When you setup sipx, the most reliable way to configure it is:
sipdomain.tld
and hostname.sipdomain.tld as two different values.
when a phone registers it should register to
"[email protected]" <mailto:[email protected]>
Ultimately it DOES NOT MATTER where DHCP and DNS come from, so
long as it is accurate and works without delays. For best
performance on a single system and if there are no network
reasons "not to", you are best off to let sipx handle both
services or contains sipx services on its own vlan so it doesn't
interfere. I normally use a subdomain for sipx services, but not
always, and that's "my" way of doing it.
If the phone is registering to the hostname, the phone MWI is to
the domain name and its not answering the challenge for MWI
subscription BECAUSE the subscriber IS [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]>, NOT [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]>.
The reality is all of this is a big exhale... it's all in the
wiki. While there are numerous threads, they all point back to
the same issue. DNS.
This is how I would do i if I were you, but I am not you (since
people tire of my "if it were me...").
I do this the same each and every time. I never have registration
issues. I never have MWI issues and I never have issues calling
inside to other subscribers.

On the install of 4.4, I used the hostname and had the
installer install DHCP and DNS as well. There are no other
DNS servers on the network. This is why I do not understand
why I have to 'fix' my DNS. Isn't sipX supposed to config
everything correctly on install (assuming I entered the right
values during setup)?
If using hostname is a valid setup, than why did ext to ext
calls not work without adding DNS aliases under System>Domain
(per Tod's instructions). Tony said I should not have to do
that, but instead I needed to fix my DNS, and, if I
understand his last email on this correctly, this is why the
v-mail indicator LED does not work. But, again, if the
install set up the DNS config and I made no changes then why
is DNS broken?
Right now everything works except the v-mail indicator (I've
not completed remote phone testing).
So, being willing to do whatever is needed to get sipX up and
running, I honestly do not care if I use domain or hostname
for setup. Can I easily switch from using hostname to domain
without doing a reinstall?
I'm happy to fix my DNS if someone will help me understand
why it was broken to begin with being that it is the only DNS
server on the network and it was using the default config.

either setup with a domain or you setup with a host name.
if you setup with a domain and then try to move to a host
name, that's different...

me understand first.
Are you saying that the problem results from my
extensions registering as [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]> instead of [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]>?
In a previous post I was told by someone that if I have
no intention of adding additional servers, I can use
host.domain.com <http://host.domain.com> as the sip
domain during install instead of domain.com
<http://domain.com> and this is a perfectly acceptable
solution and that this results in basically an A record
setup instead of a SRV record setup. Is this not the case?
You've mentioned a few time that I need to "Fix my DNS,"
which I'm very willing to do, but I've also been told
that the DNS should be setup correctly on install since
I'm installing DNS on the same server during the sipX
install. There are no other DNS servers on the network.
If I have to go back to [email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]> do I have to do another
reinstall or is there another way to switch over?

Its the fact you are registering to the host name

Fix your DNS.

I just noticed that since I upgraded sipX to 4.4
and my Polycom IP 335
phones to firmware 3.2.6 and BootROM 4.2.2, I no
longer get a v-mail
notification on the Phones. The message indicator
LED does not flash and
there is no indication on the display except "1 new
missed call".
I do not know enough yet to know if the issue is
with sipX/Polycom
interoperability or with firmware or with the BootROM.
Any clues?
