You are misunderstanding a bit; Asterisk can use an XMPP server and
PubSub to *distribute* presence information among a cluster of Asterisk
servers. This information is not intended to be directly sent to XMPP
clients.
What i assume (please correct me if i am wrong) is that when a client
registers/deregisters, asterisk will update the presence info towards
the XMPP-server. Correct?
Yes, in order to let other Asterisk servers in the cluster know about it.
But otoh, what people would like to see is who is "on line".
And not only on the asterisk-server that they are connected to, but also
from other possible asterisk servers.
And furthermore, each registered user might want to set their
presencse-status to either free/busy/away/what-ever.
Asterisk does not support 'user' presence; it supports device and
extension presence. In some applications these can be used
interchangeably, but in others they don't match up very well.
Ok, so that should mean that the "presence-status" is controlled by the
fect wether a sip-user is registered or not?
If so, i'm still making a mistake somewhere:
No, Asterisk sends "extension state" information, not "presence". The
informations sent to the SIP endpoints is based on whether the monitored
endpoint is considered 'busy' or not. It may also be based on whether it
is registered or not, but I don't remember for sure.
I tried to simplify my configuration: Just one asterisk machine,
And two users (my and myself) with two linphones, one from a XP-machine
and the other from a SuSE-machine.
They can both register and call each other, and in linphone presence is
enabled.
However if i manually add on each side the corresponding info (name +
sip-address) in the linphone app, they always remain grey / "away" Even
while in the middle of an connection to each other.
Have you created hints in the dialplan to tell Asterisk what device(s)
it should monitor in order to provide the extension state for the URIs
you are asking the phones to subscribe to?
