[asterisk-users] Incoming Call matching to peer

[Douglas Garstang]

I have this in sip.conf:

[ata1]
username = ata1
accountcode = ata1
qualify = yes
secret = foo
type = friend
host = dynamic
fromdomain = ipt.gumby.com
context = fromata_start
qualify = yes

When a call comes in from this device, if I have type=peer, Asterisk doesn't match it, but it does if type=friend. Why not? I thought peers made and received calls, and friends only made calls. If that's the case, then it should match against type=peer, and certainly not against type=friend.
