This should help with CPU usage, but not with actual sound quality - 
it's not possible to undo the compression artefacts :/

[Asterisk-Users] Sound files - uncompressed versions available?

2004-07-20 Thread Fran Boon
Hi,
When listening to GSM-compressed voice prompts from either G.729 or iLBC 
codec, the sound quality is distinctly sub-optimal due to the use of 
multiple transcoding.

Are the standard Asterisk sound files available in uncompressed format?
- I have no problems with disk-space...
PS Am aware that John Todd makes his extras available in uncompressed 
format: http://www.loligo.com/asterisk/sounds/AIF/

Thanks a lot,
Fran.

Anyone using Cisco FXO ports  SIP with *  getting indications?
Anyone using H.323  having better luck? (If so, chan_h323 or chan_oh323?)
It looks to me like a bug in * as to why this IE isn't being handled,

If you mean connecting the X100P to an analog extension line then that 
will work both for incoming and outgoing. Note that the KX-TD1232 analog 
lines do not provide caller id, at least ours do not. 
That's a shame- what protocol do they use? DTMF?

Another option could be to connect Asterisk using an internal isdn
extension. We have a few isdn modems hanging off our pbx that way and they
get callerid etc so Asterisk should be able to as well. We interface
Asterisk to our pbx using a pri line instead so I have not tried using a 
bri line myself.
Do you use the TD-1232's 'T1' interface, then?

 If a peer is registred at reload/sip reload, it will not change.
 You have to unload the sip module and reload it or restart asterisk
 to change the configuration of a registred, i.e. active, peer.

Let's say you have a 256 Kbps Internet connection and you're using it for

support any kind of Call Admission Control where it would prevent you from
originating a call if it would exceed your Internet bandwidth? For example,
in this case, ideally, we would want Asterisk to present busy tone when the
fourth simultaneous call is attempted.
Not quite :/
The closest thing is app_groupcount (available in CVS HEAD)
This allows you to restrict outbound calls, but incoming calls are 
harder to restrict.

There is also an incominglimit  outgoinglimit for sip.conf
http://voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+sip+incominglimit
It says there that 'outgoinglimit' is currently disabled in the source 
code, but I don't see this when I look at the code.
It does say that app_groupcount is to replace this completely.

I would really like to see a 'total calls' limit for my remote servers 
(so bandwidth-limited that this will often be just 1!)
Currently I can only set a maximum of 1 IAX call in each direction 
(since I control both ends of the trunk).
I can't get it down to 1 in total...

1) is this possible, or are we running into some kind of limitation in the software

through Wiki? No, we don't need any G729-G711 transformations, it would only be acting 
as a SIP proxy (even if asterisk isn't a proxy).
/Should/ be psosible with canreinvite=yes  no use of T,t in the dial 
commands, so that Asterisk can stay out of the media path except when 
absolutely necessary.

2) is there a way to store extensions.conf and/or sip.conf in some kind of database, maybe MySQL? This would make life easier if someone wanted to change his SIP password. Or how would you otherwise solve this problem?
http://voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+configuration+from+database
Option 1 is being enhanced through the development of ast_data.
I currently use Option 2
3) is there a quick way of reloading only a part of sip.conf/extensions.conf, for example if only a user password changed, or an extension's behaviour (eg. routing to voicemail instead of a SIP user)? 
sip reload
extensions reload
That's as granular as it gets.
Should be harmless to keep doing this, though.
Maybe I'm looking at the wrong software here and SER would be better for what I want to do... I know asterisk is supposed to be a PBX replacement, but the functions and flexibility it has really tells me stick with asterisk. Or am I way off with these assumptions?
Possibly - depends whether you're after a SIP proxy or a PBX ;)

We are looking to expand our usage of Asterisk and I am trying to make as

sipfriends table in the database, but I'm having trouble with the message
waiting indicators (ie. SIP NOTIFY packets when a new voicemail is waiting).
-SNIP-
Is there a way to make this dynamic so that I don't have to add this into
sip.conf -every- single time that I add a new extension?
Only by extending the functionality of sip friends to include this extra

I wouldn't bother doing this as ast_data (formally res_data) is being 
developed to replace sip/iax friends.
If you want to take a sneak preview at this then see:

I tried the following, but it didn't work ..
[default]
type=peer
host=dynamic
dtmfmode=inband

Am I on the right track, or way off base? :-)
Way off base ;)
That kind of syntax only works in extensions.conf

So I've been kind of struggling with the notion of making my Asterisk 
implementations dynamic, too. While I'd like to make everything directly 
database driven, I'm not sure Asterisk is quite there yet.
I've been thinking of writing something that creates appropriate 
configuration files from the database on a periodic basis, and then does 
an Asterisk reload. This would introduce a small delay into 
configuration changes, but it does have other benefits such as 
decoupling the design of the database from Asterisk.
Any thoughts?
This is exactly what I do - works very well so far :)
I guess that it will reach scalability limits at some stage...but so 
far, so good...

I write out:
users-sip.conf
users-iax.conf
users-voicemail.conf
mapping.conf(username- extension)
These are #included into the main files.
I restart Asterisk via the manager port, since 'asterisk -r -x reload' 
doesn't return properly  the web UI 'sticks' horribly otherwise.

I complement this by using ODBCGet in the dialplan.

 I'm considering using Asterisk with some type of Cisco phone, and currently

 I'm currently wondering:
   Do all the expected functions (transfer, conference, voice mail, message
   waiting indicator, etc.) work normally with Asterisk over SIP?

All work great :)

   What caveats are known about using these phones with SIP, as opposed to
   Cisco's proprietary SCCP?  If an SCCP module is available for Asterisk,
   how functional is it?

There are 2 SCCP modules chan_sccp  chan_skinny
I've not personally used either yet, but I believe they offer working
basic functionality, but are not as advanced as SIP/IAX or, indeed, SCCP
with CallManager.

   How customizable are the phone menus while using SIP (or if a SCCP
   module is available, using SCCP)?

Services menu is very customisable:
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+Cisco+79XX+XML+Services

There is even a manager interface for Asterisk available!:
http://asterisk.edihost.co.uk/am-web/

 Cisco doesn't seem to have much documentation online about using these phones
 in SIP mode, so if anyone is using these phones now, I'd appreciate hearing
 about your experiences.

A good resource is:

 I updated from CVS as you suggested but somehow things are worse 
now. Now ALL sounds are in english.  I checked my configuration files 
and I have language=mx in my sip.conf and zapata.conf. 
I noticed that  /etc/zaptel.conf
has a defaultzone=us, could this be affecting the new version of 
Asterisk?  It was working before I upgraded.
Sorry, 'mx' isn't yet supported - it will default to 'en'
Actually, looking at this again, 'mx' should still play digits from 
'digits/mx' although the syntax followed would be the default 'en' 
syntax. I tested this  all seems to work ok on my system.

What is your directory structure?
I think you must have another problem...
Anyway, I have put up a patch to the bugtracker which adds gender 
supoport to saynumber() for 'es' syntax so that we can have 'la una' in 
a future saytime().
Also in this patch is setting 'mx' language to use the 'es' syntax.

 Here in Mexico we use the same tones as in the US.  In indications.conf I

 Since we do not share the same tones as Spain I thought it would be
better to use a different setting than es.  But maybe I got confused and I
can set language=es and country=mx without there being a problem.
I had this confusion when I started - 'uk' indications, yet 'en' language.

 By the way, is there a solution for saying numbers in spanish?  The
problem I have is that numbers like 100 (cien) do not sound correctly when
concatenated to other numbers.  When you have to say 101 the 100 sound changes
to: ciento uno.
ok, we have an 'es' syntax for saynumber() but it doesn't seem to 
support ciento uno as yet.
Is this the only number that changes?
What about 102? 110? 1001?

In the current syntax patch, it requests a soundfile 'cien.gsm' as 
that's what the original patch author made available for download:
http://voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+sound+files+international

If you have a more complete set (this only includes digits) then could 
you make it available for download?

I would prefer to rename 'cien.gsm' as the more standard '100.gsm'
'ciento' is basically 'hundred and', right?
For other languages we standardise on '100-and.gsm' for that kind of 
thing...

 All numbers like 10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90 and 100 have this problem. 
They all change when you have another number after.  The only exception is the
1000 sound which does not change.  For example:
diez dieci (10)
veinte   veinti (20)
 From 30 to 90 you have to and an y (and) to the number.  Some sounds
like oh.gsm I simply recorded as cero (zero).
Actually this is already in the current version.
'100.gsm' is 'ciento'
Hence the need for a separate 'cien.gsm' for simply '100'
11-19  21-29 have separate soundfiles with dieci/veinti
30-90 add 'y.gsm' before the last digit
As I see it saynumber() appears correct to me.

 It would seem logical for someone (hah!) to write a res_snmp.c for asterisk

 well. The module would allow clients to add themselves to the list and
 receive traps, as well as check for the current status of various variables.

 Okay, this may be over the top, but here goes. Write an asterisk application
 that sends (and receives) status information to another box over the PSTN.
 My idea is not only to use this as a way to verify that * is running, but as
 a way to RELIABLY tell that a remote * box is actively accepting incoming
 calls. It wouldn't have to be anything complicated, just a heartbeat and
 some basic details to let the caller know that yes, I'm alive and accepting
 calls over this line.
 Simplified protocol:
 1) Monitoring box calls up and says (in DTMF):
   #my CallerID#extension I am trying to reach#I'm a machine, so
 reply in DTMF instead of voice#the secret code is#
 2) The remote box says
   #your CallerID#Your DNIS#yes I will accept a call to that
 number#
 3) Monitoring box acknowledges and disconnects
 4) Remote box disconnects
 5) Monitoring box decides whether it likes the answers it received and
 performs actions accordingly.

insmod /lib/modules/2.4.21-9.ELcustom/misc/zaprtc.o
/usr/local/bin/rtcsetup 

(Obviously modify the kernel path if required - this is for RHES3)

 No matter what is dialled - I always go out on the 'Default' line.
 Swapping order makes no difference. If I comment out the 'default' - it
 does match the 'Cell' pattern - and works.

Pattern-matching within a context is not done based on order at all.

To achieve the effect you want:

include = cell
include = default

[cell]
exten = _00[78][234].,1,Playback(posix-cellphone)
exten = _00[78][234].,2,Dial(${TRUNK}:${EXTEN:${TRUNKMSD}})

 If it is, it must limit the capacity of Asterisk. Do you know the

 And Is there any guy modify the source code to prevent this?

 Previously (I have not tried yet with current version), when both clients

 Asterisk and so confuse my NAT firewall.

In iax.conf, set:

notransfer=yes

That prevents IAX from transferring call to remote Asterisk,  so it

Hi Nicholas,

Agree with the other feedback - looks beautiful, the auto-refreshes are 
exceedingly smooth...definitely vindicates using Flash for client-side :)

I also agree that more buttons would be very useful. (Although some of 
my labels get cut-off as-is, so I'd like a slightly smaller font even 
with current size)
In fact I'll have so many that I think what I really want is the option 
to group them into different folders - ideally the user could even 
create their own folder!

Aside from this, I note that the webpage states See at an glance: SIP 
registration status and reachability
How does this work? I can't see any difference on my system between 
registered  unregistered clients (makes a big difference for SoftPhones).

I'd also like to have an option to disable the 'Talking to' part - in 
some situations this might be undesirable.

Thanks a lot for the contribution - I would urge you to continue further :)

 Combining this with MYSQL_FRIENDS, storing template= settings in a database
 would be very powerful.

funnily enough, the application I'm writing at the moment has template=

However, I still need more per-user settings than is possible with
MySQL_FRIENDS

My own list of things that I need storing per user:
extension
shortname (for a mapping.conf that redirects [EMAIL PROTECTED] to an
extension)
fullname (for CallerID)
email (for voicemail)
accountcode
pickupgroup
template
language
calldiversion
dnd

Note that mapping.conf  calldiversion/dnd need to modify files
#included within extensions.conf as well as the user definitions.
So I'd need a MYSQL_EXTENSIONS kind of functionality as well :/

All seems to be working nicely now, but I'm worried about getting time
to 'restart when convenient' on a busy system - users won't want their
calldiversion/dnd settings to only take effect overnight.

I guess I need to implement this with astdb instead of MySQL, since this
can be queried direct within the dialplan.
Would be lovely to have dbget/dbput routines for MySQL as well as just
db1!

 In the contrib/scripts directory I have been trying to figure out the
 format of the entries in the MySQL table.
-CUT-

There are 3 different approaches to storing users in a database.
The first is dynamic - the user details are read directly from the
database.
This is used for SIP  IAX friends  also for Voicemail:
http://voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk+sip+mysql+peers
http://voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk+voicemail+database
However the number of options supported by this 'MySQL friends' system
is currently very limited.

The other possibility is to store all the details in the database  when
changes are made, write out new versions of the conf files.
This is the approach taken by res_config:
http://voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+res_config
 also by the contrib scripts, such as:
retrieve_sip_conf_from_mysql.pl
Obviously, the disadvantage of such systems is that Asterisk needs to be
reloaded to see these changes, which can be disruptive to calls in
progress, or may never get the chance to happen 'when convenient' on a
busy system.

Olle's chan_sip2 introduces a 3rd possibility:
Using templates  autocreate peers for the majority of user options 
storing just the passwords in the MYSQL database.

For me, the ideal would be to hack the code to extend the functionality
of MySQL friends...however I'm not a C programmer.
I am currently starting work on the 2nd option since I want to expose as
many options within a web-based GUI as possible.
Any suggestions on how to minimise impact on the running system during
reload are welcome :)

Fran.

When people talk about voicemail these days, they mean 'voicemail2'
Really? In the docs somewhere, it shows voicemail2 as deprecated.
ok, 'voicemail2' has been renamed as 'voicemail'

My understanding is that when using SIP, the order within the [general]

This has been confirmed by my own testing.
However the order within individual user/peer settings, don't.
I see this is on the wishlist for chan_sip2.

I don't have so much experience with other channel types.

I use pickup groups just fine (using type=friend).

Perhaps logging it as a BUG would be a better way to draw comment?

  Interesting question. Anyone else?
 No help on this either so far.

I don't yet have a need for the feature  can't comment on the reasoning
for the current settings in the code.
However your logic seems right to me:
incominglimit should be for peers
outgoinglimit should be for users
It looks to me like a BUG:
Maybe you should log it as such (along with a little patch if you can!)

  mask= ; -P netmask for host= parameter.
  This has to be defined *before* the host= parameter.
 Thanks for the hint. I didn't notice this.
  What it does? Don't know. Anyone else? Why do Asterisk apply a host mask
  to an IP address for a host?
 This is still open too.

Since this is for peers (i.e. outgoing calls) we need to be more precise than a subnet 
for directing the calls out, so it can't fully replace username/password (unlike the 
simple host=, which can)
It only makes sense to me for providing additional security restrictions to the 
username/password for the REGISTER to be succesful.
I can't comment on whether this is how it gets used in the code.

 Have to check this one. Been working a bit on this problem in the

  I have submitted two bug reports. One includes a patch to chan_sip.c that

  Another is about CALLERIDNUM. This variable seems to strip the dots from

  See:
  http://bugs.digium.com/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=0001075
 I'll add comments to the bug reports. We really need to think about how
 we steer the SIP channel forward. Asterisk is a multi-protocol PBX, so
 there's no sense in making the SIP channel a stand-alone SIP proxy that
 doesn't work with the rest of the PBX. If you don't want a PBX in the core
 of your SIP network, use a SIP proxy there and use Asterisk where it fits
 in. This way of reasoning means there are things that will never happen in
 the Asterisk SIP channel because of the multi-protocol architecture. We need
 to be clear on that while moving the channel forward.

Could different options be used in different channels?
i.e. if the SIP user is calling a Zap channel, then you'd use only
standard numerical CallerIDs.
However, if the SIP user is calling another SIP user, then these new
patches would kick in  you'd be able to have full SIP URLs viewable :)

 Having said that,
 there's a lot of things to do to make the SIP client and server within
 Asterisk more compliant and functional with the rest of the SIP world.

Yes, please :)

 I do want Asterisk to be in the forefront in preventing
 use of Asterisk as a open SIP spam relay to use mail terms. Mail servers are
 picky of which domains they server for inbound and outbound messages, in some
 cases also on what domain is used for outbound messages. We need to have
 configuration that follows this line of thinking for SIP. If someone is using
 our domain for outbound calls - authenticate. If someone is randomly placing
 calls to extensions in any domain they invent *into* our PBX, don't answer.

This is good thinking - the idea of VoIP spam fills one with horror!

 As I stated earlier, I'm highly suspicious to the in order of
 preference
 part. Since I got no comments or replies on that mail, I suspect I'm
 right
 :-) 
  What do you mean? Is the order of preference not working?
 I've checked into this since no one else bothered... :-)
 Allow/deny codecs in the [general] section have an order of preference, it is
 correct. Allow/deny codecs for peers/users have no order of preference, it's
 just a matrix of codecs we can use for calling them.

This looks like a BUG to me!
Is it only evident in the SIP channel, or in others (such as IAX) as
well?
I can't find it in the BugTracker - is it there?
Sounds easy to fix, but that's easy for me to say, since I'm not a coder
;)

  A new question:
  Is chan_sip2 ready for production?
 I'm using it in my production servers, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone else
 for more than testing at this time.
 It's beta and I'm adding new stuff constantly, propably new bugs as well.
 Have got some very useful feedback (thank you, Fran!) but need much more from
 testers.
 It adds a lot of features, like templates and MYSQL authentication. Adding features
 is dangerous without testing, so please help me test this little creature.

I'm testing Asterisk in a SIP-only environment using this version of the
channel. I don't yet run a full Production system, but test this with
X-Lite, ATAs  7960sworks great so far :)

Outgoinglimit = number of calls Asterisk will terminate to local

The fact that isn't working for peers yet is clearly mentioned.

2004-02-21 Thread Fran Boon
On Sat, 2004-02-21 at 19:30, Costa Tsaousis wrote:
 I believe there are three possible paths for asterisk:
 1. Stick to the switched world (as the common denominator for telephony).
 This means that * can have any number of gateways on it, but always, it
 will be a switching-like PBX with some VoIP functionality, build in
 software.
 Example: forget about SIP, H.323 and the like, focus on switched telephony
 with the ability to place and receive calls via VoIP making them as
 switching-friendly as possible, of course with limitations.
 2. Open up the possible scenarios and let the administrator choose the
 primary protocol. This means that although asterisk will not address in
 its core artificially intelligent thinks such as callerid convertion, it
 could be configured to follow either schema. In this case, the
 administrator should have the means to configure some aspects of the
 secondary protocols.
 Example: Support a number of protocols as primary and configure asterisk
 according to them. This means that various building blocks (like callerid
 handling) will be multiplied, one variation per primary protocol and the
 whole system will support only one protocol for such functions. When there
 are interfaces with other protocols the administrator should make hard
 decisions about the properties that cannot be converted automatically.
 This is my case today. I want SIP as primary and I know I will have to
 provide numeric callerids in the configuration when interfacing with other
 protocols. What I need is a SIP PBX and IVR, not a SIP proxy. I cannot do
 what I need with SER (at least not that easy...).

This is also my situation.

 3. Build asterisk as a superset of all protocols, internally. In our case
 this could mean that the callerid could be defined as:
 callerid=TEXT internet address number
 or even:
 callerid=Your Name sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED] h323:... mgcp:...
 or just provide directory services for callerid convertions between non
 compatible protocols.
 As a superset of all protocols, asterisk will be able to be a fully
 functional member of each of the supported worlds and will be able to also
 handle all the protocols as primary at the same time.
 Path 3 is the perfect path. Path 2 is a good one. Path 1 demotes asterisk.
 If it is going to be Path 1 I believe we, all, are going to use asterisk
 as a secondary component in our telephony infrastructures that will
 provide some valuable services, but it will never be the heart of it,
 unless all that we need is a plain old switched-like PBX with some VoIP
 functionality.

I agree that these are the possible paths  would personally be quite happy with (2) 
if the incompatibilities are well-documented.

  We need to work together to handle the multi-domain scenario. Please
  send me whatever you have and let's continue discussing this so we get
  a solid architecture. I do want Asterisk to be in the forefront in
  preventing
  use of Asterisk as a open SIP spam relay to use mail terms. Mail servers

  using
  our domain for outbound calls - authenticate. If someone is randomly
  placing
  calls to extensions in any domain they invent *into* our PBX, don't
  answer.
 I agree with you, but still I think all these should be configuration
 decisions, not implementation ones.

Yes, of course - in a purely internal network, you may legitimately wish
to run an open relay.
However, the default settings (*.conf.sample) should be configured
safely if at all possible...

[Asterisk-Users] X-Lite Asterisk: Speex iLBC not working?

2004-01-26 Thread Fran Boon
This seems to have been reported before, but I've seen no resolution:
http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-dev/2003-August/001470.html
http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2003-August/019091.html
http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2003-October/024472.html
When forcing use of Speex, no sound comes out at all (Speex-1.0.3 on the 
Asterisk server)
When forcing iLBC, there is some very garbled noise, but nothing 
intelligible.

Sniffing the packets, I can see that X-Lite  Asterisk have chosen 
differing 'Payload type' numbers:
X-Lite:
a=rtpmap:97 speex/8000
a=rtpmap:98 iLBC/8000
Asterisk:
a=rtpmap:97 iLBC/8000
a=rtpmap:110 SPEEX/8000

According to the Speex RFC, this is acceptable:
http://speex.org/drafts/draft-herlein-speex-rtp-profile-00.txt
Dynamic payload type codes MUST be negotiated 'out-of-band' for the 
assignment of a dynamic payload type from the range of 96-127.

I'm wondering whether the system is at all case sensitive?
From the RFC:
When conveying information by SDP [4], the encoding name SHALL be speex.
NB Ethereal shows payload-type as being 97 when X-Lite reports iLBC  
110 when X-Lite reports Speex, so the Asterisk numbers seem to 'win'.

Any light shed on this would be great.
Whilst GSM is ok, it would be great to leverage the power of Speex :)
Thanks a lot,
Fran.

[Asterisk-Users] PSTN incoming - both SIP H323 always arrive in default context :-?

2004-01-23 Thread Fran Boon
Some of you may remember seeing my issue using SIP for incoming calls 
from the PSTN:
http://voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+cisco+FXO

i.e. all incoming calls arrive in the default 'bogon-calls' context.

Well, I tried again using H.323  get exactly the same result (both for 
chan_h323  chan_oh323)

i.e. all attempts to put a type=peer in sip.conf or a type=user in 
h323.conf for my host are ignored/bypassed.

Is this a bug?

Luckily for me, I can firewall off the H.323 port to all bar this one 
IP, so I now have a workable solution...until I want to extend the H.323 
gateway to other devices...

Anyone get host=x.x.x.x to be able to bypass the default contexts with 
either SIP or H.323?

Looking for 1001 in bogon-calls
list_route: hop: sip:10.129.3.254:5060
Transmitting (no NAT):
SIP/2.0 100 Trying
All guidance very much welcomed :)

Other options I'm considering to fix this are:
(1) Using SER to take the incoming calls from the Cisco
(2) Using H.323 to take the incoming calls from the Cisco
Commetns on these 2 options also welcomed :)

Best Wishes,
Fran.
