[asterisk-users] One Way Audio with WebRTC (with external asterisk)

Hi again,

Just noticed this is being sent to the wrong thread... first time using a mailing list and I just replied to the mail sent by the mailing list for Amit's reply. Hope this time it works...

Anyway, I have audio from 1000 to 6901 working, that was a mistake on my side (I tested using the SIPml demo site and it worked, then realised I was missing a setting).

However, the issue still remains where 1000 can not always hear 6901. As mentioned before, this works only SOMETIMES, and when it does work asteriskgary.local sees RTP packets coming FROM 192.168.3.131 (asteriskrtc.local).

Unsure what would be causing this, because it does work sometimes and doesn't at others, with no obvious reason either way.

Thanks again.

Kind Regards,

Gary Shergill

Hi Amit,

ICE/STUN is configured correctly. The extension for the webrtc user is defined in sip.conf on the asteriskrtc.local server. The other user is defined in Elastix.

I have "directmedia=no" set for the user on asteriskrtc.local.

My exact setup/scenario is below:
- asteriskgary.local has a route to dial extensions on my Elastix server.
- asteriskgary.local has a route to dial extensions on asteriskrtc.local server.
- The call is being originated from asteriskgary.local. The first party is an extension on asteriskgary.local, the destination party is an extension on my Elastix server.

What's happening is as follows (this is a reverse of the previous case as 6901 is now dialling 1000):
- User on asteriskgary.local places a call to 1000, his number is 6901
- 6901 answers on the web browser and begins to dial 1000
- 1000 answers and the call is established correctly
- SOMETIMES 1000 can hear 6901. Other times he can not (seems to be random...)
- 6901 can NEVER hear 1000

key:
192.168.3.127 - asteriskgary.local
192.168.3.131 - asteriskrtc.local
192.168.3.150 - machine running chrome browser where 6901 is logged on
192.168.3.100 - phone where 1000 is logged on

(1000 can hear 6901) RTP TRACE ON asteriskrtc.local

SIP.conf
[6901]
type=peer
username=6901
host=dynamic
secret=6901
qualify=yes
context=webrtc
hasiax = no
hassip = yes
encryption = yes
avpf = yes
icesupport = yes
videosupport=no
directmedia=no
canreinvite=no

You can see from the trace packets that sometimes asteriskgary.local sees no packets from asteriskrtc.local, and at the same time the packets on asteriskrtc.local show half the number of records (there is no "Probation passed - setting RTP source address to 192.168.3.127:15942 which causes twice the number of packets, no idea if this is relevant though).

Please ask if you need anything else. I'm totally stumped with this issue... Note that on asteriskgary.local ICE is not configured, I wouldn't have though it would need it as it isn't talking with the webrtc client itself, it is just talking to an Asterisk server (and that asterisk server is the one which talks to the webrtc client).

Thank you.

Kind Regards,

Gary Shergill

Hi Gary

You need to check if ICE / STUN is configured.
How are these extensions configured? If you are in private network, you 
might have to disable DirectMedia / reInvite for calls going between 2 
asterisk boxes.
I hope this helps to resolve your issue.

*Thanks & Regards,*
