I have a request from a customer to provide several levels of paging when someone leaves a VM. On other PBX's VM systems it is common for the system to 'dial out' to a pager wait a few seconds and then send a DTMF sequence that is usually the mailbox number, or sometimes it will call a remote phone number and ask for a password and let them listen to their VM message.

Hello, i just got asterisk up and working (without alsa). Looks really promising. Now i have some questions regarding hardware I have the following setup PSTN --- serveral PBX (Asterisk) --- digital phones PRI (S2M) Ports analog phones VoIP On the PSTN side i could use Eicon/DIVA PRI 30M cards. Would a Digium T100P or E100P also work in germany ? For conferencing it looks as I would need one Zaptel card. What is recommended in such a setup (if I can't use Digium equipment on the PSTN side) ? What is needed to connect analog and digital devices ? For analog devices it looks as I need T1 interfaces and channel banks. Is that ok ? What hardware is recommended ? And how can I connect ISDN (digital) equipment ? Is there a way to do that ?

RE: [Asterisk-Users] RE:911, networks of * servers, etc. (was: VOIP Dialtone?)
-Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Todd Sent: 21 August 2003 21:01 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Asterisk-Users] RE:911, networks of * servers, etc. (was: VOIP Dialtone?) Yes, I'm familiar with the E911 platforms and their requirements to some degree. The trick is that the people running Asterisk PBX systems have no visibility into SS7, and that is an unreasonable expectation, so some other out-of-band method for moving caller location to the PSAP is required. As far as geographic location tracking is concerned: that is the user's problem. If they don't have the correct information in their device, then they're SOL. There is _no way_ to develop lat/lon/alt coordinates from an IP address, despite what any .com flash-in-the-pan company says they can do with their clever databases. Thus, the PBX/switch provider will have to enforce their own database of device-to-geographic-coordinates. (As mentioned, maybe a SIP header is a reasonable thing to use for the UA to relay this data to the proxy.) I am not concerned so much about the ability of the devices to send their data to the proxy: I am VERY concerned about how the proxy then looks up the appropriate PSAP, and then relays the data for the call to that PSAP. JT 911 through the phone system is tricky business. e911 which is the automated process of handing the address to the 911 center uses the SS7 database to do it's work (the database is created when the LEC runs physical lines to locations not by people filling anything out). Cell phone service providers have the simuliar problems as VoIP service providers are facing are realizing with call forwarding and call following it will get worse.. Congress has mandated that the cell phone industry make it possible to track a cell phone users within 300yards via cell sites and triangulation. By 2005 every cell phone will be required to have a GPS and send GPS information to the 911 system when they call 911. If you want more information on e911 try http://www.fcc.gov/911/enhanced/ . As the cell phone industry grows there will be a need for a national 911 call routing center. I bet it won't be free.

OK, that VOIP dialtone? thread was getting really out of hand, so I'll condense my answers into one big ugly message: 1) 911 service. Yes, that is one of three reasons to keep your PSTN line. The other two reasons are: Inbound calls from local callers still should work on a POTS line, for now. You can't find VOIP providers in most area codes, so you'll most likely need to have a local number that finds it's way to you for local tasks. Secondly, the Internet is not as reliable as the phone system. Sorry, folks, it just works that way right now despite what your network engineer might tell you. That's not to say it's unreliable, but those last two nines are very expensive... Besides, any good network engineer will tell you that you should have multiple paths for your IP connectivity. With few exceptions, most homes do not have multipath connectivity. (note: businesses may in fact have better uptime on their IP network than their phone network, if they have competent engineers and a reasonable budget.) 1.5) There are reasonable technical solutions to this problem, but for the life of me I can't figure out why the 911 centers haven't gotten their act together and solved this. There are two halves to this problem: What PSAP do I call? (and what phone number) and How do I get my location data to the PSAP once I call them? C'mon, this is not difficult. The first question can be answered trivially: there _must_ be a database of address-to-PSAP mappings. Any PBX administrator (or SIP phone owner, for that matter) should be able to figure out their address. Methods for associating the PSAP number with the phone are numerous, and trivially implemented - if people don't keep their address information updated, they're SOL (though you can remind them in an automated fashion to keep it updated - just forbid them from using the service unless they verify the address every month or so.) The second question is more difficult, but certainly possible. There may be kludge ways of doing it, and there should be more elegant ways of doing it. A SIP header with lat/lon/alt data that gets sent from the UA only on 911 (or other programmable string) calls might be reasonably elegant... maybe. But that only gets the data to the SIP proxy. That doesn't solve the issue of how you get that data from the SIP proxy to the PSAP, which at some point will be almost certainly through a PSTN connection... ADSI FSK, maybe? Ugly, and PSAPs would not want to invest in equipment. A national

Same results, it works fine when we call out from a SIP device but rerouting an inbound zap channel out to another has been unresolvable. Let me know if you find a solution - my customers are frustrated by the loss of Caller ID on forwarded calls. Steve Bourg On Wed, 20 Aug 2003, Michael Rose wrote: Greetings all.. We have an inbound/outbound PRI installed and terminated on a T400P Digium Quad T1 card. Were seeing an odd problem when sending $CALLERIDNUM when calls from the PRI are forwarded back out to the PSTN over the PRI. The $CALLERIDNUM is not being sent out along with the call. Its sending the phone number of the PRI itself, rather than the $CALLERIDNUM information. Yes, we can send CID info to our PRI provider. If we make a call with our Cisco 7960, we can send any phone number we enter into SetCallerID(). However, if we use SetCallerID(${CALLERIDNUM}) it wont forward the CID number. [mydid] exten = 5558384810,1,SetCallerID(${CALLERIDNUM}) exten = 5558384810,2,Dial(Zap/g1/15553456131SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED]SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED],20) exten = 2068384810,3,Congestion Now when I call my DID, 5558384810 from my land line, Asterisk takes the CID number and sends it to my IP phones (Cisco 7960) which I can see on the display of the IP Phone. However, the CID number doesnt get sent to the cell phone. Below is the context we use to make outgoing calls from our Cisco 7960s. This works fine with our PRI. When I call using the following, my cell phone shows the incoming call coming from 2065551212. This tells me that our PRI vendor is allowing us to send CID info. [dialout-pri] exten = _1NX,1,SetCallerID(2065551212) exten = _1NX,2,Dial(Zap/g1/${EXTEN},100,T) exten = _1NX,3,Congestion exten = _1NX,4,Hangup Heres what Asterisk shows, when the call is coming in. -- Executing SetCallerID(Zap/23-1, 5557209085) in new stack -- Executing Dial(Zap/23-1, Zap/g1/15557206131SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED]SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED]|20) in new stack -- Called g1/15557206131 -- Called [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Called [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Accepting call from '5557209085' to '5558384810' on channel 23, span 1 -- SIP/69.28.200.84-4698 is ringing -- SIP/10.0.1.2-6695 is ringing -- Zap/1-1 is ringing Thanks in advance. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Re: [Asterisk-Users] RTP header compression?
cRTP (compressed RTP, and its official acronym has a small 'c') is done at the router level, so it's transparent to the user agent. AFAIK, there's no open implementation of cRTP. Cisco switches support it. Another approach is ROHC (Robust Header Compression), it works on all IP packets. This one is more promising, it's also the standard for 3G phones. ROHC can be implemented at end-points like the 3G phones, not just routers. There's a Linux ROHC implementation for improving throughput on slow links like PPP. See http://rohc.sourceforge.net/ Hope this helps. Kevin K wrote: Uh oh. I think I may be looking at the wrong tool. My goal is to implement (in an open source software suite) an RTP/UDP/IP header compression algorithm that would save bandwidth used by voice traffic packets. So a 5ms G.711 packet that would otherwise be 98 bytes, could be reduced to 62 bytes when its RTP/UDP/IP header is compressed. This would require me to get into the RTP stack used to packetize the actual data (voice) packets. From what I am reading, * is not the right software for that kind of work because it don't really touch the voice packets themselves but rather enables the two endpoints to talk to negotiate and connect with each other (as well as utilize a number of other features - vmail, callerID, etc). Is this correct? Is what I am looking for an open-sourced SIP user agent? Or is it more than that? Any help would be great, as I appear to be confused.

Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2003 13:38:22 -0700 I sent this to the asterisk-dev by accident... Original Message Follows Hi all, I have a couple questions about RTP header compression with Asterisk: 1) Has this been implemented before or is it included in the Asterisk package? 2) If the answer to (1) is no, is there an RTP stack that this can be logically implemented into? Where would that be? Thanks, Kevin As I mentioned before in a reply to this: 1) No. 2) Take a look at the source code; you should be able to find the rtp sections in it readily enough. 3) If you are asking about RTP compression between Asterisk servers, look at IAX2 and trunking mode. Questions 1 and 2 become less meaningful.

I hope you all will excuse my ignorance I just setup Asterisk for the first time and am trying to find everything I need to change, can someone point me to an article or document that would explain how to do a generic voicemail setup via a voice modem, if this can't be done I hope you'll be gentle :) Mike ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Game time is over gang
I don't put much faith in that lasting too long. They don't regulate email or can't for that matter. They don't regulate streaming video... Its a battle they will loose. Its data packets. If they get away with regulations on this.. whats next regulation of FTP or HTTP for that matter? And as I finish this email I see that jtodd pointed out this is the exact reason we would be doing this. I totally agree. Mark said he could map it thru iaxtel.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Grandstream Budgetone Defective Units
Out of the 8 test Grandstreams we purchased in May- 3 of them are now totally dead. It looks like power supply problems... 2 of the phones have broken buttons... And every time I plug them into the network- half of them cause the network to crash. It seems that in the network we are testing on (a Dutch university) does not agree with the Grandstream phones. When plugged into the network, they seem to grab the MAC address from the local router and us it is their own. This produces total chaos- local pc's get confused and the network stops working. Not good. I told GS about this problem a few months ago- they initially blamed the problem on the network. So far, there has been no satisfactory solution. It seems obvious to me that the GS is not ready for prime time... -GSR - Original Message - From: Steve Haehnichen [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, August 23, 2003 5:18 AM Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Grandstream Budgetone Defective Units -= On Fri, 22 Aug 2003 06:49:53 +, WipeOut .
