Thanks Shelby, the vars.xml file tells me that if external_sip_ip is unspecified (which I think it is), then the bind_server_ip is used, i.e., "auto" Getting off topic, I stumbled on freenode today, I wasn't sure what I needed to do to get IRC running on Windows - yet, another "to do" !

Dave,
I'm not sure how the file structure works on Windows. But sofia is the SIP endpoint (and what you're wanting to confgure).
The bind_server setting only relates to mod_dingaling (I think). Yes you can change the IP address ... but you'll need to restart FS or reload the sofia profiles. The conf settings for external_sip_ip, etc. are the ones that matter.
Good luck! You can also hop on freenode @ #freeswitch and everyone there is quite helpful.

Hi Shelby,
thanks for the reply on the IP Address Question.
I do not have a $FS_DIR/conf/sofia_profiles/ directory ?
$FS_DIR/conf/vars.xml has a line :- <X-PRE-PROCESS cmd="set" data="bind_server_ip=auto"/>
I'd guess that this means that the Server uses the machines IP address automatically, so, I can change the IP address to fixed and don't need to make any changes at the Server end - just need to update the Clients.
regards Dave

Dave,
You should check out the settings in $FS_DIR/conf/sofia_profiles/ and $FS_DIR/conf/vars.xml. To make the changes take effect just restart FS or use the API commands for reloading the sofia profiles.
You'll definitely want to set a static IP address on the FS server (or make sure the DHCP server always assigns the same IP address to the FS server). Otherwise you'll constantly be changing the clients that have to connect to FS.

Hi,
I am new to FreeSwitch - and VOIP too (as the following questions will indicate).
I am trying to setup a VOIP system at home and am just getting started, I have been trawling through the Docs/Wiki and realise that I have a lot to learn !
Anyway, here's the first (of what I'm sure will be many !) questions, hopefully someone will take the type to help me out......
OK, I have already worked out that FreeSwitch seems to be much better supported under Linux than Windows (is that a fair comment ?), but while I have a long term intention to give Linux a go, it's something that is on the back burner (and has been for some time). At the moment, the current plan is to use FreeSwitch under WindowsXP and I have loaded the latest Windows Install. Everything seems to be working fine so far - well, in test mode anyway, my VOIP phones and teleco interface won't be here until next week, so at the moment, I'm just trying out the system with X-Lite.
The first question that I have is about WAPSERVER. This was installed as part of the FreeSwitch install. At the moment, I am manually starting FreeSwitch and WAPSERVER does not seem to start automatically. When I manually start it, it says that it is OFFLINE until I manually put it ONLINE. So :-
1. What does WAPSERVER actually do ? 2. How should it be started ? 3. My next step is to configure the Server PC to auto-logon to my Windows 2003 Server domain and put FreeSwitch in the Startup Group - do I need to add WAPSERVER there too ?
The next question is about the ServerIP address. Not thinking far enough ahead, the machine that I installed FreeSwitch on uses DHCP to get its IP Address. I guess that the FreeSwitch server should really have a static IP Address. If I change the PC to have a static IP Address, then
1. Do I need to re-install FreeSwitch 2. If not, is there a or is there command to get FreeSwitch to updated itself with a new IP Address ? 3. Maybe the Server does not need to know the change - maybe if only affect the clients (Phones/SoftPhones ?)
Thanks & Best Regards Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------
