Re: [asterisk-users] skip authentication for REGISTER

2012-02-14 Thread Matt Hamilton

Thanks Kevin. 

Seems like remotesecret takes over if secret is not defined - I'll do further 
tests..

The authentication for REGISTERs and SUBSCRIBEs are done at a sip proxy 
(opensips) - I'll try to take care of the UAC authorization request for NOTIFY 
there (if possible).

Regards,
Matt

Hi,

For REGISTER and SUBSCRIBE requests coming from UACs, is it possible to
make Asterisk skip authentication even if a "secret" is defined in
sip.conf for the peer; i.e. similar to insecure=invite for INVITE requests?

If I leave "secret" blank, Asterisk doesn't require any authentication -
this works as I want. However, I also use "SIP NOTIFY" to contact UACs
(UACs are set to require authorization for NOTIFY), but without the
"secret" defined, Asterisk can't send the correct authorization.


You can use 'remotesecret' to set the secret string for Asterisk to use 
to respond to authentication challenges. There isn't any way to make 
REGISTER/SUBSCRIBE/etc. insecure like there is for INVITEs... I can't 
imagine that many people would want unauthenticated REGISTERs to be 
allowed :-)
