Re: [gentoo-user] Asterisk - need some help [SOLVED]

2024-02-03 Thread William Kenworthy
I believe asterisk is evolving way from a "carrier" mindset more into an 
IT one. Losing support for ancient hardware is part of that. I no longer 
use IAX (used it to trunk multiple instances across vpn's - worked 
well.)  Currently I only have a couple of now quite old Cisco phones and 
Jami softphones on android using SIP to a single asterisk.


I incrementally upgrade asterisk mostly by a clean install carrying over 
config files into an LXC instance (using a golden master setup) which 
has been trouble free until pjsip - and thats more my fault in missing 
that SIP was deprecated and having to unexpectedly fault find it.  The 
conversion script worked fine for internal extensions, but the uplink 
trunk required a few hours extra work until I stumbled over the correct 
syntax - too many options confusing things.


My recommendation would be to spin up a VM and install a test instance 
and start afresh - older asterisk versions are usually a security risk 
as time goes on.

Conversion scrip  (sip->pjsip) will not do any good if the hardware 
(AudioCodes boxes, Sipura and other units) are not compatible with pjsip.

Is IAX is gone as well in newer versions?

I have an impression this is the end of old Asterisk that Digium 
started; very, very sad :-/

It had good community support.

Newer versions 18+ are not compatible with older hardware and learning 
curve/conversion is not worth it.

I'll hang on to 16.30.1 as long as I can.

Note that the CLI commands are not equivalent to sip (including help,

I use asterisk all the time, but I don't use the gentoo package, I
compile from source myself because some of the computers I use it on
have different requirements and this way I have more conttrol as to
what goes on.


I have been using asterisk for some time but have run into strange problem now.

I have home-asterisk and remote-location-asterisk they are connected via 
openvpn and IAX
and I use iax to register home-asterisk to remote-asterisk

At home I have two computers (main-asterisk and backup-asterisk), running save 
version of Asterisk, same dial-plan, same config files, all files in 
/etc/asterisk are identical
on home-comuters, I compare them with "meld"

- backup-asterisk to remote-asterisk works OK, I can call remote asterisk 
internally over IAX and remote asterisk receive the call and voice is working.

- main-asterisk to remote-asterisk doesn't work well and I don't know how to 
troubleshoot.

When I place a call to remote-asterisk, internally over IAX the phone is 
ringing but when somebody answer the call we can not hear each other.
When somebody from remote-asterisk calls me (home-asterisk) internally over IAX 
 voice is working correctly; it only happen when I place a call from
home-asterisk to remote-asterisk (and only from my main-computer) it is not 
working.

When I call remote-asterisk over POTS line it works OK.



Sounds like a firewall setting on the home computers, make sure all
the ports are open between the start and end of the asterisk rpt
ports.  Are you using a router, or is the asterisk on a public ip?
That is what I can think of at the moment.


On home computer there are no ports that are open, remote computer have port 
open to make openvpn connection
I'm using router, and asterisks are not on public IP, on private IP.

What do your logs reveal -- you should be surre to set debug in your
logs before testing.  Also, what happens if you use sip instead of
aix?


Good suggestion trying SIP instead of IAX since the call doesn't go over 
firewall.
 I'll try it over the weekend.

I do not use asterisk, but I would look at configuration files to see if there 
is some filtering of allowed IP addresses for connections.  My first suspicion 
would be that main-asterisk and/or backup-asterisk has changed its address as 
seen by remote-asterisk and is now being handled differently.


When home-asterisk register IAX with the remote-asterisk, I can see it on the 
asterisk-CLI commend line: "iax show registry" the are registered with each 
other,
otherwise the call wouldn't go through at all.

Here is the output, from both asterisks; one that works and one that doesn't:

Sounds like a firewall setting on the home computers, make sure all
the ports are open between the start and end of the asterisk rpt
ports.  Are you using a router, or is the asterisk on a public ip?
That is what I can think of at the moment.

I need some help.

Have save version of asterisk is working correctly on one computer  
but the other.





I use asterisk all the time, but I don't use the gentoo package, I
compile from source myself because some of the computers I use it on
have different requirements and this way I have more conttrol as to
what goes on.


I have been using asterisk for some time but have run into strange  
problem now.


I have home-asterisk and remote-location-asterisk they are connected  
via openvpn and IAX

and I use iax to register home-asterisk to remote-asterisk

At home I have two computers (main-asterisk and backup-asterisk),  
running save version of Asterisk, same dial-plan, same config files,  
all files in /etc/asterisk are identical

on home-comuters, I compare them with "meld"

- backup-asterisk to remote-asterisk works OK, I can call remote  
asterisk internally over IAX and remote asterisk receive the call and  
voice is working.


- main-asterisk to remote-asterisk doesn't work well and I don't know  
how to troubleshoot.


When I place a call to remote-asterisk, internally over IAX the phone  
is ringing but when somebody answer the call we can not hear each  
other.
When somebody from remote-asterisk calls me (home-asterisk)  
internally over IAX  voice is working correctly; it only happen when  
I place a call from
home-asterisk to remote-asterisk (and only from my main-computer) it  
is not working.


When I call remote-asterisk over POTS line it works OK.


I do not use asterisk, but I would look at configuration files to see  
if there is some filtering of allowed IP addresses for connections.  My  
first suspicion would be that main-asterisk and/or backup-asterisk has  
changed its address as seen by remote-asterisk and is now being handled  
differently.
