Registering Zoiper to a specific zone

[Guest DanH]

Hello community, we have another TWIL installment for you here in the form of a specific softphone setup. Zoiper is a popular softphone with a large user base that many in the Kazooniverse have used with great success on the platform. Those familiar with our hosted platform also know that registering devices of all types to specific zones is a practice that can be helpful for testing or optimising different geographic factors. Here we have a brief guide on how to set your Zoiper softphone up on a specific zone as your needs dictate! 

In Zoiper, click on the 'gear' button next to the account you are using to open up the settings menu. See below:

Once in the settings menu, click on accounts and select the account you wish to modify.

Enable “use outbound proxy” and enter the zone you wish the app to register over, as seen below:

 

On zswitch, our hosted platform, these zones are:

us-east.p.zswitch.net

us-central.p.zswitch.net

us-west.p.zswitch.net

 

And voila, your Zoiper softphone will now register specifically over one of those geographic zones!
