AudioCodes MP-112 or MP-118 or MP-124 working with Asterisk

Some help to get an MP-112, MP-118, MP-124 working with Asterisk.  I'm specifically using the FreePBx distro 13.0.197.22, but I feel that most versions should work. 

I've made these work directly with CallCentric as well, the change required are noted in the configuration below.  If it will work with them, you can probably make it work with any ITSP

Tested on an AudioCodes MP-112 on Firmware 6.60A.342.003    

Tested on an AudioCodes MP-118 on Firmware 6.60A.332.002    
Tested on an AudioCodes MP-124 on Firmware 6.60A.326.005      

In asterisk (FreePBX) create a SIP extension and save/submit changes.  The passwords on the AudioCodes seem to be limited to around 15 characters.

---If you have already configured your Audiocodes and just want to enter a new number, down and perform only STEP 4 and STEP 5

The default ip of these boxes is usually 10.1.10.10 or 10.1.10.11  (model depending).  Default user Password is Admin/Admin  (It uses a capital  "A")

STEP 1

VoIP -> SIP Definitions -> Proxy & Registration

    1    "Use Default Proxy" = Yes 

    2    "Enable Registration" = Enable

    3    Press SUBMIT

    4    select "PROXY SET TABLE", button (little arrow)

STEP 2

    1    Under "PROXY ADDRESS" put in the IP address of your Asterisk server.

    2    To the right of that entry, set Transport Type = UDP

    3    Enable Proxy Keep Alive = Using Options
          NOTE: I've found CALLCENTRIC worked better if you select "Using Register"

    4    Press SUBMIT

STEP 2A

VoIP -> SIP Definitions -> General Parameters

My system used 5061 for SIP (not 5060 PJSIP) so i had to make the following changes.  These might not apply to you.

Change the default 5060 ports to 5061

STEP 3

VoIP -> GW and IP to IP -> Analog Gateway -> Caller ID Permission

** This is an important step in the configuration process.  The system just doesn't seem to work without doing this step! **

Set to ENABLE for each FXS port (assuming you want them to have CLID display)|

Press SUBMIT

STEP 4

For AudioCodes gateways that are already configured, start at this spot to ADD additional phones to the system.

VoIP -> GW and IP to IP -> Analog Gateway -> Authentication

Enter in your extension(s) and the password (aka secret) into these boxes.  The password is limited though to around 15 characters.

The Gateway port is the port that the extension is plugged into.  Either the little Rj11 jacks on the back, or the 50pin connector on the 24 channel unit.

Press SUBMIT

STEP 5
VoIP -> GW and IP to IP -> Hunt Group -> EndPoint Phone Number

Enter in the extension (or Callcentric Account) for PHONE NUMBER

Channels     Phone Number    Hunt Group ID    Tel Profile ID

1. 1                   1000                     [blank]                   0
2. 2                   1002                     [blank]                   0

Press SUBMIT (If you are watching asterisk live log, your extensions should show as registered)

STEP 6
VoIP ->GW and IP to IP -> DTMF and Supplementary -> DTMF and Dialing

Change MAX DIGITS In phone Num = 15 (assuming you want to be able to dial long distance.)

Press SUBMIT

You should now be able to make some test calls.  *43 will get you into an echo test on Asterisk

STEP 7

If all works, select BURN on to save these to memory.
