Just a note that reloading iax will also restart the registration.

iax2 reload

Not sure about the loss of connection. The registration is done by domain name so you need to have DNS working. When the connection fails that does also. Maybe it does not come back right away?

Subject: [App_rpt-users] iax2 Registry Revisted - Question

Further info and clarification

I am using the Xipar Asterisk release. If I loose WAN network connection, I loose my iax registration which is what I would expect.

Note, this loss usually is a result of a cable modem resetting, or some other issues with the cable company and it does not happen frequently. This reset does not result in a new IP address being assigned.

I noticed that the State toggles between Timeout and Request Sent, but never will get re-registered until I stop and start asterisk (amportal stop/start).

My questions is, Is this normal behavior? should I need to restart asterisk?

I am using the following script in cron to check the status and reboot if necessary:

#!/bin/bash

#
# IAX Registration Check, Nofity if offline.

# if offline, then allstar will be unavailable

# check iax2 registration:

IAX_REG=`asterisk -r -x "iax2 show registry" | awk '{ print $6 }' | grep -v State`
IAX_REG1=`echo $IAX_REG | awk '{ print $1 }'`

IAX_REG2=`echo $IAX_REG | awk '{ print $2 }'`

if [ "$IAX_REG1" != "Registered" ] || [ "$IAX_REG2" != "Registered" ]; then
echo "Not Registered, take action..."

amportal stop
sleep 120

service portreserve restart
amportal start

else
echo " All is good..."

fi

This will get iax to register, but I would think there is some thing wrong with asterisk not being able to re-register without a restart/reboot. Or is this normal behavior?

Thanks,

73, Chris w0anm
