[asterisk-users] sip.conf & realtime

[Dovid B]

At the moment in order to register you must use static configs in sip.conf. As far as the friend/peer etc. settings you can do that in sip.conf or in real time. You can also mix and match (use real time and static configuration).

  Subject: [asterisk-users] sip.conf & realtime


  Hi -

  I'm looking into realtime and I'm having a bit of a problem with the SIP part.  

  My review of the posts seems to indicate that I should use realtime static for the [general] part of my sip.conf including the registration commands:


  register=><did>:<secret>@<domain>/<did context> 


  and use realtime realtime (funny name!) for peers and friends:


  [myprovider] 
  type=peer 
  auth=md5 
  username=...
  fromuser=...
  fromdomain=... 
  secret=...
  host=... 
  port=5060 
  nat=yes 
  canreinvite=yes 
  qualify=no 
  disallow=all 
  allow=ulaw
  dtmfmode=rfc2833 
  insecure=port,invite
  context=incoming-sip


  Is this correct?  What's throwing me off is this statment found here: 


  NOTE: You can only store a static config OR a RealTime config. You cannot, for example, store sip.conf and use sipfriends via RealTime.


  This would suggest that I'll have to do a reload when I add a DiD, but a reload won't be necessary if a new SIP client is added.  Do I have it right? 

  Also, what's the difference between a peer and a user?  I used to think that a "user" was an agent  authorized to call in to my * box, a "peer" was an agent I could reach and a "freind" was both.  What's throwing me off now is the statement found here:


  With newer versions of Asterisk the concept of SIP 'users' will be phased out. 


  I can't understand this especially in the context of extconfig.conf that uses both a sipuser and sippeer entry.  Could someone clarify for me?  

  Thanks,
  H
