[App_rpt-users] How to prevent incoming connections

[Jamison Judge]

Hey Matt,

 

There are a couple of different ways I can think of to temporarily disable
incoming connections. There's a dtmf function cop,12 (and an lnkdis control
state) that apparently disables user linking functions. Now I've never used
those before, so I'm not sure if it disables all linking (incoming and
outgoing) or just disables the local outgoing link commands. I'm sure the
devs could shed a little more light on that subject, but hey, why not give
it a shot?

 

Another real quick and easy way would be to comment out the entire [radio]
section in /etc/asterisk/iax.conf. This would literally make asterisk stop
listening for incoming connections. You could make a quick little shell
script that renames files to switch between two iax.conf files, your
original one and one with that section commented out, and even run it on an
automatic schedule if you wanted.

 

Let me know if you wanna know more about that,

Jamison

Hi,

 

When I play the GB2RS news and ARnewsline audio files over my node, the
playback is killed off by an incoming connection.

 

How can I prevent an incoming connection during this time?

 

I thought I could disable the node but of course this kills the Tx
completely!

 

Didnt want to do anything as drastic as take down ETH0 if I could help it as
the node is on a remote hilltop.

 

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Matt
