Install Fail2ban in Asterisk (Centos)

Installing Fail2ban in centos
1.yum install fail2ban
If your CentOS doesn't find the package, please execute the following command and then try again.
2.rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm
3.yum install python iptables
or
wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/fail2ban/fail2ban-stable/fail2ban-0.8.4/fail2ban-0.8.4.tar.bz2?use_mirror=transact

tar -xf fail2ban-0.8.4.tar.bz2

cd fail2ban-0.8.4

python setup.py install

cp files/redhat-initd /etc/init.d/fail2ban

chkconfig --add fail2ban

chkconfig fail2ban on

Once installing the Fail2ban  create asteirsk.conf file under the fail2ban directory

4.  vi /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/asterisk.conf

and copy and paste the below

# ===================
# /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/asterisk.conf
# Fail2Ban configuration file
#
#
# $Revision: 250 $
#
[INCLUDES]
# Read common prefixes. If any customizations available -- read them from
# common.local
#before = common.conf
[Definition]
#_daemon = asterisk
# Option: failregex
# Notes.: regex to match the password failures messages in the logfile.
#The
# host must be matched by a group named "host". The tag "" can
# be used for standard IP/hostname matching and is only an alias
#for
# (?:::f{4,6}:)?(?PS+)
# Values: TEXT
#

failregex = Registration from '.*' failed for '<HOST>(:[0-9]{1,5})?' - Wrong password
            Registration from '.*' failed for '<HOST>(:[0-9]{1,5})?' - No matching peer found
            Registration from '.*' failed for '<HOST>(:[0-9]{1,5})?' - Device does not match ACL
            Registration from '.*' failed for '<HOST>(:[0-9]{1,5})?' - Username/auth name mismatch
            Registration from '.*' failed for '<HOST>(:[0-9]{1,5})?' - Peer is not supposed to register
            NOTICE.* <HOST> failed to authenticate as '.*'$
            NOTICE.* .*: No registration for peer '.*' (from <HOST>)
            NOTICE.* .*: Host <HOST> failed MD5 authentication for '.*' (.*)
            VERBOSE.* logger.c: -- .*IP/<HOST>-.* Playing 'ss-noservice' (language '.*')


# Option: ignoreregex
# Notes.: regex to ignore. If this regex matches, the line is ignored.
# Values: TEXT
#
ignoreregex =
# ===================
Add the [asterisk-iptables] section to your /etc/fail2ban/jail.conf file :
# /etc/fail2ban/jail.conf
#====================



5 .  Save and exit the file
6.   vi /etc/fail2ban/jail.conf
      go to the last line of theis file and paste the below lines there

[asterisk-iptables]
enabled = true
filter = asterisk
action = iptables-allports[name=ASTERISK, protocol=all]
sendmail-whois[name=ASTERISK,
dest=youremailaddress@somewhere.com, sender=fail2ban@somewhere.com]
logpath = /var/log/asterisk/full
maxretry = 5
bantime = 600
#====================


7. Also in /etc/fail2ban/jail.conf file you want to add your own IP address range ( ours is192.168.1.0 ) :
ignoreip = 127.0.0.1 192.168.1.0/24

8.  make the fail2ban to start at startup
     chkconfig fail2ban on
9.  start the fail2ban now
    /etc/init.d/fail2ban start
10 . now check whether the fail2ban is installed properly to detect the attacks
       iptables -L –v
      You should see "fail2ban-ASTERISK" in your iptables output.

11. now try to register a extension from outside with wrong password or worng extension and run the iptables command to see the blocked ip addresses

Time synchronization Error , Vicidial ,Goautodial

Time synchronization Error in vicidial goautodial

there is a problem of time synchronization in your system .please contact administrator

The major cause for the time sync error are

1. The vicidial based system is using  MeetMe conference , These MeetMe Conference Bridge requires a timing resources like  Dahdi or Zaptel.  if they are not loaded poperly then time sync error occurs
2. wrong System timing . different timing in server and agent systems
3. wrong time set for DB time , PHP time , server Time
4. Not updated the New server ip for the vicidial /goautodial 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Troubleshoot 1:

type  "mysqlcheck -u root -pvicidialnow --auto-repair --check --optimize --all-databases"

 once finishes the repair of the MYSQL
 reboot the server and chec.


Troubleshoot 2:

MeetMe Conference dahdi issue

• make sure the dahdi/zaptel driver is installed properly

If you are not using any telephony cards then you need to use the dummy drivers

type:   modprobe dahdi_dummy

          dahdi_cfg -vvvvv

          asterisk  -vvvvvr

          module unload chan_dahdi.so

          module load chan_dahdi.so

• Now login as agent and check whether the problem arises
• For those using asterisk telephone cards like digium , sangoma ,allo use the below links 
• Digium Sangoma

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Troubleshoot 3:

wrong server time

check the server time ,

type  date  in the linux console ,  it will display the current server time.  if the server time and timezone is wrong follow the below commands to change it.

• rm /etc/localtime
• ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Kolkata /etc/localtime
• rdate -s time-a.nist.gov
• chkconfig ntpd on
• ntpdate pool.ntp.org
• /etc/init.d/ntpd start

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Troubleshoot 3:

Check the db time php time from the vicidail report section

          if the time is different for all the three then follow the above trouble shoot and reboot the server.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Troubleshoot 4:

If you have changed your server ip, dont forget to run the ip update script.

type the below command to update

/usr/share/astguiclient/ADMIN_update_server_ip.pl

and follow the onscreen steps , once done reboot the server and login as agent and check .

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Troubleshoot 5

If you have very big setup of vicidial , then Dahdi_dummy will not be sufficient to provide time source , so you can use the Sangoma voice time sync USB stick
