[asterisk-users] Configure SIP reply timeout (timerb in sip.conf)

[Markus]

Reply to self: Found the problem after reading this post:

You need to set timert1 in the peer config to *something*, otherwise it 
will ignore the timerb setting. Bug? It now looks like this and works fine:

[peer01]
host=1.2.3.4
type=peer
context=nowhere
disallow=all
allow=alaw
allow=ulaw
canreinvite=no
dtmfmode=rfc2833
timert1=500
timerb=2000

timert1=500 is the default anyway, according to sip.conf comments...

Regards
Markus
