Re: [asterisk-users] Grandtream Conference issue

I haven't been working on CDR's the last few months in favor of other projects that seem a little more urgent. Plus, I have some folks urging me NOT to proceed until some architectural issues are discussed, which might be wise. I have been working on one bug where I did make some substantive changes to how the CDR's are generated, but it is almost certain that these changes will only show up in trunk. I've reached the limit of what I can do in 1.4; it is simply impossible to do anything with CDR's in 1.4 without tearing the very fabric of time and space, and just plain getting everybody upset... at least, those who were not erased from existence by the tear... on a more serious note, the changes are intrusive enough, the behavior changes big enough, that they really don't qualify to be applied to a current release. It's a huge job! My past work was just in the ZAP channel driver code, and because it's so asynch, and all split up into different code, it's really tough to get the right pieces in the right places at the right time in the right way. What this all says is that I'm most likely NOT doing it the right way. And what worries me most is that there might not be any right way. But I'm still new to this, and will get back around to it hopefully fairly soon. murf Hi Steve, Thanks for the update. I agree it's complicated and looks like it does require a look at the design of Asterisk and where CDR's are generated. As you've already documented and lots of us have discovered generating a single CDR for each bridged call is not suitable when CDR's are used for billing and blind and attended transfers are taking place. For any SIP (can't speak for other channels but most likely the same) service providers running Asterisk that are not aware of this problem you will not be getting correct CDR's on blind and attended transfers. Also depending on your dial plan users may be able to send a 302 Redirect response (301 or 302) to an incoming call and get a free outgoing call. This has the potential to cost you money which is very dangerous if any of your users cotton on to it. The easiest way to check your susceptibility is to do call an expensive destination, blind transfer to a free destination and then check the CDRs and pay close attention to the call durations of each CDR. I'll go back to trying to find a way to detect and block dangerous REFER requests at the SIP Proxy before they get to Asterisk. Regards, Aaron Wondering out loud if as the whole CDR defect is looked at, that the issue of blind vs attended transfers should be examined as well. In the rest of the telephony world, there is no difference. It is simply a transfer. An attended ( or announced ) transfer can become a blind transfer simply by the transferrer hanging up. How the original design became what it is is a puzzle, unless the original architect was not too familiar with the time proven practice in PBX systems for many years. Having to differentiate between types of transfer before initiating the transfer is not very user friendly. Once that is corrected will it make fixing the CDR defect easier? In other systems with SMDR/SMDI/CDR the report contains information and timing for the total call, as mostly no one cares who answered the call and then transferred, it is total time that is important for billing.

Re: [asterisk-users] Queue members, URI.
Hi all, sorry to rehash this - but I'm having similar issues. I'm on Asterisk 1.0 and have been using Queues without any problems locally. I mean, all the SIP devices on my local server can be added to queues using AddQueueMember. However, I now need to allow agents from other servers to log in to the queue and I thought I could do this with IAX2/calleridnum or something ..but it doesn't work. The only way I was able to get it to work was by defining them as Local/number@context But this has major drawbacks. They are in the queue and can receive calls -- but when the queue directs a call to them, it loses control over it and calls are just transfered to the one agent and don't timeout the caller in the queue isn't really in the queue anymore... The reason it didn't work with IAX2 was that every time an agent logged in ... Add QueueMember would put them in as IAX2/iaxpeer/random port ... because that's where they were connecting over at that very moment. But the queue is unable to locate them at that same port when an actual call comes into the queue! Since they are always moving around ports under the IAX2 protocol. So using Local works cause it uses the dialplan's intelligence in locating an extension on an iaxpeer -- but it's not really a channel like Zap or Sip ... so queue functionality is lost So I'm revisiting this now --- is there any way to use IAX2 peers as queue members? Maybe I'm writing the URI's wrong Or is this something that has been fixed drasically in asterisk 1.2/1.4 anyone know? Ideas/suggestions appreciated ... -- Chris Earle Thomas Kenyon [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Is there an advantage to having a Queue members URI in the form: SIP/User (or indeed IAX2/User) Over Local/number@context ? I know that the latter will allow you to do things like set counting logic etc. through dialplan operations, but the former appears to be a more direct route to calling the party. (and if need be, there is the ability in queues to run a script on connection iirc).

Asterisk doesn't even have to be running for this to happen, but it can be brought to a halt by unloading the zaphfc module. I'm not aware of any CPU throttling on this system (an AMD Athon running at 1100 MHz). The OS is Debian etch running Linux kernel 2.6.18 (-5-k7). I've installed asterisk and asterisk-bristuff 1.2.13~dfsg-2etch2, as well as zaptel and zaptel-source 1.2.11.dfsg-1 to compile the necessary modules.

The linux modules zaptel, xpp and zaphfc get loaded automatically, but I haven't figured out yet from where.

[asterisk-users] IVR help, please
Hi list. I'm new to IVRs and trying to set up one that toggles an auto-forward flag on or off for specific accounts. I'd like to have my users dial an extension and then be prompted to enter the account number. (done) Next I'd like it to jump to the appropriate line in the dial plan that corresponds to the entered account number (if it is valid) and have it play back the current status based on a quick DB query (i.e. - Acct #1234 is currently 'on'). (done) Then I'd like it to prompt the user to Press 1 to turn forwarding on (or 2 for off), but this is where I get stuck. I can't seem to figure out how to do sub menus. I've Googled and checked the wiki, but I can't seem to find exactly what it is I need. Can anyone advise? Thanks in advance, Jay ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
[asterisk-users] sip.conf realtime
Hi - I'm looking into realtime and I'm having a bit of a problem with the SIP part. My review of the posts seems to indicate that I should use realtime static for the [general] part of my sip.conf including the registration commands: register=did:secret@domain/did context and use realtime realtime (funny name!) for peers and friends: [myprovider] type=peer auth=md5 username=... fromuser=... fromdomain=... secret=... host=... port=5060 nat=yes canreinvite=yes qualify=no disallow=all allow=ulaw dtmfmode=rfc2833 insecure=port,invite context=incoming-sip Is this correct? What's throwing me off is this statment found here:http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk%20RealTime%20Static * NOTE:* You can only store a static config OR a RealTime config. You cannot, for example, store sip.conf and use sipfriends via RealTime. This would suggest that I'll have to do a reload when I add a DiD, but a reload won't be necessary if a new SIP client is added. Do I have it right? Also, what's the difference between a peer and a user? I used to think that a user was an agent authorized to call in to my * box, a peer was an agent I could reach and a freind was both. What's throwing me off now is the statement found here:http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk%20RealTime%20Static With newer versions of Asterisk the concept of SIP 'users' will be phased out. I can't understand this especially in the context of extconfig.conf that uses both a sipuser and sippeer entry. Could someone clarify for me?

If it's via the Internet, then that's where I'd start to look first. If it's via BRI/PRI interface then I'd look at interrupt issues. I'd suggest that the hardware is more than capable if it's set up correctly. But since you mention bandwidth, I'll assume the calls are coming in via that interface - each call will use 80Kb/sec each way (g711). So 5 calls (to make the math easier) is 10 channels of 80Kb/sec each way - so it's only 800Kb/sec each way. Well under your 4Mb limit. However, at 50 packets per second per call (each way), it's 500 packets per second each way - 1000 pps in total... Can your router sustain more than that? Can your ISP deliver more than that? That's where I'd start to look if it's not local hardware issues... Good luck!

Re: [asterisk-users] New voicemail vs. minivm
This system targets a different market... I like Olle's system. He did a good job. Olle's minivm is a great choice for those wishing to build customized voicemail systems, but as the name suggests, the systems are very basic. Large systems are difficult to maintain in the dial plan and some of the functionality we need would be difficult to implement with that approach.

He generally broke down the voicemail functionality to separate apps that could be included in the dialplan to make a voicemail menu. IIRC it lacks support for other backends that app_voicemail currently has. But it is probably much less as messy. I wonder if it won't be a better base for extending.

Gordon http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/articles/Jeremys_Magazine_Articles/Hunting_I_O_Bottlenecks_with_iostat Ah, intersting, so I was about to suggest it might be a distro thing, but digging deeper, I find there is an iostat for Debian - under the generic package sysstat which is why I've never found it in the past. The iostat I remember for BSD had a screen/curses interface, but scrolling might help you see trends.

[asterisk-users] Digium Asterisk Appliance voicemail logs
Does anyone know how much space the appliance has for voicemail and/or logs? Doesn't have an embedded disk from what I can see, and only a 1G flash card? -- Barry D.
