[asterisk-users] Modem bridging on Asterisk (no VoIP involved)
Hi everybody. I know maybe this question has been posted some time ago, but I need your updated opinion on the subject. I'm replacing our old pbx with asterisk. I have two TE207 dual pri (e1) cards on a clustered system (one on each node). I absolutely need to connect 4/5 analog extensions with modems, they're being used for remote assistance on very old systems which cannot be upgraded to native IP links. Is there a good hardware that can bridge the e1 lines on the digium te207 card to my modems? A PCI card? An external box? I don't want to relay modem connections over ip, I just need to bridge them internally on the asterisk server: E1 == TE207 == Asterisk == (some hardware with FXS) == modems TIA for your replies. -- Alberto Pastore B-Press Srl - Gruppo MSoft P.IVA 01697420030 P.le Lombardia, 4 - 28100 Novara - Italy Tel. 0321-499508 Fax 0321-492974 http://www.msoft.it ___ -- 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

Re: [asterisk-users] Rotating CDR records inside mysql - anyone does it?
Thanks. I have about 1 million records, but my machine is not so good. Its a core2 duo with 2 Gig of RAM. When I do only select it takes a few seconds, but some of my reports require joins, and thats a big problem. Thiago Well, i wouldn't recommend delete, as that would keep mysql very unhappy. you could do RENAME TABLE and CREATE TABLE, or mysqldump and TRUNCATE TABLE, but they have to happen almost instantly (without asterisk trying to do INSERT). I have nearly none experience with transactions, but probably those would be helpful. Btw, you can block access to mysql by firewall (to move existing data) or stop mysql (to physycally copy binary database files) and then take it back up - asterisk will post it's CDRs later when db comes accessible. Btw - how many records do you have that it gets slow? On what machine? I currently have 3 million CDR records in MySQL with well created indexes - and most reports are dynamic. Usually from 0 to 2 seconds, but sometimes up to minute for joins :p. Well, that's 2x Quad core xeons of 3GHz and 8Gb RAM (2 of which are used by MySQL indexes). Asterisk is running on same machine.

Re: [asterisk-users] Free IAX / SIP Softphone with attended transfer
Zoiper is pretty impressive, it's a simple, neat little client. The one problem I have with it is the keyboard. I've had problems trying to use the keyboard to send DTMF on the current call. The left hand popout keypad is also a little small for my users' taste. It would be nice to have a keyboard hang-up, something like ESC, ditto for things like cancel buttons around the app. I really like the fact it does both SIP and IAX. Onto sillier issues: the icon is nice, but it would be great to have proper gamma anti-aliasing on the mac one. Just my .02 on the free mac os version, I might have to check out the biz edition too. It's all looking good. Good luck with the next release!

Sometimes break is created when ISDN party hangup, which means that all the conference went OK. It's now anymore possible to enter conferences or to call voicemails _from any device_: on CLI we see that everything is OK, but silence. Calling from a device to another, SIP iAX or ISDN, is working. Only solution to get it work again is to restart Asterisk. The problem appears since this week when we updated from an old SVN version (05/2007).

[asterisk-users] Asterisk scalability
Hello, I wonder how Asterisk scales when we increment the Core's or CPU's of one computer. I see that Asterisk is only one process (I guess that it uses threads). But because Asterisk is only one process, this process is always executed in the same CPU. So we can have a 8 Cores server, with one Core running Asterisk, another Core running operating system stuff/other small daemons and 6 idle cores. Is this correct? Why not? If this is correct, increasing CPU number of Asterisk server box would not increase the performance. I don't see any other process that could use other Cores (like transcoding processes, executing dialplan, etc.) Thank you for your information, -- Carles Pina i EstanyGPG id: 0x8CBDAE64 http://pinux.info Manresa - Barcelona ___ -- 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

Because it is multi-threaded it can run on multiple cores/CPU's at a time. I don't know the internals of Asterisk that well so I can't site specific examples, but I know that there are some scalability bottlenecks people are looking at, specifically with the IAX protocol and how the threads send/receive packets. I'm sure that an Asterisk developer can chime in and give several examples of how Asterisk uses its threads to increase scalability. That said, there will be a point where the number of core/CPU's won't be the bottleneck so adding more won't help anything.

Re: [asterisk-users] Free IAX / SIP Softphone with attended transfer
Ok good piece software easy on the eyes as they say and I have to say this before I start listing a lot of things that I would love to see, for it to be usable as a good high performance phone. Working with industrial pc switchboards and soft phones of various vendors for some years now, and it all boils down to. How much functionality you can boil into the keyboard. No mouse action should be needed to search a number add an F-key for it. No mouse action should be needed to dial or transfer a number. No mouse action should be needed unless absolutely unavoidable. A_PARTY = caller B_PARTY = operator / called person C_PARTY = number to transferred to STATES: Example to keep it within the numeric key-pad when you receive a call and transfer it. STEP 1 A call is presented. LINE_STATE: Ringing TRANSFER_STATE: inactive TALKING_TO_STATE: inactive STEP 2 Press numeric enter to pick up call. LINE_STATE: CONNECTED_A_PARTY TRANSFER_STATE: inactive TALKING_TO_STATE: A_PARTY STEP 3 Transfer the call Scenario 1: Search out the number in the phonenbook by pressing ex: F10, while talking to the caller, the phone book appears search by name, number or whatever is available and mark the number with arrow keys and dial with NUM-enter. Scenario 2 Press enter a new dial box appears. Type in the number to call. Press enter. LINE_STATE: CONNECTED_A_PARTY TRANSFER_STATE: CALLING_C_PARTY TALKING_TO_STATE: DIALBACKTONE STEP 4 The person transferring the call can now make a choice either to do a attended transfer or a blind transfer. Scenario Blind transfer: Simply pressing NUM-enter should do a blind transfer, and the call handling is done and all states are reset, C_PARTY becomes the B_PARTY and so on. The phone is ready for a new call. LINE_STATE: inactive TRANSFER_STATE: inactive TALKING_TO_STATE: inactive Scenario: Attended transfer: The person transferring the call can talk to the C_PARTY LINE_STATE: CONNECTED_A_PARTY TRANSFER_STATE: CONNECTED_C_PARTY TALKING_TO_STATE: C_PARTY Should the operator wish for switching back do the previous call that currently placed on hold it could be done by pressing the NUM+ key placing the C_PARTY on hold and reconnecting the A_PARTY LINE_STATE: CONNECTED_A_PARTY TRANSFER_STATE: CONNECTED_C_PARTY TALKING_TO_STATE: A_PARTY Switch back by NUM+ LINE_STATE: CONNECTED_A_PARTY TRANSFER_STATE: CONNECTED_C_PARTY TALKING_TO_STATE: C_PARTY Connect the call by NUM-enter at any point talking to either the A_PARTY or C_PARTY. The call handling is done and all states are reset, C_PARTY becomes the B_PARTY and so on. The phone is ready for a new call. LINE_STATE: inactive TRANSFER_STATE: inactive TALKING_TO_STATE: inactive Scenario: disconnect the party you are talking to Press NUM- If the states are as follows. LINE_STATE: CONNECTED_A_PARTY TRANSFER_STATE: CONNECTED_C_PARTY TALKING_TO_STATE: C_PARTY The C_PARTY would be disconnected and the states would go to. LINE_STATE: CONNECTED_A_PARTY TRANSFER_STATE: inactive TALKING_TO_STATE: A_PARTY And the here we go again with a new transfer or a goodbye and hang up with NUM-. Some side notes: The calling transfer functions are already in the phone alle that needs to be done is associate the functions to the states and numeric keys. The features could be activated by putting the phone in operator mode, if this was the case you could turn of the DTMF and just start typing the new number and hit NUM-enter twice to transfer the call fast. 1 enter to dial number the other to transfer. DTMF could be turned of since the operator rarely calls any ivr, that needs a DTMF response, if so you could leave dtmf open on the QWERTY number keys HEX 30 31 33 34 so on. A tcp port on the phone that allowed for picking up calls and hanging up calls, and perhaps being able to read the number status would make is possible for people write some very nice callcenter agent software for this phone, without having to worry about the functionality of a phone in their agent software. These things might be on the table already if so happy days and then I can't wait to see the product then. Shw that was a little longer than expected. Just my way to keep it simple :), but I hope this could the first really good sip phone with switchboard properties out there.

[asterisk-users] app_txfax
Hello, I'm setting up Asterisk to send outgoing faxes over a PRI line. I installed app_txfax and its prerequisites and astfax to submit email messages to Asterisk. This all seems to work fine, but I get some error messages in my logs I don't understand. Whenever I send a fax it goes through fine, but I get these messages in the logs: [Jan 17 11:21:07] WARNING[2413] chan_zap.c: Unable to request echo training on channel 1 [Jan 17 11:21:13] WARNING[2413] pbx.c: Zap/1-1 already has a call record??

Also, app_txfax will retry the fax a few times before giving up. I'd like to know when it gives up, so I can let the fax sender know that it didn't go through. Is there a way to hook into that? I'm using Asterisk 1.4.17 with spandsp 0.0.4, tx_fax from agx-ast-addons 1.4.3, and astfax 1.0. It's running on Debian Sarge (4.0) with Debian-supplied kernel 2.6.18. I'm using a Digium TE110P card with zaptel driver 1.4.7.1. Thanks for any ideas!

Hello, On Jan/23/2008, Ryan Burke wrote: I wonder how Asterisk scales when we increment the Core's or CPU's of one computer. I see that Asterisk is only one process (I guess that it uses threads).

I don't know the internals of Asterisk that well so I can't site specific examples, but I know that there are some scalability bottlenecks people are looking at, specifically with the IAX protocol and how the threads send/receive packets. thanks for information. To give some more details, is we execute: ps auxwm We can see that Asterisk is using quite many threads (33 threads in a mainly new Asterisk installation) I'm sure that an Asterisk developer can chime in and give several examples of how Asterisk uses its threads to increase scalability. That said, there will be a point where the number of core/CPU's won't be the bottleneck so adding more won't help anything. Yes, I see that it uses threads.

The features could be activated by putting the phone in operator mode, if this was the case you could turn of the DTMF and just start typing the new number and hit NUM-enter twice to transfer the call fast. 1 enter to dial number the other to transfer. DTMF could be turned of since the operator rarely calls any ivr, that needs a DTMF response, if so you could leave dtmf open on the QWERTY number keys HEX 30 31 33 34 so on.

Googling said that it should work, but we are seeing real strange things here: - tcpdump reveals the nokia is talking to other ports than 5060 - registration is not possible at all, right now there is no network traffic to the asterisk box at all. A softphone on the same wlan segment registers without any problem. The how-tos on the web suggest different settings concerning the proxy/registration setupBut none of them works for us. But we are not nokia guys at all So, any help greatly appreciated! The setup: Cisco AP with EAP-TLS. Connected to an switch on which several vlans are connected to a cisco router. The internal network (192.168.23.0/24) talks to the DMZ, on which the radius (for EAP-TLS) and also the asterisk box is hosted. IP Addresses are assigned via DHCP from the AP. The Laptop from which i am writing has x-lite installed and that works just fine with the same credentials we are trying to setup the nokia: 2001 abc sipgate No RFC3581 We have been playing with nat=yes|no, but we cant get it to work.
