Re: [asterisk-users] Re: Loosing IAX connection between offices

2006-12-12 Thread DM

I converted my connections from IAX to SIP and still having the same
problem.  I'm loosing connection between B and A.  There is also an Office
C.  My problems seem to be with Office B.  Now that I have switched to SIP,
I still have the same problem when the IP address changes at Office C,
Office B looses connection and can not be restablished with a SIP RELOAD.

I think the problem is DNS related, either in Asterisk or the router.
Though, this is getting above my head at this point.  Can anyone point me in
right direction?

Short story: IAX is still crap in 1.2.13 (haven't tested 1.4), it's
unreliable and perfectly good hosts will become UNREACHABLE for no
apparent reason, while SIP connections keep going through.

For trunking, avoid IAX and use SIP.

Anyone else have problems with soft buttons not being responsive at all?  2

Any reason you don't have Office B register with Office A and thereby
tell Office A what IP office B has? It would remove the need to refresh
DNS and reload IAX2 all the time. I use this method to connect my home
system (dynamic) to my work system (static) and it works well.

I assume you are referring to Method 3 listed here:

I'll have to give it a try.

I assume you are referring to the 54GL in Office B?
What about replacing the firmware with SVEASOFT or DDWRT?  Would this fix it?

[asterisk-users] Loosing IAX connection between offices

2006-11-30 Thread DM

Setup:
Office A:
router: Linksys WRT54GS running SVEASOFT Alchemy-pre7a v3.37.6.8sv
Asterisk: v.1.2.4
static IP

Office B:
router: Linksys WRT54GL running Linksys firmware v4.30.2
Asterisk: v.1.2.7.1
dynamic IP (using dyndns name)

Office A is set up with refresh dns and cron job for iax2 reload every
5 minutes.  It rarely looses connection to Office B.

Surprisingly, Office B is the one loosing connection with Office A.
I'm surprised because Office A is the one with the static IP address.
When I do a IAX2 Show Peers, the connection will show as UNKNOWN or
UNAVAILABLE.  After loosing connection, the only way I can get it to
reestablish is to reboot the * box.  IAX2 reload doesn't solve it.  I
haven't been able to establish if it loosing the connection at a
specific duration.  Though, it seems to be random.

iax.conf of Office B:
[general]
bindport = 4569
bindaddr = 0.0.0.0
disallow=all
allow=ulaw
allow=alaw
allow=gsm
mailboxdetail=yes

Hi Doug -

One thing you could try that may or may not help:  a different FTP
server.  I've been using ProFTPd (particularly because you can
configure it to use the Polycom default username and password, so you
don't have to manually type in those settings on each phone).

If that doesn't do it, go for Polycom support.  It sounds like you're
doing everything according to their book, and it isn't working.  If
so, they should be the ones to fix it.

Why do you think the problem may be with the FTP server?  I've been

[asterisk-users] Polycom IP430 won't finish boot

2006-08-20 Thread DM

Let me start by saying when I first plugged it in, I didn't have the
files set up on my ftp server yet, and the phone used it's default
settings and it completed bootup.  Now...

I started with sip v1.6.6b and bootrom 3.1.3 on the ftp server.  Phone
boots, d/l's files, reaches "Welcome" screen and stops.  After several
minutes, it will reboot on it's own.  So, I copied the v1.6.7 sip
firmware using default files (sip.cfg, phone1.cfg ) and still doing
same thing.

Log from vsftpd log:

Re: [asterisk-users] IAX trunk behing NAT with dynamic IP

2006-08-08 Thread DM

If that doesn't work, the OP can set up a cron job to do a IAX2 Reload
every 5 minutes like I did.  I have the exact same problem.

I hope the OP reports back if that works, because I would rather add
the host statement than run a cron job every 5 minutes.

- Ability for the phone to ring when the receptionist is on one call and a

 Perhaps I am missing a setting?)
