             Summary: Outgoing Google Motif Calls connect but continue ringing on outgoing side
                 Key: ASTERISK-20645
                 URL: https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-20645
             Project: Asterisk
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: None
          Components: Channels/chan_motif
    Affects Versions: 11.0.0
         Environment: Red Hat Linux 5
            Reporter: Roy
            Severity: Critical


I upgraded from Asterisk 10 to 11 and switched from gtalk.conf and jabber.conf to use motif.conf and xmpp.conf.

I disabled gtalk and jabber from loading in modules.conf
noload => res_jabber.so
noload => chan_gtalk.so

After copying my settings to the new conf files and restarting Asterisk I had no errors, but making outgoing calls from clients just kept ringing even though the other side picks up and hears nothing.

I played with my settings for days and have no idea what I changed that got it working so I'm hoping someone can tell me what caused this and maybe what I changed that fixed it.

Now it works but I don't know why so I'd like some feedback.

My Asterisk Server is NOT behind a NAT but my Clients are and I'm using Google Voice for incoming and outgoing calls.

Here is what I have done.

I completely removed my [general] section from motif.conf and added a [default](!) and transport=google-v1 like the example states.  The [general] section was needed in gtalk.conf to get it working but seems to not be of any use now.

[general]
;context=incoming                ;;Context to dump call into
;bindaddr=0.0.0.0               ;;Address to bind to
;bindaddr=76.12.113.228
;externip=76.12.113.228
;disallow=all
;allow=ulaw
;allowguest=yes                  ;;Allow calls from people not in peer list

[default](!)
disallow=all
allow=alaw
allow=ulaw
allow=h264
transport=google-v1 ;Using google or google-v1 didn't make a difference
context=incoming

[asterisk](default)
connection=asterisk

I removed the /Talk suffix from my xmpp.conf username fields and changed timeout=5. It took me a while to notice the /Talk was not needed anymore.
[asterisk]
type=client                             ;;Client or Component connection
serverhost=talk.google.com              ;;Route to server for example, talk.google.com
username=asterisk at gmail.com    ;;Username with optional resource.
secret=secret                         ;;Password
priority=1                             ;;Resource priority
port=5222                               ;;Port to use defaults to 5222
usetls=yes                              ;;Use tls or not
usesasl=yes                             ;;Use sasl or not
status=available                        ;;One of: chat, available, away, xaway, or dnd
statusmessage="Asterisk Server"         ;;Have custom status message for Asterisk.
timeout=5

I changed my sip settings for my google clients to:
[asterisk]
host=dynamic
type=friend
nat=force_rport,comedia
canrevinvite=no
qualify=yes
dtmfmode=rfc2833
context=home
disallow=all
allow=ulaw;h263

Can someone tell me if these settings are correct?  I have no idea but it works now.

I also made sure port 5060 and 5222 was open in iptables
