What Narayana SIP is
Narayana SIP is the account layer that lets a compatible softphone, IP phone or PBX register and place calls using standard SIP signaling. It separates the account from a single device, so users can choose the client that fits their workflow. See also the glossary and FAQ.
What Narayana VoIP is
VoIP is the broader method of carrying voice over IP networks. In Narayana CYou, SIP provides the setup language while VoIP describes the actual internet-based calling experience.
SIP account basics
A SIP account normally includes a username, password, server address and transport settings. Users should store credentials safely and only enter them into trusted calling software. See also the glossary and FAQ.
Softphone usage
A softphone is often the quickest way to start. Install a SIP-capable app, add the account credentials, check microphone permissions, then place a short test call before relying on it for longer conversations.
IP phone usage
IP phones can be useful for desks, support rooms and repeat calling. They usually expose fields for SIP server, proxy, username, password, codecs and NAT behavior. See also the glossary and FAQ.
SIP routing
Routing determines how a dialed number reaches the next network. Correct number format, balance, destination availability and caller ID policy all influence the result.
Codecs
Codecs such as G.711, G.729 and Opus convert voice into packets. Wideband quality, bandwidth use and compatibility should be balanced according to the network. See also the glossary and FAQ.
Latency, jitter and packet loss
Real-time calling is sensitive to delay, unstable packet timing and missing packets. Wired internet, stable Wi-Fi, QoS and a nearby network path can improve quality.
Prepaid usage
A prepaid balance helps keep calling controlled. Registration is free, and the account can be topped up from 1 EUR before using paid telecom services. See also the glossary and FAQ.
Setup flow
Register, log in, check balance, choose a SIP client, add credentials, select codecs, make a test call and contact support if registration or audio fails.
