Configuring H.323 end point on Asterisk 1.4.4

Asterisk Asterisk Support
1

I am trying to use the native h.323 code in Asterisk-1.4.4 as a H.323 end point connecting to an external H.323 Avaya gateway with its GK service. Below is the config for the h323.conf and extentions.com

; The NuFone Network’s
; Open H.323 driver configuration
;
[general]
port = 1720
bindaddr = 192.168.6.244 ; this SHALL contain a single, valid IP address for thi
s machine
type=user
gateway=no
callerid=asterisk
h323id=ObjSysAsterisk
gatekeeper = DISABLE
; gatekeeper = 192.168.6.248
; UserByAlias=no

; context=default
context=hell

[4448002]
type=user
context=hell
callerid=“6666”<6666>
ip=192.168.6.248

[default]
type=user
; type=h323
; type=user
; type=friend
; host=192.168.6.248
ip=192.168.6.248
context=default
port=1720
allow=all
dtmfmode=rfc2833

EXTENTIONS.conf

[general]

static=yes
writeprotect=no
autofallthrough=yes

[globals]

[default]
exten => _333…,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN:3})
exten => _54448002,1,Dial,H323/${EXTEN:1}@192.168.6.248

where 192.168.6.248 is the address of the Avaya server.

I dont see any connectivity

Alternately I am also trying to connect an Avaya 4620 SW (H.323) phone to asterisk (without a gatekeeper)

I am seeing success with neither. Can someone please throw some light on it?

Thanks a lot in advance
Cheers

have you installed and running h323?

type ‘show channeltypes’ in CLI, does OOH323 show up? or type ‘module show like 323’, does chan_ooh323.so show up?

if not, goto asterisk downloads, get latest addons and install ooh323 from it.

Yes I have h.323 running on the setup. And the output of “show channeltypes” displays

try to reload module with verbose on in CLI and see if you get any errors while loading.

enable h323 debug in CLI, do some h323 activity and see what you see in CLI. That could be helpful
