Ok, ok, ....

It is not an error, it is a warning.
It is mentioned in iax.conf:

; Minimum and maximum amounts of time that IAX peers can request as
; a registration expiration interval (in seconds).
; minregexpire = 60
; maxregexpire = 60

Since a leading ";" it seems to be default!

Reading my original post, it says: "611 is a firefly soft phone."

Combining our findings now:  It seems that firefly wants to register 
every 1200 seconds, but iax.conf only allows 60. How can I stop this 
warning message?

BTW, we use the term iax2, but we still have a iax.conf. Should that not 
be at a future point of time be the same?
