Asterisk working, almost…
Hmmm, after a little poking with Asterisk this afternoon, I finally managed to get my Cisco 7960G IP Phone to play nicely with Asterisk. I can now make outgoing calls using my Blue Face account.
Incoming calls are another matter. They appear to reach my Asterisk server, then die after 1 ring, which makes me suspect I’ve a kink in my Asterisk config which isn’t “patching” incoming calls to my phone. :-/
Since I’ve probably spent a bit too much time poking Asterisk over the last few days, since I have a number of other things to be doing instead. So, I’ve given up and consulted the Blue Face support guys themselves to try and work out where the problem is.
Once I get it sorted, I plan on posting my sip.conf and extensions.conf configs online to try and assist others trying to set the same thing, even though my configs are mainly based on Martin List-Petersen’s SIP proxy config, with some details taken from Blue Face’s Asterisk Setup Guide.
