Problem Asterisk with TLS

hi , i need a help
I try to build VoIP small network with asterisk and have a plan to using TLS+SRTP for securing my communications.
im using asterisk 16.6.1 on ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS (on virtualbox)
im traying to configure TLS on asterisk may times but still not working
this is my asterisk logs;

Connected to Asterisk 16.6.1 currently running on arwadhahri-VirtualBox (pid = 1124)

This suggests to me that it is a new installation. In that case there is no point in pursuing a problem configuring chan_sip as you should be using chan_pjsip. chan_sip will be removed in the near future.

(I have a feeling that TLSv1 is no longer supported - as it is no longer considered secure.)

TLSv1 is supported, but on a new Debian installation TLS 1.2 is the minimum by default.

I have to manually roll this back because some of my ATAs only support TLS 1.0, so it’s either TLS 1.0 or bust. Here’s how to fix this:

sed -i 's/TLSv1.2/TLSv1.0/g' /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf
sed -i 's/DEFAULT@SECLEVEL=2/DEFAULT@SECLEVEL=1/g' /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf

Reboot the server and TLS 1.0 should work. Confirmed working with the latest version of Asterisk (18.3).

Also, chan_sip is disabled by default in 18, you will need to change noload => chan_sip to noload => chan_pjsip in modules.conf.

In order to use SRTP, you also need to add:

encryption = yes

to your users.

SIP won’t be removed until Asterisk 21 which is likely still a few years away at this point. My understanding is that there are still some things missing from PJSIP before it is on par with SIP. I haven’t had any good experiences experimenting with PJSIP yet myself but sooner or later I will have to look into the migration. My opinion is that SIP is much easier to get working though so it’s a good starting place.

first thnx for your help
I know that chan_sip will be deleted in the future but I personally prefer to work with it because it is simpler than chan_pjsip (note: I will be using asterisk for a short period only for my graduation project)
I tried to use the commands you mount; the asterisk logger is changed but when I write ‘sip show settings’ the ‘tls sip bindaddress = disabled’
