Hi all,
For the past few days I am trying to work on the RTP media stream to be able to transfer data directly between PHONE A AND B. That is once the session is initiated, even if the asterisk server goes down the existing session should still be able to communicate. I believe this can be done only when there is a direct link between two phones over the internet(After initiating the Session) rather than going through the asterisk server. This would also help me on the reduction of server load!
So it would be great if someone can help me configure this in asterisk/trixbox. I am breaking my head!

Problem Solved! Just need to

Problem Solved! Just need to remove the "tr" in the Dial Options = under [globals]>extensions_additional.conf and then add canreinvite=yes in the phone extensions and also in sip.conf, it should work! For more information refer to this webpage http://voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+sip+canreinvite

Thanks man. I was looking for the exact same thing. Trying your solution right now.

Works great. You can change the dial setting directly into Freepbx thru the general settings

are you sure it is really

are you sure it is really working? if you stop asterisk, does the call continue?
as i understand it, there are a lot of problems with this, especially if NAT traversal between the endpoints is involved. i also thought that this only even vaguely sorted out with asterisk 1.4 and doesn't work well at all with the 1.2.x versions of asterisk.

it is working, but again as

it is working, but again as you said when the NAT is involved there is some problem with just one way communication and i am not sure about asterisk 1.2 versions compatibility as i have upgraded my asterisk 1.2 V in trixbox to 1.4.
I am currently working on the NAT issue once i figure that out i can let others know, not an issue!
