[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk with ShoreTel 210 (MGCP)

[Duane Cox]

Yes * can work with MGCP phones directly.  You have a configuration issue.

a typical mgcp.conf might be:
[general]
port            = 2427
bindaddr        = 0.0.0.0

[10.21.4.2]
accountcode     = 1123
amaflags        = billing
context         = main
host            = 10.21.4.2
wcardep         = aaln/*
callerid        = "YOUR NAME" <1231231234>
callwaiting     = no
callreturn      = yes
cancallforward  = yes
canreinvite     = no
threewaycalling = no
transfer        = no
dtmfmode        = none
line => aaln/1

turn on MGCP debug "mgcp debug" and see what messages are going to and fro.

I would suspect that your end device is setup looking for host/domain name convention and not IP.
If so, change * to match or change your device to IP and not dns.

GoodLuck,
Duane Cox
