hi
I am having a strange issue. outgoinglimit on sip peer is set to 2 but some users have somehow managed to breach this restriction intentionally or unintentionally and are able to initiate more that 2 calls at a time.
i have searched alot on google but found only 2 reasons
1- using sip realtime peers (we are not using this)
2- some bug in chan_sip.c source code update_call_counter function. (check this link: issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=6111)
from point 2 above it seems this is a bug in source code but it happened last month only once during the course of 4 years.
but i tested alot by making test calls but there is no issue with outgoinglimit.
i have following questions:
- I wonder how someone has breached this call limit.
- are there any sip.conf parameters that can affect outgoinglimit.
- what else I can do to guarantee limiting simultaneous outgoing calls.
- why it happened one in 4 years? what could be wrong.
any help will be highly appreciated.
thanks
