Eugene commented on ASTERISK-22820:
-----------------------------------

As far as I understand it will be impossible to implement this after Asterisk 12 is out. Can we do something about this?

> Starting from draft 2 of RFC 5456 (October 23, 2006) plaintext auth is not supported in IAX2 protocol. Please refer to section 8.6.13 of RFC 5456.
> But plaintext auth is still supported by Asterisk implementation of IAX2. This support should be dropped.
> Attached patch, based on asterisk-dev discussion, adds deprecation warning on startup if 'auth' is set to 'plaintext', changes default values of 'auth' from 'md5, plaintext' to 'md5', and adds note to UPGRADE.txt
> auth=plaintext setting will remain deprecated in Asterisk 12 and 13, and IAX2 plaintext support will be removed in Asterisk 14.
