[Asterisk-Users] IAX2 Trunking help!

[Paul Mahler]

The register statement informs a remote * server of the location of the
local * server. If the local server is always at the same IP address, there
is no need to register with the remote server. IAX will work just fine with
no register statements at either side. 

Here is a typical iax.conf configuration to allow incoming connections from
a remote * server. This is from a working installation. 

; Inter-Asterisk eXchange driver definition (asterisk2)

 [general]
 port=4569
 accountcode=lss0101
 bandwidth=low
 allow=g723
 allow=g729
 disallow=lpc10
 allow=gsm 
 tos=lowdelay

 [asterisk]
 type=friend
 auth=md5
 secret=1945
 context=local
 host=dynamic
 defaultip=10.1.1.180
 qualify=yes

This statement at the remote * server would dial the local server with the
configuration shown above. Incoming calls would be directed to the "local"
context in extensions.conf. 

exten => _1XXX,1,Dial(IAX2/asterisk:1945 at 10.1.1.180/${EXTEN}@local)
