PJSIP Endpoint AOR Question

I am running asterisk 13.1.0

In pjsip.conf, the endpoint section has an aors and an auth field.

I can name the auth field anything I want. The key is to set the auth=field accordingly. However, when I try this with the aors field, it never works. It seems I have to name the aors=field to match the name of the endpoint section.

Is this correct?

Would there ever be a need for multiple aors to a single endpoint? Since the field is named aors, I thought this would be possible. How would I do this if I have to name the aor the name of the endpoint?

This fails…

[transport1]
type = transport bind = 0.0.0.0
protocol = udp

[aor3]
type = aor max_contacts = 1
remove_existing = yes

[auth3]
type = auth username = 1003
password = Password

[1003]
type = endpoint context = Test transport = transport1
auth = auth3
aors = aor3
dtmf_mode = inband device_state_busy_at = 1
disallow = all allow = ulaw

This succeeds…

  • I don’t know why you have issues using different names. I have multiple AORs assigned to a single endpoint and it works fine. I have to admit that my AORs do contain the endpoint name, though. For example, for endpoint
    “myswitch” I have two AORs, “myswitch_1” and “myswitch_2”, and I assign them to the endpoint with aors=myswitch_1,myswitch_2.

    When you say that the first example fails, what specifically fails? Do the PJSIP modules load but then you get an error when trying to dial to an endpoint, or maybe receive a call from one?

  • I just realized that you are asking about dynamic AORs, not static Contacts in an AOR. That may be the difference. I have never actually tried giving a dynamic AOR a different name. And you wouldn’t want more than one dynamic AOR, you’d just use an AOR that allowed more than 1 contact.

    Whether you have to name it the same or not is up to the SIP client registering. Some allow you to specify the AOR you are registering against. Some assume that the username you are authenticating as is the same as your AOR.

    Cheers,

  • Thanks Joshua.

    That must be it. I’m using PhonerLite and a Cisco SPA504G phone.

    Have a great day!
