Johan Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Currently i'm testing SnomOne, which went very smoothly on my testsetup in Hyper-v with win2k8r2-x64. So we decided to create a demoserver for our customers, thats where my problems started. The Demo server is a Win7Pro-NL-32bit machine. The server doesnot react to the Multicast from the phones, so no provisioning. I have to put in the HTTP client user/pw and provisioningpath in each phone to get them provisioned. The firewall on the server is turned off. I can see the multicasts from the phones with wireshark on my nic. Can anybody please help me TIA add.info: Server: Win7Pro-NL-32bit Snom version: 2011-4.2.0.3966 (Win32) (also tried 4.2.0.3950) Listen to sip.mcast.net: Yes Bind to MAC Address: <mac> on the extensions All Snom Phones, last firmware (8.4.18) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattlandis Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 by any chance--is this an entirely new install, or did you upgrade from pbxnsip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattlandis Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 Are switches or firewall blocking multicast? Common issue. Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johan Posted December 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 As you can read in my first post. I turned the firewall off, beside that i see the packets sent from the phone on the server nic with wireshark. The problem is the pbx doesnot react to the multicast.

Vodia PBX Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 Did you enable the multicast (admin/settings/listen to sip.mcast.net)? You can check with "netsh interface ip show joins" if the PBX listens to the sip-mcast.net address, which is 224.0.1.75. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johan Posted January 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 Did you enable the multicast (admin/settings/listen to sip.mcast.net)? You can check with "netsh interface ip show joins" if the PBX listens to the sip-mcast.net address, which is 224.0.1.75. I've had a busy time lately, finally got some time to look into this. Multicast is enabled in the SnomOne settings. However whenever i start/restart the machine the join is not created. When restarting the snomone service the join is created and visible in "netsh interface ip show joins". But still the server doesnot react to the multicast.

Johan Posted January 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 @pbxnsip: thx for putting me in the right direction. Problem is now solved, in my post above i didnot see that the wrong nic(Berofix) was joined in the multicast, by increasing the metric of the wrong nic, now the right nic joins the multicast. This remains one question: Why isn't the multicast join created on startup and do i have to restart the snomone service? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodia PBX Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 This remains one question: Why isn't the multicast join created on startup and do i have to restart the snomone service? Yea, multicast is a little bit tricky if you have multiple interfaces. The PBX needs to open a socket for each interface, and for the multicast provisioning stuff right now it uses only one socket. Multicast PnP on a public IP makes only limited sense anyway, the only thing I can think of would be multiple VLANs. But in such well-manages networks I would definitevely recommend to use option 66 anyway and don't rely one something like multicast PnP. Multicast PnP primary focus is on networks where you cannot set option 66 in the DHCP server (SoHo environments). They usually have only one interface on the PBX.
