[Asterisk-Users] IAX2 Trunk Problems with NAT

Hi, 

 

I have successfully configured an IAX trunk between 2 asterisks, calls can
go through both ways without any problems, NAT in the middle of course
(iptables)

 

Now , leave them for a while ,   and make a call from the external server ,
it doesn't go through, 

 

Dial from the internal one, everything works fine again..

 

 

Now , it is clearly  a problem in the NAT engine, although IAX shouldn't
have this problem    

 

is there something I can do to prevent asterisk from tearing down the trunk
while it is not used

 

or , modify the iptables so that  to allow the incoming UDP connections

 

 

Cheers

i had same problem
you need to staticly set the register refresh variable in the iax2.h file and
recompile. (cannot remember exact variable.. will look if you cannot find it.
put this on the external server.
I had to drop mine down to 14 sec, the default is 60.
the problem is that the nat translations seems to only stay for 15 sec. dont
know why.
 
cheers

How did you configure the trunk between the 2 servers?
using register => user:pass@external server
or using extension?

Hi,         
        
 
        
I have successfully         configured an IAX trunk between 2 asterisks, calls
can go through both         ways without any problems, NAT in the middle of
course         (iptables)
        
 
        
Now , leave them for a while         ,   and make a call from the external
server , it doesnt go         through,
        
 
        
Dial from the internal one,         everything works fine again..
        
 
        
 
        
Now , it is clearly  a         problem in the NAT engine, although IAX shouldnt
have this         problem
        
 
        
is there something I can do         to prevent asterisk from tearing down the
trunk while it is not         used

BEHAVIOR: url(#default#VML)}..shape {	BEHAVIOR:
url(#default#VML)}st1\:*{behavior:url(#default#ieooui) }     ok.
your options are:
setup publishing rule on your IPtables to allow access to you internal *  from
external *
or:
register to the external server using the internalserver-peer username:pass
then you can, in your extension.conf, call dial(iax2/internal-peer)

How did you configure the trunk   between the 2 servers?

    
using register =>   user:pass@external server

    
or using   extension?

[Asterisk-Users] Re: IAX2 Trunk Problems with NAT

Simple! first: return the iax.h to it's original state because it's a
config issue, not a
code one.

In the internal server, you need to put in the relevant section a host directive
with the
name or IP of the external server AND a register under the [general] section of
the
iax.conf

In the external server, in the definition you need to put host=dynamic.
Then hoy need to  dial with the definition section name

***internal:
*iax.conf
[general]
register => user:pw@external-hostname
[iax-external]
host=external-hostname

*extensions.conf
 ... Dial (IAX2/iax-external/phonenumber)

***external:
*iax.conf
[iax-internal]
host=dynamic

*extensions.conf
... Dial (IAX2/iax-internal/phonenumber)

This also addresses the problem of someone having two iax2/udp streams, one of
each call,
even with trunking enabled.
