Question : Tirxbox (asterix) inbound (recieve calls) trunk

Hi All ,
Just began to setup my shiny new trixbox CE ( asterix is cool , I am impressed so far..

I have a book (trixbox CE 2.6 Kerry Garrison) + have been reading alot of forum data but im stuck/unsure about how to configure the inbound call settings so the DID works on my test bed.

basically i have :
1 Trixbox (2.8) ( vmwared).
1 softfone X-lite.
1 voip acc with gotalk.
1 DID from gotalk (02804 xxxx)

Config:
I have setup 1 extension (505) with the defaults. and configured X-lite to connect with this.

I have setup 1 trunk (gotalk-SIP) with the following :

PEER details:
allow=alaw
disallow=all
dtmfmode=inband
fromuser=094xxxxx (your account no. NOT DID)
host=sip.gotalk.com
qualify=yes
secret=password (account password)
type=peer
username=094xxxxx

USER context: 094xxxxx
USER details:
context=from-trunk
fromuser=094xxxxx
host=dynamic
insecure=very
nat=yes
secret=password
type=user
username=094xxxxx

Register String:
094xxxxx:[email protected]lk.com/094xxxxx

I can call out find and am registering sucessfully

But when I try to dial my DID it goes straight to the gotalk voicemail ...

My question !!
What have i missed in the incoimming setup/ context setup/ DID inbound setup??
the book doesn't detail inbound enough at all.

Why is it going straight to voicemail ?
How do i get the extension ( 505) to ring when an inbound call is made to my DID?

thankyou in advance

Answer : Tirxbox (asterix) inbound (recieve calls) trunk

One thing that you must change is the host setting for the trunk USER details. It needs to be the same as the PEER settings and must not be set to "dynamic".
USER details:
context=from-trunk
fromuser=094xxxxx
host=sip.gotalk.com
insecure=very
...

Depending what you have set as the "Inbound DID" for extension 505, you may also need to change your register string:
Register String:
094xxxxx:[email protected]lk.com/505

The number on the end of the register string (after the slash) is what gotalk will send to Trixbox as the DID number of any inbound call so it needs to match the DID number of the extension you want to ring.

Try those changes and let us know if it fixes your problem.
