Overview

When logged in the VoipNow interface, click on SIP Devices under Telephony Provisioning and you'll be redirected to the SIP Devices page. 

The SIP Devices Inventory lists the following categories of provisioned SIP devices:

  • Devices owned by you or the admin.
  • Devices owned by or assigned to your Organizations.
  • Devices owned by or assigned to Users from your Organizations.

You can read more on the how to manage your devices in the Manage SIP Devices section.

Adding SIP devices 

Each setting on the Allow to provision devices option of your account combined with those set at the level of your Organizations and Users influences your provisioning capabilities. The Allow to provision devices option is available in the Roles and Phone Numbers page of your account and can only be set by the system admin. 

As a Service Provider account owner, you may add and manage SIP devices in your own context (i.e. in your SIP Devices page) and/or in the context of your Organizations and Users (i.e. in their SIP Devices page).

To add a SIP device, you must go to Telephony Provisioning → SIP Devices →  Add New Device and follow the steps described in this page.

  • You can add SIP devices in an Organization context as long as that Organization has Modify permission.
  • You can add SIP devices in a User context as long as that User has Modify permission. Otherwise, you can't.

Editing and removing SIP devices

While you're in the SIP Devices page, you can read-only and/or edit SIP devices. You cannot edit or remove devices that are read-only.


Your right to edit and remove devices depends on the provisioning permissions of your account and your child accounts (i.e. how the Allow to provision devices option is set) and on the ownership of the device.

  • you, the admin or one of your Organizations owns them.
  • they are assigned to one of your Organizations and that Organization has Modify permission.
