Use Another Asterisk Server for Outbound Calling

[asmith]

Hello Experts,

I am new to Vicidial and I seek your advise. Here is my Setup

Agents -------- GO AutoDial (2.1) -------- Asterisk Server 2 -------- SIP Provider

I want to enable agents to be able to use Asterisk Server 2 for outbound calls.

This is what I have done so far.

1. Created an extension 5000 on Asterisk Server 2 just like other SIP extensions.
2. Configured following settings on GO Autodial Carrier

register => 5000:MyPassword@X.X.X.X:5060/5000

where X.X.X.X is my public IP

[Server 2]
disallow=all
allow=ulaw
host=Public IP
type=peer
context=from-internal
secret=MyPassword
insecure=port,invite

exten => _1XXXXXXXXXX,1,AGI(agi://127.0.0.1:4577/call_log)
exten => _1XXXXXXXXXX,2,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN}@Server 2,,tTo)
exten => _1XXXXXXXXXX,3,Hangup


My sip show registry show Go Autodial has my trunk successfully registered.
My sip show peers at Server 2 show my Go Auto Dial as successfully registered peer.

But When I dial out I get this error

[Dec 24 23:16:29] -- Executing [13164619284@default:1] AGI("SIP/8001-0000001a", "agi://127.0.0.1:4577/call_log") in new stack

[Dec 24 23:16:29] -- AGI Script agi://127.0.0.1:4577/call_log--HVcauses ... ---------- completed, returning 0


All I want is to use my Asterisk Server 2 for outgoing calls for Agents connected with GO Autodial , no incoming or no internal dialing.

Please Advise.

Registration is a useful tool for showing a server where (which IP) to send calls when your server is dynamically assigned an ip address or when you may have multiple accounts at the same IP address. But when your server has a static IP and a single account, registration is not actually necessary.

Also, when you actually make a call, the registration is not used: the account entry is used. Which requires that the user and password both be incuded in the account entry (you missed the user ... so you did not successfully authenticate, this information is not shared with a registration!).

So you can switch to IP authentication at both ends or be certain that the password authentication is not mssng any pieces.
