[asterisk-dev] Code Support request for IAX provider sending registration refreshes of 0

[James Trix]

Tim that setting looks like it worked thank you for the fix and also
the background info its been 20 minutes and the registered status
looks ok. I will have to google a little more to find out more about
this setting to fully understand what the command is doing to the
connection but for now you have saved me doing a rebuild..... I was a
little worried about doing the rebuild but deep now I think I was
looking forward to it  so I could get a better understanding of linux
and Asterisk

Thanks again for your help



IAX2 Sip Registry
Host                  Username    Perceived             Refresh  State
202.148.48.108:4569   xxxxxxxxx  xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:4569            0  Registered
Verbosity is at least 1
