asterisk users - Oct 2009 - inquire if SIP connections are active or not

Is there a way to ask asterisk from a shell script if its connection (SIP)
is valid to another system. Lets say for example to cisco call manager?

Thanks,

Jerry

You could validate whether it has a physical connection I believe. Add
qualify=yes in the sip definition and use something like:

/usr/sbin/asterisk -rx "sip show peer XXXX" | grep
"UNREACHABLE" | wc -l

Where XXXX is the name of the sip definition on your system. If the
return is 0 then all is well, if the return is 1 then you have a
connection issue. Not sure how to do any other type of validation, but
no doubt it's possible.
