Re: [asterisk-users] Re: Loosing IAX connection between offices

2006-12-12 Thread DM

I converted my connections from IAX to SIP and still having the same
problem.  I'm loosing connection between B and A.  There is also an Office
C.  My problems seem to be with Office B.  Now that I have switched to SIP,
I still have the same problem when the IP address changes at Office C,
Office B looses connection and can not be restablished with a SIP RELOAD.

I think the problem is DNS related, either in Asterisk or the router.
Though, this is getting above my head at this point.  Can anyone point me in
right direction?

 Office A is set up with refresh dns and cron job for iax2 reload every
 5 minutes.  It rarely looses connection to Office B.

Short story: IAX is still crap in 1.2.13 (haven't tested 1.4), it's
unreliable and perfectly good hosts will become UNREACHABLE for no
apparent reason, while SIP connections keep going through.

For trunking, avoid IAX and use SIP.

Is this with or without the qualify= option in IAX2.

For the record I have had 4 asterisk (1.2.6) boxes connected with IAX 
trunks (every box registers with every other box) for over 6 months now 
with no issues. I did have some issues with a Linksys firewall, but that 
was with SIP registrations, not IAX. A firmware update fixed that.


I'm no * dev, but what exactly is so crap about IAX?
