I've been trying to make outbound callerid work via flowroute to no

this work? This is for Asterisk 1.4.44.

Re: [asterisk-users] Replacing PBX with Asterisk, need feedback on my new architecture.

2012-05-11 Thread Alex Balashov
Are you certain that this wouldn't be an issue if the phones had low 
re-registration intervals?  Historically, I've seen the Asterisk registrar 
faceplant with throughput in excess of 5-7 registrations/sec, though I have no 
idea as to whether that holds true of newer releases.

 800 SIP phones on one server? I wouldn't want to do it. Add a SIP proxy

 at the start, as it will allow you to increase resources more easily.
 
 As has already been pointed out by others in this thread, 800 phones on a 
 single Asterisk server (using Asterisk 1.8.x or later and a decent spec 
 server) is really no problem. If all of those phones are going to be 
 subscribing to hints for a dozen or more of the other phones, then yes, that 
 could be an issue, as the amount of NOTIFY traffic would be quite high... but 
 for registration and normal calling, even if all these phones were in use at 
 once, I would not expect any issues at all due to performance.
 
 The other comments about being able to take down a server for maintenance and 
 not lose calling ability are certainly worth taking into consideration as 
 well, but if your planned deployment would allow for reasonable scheduled 
 maintenance windows, even that wouldn't justify the complexity of adding in 
 one SIP proxy (or a pair of them) to the equation.

 We've gone away from VMs altogether.

I use openVZ to run multiple asterisks on the same server. This works
well and has done for some time. But currently once a week for about
10-15 minutes calls sound like packetloss/jitter occurs. But a week of
traffic captures is heavy... So I need to automate this.

  

 To monitor the traffic, you can use voipmonitor.org
 http://voipmonitor.org


 We purchased the commercial version with a GUI and will tell you that
 the cost/benefit is very clear.  Great tool, pretty cheap ($1k I
 think).  Responsive support.

Sounds very reasonable. Do you run this on a dedicated server, and
configured the switch to duplicate the traffic to the quality server? Or
do you run this on the same server as asterisk?

Thanks for the suggestions!

In asterisk 1.8, it is not more possible to use DeadAGI?

Also, I found the below commands in the a2billing and I would to ask why it 
set the sequence 1 for the Hangup()? Maybe because it is related to the NoOp? 
How?

[a2billing-callingcard]
exten = _X.,1,NoOp(A2Billing Start)
exten = _X.,n,Answer()
exten = _X.,n,Wait(2)
exten = _X.,n,DeadAgi(a2billing.php,1)
exten = _X.,1,Hangup()

From the other hand, what is the benifit of using NoOp here? Because I tried 
it without NoOp and it was working?

 Hi,

 this question is not Asterisk specific, but since there are so many
 experts present on this list, maybe its OK to ask anyways.

 I'm having a hard time normalizing rate sheets from different providers.
 What I mean with this: the goal is to always get the cheapest rate for a
 given destination. What I would like to do is throw like 10 rate sheets
 from different providers together and as output get a single rate sheet
 with only the cheapest rates. However, some providers are listing a
 country, lets say Germany, as code 49 with a specific rate, and another
 provider will list each city individually, and each code separately, e.g.
 Berlin 4930, Hamburg 4940 etc., and probably different cities have
 different rates as well. Now, if the 49 route of the first provider is
 cheaper, my system (a2billing) will still use the more expensive 4930
 code because it is more specific.

 I'm looking for some awesome, smart tool that will automatically
 normalize all these code differences and output a clean ratesheet with
 only the cheapest rates.

 Does such a thing exist? I wonder how everyone else is normalizing their
 different rate sheets. With a homebrewn script?

 Thanks!


Markus,

you're not the first person and certainly not the last person who's ever
asked about this. I had tried this on several mailing lists a little while
ago.  A tool that could handle 10 or maybe even 5 provider rate-sheets all
of which can potentially completely differ in formats from each other. Even
worse are the rate update sheets from each provider which are many a times
different from the initial rate sheets that the provider may have given you
and then again they will differ from the rate updates from the remaining 4
providers you've just painstakingly inserted into your DB.

Given the popularity of Asterisk and other popular OSS based telephony
platforms with several successful businesses running 100s of millions of
minutes, you'd think at least a few have sorted this problem out. But I
believe those who have, never respond to these emails as it took them quite
a bit of effort to create such a tool and aren't willing to just give it
away.

Just what I have observed (and was even blatantly told by someone on some
mailing list, can't remember exactly)

You may have to advertise in the commercial / business list or offer a
bounty. There are several commercial solutions available but I think they
all come as a feature of a larger billing/rating/routing platform

Are you absolutely sure that nothing is coming out, even on a different

Asterisk server and not the receiving host?

Secondly, are you absolutely positive that something is supposed to be coming 
out?  183 does not logically imply or mandate backward early media, though 
183+SDP is generally used as a convention to indicate that it is about to be

Re: [asterisk-users] Routing premature media to the calling channel

2012-03-25 Thread Alex Balashov
As far as I know, this is not the general tendency of any B2BUA that generates 
such media independently.  However, I could be mistaken.

 I think I may have misunderstood your initial question, sorry.

 You are looking for Asterisk to directly pass through the early media from
 upstream? Why would it do that?

 The asterisk box has only one interface. I am capturing all the traffic on

 Obviously if I set progressinband=yes, then I get the ringing tone from
 the asterisk box, but no the audio from the provider I was looking for.

 Are you absolutely sure that nothing is coming out, even on a different
 interface than the one on which you are capturing? Are you capture on the
 Asterisk server and not the receiving host?

 Secondly, are you absolutely positive that something is supposed to be
 coming out? 183 does not logically imply or mandate backward early media,
 though 183+SDP is generally used as a convention to indicate that it is
 about to be sent.

 I assume you have ruled out NAT and firewall issues?

 Between those two, 99% of the reasons why something may not be routed
 somewhere correctly are accounted for.

 If you donapos;t know, your best bet is to take a packet capture or SIP
 debug on the Asterisk server and find out where that early media is going.

 Hello,
 I have a problem with premature media and inband progress audio. I am
 using the latest 1.8.10.1 and this is the setup:

 soft phone --- asterisk --- SIP provider

 The number I call is giving back some hints via inband audio I am not
 able to ear from the soft phone. They stop on the asterisk and are not
 routed down the path to the sip phone.

 The SIP part is simple:

 soft phone - asterisk: INVITE

 asterisk - soft phone: TRYING

 asterisk - provider: INVITE

 asterisk - soft phone: 180 RINGING

 provider - asterisk: 183 SESSION PROGRESS

 provider - asterisk: AUDIO

 Unfortunately the AUDIO received from the provider by the asterisk box
 is not sent to the soft phone.

 I think I have tried every combination of progressinband and
 prematuremedia, without success.

 How can I made the audio received from the provider to the asterisk be
 transmitted to the soft phone?

 Thank you

 Leandro

 I would be more interested in a system where quality routes are tested with

 placed or if a destination is a fake one. We have seen many fake destinations 
 with top tier providers but they had the best rates so the strategy to pick 
 them first really didn't work.
 
 So, maybe a subscription service where a dialler system continuously tests 
 routes with a list of 10 providers so that it's established which routes 
 actually work and then allow that data to be downloaded for usage.

Re: [asterisk-users] Force sip peers to re register

2012-03-04 Thread Alex Balashov
No, only endpoints decide when to retry registration attempts.  If the 
registration info is your only means of knowing how to reach those peers from 
Asterisk, and that information is still valid at a given time, it wouldn't make 
much sense to force them to reregister, would it? :-) And if the information is 
invalid, you have no means of reaching them for the purpose of executing such a 
remote trigger, even if it did exist.  

The only thing you can do is lower the  registration interval Asterisk asks of 
the phones.

Hey Alex,

Just a piece of advice.  Many or most people do not know the real
definition of ghetto and take it as a negative, poor, racial, black,
connotation.

Your vocabulary and and ability to articulate correctly can get you in
trouble sometimes.

Anyone that thinks that the word Ghetto means anything above, or a
racial slur should look up the true definition.

It isn't even an insult to the Asterisk Community.  By definition, the
Asterisk Community is an online Ghetto.

Just wanted to clear that up before someone tries to label you.

Re: [asterisk-users] SDP Issue

2012-01-24 Thread Alex Balashov
I wasn't so much poking fun at the substance of your post as the fact that 
you're the only person on this mailing list that posts with a pseudonym, and at 
that, one evocative of online gaming or forum environments.  It just doesn't 
fit with the culture or the relatively serious, substantive and adult-oriented 
tenor of this type of list.  Do you not notice that?  

At the risk of being rude, --[ UxBoD ]-- is something that belongs in WoW or 
a phpBB board full of spotty adolescents. 

If your real name is Phil, why not post as such?  Okay, so maybe you don't want 
to give out your surname for one reason or another--fair enough.  So, post as 
Phil, or Phil D., if your full name were Phil Deleterious.  

There's no rule saying you have to.  However, the survival of most human social 
institutions, including those devoted to the exchange of knowledge, is upheld 
in part by adherence to some conventions of self-presentation and deportment.  
These conventions help delineate the identity and character of the venue to 
outsiders, and assist in self-knowledge and affirmation of that character 
internally. 

Everyone else here posts with their full name because it communicates: I am a 
real, adult person solving real-world technical problems related to Asterisk. 
It is, at least in part, an affirmation of the fact that real 
personalities--real humans, real identities--underlie participation in Internet 
forums, especially specialised ones.  It is also a nod to the benificent 
academic origins of the Internet.  There are reasons for these conventions.  
They encapsulate our creation mythos, and they tell us what kind of people we 
are, as a community.  

Quite frankly, your From: display name spits on the pedigree, on the storied 
heritage of how this open-source community came to be.  It is not deferential 
to the accrued wisdom of Internet-focused technical specialists in areas such 
as Asterisk or IP telephony, and it does not hallow the ground on which we 
tread.  It says that the ROFLcopter has landed!!!111 and lol p0wned teh n00bs.  

Except, you're being the n00b.  Come on, Phil.  Self-awareness is important.  I 
know I am being a self-important ass pontificating on this to you.  Are you 
okay with an ASCII art pseudonym that says, I'm a 14 year old playing WoW on a 
delapidated, slightly yellowed Windows tower draped in dirty underwear?  If 
not for you, why not for us?  Please post with a real name.

Custom SIP headers are a common way to do that.  Try SIPAddHeader().

That would be a proxy configuration issue, wouldn't it?

In principle, the proxy should be passing these messages through 
unmodified, unless you have an explicit configuration directive that 
instructs it to remove headers from the INVITE.

2011-11-16 Thread Alex Balashov

But what is the correct physical setup of a CLEC.


There is no correct physical setup.  The setups vary as much as 
anything else does, and are shaped mainly by the purpose of the CLEC 
and the range of products it provides.



Do you get rack space at a carrier hotel and equipment in there?


CLECs that provide a substantial range of business-class voice and 
data services usually have quite a bit of equipment and either end up 
building out their own telco-grade data center somewhere (which can be 
synergistic for many of them since they are also data center operators 
in general), or renting a cage in a carrier hotel.


There are CLECs whose equipment can functionally fit into a single 
rack, or even less, but those are the specialised, single-track ones 
that mainly exist to support the back side of some VoIP product.  In 
cases where only one or two racks are involved, a carrier hotel is 
indeed a common venue.



Do you get rack space at the local ILEC CO?; which is Verizon
here.


Yes, but _only_ for the purpose of colocating equipment that is 
related to backhaul and CFA, i.e. to providing services out of that CO 
and dragging the last-mile loops to the customer out of the CO and 
onto your private network.


A CO and the equipment allowed it is a very restrictive and regulated 
environment full of equipment certification criteria and obscure 
rules.  It will seem especially restrictive if you're used to working 
with commodity PC hardware and open-source;  virtually nothing of the 
sort is allowed to be colocated in a CO.


Also, keep in mind that COs generally have 23 telco racks (not 19 
data racks) and supply -48V DC, or, at best, 220V AC.


Space in a busy metro CO is very expensive.  You really don't want to 
think of it as a general-purpose colocation facility.  That's not what 
it's for.



What are the types of voice platforms used by CLECs?


The answer to that varies a great deal depending on the services being 
provided.  But in general, CLECs use converged softswitches that offer 
them the combination of 1) TDM facilities and Class 4 routing features 
they need, along with (obviously) SS7 support and support for more 
obscure protocols that become very important in CLEC land, such as 
H.248/MEGACO, MGCP, etc. and 2) Class 5 subscriber features and 
applications so they can sell business lines, hosted PBX, etc.


CLECs generally are looking for all of that in one chassis, with the 
obvious redundancy implications as well.  They want something that 
they can connect to the ILEC tandems while simultaneously supporting 
constructs as high-level as voicemail or find-me-follow-me.


Common platforms in the wild:

- MetaSwitch (Class 4/5)
- Sonus (rather Class 4 and IP-oriented)
- Lucent Compact Switch - formerly Telica (quite Class 4)
- Taqua
- Excel
- Tekelec

Broadsoft and Cisco BTS (not so much anymore) figures every heavily 
into this, but they're slightly different animals than the rest.


That's just the formulaic stuff.  The big CLECs have all sorts of 
custom stuff, such as Level3's famed Lucent TNT Max-based Viper 
network and corresponding media gateway control/signaling gateways.

Re: [asterisk-users] Becoming a CLEC

2011-11-14 Thread Alex Balashov
Worst reason to become a CLEC: improved cost structure.  Or, to be 
precise, it is a counterfactual reason, because it does not result in 
improved cost structure.


This idea is driven by an incomplete understanding of what being a 
CLEC entails, or, for the less critically thoughtful, the free lunch 
fallacy.  There is no free lunch.  There is no such thing as an 
easy-peasy regulatory reclassification that gets you the same stuff 
you were paying before, but more cheaply.


Becoming a CLEC is a totally different business model than the one 
you're in, and it entails magnitudinally more technological and 
regulatory complexity.  It's really almost a different vertical.  You 
should become a CLEC only if you want to become a CLEC, not if you 
want to be an ITSP with a lower cost basis, because you won't be.  It 
is a very capital-intensive, non-trivial endeavour with high barriers 
to entry for a good reason.  There will be people out there who will 
tell you that those barriers are low;  they are on the bridge of 
failing CLECs, treading water.

On 11/14/2011 07:56 PM, Douglas Mortensen wrote:


I think that you actually should be looking to your state. I’m
pretty sure that even if CLEC is an FCC designation, it is
implemented either on a per-state or per-LATA basis. Here in NM
there’s only 1 LATA, which is why I’m not completely sure. But I
believe that the CLEC qualifications  designation is actually
managed by the State of NM where I am. One of the state departments
had all of the info  seemed to be in charge.


CLECs are certified on the state level, by state public utility 
regulators, in most states known as the state PUC (public utilities 
commission).


Being creatures of the local loop, interconnection with the ILEC is 
something that takes place separately in every LATA, often on somewhat 
different terms even within the same state.


Negotiating a viable ICA (interconnection agreement) with the ILEC is 
one of the most important elements of success or failure, and is a 
massive endeavour of both personal scholarship and legal expenditure. 
 The details of the agreement - most opt-in agreements are hundreds 
of pages long - are ones by which CLECs live or die, especially if 
they are doing a lot of local access, intra-LATA origination, or UNE 
facilities.



And even if there is more paperwork, reporting, red tape, etc.
there are also some MAJOR discounts to be had on circuits due to
the regulation that is placed on the ILECs to foster competition.
They hate it. But it’s not going to change any time in the
foreseeable future.


Yeah, discounts are nice.  UNE DS1s in LATA 438 are $44/mo.  Many 
people lick their chops at such a prospect.


What these prices don't take into account is the up-front and 
recurring cost of:


- CO backhaul (usually dark fiber of your own, sometimes ILEC fiber).

- CO colocation - expensive, requires third-party vendors, and plenty 
of insurance.


- CFA (circuit facilities assignment) - your cross-connects for UNE 
handoff in the CO.


- EELs for dragging circuits out of COs in which you aren't colocated; 
 you won't go into all of them, it's expensive.


- COs where UNE pricing discipline is suspended because of the ILEC's 
finding of sufficient competition, in favour of special access.


Amortise the up-front and recurring monthly cost of all those pain 
points and see what your new discounted rates are.

Well it doesn't seem to be having too big an impact on load or cpu
usage.

Any pointers on where I can do any further digging?


Take a capture and see what kind of SIP flow is causing it:

   tcpdump -i any -A -w capture.pcap -s 0 -n 'udp port 5060'

After you're reasonably sure a few of those errors have occurred, hit 
Ctrl+C to stop the capture.  Then, open up capture.pcap in Wireshark 
and see what's what, and/or get someone who knows a lot about SIP to 
help you.

Re: [asterisk-users] Peer and User Clarification

2011-10-23 Thread Alex Balashov
All endpoints are peers, in the broad sense of entities in sip.conf. This 
includes phones, gateways, provider endpoints, etc.  

When a phone makes a call through an Asterisk server, it initiates a call leg 
to Asterisk, which is matched to a sip.conf peer.  Asterisk then initiates a 
second call leg through another sip.conf peer, and bridges the two legs 
together.  Both are anchored by peers.

The type of the peer (the type= setting) is a configuration detail that 
changes some minor aspects of how the endpoint is treated, but whether the type 
is friend, peer, etc. it's still a peer. They are largely the same.

 Hello All,
 
 It seems from the Asterisk documentation, a User places phone calls
 into the Asterisk server and a Peers accepts phone calls from the
 Asterisk server.
 
 However, according to the document describing the register =

 an Asterisk system.  Is this correct and how is this working?

 Hello!
 
 I want to thank everyone who helped me out with tips for load balancing 
 asterisk machines in a cluster.
 
 I have encountered a new problem that is related to SIP diversion headers in 
 the INVITE.
 
 I make calls through the manager interface and now want to add a 
 SIP-Diversion header that changes the CallerID of a number that is not 
 available on the trunk, the CallerID to be visible externally is connected to 
 an external customer service hired by another company.
 
 My question:
 How can I add this header in a originateaction call via AMI?
 
 
 Does the originated calls go through any context where I can add this header 
 with dialplan functions like AddSipHeader() or is it possible to do this 
 directly in the OriginateAction through AMI?
 
  
 
  
 
 Example from voip-info:
 
  
 
 [macro-diversion-header]
 exten = s,1,SIPAddHeader(Diversion: 
 tel:+{ARG1}\;reason=user=busy\;screen=no\;privacy=off)

Re: [asterisk-users] invite authentication error !?

2011-09-30 Thread Alex Balashov
This is just a speculative shot in the dark, but remember that the domain of 
the From URI is important, and that the authentication realm (domain) is part 
of the authentication credentials.  So, what you have in your 'fromdomain' and 
'host' settings on the peer does matter.

Uh... OK. Isn't this a From tag:

No, that's a From URI.

A From tag is a header parameter that is appended to the URI, 
delimited by a semicolon:


   From: sip:p...@xx.xx.xx.xx;tag=abc123xyz

Although, RFC 3261 Section 12.1.1 (UAS behavior) does seem to 
contradict me:


   A UAS MUST be prepared to receive a request without a tag in
   the From field, in which case the tag is considered to have
   a value of null.

However, it goes on to say:

   This is to maintain backwards compatibility with RFC 2543,
   which did not mandate From tags.

In other words, a non-backward-compatible 3261 implementation will 
always generate From tags for all requests.

My guess is that this attack presumes you are running a web GUI such

A more sophisticated variant of that would embed script tags and a

If I see someone with an Asterisk RTT of ~200 ms in 'sip show peers',

Some sort of failure to match the proxy to the sip.conf peer.

We do it by having the proxy rewrite the Contact header somewhat 
steganographically.  For instance, if the REGISTER comes into the proxy 
with a Contact of sip:s...@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:5060, we extract those URI 
particles and do:


  remove_hf(Contact);
  append_hf(Contact: sip:s+xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:5060\r\n);

  (s, xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx and 5060 are filled in by PVs)

On the inbound leg, the request URI of the initial INVITE is parsed and 
these elements are selected back out.

Re: [asterisk-users] REGISTER forwarding problem

2011-08-04 Thread Alex Balashov
It doesn't consider the OpenSIPS host an authorised peer, so it's simply 
issuing the usual 401 challenge.


Also, Asterisk doesn't currently support the Path extension, and you 
can't use Record-Route in REGISTERs.  If you want your proxy to stay in 
the loop of subsequent traffic, you will need to come up with some way 
to get Asterisk to reach the UA through it.

Hello,

I have a following setup: UA  opensips  REGISTER  asterisk
userdb, where opensips forwards register requests.

For some reasons Asterisk 1.6.2.18 doesn't want to accept REGISTER
forwarded through opensips.

Here is SIP trace http://pastebin.com/ebV62r7b .

What can possibly cause this behaviour?

Can you elaborate as to what you mean by really bad?  What acoustic

Are you testing from a mobile phone?  Cell phones use variable bit

strength and other factors.  Anything is going to sound like crap on 
them regardless.  Make sure you are testing from a reasonable endpoint.

Re: [asterisk-users] Why no traction for Windows version?

2011-07-26 Thread Alex Balashov
I think the real answer has mostly to do with the fact that no serious person, 
in their right mind, would run Windows in a server role in 2011.  Not unless 
their hands are tied by legacy systems or big-corporate IT logic.  

Asterisk is firmly intended to run on servers.  It's not a desktop app.

Re: [asterisk-users] NAT yes

2011-07-26 Thread Alex Balashov

In a no natted environment if I letnat=yes on sip.conf it would
cause some thing bad or it is irrelevant ? Anybody know ?


There is no harm unless the endpoint you are dealing with does not do 
symmetric RTP.  The nat=yes option assumes that it is okay to send RTP 
back to the source port from which it originated, irrespectively of 
what's in the SDP.  This will cause one-way audio if the endpoint 
happens to want to receive RTP on a different port than the one it is 
sending it from.


Almost all endpoints these days do symmetric RTP, though, so it's not 
a huge concern.


That said, from a methodological and aesthetic perspective, it is 
better not to break standard RFC-compliant behaviour unnecessarily. 
Thus, I would not enable nat=yes unless there really is no direct 
network and transport-layer reachability to the endpoint.

Only way to cope with hackers would be that Digium comes to its
senses and accepts to disable any response to a REGISTER whose

code and it would save millions of $$$. Not only because the

No, because that's absolutely ridiculous.  The proper, RFC-compliant 
behaviour is to return an authentication failure in response to 
invalid credentials.  This mechanism is relied upon for legitimate 
functionality, such as letting the UAs of intended users know that 
they are sending incorrect credentials.


As was pointed out before, Asterisk is a mostly application-level 
construct.  Applications usually have some rudimentary means of 
self-defense such as ACLs, but applications are often conceptually 
distinct from the most appropriate means of securing them.  That's 
what firewalls, SBCs, intrusion detection systems, etc. are for.


Your position is equivalent to saying that stock SSH should not return 
authentication errors for invalid passwords.  The proper solution to 
dictionary attacks is to firewall the SSH service, use RSA keys, VPNs, 
etc., not to tell the maintainers of the OpenSSH project to come to 
its senses.

I would have to err on the side of CDR to say that the only difference
in analogy you provided (SSH vs Asterisk) is that people lose much

security won't harm specially if it's provided as an

Again:

_Applications are often conceptually distinct from the most 
appropriate means of securing them._


Moreover, as Kevin Fleming pointed out, refraining from responding to 
invalid credentials while continuing to responding to valid ones 
simply shifts the presentation of the information, from the point of 
view of the scanner.  It doesn't accomplish your goal at all.



After-all, RFC does stand for Referral For Comment as in always
open to be improved.


Adopted ones are standards to be followed.

You're right, though;  the IETF SIP working group welcomes incremental 
improvements;  submit yours and see what they think.  If you get your 
draft adopted, I am sure Digium would be more than happy to implement 
it in chan_sip.



I think it's a good idea if such a security option is provided by
default in Asterisk knowing it can save a lot of headache. If
budget is an issue maybe make it a bounty and watch support pouring
in...


The issue is not lack of resources, but rather that it's conceptually 
incorrect behaviour, and that the UAS is the wrong place to solve this 
problem.


The best advice that has been given in relation to this topic so far 
came from Lee Howard earlier today:

2011-07-22 Thread Alex Balashov
Asterisk does not expose low-level control of its SIP stack.  It's something 
intended to be configured and used at the application level.

If you really want to do this without a firewall, put a Kamailio proxy in front 
of your Asterisk install and drop things as you see fit.  But why go through 
the trouble?  What's wrong with iptables?

 I really thought Asterisk might have this built in as a feature.
 
 
 I can't even do a dialplan search for a registered PEER because even if I

These are internally generated, so there is no way to modify them

Re: [asterisk-users] Multiple Asterisk Sessions on same machine

Actually, you can do this with one installation of Asterisk, and a
separate set of config files and data directories. When the Asterisk
executable is started, the '-C' option can be used to point to an
asterisk.conf file; that file can then tell it where all the other
config files and the data directories are located.

If you are using one of the init scripts, then yes, that would need to
be duplicated and modified.


How, do you suppose, would the complexity of that compare to chrooting 
two installations?

if you're running iptables, you can set up a pretty simple rule to
forward your additional port to 5060.

http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-port-redirection-with-iptables/

remember UDP vs TCP.


I don't think that's going to work, for two reasons:

1) REDIRECT targets are stateless, aren't they?

That would mean that Asterisk would behave as if the request were sent 
to 5060, and would, of course, respond from 5060 regardless.


If the redirecting entity were a separate host, an additional SNAT 
rule could be applied to fix it in the other direction, too.  But 
since it's the same host, that would cause all outgoing traffic sent 
by Asterisk from 5060 to be mangled, which is not the intended effect.


2) SIP, as a protocol, has the somewhat dubious distinction of 
incorporating network and transport-layer reachability information 
straight into the message.  Since your iptables rule is not SIP-aware, 
it would cause any references to IPs and ports used for URI targeting, 
etc. to stay constant, and thus sabotage your purpose.


So, for instance, if Asterisk provides a final reply to an INVITE 
request with a Contact URI of sip:abc...@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:5060, that 
is where the external UAC would send sequential requests, not 5061 or 
whatever.  That's clearly not what you want.

iptables is just a user-space configuration interface to the Linux

structures to ensure that packet forwarding rules are looked up in as 
close to O(1) as possible, not even LOG(n)--LOG(n) would be way too 
expensive.


Other than conventional Cisco router access lists (notwithstanding 
compiled lists an TurboACL), I don't know of any other packet filter in 
the universe that does not do similarly.  No packet filter would apply a 
flat list, not the Linux netfilter, not the BSD packet filter, not even 
Windows.


I am not sure what you mean by User Tables or in what context you 
already tried using a straight list?  What list?  Where?  Illuminating 
that information would go a long way toward solving your question.


Also, don't post as CDR.  That's just retarded.

That is correct, and is why it's called a 'blind' transfer;
the transferring party does not know or care what happens to
the call after effecting the transfer.



That's not what users migrating from some legacy PBXs expect, our old
Fujitsu essence will call back the transferrer if the call isn't
answered.
The good old 'hook flash', dial the extension, then hangup.


Well, that would have to be handled in the dialplan somehow, because
Asterisk alone can't decide when a call is 'not answered'. However,
writing such a dialplan would indeed be non-trivial :-)


Not to mention the expansive myriad of things that can answer the call 
these days, like sundry voicemail systems, that do not constitute an 
answer in the sense desired by the transferring party.


On the other hand, if you make the ring timeout too short, that breaks 
functionality such as call forwarding to a cell phone on the recipient side.


It seems to me that keeping blind transfer truly blind is the only 
viable strategy in the contemporary device, service and feature milieu.

Our SIP long distance provider is telling us to only use formats G.723

[t564]
type=friend
host=XXX.XX.56.4
context=default
disallow=all
allow=g723
allow=g729

However, the Dial application gives the following error:

I've checked to ensure that both formats are loaded into Asterisk:

voip2*CLI module show like 729

1 modules loaded
voip2*CLI module show like 723

So I'm at a bit of a loss as to why Asterisk is complaining that there's
no audio format found to offer.

numbers can't just be flash-ported to a different underlying carrier.

Re: [asterisk-users] How to secure our Asterisk server from hacker's ?

I thought the idea was that Asterisk Engineers already know the 
answers to such questions?

I have done security of Dialplan, Sip,IAX base security. For linux we
are working on Iptables. What else is left so that I will do it too...

 Hi all,
 Sorry if this is a little off topic, but I just want to know a thing here.
 What system is used for sending out the caller's number in the US?
 Here in Sweden we use DTMF to send the number out. I just need to know what 
 is used in the US since I don't think I will be able to use an American 
 caller ID device over here.
 Many thanks for any info,
 Christian

 Hi All;
 
 I need to create the needed files for the Cisco Phones to be placed in the

 I need a help in the following please:
 
 1) Regarding to the file: SIPDefault.cnf, The proxy1_address is the IP 
 address of Asterisk?
 
 2) Regarding to the file: SIPmacaddress.cnf, if I need to let it appear at 
 the Phone (the first line for example) the extension, so this will be the 
 line1_name? For example, if I need the extension to be 700 then I set 
 line1_name : 700 ? And if I need line 2 to be 701 then I set line2_name : 
 701?
 
 3) About the xmlDefault.CNF.XML, it is mention that I have to place the IP 
 address of Asterisk, but where? What is the format to write the Asterisk IP 
 address in this file?
 
 4) About the dialplan.xml file, what the below means?
 
 TEMPLATE MATCH=* Timeout=5/ !-- Anything else --
 
 Any help?

Re: [asterisk-users] AMI buffering event output?

2011-06-01 Thread Alex Balashov

Are you using the same telnet client in both cases?

On 06/01/2011 06:54 AM, Örn Arnarson wrote:


No, because the same is happening with telnet. If I telnet to AMI, I
observe exactly the same behavior. Otherwise I would put it down to
PHP.

Hi,

I'm seeing weird behavior with AMI where no events are output until
some input is detected (can be an empty line), at which time all the
buffered output is spewed out at once.

I am maintaining multiple Asterisk installations, and with one
installation I have run into a weird buffering problem with AMI.
The version is 1.6.1.11 in this particular case, which I am running at
multiple locations, all without this problem. Additionally I have
tried version 1.6.2.11 and 1.8.4.1, and the problem is consistent
across these versions.

manager.conf is identical across all these installations.

The problem presents with a php script that opens a socket directly to
AMI, a telnet client from the local machine to the AMI, but not when I
telnet from the machine to a remote machine running AMI.

Does anyone have any input as to what I can try?

Best regards,
Örn


This is because of some blocking and/or read-write order issue in your PHP
script.

PHP is a web language, not for standalone scripts doing network I/O.

I am confident that if you addressed this question directly to Lenz 
Emilitri and/or Loway Research you would get a more speedy, relevant and

Definitely don't put URLs in /etc/hosts.  I assume you meant URIs, but 
either way, neither one belongs there.  That file is for overriding 
what would otherwise be a remote DNS query for a singular host (for 
applications using the libc resolver), and should only contain 
hostnames, short hostnames and IP addresses.
