3CX and IPKall - no audio

Postby dsummer » Tue Jan 31, 2012 2:38 pm

Hi all. I'm having trouble setting up 3CX for personal use to work with IPKall. I have never setup a PBX before and only use 3CXPhone on a regular basis.

3CX Phone System 10 (SP5) is installed on a Win 7 server and 3CXPhone 5.0.14900 is installed on a Win 7 desktop. Both are within the same LAN and the firewalls of the router and individual systems are configured properly. Firewall Checker completes successfully.

From what I understand, I created a new trunk for IPKall using the VOIP Provider Wizard and Generic VoIP Provider template. I specified the IPKall IP address under the 'SIP server hostname or IP' field and left the 'Outbound proxy hostname or IP' field blank. Secondly, I added an extension 100 and assigned a password to it. This allowed 3CXPhone to login to 3CX. Thirdly, I went to Settings > Advanced, checked 'Allow calls to external SIP URIs' to allow direct SIP calls, and specified a dynamic DNS hostname in 'Local SIP domain'.

When I call my IPKall number, it rings successfully and connects. However, there is no audio in either direction.

I think there is some setting I must have missed. Could someone kindly help me?

Here are the entries from the server activity log for an inbound call:

No audio issues is almost always the result of the voice packets being blocked by either a router or firewall.

I question this port number, where did it come from?

Hi leejor. Thank you for your reply.

The WAN ports that are open on the router to the server are 5060 TCP+UDP, 5090 TCP+UDP, 7000-7499 UDP, and 9000-9049 UDP.

I believe that port number is a listening port randomly opened by the 3CXPhone application. If I run the command 'netstat -a -o -n', I have these lines for the process ID of 3CXPhone.exe:

Code: Select all
Active Connections

  Proto  Local Address          Foreign Address        State           PID
  TCP    0.0.0.0:52633          0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING       3324
  TCP    0.0.0.0:52634          0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING       3324
  UDP    0.0.0.0:52633          *:*                                    3324

which seems to match the server log for another test call:

Code: Select all
00:42:54.172  [CM503016]: Call(9): Attempt to reach <sip:100@192.168.1.10:5060> failed. Reason: Busy
00:42:47.449  Currently active calls - 1: [9]
00:42:43.065  [CM503002]: Call(9): Alerting sip:100@192.168.1.11:52633;rinstance=c17a31dcfb0d9c6c
00:42:42.862  [CM503004]: Call(9): Route 1: Ext:Ext.100@[Dev:sip:100@192.168.1.11:52633;rinstance=c17a31dcfb0d9c6c]
00:42:42.862  [CM505003]: Provider:[IPK] Device info: Device Not Identified: User Agent not matched; Capabilities:[reinvite, replaces, able-no-sdp, recvonly] UserAgent: [IPKall] PBX contact: [sip:100@98.207.98.182:5060]
00:42:42.847  [CM503012]: Inbound out-of-office hours rule (unnamed) for 10000 forwards to DN:100
00:42:07.903  [CM503016]: Call(8): Attempt to reach <sip:100@192.168.1.10:5060> failed. Reason: Busy

I'm stumped. I'm beginning to understand why most people just forward IPKall to a SIP provider. :(

Thank you,
Eugene

I have it working just fine, send directly to my DynDNS URL. I haven't opened any ports beyond the "normal" ones used by 3CX. You might try a different router as some (especially the more "complicated") don't play well with SIP some times.

You could try bypassing your router and (for a short test) let the 3CX server pick up a public IP. If that worked, then you know you have a router issue. Are you positive that there are no firewall programmes running?

"Verbose" log may provide more information. It contains entries which are describing "media" part of negotiations.
