Hello,
We’ve got an IAX2 link between 2 offices, works great for the most part…
except that after a certain time… (seems random) one of the servers will say that the other is unreachable, it’s always server B… server A has never had a problem reaching the other one…
The only thing that seems to be some sort of “remedy” so far is restarting asterisk… which of course is not the way…
Server B! why can’t you be more like your brother!
– the configuration of both servers seems to be identical
qualify=yes ?
yes.
I found a post on the asterisk forums…
http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=5912
but I’m not sure if it has been fixed or not, and don’t quite understand how to fix it myself.
has nobody had this issue? the asterisk forums states that it’s a pretty common bug, but I couldn’t find a resolution.
I had this problem, but the following trunk settings fixed it:
