Asterisk 16.1.1 not responding to SIP options request from SIP provider

Asterisk Asterisk SIP
1

This is an Azure install of Asterisk 16.1.1. The installation is using SIP not PJSIP. The SIP is re-registering every 30 seconds because Asterisk is not responding to the SIP provider option request. This creates an alert on the provider side which blocks all calls to the SIP.

How can i see the Option request from the provider in the console or logs? qualify=yes is set in sip.conf

i already have one asterisk server up and running as expected without any problem. I don’t know if this is a problem with the providers config or asterisk.

sip set debug on.

Note you have a copy and paste configuration based on a very outdated source.

Please explain David. are you speaking of using SIP and not PJSIP?

Your configuration file was one for chan_sip.

Your log shows no incoming OPTIONS. On that basis you need to find out why they are not reaching Asterisk.

David, is this asterisk attempt to send options to SIP provider?

It is, and the provider is replying to it.

8

thanks David, I’m going back to the provider. Asterisk is responding to their option request.

9

Hi David, I’m still working this problem with SIP provider trying to determine why the SIP provider is not receiving Asterisk reply to Options Polling. The SIP provider ask if Asterisk could be configured to reply to option polling by way of a different SIP proxy address over UDP. While still maintaining TLS SIP signaling and Voice.
Is something like this possible and how would sip.conf look?

10

Hi, I am implementing a sip proxy with kamailio and multiple asterisk servers, when kamailio send the OPTIONS asterisk don´t reply, and i see with sngrep tool that in the asterisk servers the SIP message OPTIONS arrives, but has no reply from asterisk, and enabling the sip debug nothing occurs, but the OPTIONS message between asterisk servers is all ok.

SIP Messages from kamailio to an asterisk server:
