Accfile

This file is used when Yate is registering itself to a remote server. It allows you to create lines for the SIP, H323, Jabber and IAX.

General parameters

• protocol: The protocol to register on (sip, iax, h323, jabber ...)
• username: Account username
• password: Account password
• interval: Registration interval (in seconds) to request from server (ignored for jabber)
• enabled:

Sections with enabled=no are always ignored.

If the enabled parameter is missing sections without username are ignored.

If enabled=yes the accounts are logged in even without an username.
