In the first step of setting up a SIP trunk, you will see a dialog titled Add basic information. Here, you can enter a name for the SIP trunk and include a desired description. For this example, we will use the FQDN sbc1.anynodesbc.com. Once all necessary information is entered, click on CONTINUE to proceed.

When you reach the Review section, a Secret key will be created for the X-Google-Pbx-Trunk-Secret-Key SIP header name. This unique key is necessary for anynode's Google Voice Node and can be added through the anynode assistant in the Google Voice-specific Settings. The Secret key can be modified or added later through the SIP User Agent dialog and the Vendor-specific settings in anynode's Google Voice Node, as described in the SIP User Agent chapter.

After you've completed the configuration for the SIP trunk, click on FINISH to finalize it.
