I am trying to configure a Valcom VIP-201A SIP Paging Server for our FreePBX Distro system. I am having trouble getting the configuration correct so that the VIP-201A is registered to the PBX and is "Reachable". Here is where I am:
- Valcom VIP-201A does not like long SIP passwords. I have used a shorter password and now I can get it to register.
- When I issue a "sip show peers" at the asterisk command line, the device always says "UNREACHABLE".
- After some period of time, the device no longer receives incoming calls and therefore, no paging through the Valcom device is available.
I have tried to use both chan_sip and chan_pjsip, with the same basic results. I just can't seem to find a configuration that works. In the Valcom VIP-102B IP Solutions Setup Tool, I have the SIP configuration set this way:
- SIP Mode: Station
- Phone Number: 1234 (The extension number)
- Description: blank
- Authentication Name: 1234 (The extension number)
- Secret: abcd1234ab12 (alpha-numeric password, no special characters, 12 letters and numbers)
- Realm: blank
- SIP Servers:
- Primary: 192.168.1.200 (PBX IP), Port 5061 (chan_sip port)
- Backup 1, 2 , 3: blank
- Register: Checked
- DNS SRV: Not Checked
- Outbound Proxy: blank
- Outbound Port: 5060 (didn't change it since I'm not using a proxy)
- SIP Port: 5061 (chan_sip port)
- Idle Timeout (secs): 0
- RTP Port: 20000
- Max Call Timer (secs): 0
- Night Ring: Not Checked
- Pre-Announce Tone: Checked
- Store and Play: Not Checked
Other settings that may be of interest:
- Continuous Beacon: Checked
- Audio Output Volume: -15
I appreciate any feedback anyone can provide!
