> Asterisk can be used as SIP server and client at the same time. Furthermore, Asterisk can be ran as IPv4-only, IPv6-only, or dual stack server. On default, Asterisk is an IPv4-only server and the {{bindaddr}} is null. Because I added {{bindaddr=::}} to the configuration file {{sip.conf}}, my Asterisk listens on the IPv4 and IPv6 wildcards. In that case, the {{bindaddr}} is not null but unspecified ({{INADDR_ANY}}). Similar for UDP, TCP, and TLS: On default, Asterisk is using just UDP. Therefore, I added {{tlsenable=yes}} to my {{sip.conf}}.
> Since 13.16, my Asterisk is unable to connect to other IPv4-only SIP services via TLS, with the error message:
> bq. ast_tcptls_client_create: Unable to bind SIP socket to \[::\]:0: Address family not supported by protocol
> For example here in Germany, I use the VoIP/SIP provider dus.net via _secure.dus.net_ to call (traditional) phone numbers. However, IPv6 services like _securev6.dus.net_ and services based on UDP like _proxy.dus.net_ are of no issue.
> Consequently, this issue affects only those chan_sip which were
> * enabled for dual-stack {{bindaddr=::}}, and
> * enabled for TCP {{tcpenable=yes}} and/or TLS {{tlsenable=yes}}, and
> * tried to register and/or invite a IPv4-only service,
> * via TCP or TLS.
> The resolution of ASTERISK-26922 revealed this bug, which was present since day one of the IPv6 support in Asterisk seven years ago. Attached is a patch to check not only for ‘is null’ but also whether the current bind address ‘is any’.
