| Then when asked for SIP domain, do I have to enter mycompany.com OR is entering sipx.mycompany.com expectable?
If you want A-Record resolution and you will never add another server, you can use sipx.mycompany.com. If you want to add another server at a later time or use XMPP to mycompany.com in the future, I would use mycompany.com(which should be the default response).
