Asterisk Configurations for connecting with VOIP providers

Posted by , on August 24, 2005

It is considered bad style to use a dialstring with a password as in “user:[email protected]” since username and password will then show up on the console. Instead, for each provider enter a peer entry in sip.conf or iax.conf and use that peer entry’s name in your dialstring as in “user@peername”. Username and password pairs in dialstrings should only be used for testing!
