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?
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? 73 Doug
