Folks,
I've been fighting with this seems like forever now and can't make it
work in 1.6.x. In 1.4.x, I could make sure a particular voip provider
was always first in the list by making him as an #include and putting
it last.
Now in 1.6.x I can never get this to take. I really don't want to run
TWO asterisk servers just for some IAX trunking.
Real problem: my voip provider doesn't send username authentication,
just their secret. If they are either the first or the only, then all
works because * checks just the first iax2 entry in the "show iax2
peers" list. If they are anything but first, all my incoming calls
from them fail (identification failure).
Is there ANY way to make them first? In 1.6.x they are always 3rd.
TIA,
David A. Bandel

In 1.6.x they are always 3rd.Unfortunately the answer is no; in Asterisk 1.6.x chan_iax2 stores users/peers in a hash table, which as you have determined means they are not stored in any particularly obvious order... and even if you did determine the order, it could change in the future if the hash table definition is changed. Your provider really needs to use a proper authentication mechanism, or you need to restrict that peer/user entry to their IP address(es) if possible. -- Kevin P.

It seems _really_ unlikely - and possibly a protocol violation - for them to be sending a secret without a username. Tim.
