>Are these inbound or outbound calls? (both?) I am pretty confused >about all of this...
Sorry, I should have been more specific. The primary Asterisk box that connects with the PRI is the one I am concerned about being DoS'd - the remote IAX peer runs off of a cable modem with a dynamic IP, I have a script that checks it's IP every so often (hopefully before the lease expires!) and updates our DNS at the office accodingly, so we can address the remote host as [EMAIL PROTECTED] etc. Since it's dynamic, and it's on an ISP that is very proactive about DoS attacks, I'm not concerned about the remote host getting hosed, only the primary. The remote host would be inbound and outbound calls, but my users can live with outbound calls being kacked, inbound they would scream blue murder if it didn't work (salespeople) >Isn't this what qualify=<latency> (ie: qualify=200) in your iax/sip.conf >files is for? >If the latency exceeds 200ms, Asterisk will automatically disable the >link, and you can easily use a fail-over method in your dialplan. I >think something like isChanAvail() might work for that. I was thinking the same thing too, but from what I have seen qualify=XXX is not universally supported: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2005-January/082657.html We might use an IAX softphone or an IAXy and qualify may or may not be supported. Ideally, I'd like something that is as device / implementation independent as possible. Also, I believe isChanAvail() is boolean with no quality assurances it'd be worse in my context to throw a call out there that has lots of drops than to re-route the call to the PSTN, a lot of users in my organization are leery of VoIP in general and crappy calls would give them ammo to spread FUD about VoIP. _______________________________________________ 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
