[asterisk-users] Audiocodes MP-114 2FXO/2FXS help registering with Asterisk

[Joseph]

What what everybody says, it is a good hardware but configuration samples are not easy to find and going through 500page manual is not easy.
What they are missing is short configuration guide with samples for specific software like asterisk.
My software version is 5.40A I see early next week what is the latest available.

I did not change much and trying to register just one line first, but is not easy all I'm getting is:
chan_sip.c:15593 handle_request_register: Registration from '<sip:369 at 10.0.0.109>' failed for '10.0.0.157' - Wrong password

369 is my extension, 10.0.0.109 is my Asterisk server, 10.0.0.157 is AudioCodes IP

So I have 
Use Default Proxy: Yes
Proxy Set Table: ==> What did you enter here (I enter: 10.0.0.109 UDP; do I need to set: Enable Proxy Keep Alive?)

Proxy Name: 10.0.0.109

The below two settings (what to put in there, setting from sip.conf: eg.: but which one?
Registrar Name 	 	
Registrar IP Address

Under:
Gateway Name (I entered asterisk IP) 10.0.0.109

Again below is:
User Name 	 	
Password
Not sure what to put in above.

Is above sections for routing calls to asterisk?

No, I don't use prefixes they are dropped by asterisk; so I configured single stage dialing under:
Advanced Applications -> FXO Settings -> Dialing Mode

Here I entered authentication from one of my sip.conf entry: [369]
[369] ; outgoing/incoming call on fxs port
type=friend
host=dynamic
context=internal
secret=523
username=369
mailbox=369
;dtmfmode=rfc2833
;dtmfmode=inband
disallow=all 
allow=ulaw   
allow=alaw     
canreinvite=yes
nat=no
callgroup=1
pickupgroup=1

I need to find out from the manual what these setting do.
I was hoping to find some setting reference on Wiki but there are none :-/ it seems to me the device is not very popular among asterisk users, if it was 
somebody would create detailed configuration for asterisk.
