Depending on what Norstar it is, the ATA (single line adaptor) may not be
capable of
inband DTMF (after the call is answered)
The best way to check this out is to put a POTS phone on the extension, dial
the extension,
answer the phone, dial some digits from the originating Norstar phone.
If you hear nothing then you will have to look at speech recognition to route
the calls.

Oh ... I'm not sure what your setup is like, but I don't have this
problem. I can call voip phones from nortel stations just fine. If you
bridge from nortel extension => nortel ATA => asterisk, the asterisk
should handle the incoming calls like any other pots line. As far as the
Norstar is concerned, it has just dialed an extension.

I've done the same thing and encountered the same problem, as far as I
know Norstar does not send DTMF internally, in my situation I can call
Norstar extensions from the IP phone, but not the other way around. If
I dial our (external PSTN) number from a Norstar extension, then dial
the ATA extension, I can call the IP phone. A telecom guy told me an
ATA expansion card for the Norstar would fix the problem, Jim?

Subject: [on-asterisk] From Nortel to Asterisk
Does anyone have experience integrating an asterisk system into an
exisitng Norstar system? Basically, I bridged a norstar extension
into an asterisk box, thusly:
Norstar extension => nortel ATA =>TDMcard/Asterisk => Voip phone.
Everything works great ... except for one thing: I can't get the voip
phone to log into the norstar queue, like you would with a regular
nortel phone. How do I send feature commands to the Norstar from a
voip phone? Any ideas?
