Asterisk sip useragent

Created by: silvio,Last modification on Sat 13 of Jan, 2007 [04:36 UTC] by matsk
Customizing User-Agent field in the sip messages.

  useragent = <string> : Allow the SIP header "User-Agent" to be customized. The default is "Asterisk PBX".

Can only be spesified under the [general] section in sip.conf.

This is used to trick providers that block "Asterisk PBX" as SIP User agents.

What "SIP user agent identification" can be used ?

Its is a free field but if you would like to mimic a UA on the market then there is a list here:
SIP user agent identification

Thx, this helped me to fool a ITSP that deliberately blocked Asterisk sip client with the motivation "You can have several other users behind your asterisk!", and I responeded "How do you know that I haven't got several other users behind my ATA" and that I haven't got an reply to after 2 month!
