[Asterisk-Users] SIP phones to Asterisk using MAC addressinsteadofIP address
There is some misconception about the usage of host=dynamic and defaultip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. And using more phones than Ips. You can use Dynamic and IP together without any issue. The following entries in sip.conf work fine. But the IP address has to be on only one phone per IP. You cannot have more than one phone configured for the same IP as the registration is lost to the other device, once the second device registers with the same IP Seshu ;IareaNet BK Office Extensions [1603] type=friend ; Friends place calls and receive calls context=dialout ; Context allows the user to call outside username=1234 ; Username for authentication secret=4321 ; secret or password for above user host=dynamic defaultip=10.12.14.46 ; default IP for this Extensioin dtmfmode=rfc2833 ; Choices are inband, rfc2833, or info disallow=all allow=g729 allow=g723.1 allow=ulaw ; dtmfmode=inband only works with ulaw or alaw! allow=alaw ; dtmfmode=inband only works with ulaw or alaw! allow=gsm progressinband=no ; Polycom phones don't work properly with "never" [1604] type=friend ; Friends place calls and receive calls context=dialout ; Context allows the user to call outside username=1235 ; Username for authentication secret=4325 ; secret or password for above user host=dynamic defaultip=10.12.14.46 ; default IP for this Extensioin dtmfmode=rfc2833 ; Choices are inband, rfc2833, or info disallow=all allow=g729 allow=g723.1 allow=ulaw ; dtmfmode=inband only works with ulaw or alaw! allow=alaw ; dtmfmode=inband only works with ulaw or alaw! allow=gsm progressinband=no ; Polycom phones don't work properly with "never" -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Alex Vishnev Sent: Monday, April 04, 2005 1:02 PM To: 'Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion' Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] SIP phones to Asterisk using MAC addressinsteadofIP address If you setup host=dynamic in sip.conf, then the registration does not depend on ip address. It depends on sip user name of sip URI. You need to provision sip user name inside each phone. Please bare in mind that it is different then sip authentication name.

Most DHCP servers will allow you to set a reservation of a paricular IP address to a particular MAC address. You may not be able to use this if you have more phones than available IP addresses of course. I couldn't see anything in http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+config+sip.conf that would help your cause directly.
