I admit I wanted to put it on the wiki and couldn't figure out how to start a new page!!! (Maybe I'm just thick ;-(
There is also another document on the wiki about the subject at http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+-+dual+servers Anyhow, here is mine: Method 1 Rec'g Svr iax.conf [REC_SERVER] type=user host=my.calling.server.ca secret=mysecret context=local trunk=yes Send'g Svr extensions.conf [mycontext] exten => _5XXX,1,Dial(IAX2/REC_SERVER:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]) exten => _5XXX,2,Hangup exten => _5XXX,102,Hangup Any call in the mycontext context on Calling Server to extensions 5000-5999 (mapped by extension _5XXX) will get sent to receiving server (my.receiving.server.ca) into the local context on the receiving server. Performing the same configuration in the opposite direction will allow cross-calls between Asterisk systems. Pros: Simple, all references in one file per server. Cons: Information in dialing string will appear in logs inclusive of user:password. Dial string becomes very long. Method 2 Rev'g Svr iax.conf[REC_SERVER] type=user host=my.calling.server.ca secret=mysecret context=local trunk=yes Send'g Svr iax.conf [REMOTE_SERVER] type=peer host=my.receiving.server.ca secret=mysecret context=local extensions.conf [mycontext] exten => 5XXX,1,Dial(IAX2/REMOTE_SERVER/${EXTEN}) exten => _5XXX,2,Hangup exten => _5XXX,102,Hangup Pros: User:Password are stored in the calling server?s iax.conf file and not part of the Dial string. This is more secure in that they are not recorded in log in files.Dial strings much shorter and concise. Cons: Calling server now must have iax.conf and extensions.conf coordinated making setup a little more complicated.Must user ?type=? definition correctly:Caller = ?peer?; Receiver = ?user?Type=friend is a bi-directional relationship meaning both ?peer? and ?user? at the same time. Unknown IP (Dynamic IP on one server) Register Command If the calling server does not have a fixed IP address or DNS namespace then the iax.conf file description of the calling server located on the receiving server should specify host=dynamic. If the calling server host is specified as dynamic, the calling server must register with the receiving server with the register command. Rec'g Svr iax.conf [REC_SERVER] type=user host=dynamic secret=mysecret context=local trunk=yes Send'g Svr iax.conf register => REC_SERVER:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [REMOTE_SERVER] type=peer host=dynamic context=local extensions.conf [mycontext] exten => 5XXX,1,Dial(IAX2/REMOTE_SERVER/${EXTEN}) exten => _5XXX,2,Hangup exten => _5XXX,102,Hangup I hope this is both accurate and helpful! dbc. _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
