[Asterisk-Users] Dial via sip gateway?

[Dawid Mielnik]

The mediatrix does have unique username/passwd for each port. At least the
1104 FXS does. Each port can be registered separately with *. I assume other
way round should work as well then.

regards,

Dave

What happens if you don't use a register => line in sip.conf, but do
include a section like:
[mediatrixport1]
username=
password=
host=

Just to check my theory, I did some testing via fwd. I discovered that if
I include a register => line with my fwd info, then when I call my fwd
number (outbound through iaxtel) it rings in. But I can't call out via
fwd. So then I put in my [fwd] service definition, removed the register
line, and waited for the old registration to expire.  Then I tried calling
my fwd number (again through iaxtel). This time I got the message about
the user being offline. But now I can call out via fwd, even though calls
wouldn't come in. This demonstrates that the [fwd] section is used by
Dial() when I try to place a call out through that service, and that the
register line isn't needed for the outbound call.

Somebody mentioned that the mediatrix lets you set a unique
username/password for each of its ports. It seems that you could set up
four service definitions, each using a different user/pwd pair. Then *
will use a different user/pwd pair to log in to the mediatrix, depending
upon which service definition was called for by the Dial() statement.

Or does the mediatrix not really have a distinct user/pwd pair for
accessing each port?
