2 ; SIP Configuration example for Asterisk
5 ;-----------------------------------------------------------
6 ; In the dialplan (extensions.conf) you can use several
7 ; syntaxes for dialing SIP devices.
9 ; SIP/username@domain (SIP uri)
10 ; SIP/username[:password[:md5secret[:authname[:transport]]]]@host[:port]
11 ; SIP/devicename/extension
15 ; devicename is defined as a peer in a section below.
18 ; Call any SIP user on the Internet
19 ; (Don't forget to enable DNS SRV records if you want to use this)
21 ; devicename/extension
22 ; If you define a SIP proxy as a peer below, you may call
23 ; SIP/proxyhostname/user or SIP/user@proxyhostname
24 ; where the proxyhostname is defined in a section below
25 ; This syntax also works with ATA's with FXO ports
27 ; SIP/username[:password[:md5secret[:authname]]]@host[:port]
28 ; This form allows you to specify password or md5secret and authname
29 ; without altering any authentication data in config.
33 ; SIP/sales:topsecret::account02@domain.com:5062
34 ; SIP/12345678::bc53f0ba8ceb1ded2b70e05c3f91de4f:myname@192.168.0.1
36 ; All of these dial strings specify the SIP request URI.
37 ; In addition, you can specify a specific To: header by adding an
38 ; exclamation mark after the dial string, like
40 ; SIP/sales@mysipproxy!sales@edvina.net
43 ; -------------------------------------------------------------
44 ; Useful CLI commands to check peers/users:
45 ; sip show peers Show all SIP peers (including friends)
46 ; sip show registry Show status of hosts we register with
48 ; sip set debug Show all SIP messages
50 ; module reload chan_sip.so Reload configuration file
53 ; ** Deprecated configuration options **
54 ; The "call-limit" configuation option is deprecated. It still works in
55 ; this version of Asterisk, but will disappear in the next version.
56 ; You are encouraged to use the dialplan groupcount functionality
57 ; to enforce call limits instead of using this channel-specific method.
59 ; You can still set limits per device in sip.conf or in a database by using
60 ; "setvar" to set variables that can be used in the dialplan for various limits.
63 context=default ; Default context for incoming calls
64 ;allowguest=no ; Allow or reject guest calls (default is yes)
65 ;match_auth_username=yes ; if available, match user entry using the
66 ; 'username' field from the authentication line
67 ; instead of the From: field.
68 allowoverlap=no ; Disable overlap dialing support. (Default is yes)
69 ;allowtransfer=no ; Disable all transfers (unless enabled in peers or users)
71 ;realm=mydomain.tld ; Realm for digest authentication
72 ; defaults to "asterisk". If you set a system name in
73 ; asterisk.conf, it defaults to that system name
74 ; Realms MUST be globally unique according to RFC 3261
75 ; Set this to your host name or domain name
76 udpbindaddr=0.0.0.0 ; IP address to bind UDP listen socket to (0.0.0.0 binds to all)
77 ; Optionally add a port number, 192.168.1.1:5062 (default is port 5060)
80 ; Note that the TCP and TLS support for chan_sip is currently considered
81 ; experimental. Since it is new, all of the related configuration options are
82 ; subject to change in any release. If they are changed, the changes will
83 ; be reflected in this sample configuration file, as well as in the UPGRADE.txt file.
85 tcpenable=no ; Enable server for incoming TCP connections (default is no)
86 tcpbindaddr=0.0.0.0 ; IP address for TCP server to bind to (0.0.0.0 binds to all interfaces)
87 ; Optionally add a port number, 192.168.1.1:5062 (default is port 5060)
89 ;tlsenable=no ; Enable server for incoming TLS (secure) connections (default is no)
90 ;tlsbindaddr=0.0.0.0 ; IP address for TLS server to bind to (0.0.0.0) binds to all interfaces)
91 ; Optionally add a port number, 192.168.1.1:5063 (default is port 5061)
92 ; Remember that the IP address must match the common name (hostname) in the
93 ; certificate, so you don't want to bind a TLS socket to multiple IP addresses.
95 ;tlscertfile=asterisk.pem ; Certificate file (*.pem only) to use for TLS connections
96 ; default is to look for "asterisk.pem" in current directory
98 ;tlscafile=</path/to/certificate>
99 ; If the server your connecting to uses a self signed certificate
100 ; you should have their certificate installed here so the code can
101 ; verify the authenticity of their certificate.
103 ;tlscadir=</path/to/ca/dir>
104 ; A directory full of CA certificates. The files must be named with
105 ; the CA subject name hash value.
106 ; (see man SSL_CTX_load_verify_locations for more info)
108 ;tlsdontverifyserver=[yes|no]
109 ; If set to yes, don't verify the servers certificate when acting as
110 ; a client. If you don't have the server's CA certificate you can
111 ; set this and it will connect without requiring tlscafile to be set.
114 ;tlscipher=<SSL cipher string>
115 ; A string specifying which SSL ciphers to use or not use
116 ; A list of valid SSL cipher strings can be found at:
117 ; http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/ciphers.html#CIPHER_STRINGS
119 srvlookup=yes ; Enable DNS SRV lookups on outbound calls
120 ; Note: Asterisk only uses the first host
122 ; Disabling DNS SRV lookups disables the
123 ; ability to place SIP calls based on domain
124 ; names to some other SIP users on the Internet
126 ;pedantic=yes ; Enable checking of tags in headers,
127 ; international character conversions in URIs
128 ; and multiline formatted headers for strict
129 ; SIP compatibility (defaults to "no")
131 ; See qos.tex or Quality of Service section of asterisk.pdf for a description of these parameters.
132 ;tos_sip=cs3 ; Sets TOS for SIP packets.
133 ;tos_audio=ef ; Sets TOS for RTP audio packets.
134 ;tos_video=af41 ; Sets TOS for RTP video packets.
135 ;tos_text=af41 ; Sets TOS for RTP text packets.
137 ;cos_sip=3 ; Sets 802.1p priority for SIP packets.
138 ;cos_audio=5 ; Sets 802.1p priority for RTP audio packets.
139 ;cos_video=4 ; Sets 802.1p priority for RTP video packets.
140 ;cos_text=3 ; Sets 802.1p priority for RTP text packets.
142 ;maxexpiry=3600 ; Maximum allowed time of incoming registrations
143 ; and subscriptions (seconds)
144 ;minexpiry=60 ; Minimum length of registrations/subscriptions (default 60)
145 ;defaultexpiry=120 ; Default length of incoming/outgoing registration
146 ;mwiexpiry=3600 ; Expiry time for outgoing MWI subscriptions
147 ;qualifyfreq=60 ; Qualification: How often to check for the
148 ; host to be up in seconds
149 ; Set to low value if you use low timeout for
150 ; NAT of UDP sessions
151 ;notifymimetype=text/plain ; Allow overriding of mime type in MWI NOTIFY
152 ;buggymwi=no ; Cisco SIP firmware doesn't support the MWI RFC
153 ; fully. Enable this option to not get error messages
154 ; when sending MWI to phones with this bug.
155 ;vmexten=voicemail ; dialplan extension to reach mailbox sets the
156 ; Message-Account in the MWI notify message
157 ; defaults to "asterisk"
158 ;disallow=all ; First disallow all codecs
159 ;allow=ulaw ; Allow codecs in order of preference
160 ;allow=ilbc ; see doc/rtp-packetization for framing options
162 ; This option specifies a preference for which music on hold class this channel
163 ; should listen to when put on hold if the music class has not been set on the
164 ; channel with Set(CHANNEL(musicclass)=whatever) in the dialplan, and the peer
165 ; channel putting this one on hold did not suggest a music class.
167 ; This option may be specified globally, or on a per-user or per-peer basis.
169 ;mohinterpret=default
171 ; This option specifies which music on hold class to suggest to the peer channel
172 ; when this channel places the peer on hold. It may be specified globally or on
173 ; a per-user or per-peer basis.
177 ;parkinglot=plaza ; Sets the default parking lot for call parking
178 ; This may also be set for individual users/peers
179 ; Parkinglots are configured in features.conf
180 ;language=en ; Default language setting for all users/peers
181 ; This may also be set for individual users/peers
182 ;relaxdtmf=yes ; Relax dtmf handling
183 ;trustrpid = no ; If Remote-Party-ID should be trusted
184 ;sendrpid = yes ; If Remote-Party-ID should be sent
185 ;progressinband=never ; If we should generate in-band ringing always
186 ; use 'never' to never use in-band signalling, even in cases
187 ; where some buggy devices might not render it
188 ; Valid values: yes, no, never Default: never
189 ;useragent=Asterisk PBX ; Allows you to change the user agent string
190 ; The default user agent string also contains the Asterisk
191 ; version. If you don't want to expose this, change the
193 ;sdpsession=Asterisk PBX ; Allows you to change the SDP session name string, (s=)
194 ; Like the useragent parameter, the default user agent string
195 ; also contains the Asterisk version.
196 ;sdpowner=root ; Allows you to change the username field in the SDP owner string, (o=)
197 ; This field MUST NOT contain spaces
198 ;promiscredir = no ; If yes, allows 302 or REDIR to non-local SIP address
199 ; Note that promiscredir when redirects are made to the
200 ; local system will cause loops since Asterisk is incapable
201 ; of performing a "hairpin" call.
202 ;usereqphone = no ; If yes, ";user=phone" is added to uri that contains
203 ; a valid phone number
204 ;dtmfmode = rfc2833 ; Set default dtmfmode for sending DTMF. Default: rfc2833
206 ; info : SIP INFO messages (application/dtmf-relay)
207 ; shortinfo : SIP INFO messages (application/dtmf)
208 ; inband : Inband audio (requires 64 kbit codec -alaw, ulaw)
209 ; auto : Use rfc2833 if offered, inband otherwise
211 ;compactheaders = yes ; send compact sip headers.
213 ;videosupport=yes ; Turn on support for SIP video. You need to turn this
214 ; on in this section to get any video support at all.
215 ; You can turn it off on a per peer basis if the general
216 ; video support is enabled, but you can't enable it for
217 ; one peer only without enabling in the general section.
218 ; If you set videosupport to "always", then RTP ports will
219 ; always be set up for video, even on clients that don't
220 ; support it. This assists callfile-derived calls and
221 ; certain transferred calls to use always use video when
222 ; available. [yes|NO|always]
224 ;maxcallbitrate=384 ; Maximum bitrate for video calls (default 384 kb/s)
225 ; Videosupport and maxcallbitrate is settable
226 ; for peers and users as well
227 ;callevents=no ; generate manager events when sip ua
228 ; performs events (e.g. hold)
229 ;authfailureevents=no ; generate manager "peerstatus" events when peer can't
230 ; authenticate with Asterisk. Peerstatus will be "rejected".
231 ;alwaysauthreject = yes ; When an incoming INVITE or REGISTER is to be rejected,
232 ; for any reason, always reject with '401 Unauthorized'
233 ; instead of letting the requester know whether there was
234 ; a matching user or peer for their request
236 ;g726nonstandard = yes ; If the peer negotiates G726-32 audio, use AAL2 packing
237 ; order instead of RFC3551 packing order (this is required
238 ; for Sipura and Grandstream ATAs, among others). This is
239 ; contrary to the RFC3551 specification, the peer _should_
240 ; be negotiating AAL2-G726-32 instead :-(
241 ;outboundproxy=proxy.provider.domain ; send outbound signaling to this proxy, not directly to the devices
242 ;outboundproxy=proxy.provider.domain:8080 ; send outbound signaling to this proxy, not directly to the devices
243 ;outboundproxy=proxy.provider.domain,force ; Send ALL outbound signalling to proxy, ignoring route: headers
244 ;outboundproxy=tls://proxy.provider.domain ; same as '=proxy.provider.domain' except we try to connect with tls
245 ; ; (could also be tcp,udp) - defining transports on the proxy line only
246 ; ; applies for the global proxy, otherwise use the transport= option
247 ;matchexterniplocally = yes ; Only substitute the externip or externhost setting if it matches
248 ; your localnet setting. Unless you have some sort of strange network
249 ; setup you will not need to enable this.
251 ;dynamic_exclude_static = yes ; Disallow all dynamic hosts from registering
252 ; as any IP address used for staticly defined
253 ; hosts. This helps avoid the configuration
254 ; error of allowing your users to register at
255 ; the same address as a SIP provider.
257 ;contactdeny=0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 ; Use contactpermit and contactdeny to
258 ;contactpermit=172.16.0.0/255.255.0.0 ; restrict at what IPs your users may
259 ; register their phones.
262 ; If regcontext is specified, Asterisk will dynamically create and destroy a
263 ; NoOp priority 1 extension for a given peer who registers or unregisters with
264 ; us and have a "regexten=" configuration item.
265 ; Multiple contexts may be specified by separating them with '&'. The
266 ; actual extension is the 'regexten' parameter of the registering peer or its
267 ; name if 'regexten' is not provided. If more than one context is provided,
268 ; the context must be specified within regexten by appending the desired
269 ; context after '@'. More than one regexten may be supplied if they are
270 ; separated by '&'. Patterns may be used in regexten.
272 ;regcontext=sipregistrations
273 ;regextenonqualify=yes ; Default "no"
274 ; If you have qualify on and the peer becomes unreachable
275 ; this setting will enforce inactivation of the regexten
276 ; extension for the peer
278 ;--------------------------- SIP timers ----------------------------------------------------
279 ; These timers are used primarily in INVITE transactions.
280 ; The default for Timer T1 is 500 ms or the measured run-trip time between
281 ; Asterisk and the device if you have qualify=yes for the device.
283 ;t1min=100 ; Minimum roundtrip time for messages to monitored hosts
285 ;timert1=500 ; Default T1 timer
286 ; Defaults to 500 ms or the measured round-trip
287 ; time to a peer (qualify=yes).
288 ;timerb=32000 ; Call setup timer. If a provisional response is not received
289 ; in this amount of time, the call will autocongest
290 ; Defaults to 64*timert1
292 ;--------------------------- RTP timers ----------------------------------------------------
293 ; These timers are currently used for both audio and video streams. The RTP timeouts
294 ; are only applied to the audio channel.
295 ; The settings are settable in the global section as well as per device
297 ;rtptimeout=60 ; Terminate call if 60 seconds of no RTP or RTCP activity
298 ; on the audio channel
299 ; when we're not on hold. This is to be able to hangup
300 ; a call in the case of a phone disappearing from the net,
301 ; like a powerloss or grandma tripping over a cable.
302 ;rtpholdtimeout=300 ; Terminate call if 300 seconds of no RTP or RTCP activity
303 ; on the audio channel
304 ; when we're on hold (must be > rtptimeout)
305 ;rtpkeepalive=<secs> ; Send keepalives in the RTP stream to keep NAT open
306 ; (default is off - zero)
308 ;--------------------------- SIP Session-Timers (RFC 4028)------------------------------------
309 ; SIP Session-Timers provide an end-to-end keep-alive mechanism for active SIP sessions.
310 ; This mechanism can detect and reclaim SIP channels that do not terminate through normal
311 ; signaling procedures. Session-Timers can be configured globally or at a user/peer level.
312 ; The operation of Session-Timers is driven by the following configuration parameters:
314 ; * session-timers - Session-Timers feature operates in the following three modes:
315 ; originate : Request and run session-timers always
316 ; accept : Run session-timers only when requested by other UA
317 ; refuse : Do not run session timers in any case
318 ; The default mode of operation is 'accept'.
319 ; * session-expires - Maximum session refresh interval in seconds. Defaults to 1800 secs.
320 ; * session-minse - Minimum session refresh interval in seconds. Defualts to 90 secs.
321 ; * session-refresher - The session refresher (uac|uas). Defaults to 'uas'.
323 ;session-timers=originate
326 ;session-refresher=uas
328 ;--------------------------- HASH TABLE SIZES ------------------------------------------------
329 ; For maximum efficiency, adjust the following
330 ; values to be slightly larger than the maximum number of in-memory objects (devices).
331 ; Too large, and space is wasted. Too small, and things will run slower.
332 ; 563 is probably way too big for small (home) applications, but it
333 ; should cover most small/medium sites.
334 ; It is recommended to make the sizes be a prime number!
335 ; This was internally set to 17 for small-memory applications...
336 ; All tables default to 563, except when compiled in LOW_MEMORY mode,
337 ; in which case, they default to 17. You can override this by uncommenting
338 ; the following, and changing the values.
343 ;--------------------------- SIP DEBUGGING ---------------------------------------------------
344 ;sipdebug = yes ; Turn on SIP debugging by default, from
345 ; the moment the channel loads this configuration
346 ;recordhistory=yes ; Record SIP history by default
347 ; (see sip history / sip no history)
348 ;dumphistory=yes ; Dump SIP history at end of SIP dialogue
349 ; SIP history is output to the DEBUG logging channel
352 ;--------------------------- STATUS NOTIFICATIONS (SUBSCRIPTIONS) ----------------------------
353 ; You can subscribe to the status of extensions with a "hint" priority
354 ; (See extensions.conf.sample for examples)
355 ; chan_sip support two major formats for notifications: dialog-info and SIMPLE
357 ; You will get more detailed reports (busy etc) if you have a call counter enabled
360 ; If you set the busylevel, we will indicate busy when we have a number of calls that
361 ; matches the busylevel treshold.
363 ; For queues, you will need this level of detail in status reporting, regardless
364 ; if you use SIP subscriptions. Queues and manager use the same internal interface
365 ; for reading status information.
367 ; Note: Subscriptions does not work if you have a realtime dialplan and use the
370 ;allowsubscribe=no ; Disable support for subscriptions. (Default is yes)
371 ;subscribecontext = default ; Set a specific context for SUBSCRIBE requests
372 ; Useful to limit subscriptions to local extensions
373 ; Settable per peer/user also
374 ;notifyringing = no ; Control whether subscriptions already INUSE get sent
375 ; RINGING when another call is sent (default: yes)
376 ;notifyhold = yes ; Notify subscriptions on HOLD state (default: no)
377 ; Turning on notifyringing and notifyhold will add a lot
378 ; more database transactions if you are using realtime.
379 ;notifycid = yes ; Control whether caller ID information is sent along with
380 ; dialog-info+xml notifications (supported by snom phones).
381 ; Note that this feature will only work properly when the
382 ; incoming call is using the same extension and context that
383 ; is being used as the hint for the called extension. This means
384 ; that it won't work when using subscribecontext for your sip
385 ; user or peer (if subscribecontext is different than context).
386 ; This is also limited to a single caller, meaning that if an
387 ; extension is ringing because multiple calls are incoming,
388 ; only one will be used as the source of caller ID. Specify
389 ; 'ignore-context' to ignore the called context when looking
390 ; for the caller's channel. The default value is 'no.'
391 ;callcounter = yes ; Enable call counters on devices. This can be set per
394 ;----------------------------------------- T.38 FAX PASSTHROUGH SUPPORT -----------------------
396 ; This setting is available in the [general] section as well as in device configurations.
397 ; Setting this to yes, enables T.38 fax (UDPTL) passthrough on SIP to SIP calls, provided
398 ; both parties have T38 support enabled in their Asterisk configuration
399 ; This has to be enabled in the general section for all devices to work. You can then
400 ; disable it on a per device basis.
402 ; T.38 faxing only works in SIP to SIP calls, with no local or agent channel being used.
404 ; t38pt_udptl = yes ; Default false
406 ; Fax Detect will cause the SIP channel to jump to the 'fax' extension (if it exists)
407 ; after T.38 is successfully negotiated.
409 ; faxdetect = yes ; Default false
411 ;----------------------------------------- OUTBOUND SIP REGISTRATIONS ------------------------
412 ; Asterisk can register as a SIP user agent to a SIP proxy (provider)
413 ; Format for the register statement is:
414 ; register => [transport://]user[:secret[:authuser]]@host[:port][/extension][~expiry]
418 ; If no extension is given, the 's' extension is used. The extension needs to
419 ; be defined in extensions.conf to be able to accept calls from this SIP proxy
422 ; host is either a host name defined in DNS or the name of a section defined
425 ; A similar effect can be achieved by adding a "callbackextension" option in a peer section.
426 ; this is equivalent to having the following line in the general section:
428 ; register => username:secret@host/callbackextension
430 ; and more readable because you don't have to write the parameters in two places
431 ; (note that the "port" is ignored - this is a bug that should be fixed).
435 ;register => 1234:password@mysipprovider.com
437 ; This will pass incoming calls to the 's' extension
440 ;register => 2345:password@sip_proxy/1234
442 ; Register 2345 at sip provider 'sip_proxy'. Calls from this provider
443 ; connect to local extension 1234 in extensions.conf, default context,
444 ; unless you configure a [sip_proxy] section below, and configure a
446 ; Tip 1: Avoid assigning hostname to a sip.conf section like [provider.com]
447 ; Tip 2: Use separate inbound and outbound sections for SIP providers
448 ; (instead of type=friend) if you have calls in both directions
450 ;registertimeout=20 ; retry registration calls every 20 seconds (default)
451 ;registerattempts=10 ; Number of registration attempts before we give up
452 ; 0 = continue forever, hammering the other server
453 ; until it accepts the registration
454 ; Default is 0 tries, continue forever
455 ;----------------------------------------- OUTBOUND MWI SUBSCRIPTIONS -------------------------
456 ; Asterisk can subscribe to receive the MWI from another SIP server and store it locally for retrieval
458 ; Format for the mwi register statement is:
459 ; mwi => user[:secret[:authuser]]@host[:port][/mailbox]
462 ;mwi => 1234:password@mysipprovider.com/1234
464 ; MWI received will be stored in the 1234 mailbox of the SIP_Remote context. It can be used by other phones by following the below:
465 ; mailbox=1234@SIP_Remote
466 ;----------------------------------------- NAT SUPPORT ------------------------
468 ; WARNING: SIP operation behind a NAT is tricky and you really need
469 ; to read and understand well the following section.
471 ; When Asterisk is behind a NAT device, the "local" address (and port) that
472 ; a socket is bound to has different values when seen from the inside or
473 ; from the outside of the NATted network. Unfortunately this address must
474 ; be communicated to the outside (e.g. in SIP and SDP messages), and in
475 ; order to determine the correct value Asterisk needs to know:
477 ; + whether it is talking to someone "inside" or "outside" of the NATted network.
478 ; This is configured by assigning the "localnet" parameter with a list
479 ; of network addresses that are considered "inside" of the NATted network.
480 ; IF LOCALNET IS NOT SET, THE EXTERNAL ADDRESS WILL NOT BE SET CORRECTLY.
481 ; Multiple entries are allowed, e.g. a reasonable set is the following:
483 ; localnet=192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0 ; RFC 1918 addresses
484 ; localnet=10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 ; Also RFC1918
485 ; localnet=172.16.0.0/12 ; Another RFC1918 with CIDR notation
486 ; localnet=169.254.0.0/255.255.0.0 ; Zero conf local network
488 ; + the "externally visible" address and port number to be used when talking
489 ; to a host outside the NAT. This information is derived by one of the
490 ; following (mutually exclusive) config file parameters:
492 ; a. "externip = hostname[:port]" specifies a static address[:port] to
493 ; be used in SIP and SDP messages.
494 ; The hostname is looked up only once, when [re]loading sip.conf .
495 ; If a port number is not present, use the "bindport" value (which is
496 ; not guaranteed to work correctly, because a NAT box might remap the
497 ; port number as well as the address).
498 ; This approach can be useful if you have a NAT device where you can
499 ; configure the mapping statically. Examples:
501 ; externip = 12.34.56.78 ; use this address.
502 ; externip = 12.34.56.78:9900 ; use this address and port.
503 ; externip = mynat.my.org:12600 ; Public address of my nat box.
505 ; b. "externhost = hostname[:port]" is similar to "externip" except
506 ; that the hostname is looked up every "externrefresh" seconds
507 ; (default 10s). This can be useful when your NAT device lets you choose
508 ; the port mapping, but the IP address is dynamic.
509 ; Beware, you might suffer from service disruption when the name server
510 ; resolution fails. Examples:
512 ; externhost=foo.dyndns.net ; refreshed periodically
513 ; externrefresh=180 ; change the refresh interval
515 ; c. "stunaddr = stun.server[:port]" queries the STUN server specified
516 ; as an argument to obtain the external address/port.
517 ; Queries are also sent periodically every "externrefresh" seconds
518 ; (as a side effect, sending the query also acts as a keepalive for
519 ; the state entry on the nat box):
521 ; stunaddr = foo.stun.com:3478
524 ; Note that at the moment all these mechanism work only for the SIP socket.
525 ; The IP address discovered with externip/externhost/STUN is reused for
526 ; media sessions as well, but the port numbers are not remapped so you
527 ; may still experience problems.
529 ; NOTE 1: in some cases, NAT boxes will use different port numbers in
530 ; the internal<->external mapping. In these cases, the "externip" and
531 ; "externhost" might not help you configure addresses properly, and you
532 ; really need to use STUN.
534 ; NOTE 2: when using "externip" or "externhost", the address part is
535 ; also used as the external address for media sessions.
536 ; If you use "stunaddr", STUN queries will be sent to the same server
537 ; also from media sockets, and this should permit a correct mapping of
538 ; the port numbers as well.
540 ; In addition to the above, Asterisk has an additional "nat" parameter to
541 ; address NAT-related issues in incoming SIP or media sessions.
542 ; In particular, depending on the 'nat= ' settings described below, Asterisk
543 ; may override the address/port information specified in the SIP/SDP messages,
544 ; and use the information (sender address) supplied by the network stack instead.
545 ; However, this is only useful if the external traffic can reach us.
546 ; The following settings are allowed (both globally and in individual sections):
548 ; nat = no ; default. Use NAT mode only according to RFC3581 (;rport)
549 ; nat = yes ; Always ignore info and assume NAT
550 ; nat = never ; Never attempt NAT mode or RFC3581 support
551 ; nat = route ; route = Assume NAT, don't send rport
552 ; ; (work around more UNIDEN bugs)
554 ;----------------------------------- MEDIA HANDLING --------------------------------
555 ; By default, Asterisk tries to re-invite the audio to an optimal path. If there's
556 ; no reason for Asterisk to stay in the media path, the media will be redirected.
557 ; This does not really work with in the case where Asterisk is outside and have
558 ; clients on the inside of a NAT. In that case, you want to set canreinvite=nonat
560 ;canreinvite=yes ; Asterisk by default tries to redirect the
561 ; RTP media stream (audio) to go directly from
562 ; the caller to the callee. Some devices do not
563 ; support this (especially if one of them is behind a NAT).
564 ; The default setting is YES. If you have all clients
565 ; behind a NAT, or for some other reason wants Asterisk to
566 ; stay in the audio path, you may want to turn this off.
568 ; This setting also affect direct RTP
569 ; at call setup (a new feature in 1.4 - setting up the
570 ; call directly between the endpoints instead of sending
573 ;directrtpsetup=yes ; Enable the new experimental direct RTP setup. This sets up
574 ; the call directly with media peer-2-peer without re-invites.
575 ; Will not work for video and cases where the callee sends
576 ; RTP payloads and fmtp headers in the 200 OK that does not match the
577 ; callers INVITE. This will also fail if canreinvite is enabled when
578 ; the device is actually behind NAT.
580 ;canreinvite=nonat ; An additional option is to allow media path redirection
581 ; (reinvite) but only when the peer where the media is being
582 ; sent is known to not be behind a NAT (as the RTP core can
583 ; determine it based on the apparent IP address the media
586 ;canreinvite=update ; Yet a third option... use UPDATE for media path redirection,
587 ; instead of INVITE. This can be combined with 'nonat', as
588 ; 'canreinvite=update,nonat'. It implies 'yes'.
590 ;----------------------------------------- REALTIME SUPPORT ------------------------
591 ; For additional information on ARA, the Asterisk Realtime Architecture,
592 ; please read realtime.txt and extconfig.txt in the /doc directory of the
595 ;rtcachefriends=yes ; Cache realtime friends by adding them to the internal list
596 ; just like friends added from the config file only on a
597 ; as-needed basis? (yes|no)
599 ;rtsavesysname=yes ; Save systemname in realtime database at registration
602 ;rtupdate=yes ; Send registry updates to database using realtime? (yes|no)
603 ; If set to yes, when a SIP UA registers successfully, the ip address,
604 ; the origination port, the registration period, and the username of
605 ; the UA will be set to database via realtime.
606 ; If not present, defaults to 'yes'. Note: realtime peers will
607 ; probably not function across reloads in the way that you expect, if
608 ; you turn this option off.
609 ;rtautoclear=yes ; Auto-Expire friends created on the fly on the same schedule
610 ; as if it had just registered? (yes|no|<seconds>)
611 ; If set to yes, when the registration expires, the friend will
612 ; vanish from the configuration until requested again. If set
613 ; to an integer, friends expire within this number of seconds
614 ; instead of the registration interval.
616 ;ignoreregexpire=yes ; Enabling this setting has two functions:
618 ; For non-realtime peers, when their registration expires, the
619 ; information will _not_ be removed from memory or the Asterisk database
620 ; if you attempt to place a call to the peer, the existing information
621 ; will be used in spite of it having expired
623 ; For realtime peers, when the peer is retrieved from realtime storage,
624 ; the registration information will be used regardless of whether
625 ; it has expired or not; if it expires while the realtime peer
626 ; is still in memory (due to caching or other reasons), the
627 ; information will not be removed from realtime storage
629 ;----------------------------------------- SIP DOMAIN SUPPORT ------------------------
630 ; Incoming INVITE and REFER messages can be matched against a list of 'allowed'
631 ; domains, each of which can direct the call to a specific context if desired.
632 ; By default, all domains are accepted and sent to the default context or the
633 ; context associated with the user/peer placing the call.
634 ; REGISTER to non-local domains will be automatically denied if a domain
635 ; list is configured.
637 ; Domains can be specified using:
638 ; domain=<domain>[,<context>]
640 ; domain=myasterisk.dom
641 ; domain=customer.com,customer-context
643 ; In addition, all the 'default' domains associated with a server should be
644 ; added if incoming request filtering is desired.
647 ; To disallow requests for domains not serviced by this server:
648 ; allowexternaldomains=no
650 ;domain=mydomain.tld,mydomain-incoming
651 ; Add domain and configure incoming context
652 ; for external calls to this domain
653 ;domain=1.2.3.4 ; Add IP address as local domain
654 ; You can have several "domain" settings
655 ;allowexternaldomains=no ; Disable INVITE and REFER to non-local domains
657 ;autodomain=yes ; Turn this on to have Asterisk add local host
658 ; name and local IP to domain list.
660 ; fromdomain=mydomain.tld ; When making outbound SIP INVITEs to
661 ; non-peers, use your primary domain "identity"
662 ; for From: headers instead of just your IP
663 ; address. This is to be polite and
664 ; it may be a mandatory requirement for some
665 ; destinations which do not have a prior
666 ; account relationship with your server.
668 ;------------------------------ JITTER BUFFER CONFIGURATION --------------------------
669 ; jbenable = yes ; Enables the use of a jitterbuffer on the receiving side of a
670 ; SIP channel. Defaults to "no". An enabled jitterbuffer will
671 ; be used only if the sending side can create and the receiving
672 ; side can not accept jitter. The SIP channel can accept jitter,
673 ; thus a jitterbuffer on the receive SIP side will be used only
674 ; if it is forced and enabled.
676 ; jbforce = no ; Forces the use of a jitterbuffer on the receive side of a SIP
677 ; channel. Defaults to "no".
679 ; jbmaxsize = 200 ; Max length of the jitterbuffer in milliseconds.
681 ; jbresyncthreshold = 1000 ; Jump in the frame timestamps over which the jitterbuffer is
682 ; resynchronized. Useful to improve the quality of the voice, with
683 ; big jumps in/broken timestamps, usually sent from exotic devices
684 ; and programs. Defaults to 1000.
686 ; jbimpl = fixed ; Jitterbuffer implementation, used on the receiving side of a SIP
687 ; channel. Two implementations are currently available - "fixed"
688 ; (with size always equals to jbmaxsize) and "adaptive" (with
689 ; variable size, actually the new jb of IAX2). Defaults to fixed.
691 ; jblog = no ; Enables jitterbuffer frame logging. Defaults to "no".
692 ;-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
695 ; Global credentials for outbound calls, i.e. when a proxy challenges your
696 ; Asterisk server for authentication. These credentials override
697 ; any credentials in peer/register definition if realm is matched.
699 ; This way, Asterisk can authenticate for outbound calls to other
700 ; realms. We match realm on the proxy challenge and pick an set of
701 ; credentials from this list
703 ; auth = <user>:<secret>@<realm>
704 ; auth = <user>#<md5secret>@<realm>
706 ;auth=mark:topsecret@digium.com
708 ; You may also add auth= statements to [peer] definitions
709 ; Peer auth= override all other authentication settings if we match on realm
711 ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
712 ; DEVICE CONFIGURATION
714 ; The SIP channel has two types of devices, the friend and the peer.
715 ; * The type=friend is a device type that accepts both incoming and outbound calls,
716 ; where Asterisk match on the From: username on incoming calls.
717 ; (A synonym for friend is "user"). This is a type you use for your local
719 ; * The type=peer also handles both incoming and outbound calls. On inbound calls,
720 ; Asterisk only matches on IP/port, not on names. This is mostly used for SIP
723 ; For device names, we recommend using only a-z, numerics (0-9) and underscore
725 ; For local phones, type=friend works most of the time
727 ; If you have one-way audio, you probably have NAT problems.
728 ; If Asterisk is on a public IP, and the phone is inside of a NAT device
729 ; you will need to configure nat option for those phones.
730 ; Also, turn on qualify=yes to keep the nat session open
732 ; Configuration options available
733 ; --------------------
794 ; contactpermit ; Limit what a host may register as (a neat trick

833 ; ; accept both tcp and udp. Default is udp. The first transport
834 ; ; listed will always be used for outgoing connections.
837 ; Because you might have a large number of similar sections, it is generally
838 ; convenient to use templates for the common parameters, and add them
839 ; the the various sections. Examples are below, and we can even leave
840 ; the templates uncommented as they will not harm:
842 [basic-options](!) ; a template
847 [natted-phone](!,basic-options) ; another template inheriting basic-options
852 [public-phone](!,basic-options) ; another template inheriting basic-options
856 [my-codecs](!) ; a template for my preferred codecs
864 [ulaw-phone](!) ; and another one for ulaw-only
