Using VG to connect two OBis (to give dial tone at distant end)
ianobi:
I was working on the above before I saw your last post.
The rule {(<#:>):vg1} was never going to work (I should know better!) It really says replace # with nothing and send that to vg1. Well, the Obi was never going to be happy with that!
Hopefully, my last post will lead to some better ideas.
Millennium:
Thank you Ianobi!
I will give it a try tonight (parent's visit permitting!) and report back. Once I have something that works, and I understand it, I will feel more confident to play around with the settings knowing that I have a 'known good' starting point. France does have a 'closed' dialling plan so that does make things simpler.
Thanks again.
ianobi:
A couple of basics to check:
Select device from OBi Dashboard - on the Device Configuration page SP2 should show "Registration Not Required" meaning that it is enabled, but not configured with a service provider.
Assuming the above, then either of the methods I suggested should send something out to sp2 (via vgX). Before resorting to syslog, log into OBi directly and look at Call History after making calls. Then you can compare what you dialled with what was sent out. This will also help when configuring the Inbound settings for the other OBi.
Millennium:
Do you mean Voice Service, SP2 Service X_RegisgterEnable is unchecked (which it is) or somehere else?
Edit: I've gone to Device configuration, the Configure Voice Service Providers area says SP2 (Optional) Not Configured. Is that what you mean and is it correct!
ianobi:
That is the correct setting, but not quite what I meant.
Start from OBi Dashboard. Select your OBi number. That should take you to Device Configuration page. This shows the status of SP1 and SP2. SP1 probably shows "Registered" presuming you have a service provider allocated to it. SP2 should show "Registration Not Required". If not, go to SP2 Service page - check something is in SP2 AuthUserName (anything will do) and that the Enabled box is ticked at the top of the page.
If you had to change any of that then submit, wait for reboot, then check the Device Configuration page again.
