the Username and Password fields, see Figure 4-1. The username and password are
determined by the customer.

8. With this you have just finished creating a SIP extension that will be used by the
Grandstream GXP2160 to register with the Elastix Server. Repeat Steps 5 through 7 to
similarly create another extension (different values on Step 6) to be used by the IP (SIP)
Phone to register as well (extension 101 in this example). Once you finished you will
see something similar to Figure 4-6.

3. Configure the other IP (SIP) Phone with the correct parameters.

4. To test the Grandstream GXP2160, pick up the previously configured IP (SIP) Phone
and call the GXP2160s extension number (101 in this example). When the call is
established, speak into the phone and verify that the other IP (SIP) Phone can hear your
voice. Check this by calling from both ends.

This step completes the manual procedure.
