10. Internal number dialing

Scroll to top


In Microsoft teams the user has one phone number and that is the external number. For internal calls, the full external phone number must be dialed.

Using the Area code feature in our DECT solution, internal numbers can be dialed where the system will automatically convert this to the full external number.

Example:

Phone number = 0049 2871 1234500 - 0049 2871 1234599

  • In the web-interface go to: SETTINGS - Telephony - Call settings

    Enter the Area Codes, conform the company number.

  • Instead of dialing the full number example: 0049 2871 1234500
    The user can dial 1234500

  • If needed, the local Area code can be increased to be able to dial internally using even less digits.

12. FAQ

Scroll to top

Which SIP/HTTP user-agent is send?

By default the user-agent contains: FAQ - User agent

  • Device type
  • Software version
  • MAC address
  • Number of handsets

Microsoft only wants to see the:

  • Device type
  • Software version

For this solution, the correct user-agent is set via provisioning.

When I have an integrator with multiple DECT Managers, do we need to change the user-agent via auto-provisioning so that every device uses the same user-agent?

No, the user-agent is changed by auto-provisioning to send only the device type and software version and is also valid for an integrator solution.

What is an Microsoft onboarding SIP account?

Each device that is not logged in Teams, get's an Microsoft Onboarding SIP account. This account offers an active SIP registration to the Microsoft platform. It is not possible to make or receive calls using this account, it is needed to start the Teams login.

How long is an onboarding SIP account valid?

If your device is registered with the onboarding account and:

  • SIP refresh registration is continuous then the account stays active for always
  • There is no SIP refresh registration (device switched off) then account is deleted by Microsoft after 14 days

How long is an Sign-in SIP accounts valid?

If your device is Signed-in:

  • SIP refresh registration is continuous then the account stays active for always
  • There is no SIP refresh registration (device switched off) then account is deleted by Microsoft after 30 days

How is provisioning started?

Provisioning is started by the Microsoft platform using the Onboarding / Sign-in SIP account. Via an SIP Notify send by the Microsoft platform using the active SIP account, provisioning is started.

If the SIP account is not registered then provisioning can not be started.

The SIP Notify is send by the SIP platform where the handset is registered against. (The active SIP registration normally keeps the firewall open.)

Who generates the text on the display during sign-in/out?

The text "Signed Out Successfully" or the URL to Microsoft with code is generated by the Microsoft platform using the xHTML/RAP protocol.

The URL for login is different then described on this wiki.

Always use the URL that is displayed on the DECT handset as Microsoft sometimes makes changes that could results to use another URL. The URL on the handset is coming from Microsoft and is the only valid URL.

Sign-in is not working

There could be multiple reasons

  1. There is an missing Teams license
  2.  SIP notify is not received

Try the Sign-in using an Microsoft account where you know it is working.

After Sign-in, you see the following message on the display:

This is generated by Microsoft when you start a sign-in and the Onboarding SIP account is not registered. 

This can happen that you pre-configure the system and handsets, but installation is for example weeks later, then the Onboarding accounts are deleted by Microsoft.

Try to:

  1. Start provisioning via the web-interface
  2. Re-register the DECT handset

How to trace Teams login using syslog

If I register a new DECT handset, I can see the VoIP provider "Microsoft Teams onboarding" multiple times, which one should I use.

It does not matter which of these providers you select, both can be used.
