64.11
