[asterisk-users] Why all the 401 Unauthorized

2012-10-23 Thread Jerry Geis

I have a connection between two asterisk boxes, both running 1.4.43

The connection is alive and good and working. however, I see a bunch of
401 Unauthorized messages using wireshark - then it eventually registers 
again

just fine.

Why would it not successfully register the first time - every time?

Jerry

Hi,

SIP registrations typically try to register, are them prompted for a password 
(via a 401 message) it then sends a new request with authentication . This is 
normal.

Yes it is.

To be more exact and clarify: We never prompt for a password or ask anyone to 
send a password in clear text. SIP authentication
is based on HTTP MD5 digest authentication, where we have to send an 
authentication challenge to get an authentication response.
The challenge is sent in the first 401 and the response in the next SIP request 
- REGISTER, INVITE or something else - from
the client. The information sent over the net is just a digest of a set of 
information, where the shared secret is one piece.

Cheers,
/O
