RE: [Asterisk-Users] Dial via sip gateway?
That makes a lot of sense. It would appear the Mediatrix marketing target was for the 1104 (FXS) and 1204 (FXO) to be used in pairs as a toll bypass mechanism across the Internet (mostly in a standalone form without a sip proxy). That is exactly how their extensive documentation is written as well. Looking at it from that perspective, the originating end (1104 fxs) is where we'd place the 'register' function if we were designing the product, and the 1204-fxo is just considered a bunch of pstn CO lines that ordinarily would not need the register function (that it doesn't have it now). Given the software authors probably shared common libraries across the two products, it also suggests why the 1204 has the snmp mib variables for entering the username:password on a per-port basis even though they do nothing with them today. If they can get the 1204 enhanced a little more and drop the retail price by a little, looks like it would make a good 4-port pstn box that really isn't addressed very well in the market today.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Dial via sip gateway?
Mike, I'm hoping one can specify a particular mediatrix port in the Dial Sip command, but haven't found any Dial syntax that would allow passing a userid/password to the gateway. Since the 1204 provides a AuthUsrPwd on a per port basis, my guess would be that we either have to pass the Alias defined for that port or the AuthUsrPwd in the Dial command. When I attempt exten = _9NXX,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) I get an immediate 407 Proxy Authentication Required back. However, with a packet sniffer running, * isn't even sending a packet to the mediatrix. I'd have to guess and assume * is doing this because the mediatrix isn't 'registered' with *, but the mediatrix was not designed to register anyway. I'm stuck in the Dial syntax, and can't seem to find any google reference as to how to pass the needed parameters. Rich Bob, I have a question into mediatrix for this, but maybe you have figured it out. I am trying to map a SIP user to a specific PSTN line. I have my extensions.conf file as you show below, but on the 1204, it just grabs whatever line is available, whereas I want extension 101 to always be port1 on 1204, and extension 102 to be port 2 and so on. I noticed a NetToPstnSourceFilter MIB per port, and their docs hint at using this, but the example in the docs describes their FXS to FXO, so I am not sure what I would put in that MIB. CallerID info? * calling sip extension number? Have you been able to make this work?

You (or somebody else) mentioned that you can force a call to go out a particular port on the Mediatrix by using the username/password pair which corresponds to that port, and this guess is based on that assumption. (I hope it's a valid assumption!) At http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+SIP+channels, under Using a SIP channel in extensions.conf, we read that the dial string format is either SIP/exten@peer or SIP/peer/exten. peer may be a hostname of a SIP proxy server, a domain where * should look for a SRV record, or a service defined in sip.conf. So try something like this in extensions.conf: exten = 101,1,Dial(SIP/number@mediatrixport1) exten = 102,1,Dial(SIP/number@mediatrixport2) exten = 103,1,Dial(SIP/number@mediatrixport3) exten = 104,1,Dial(SIP/number@mediatrixport4) and then define those services in sip.conf: [mediatrixport1] username=username for access to port1 password= host=mediatrix IP/name [mediatrixport2] username=username for access to port2 password= host=same mediatrix IP/name and so on for ports 3 and 4. I think a setup like this will allow you to use distinct username/password pairs for connections to the same SIP proxy.

Been trying stuff similar to: exten = _6X.,1,Dial(SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/${EXTEN-1}) where 3091 is alias for the port on the Mediatrix. Sniffer indicates * did even try the IP. should you say ${EXTEN:1} rather than ${EXTEN-1} to drop that 6 off the front of the extension?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Dial via sip gateway?
Bob, I have a question into mediatrix for this, but maybe you have figured it out. I am trying to map a SIP user to a specific PSTN line. I have my extensions.conf file as you show below, but on the 1204, it just grabs whatever line is available, whereas I want extension 101 to always be port1 on 1204, and extension 102 to be port 2 and so on. I noticed a NetToPstnSourceFilter MIB per port, and their docs hint at using this, but the example in the docs describes their FXS to FXO, so I am not sure what I would put in that MIB. CallerID info? * calling sip extension number? Have you been able to make this work?
