Configuring a PJSIP Trunk in FreePBX: A Step-by-Step Guide

This article will walk you through adding a PJSIP trunk to your FreePBX system using your Crazytel SIP Trunk credentials. Please follow these steps carefully to ensure a successful setup.

 

1. Access the Trunk Configuration Page
   - Log in to your FreePBX installation.
   - Navigate to the top menu and select Connectivity > Trunks.
   - Click the Add Trunk button and choose Add SIP (chan_pjsip) Trunk from the dropdown list.
   
   
2. Enter Your SIP Trunk Credentials
   - In the Username field, enter your Crazytel SIP Trunk username.
   - In the Password field, enter your corresponding SIP Trunk password.
   
   
3. Configure Authentication and Registration Settings
   - Set Authentication to Outbound. This specifies how FreePBX will authenticate with the SIP trunk.
   - Set Registration to Send. This enables FreePBX to register with the SIP trunk.
   
   
4. Define the Trunk's Domain and Port
   - In the Domain field, enter the domain associated with your SIP trunk.
   - Set the Port to 5060, which is the standard port for SIP communications.
   
   
5. Configure Advanced Settings (Optional)
   - Under the Advanced tab, ensure that From Domain is set to the same domain entered in Step 4.
   - If required, you can also specify an Outbound Proxy in this section.

 

• Outbound Routes:
  To complete the setup, configure your Outbound Routes to utilize this newly created trunk. This will ensure that outgoing calls use the Crazytel SIP Trunk.
• Inbound Routing for Your DID:
  + If your DID is set to Device in the Crazytel portal, create an Inbound Route for the SIP endpoint username.
  + If your DID is set to Server, create an Inbound Route using the DID in E.164 format (e.g., 61712341234).

 

By following these steps, you should now have successfully added a PJSIP trunk to your FreePBX system using your Crazytel SIP Trunk credentials. If you encounter any issues, please refer to additional troubleshooting resources or contact support for assistance.
