;------- Naming devices ------------------------------------------------------
;
; When naming devices, make sure you understand how Asterisk matches calls
; that come in.
; 1. Asterisk checks the SIP From: address username and matches against
; names of devices with type=user
; The name is the text between square brackets [name]
; 2. Asterisk checks the IP address (and port number) that the INVITE
; was sent from and matches against any devices with type=peer
;
; Don't mix extensions with the names of the devices. Devices need a unique
; name. The device name is *not* used as phone numbers. Phone numbers are
; anything you declare as an extension in the dialplan (extensions.conf).
;
; Note: The parameter "username" is not the username and in most cases is
; not needed at all. Check below. In later releases, it's renamed
; to "defaultuser" which is a better name, since it is used in
; combination with the "defaultip" setting.
