asterisk users - Aug 2006 - how to enable REACHABLE/UNREACHABLE messages in logs

Hello.

I'm trying to evaluate my path to several voip providers, so I set
qualify=400 in iax.conf.  But, I'm not seeing any
REACHABLE/UNREACHABLE or LAG messages in the logs.  Is there a logging
option to set so these will show up?  Also, how often does asterisk do
a qualify check.

Thanks,
Cliff

these messages are logged with verbosity LOG_NOTICE, so, in the
configuration file logger.conf you must put the "notice" log level.
ie.

console => notice,verbose,etc
somefile => notice,verbose,etc...

read the comments in logger.conf for more information.

that exactly what the qualify option does, specify the frequency in
milliseconds to check the peer. If you are using a qualify=400, that
is, each 400 milliseconds. I suggest to use values of 5 to 10 seconds.

I have had Asterisk 1.2.10 up and running for the past two months.  I
have not done anything to the system in the last month.  

I am using broadvoice.com as a sip provider.  Yesterday everything was
working fine and now when I call out or receive calls I cannot hear the
person on the other line, however they can hear me just fine.  When I
call internally to another extension both parties can hear eachother.
This only seems to be happening when I dial out.  

Additionally I setup a soft phone (X-Lite) and connected directly to the
broadvoice.com sip server and I was able to communicate perfectly.  

Any Ideas?

Thanks,
Dennis
