SIP trunk settings


These trunk settings work for Asterisk and similar platforms. It's a very basic configuration for use with the IVY or Dashboard platforms. These can be entered in the Outbound Settings of your Asterisk GUI, or in your sip.conf file.


By virtue of the "type=friend" these settings should work for both inbound and outbound calls. A link is provided below to download an example sip.conf.


; Explicitly disallow all codecs.
disallow=all
; Allow only PCMU codec.
allow=ulaw
; Handle calls with this context.
context=from-pstn
; Enables inbound and outbound calls.
type=friend
; Allows inbound calls from provider.
insecure=invite
; Sets DTMF mode to best compatibility.
dtmfmode=rfc2833  

; Authentication settings
username=[your device or SIP trunk login]
secret=[the password associated with the same]
host=[your IVY Site DNS name or Teliax Dashboard proxy]
fromdomain=[your IVY Site DNS name] (This is required for IVY sites)

Registration string


To send registration for inbound calls, you'll want to set your registration string.


username:password@ivy-dns-name/username

In an Asterisk sip.conf, you'd set a registration string like this:


register => username:password@ivy-dns-name/username

Dashboard customers would need to use their Dashboard proxy (like den.teliax.net) in place of their ivy-dns-name.


The fine print


These settings are provided as a courtesy. Teliax makes no guarantee that these particular settings will work for you. While most Asterisk-based systems are very similar, each installation has its own quirks and each Asterisk administrator might have their own way of doing things. We encourage you to learn as much as possible about your Asterisk installation and to customize it to your needs.


If configuring your Asterisk installation has you going in circles, consider contacting Teliax to learn more about our Hosted PBX platform, IVY.
