Migration to asterisk 18

[muslimak]

I am goign to install asterisk 18; I have been using asterisk 16 and chan_sip so far. I realize that there is no more chan_sip in asterisk 18 and i need to use pjsip. Can someone guide me with the config equivalent between chan_sip and pjsip

sip.conf → what is the pjsip equivalent?
rtp.conf → what is the pjsip equivalent?
modules.conf → what is the pjsip equivalent?
extensions.conf → what is the pjsip equivalent ?

And, how do i set up end points ? Is there any credible reference for me to look with the installation of asterisk 18 and configuring pjsip

Thank you.

Why? It goes out of support (security fix only) in one week.

Not true; chan_sip is available, but deprecated and not loaded by default, up
to and including Asterisk version 20.

and i need to use pjsip.

I recommend you start from a current version of Asterisk; it would be very
difficult to use chan_sip and pjsip at the same time (each needs to listen on a
different port number, for example), so you may as well just switch over and be
done with it.

Also a Google search for random postings about this topic throws up
https://feeding.cloud.geek.nz/posts/upgrading-from-chan_sip-to-res_pjsip-
asterisk-18/ which may or may not be useful, accurate or correct.

I conclude that there are two ways of constructing a software design: One way
is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the
other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious
deficiencies.

Hi,

chan_sip works perfectly in Asterisk 20, so it should not be an issue with older version, 18.

Asterisk 20.8.1~dfsg+~cs6.14.40431414-1 built by nobody @ buildd.debian.org on a unknown running Linux on 2024-06-07 12:10:19 UTC
194 sip peers [Monitored: 194 online, 0 offline Unmonitored: 0 online, 0 offline]
9249 calls processed

Module                         Description                              Use Count  Status      Support Level
chan_sip.so                    Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)        8          Running        deprecated

But if you are seeking a way to migrate by any other reason, take a look at this guide:
