When did they implement switch-over from sip to pjsip? I'm using AudioCode boxes. I emerged and tried to load asterisk ver.18 but the audiocode would not register.

Re: [gentoo-user] Asterisk - need some help
In v18 sip is still present but deprecated - after this its removed. There is a conversion script (sip->pjsip) for migration. It required a few sacrificial chickens and much swearing until I got the upstream trunk to register (iinet in AU). Its all working good now, the pjsip config is more programmer friendly but also allows much more complex (read hard to follow/fault find) configuration. Note that the CLI commands are not equivalent to sip (including help, its now pjsip) with a different format. After install, but before re-configuration everything sip related disappears on restart.

Re: [gentoo-user] Asterisk - need some help [SOLVED]
I think I was able solve my problem, it was as simple as disabling "jitterbuffer" in iax.conf I can hear phone voicemail request from the remote asterisk, will know 100% on Monday. Regarding Asterisk I'm on 16.30.1 ; tried emerging ver.18 but my AudioCodes box wouldn't even register to it. Conversion scrip (sip->pjsip) will not do any good if the hardware (AudioCodes boxes, Sipura and other units) are not compatible with pjsip. Is IAX is gone as well in newer versions? I have an impression this is the end of old Asterisk that Digium started; very, very sad :-/ It had good community support. Newer versions 18+ are not compatible with older hardware and learning curve/conversion is not worth it. Sangoma - community support is almost not existent, few folks just bark at you if one mention still running ver. 16 I'll hang on to 16.30.1 as long as I can.

Re: [gentoo-user] Asterisk - need some help [SOLVED]
I believe asterisk is evolving way from a "carrier" mindset more into an IT one. Losing support for ancient hardware is part of that. I no longer use IAX (used it to trunk multiple instances across vpn's - worked well.) Currently I only have a couple of now quite old Cisco phones and Jami softphones on android using SIP to a single asterisk. I incrementally upgrade asterisk mostly by a clean install carrying over config files into an LXC instance (using a golden master setup) which has been trouble free until pjsip - and thats more my fault in missing that SIP was deprecated and having to unexpectedly fault find it. The conversion script worked fine for internal extensions, but the uplink trunk required a few hours extra work until I stumbled over the correct syntax - too many options confusing things. My recommendation would be to spin up a VM and install a test instance and start afresh - older asterisk versions are usually a security risk as time goes on.

Regarding Asterisk I'm on 16.30.1 ; tried emerging ver.18 but my AudioCodes box wouldn't even register to it. Conversion scrip (sip->pjsip) will not do any good if the hardware (AudioCodes boxes, Sipura and other units) are not compatible with pjsip. Is IAX is gone as well in newer versions? I have an impression this is the end of old Asterisk that Digium started; very, very sad :-/ It had good community support. Newer versions 18+ are not compatible with older hardware and learning curve/conversion is not worth it. Sangoma - community support is almost not existent, few folks just bark at you if one mention still running ver. 16 I'll hang on to 16.30.1 as long as I can.

It required a few sacrificial chickens and much swearing until I got the upstream trunk to register (iinet in AU). Its all working good now, the pjsip config is more programmer friendly but also allows much more complex (read hard to follow/fault find) configuration. Note that the CLI commands are not equivalent to sip (including help, its now pjsip) with a different format. After install, but before re-configuration everything sip related disappears on restart.

I would use at least asterisk 18 in all cases and if you can later versions. pjsip has been the preferred version for a while, sip is still OK, however.
