# ALICE Client – SIP Tab

## This article walks through the ALICE Client Configuration's SIP tab.

The SIP Settings tab is where communication information for the ALICE Client will be configured. Each ALICE Client's SIP credentials must be unique. The ALICE Client and ALICE Directory<https://online-docs.alicereceptionist.com/Content/ALICE%20Receptionist%20Client%20(ARC)/ARC%20Configuration%20Tool/SIP%20Tab.htm#> will be adversely affected if users attempt to share SIP account information.

Contact your ALICE administrator for your unique SIP credentials.

- **Auth Id** – Enter the Authorization ID this ALICE Client will use when connecting to the communications server.

### Optional Fields

- **Forward / FollowMe#** – The phone number that will be called if the ALICE Client status is set to Forward or Follow Me.
- **Proxy Server** – Specify the IP or URL address of the proxy server if your network uses a proxy server.

### Test Communications

The **Test Connection** button tests the entered SIP settings.

The message window displays the results when the **Test Connection** button is pressed. The user will be notified of the test’s success or failure below the message window.

If the test fails, the new settings won't be saved.
