issue, the Asterisk server in my organization has been dropping RTP
packets between the asterisk server process and the network interface.
I determined this from an RTP debug that showed packets sent to the
phone and packets received from the phone during the entire call. A
tcpdump done on the server for the interface that would deliver the
packet to the wire does not show the packets.
Is there somewhere I can look to resolve this? Something anybody has
come across? It is happening frequently and with great discomfort to
many users.
I had upgraded from 1.2.x to latest 1.4.x in attempts to resolve this.
I also disabled a lot of COM/LPT and USB devices in the BIOS to free
up some IRQ's. no devices are sharing IRQ's at this point, with I
thought might have been part of the issue, but has proved to at least
not be directly related.
These calls are from a PRI to a Cisco 7940 using SIP. There is a
Juniper EX switch between the two. Both sides negotiate at
100Mbps/Full Duplex.
I have ruled the switch out of the problem as it's not seeing the
packets on the wire when the issue is occuring.
Please help or point me to someone that can.
