[asterisk-users] Monitoring connection to VoIP provider?

[Gilles]

Hello

	I was wondering if Asterisk can be configured to monitor a
connection to a VoIP provider, whether someone is currently using it
for a call or the connection is idle?

FWIW, my VoIP provider doesn't run an iperf server on their side. I
don't know if ping/traceroute is a good enough solution to monitor an
SIP connection.

I'd like this so I can check how good the line is before calling or
receiving a call.

Thank you.
