; Trunking notes:
 +
; Trunking can be enabled when routing by a 'trunkout' parameter for outgoing calls
 +
;  and 'trunkin' parameter for incoming calls.
 +
; When registering a line to a remote server trunking can be enabled using a 'trunking'
 +
;  parameter set in 'user.login' message
 +
; The following parameters can be set in 'user.login' to override the defaults:
 +
;  trunk_timestamps, trunk_sendinterval, trunk_maxlen, trunk_efficient_use,
 +
;  trunk_nominits_sync_use_ts, trunk_nominits_ts_diff_restart
 +
; When setting trunking parameters for a call the order is:
 +
;  - init with configured parameters value
 +
;  - override with parameters set for line (outgoing calls only)
 +
;  - override parameters set when routing
 +
; IMPORTANT: When a call is set to send trunked data all parameters related to
 +
;  trunk (timestamps use, send interval, max packet length) are ignored if there
 +
;  is another call using trunking with the same remote ip/port.
 +
;  TAKE CARE WHEN SETTING TRUNKING PARAMETERS IN MORE THEN 1 PLACE FOR THE SAME
 +
;  REMOTE IP/PORT !!!
 +
; When routing a call to iax module a specific listener can be specfied:
 +
;  1: Its name can be set in 'oconnection_id' parameter.
 +
;    The name of the listener created from 'general' section is 'iaxengine'
 +
;  2: Local ip/port can be specified in 'oip_transport_localip' and
 +
;  'oip_transport_localport'. The port defaults to 4569 if missing.

Yate has support for IAX2 Protocol. The module is called yiaxchan and the associated configuration file is yiaxchan.conf.

This module is a VoIP IAX2 driver based on ours Yiax library.

Using the default configuration for this file Yate will act as a IAX Server.

Yate can be used as a IAX Server and also as a IAX Client by using YateClient.

[edit] Trunking

IAX trunking means that audio data between 2 peers (same ip/port) can be combined into a single packet for multiple calls.
E.g. an entity wanting to send trunked media packets from local ip 1.2.3.4:4569 to 1.2.3.5:4569 would gather media packets from multiple calls into a single packet and send it when a certain amount of time had ellapsed or the packet had reached some length limit.
It is essential to understand that trunking can occur between same local/remote ip/port: packets for calls with different local or remote ip/port can't be put together in a trunked packet.
The advantage of using trunking is to lower the bandwidth: the number of sent packets decreases leading to lower IP overhead.

In the next images the green, blue and red rectangles represents audio packets sent by different IAX calls.
The images show how audio packets are sent without trunking and with trunking.

Iax trunk none.png
Iax trunk.png 

Note: The order of audio packets inside a trunked packet is not important.

For all calls the remote party can send trunked audio frames.
They will be handled automatically, there is no configuration for it.

To send trunked frames each call must be configured explicitly, as we can see below for incoming and outgoing calls.

[edit] Outgoing calls

The 'call.execute' message must have a trunkout=true parameter 
^200$=iax/diana@10.0.0.1:4569/123;trunkout=true

[edit] Incoming calls

A trunkin=true parameter must be set when routing or executing an incoming IAX call: 
[contexts]
${module}iax=if ${ip_host}^10\.0\.0\.1=;trunkin=true
or 
[default]
^300$=sip/sip:1234@1.2.3.4;trunkin=true

[edit] Configuration

File yiaxchan.conf: 

; Trunking notes:
; Trunking can be enabled when routing by a 'trunkout' parameter for outgoing calls
;  and 'trunkin' parameter for incoming calls.
; When registering a line to a remote server trunking can be enabled using a 'trunking'
;  parameter set in 'user.login' message
; The following parameters can be set in 'user.login' to override the defaults:
;  trunk_timestamps, trunk_sendinterval, trunk_maxlen, trunk_efficient_use,
;  trunk_nominits_sync_use_ts, trunk_nominits_ts_diff_restart
; When setting trunking parameters for a call the order is:
;  - init with configured parameters value
;  - override with parameters set for line (outgoing calls only)
;  - override parameters set when routing
; IMPORTANT: When a call is set to send trunked data all parameters related to
;  trunk (timestamps use, send interval, max packet length) are ignored if there
;  is another call using trunking with the same remote ip/port.
;  TAKE CARE WHEN SETTING TRUNKING PARAMETERS IN MORE THEN 1 PLACE FOR THE SAME
;   REMOTE IP/PORT !!! 
; When routing a call to iax module a specific listener can be specfied:
;  1: Its name can be set in 'oconnection_id' parameter.
;    The name of the listener created from 'general' section is 'iaxengine'
;  2: Local ip/port can be specified in 'oip_transport_localip' and
;   'oip_transport_localport'. The port defaults to 4569 if missing.
;  If a non empty connection id or local address is specified and a valid listener
;   is not found the call will fail

; NOTE: Choose values greater the packet time to drop more packets at a time.
;  Lower values will drop less packets in a row but this will happen more frequently
; Its value will be rouded up to a multiple of 10
; This value is applied on reload for new calls only
; It can be overridden from routing
; It can't be greater then adjust_ts_out_threshold
; Defaults to 120
; Allowed interval: 10 .. adjust_ts_out_threshold

;trunk_threads=1

; thread: keyword: Default priority of the data service threads (socket listener and data trunking)
; Can be one of: lowest, low, normal, high, highest
; It is a bad idea to set a low priority for anything but testing
;thread=normal

; maxchans: int: Maximum number of channels running at once
; This is not a listener specific parameter, it will be applied for all listeners
; A value of 0 specifies that there is no limit enforced.
; Defaults to the value set by the maxchans setting from yate.conf

; Defaults to yes
;printmsg=yes


[registrar]
; Controls the behaviour when acting as registrar

; expires_min: int: Minimum allowed expiration time in seconds
; This parameter is applied on reload
; Minimum allowed value is 1
; Defaults to 60 if missing
;expires_min=60

; expires_max: int: Value used to limit the expiration time to something sane
; This parameter is applied on reload
; Minimum allowed value is the value set in expires_min
; Defaults to 3600 if missing
;expires_max=3600

; expires_def: int: Default expiration time if not present in register requests
; This parameter is applied on reload
; The value is checked to be between expires_min and expires_max
; Defaults to 60 if missing
;expires_def=60

;gsmhr=enable

; lpc10: bool: LPC 10
;lpc10=enable


;[listener listener_name]
; This section configures an extra listener to use
; 'iaxengine' can't be used as listener name
; Listed parameters can't use the default value from 'general' section
; All other parameters from 'general' section who are listener specific can be overriden
;  for this listener

; enable: boolean: Enable or disable this listener
; This parameter is applied on reload and defaults to yes
;enable=yes

; port: int: UDP port for incoming connections
;port=4569

; Defaults to yes
;force_bind=yes

; default: boolean: Specifiy if this is the default transport to use when none specified
; Defaults to no
;default=no

[edit] Routing a IAX channel

From a routing module you can call an IAX channel like this: 

extension=iax/iax:user@ip:port/called_number

For example, in regexroute.conf you can have: 

^200$=iax/iax:diana@10.0.0.1/123

if you want to use the default protocol port (4569), or: 

^200$=iax/iax:diana@10.0.0.1:4570/123

if you know that the called party is using the given port for incoming connections.

[edit] Notes

  • The port you set it's the port the library is using to listen for incoming connections. If you change the default protocol port the callers might not know the new one, so any call they made will fail.
  • When you set a route, be sure you know the destination's port. Again, if the port is incorrect the call will fail.
  • If you set the preferred format to a non existing or not enabled one another format will be chosen for library use.
