Summary

Here's a neutral and interesting summary of the text: Twilio allows developers to connect SIP-enabled devices or soft phones directly to its Voice API, enabling them to use the Voice API to handle calls. To register Twilio SIP endpoints, users need to create a credential list with their Twilio account credentials, then create a new domain in Twilio and add the credential list. Users can then register multiple extensions with Twilio using Zoiper soft phones or other VOIP devices. The registered extensions can make inbound and outbound calls within and outside of the network. To make an inbound call, users need to configure the voice URL of their Twilio number to forward calls to a specific SIP endpoint, while for outbound calling, users need to create a script that extracts the destination SIP endpoint from the incoming request and forwards the call to it.
