Iax2 trunk. One server can dial others ext, the other can't. Need some help.
Submitted by garyv on Fri, 05/29/2009 - 12:54pm.
I have an iax2 trunk between to trixbox servers. Server A is our main server and has a PRI attached. Server B is a remote office.
Right now, from Server B, I can dial Server A’s ext and they ring through. I can also place outgoing calls through Server A, when dialing from Server B. However I can’t dial Server B’s ext from Server A. I get your call can’t be completed as dialed. I’ve all my hair out trying to get this to work.
Server A has the outbound route set to the iax2 trunk with dial rule 83xx. 83xx is the ext on Server B.
Anyone think of something I have not tried. I just don’t get how one side can work perfect and the other not.
Thank you for your time and help.
Gary V.
 
You need to post your trunk

You really do need to help us help you, however I'm going to hazard a guess that the INBOUND Context of Server-B's Trunk settings is incorrect. On my IAX2 tie-trunk the Inbound Context of my "server-b" is "from-trunk".
Tnx
 
I copy and paste the below

I copy and paste the below settings and change the IPs and users as needed. The only thing I can think might be wrong, on server a i have custom contexts. the main context for office phones is Officephones. I have other contexts that are more restrictive. Would I need to change, under peer details, the context to Officephones or leave it from-internal? what is the difference between from-internal and from-trunk?
Peer Details:
disallow=all
allow=gsm
jitterbuffer=yes
trunktimestamps=yes
trunk=yes
context=from-internal
host=IP
qualify=yes
secret=1234
type=peer
username=trixbox3user
auth=md5
encryption=aes128
User Context:
trixbox1user
User Details:
context=from-internal
host=IP
secret=1234
type=user

From-internal - tells Asterisk to look in the from-internal context, which normally contains all your local extensions
from-trunk - generally looks at DID's
My trunk:
Outgoing Settings
username=username
type=peer
secret=secret
host=IP
disallow=all
allow=g729&g723&g722&alaw&ulaw
qualify=yes
Incoming:
Usercontext - Context
type=user
secret=secret
disallow=all
allow=g729&alaw&ulaw&g723
context=from-trunk
As all of my extensions have their number as a DID, it works..
From the CLI issue an iax2 set debug to see what is happening when you try to make a call..
