Asterisk -- Trunk Registration Timeout

[bartekd]

Hello,

Every day or 2 my asterisk times out, and won't register to FFL. I believe it is because I haven't set the registration timeout.

I see the following error in my asterisk Logs

Got SIP response 486 "Too many requests" back from 208.65.240.44:5060

Do you know what setting I need to change in Asterisk? I am using FreePBX.

Not familiar with FreePBX, but for plain vanilla Asterisk the settings would be,

In the [general] section of your sip.conf:

Code: Select all

defaultexpiry=3600
registertimeout=120

Unfortunately, this cannot be defined per-peer.

If your Asterisk is behind NAT, set the following for your FreePhoneLine peer:

Code: Select all

qualify=yes

I am looking in the top of my sip.conf file, and see this. Does anyone know how to add those lines to the sip.conf file in another way?

Hi,

If you are using freepbx you have to do it from the web interface .

I believe is under Asterisk->Asterisk SIP settings

I Googled this for you.

Please see the SIP Settings user guide for FreePBX pages 6 and 7: http://literature.schmoozecom.com/aster ... rguide.pdf

Try to set qualify=yes from within Edit SIP Trunk >> PEER Details.

EDIT: Fongo Support is faster than me

Actually I found the same settings in the FreePBX GUI. For anyone else having this issue, its located here:

Settings --> Asterisk Sip Settings

This is the options
Registrations
- RegisterTimeOut -- I set it at 120
- Register Attempts --- I left it at 0

Registration Times
- MinExpiry -- I left it at 60
- MaxExpiry -- I left it at 3600
- DefaultExpiry -- I changed it to 3600


Hopefully that will fix it. Ill try it and let everyone know in a few days if that worked.

You are both faster than me... Thanks for your help. Ill see how it goes.
