	How do I setup my Asterisk PBX to receive incoming calls from the Gizmo5 network?

Solution This is an advanced topic. If you are new to Gizmo5 and VoIP, then you should probably just ignore this for now.

As you may be aware, one of the ways that Gizmo5 supports Asterisk, is by making it possible for your PBX, to receive calls from the Gizmo5 network.

There are many ways to do this. In fact, it is probably already possible to place a call from Gizmo5 to your Asterisk PBX, by using the Gizmo5 softphone to dial the full SIP URI of a user (or extension) on your Asterisk Server.

However, in this example, we will assume that you want to be able to have your Asterisk PBX receive all of the calls that are currently going to your Gizmo5 account (including any calls made to your Call In number). To do this, you will need:

An installed, and running Asterisk server. (Basic installation of Asterisk is beyond the scope of this article)
A Gizmo Project account with a Call In number

New sip.conf settings:

[general]
register => YourSip:YourPass@proxy01.sipphone.com

[Calls-From-Gizmo-Network]
type=user
context=YourIncomingCallContext
disallow=all
allow=ulaw
allow=ilbc
allow=gsm
dtmfmode=rfc2833
host=proxy01.sipphone.com
insecure=very
username=YourSip
secret=YourPass
canreinvite=no

In these settings, you will need to substitute the following values:

YourName - Put your name. Example: "John Doe"
YourSip - Put the SIP Number associtated with your Gizmo Project account
YourPass - Put the password associated with your Gizmo5 account. NOTE - this IS case-sensitive. When you log into the Gizmo Project softphone or webpage, it is NOT case sensitive. Please take the time to actually recover your password (so you can see exactly how it is stored in our system).
YourIncomingCallContext - This needs to be whatever context you have setup in your extensions.conf file, to handle and direct incoming calls
