I appologize if this was already answered somwhere on http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk, I'm sure it probably is. And if you wish to just point me to a link that would be appreciated. I am very new to asterisk and unix all around, so these questions may sound rather ignorant. First being, how do I setup asterisk to point to another asterisk server and make all the lines which should be PSTN or POTS go directly to another existing asterisk server by using accounts? For instance, if I was using another asterisk service with my voip phone to connect to it how could I make my local server use that account as a line? Also, Is there any really good documentation on configuring asterisk, besides the asterisk handbook. Maybe something a little more indepth and something explaining all the commands available on the console? Thanks a lot -chad -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi I'm trying to put up an sip pbx system for my company but i'm getting some problems when I'm trying to call from server ( branch A ) to server ( branch B ). This is my extentions.conf : exten => 3003,1,Dial,SIP/3003@192.168.0.200 ________________________________________________________ And this is what I get when I try to dial that user in branch B _________________________________________________________ -- Executing Dial("SIP/5001-66b1", "SIP/3003@192.168.0.200") in new stack -- Called 3003@192.168.0.200 -- Got SIP response 404 "Not Found" back from 192.168.0.200 -- SIP/192.168.0.200-e638 is circuit-busy == Everyone is busy/congested at this time (1:0/1/0) == Auto fallthrough, channel 'SIP/5001-66b1' status is 'CONGESTION' Both servers are exactly the same... What can the problem be, that branch B server doesn't route the call through Thx Quintin -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

If your looking to link 2 asterisk boxes might I suggest IAX. Much more efficient in the way bandwidth is utilized between the locations. Also if you want to use your sip solution, have you setup the other end point in your SIP.CONF? I have never got IP dialing to work in asterisk but it works fine when assigned in the conf file. .o-------------------------------------------------------o.

Well yes and no. If they have static IP's then you only need to setup a context as such: You would assign the following information on your Branch B server with BranchA's information. [branchA] type=friend defaultip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx context=default insecure=yes host=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx disallow=all allow=g729 allow=alaw allow=ulaw You would do the same here but for the Branch A server with Branch B's config. [branchB] type=friend defaultip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx context=default insecure=yes host=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx disallow=all allow=g729 allow=alaw allow=ulaw In your extensions.conf your dialplan would look something like this: exten => _30.,1,Dial(${EXTEN}@branchb,23,r) ; use this for calling people on branch B There is no need to register the boxes with each other if they are static, which is the easiest way to set this up. Any other questions lemme know.. .o-------------------------------------------------------o.
