====== IAX Remote Access ======

** Experimenting with remote access via IAX **

==== From HamVOIP ====

{{ :public:radio:2025:iaxrpt-config.pdf |}}
===== IAX_RPT =====

  * Edit /etc/asterisk/iax.conf 
    * make new stanza for a named remote user and set an obscure password
    * looks like:

<code>
[NEW_USER_NAME]                           
type = user                           
context = iaxrpt    ; Context to jump to in extensions.conf
auth = md5
secret = NEW_TOP_SECRET_PASSWORD
host = dynamic
disallow = all
allow = ulaw
allow = adpcm
allow = gsm
transfer = no

</code>
    * disable/remove default [iaxrpt] stanza
  * Edit /etc/asterisk/extensions.conf
    * ensure there's an extension that's pointed to by the ''context'' entry in the iax.conf stanza above
      * looks like:


<code>
; CONTEXT Pointed to from iax.conf
[iaxrpt]                         
exten => ${NODE},1,rpt(${NODE}|X) 
</code>
===== Client Applications =====

    * [[https://hamvoip.org/downloads/setup_iaxrpt_xipar_010146.exe]]
      * {{ :public:radio:2025:setup_iaxrpt_xipar_010146.zip |}}
  * configure like this
    * port is the node's normal iax UDP port, as set up in Allstar Portal and in iax.conf

{{ :public:radio:2025:screenshot_2025-06-07_171550.png?direct&400 |}}
