Hi all, pretty new to this, but reasonably familiar with networking / ports / forwarding / etc.
Here's the problem, and here's what I've tried, found out, discovered etc.
Running latest (demo) versions of Axon, Voicemail and Music-on-Hold (or whatever they're called!!)
No hardware - just a NAT / uPnP router, a couple of SIP registrations with local numbers, and a few
extensions (IP phones, and softphones).
Calls INTO the PBX on my SIP line, and calls FROM the PBX over my SIP line are functioning
mostly as they should - two-way audio, conversations, little lag - a perfectly usable system with
the hunt groups, extension assignment etc, working fine. However, the Voicemail / Music-on-Hold
systems do NOT send any audio out over the SIP line. (audio is received and recorded on voicemail)
However, using IP phones (etc), everything works exactly as it should, including both VMB and MoH,
and the really strange thing, this works either side of my router (indeed, either side of the world - I
got a friend in the USA (I'm in UK) to set up an extension on my PBX and we talked, and played VMB
and MoH by dialing their respective extensions).
I know I've set this up once before as proof-of-concept, and everything worked fine. It seems that
the RTP packets are seemingly disappearing before, or when they get to my SIP Provider or something.
I haven't run ethereal or anything yet, but that's my next option.
For clarification, I run a 24MBit ADSL line with (for testing) no firewalls on my PBX or the router, the
PBX which is, just for the purposes of this exercise, in the DMZ.
No, it's not secure, but it's all I could think of to try and get it to work.
My SIP provider is SipGate (who I know can be flaky at times...) but this exact set-up has worked
for me in the past.
So where should I look? Axon? Voicemail? MoH? Or SipGate?
I'd welcome some knowledge, so I can narrow it down somewhat before I pay for support or pay for
the product!!
(fwiw: TrixBox II worked fine doing everything, but I needed a Windows solution!!)
Thanks to anyone who can help out!
