    Ratinox - 2009-05-11

    Hi, Ive setup a new server with Asterisk V1.6.1.0, Hylafax 4.4.4 and IAXmodem 1.2.0.

    I have set it up for load testing with 100 IAXmodems, and managed to send 100 fax's to itself in under 4 minutes, all fax's are send and received and appear correct, only problem is a repeated warning in Asterisk. I have tested and this warning happens even if I send only a single fax.

    Processor usage does not appear to be an issue.

    See below there are two "Max retries exceeded to host" warnings that appear to occur just as the fax's complete sending, is this a problem or can it safely be ignored?

      This probably represents a bug in libiax2 (in iaxmodem) or in chan_iax in Asterisk.
