The same as you do to your local SIP phones. ---

Thatā€™s easier, but most customers of such services donā€™t have the static IP addresses you need for this. You need to understand [asteriskdocs.org](http://www.asteriskdocs.org) and the sample configuration files much better before you even think of running a service like that. Specifically, if you want authentication to work inbound, donā€™t disable it with insecure, and do provide a password. ---

Thanks for replaying , I still canā€™t make my service ok ā˜¹ this is what i did Server 1 : ip address : 10.1.1.3 [10.1.1.3] host=192.168.1.3 context=from-to-provider disallow=all allow=alaw&ulaw type=friend insecure=port,invite exten : [from-to-provider] exten =\> s , 1 , Answer() exten =\> s , 2 , Dialā€¦ Server2 : Ip Adresse 10.1.1.3 [10.1.1.2] Same sip config [111] friend connected to the server exten : exten =\> 111,1,Dial( SIP/111) exten =\> 113,1,Dial( SIP/10.1.1.2) when i want to call 113 logs in server 2give me inable to connect to the 10.1.1.2 , congestion in sever 1 i donā€™t hace nothing ā˜¹ Whould you please give me a sample configuration ? ---

insecure is wrong (insecure=invite disables incoming authentication, and makes no sense without a secret). secret is missing Not just in this case, peer is better than friend. I donā€™t understand what you mean by server IP address? (This may or may not explain why you might need friend.) You appear to have two entries with the same host IP address. Asterisk cannot distinguish between incoming calls if they have the same address if it has to match on address. Why are you calling Answer? I donā€™t give sample configurations for relatively normal cases. I guess 2give means ā€œto giveā€ (text speak) and ā€œi donā€™t hace nothingā€ means ā€œI get nothingā€ (double negative, capitalisation and typo). You will need to turn up debugging to find out why 192.168.1.3 is rejecting INVITEs to sip:192.168.1.3. Note you are connecting to 192.168.1.3, not to 10.1.1.2. ---

Thanks for replaying Just befor i wanted to explain my network architectur : To make my tests , i v built a virtual environement where i have two asterisk servers . The first have the address 10.1.1.2 and the second 10.1.1.3 . i v modified my configuration . but still canā€™t have my servers communicate ā˜¹ would u please verify if iā€™ did the correct config in my sip : type=friend host=10.1.1.2 dtmfmode=rfc2833 disallow=all allow=ulaw allow=g729 port=5060 insecure =port canreinvite=no context=from\_to\_voip thaaanks a lot for ur colaboration ---

canreinvite= was renamed to directmedia= in Asterisk 1.6.2 to more accurately describe what this setting does. See also the closely related setting directrtpsetup. If what you are trying to do, is to connect 2 Asterisk boxes. This book have an example called Connecting Two Asterisk Boxes Together via SIP [asteriskdocs.org/en/2nd\_Edition/ ā€¦ -book.html](http://asteriskdocs.org/en/2nd_Edition/asterisk-book-html/asterisk-book.html)
