Alternate port to 4569

AllStarLink
1

Hello,

  This may be a simple question. In iax.conf, it indicates the

default UDP port to bind to (4569). Is it possible to use an
alternate port other than 4569 and make change here?

  In some other post they mention to change configuration on allstar

server network settings, but I don’t believe that has anything to
do other than to download that configuration to the server if
requested by me.

  I know port forwarding needs to change in router and asterisk

restarted.

  Thanks.

You can use alternate ports for IAX.
I’m using 4568, since 4569 is already occupied by another Asterisk switch.

You have to be careful of the order of the bind port and bind address in iax.conf and I think you have to call them both out if you are not using the default port. This is what’s working in my iax.conf:

. . .

[general]

bindport=4568

bindaddr=0.0.0.0

. . .

You also have to call out the port number in the server configuration → (your server ID) → network configuration of the portal.

This is how the other nodes find out they need to connect to you on your alternate port number.

Great! This is helpful. That way I can test out 2 servers connected to the same IP address before I ship to alternate site.

Thanks!
