Hello,

I have just installed Freeswitch on OpenSUSE 10.3.

I was wondering where the variable indicated with $$ get their values. I get
some problems with the variables local_ip_v4 and domain which are both
initialized with the loopback address 127.0.0.1. Thereof, no registration is
possible on the ip address of the PC (192.168.1.200) since the port 5060 is
closed. Freeswitch is apparently waiting on the port 5060 of the ip address
127.0.0.1 which is open.
How does it come that the loopback address is chosen?

I try the following: add in vars.xml $${local_ip_v4}=192.168.1.200. After
this freeswitch is listening at the port 5060 of 192.168.1.200. So it seems
to work, even if it does not answer my first question (where does the
default value of local_ip_v4 come?).
Moreover, I got another problem. The registrations are now possible but I
observe that the default domain is still bound to the ip address 127.0.0.1.
So I try to add in vars.xml $${domain}=192.168.1.200, which did not work.
The domain is still bound to 127.0.0.1. Why????

I thank you in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Carole

local_ip_v4 is setup inside switch_core.c as a global variable that
can be used in the config. FreeSWITCH will try to detect the proper
address to bind to for the sip profiles in your case it can't figure
it out since you might not be connected to the internet. So you can
open up vars.xml and set it... remember the default configs are just
an example of how to use FreeSWITCH not the set in stone way you
should use FreeSWITCH. You can also open up the xml files in
sip_profiles and input the sip-ip and rtp-ip in there also.

Ok thanks for your answer !!

Just in case some are interested in: I have made a mistake by telling that
putting "domain" to 192.168.1.200 does not work. It works but I did not pay
attention that domain was already assign to "local_ip_v4" so it was assigned
2 times and obviously it could not work...
I am sorry for that.

Thanks a lot,
Carole

You can reset what local_ip_v4 is set too also if you want ...

Hello,

I think I will keep first the first solution since I do not know yet how to
reset a variable.

Thank you very much for your help.
