Setting up Linphone as a SIP "endpoint"

Intro

To be able to test out OVI functionality during development, a SIP capable endpoint device is required - like a conference system (HP/Poly, Cisco, LifeSize, Yealink, etc.) or you can use your PC with a SIP application like Linphone

This guide will help you setup Linphone, towards Synegy SKY Registrar.

Setting up

Download and install linphone, we would recommend the Version 5.x version as we have seen issues with the 6.x branch.
