Dear Admin,
My name is Ameneh from India. I am new in SIP. I have installed asterisk 1.8 on my ubuntu system and could have registered the internal users in my LAN to talk over x-lite.
Now my question is how can I make a call to a mobile in India or a PSTN number in another country that would require a public SIP I think. how can I make my SIP server as public? would you please help me?
thanks and regards, Ameneh
Hi,
I think you want asterisk help ! or is it related to iptel sip trunk ? Anyway here are few simple answers.
1- For asterisk you can install a Digium or Sangoma Card to connect PSTN lines to your server and make calls out to India using those PSTN lines. OR 1- As you said you can buy a local SIP trunk from some provider and configure it on your asterisk and use that sip trunk to make calls out to other countries, if that carrier allows you to.(mostly they do)
2 - To make your server public you need to assign a Public IP on it and your serevr will be directly on Internet.
Thanks, Sammy

As a word of advice.
You will have to pay someone for the mobile or PSTN calls. It is very unsafe to open your system to the public without very good security, especially very strong user passwords.
There are constant attacks by robots that attempt to break into systems and get free (for them) calls. If they succeed it will be at your cost.

HI,
For this you need connect to a telecom operator in India or a sip trunk provider. But I doubt that any telecom operator would do it. You can connect to an international SIP trunk provider. There will be lot's of packages for rates and payments. You can easily search the internet for possible partners.
Cheers.

Hi,
Considering the security aspect of SIP Trunk and the cost of dedicated TDM trunk, the cheapest option for you is to use your home PSTN line as TDM trunk..
To do that buy a PCI FXO card for Asterisk and setup the routing in asterisk either directly to your lan SIP phone(Xlite) or via openser/kamailio to Xlite. You can route all calls from SIP to PSTN and Vice versa. You will be able to do international calls if your home pstn phone has international plan.
The disadvantage here is you can do only 1 incoming call. I believe you can do multiple outgoing call with FXO line. Good thing is you can test all your capabilities before making the decision for dedicated trunk from service provider.
Thanks Jijo

Also a sip trunk account from any providers with strong credentials will serve the purpose. Connecting to internet could be dynamic IP as provided by many dsl providers. This will not give any security risks as you will not open any inbound ports.

There was suggestion about Asterisk and Digium PCB for using PSTN line you already have. This could be forbidden in India. We already worked in project, which included group in India, who used Asterisk for connection to PSTN, and they had problems. But I think you can use SIP providers. Stoyan
