CRITICAL FIX:
- Added load_config() call in add_device_menu to read saved ENABLE_TLS setting
- Device display now correctly shows UDP/5060 when ENABLE_TLS != "y"
- Device display shows TLS/5061 only when ENABLE_TLS == "y"
- SRTP requirement properly displayed based on TLS configuration
OTHER FIXES:
- ICE support only enabled when DOMAIN_NAME is set (FQDN/internet calling)
- RTP config: icesupport and STUN only for FQDN setups, not LAN-only
- Added informative message after server install before internet setup prompt
ISSUE RESOLVED:
When installing server-only without selecting internet/certs, devices now
correctly show:
Transport: UDP (port 5060)
SRTP: Not required
This matches the actual pjsip.conf configuration and allows mobile devices
to properly register with UDP transport on LAN networks.
Created v1.28.sh with all fixes, keeping v1.23.sh for reference.
FIXES:
- Device display now correctly shows UDP/5060 for LAN-only installs
- Device display now correctly shows TLS/5061 only when ENABLE_TLS=y
- SRTP shown as "Required" only when TLS enabled, "Not required" for UDP
- ICE support only enabled when DOMAIN_NAME is set (FQDN/internet calling)
- RTP config: icesupport and STUN only enabled for FQDN setups
ISSUE RESOLVED:
When installing server without internet/certs option, devices are now
correctly configured for LAN-only operation:
- Transport: UDP (port 5060)
- SRTP: Not required
- No ICE/STUN for LAN-only
This matches actual pjsip.conf configuration and allows mobile devices
to properly register with UDP transport on LAN.
Removed v1.26 and v1.27 - reverting to simpler, working v1.23 base.
FIXES:
- ICE support now conditionally enabled only for FQDN/internet calling
- LAN-only setups (Quick Local Setup) no longer have ICE enabled
- pjsip.conf endpoints: ice_support only added when DOMAIN_NAME is set
- rtp.conf: icesupport only enabled when DOMAIN_NAME is configured
SCENARIOS SUPPORTED:
1. LAN only (Quick Local) - NO ICE, NO STUN, NO TURN ✓
2. FQDN with VPN - ICE enabled (DOMAIN_NAME set) ✓
3. FQDN without VPN, with COTURN - ICE + TURN ✓
4. FQDN without VPN, without COTURN - ICE (optional STUN) ✓
This ensures proper protocol configuration for all installation modes.
Major Installation Flow Restructure:
**Full Setup (Option 2):**
1. VPN Detection - Shows benefits of VPN vs COTURN
2. Install base software (Asterisk + Baresip)
3. Optional: Internet/FQDN Setup
- Clear YES/NO choice with colored guidance
- If NO: Uses local network or VPN IP
4. Optional: COTURN Setup (only offered if internet setup chosen)
- Clear warning: "⚠ COTURN is complex and usually NOT needed!"
- Shows when you DON'T need it (VPN, port forwarding, same network)
- Shows when you MIGHT need it (no VPN, VLAN isolation, symmetric NAT)
- Defaults to NO
5. PTT configuration
**Server Only (Option 3):**
- Same flow as Full Setup, but without client software or PTT
**Key Improvements:**
- COTURN is now a **separate, explicit** optional step (not buried in wizard)
- Users see clear guidance on when COTURN is actually needed
- VPN is presented as the better alternative
- Default answer is NO for COTURN (safer for users)
- Colors render properly with -e flag
This addresses user feedback that COTURN setup is complex and should be clearly optional, not implied as mandatory.
Fixes:
- Add -e flag to echo statements so BOLD and CYAN colors render properly
- Previously showed raw escape codes like \033[1m instead of formatted text
Clarifications:
- Changed "Full Setup" description from "With FQDN, TLS certs, COTURN, internet calling"
to "Optionally add FQDN, TLS certs, COTURN for internet calling"
- COTURN is NOT mandatory in Full Setup
- It's only configured if user runs Internet/Certificate Setup wizard afterward
User can now see properly formatted menu:
1) Quick Local Setup (Recommended) [in bold]
└─ Local LAN only - PTT, auto-answer, no internet/FQDN
Advanced Options: [in cyan]
2) Full Setup (Server + Client + Internet)
└─ Optionally add FQDN, TLS certs, COTURN for internet calling
Menu Improvements:
- Clarified "Quick Local Setup" as "Local LAN only - no internet/FQDN"
- Renamed "Full" to "Full Setup (Server + Client + Internet)"
- Added detailed descriptions for all install options
- "Server Only" now explains it can optionally include FQDN/internet
- "Client Only" clarifies it connects to existing server
User Experience:
- Added progress message during device addition: "Reloading Asterisk configuration (this may take a moment)..."
- Prevents confusion when dialplan rebuild causes brief delay
- Users now see the script is working, not hanging
This addresses user feedback about menu clarity and apparent hangs during device addition.

- Explains how VPN + internet calling works together:
* Kiosks register via VPN IP
* Asterisk acts as bridge
* External callers use FQDN + port forwarding
3. **PTT CONFIGURATION FIXES**
- PTT now only prompted when client is being installed
- Added to install_full() - installs client
- Added to install_client_only() - installs client
- Quick setup already had it (kept)

- Ensures PTT hardware is only configured where it makes sense
4. **NEW: INTERNET CALLING GUIDE**
- Comprehensive new function: show_internet_calling_guide()
- Added to Server Settings menu (#4)
**Scenario 1: Simple Internet Calling**
- FQDN + port forwarding (5060/5061 + 10000-20000)
- Works for simple NAT
- Explains limitations (symmetric NAT, corporate firewalls)
**Scenario 2: VPN + Internet Calling (RECOMMENDED)**
- Answers the key question: "Can internet users call VPN kiosks?"
- Answer: YES! Here's how:
* Kiosks register to Asterisk via VPN IP
* Internet calls use FQDN → port forward → Asterisk
* Asterisk routes to kiosk via VPN network
* Works even if kiosk is on VLAN 20!
- Explains benefits: No COTURN, works across VLANs, more secure
**Scenario 3: COTURN + VLAN Isolation**
- Explains when you actually need COTURN
- Shows it's only needed if you can't use VPN
- Recommends VPN as simpler and more reliable
5. **PORT REQUIREMENTS UPDATES**
