[Asterisk-Users] IAX clients are Unmonitored / UNREACHABLE

[loertel]

We have a problem with our iaxclients.

Our asterisk runs on a public host with debian  and many of our IAX2 clients
are natted.

 

The iax.conf looks like:

 

[23456]

accountcode=123

type=friend

context=user

auth=md5

secret=xxxx

username=23456

callerid=Testuser 1 <23456>

notransfer=yes

host=dynamic

 

The cli command IAX2 show peers shows all clients as unmonitored

CLI> IAX2 show peers

 

Name/Username    Host                 Mask             Port      Status

23456/23456    80.145.0.xxx   (D)  255.255.255.255  35263
Unmonitored

12345/12345    217.5.22.xxx   (D)  255.255.255.255  4569         Unmonitored

 

This the only way we that the clients can make a call. So I tried to use the
qualify option in the iax.conf:

[23456]

accountcode=123

type=friend

context=user

auth=md5

secret=xxxx

username=23456

callerid=Testuser 1 <23456>

notransfer=yes

host=dynamic

nat=yes

qualify=yes

 

and then the cli says

CLI> IAX2 show peers

 

Name/Username    Host                 Mask             Port      Status

23456/23456    80.145.0.xxx   (D)  255.255.255.255  35263
UNREACHABLE

12345/12345    217.5.22.xxx   (D)  255.255.255.255  4569         UNREACHABLE

 

And the clients are´nt able to make a call anymore.

 

Asterisk says:  “rejected connect attempt”

 

The next problem is the port 4569, if I activate the line

“PORT=4569” in the IAX.conf – Asterisk says: “Ignoring Port for Now” 

 

And sometimes asterisk says:

 

Apr 20 23:46:20 WARNING[789526]: format_gsm.c:142 gsm_read: Short read (23)
(Interrupted system call)!

 

Sometimes calls are disconnected ?

 

Both tested with Asterisk 0.7.2 from diginum ftp and with cvs 16.04.04

 

We use:   Asterisk cvs 16.04.04

               On debian kernel 2.4.26

               Without additional isdn or BRI/PRI hardware

               Tested with Clients: Iaxclient, IAXphone and DIAX

 

 

Hope somebody can help – I´m searching for about one week and found nothing

.

 

Regards
