Use the Register Contact Profile window to work with profiles that specify Contact header parameters (userpart, hostpart, or both) to use as additional parameters to uniquely define a registration. This could be needed to ensure that each registration is recognized as distinct when a user residing behind a PBX sends registration requests from multiple devices (such as a phone and laptop). Register Contact profiles are assigned at the zone level. For more information on using Register Contact profiles, refer to Creating Multiple User Registrations Based on Contact Headers in REGISTER Messages.
