[Asterisk-Users] Re: iax2 can't listen on virtual interface

He is using HA so I'm assuming he is running Master-Slave combo.

That means HA will start asterisk on slave after taking over the IP and
becoming a master.
Until that time, asterisk does not need to be running on a slave so
there should be no problems whatsoever.


If he wants to run asterisk in Master-Master that is a different story
but probably not what you want. Even then it is possible.
When becoming a master just script HA to unload chan_iax, assume the
virtual IP, substitute the bindip in iax.conf (sed will do just fine)
and then load chan_iax backup again. All that can be done while asterisk
is still running.

Regards

I don't think that will work on the box that doesn't currently own
that virtual address.

I think the only way is to make sure the bind address is 0.0.0.0

If you've already done that and it still doesn't work,
then I don't know, sorry.

Cheers
