Hello all !
I am looking for a way to use an ata or ipphone mac address as a part of the
sip registration.
I've tried using arp tables, but it only works on local networks not thru
the internet..
I know that vonage uses some kind of mac auth, but I think that this is an
special feature of their equipments ain't it?
Have anyone accomplished this?
Any ideas would be very very appreciated
The vonage stuff uses the mac address "string" because it is guaranteed
to be unique, and that string is available for scripts within (at least
some of) the ata's to use. Vonage does not have access to the mac
address from a networking perspective, which is what you've already noted.
If you wanted to come up with some sort of mass-produced ata style box
that could register itself with servers and use a unique password, what
would you use? (Probably the mac address combined with an additional
string.)
If you look at the sipura devices (and other devices with sipura
software), you'll find the mac address is readily available and
preloaded into a script variable for you to use.
