Re: [Asterisk-Users] load balancing 20 asterisk servers
I beleive what you're looking for is a scalable SIP proxy, like SER :) That way, all clients registers to SER and SER redirects the caller to one of the asterisk boxes. Search the wiki at voip-info.org for asterisk at large :) Yes, that is one of the many pages I've read. But we still have a problem. Take a look at this image to get a better idea of my end goal. http://drmac.homeunix.net/images/load_balancer.jpg You won't need the second balancer. SER can do that. For growth, all you do is add more SER and more Asterisk boxes. Are you sure one SER box won't be sufficient? But if Asterisk won't work correctly with the load balancing due to packet movement, then I need to approach this differently. perhaps setting up a second SER box for failover will do? just failover with heartbeat or something... roy ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Derek Doug Lytle wrote: Derek Conniffe wrote: Hi everyone, I'd say this question has come up and been answered before but I haven't been able to find it. I have a Cisco 7940 that I've upgraded to SIP firmware (currently P0S-3-06-3-00 - for some reason there was a failure when trying to upgrade to V7 so I left it at V6). Derek, I found this in the comments field on the wiki, hope this helps on your upgrade, it did for me, I got the same error upgrading from 6.2 to 7.3. It asked for the same files and then got the error invalid protocol whatever. Someone else with these phones gave me the solution. When you upgrade the firmware you need to have the image_version number in 2 files. The os79xx file and the sipdefault file. In all previous upgrades the version was exactly the same example P0S30203 in the OS79XX.txt and image_version P0S30203 in the sipdefault.cnf file. However when upgrading to 7.3 you need 2 different names. in OS79XX.txt you need to write P003-07-3-00 and P0S3-07-3-00 in SIPDefault.cnf then you just need the 4 files in the TFTP server directory, P003-07-3-00.bin, P003-07-3-00.sbn, P0S3-07-3-00.loads, P0S3-07-3-00.sb2. Also if you are upgrading for the 1st time to the inital version P0S30203 and it doesn't work, you make have an error in the status messages section of the phone about a buffer overflow. This can be solved by deleting everything out of sipdefault.cnf except for the image_version: P0S30203 line. Once you have loaded the firmware you can add all the other stuff. This is some buffer overflow error that doesn't let the phone download a file that is over a certain kb in size.

[Asterisk-Users] Newbie - Echo on Incoming calls
Hi, I have a setup of Asterisk with TDM13B card (1FXS,3FXO ports) and acouple of Cisco 7960 IP phones on SIP. So far i have managed to get the internal SIP calls going through without a hitch and can get to call through to the analog lines (SIP -- ANALOG) without any echos. However whenever we receive an incoming call via the analog lines (ANALOG -- SIP), there is an echo for about 15-30 seconds and it fades off thereafter Initially i had an echo on both calling and receiving until i enabled the echotraining=yes option and that seemed to have cleared the outgoing calls. I cant seem to establish where the problem is. Please see my zapata.conf file below. PS: I have tried various values i.e FXS_KS and FXS_LS, also the tx and rx values as well but none seem to be working. Any help will be highly appreciated.

[Asterisk-Users] IAX2 Rejected connection attempt (voiptalk.org)
Hi all, Have a problem that I have been battling with for a few days now with help from voiptalk.org support.but I thought someone here might have seen this before. I have an asterisk box running on a real non nat'ed ip address with an incoming number from voiptalk.org on IAX2. The problem I am seeing with or without firewall rules in place (port 4569 udp open or all ports open ie firewall rules flushed) is rejected connection attempt from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx which is voiptalks IAX server... The real killer here is that this was all working but my inter asterisk sip connections were not transmitting voice, after changing canreinvite=no to canreinvite=yes in sip.conf the sip connections started sending/receiving voice ok but the incoming calls were being rejected. I can also dial out on voiptalks IAX connection happily. And just to be sure I changed the canreinvite back the problem remains. I have all but rebooted the box. I have restarted asterisk and checked everything again, but I just can't see why this is happening.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Re: load balancing 20 asterisk servers
The DNS approach does not handle single or multiple system failures, only very elementary load balancing over a lengthy period of time. Are you shure of that? I'm aware that the load criteria is trickier, but very possible. Yes, very sure. Look at past posts relative to the Broadvoice.com problem and you'll see one step in the recommended 'fix' was to install a /etc/hosts entry in the customer's system. Once something like that is done getting that admin to remove/change it is almost impossible. Operating systems and probably a lot of devices *cache* the results of DNS lookups. That means removing A records won't do any good. One can specify a short dns cache time within the primary dns, however a substantial number of machines ignore the value. Short story: No matter what network service is being balanced, if you want to guard against failure and against customers noticing that failure use a real load balancing solution, DDNS is not suitable. Agree with that 100%. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Then you could have a script decide whether the server can handle anymore connections. There are lots of different ways to measure how busy a server happens to be and snmp can be made to do that. Another is simply counting pkts/sec to/from a server. I am still a beginner so I am not sure how you could have asterisk delegate calls to other servers. would a redirect transfer remove the management server from the loop? Part of the problem is that something needs to detect a failed server and that failure can be anything from a broken cat5 cable to an internal s/w error (* failed, OS is up), etc. using loadbalancer? http://www.vovida.org/applications/downloads/loadbalancer/ The person that wrote that has a rather lengthy list of ToDo's and hasn't touched it since May 2002. I'd bet they decide the problem was much larger then what they initially thought. Documenting and handling the exception conditions with sip rtp is more difficult then what it appears on the surface. these are just ideas I am tossing out here for you. Writing code to handle asterisk-to-asterisk load balancing would be substantially easier then dealing with sip phones and adapters that have hard coded logic, and in at least some cases, that logic is less then robust. All sip devices would need to be covered one way or another. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

[Asterisk-Users] How to forward a call to the same ISDN box ?
Hello Guys Im trying to forward a incoming call from asterisk to a second number (the second phone number is located on the same ISDN BOX ) I did try the following on the extensions.conf exten=2,1,Dial(capi/720XXX1:720XXX2,18) It does work if the second number is a phone number located outside of the building (lets say a mobile phone number).. But I don't know why I cant forward the call if the phone number is on the same ISDN box. Example: Incoming call -- 720XXX1 (Asterisk server pick's up the call) --- (forwarding to) 720XXX2..

[Asterisk-Users] Incoming SIP calls with different signaling and RTP IP addresses
Hello, I use Asterisk CVS-v1-0-12/21/04-11:05:29 and I noticed that when we receive calls from a partner's IP address (who has a static host entry in the sip.conf file) but the RTP comes from a different address than the signaling, our * sends a 403 forbidden message and drops the call. This problem does not llow us to receive calls from SIP proxies. Was this fixed in newer versions of Asterisk?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Re: load balancing 20 asterisk servers
DNS based load ballancing has it's place, as dose using an application level switch. Say an earthquake takes out your California data center. Shortly the DNS servers will notice and pull that center's record. However do to caches and all this is not fast and users will notice. What the switch does is route at the protocol level between local machines. You can take a machine off line and no one will notice. Works great until the big quake a backhoe takes out a fiber cable ro there is a fire flood or who knows what. You have fiber-seeking-backhoes in your area? Wow! protocol level switches have to know about the protocol. You can buy them that work with HTTP, HTTPS and the common ones but I wonder aboit SIP? Getting the RPT to the right * server would be hard beetrer to have a proxy tell the user which * server to go to and nothave to route RTP. Handling sip-rtp via a load balancer is roughly equivalent to handling ftp (ports 20 21, passive, etc). The load balancer really needs to inspect sip packet content and follow the rtp port negotiation process. I'm not aware of any balancers that can do that today. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Newbie - Echo on Incoming calls
I have a setup of Asterisk with TDM13B card (1FXS,3FXO ports) and acouple of Cisco 7960 IP phones on SIP. So far i have managed to get the internal SIP calls going through without a hitch and can get to call through to the analog lines (SIP -- ANALOG) without any echos. However whenever we receive an incoming call via the analog lines (ANALOG -- SIP), there is an echo for about 15-30 seconds and it fades off thereafter Initially i had an echo on both calling and receiving until i enabled the echotraining=yes option and that seemed to have cleared the outgoing calls. I cant seem to establish where the problem is. Please see my zapata.conf file below. PS: I have tried various values i.e FXS_KS and FXS_LS, also the tx and rx values as well but none seem to be working. Try echotraining=800 and see what happens.

[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk crashes from time to time
Hello List, we have 3 Asterisk boxes running under Fedora Core 2. Every box hangs/crashes from time to time. These installations are image based, means we made an image from our testserver with an image tool, which is able to manage ext3 partitions and deployed it to different server hardware. These servers run very stable and I could not find any failures in the logs. As these crashes appeared the first time, I thought rebooting these machines by cronjob every night at 04:00 would solve the problems. It seemed to work quite well for a couple of weeks. Today I saw our own asterisk production server crash :-( . These crashes are always the same, asterisk stops responding, the cli does not give any reaction on command input, you have to manually kill -9 all asterisk and moh processes. Asterisk logs are empty. We don't use any isdn/fxs/fxo/e1/t1 cards in these servers. Our connections to PSTN is only made by Patton/Inalp SmartNode Gateways, connected to asterisk via sip protocol. Scince these crashes appear on three servers with different hardware, and the main installation is always the same, I would think there are only two possible sources to find the failure: Operating System Fedora Core 2 Kernel 2.6.8-1.521 Asterisk CVS-HEAD-01/08/05 Has anybody out there similar problems, and if yes, how did he fix them? Is there any working solution, having asterisk control itself perhaps by using a script that drops a test call in /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing and if this call wasn't processed successfull the script stops all running asterisk and moh processes and restarts asterisk? Any help would be appreciated, since I can't get no sleep with these timebombs out there ;-) Guido Hecken ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
[Asterisk-Users] Cisco 7960G phone crashes during SIP upgrade
Hello, I've recently received a Cisco 7960G phone with the factory default SCCP firmware on it. As we're using SIP on our network, the first things i've done was to upgrade but unfortunately the phone just restarted. By looking on the TFTP logs and tcpump output, i've seen that the phone crashed and restarted just after downloading the OS79XX.TXT file, without requesting the image file at any moment. If i'm putting a SCCP image file name (without ext.) on the OS79XX.TXT (begining with P003), the phone doesn't crash and request the respective SEPmac.xml file. Unfortunately (again), just after downloading the xml configuration it hang and restart. I've checked the syntax and they's no error on it, if they's one the phone output the error on the display without crashing. Note that i've both put with and without the load information statement, with the same result. Both statical and DHCP configuration has been tried.

If each company is in their own context, then just specify the callerID for each in their own company-specific outbound context with the SetCallerId command. Since you will have 2 totally different contexts, each company should be isolated to their own set of instructions and thus have 2 different callerid's set. - Pedro On Wed, 2 Feb 2005 22:31:57 -0500, Jason Brown [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Pedro Exactly my point.

Bottom line... on most models of the Cisco phones, you have to upgrade from sccp to sip in steps. Sip v2, v3, v5, etc. On some, you'll need to remove a bunch of the comments from the config files during the upgrade as you'll bump into some sort of buffer overflow that tends to suggest certain versions of firmware don't allocate enough space to read the entire config file from tftp.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Cisco 7960G phone crashes during SIP upgrade
There was a bug with certain SCCP images, where you couldn't upgrade to images above XX size. I don't have the Cisco document though, that could be what you're seeing.. Their symptoms were worse though, it would fail *after* ugprading therefore making the phone useless :-) Not sure, just one phone you say?

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk crashes from time to time
Rich, Far too many variables for anyone to even guess at the root cause. Problem could be related to slight differences in o/s libraries between systems, coding problems within asterisk, etc. You 're right, it could be every thing There were some issues reported with cvs head in January relative to hangs, etc. Are they reported in the bugtracker, or in the mailing list? Might consider changing /etc/asterisk/logger.conf and add debug to the list. Then after a failure, at least look at /var/log/asterisk/debug messages. Yes, this was the first thing, I did after the crash showed up. I simply forgot to enable it, since this production server ran long time without problems. But now, following murphy's law, the next crash will never happen ;-) For additional info, I'd suggest compiling the code on one of thse machines to see if it complains about missing/inappropriate items. After these machines were setup, we compiled new code on every machine, since we started with an older version of Asterisk in November 2004. The compiling of asterisk did not show me any relevant (?) errors. But I remember there were some statements (Warnings) in the console output of the make process, I didn't understand. Is this output logged in addition to the console in a logfile somewhere? If so, one could examine this output and hopefully get some hints...

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Cisco 7960G phone crashes during SIP upgrade
Nicholas: You need to convert from SCCP to SIP by loading image_version: P0S30202 first. Use the OS79XX.TXT file to specify this version. After that upgrade to each newer release P0S30203, P0S3-03-2-00, etc in the same fashion. Going from 6.3 to 7.0 the loader process changes.

[Asterisk-Users] RE: Cisco 7960G phone crashes during SIP upgrade
I found the phones to be very flaky. Make SURE: 1. The txt files are unix txt files. NO CR/LF at end of line. If you edit the files on a PC use wordpad only. If you use Notepad they will ADD extra characters that causes the phone to reject the files. Do not save them as Unicode text files, this is cause it to fail as well. 2. The 7.x SIP image is not a full image, you have to start with 6.3 or 6.0. I have had success starting with 6.3 on some phones, but others required me to start with 6.0 3. Upgrade path 6.0 6.3 7.3 4. The 7.3 upgrade fails because the directions on how to upgrade are wrong. Try this. a. Edit OS79XX.TXT and put P003-07-3-00 as image name b. Edit SIPDefault.txt and put image name as P003-07-3-00 Reboot the phone. The phone will upgrade the universal loader application, then fail on loading the 7.3 application w/ a Protocol Application Invalid error. DO NOT UNPLUG THE PHONE: c. Now Edit SIPDefault.txt and change image name to P0S3-07-3-00 When the phone reboots by itself, it will upgrade the SIP image to 7.3 and hopefully you are done. I have found with no explanation that sometimes the phone will take multiple reboot with errors before it will work. Cisco says there is a Checklist of things it is looking for. Apparently this checklist progresses from each successive reboot. If you unplug the phone all you are doing is starting over again. Be patient it could take 20 - 30 minutes for each phone. I am not an expert, I have successfully upgraded 20 phones. This was the best I could figure out through trial and error. If you get a checksum error on the SIP 6.3 image, the problem is with your config files not the image. Good luck. I have found upgrading polycoms easier. Found the phone quality to be very good. They have a bug in their 1.3 image that affects phone to phone dialing on the polycom. That appears to have gone away when I upgraded to 1.4 Gene -- Message: 8 Date: Thu, 3 Feb 2005 13:18:28 + From: Nicolas Chabbey [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Cisco 7960G phone crashes during SIP upgrade To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Hello, I've recently received a Cisco 7960G phone with the factory default SCCP firmware on it. As we're using SIP on our network, the first things i've done was to upgrade but unfortunately the phone just restarted. By looking on the TFTP logs and tcpump output, i've seen that the phone crashed and restarted just after downloading the OS79XX.TXT file, without requesting the image file at any moment. If i'm putting a SCCP image file name (without ext.) on the OS79XX.TXT (begining with P003), the phone doesn't crash and request the respective SEPmac.xml file. Unfortunately (again), just after downloading the xml configuration it hang and restart. I've checked the syntax and they's no error on it, if they's one the phone output the error on the display without crashing. Note that i've both put with and without the load information statement, with the same result. Both statical and DHCP configuration has been tried. Maybe it's an hardware failure or i've miss somethings realy important :) Thanks ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
[Asterisk-Users] Busy Extension Ring to alternate.
I know that with Voicemail you can either do voicemail(uextension) or voicemail(bextension), but with the Sipura SPA-841's I need to be able to roll lines from one extension to an alternate on the phone. For example: If extension 100 is busy, it will ring extension 120 on the same phone, and if that is busy it will ring 140, and then if it hits line 4 with no response, it will then finally go into voicemail. Could I do: exten = 100,1,DIAL(SIP/b100,20,rt) exten = 100,2,DIAL(SIP/b120,20,rt) exten = 100,3,DIAL(SIP/b140,20,rt) exten = 100,n,Voicemail(b100) exten = 100,s+1,Hangup Would this work? Thanks, ~Dan P.S. Has anyone found resources on how to program the LED's on the SPA-841's? ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

The details you quoted worked perfectly and I'm now on firmware V7. I still have the no DTML tones recognised in voicemail but thats another problem. All the best! Derek Doug Lytle wrote: Derek Conniffe wrote: Hi everyone, I'd say this question has come up and been answered before but I haven't been able to find it. I have a Cisco 7940 that I've upgraded to SIP firmware (currently P0S-3-06-3-00 - for some reason there was a failure when trying to upgrade to V7 so I left it at V6). Derek, I found this in the comments field on the wiki, hope this helps on your upgrade, it did for me, I got the same error upgrading from 6.2 to 7.3. It asked for the same files and then got the error invalid protocol whatever. Someone else with these phones gave me the solution. When you upgrade the firmware you need to have the image_version number in 2 files. The os79xx file and the sipdefault file. In all previous upgrades the version was exactly the same example P0S30203 in the OS79XX.txt and image_version P0S30203 in the sipdefault.cnf file. However when upgrading to 7.3 you need 2 different names. in OS79XX.txt you need to write P003-07-3-00 and P0S3-07-3-00 in SIPDefault.cnf then you just need the 4 files in the TFTP server directory, P003-07-3-00.bin, P003-07-3-00.sbn, P0S3-07-3-00.loads, P0S3-07-3-00.sb2. Also if you are upgrading for the 1st time to the inital version P0S30203 and it doesn't work, you make have an error in the status messages section of the phone about a buffer overflow. This can be solved by deleting everything out of sipdefault.cnf except for the image_version: P0S30203 line. Once you have loaded the firmware you can add all the other stuff. This is some buffer overflow error that doesn't let the phone download a file that is over a certain kb in size.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk crashes from time to time
Inline... Far too many variables for anyone to even guess at the root cause. Problem could be related to slight differences in o/s libraries between systems, coding problems within asterisk, etc. You 're right, it could be every thing There were some issues reported with cvs head in January relative to hangs, etc. Are they reported in the bugtracker, or in the mailing list? Not all for sure. If you watch the -cvs and -user list, you'd see folks with seg faults, etc, and not too long after that you see a change come through -cvs. Sometimes with comments like 'fix silly typo', etc. Given that cvs head is actually development, at any point in time there could easily be various problems (expected). To try to recreate historically whether you caught a cvs head version that had errors is almost impossible. That's why its important to run cvs head in some sort of pre-production test environment before promoting the code into a customer's machine, etc. (That implies beating the hell out of your test environment.) Might consider changing /etc/asterisk/logger.conf and add debug to the list. Then after a failure, at least look at /var/log/asterisk/debug messages. Yes, this was the first thing, I did after the crash showed up. I simply forgot to enable it, since this production server ran long time without problems. But now, following murphy's law, the next crash will never happen ;-) For additional info, I'd suggest compiling the code on one of thse machines to see if it complains about missing/inappropriate items. After these machines were setup, we compiled new code on every machine, since we started with an older version of Asterisk in November 2004. The compiling of asterisk did not show me any relevant (?) errors. But I remember there were some statements (Warnings) in the console output of the make process, I didn't understand. Is this output logged in addition to the console in a logfile somewhere? If so, one could examine this output and hopefully get some hints... The only two (key) log methods that I know of is to run the cli with several -'s, and turn on debugging in the logger.conf file (which may require you to config /etc/syslog.conf to catch them). Then look at /var/log/asterisk/debug after a failure. (There are other debug modes, but not sure I'd use those to catch a production problem. The one's I know about are primarily intended for development debugging. Other folks might contribute hints here.) ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk Dialplan command PPPD released
Hello all! Sirrix AG, Saarbrücken (manufacturer of the Sirrix.PCI4S0 4-port ISDN card for Asterisk) has released the new Asterisk dialplan command PPPD (app_pppd). It allows to connect a Linux PPP daemon to an arbitrary digital (ISDN) Asterisk channel to provide RAS dialin and dialout. The PPPD command has successfully been tested with Sirrix.PCI4S0 cards and a standard ISDN4Linux ipppd on the other side. The PPPD command uses the Linux PPP daemon without additional patches. The PPP daemon must support synchronous PPP mode. PPP support must be enabled in the Kernel. More information about the PPPD command can be found at http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+cmd+PPPD Sirrix AG will be present at CeBIT Hall 9 Booth D09 and show various applications of the Sirrix.PCI4S0 in Asterisk environments.

That's true for well behaved systems, but isn't true with the majority of sip phones and adapters. The majority do not pay any attention to the ttl fields in the dns response, and thus won't try another dns query during follow on attempts. Plus, a fair number of phones and adapters have problems with dns and the work around (as suggested by the OEM) is to use hard coded IP addresses. There are actually far more exception cases then there are solid sip devices (from a dns perspective), therefore round robin with sip boxes will not see the same results as the white paper you've referred to. I have not tried to prove this, but I'd bet at least some money that sip phones and adapters don't do a dns lookup each time a call is placed. It _might_ do a lookup on each register, but not each call. As far as the failover part, all thats needed is a simple IP Address takeover. nowadays, ip address takeovers is VERY simple. change an ip address, possibly add a proxy arp, and clear the arp cache (or send a garp packet) The OP was asking about load balancing 20 servers. IP address takeover wouldn't apply nor would it scale.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] RE: Cisco 7960G phone crashes during SIP upgrade
I can confirm that the Cisco instruction for installing/upgrading to the 7.3 SIP image do not work. When I originally installed SIP on some brand new phones Cisco TAC indicated that a phone has to run 6.3 before it can be upgraded to 7.3. Loading the 6.3 SIP image has been a success. I've had no problems switching between 6.3 SIP and various SCCP images back and forth. I might try your suggested method to get up to the 7.3 SIP image. However, it doesn't sound like a hassle free method of loading SIP at all. I'd much prefer if I could tell the phone via the dhcp server to load from tftp server x.x.x.x and automatically loads SIP or load from tftp server y.y.y.y and automatically load SCCP (where x.x.x.x is Asterisk and y.y.y.y is Cisco CCM). Adi On Thu, 3 Feb 2005, Gene Willingham wrote: I found the phones to be very flaky. Make SURE: 1. The txt files are unix txt files. NO CR/LF at end of line. If you edit the files on a PC use wordpad only. If you use Notepad they will ADD extra characters that causes the phone to reject the files. Do not save them as Unicode text files, this is cause it to fail as well. 2. The 7.x SIP image is not a full image, you have to start with 6.3 or 6.0. I have had success starting with 6.3 on some phones, but others required me to start with 6.0 3. Upgrade path 6.0 6.3 7.3 4. The 7.3 upgrade fails because the directions on how to upgrade are wrong. Try this. a. Edit OS79XX.TXT and put P003-07-3-00 as image name b. Edit SIPDefault.txt and put image name as P003-07-3-00 Reboot the phone. The phone will upgrade the universal loader application, then fail on loading the 7.3 application w/ a Protocol Application Invalid error. DO NOT UNPLUG THE PHONE: c. Now Edit SIPDefault.txt and change image name to P0S3-07-3-00 When the phone reboots by itself, it will upgrade the SIP image to 7.3 and hopefully you are done. I have found with no explanation that sometimes the phone will take multiple reboot with errors before it will work. Cisco says there is a Checklist of things it is looking for. Apparently this checklist progresses from each successive reboot. If you unplug the phone all you are doing is starting over again. Be patient it could take 20 - 30 minutes for each phone. I am not an expert, I have successfully upgraded 20 phones. This was the best I could figure out through trial and error. If you get a checksum error on the SIP 6.3 image, the problem is with your config files not the image. Good luck. I have found upgrading polycoms easier. Found the phone quality to be very good. They have a bug in their 1.3 image that affects phone to phone dialing on the polycom.

As we're using SIP on our network, the first things i've done was to upgrade but unfortunately the phone just restarted. By looking on the TFTP logs and tcpump output, i've seen that the phone crashed and restarted just after downloading the OS79XX.TXT file, without requesting the image file at any moment. If i'm putting a SCCP image file name (without ext.) on the OS79XX.TXT (begining with P003), the phone doesn't crash and request the respective SEPmac.xml file. Unfortunately (again), just after downloading the xml configuration it hang and restart. I've checked the syntax and they's no error on it, if they's one the phone output the error on the display without crashing. Note that i've both put with and without the load information statement, with the same result. Both statical and DHCP configuration has been tried.

Paul Yes - we are having the exact same problem with a portion of our IAXys in the field. In all cases the IAXys are behind simple SOHO firewalls like the Linksys. After an idle period - perhaps 1-3 days - they just stop working, in both directions, but a simple power cycle restores functionality. We have an open support incident with Digium but have not yet heard back. FWIW we have stopped selling deploying the IAXys until we have a resolution to the problem.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] RE: Cisco 7960G phone crashes during SIP upgrade
The 7.3 zip file contains the wrong filenames from their website. If you watch the status messages, you should see a incorrect loads or invalid loads flash before the phone continually reboots. I cannot remember exactly which files I renamed to make it work, but I edited the .loads file, and renamed sbn or bin, etc and finally got it all working to 7.3 from 6.5 Skinny image. -Greg Adi Linden wrote: I can confirm that the Cisco instruction for installing/upgrading to the 7.3 SIP image do not work. When I originally installed SIP on some brand new phones Cisco TAC indicated that a phone has to run 6.3 before it can be upgraded to 7.3. Loading the 6.3 SIP image has been a success. I've had no problems switching between 6.3 SIP and various SCCP images back and forth. I might try your suggested method to get up to the 7.3 SIP image. However, it doesn't sound like a hassle free method of loading SIP at all. I'd much prefer if I could tell the phone via the dhcp server to load from tftp server x.x.x.x and automatically loads SIP or load from tftp server y.y.y.y and automatically load SCCP (where x.x.x.x is Asterisk and y.y.y.y is Cisco CCM).

If you edit the files on a PC use wordpad only. If you use Notepad they will ADD extra characters that causes the phone to reject the files. Do not save them as Unicode text files, this is cause it to fail as well. 2. The 7.x SIP image is not a full image, you have to start with 6.3 or 6.0. I have had success starting with 6.3 on some phones, but others required me to start with 6.0 3. Upgrade path 6.0 6.3 7.3 4. The 7.3 upgrade fails because the directions on how to upgrade are wrong. Try this. a. Edit OS79XX.TXT and put P003-07-3-00 as image name b. Edit SIPDefault.txt and put image name as P003-07-3-00 Reboot the phone. The phone will upgrade the universal loader application, then fail on loading the 7.3 application w/ a Protocol Application Invalid error. DO NOT UNPLUG THE PHONE: c. Now Edit SIPDefault.txt and change image name to P0S3-07-3-00 When the phone reboots by itself, it will upgrade the SIP image to 7.3 and hopefully you are done. I have found with no explanation that sometimes the phone will take multiple reboot with errors before it will work. Cisco says there is a Checklist of things it is looking for. Apparently this checklist progresses from each successive reboot. If you unplug the phone all you are doing is starting over again. Be patient it could take 20 - 30 minutes for each phone. I am not an expert, I have successfully upgraded 20 phones. This was the best I could figure out through trial and error. If you get a checksum error on the SIP 6.3 image, the problem is with your config files not the image. Good luck. I have found upgrading polycoms easier. Found the phone quality to be very good. They have a bug in their 1.3 image that affects phone to phone dialing on the polycom. That appears to have gone away when I upgraded to 1.4 Gene -- Message: 8 Date: Thu, 3 Feb 2005 13:18:28 + From: Nicolas Chabbey [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Cisco 7960G phone crashes during SIP upgrade To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Hello, I've recently received a Cisco 7960G phone with the factory default SCCP firmware on it. As we're using SIP on our network, the first things i've done was to upgrade but unfortunately the phone just restarted. By looking on the TFTP logs and tcpump output, i've seen that the phone crashed and restarted just after downloading the OS79XX.TXT file, without requesting the image file at any moment. If i'm putting a SCCP image file name (without ext.) on the OS79XX.TXT (begining with P003), the phone doesn't crash and request the respective SEPmac.xml file. Unfortunately (again), just after downloading the xml configuration it hang and restart. I've checked the syntax and they's no error on it, if they's one the phone output the error on the display without crashing. Note that i've both put with and without the load information statement, with the same result. Both statical and DHCP configuration has been tried. Maybe it's an hardware failure or i've miss somethings realy important :) Thanks ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit:
[Asterisk-Users] Re: load balancing 20 asterisk servers
As being said, the cost of HW based solutions is in many cases too expensive to be practical, leave alone to have a spare one to give you true high-availibility. If you complain about DNS caching and timeouts not being respected, you can do a fairly easy thing. As said in the follow-up, you can drop in a data center many tiny boxes. When one box stops working or crashes you can bring down it's interface and give a spare box the same IP of the [now] defunct machine. If the box becomes irresponsive (a real OS crash) and you have IMPI 2.0 capable MoBo's (all intel server boards have that, also some other brands), you can remotely shutdown or reset the machine to avoid IP clashes. Intel has a command line utility (also the graphical console) to manage that, i've using for a while this and is absolutely wonderful. Obiously, you will need a separate LAN with privates IP's to make much of the administration and the DB access, and use the public LAN only for internet-related things, so each box has it's own fixed private IP and only the public IP changes. Indeed, with IMPI 2.0 is possible to remotely power-up a machine (if you are enviromentally concerned... or if the datacenter metters the electricity you use), so you don't need to be running all your spare servers waiting for a failure, maybe only one and have the others shut-down until needed. --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Message: 5 Date: Wed, 2 Feb 2005 21:57:42 -0600 (CST) From: Joe Greco [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Re: load balancing 20 asterisk servers To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii I'm trying to stay away from a software based load balancer cause what happens if that server fails? Its far less likely for a piece of dedicated hardware to fail than an actual computer. You really ought to open up one of those pieces of dedicated hardware sometime and see what's inside. Yep, it's software based. Heck, many of the so-called pieces of dedicated hardware are in fact nothing more than a fancy rack mount PC. Open up something like a CacheFlow server and you find an Intel server motherboard, some propietary software, and that is about it. Heck, go on eBay and pick yourself up some of those nice F5 BigIP ... rack mount PC's. Some of the newer stuff is software based with some ASIC assistance for SSL/compression. I know that F5 has made an effort to not look like a PC anymore, for example, and has integrated some switchlike capabilities in their product. Still, when it comes right down to it, the traffic direction logic in these things is software based. Incidentally: one of the /down/sides to these devices, aside from being hellishly expensive, is that when it blows at 5:01PM on a Thursday evening when Friday is Christmas, even if you have the best service contract, it can be a trying experience to get service. PC's have the distinct advantage that you can actually plan to have spare parts available, and on top of it, you can actually build high quality redundant equipment fairly inexpensively. AIC RMC2N-XP Chassis$150 EMACS R2G-6350P Power $300 SuperMicro P4SC8$300 Intel P4-3.0 Prescott $175 Memory as desired CF Adapter $ 20 1GB CompactFlash Boot $ 60 $1005 Toss in a monster passive heatsink and you have a system that isn't particularly susceptible to the loss of any single moving part. Of course, you have to be able to sysadmin your way out of a cardboard box, so it's not like it's cost-free, but here's the thing: If my hypothetical load balancer fails at 5:01PM on Xmas eve, I can: 1) Grab the cold spare I built because it's cheaper to do two of these than a single expensive HW based solution 2) Configure the hot spare I built into production (again because it's cheaper). 3) Grab a desktop PC and stick a few Intel GigE NIC's in it and go to town. 4) At least have a reasonable chance of figuring out some other way to fix things temporarily. So. What's really interesting is that even some networking hardware is actually just computing gear on steroids. I recently saw a SMC 8624T 24-port gigE switch, and it appears to be a bunch of Broadcom GigE chips with a CPU that runs some (can't recall which) embedded OS. VxWorks? ...
