[Asterisk-Users] using a billing system

[William Piper]

Try setting the following in the trunk settings of the a2billing gui.

TRUNKCODE=carrier (any name will do here)
PREFIX=NULL
REMOVE PREFIX=NULL
PROVIDERTECH=SIP
PROVIDERIP=x.x.x.x(the IP of your telco)


If that doesn't work, you can try this.

TRUNKCODE=carrier (any name will do here)
PREFIX=NULL
REMOVE PREFIX=NULL
PROVIDERTECH=local
PROVIDERIP=dialplan context
for "dialplan context" put the context that you would normally dial in
extensions.conf

Its almost done....
but now Im failing to authenticate with my Telco's gateway, because the 
registration information is in sip.conf:

[my-telco]
type=friend
host=mytelco.com
disallow=all
allow=ulaw                     
allow=alaw
username=username
fromuser=username
secret=password

and I used to make SIP calls like this:
exten => _XXXXXXXXXXXX,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN}@my-telco)

Now, with the code you gave me, Asterisk is consulting Asterisk2Billing:

exten => _XXXXXXXXXXXX,1,Answer
exten => _XXXXXXXXXXXX,2,Wait,2
exten => _XXXXXXXXXXXX,3,DeadAGI,a2billing.php
exten => _XXXXXXXXXXXX,4,Wait,2
exten => _XXXXXXXXXXXX,5,Hangup

 but when I place the call, he fails to authenticate with my-telco
:(


How can I use the registration information that is in sip.conf and 
continue to use Asterisk2Billing ?
Thanks
Joao Pereira
