Asterisk settings for YAK Communications

Author image

NOTE: Nov 23, 2005 – After a couple weeks of waiting, YAK still has not replied to my request for more information. At this point, I’m not using my YAK configuration at all. Consider the information below as a starting point, and feel free to take it from there. Your mileage most definitely WILL vary.

Outgoing calls work the first time, but the second attempt at a call yields a message from Yak saying “this card is already in use.” Also, quality seems a little off. If I ever hear back from Yak on questions regarding accepted protocols and other settings, perhaps these settings will change for the better in the near future…

—sip.conf—
[general]
register => MEMBERID:PASSWORD@sipem.toroon.bb.yakbb.net

[yak]
type=peer
username=MEMBERID
fromuser=MEMBERID
authuser=MEMBERID
auth=md5
secret=PASSWORD
host=sipem.toroon.bb.yakbb.net
context=default
nat=yes
port=5060
disallow=all
allow=ulaw
allow=alaw
allow=gsm

(not sure what they all support wrt codecs, etc., but this barely works. Quality is poor.)

—extensions.conf—
[globals]
VOIPLONGDISTANCE=SIP/yak
VOIPLONGDISTANCEMSD=0

[default]
; route long distance calls via long distance provider
exten => _1NXXNXXXXXX,1,SetCallerID(${PHONENUMBER}|a)
exten => _1NXXNXXXXXX,2,Dial,${VOIPLONGDISTANCE}/${EXTEN:VOIPLONGDISTANCEMSD}
exten => _1NXXNXXXXXX,3,Hangup
exten => _011.,1,SetCallerID(${PHONENUMBER}|a)
exten => _011.,2,Dial,${VOIPLONGDISTANCE}/${EXTEN:VOIPLONGDISTANCEMSD}
exten => _011.,3,Hangup
