      I'm using linphone 4.3. with freepbx14 /centos7 systems.

      I have only one question i can't resolve on my own. The option "My current identity" some times starts in the working option and other times this start in the default identity. I can't delete the option who has

      The problem is i can't make a call when Linphone starts using this profile. I need to switch to the other identity and then all works ok.

      Is there any way to force linphone to only use my SIP account? I cant delete the "Default identity".

      Best regards.

      Rana

        I don't believe that that one can be removed. And it's definitely useless.

          @scottalanmiller If the linphone cannot connect with any softphone on the same network and it gives me unavailable in my local network what is the solution in your opinion
          I am freepbx 14
          asterisk 14 install manual
          sip port 5060
          rtp port 10000-30000
          context=internal
          disallow=all ; only the sensible codecs
          allow=ulaw
          allow=alaw
          qualify=no ;
          firewall disable

            Why install something so ancient? You should be on 17.

              Nothing will fix this other than switching the default. You have to be on the correct profile for a call to work.

                Linphone should talk to the Asterisk server, not to other phones.

                  @scottalanmiller Honestly, I have a student and a beginner in this system .. So for this I choose this version because I did not face difficult problems in it when downloading it, this is in experiments, and I know that I can upgrade it. As for Soft Phone, it registered successfully in Aasterisk but no contact with zoiper

                    More specifically, you should be using Asterisk 16 if you do the LTS thing, or Asterisk 17 if you do the current thing.

                      I am still a student. I cannot use the TLS protocol because it is neeeded to a license .. do you think that there is a possibility that there is a problem in the issuance of the asterisk ..

                      I do not think so because all kinds of free soft phones have successfully registered with the system .. Do I download it again

                        I think you have no idea what you are talking about Student or not. Asterisk has zero licensing.

                        If you are going to use FreePBX, then you use the distribution, which includes the OS. You don't install it piecemeal.

                        If you are going to install only Asterisk, then you start by building the OS and dependencies required to compile it yourself.

                            You should not be downloading separately, that's making something very simple into something very hard. Just use the Asterisk built into FreePBX (which is 16 & 17.)

                              Asterisk is always free. Always.

                              LTS is not TLS. Both both are free.

                                Why did you choose this insane guide? FreePBX requires no guide, just download and install. This guide took something so simple it requires no guide and made it into something complicated and broken.

                                As a student, two huge rules you want to learn:

                                1. Keep in simple. Very little in IT is actually complicated or hard, but everyone wants you to think that it is. If it feels extra hard, something is probably wrong (especially for a super trivial task like doing a basic PBX install that people do every day. My VitalPBX install takes like 30 seconds and that includes installing the OS and rebooting!)
                                2. "Don't be weird." This one is super hard to explain and even harder to put into practice. But it's really important. It means - don't go out and start doing crazy off the wall things just to be different. Stick to the basics, use industry knowledge, don't reinvent a wheel that works perfectly well for millions of other people. Like painting, you have to grok the basic rules of the industry to know when to break them. Don't start by assuming all industry knowledge is wrong and that you have to come up with everything on your own, every time. We call it "don't be weird" because to people working in IT, doing things like trying to re-create the FreePBX distro with a really old version of Asterisk on your own when trying to learn the basics of telephony instead of just downloading FreePBX and having it all "just work" is.... well, weird.

                                  Of course not. But TLS isn't what we are discussing, either. You brought TLS into the conversation and it has nothing to do with anything.

                                  LTS means Long Term Support. It is LTS that Jared told you about.

                                      Yes, that's what you are expected to do. It's not required, of course, but especially as a student or beginner (in general, or just in telephony) you should start with the "standard" and easy way first. If you want to do things manually or in a hard way, which is totally fine, don't start there, make sure you see things working as expected the standard, easy way first and then only get complex once you are comfortable with how things work and/or should work.

                                      Here is the download page. FreePBX is free. Just click download. And it's the current version, not an old version. Easy, modern, up to date, free.

                                        Most enterprise PBXs, and FreePBX is no exception, give you the ENTIRE system. It's an "appliance." You don't download it as software and install on top of an OS as if it were an office suite or note taking application (although that's possible.) What you are expected to do is to download the "appliance" ISO and use that to do a full install. In this terminology, and appliance means that the entire system is pre-packaged for you (OS, software, configuration, etc.) So you install it the same as if it were an operating system (because it is) and voila, done. That's it. Had you installed FreePBX 15 instead of CentOS 7, you'd have been 100% done, with FreePBX up and working and fully configured in the same time it took you to install CentOS 7 and the same effort. It's literally that easy. Easier, in fact, as there are fewer additional choices to be made.

                                        This is meant for completely non-technical people in a business to be able to be up and running in minutes. If it feels hard, in any way (for the basics), then something is amiss. It should be super, duper quick and simple to get your PBX up and running.

                                          At least not any more, and not for several years... but there was a time, not THAT long ago that you did.

                                            Pretty long ago. Like mid-2000s I'd say. That's more than a generation in IT terms.
