Email alert when server not registered

<< < (2/2)

ProfTech:
That document indicates that the setting for [re]registration time should be 3600 seconds. That is once per hour. So if you lose power it could be up to one hour before registration occurrs and things are working again. Unless FPL actually needs that setting, I would recommend you set SIP -> RegistrationPeriod no higher than about 300. YMMV

I am under the impression* that when not registered it is the RegisterRetryInterval setting that determines how quickly re-registration can occur once other conditions would allow it.  The default value of that setting is 30 seconds.  Significantly less than the 1 hour that ProfTech says it could take.

* That impression is borne out by my observations over about 4 years.  On no occasion, after returning power to a previously registered OBi, has it ever taken more than a few tens of seconds for re-registration to occur.

ProfTech:
I mis-spoke when I said it could take an hour after a loss of power. Certainly the unit would attempt registration upon power up. But the OP also said this occurrs when something goes wonky with the router. Perhaps you are correct but ObiHai defaults the setting to 60 seconds and most providers seem to recommend 120 seconds [2 minutes]. The Obi 100 / 110 actually re-registers after 1/2 of the configured time has elapsed. In the 200 / 202 it is programmable.

*With a setting of 3600 the Obi is guaranteed to wait at least 1/2 hour between registrations [if the server allows that long]. If the individual has a dynamic WAN IP and it changes, the server may not be able to send any calls until the unit registers because it can't find the Obi.

Disclaimer - this is simply something to look at. I have never used FPL. [In about 5 years of using the Obi and Asterisk with several different service providers].
