Hi Guys,

In a wholesale scenario where you want to add many permit IPs to a customer account what should be done?

I have tried tampering the addittional_a2billing_sip.conf and adding second line with host= , permitip=, and defaultip= but that doesn't help and account is only authenticated to the second IP or whichever IP is mentioned last.

I also did a copy of the entire SIP PEER detail from additional_a2billing_sip.conf and changed the ip address to a second IP and Asterisk still only validates whichever is last in the file. This makes sense in part of Asterisk.

Wondering if any of the wholesaler Gurus here can share their setting?

Thanks

I might be wrong but something like this should work.

[CA_01]
type=friend
context=a2billing
accountcode=Customer Account Number
host=xxx.xxx.xx.1
disallow=all
allow=g729
allow=alaw
allow=ulaw

[CA_02]
type=friend
context=a2billing
accountcode=Customer Account Number
host=xxx.xxx.xx.2
disallow=all
allow=g729
allow=alaw
allow=ulaw

[CA_03]
type=friend
context=a2billing
accountcode=Customer Account Number
host=xxx.xxx.xx.3
disallow=all
allow=g729
allow=alaw
allow=ulaw

Again... I think maybe this will work.

Kind Regards,

Les

Hi

You can achieve the same in A2Billing directly without resorting to manually adding configs to the dialplan. Just add a new sip friend, connect it to the customer, and change the accountcode field to that of the a2billing account number.

Hi Joe,

I have tried your way a couple of times in the past and it did not work for me and I always end up doing it how I described above.

When trying to do it your way, I would go to VoIP Settings > Add Sip Config and then click on the golden > to select the customer.

At that point the CID CARD and ACCOUNTCODE are filled in with the customers info. I would then enter the IP in the HOST field and save it.

If it works for you I am obviously doing something incorrect. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?

Kind Regards,

Les

I just tested Joe's method and it works. I am happy there is a work around for this.

Here is what I did:


Thanks Joe.

Hi Bruce,

Thanks for the confirmation and the details on how you made it work. I will give it another try on the next one I set up.

Kind Regards,

Les
