[asterisk-users] RTCP packets when on hold

[Ryan Tucker]

I have continued searching but still haven’t found any way to get asterisk to send RTCPs when on hold.

This issue seems to have come up several times and has been reported by several people but nothing seems to have come of it. Should I be filing a bug report? Or are there any workarounds available on the asterisk side?

Subject: [asterisk-users] RTCP packets when on hold

Hi,

It seems that asterisk doesn't send RTCP packets when a call is on hold. Is there any way to get asterisk to send these packets?

I'm in the process of setting up a Lync (microsoft voice) server which will use an asterisk box as a gateway. The trunking between asterisk and lync is 'working' however when a call is put on hold asterisk stops sending RTCP packets to lync, and after 30 seconds of not receiving RTCP packets, lync drops the call due to timeout.

I did find two posts from people who came accross this same issue back in 2008, however there was no solution given.

Thanks in advance,


Ryan.
