[asterisk-users] Confusion with the status of SIP Trunk

KA packets is one (perhaps the stated) function.  But, in my experience, you
can "run" a "dead" SIP line with qualify=no.

Oh.. thank you. That could be the reason. Let me try that. 

 

But In fact, I thought qualify = yes is used to send some thing like keep
alive packets in an already connected trunk to make sure the trunk is still
alive.

In my case the trunk was completely down, and then it was showing status OK
as soon as the Internet came up.

If you use qualify=yes, you should only get OK when the line is functional.

Hi,

 

I just wanted to clear a doubt I had. In a SIP trunk, will it show "OK"
status even if only one side of the SIP trunk is configured when we do " sip
show peers " ?? 

If yes, is there any other way to make sure that the trunk is ready for
making calls??  Description: cid:gtalk.323 at goomoji.gmail

 

Last day we had a situation here at my Office. There was a fiber cut around
our area and one of our leased lines went down. We changed to our secondary
line and had to inform our SIP Trunk provider to make the corresponding
changes in IP at their end.

But even before they did that my trunk status was showing OK and this caused
us a lot of confusion.  

 

Thank You.  Description: cid:gtalk.330 at goomoji.gmail
