Indeed. In practice though you want to stop the retransmission immediately and 
you usually don't know of the appropriate response yet so 100 is sent.

The PJSIP channel driver has no option or ability to do this. I do not recall 
if chan_sip does.

[asterisk-users] Is 100 trying mandatory? Can asterisk answer with 180 without prior 100 trying?

[Benoit Panizzon]

Hey List

I sometimes use our asterisk server to do some debugging or other PBX
and SBC.

Now we have a case where a PBX is replying an incomming invite with 180
ringing immediately. It looks like the SBC does not accept this.

According to my understanding of the RFC 3261 any provisional (aka
1XX) reply should be good enough to make the sender stop re-sending
invites and accept this as a reply from the destination.

So 100 trying would be option and a reply could also be directly 180
ringing.

So maybe some RFC specialist could tell me how this is exactly supposed
to work of if I maybe missed some other RFC more clear about that topic.

To try to reproduce the problem with our SBC, is there a way to tell
the asterisk, preferably PJSIP, to directly answer with 180 ringing
without prior 100 trying?

Hi,

To my understanding, you are using ical export with caldav, it won't work:
1. Replace type=caldav by type=ical
2. remove user and secret line.
3. Reload calendar module or restart asterisk to be sure.

Have a nice week.

 BTW, you use old versions of libical, Asterisk and Debian, I recommend
 you to upgrade or install a new server with Debian Stretch: You will have
 Asterisk 13, libical2 and security upgrades.
 Asterisk 11 doesn't have security fixes anymore.

Hi all,


i have configured my calendar.conf accordingly to the Asterisk-the
definitive guide 4th edition and even though i can see the calendar, it
always shows me as free.
as you can see in the attached printscreen from my calendar, it has 3
bookings today, but the asterisk calendar shows me as free.  Here is what's
going on

PBX*CLI> calendar show calendar myGoogleCal
Name  : myGoogleCal
Notify channel: SIP/601
Notify context: calendar
Notify extension  :
Notify applicatio :
Notify appdata:
Refresh time  : 15

Autoreminder  : 10

 Hi. Thanks for the idea for calendar, it sounds better. i did not
 manage to make it work though. i am running debian 8 32 bit with asterisk
 11.25.3. I have installed the packages libneon27-dev & libical-dev then in
 /etc/asterisk the file calendar.conf has the following entries:
 [Gcalendar]

 type=caldav
 url=https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/atuxn...@gmail.com/events/
 user=atuxn...@gmail.com
 secret=MySuperDooperPasswd
 refresh=15



 then a reload to the system and try to see:
 PBX> calendar show calendars
 Calendar Type Status
   --



 there is nothing shown over here. Off course i checked if my calendar
 is public but i have not an idea why it is not working.
