I have been experimenting with Asterisk for a few weeks and finally decided to
take the plunge and purchase a few DIDs for inbound calling. Our attempts at
IAX/IAX2 connectivity with VoicePulse have been less than successful. We get
"Registration Refused" errors from Asterisk whenever we launch the server. The
front-line support folks at VoicePulse suggested that we are trying to use IAX instead
of IAX2 as the protocol. I have pasted the exact error message (with account info deleted)
and their recommended configuration files below.
Any and all assistance would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks,
