Asterisk with Linphone Softphone

Author image

lf configured as a normal sip phone with Asterisk, Linphone will only be able to call out, it will not accept incoming calls. It can also be fussy about the format of the caller ID string, mis-formatted strings can cause it to crash. The simplest solution: Do not use quotes in the callerid string.

The following is the configuration I have working with linphone 0.12.2

sip.conf:

[linphone]
type=friend
username=linphone
callerid=Ext 6003 <6003> ; NO QUOTES!
context=internal
secret=secret
qualify=no ; linphone will become unreachable if qualify=yes
host=dynamic
nat=no
canreinvite=yes
disallow=all ; only the sensible codecs
allow=ulaw
allow=alaw
allow=gsm

Linphone

You should configure Linphone as follows:

  • Connection->Preferences->SIP
  • Identity: Your SIP Address sip: <username>@<server>. Using the sip.conf above, sip:linphone@<server>
  • Remote Services: Use SIP registrar must be checked.Server Address: sip:<server>
  • Your password: <yourpassword>. Using the sip.conf above, Your password: secret
  • Address of Record: Should be componded automatically to sip:linphone@<server>

Use this registrar server as outbound proxy must be checked.
