  • You must add your ip to the whitelist rule in your iptables. You can do this by editing /etc/firewall.whitelist. Add all IPs that you will be connecting to in this file. Β run the following command in your ssh console "service fail2ban stop && /usr/src/incredpbx3/firewall/firewall-whitelist.sh && service fail2ban start"
  • (OPTIONAL)If your ISP provide you with dynamic ip, Β you have the following options
    • Add block of ips with 127.0.0.0/8 syntax. Β This mean allow all 127.XXX.XXX.XXX ip. Β Find what your ISP block ip and enter it in /etc/firewall.whitelist.Β  You need to follow up with running the following command in your ssh console "service fail2ban stop && /usr/src/incredpbx3/firewall/firewall-whitelist.sh && service fail2ban start"
    • Setup something like Travelin Man. See concept here http://nerdvittles.com/?p=689 and newer version the following thread http://pbxinaflash.com/forum/showthread.php?t=12179
    • One nice trick with dynamic dns http://pbxinaflash.com/forum/showthread.php?t=12091
  • Incredible PBX will set permit field on your extension. Β This IP will not likely be your IP. Β You should either empty the permit field or set it to a proper value (your ip or block of ip). Β It is just our optinion that this is a redundant security measure. Β The whitelist has already provide similiar or perhaps the same type of protection.
• If you experience " FATAL] Unable to connect to Asterisk Manager from /var/lib/asterisk/bin/retrieve_conf, aborting" after running incredible script, please check in /etc/hosts that you haveΒ a line that say "127.0.0.1 Β localhost localhost.localdomain"

Β You may want to check your asterisk log at /var/log/asterisk/log. Β If you fine messages like "Device does not match ACL". Β play around with type filed on your Extension setting. Β You may start with setting the type to peer.
