iPECS Cloud – Yealink SIP T54W Setup 

 

 

To register the Yealink SIP-T54W on Cloud, you will need a Yealink SIP-T54W licence. 

 

The first thing you will need before configuring the device is an authentication ID and password. If you need assistance on setting up a 3rd party SIP phone authentication ID and password please look at knowledge base article.

 

Now that the user is created, you will need to make sure that you have the User ID, Authentication ID and Password. This can be found against the user within User Setup and then in the device tab from within the cloud portal. The KB can be found here.

 

To find the IP address of the Yealink SIP-T54W press the OK button on the navigation key.

Make sure that your computer is connected to the same network and then enter that IP address in your computer’s web browser address bar.

You should then see the Yealink login page, the default username is admin and default password is admin.

 

Goto Account /Register

 

You will also need to know the 3rd party SIP SBC address which is 185.110.180.13 (this will be different if you are a VSP reseller) – make sure this is set as the Outbound Proxy Server, Enable Outbound Proxy Server: ON   and Server Host in the device with 5060 as the preferred port.

 

Then make sure the Line Active status is set to ON.

Now enter your authentication ID from the cloud portal into the Register Name and User Name field and the Password.

 

Press Confirm

 

If all these details are correct your device will now register and say Registered in Register status, see below example

 

 

 

Disable G722 Codec and make PCMA first choice as shown below 

 

 

 

Set the DTMF Type to SIP INFO

 

 

If you experience any problems with DTMF digit selections using Auto Attendants, you can select the DTMF Info Type as DTMF

 

 

 

Note when using Auto Attendants and you select an option by pressing a digit, you will not hear the tone in the handset, however the Auto Attendant will route the call correctly.  You should not set DTMF Type to Inband for security reasons.

 

 

 

Best practice to secure your SIP DECT unit:

  • Please take note that these settings are best practice and are not guaranteed to prevent the unit from unsolicited access.
  • Features tab under general information change, Accept SIP Trust Server Only to ON.
  • Features tab under general information change, Allow IP Call to OFF

 

 

 

 

 

In Features/Remote Control, the Action URI Allow IP List is for the Remote-Control feature.  This should be left blank (default) so that no remote IP Address can control the phone.

 

 

 

 

  • Account tab left side Register and change Password, this password must be as secure as possible so please use uppercase & lowercase letters characters and numbers as a combination.
  • Account tab left side Register and change Server Expires, change to 90 seconds.
  • Account tab left side Register and change Proxy Fall-back Interval to 90 seconds.

 

 

 

  • In Network/Advanced,/Web Server, set HTTP Disabled, check  HTTPS Enabled, HTTPS Port, change port to a non-well known one for example 46033.

 

 

 

 

  • Lastly secure the login details as the admin login, create the password as secure as possible as per the below screen shot. Do not use the same password on multiple devices as it compromises your password. At the time of testing the maximum length password was 28 characters. If you use mot than 28 characters, then it will be accepted but you would not be able to login to the device and will have to default it.
