Dedicated SIP TRUNK on Yeastar P-Series in kenya
Introduction
Yeastar P-Series dedicated SIP trunk from the provider. This kind of SIP trunk usually offers a dedicated cable to be connected with which comes from a specific ISP router, and is exclusive for voice only without Internet access function. So what’s the plan?
Regarding Yeastar P-Series VoIP PBX, there are 3 points noted:
- The network interface should be configured as Dual Mode： One is for the SIP dedicated trunk. The other one is for local network and Internet access
- Static Routes and Default Network Interface should be configured well. The SIP dedicated trunk data goes through the interface that it connects, and the rest data goes through the other interface.
- If SIP remote extension solution is involved, the NAT settings should be taken into consideration. This is to avoid one-way problem.
