Re: [Asterisk-Users] chan_capi-cm 0.6.4 random outgoing MSN problem

2006-02-24 Thread Armin Schindler
There are three possibilities to set the CallingPartyNumber (own number for 
outgoing):

1) Set(CALLERID(number)=12345)
   before Dial()

2) Dial(CAPI/contr1/12345:${EXTEN}/)

3) Dial(CAPI/contr1/${EXTEN}/d,...) and 'defaultcid=12345' in capi.conf
   with this defaultcid you can set a number for each interface in capi.conf
   and activate that by the /d option. This is useful when you combined more 
   than one interface into one group, but need to use a correct (and 
   different) number on dialout with e.g. 'g1', because the dialplan 
   doesn't know which interface will be used.

 I think your message solved my problem: I set the master number to be in group
 1 (group=1) in capi.conf and called Dial with CAPI/g1 and it worked perfectly.
 
 However, with group=1 in capi.conf for the master number, at the moment no
 matter what I do I'm getting the master number presented as the CLI. This is
 fine by me because it is exactly what I want, but it is all very confusing :-)

  Subject: [Asterisk-Users] chan_capi-cm 0.6.4 random outgoing MSN problem
  
  I've having a big problem after having upgraded to 1.2.4 and chan_capi-cm
  0.6.4
  
  When making outgoing calls I don't seem to have any control over the CLI
  
  that is presented to the called party -- it can be any one of the MSNs
  allocated to the line, allocated on what seems to be a random basis.
  
  This is on a BT Business Highway line (which is essentially an ISDN2e
  line with two built-in analog ports), configured with 8MSNs alongside the
  single the master digital telephone number for the line.
  
  With a much older version of chan_capi-cm (0.5.4 I think) and Asterisk
  1.0.9 it was always the master number that was presented, and that is
  actually what I want.
  
  Obviously the format of capi.conf has changed between these two versions
  
  of chan_capi-cm, so maybe I'm doing something wrong. Any suggestions
  would be appreciated.
  
  Here's my capi.conf (actual numbers changed to protect the innocent!)
  
  [general]
  nationalprefix=0
  internationalprefix=00
  rxgain=0.8
  txgain=0.8
  ; ulaw=yes;set this, if you live in u-law world instead of
  ; a-law
  
  [123456]
  ;  Master number for line - i.e. number for line before MSNs were
  allocated
  ;  and which still works and still accepts incoming calls.
  isdnmode=msn
  msn=01234123456
  ; incomingmsn=*
  incomingmsn=123456
  controller=1
  softdtmf=1
  accountcode=
  context=isdn-in
  echosquelch=1
  echocancel=yes
  ; echotail=64
  ; callgroup=1
  ; deflect=12345678

  [123457]

  echocancel=yes
  ; echotail=64
  ; callgroup=1
  ; deflect=12345678
  devices=2
  
  {repeated for next 7 MSNs}
  
  
  And in extensions.conf I have:
  
  [globals]
  ISDN1=CAPI/123456
  
  
  [mysip]
  
  ; GET OUTSIDE LINE (ISDN1 - dial 9)
  ignorepat = 9
  exten = exten = _9.,1,Dial(${ISDN1}/${EXTEN:1}/b)
  exten = _9.,2,Playback(busy)
  exten = _9.,3,Hangup
  
  *
  
  I've tried using ISDN1=CAPI/contr1 but it makes no difference.
  I've tried leaving out the isdnmode=msn but it makes no difference
  I've tried entering 01234123456 as the msn= line on all of the msn
  entries in capi.conf but it makes no difference either.
  
  And now I'm out of ideas and any help would be appreciated.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] UK X100P installation help

2006-02-24 Thread Tim Robinson

Paul -
Let me know when you have the cards and if you need any help.   Main 
thing is to ensure that you have each card on a seperate IRQ.  this is 
ESSENTIAL!  Unless the bios is able to assign specific IRQs to specific 
cards it might be a bit of a fiddle.  For £15 you can't go far wrong though.


There are also some new drivers written as a seperate channel visdn 
which I have not yet tried ('if it ain't broke, don't fix...' etc) which 
might be more elegant as they apparently overcome some of the IRQ 
issues.  check the wiki for more details!

You can do it writing:

Oggetto: [Asterisk-Users] pickup problem on Asterisk 1.2.4

Hi everybody,
I'm facing a strange problem after upgrading Asterisk from 1.0.9 to
1.2.4.
Sometimes, when receiving an incoming call from pstn, although my sip
phones ring correctly (I've got both softphones and hardware phones),
noone can pick up the call. Asterisk CLI shows me that the phones are
ringing, then nothing happens, so there's no problem _after_ someone
picked up, simply Asterisk doesn't notice a phone picked up!
Upgrading Asterisk I only did some changes to my dialplan, according to
the upgrade page.
My card is a TE110P, this is my zapata file:

[channels]
language=it

context=default

signalling=pri_cpe
switchtype=euroisdn

overlapdial=yes

pridialplan = unknown
prilocaldialplan = unknown  
nationalprefix = 0
internationalprefix = 00

echocancel=yes
echotraining = 100
echocancelwhenbridged=yes

immediate=no
group=1
language=it
musiconhold=default
channel = 1-15,17-31



Thanks for help,

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Re: Anyone using the GSMgateway from CyberTelecom ?

2006-02-24 Thread Benchev
 Do you have any success receiving the caller id with your TDM400 FXO?
 I have the same problem when I connect the GSM gateway to a SPA3000 FXO
  line and thought this a Sipura's problem. On a phone connected to the GSM
  gateway I can see the callerid, but not on the Sipura's PSTN line ...
 this is no more and no less the same problem as I do have.

 It appears it's then not really the TDM400 FXO module. I have another
 option to test: I do have a similar ATA like the Sipura, but made by
 Grandstream.

 It's here at home; I will take it to the office tomorrow and see if it
 can read the caller id from the GSM gateway.

 Even my gsm unit does indeed pass the callerID when I connect it to a
 cheap, dead simple analog phone!

 BTW: Do you have a manual for the gateway?
Thanks Aldo,
No I do not have a manual and I don't believe such a thing
exist. Actually, that GSM gateway is a Dock-N-Talk kind of thing
with the exception that the handset is imbedded, so pretty much
no need of a manual.
Is your Grandstream a HT-488? If so you might be able to 
simulate the spa3000 case.
Please, let me know what happened.

Best regards,
Benchev

[Asterisk-Users] can't dial some particular numbers (providers ?) with asterisk sip / zap channels

2006-02-24 Thread Simone Cittadini
I have a strange problem when calling some numbers with asterisk, I get 
an hangup for busy condition even if the phone at the other end isn't busy.


I can route the calls via SIP to another carrier and then I have a SIP 
code 486

or I can terminate them on digium cards (E1) and I have an Hangup code 17

I know for sure that one of the numbers is hosted by a different 
provider than the one that has the de-facto monopoly here, so maybe is a 
final-provider problem, even if I don't understand what kind of strange 
signalling can reach that provider from my asterisk, I don't see nothing 
unusual on the cli, is like any other call ended for a real busy condition.


More weird is that with the SIP route the called phone rings once, than 
stops and I get the 486.


What have I've already tried :

Set(CALLERID(number)=[a real traditional phone number]) before the dial

SetTransferCapability(SPEECH)


as far as I know the route calls follow is :

linksys pap --sip-- asterisk (1.2 or 1.0) --iax-- asterisk server (1.2) --zap-- ..?.. 
 Hangup cause 17


linksys pap --sip-- asterisk (1.2 or 1.0) --iax-- asterisk server 
(1.2) --sip-- ..?..

- 486 Busy here (but the end phone ringed once)

Re: [Asterisk-Users] digium TE405P and intel motherboard

2006-02-24 Thread Christian Victor
Well - a Sangoma Card won't bring you your money back. At least not
immidiately. ;-) And a expensive highend echo cancelling card is not a
good replacement for a relatively cheap TE405. So let's try to bring
your existing investion to work.

I presume you checked that your machine is working again if you remove
the TE405. (otherwise: buy new mainboard ;-])

Did the server just don't boot your OS or is the machine dead (as in no
BIOS activity etc.)

Did you put the card in one of the 5V 32bit slots?

Did you try to use the other 32bit slot?

Did you make sure the crad is not broken? (i.E. tried it in an other
machine)


We use a few TE405 on Intel TorreyPines and they at least boot.

Regards,
Chris

[Asterisk-Users] Polycom IP 601 Buddy Watch doesn't work after Asterisk reload

2006-02-24 Thread Marco Maiolini
Hi,

I configured Buddy Watch function on my Polycom IP 601. It works well, until I 
make a reload of Asterisk. After reload, if I give the show hints command in 
Asterisk's CLI, it says that there are no watcher for the extensions that I 
configured.

Before the reload in the CLI appears:

-= Registered Asterisk Dial Plan Hints =-

3002 : SIP/3002 State:Idle  
Watchers 1

3006 : SIP/3006 State:Idle  
 Watchers 1

3003 : SIP/3003 State:Unavailable 
Watchers 1

3001 : SIP/3001 State:Idle  
  Watchers 1

3000 : SIP/3000 State:Idle  
   Watchers 1


After the reload in the CLI appears:

-= Registered Asterisk Dial Plan Hints =-

3002 : SIP/3002 State:Idle   
Watchers 0

3006 : SIP/3006 State:Idle   
Watchers 0

3003 : SIP/3003 State:Unavailable Watchers 0

3001 : SIP/3001 State:Idle
Watchers 0

3000 : SIP/3000 State:Idle
Watchers 0


Asterisk sends a SIP NOTIFY message in which the field Subscription-State is: 
terminated; reason=probation and the phone responds with a ACK.

I have then to restart the phone to reactivate the Buddy Watch function.

Is there anybody that can help me with this problem? Is it a problem of the PBX 
 or a problem of the phone?

Thanks in advance, regards,

Marco.

Re: SV: [Asterisk-Users] Problems with voicemail

2006-02-24 Thread Joseph Tanner
This probably has nothing to do with your problem, but I had a problem
with similar symptoms, except asterisk was actually crashing whenever
I tried to access voicemail.  It would sometimes say some digits, but
never got far (never got as far as the actual message).  Problem
turned out, crazily enough, to be having zaptel compiled with
CONFIG_ZAPTEL_MMX.  Commented that out, recompiled, worked fine. 
Uncommented again, recompiled, and it would crash every time I
accessed voicemail.  I'm running CentOS 4, with a 2.6 kernel, and did
use the make linux26 command.  Oh, and I did read the warning about
compiling mmx with an AMD processor, but this server has an Intel
Celeron in it, so it should have been ok.  Oh well.

 Yes. Maybe it is already fixed in mISDN and you have an older version?
Quite current. Checkout of mqueue branch from three days ago. Well I'll
report a bug.

   If you use mISDN, why don't you use chan_misdn?
  How reliable is that? Any experience?
 
 I don't have any experience with mISDN. I just noticed the big work going on

I'll try this as a second route. I'd prefer chan_capi though, because I
have used it for quite some time ...

Thanks a lot for your help.

mailto:asterisk-users@lists.digium.com 
 
Hello list,
Is there any way to use a2billing without the IVR for the sip/iax users. 
(authentication is done by the user id and pass as user registers with 
asterisk).
 
I want to dial the destination number to the asterisk. for example:
 
user dials,

exten =_011.,1,DeadAGI(a2billing)
 
system will connect the destination and bill them. but right now we need 
to enter the destination followed by the IVR prompts which i dont want.
 
Thanks in advanved if anybody can help me.
 


Yes, this is all configurable from /etc/asterisk/a2billing.conf

If you set use_dnid=YES then a2billing will pick up the destination from 
the number the user dialled.


Set the following to turn off the IVR stuff:

; Play the balance to the user after the authentication (values : yes - no)
say_balance_after_auth=NO

; Play the balance to the user after the call (values : yes - no)
say_balance_after_call=NO

; Play the time the user can call (values : yes - no)
say_timetocall=NO

Hope this helps.

 Simple formula:

 2. % of revenue derived from phone usage
 3. =Cost of downtime by using SoHo or consumer gear.
 
 It's not a question of if a SoHo or low cost device will screw up, it 
 is a question of when. This is 23 years of experience talking.
 
 Where I work, the value of #3 above is $16 Cdn a *second*. We are

 statements that a $700 switch or a $400 phone isn't worth it. Huh??

Absolutely right! for something as critical as switches  cabling I always
recommend to spend real money. Don't ever try to save money any equipment
that is required to operate the business. (Had very good experience with HP
procurves over the last 10 years or so). There is no point buying netgear or
other low-cost switches for a business ever. The cost saving of being able
to pin-point a cabling/NIC/bandwidth problem down to the port on the switch
easily and quickly is wonderful. Combined with SNMP and all the other
goodies good switches come with, our clients save a lot of money by paying
me less for my time ( d'oh ;-) ). The difference can also cause unnecessary
delays and therefor echo in the path. For example, procurve switches
typically have 13ms switching time, the high-end netgears about 21ms. As
soon as you stack a couple of switches you are talking 26ms vs 42ms extra
delay in the path!

I see no reason however to spend $400 on a single phone though, because if a
single phone breaks, it's not going to bring your business to a standstill,
is it? (I guess unless you only have one in the first place ;-) )

[Asterisk-Users] How can I debug spandsp?

2006-02-24 Thread Victor Alvarez
Hi,
 I'm trying to use the spandsp fax-back facility and despite I can send and
receive faxes, this is not working fine. I would like to get a debug of what
is going on. I am using the flag debug, but I don't know if txfax is
generating any log information or where it is saving it. I just don't find
anything.

My line in extensions.conf is:

And from the fax machine I get the fax signal and 'receive error'. That's
all.

Could anybody tell me what to do to trace this, please?

[Asterisk-Users] What's with Indications/SetLanguage/Zaptel/RingBack ?

2006-02-24 Thread Frederic Jean



Good morning everybody,

Can someone explain to me the interconnection 
between
thesefour things: indications.conf, 
SetLanguage(), zaptel.conf 
and ring-back ? If 
there is any !! :- )

I am having this case where some users cannot hear 
ring back
from a DeadAGI script and it seems to be 
interconnected to these items.

These users are from the iaxfriends table, 
they_can_ hear ring-back from
a Dial command directly in extensions.conf, but 
_not_ from a DeadAGI
that performs the same Dial.

SIP users, directly defined in sip.conf, don't have 
any problem.

Both dial the same IAX route.

At some point I had no indications.conf and Eric 
Wieling suggested
to add it, which is what I did, and from there SIP 
users in sip.conf started
to have the ring-back, but still, my users from the 
iaxfriend table still
can't hear it.

I use asterisk 1.0.9

Should I add "language=br" in the iaxfriend source 
code to make it work ?
I tried to add SetLanguage in extensions.conf but 
without real success.

I included the concerned files here, if anybody 
could give me a hint, it would
be really appreciated !

Thanks in advance,
Frederic

Hello Benchev.

the unit I have has also a serial port.

So while it is really easy, a matter of plugging in cables, sim, power,
to set up for receiving and making calls, I have no idea how to send and
receive sms messages.

Or what should/can be done with the serial port. I guess there must be a
use for it, or one could save the effort to put one there.

I do have a GS HT-488; but while in the office I was in such a hurry
that I did no test. Sorry!

I'll be back there next week; I'll let you know how the test will end.

I am using IP10s also 
It was working fine, but you needed to go into telnet mode,
to activate the busy lamp, with the hint option ...
moreover, if you wanted to pick up the phone call,
then you needed also to add another telnet command to handle this pickup !

I know that swissvoice has now build 20, which allows all this through the web GUI interface !

Hope, this helps !

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Re: Asterisk 1.2.4 IAX2 New Jitterbuffer Tuning

2006-02-24 Thread Adam Robins
I was using IAX2 with ILBC and no trunking.  I also set the
resyncthreshold=-1 to turn it off.  Still had major jitter problems.

Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Re: Asterisk 1.2.4 IAX2 New Jitterbuffer
Tuning

  After 2 weeks of messing around with every conceivable IAX2 and 
  jitterbuffer configuration, I switched to SIP yesterday.  
  Complaints went from 10-20 per day to ZERO.  Literally overnight.
  
  I wonder if this is an ILBC frame size issue of some sort?  Seems
odd.
 
 I've got to add my name to the list here.  We're just using GSM over 
 our IAX links, and our jitterbuffer values look like this:
 
 maxjitterbuffer=1000
 resyncthreshold=1000
 maxjitterinterps=10
 
 For the most part the new jitterbuffer actually yields much better 
 quality than the old jitterbuffer, but when the resyncs happen, it's 
 like the call has a lot of trouble getting get back on track.  It 
 flounders for quite a while, with badly broken audio, sometimes up to 
 20 seconds before coming back.  I've tried hanging up as soon as event

 starts happening and then immediately calling the same number, and the

 channel comes back with crystal clarity.  So it seems to me like there
is something askew with the resync.

If memory serves correctly, I believe I remember Mark applying a fix to
the iax jitterbuffer and that fix had something to do with a counter
rollover or something like that. That fix happened in the last week or
so.

I'm not sure if that would have been included in v1.2.4 or not, but
might be worth a little research.

I also opened a bug a month or two ago involving ilbc and iax, and
someone else confirmed it was a bug. Don't have the bug number handy,
but the problem related to a combination of iax trunking, jitterbuffer
and ilbc.
Disabling one of those consistently bypassed the problem.

Anyway, hearing to that tone for more than a minute is

Does anyone know the opposite application, i.e. an

tone and displays the quality in any unit?

If not, I'll think about developing one.



No, but it sure would be nice to have some tools to diagnose
quality issues.
  

Maybe the first approach should be to setup a test extension for
recording the tone. The idea is to get best resolution possible in real
time. Then process it as much as needed to get the info you want. Such
an approach would give you more flexibility. For example, you could
automatically place periodic test calls to various servers and have the
recordings then forwarded to one server for analysis. That would
minimize the impact on production asterisk servers.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Which Quad Port FXO is Best?

I'm looking to handle 3 PSTN lines with my Asterisk server.  I have a

noise, terrible silence and virtually no ability to use DTMF in IVRs.  
I really wish the TDM22B worked, because I much prefer storing all my

I see several 4 port FXO Analog/SIP gateways on voipsupply.com:

I know it would be cheaper to buy two more Sipuras, but it might be 
worth the extra $$ to cut down on the power adapters and have a 
centralized point of administration, especially if it didn't involve 
dozens of browser mouse clicks to 3 separate HTTP servers.  
Reliability is the primary criterium, though.


Can anybody give any recommendations?  And are these digium problems 
unusual?


We now have three installs of the Sangoma A200 (with echo can) and love

Hi Jean-Marc

I tried removing the call-limit setting.  It still doesn't work.  I am

Do I still need to activate the busy lamp on the IP10S' or is this only

It was working fine, but you needed to go into telnet mode,

moreover, if you wanted to pick up the phone call,
then you needed also to add another telnet command to handle this pickup !
 
I know that swissvoice has now build 20, which allows all this through 
the web GUI interface !
 
Hope, this helps !

 Do the extension phones need to have any settings changed to enable

I could be wrong but I think setting call-limit breaks hints in 1.2.x

This is what finally forced me to get to grips with the GROUP()

for limiting calls.

Can't help much more than that though as we use Snom's with hints.

[Asterisk-Users] Important: Application DIALPLAN STANDARD/GUIDELINES needs to be established.

2006-02-24 Thread James Gardiner


Hello Asterisk community.
We have a small User-group in Melbourne Australia.
Recently I brought up the issue of STANDARDS for dialing Applications on 
a PBX.


This generated some interest but also the fact little has been done on 
this topic.

Below is a rundown of our THREAD. (start from bottom and go up)

I myself, feel this to be an important issue.  With Asterisk being so 
programmable, anything can be done.  But should it.  I would like to see 
some type of guide line or standard for extension layouts.


We have not been able to find any reference to this.  However, I hope 
the greater Asterisk community has, and if so, please share.


Thanks,
James




Well, it comes down to personal preference I think, we use *1 for VM, 
and check CLID to take a caller directly to their VM box if it exists, 
vairous other internal functions from *1-9, other externally accessible 
functions from *10-19, conference rooms *20-39, etc...  We've had no 
problems, but then we run a controlled set of end-user hardware.  I 
suppose for a rollout with unkown/mixed hardware some research is 
required to determine the reserved functions.


So, yes, two ideas might be to have a prefix (that is ensured never to 
be used in real number space!) for all functions, the other would be to 
have a number to dial that drops the caller into a context containing 
all features, possible even with voice prompts...


Just idle thoughts...


James Gardiner wrote:

Hello all,
Well, I would like to bring note to this topic as an important issue.
I am working on a AMP like application and want to standardize on
number sequences.  *MAIL and *PARK sound like good ideas, however, they
are long button sequences.
Using * for applications, I feel, looks a bit shaky as its well used
with no formula by many companies for DND and other things.
So for example. *PARK is *7275.   I am pretty sure *72 is some type of
feature on Cisco/sipura handsets so, the handset will upset these
sequence of numbers.

I was looking at bringing it all to a standard or 1 application
number Park 17
VM 15  direct 152000 for extension 2000. 15*2000 direct to
voicemail for 2000 Listen to MOH 1100
Test dial in context 1000
Etc. (There are many other options to consider.)

Something like this;
Could the group members please make comment on what each of them sees
advantages and disadvantages of this idea.
Or any better ones.

I am really open to suggestions. I really need to solidify the dial
plan and manual.

Thanks,
James

(*69 for recent calls, etc). So I just went and made up my own, based
on words: *MAIL (*6245), *PARK, etc etc. They're easy for users to

For example. There does not appear to be a standard for dialling

Re: [Asterisk-Users] mpg123 alternative?

2006-02-24 Thread Rich Adamson
  Is there any particular reason for the native file format stuff to be in
  asterisk-addons as opposed to that code being merged into trunk?
 
 It isn't. You are mis-interpreting the information in this thread (it's
 been unclearly stated anyway).
 
 The only portion that is in asterisk-addons is format_mp3, which allows
 Asterisk to natively open MP3 files. However, that is of little use,
 when you can use sox to convert those files into
 slinear/ulaw/alaw/gsm/etc. so that no transcoding is needed when the
 audio is played to a caller.

Right on... I did mis-interpret it without a doubt. Part of that was
oriented around the thought that I was going to have to convert all
files (not just mp3's), and that obviously would be a very high
maintenance item over time. I read stuff into it that I shouldn't
have, and jumped to the wrong conclusion. More coffee, please! ;)

One of the reasons for wanting to address mp3's (natively) is that
some of our bank customers subscribe to an annual service from another
firm to provide them with professional message on hold services.
If those messages where provided to the bank in mp3 format, I was
looking for a relatively simply way for non-technical * users to
copy the file and play it without the need for external players,
conversion steps, etc. Scripting the copy process and doing the sox
conversion will accomplish the same goal.

Thanks

RE: [Asterisk-Users] What business IP phone to use

2006-02-24 Thread David Ankers
Aha, micro seconds in networking terms is normally written usecs or us
(actually it's the greek letter mu as in ulaw) rather than ms which are
milliseconds seconds - what had me puzzled was that it was stated that this
could harm the voice path!

 The difference can also cause unnecessary delays and therefor echo in the
 path. For example, procurve switches typically have 13ms switching time,
 the high-end netgears about 21ms. As soon as you stack a couple of
 switches you are talking 26ms vs 42ms extra delay in the path!

There is then only 8 usecs between the two switches, how on earth would this
make any difference to the voice path at all? Let alone induce any echo... 

Obviously the originally poster didn't understand the difference. And based
on this, he's probably advising people not to use Netgear switches for
voice, oh dear.

Are you sure those switch figures are right? 16ms delay in the switch path
sounds a bit long. Cisco's mid-range switches like the 2950 have switching
times measured in micro seconds. Then again a 2626 procurve is only around
$700.

 Simple formula:

 2. % of revenue derived from phone usage
 3. =Cost of downtime by using SoHo or consumer gear.
 
 It's not a question of if a SoHo or low cost device will screw up, it 
 is a question of when. This is 23 years of experience talking.
 
 Where I work, the value of #3 above is $16 Cdn a *second*. We are 
 below
500
 employees, so we fall into the SMB segment. Sometimes I'm appalled by 
 statements that a $700 switch or a $400 phone isn't worth it. Huh?? 
 Maybe

Absolutely right! for something as critical as switches  cabling I always
recommend to spend real money. Don't ever try to save money any equipment
that is required to operate the business. (Had very good experience with HP
procurves over the last 10 years or so). There is no point buying netgear or
other low-cost switches for a business ever. The cost saving of being able
to pin-point a cabling/NIC/bandwidth problem down to the port on the switch
easily and quickly is wonderful. Combined with SNMP and all the other
goodies good switches come with, our clients save a lot of money by paying
me less for my time ( d'oh ;-) ). The difference can also cause unnecessary
delays and therefor echo in the path. For example, procurve switches
typically have 13ms switching time, the high-end netgears about 21ms. As
soon as you stack a couple of switches you are talking 26ms vs 42ms extra
delay in the path!

I see no reason however to spend $400 on a single phone though, because if a
single phone breaks, it's not going to bring your business to a standstill,
is it? (I guess unless you only have one in the first place ;-) )

Its my understanding the cell phone coordinates are sent to the cell phone
provider and their equipment reads (and holds) that data. Its not part
of any data available to you in any form unless you talk to the cell
provider and convience them you have a valid need. Highly unlikely in
the US anyway. Even if you could convience them to provide it, they
would likely demaand some sort of out-of-band data transmission facility.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Polycom IP 601 Buddy Watch doesn't work after Asterisk reload

 Asterisk sends a SIP NOTIFY message in which the field Subscription-State is: 
 terminated; reason=probation and the phone responds with a ACK.

 I have then to restart the phone to reactivate the Buddy Watch function.

 Is there anybody that can help me with this problem? Is it a problem of the 
 PBX  or a problem of the phone?


 It is a phone issue as the phone is supposed to try and resubscribe
after 60 seconds which is an attribute in that message, but it
doesn't. However, bug 6047 in Mantis has some code to try and provide
a workaround for this issue. Testing would be greatly appreciated.

 Hope anybody can share their thoughts and insight on this.

Using the TDM400 card for any form of fax'ing (or modem use) is well known
to be unreliable and, in most cases, totally unusable. The issue has been
discussed many times over the last two years or so. There are no known
workarounds.

Its my understanding that lots of folks have spandsp working via T1
and/or PRI interfaces. The issues associated with the TDM400 card do
not apply to the T1 cards.

[Asterisk-Users] Problem with T1 installation

2006-02-24 Thread Nitin Joshi




Hi All,

Ihave installed a Digium TE110P card on an 
Asterisk 1.2.1 system. Its connected directly to the PSTN. But I am unable to 
make outbound calls on the zap channels. The light on the card is green. 
Asterisk CLI shows all 24 channels when I give the command 'zap show channels'. 
I also noticed that Asterisk CLI shows an incoming call every few seconds on the 
24th channel. This must be some kind of a timing signal. This is he first time I 
am configuring a T1 so I must have done something wrong I guess.

These are the commands I used to load the zap 
module:

modprobe zaptel
modprobe wcte11xp
ztcfg -vvv

---

my zaptel.conf is as 
follows:

span=1,1,0,esf,b8zsem=1-24loadzone = 
usdefaultzone=us
--

the zapata.conf is as 
follows:

[trunkgroups][channels]

group=1language=ensignalling=em_wusecallerid=yescallerid=asreceivedcontext=defaultechocancel=64echocancelwhenbridged=yesrxgain=1.0txgain=1.0channel

= 3-24
--

In extensions.conf i have 
specified the following line:

[default]
exten = 
_ZX,1,Dial(zap/g1/${EXTEN},15,tr)

--

When I try to dialusing the T1 lineI 
get the following error :

Feb 24 06:56:53 NOTICE[5724]: 
app_dial.c:1010 dial_exec_full: Unable to create channel of type 'Zap' (cause 0

Any ideas guys?

 Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, the conduit for the provisioning of
 the new building is unsuitable for fibre (too many sharp bends) and we
 can't core out the concrete and put in a new conduit because of obstacles
 in the way that make laying new conduit impractical, so we are stuck with
 (existing) copper. We already have copper-to-copper connections of
 different types (electrical, security etc) between the buildings so a
 lightning strike is going to hose us no matter what.

In that case, put opto-couplers in place to protect both ends.
Fibre/ethernet transceivers at both ends with a short run of
fibre will protect both ends. Lightening strikes are only one
problem, look to see what happens when one building attempts
to ground itself through the copper cable to the other side.
I would also question the legality of connecting both building
with what I assume is mains electricity.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] GPS-enabled cell phone/PDA

2006-02-24 Thread Juergen K. Zick

Hi There,

this is very much dependent from your provider, your PDA/cell phone and the 
network. For GSM networks in Europe e.g. the providers have different types 
of information available through the CB channels of their base stations.
This data can always be read and stored in your SMARTPHONE/PDA and when 
that has GPS data, then this data as well ...
One nice examples are celltrack or gsmmon9210 for SYMBIAN based phones. 
What you do on the phone with the data is your business ;-) ..
There are web-based databases available which show the exact location of 
the next station you're connected to. If you have GPS locally, than you 
have not to rely on thie cell data.
Cell data inside cities can give your location as exact as to 100m, in 
rural areas it can be up to 5 km I suppose.


Of course you can send the received data via SMS to other systems or with 
GPRS or WLAN access more or less online to Internet based services.


With TDMA or IDEN phone systems which are used outside of Europe I have no 
experiences at all, sorry ...


-- Jürgen



 I would like to capture the lat/lon coordinates from a GPS-enabled cell
 phone or PDA.  Is this possible?  Must I subscribe to this information
 from the cellphone network provider, or can I capture it without charge?

 What devices will broadcast the coordinates?  Is there a device that
 will broadcast its position inband that can be captured by Asterisk?
 Can an SMS message include coordinates?

 The subject will willingly carry the device and will be aware that his
 location is being monitored, so privacy rights are not an issue.  The
 subject will make periodic calls to the Asterisk server in order to
 record his movements.

 Does anyone have experience in this area?

Its my understanding the cell phone coordinates are sent to the cell phone
provider and their equipment reads (and holds) that data. Its not part

Re: [Asterisk-Users] What business IP phone to use

2006-02-24 Thread Paul
I have seen some very expensive switches fail. Nice thing about lower
cost devices is that you can afford to have spares. If you stick to a
standard way of labeling and connecting wires you can use good open
source monitoring software to detect switch failure. If you allow people
to randomly connect to a bank of switches it is not so easy to quickly
find and remedy such problems.

The more expensive switches are good if you are going to take advantage
of the features they offer. I have recently seen situations like
employees installing things like camera and itunes software that caused
local network problems. Managed switches allowed immediate remote
disconnection of the workstations. At this customer site the fancy
switches are used for all workstations and some 3rd party
servers(security video system is a good example). However, the
customer-owned servers I installed are plugged into a $40 switch. Those
servers are properly managed so there is no need for the features found
in the more expensive switches.

There is then only 8 usecs between the two switches, how on earth would this

Obviously the originally poster didn't understand the difference. And based

Are you sure those switch figures are right? 16ms delay in the switch path
sounds a bit long. Cisco's mid-range switches like the 2950 have switching
times measured in micro seconds. Then again a 2626 procurve is only around
$700.

It's not a question of if a SoHo or low cost device will screw up, it

Absolutely right! for something as critical as switches  cabling I always
recommend to spend real money. Don't ever try to save money any equipment
that is required to operate the business. (Had very good experience with HP
procurves over the last 10 years or so). There is no point buying netgear or
other low-cost switches for a business ever. The cost saving of being able
to pin-point a cabling/NIC/bandwidth problem down to the port on the switch
easily and quickly is wonderful. Combined with SNMP and all the other
goodies good switches come with, our clients save a lot of money by paying
me less for my time ( d'oh ;-) ). The difference can also cause unnecessary
delays and therefor echo in the path. For example, procurve switches
typically have 13ms switching time, the high-end netgears about 21ms. As
soon as you stack a couple of switches you are talking 26ms vs 42ms extra
delay in the path!

I see no reason however to spend $400 on a single phone though, because if a
single phone breaks, it's not going to bring your business to a standstill,
is it? (I guess unless you only have one in the first place ;-) )

3) If 2 is true *WHERE* it could be possible to buy this true adapter: on

My opinion is that it could be an issue related to the operating system: I
think I should do something similar to what I did on

usb-related devices under /dev/zap. Unfortunately
I don't know anything about Linux kernel enumeration process. Also, does
exist any debugging tool for wcusb ?
Wcusb is up and running, is the only in the system ( I removed the wcusb.ko

That's a great rule of thumb, but the reality isn't quite so black and white.

A direct lightning strike is not going to draw *any* significant current 
through the ethernet cable, as the moment you try to pull significant 
current, those cables will either open up or vaporize due to IR losses in 
such small gage wire.  You'll have far more current draw through the (I'm 
assuming) metal conduit, which is already grounded.

Yes, you may introduce grounding loops and these will cause other (sometimes 
significant) issues but they have all been solved before.  The best solution 
is to simply take a pair of media converters with a fiber patch cable between 
them, space them out adequately and hope for the best.  You're already going 
to have a conduction path through the power supplies of the media converters 
but with an isolation transformer and appropriate surge arrestors it's about 
as best as you are going to be able to do.

Electrical faults are *easily* dealt with with appropriate fusing, surge 
arrestors, isolation and plain old common sense.

I work in the power electronics industry; we regularly deal with lightning 
strikes (both direct and close call style) and while there is very little 
to protect you from a direct strike (we use station-class arrestors) there is 
a LOT you can do to minimize grounding or loop problems when wiring between 
buildings.  Sometimes fiber just doesn't cut it, so no, it's not just 
stupid.

Hi!

I am using tdm400 cards for receiving faxes. It worked quite out of the box. I 
installed spandsp for the rxfax application only.

I use it as phone/fax switch:
All incoming calls are answered automatically to listen whether its a fax or 
not. If it is a fax, the call is forwarded to the buil-in fax extension, 
otherwise the analog phones (all on tdm400) rings.

It works without problems. Its for a small company (about a few faxes per 
hour)

Hi All,
 
I have installed a Digium TE110P card on an Asterisk 1.2.1 system. Its 
connected directly to the PSTN. But I am unable to make outbound calls 
on the zap channels. The light on the card is green. Asterisk CLI 
shows all 24 channels when I give the command 'zap show channels'. I 
also noticed that Asterisk CLI shows an incoming call every few 
seconds on the 24th channel. This must be some kind of a timing 
signal. This is he first time I am configuring a T1 so I must have 
done something wrong I guess.


T1s require a D (Data) channel, unless connecting to a channel bank, It 
should be 23 voice 1 data.  Also, I would strongly suggest moving to 1.2.4

I have been able to clear it easily by restarting zaptel.
Thanks in advance!

So we had another Yellow Alarm last night and I have retrieved the logs from the Mitel. It had a Red Alarm.Here seems to be the order of events:Mitel PBX:³2006-FEB-24 02:44:54 T1/BRI card at 02 06 00 00 ³

³ Alarm level change due to Bay 02 trunks Asterisk:Feb 24 05:26:54 NOTICE[24210] chan_zap.c: Alarm cleared on channel 1So it seems the Mitel is reaching a loss threshold and setting yellow alarm. Asterisk is in turn detecting the yellow alarm. I guess it's a problem with the Mitel then. We've had problems with it in the past but they cleared up and we hadn't had an issue in months. Nothing has changed at either end but we've been hit with issues for the last 3 days.
Here is what I have found about the alarms:Red 
  Alarm
  This is 
  a local equipment alarm. It indicates that the incoming signal has been 
  corrupted for a number of seconds. The red alarm shows up visually on 
  the equipment that detects the failure. This equipment will then begin 
  sending a yellow alarm as its outbound signal. 
  
  Yellow 
  Alarm
  The yellow 
  alarm alerts the network that a failure has been detected. The yellow 
  alarm pattern has a number of different definitions. The most common 
  D4 definition is to set 1 bit of every channel to a ZERO.

 Its my understanding the cell phone coordinates are sent to the cell phone

 the US anyway. Even if you could convience them to provide it, they
 would likely demaand some sort of out-of-band data transmission facility.

GSM networks have the Cell ID available to the phone, however that's not
much use without the location of the cellsite.

There are now location based services, whereby you can query the network
and they'll give out an approximate location (most cells are sectored
[6 sectors per cell) which gives a direction, the cell also knows what
power the phone is transmitting with, and the power it's received so can
make a good approximation of where the phone is (within 60 degrees
angle). However it's likely a phone will be picked up by several cells,
so the network can triangulate and make a better aproximation.

Making the information available to end-users is problematic due to
privacy issues, unless the user explicitly agrees to give the info away.

With GPS units, the info is stored in the phone and can send it out
using SMS or other means.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] What business IP phone to use

On Wed, 22 Feb 2006 18:02:27 -0800, mustardman29 wrote:
Just the person I have been looking for.  If you don't mind, would it be
possible to get your opinion on feature for feature comparisons between the
501 and 480i CT(not including cordless phone).

Things like programmable buttons, display, dialing button quality, and most
importantly, handset and speakerphone quality.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I used the IP600 for about a year on my desk, and several IP500s
elsewhere around the place. It's a home office but I work from home
full time so it's a real working office environment.

I found that the physical quality of the Polycom phones was absolutely
top notch. They're a joy to use. Completely professional and very
reliable. But they're not perfect. They're a little harder to
provision. They're very configurable but that also adds to the
complexity. I had mine TFTP loading firmware and a common speed dial
directory from an XML file on my Astlinux server. The phones take a
fair amount of time to boot and force a reboot when you change many of
their settings. You can spend an afternoon repeatedly rebooting the
phone as you manually work out its initial configuration. Of course
Polycom doesn't support Asterisk, but others seem to fill this void
well enough.

The IP600 and IP500 are very similar but the differences are
considerable. The IP600 supports 6 line buttons and has a much better
LCD. Higher resolution, but still not backlit. Once you've used the 600
it'll be hard to go
back to the 500 just because the display is not as nice. The IP500
provides only 3 line buttons. Both phones support multiple
registrations.

The Aastra 480 is the only thing that I've seen that comes close to the
Polycom's. Physically it's just about as solid. Not quite as hefty in
the hand, but very nice. The LCD display is backlit. This is a major
advantage if you ever work in dim lighting. All other
manufacturers...LISTEN UP...this is a really big deal! I can't believe
how long its taken for someone to realise this fact.

Aastra configuration was a LOT easier both manually on the phone and
remotely. The on-phone menus are very easy to navigate and I almost
didn't bother setting up the central provisioning. With only a few
phones I could get by without it. Firmware and configs can be loaded
via tftp, ftp or http.

The on-phone directory and call logs are comparable on all three the I
have used. Actually, I prefer the way SNOM phones handle this as they
require fewer button presses. The Aastra phone makes it especially easy
to delete an entire call log with only a couple of button presses.

The 480 supports up to 9 lines with any 4 active at on time, or so I'm
told. I have mine registered for four lines so that incomming PSTN,
FWD, Gizmo and Skype calls each ring a different line. The latest
firmware supposedly support BLF indications but I've not used this.
It's really easy to assign speed dials to the six programmable keys on
the LCD. In fact, almost all of the buttons can be reassigned to new
functions. Also you can write XML applications that put the LCD to work
as an interactive menu.

Mostly I live and die by speakerphone quality. I think that the
Polycom's have a little edge on the Aastra phone, but not by much. If I
need to rework my entire system I'll probably migrate to all Aastra
phones.

Audio quality using the handset is excellent on all of them. Even on
the cordless handset with the 480i CT.

They all support POE...which I use to keep the phone system up during
power failures. I had to buy the injectors separately for the Aastra 
IP600 phones. The IP500s came with injector cables. 

The big dissappointment in my SIP phone testing was the Zultys 4x5. It
just feels cheap and many functions are too counterintuitive. I really
like the idea of the local FXO but they were never able to tell me how
to get the FXO port forwarded to the PBX for VM. Zultys provides no end
user support except through dealers and the dealers I dealt with didn't
know much about the specifics of the Zultys firmware.

Also, I'm curious about the newest SNOM phones. Some time ago I used a
SNOM 200 and like the way the web based I/F was integrated into the use
of the phone beyond simply configuration. You could access the speed
dials and place a call from the web I/F. You could also dial the phone
from a link or shortcut to a url pointed at the phone. That's a fair
substitute for desktop TAPI. If they've taken this any further it could
be very good.

I've not tried any of the lesser phones like Grandstream or Linksys.
Life's too short to use a cheap phoneat least if your budget
permits better.

dno
 luck, faxes come in as garbage or broken or with blank lines.
 
 Anybody has successfully done this? Any tips.. Also I have some ideas:
 
 1. Is it really possible to get fxes on a fax machine using ATAs like the
 sipura 2002? Even using ulaw and pass-thru, is it possible?
 
 2. Since the faxes is coming from PSTN thru the card, I guess asterisk
will
 always stay in the middle right? No way around this.
 
 3. Im also trying to receive faxes usign a TE110P card with spandsp,
unicall
 and E1 R2MFC, no luck also, some stuff, garbage and broken faxes. Anybody
 done this sucessfuly?
 
 Hope anybody can share their thoughts and insight on this.

Using the TDM400 card for any form of fax'ing (or modem use) is well known
to be unreliable and, in most cases, totally unusable. The issue has been
discussed many times over the last two years or so. There are no known
workarounds.

Its my understanding that lots of folks have spandsp working via T1
and/or PRI interfaces. The issues associated with the TDM400 card do
not apply to the T1 cards.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] GPS-enabled cell phone/PDA

2006-02-24 Thread Rusty Dekema
In the US, Sprint's CDMA network will do the fancy GPS+AFLT business,
but like someone else mentioned, it only sends the location data back
to Sprint's network. There is an API that you can use to access this
data for your handsets, but you have to pay some amount of money for
each location fix.

Sprint's iDEN phones (formerly Nextel) contain GPS units that can be
accessed from the phone's serial port, and I am pretty sure that the
GPS data can be accessed from a J2ME applet running in the phone. Such
an applet could then make an appropriate HTTP request to a web/app
server you run, in order to upload the data. However, the GPS data
received using this method is obtained using _only_ GPS, with no AFLT
or other form of assistance from the cellular network. The
significance of that, of course, is that you will not be able to get a
GPS fix in locations where a regular GPS receiver can't get a fix,
such as indoors in most cases.

2006-02-24 Thread andrew matthews
maybe you didn't want suggestions, but too bad :).

My favorite up until recently was the polycom 501 and I found it was
good quality and clear calls and priced well. but the production of te
phone is slowing down so I bought a few linksysspa941. and iVll
tell you I have a new  favorite phone. its slick, provisioning is a
breeeze and the call quality with built in qos is fantastic.

I wasn't a big fan of grandstream products they seem to be cheaply
made and i've had a few fail. but they do work.

talking about my biased opinion I don't have onee, i'm a hobby
programmer who works for a company that resells voip services and we
use polycom and linksys. I just provide support for all phones so I
kow how things work and don't work.

I hope this helps. thanks

 I ended up buying a Grandstream GXP2000 and an Aastra 9133i to test so I
 pretty much know what those two phones are about.  Lot's of people talking
 about Polycom phones but they still seem to have their problems and since
 they don't officially support Asterisk I have my concerns.  I really don't
 want to have to keep buying phones to find out for myself as it get's
 expensive real fast.

 Is there any unbiased comparison of various phones and features anywhere.
 If someone wrote a book I'd buy it but it would probably be obsolete before
 it was published with the rate of new IP phone introductions and firmware
 revisons.  I hear some people praising the GXP2000 phones and I gotta wonder
 what they are smokin (regardless of firmware revison) so I just don't know
 who to believe anymore.

Just the person I have been looking for.  If you don't mind, would it be
possible to get your opinion on feature for feature comparisons between the
501 and 480i CT(not including cordless phone).

Things like programmable buttons, display, dialing button quality, and most
importantly, handset and speakerphone quality.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I used the IP600 for about a year on my desk, and several IP500s
elsewhere around the place. It's a home office but I work from home
full time so it's a real working office environment.

I found that the physical quality of the Polycom phones was absolutely
top notch. They're a joy to use. Completely professional and very
reliable. But they're not perfect. They're a little harder to
provision. They're very configurable but that also adds to the
complexity. I had mine TFTP loading firmware and a common speed dial
directory from an XML file on my Astlinux server. The phones take a
fair amount of time to boot and force a reboot when you change many of
their settings. You can spend an afternoon repeatedly rebooting the
phone as you manually work out its initial configuration. Of course
Polycom doesn't support Asterisk, but others seem to fill this void
well enough.

The IP600 and IP500 are very similar but the differences are
considerable. The IP600 supports 6 line buttons and has a much better
LCD. Higher resolution, but still not backlit. Once you've used the 600
it'll be hard to go
back to the 500 just because the display is not as nice. The IP500
provides only 3 line buttons. Both phones support multiple
registrations.

The Aastra 480 is the only thing that I've seen that comes close to the
Polycom's. Physically it's just about as solid. Not quite as hefty in
the hand, but very nice. The LCD display is backlit. This is a major
advantage if you ever work in dim lighting. All other
manufacturers...LISTEN UP...this is a really big deal! I can't believe
how long its taken for someone to realise this fact.

Aastra configuration was a LOT easier both manually on the phone and
remotely. The on-phone menus are very easy to navigate and I almost
didn't bother setting up the central provisioning. With only a few
phones I could get by without it. Firmware and configs can be loaded
via tftp, ftp or http.

The on-phone directory and call logs are comparable on all three the I
have used. Actually, I prefer the way SNOM phones handle this as they
require fewer button presses. The Aastra phone makes it especially easy
to delete an entire call log with only a couple of button presses.

The 480 supports up to 9 lines with any 4 active at on time, or so I'm
told. I have mine registered for four lines so that incomming PSTN,
FWD, Gizmo and Skype calls each ring a different line. The latest
firmware supposedly support BLF indications but I've not used this.
It's really easy to assign speed dials to the six programmable keys on
the LCD. In fact, almost all of the buttons can be reassigned to new
functions. Also you can write XML applications that put the LCD to work
as an interactive menu.

Mostly I live and die by speakerphone quality. I think that the
Polycom's have a little edge on the Aastra phone, but not by much. If I
need to rework my entire system I'll probably migrate to all Aastra
phones.

Audio quality using the handset is excellent on all of them. Even on
the cordless handset with the 480i CT.

They all support POE...which I use to keep the phone system up during
power failures. I had to buy the injectors separately for the Aastra 
IP600 phones. The IP500s came with injector cables. 

The big dissappointment in my SIP phone testing was the Zultys 4x5. It
just feels cheap and many functions are too counterintuitive. I really
like the idea of the local FXO but they were never able to tell me how
to get the FXO port forwarded to the PBX for VM. Zultys provides no end
user support except through dealers and the dealers I dealt with didn't
know much about the specifics of the Zultys firmware.

Also, I'm curious about the newest SNOM phones. Some time ago I used a
SNOM 200 and like the way the web based I/F was integrated into the use
of the phone beyond simply configuration. You could access the speed
dials and place a call from the web I/F. You could also dial the phone
from a link or shortcut to a url pointed at the phone. That's a fair
substitute for desktop TAPI. If they've taken this any further it could
be very good.

I've not tried any of the lesser phones like Grandstream or Linksys.
Life's too short to use a cheap phoneat least if your budget
permits better.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Is setting the variable _TRANSFER_CONTEXT required in features.conf?

2006-02-24 Thread Moises Silva
you need to set a TRANSFER_CONTEXT, either for the transferer or
transferee channel. I dont know why, but res_features give priority to
the transferee TRANSFER_CONTEXT, if not found, then use the transferer
TRANSFER_CONTEXT. That context is used to match the extension to dial.
So you can set this var to any context you want.

GSM networks have the Cell ID available to the phone, however that's not
much use without the location of the cellsite.

There are now location based services, whereby you can query the network
and they'll give out an approximate location (most cells are sectored
[6 sectors per cell) which gives a direction, the cell also knows what
power the phone is transmitting with, and the power it's received so can
make a good approximation of where the phone is (within 60 degrees
angle). However it's likely a phone will be picked up by several cells,
so the network can triangulate and make a better aproximation.

Making the information available to end-users is problematic due to
privacy issues, unless the user explicitly agrees to give the info away.

With GPS units, the info is stored in the phone and can send it out
using SMS or other means.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] mpg123 alternative?

2006-02-24 Thread Faris Raouf
Thank you Lee, Dave, Rich, Joel and of course also Kevin. Between your 
various messages I finally understand what's happening and how it works, 
and have actually converted everything to alaw, ulaw, slin and gsm and 
am not actually using the mp3 side of things at all anymore. The 
difference is very noticeable in terms of MOH quality except when using 
g729 on the link between Asterisk and the phone - the sound quality 
seems worse there.


I have two related questions though which I'm hoping someone can help with:

We use alaw, ulaw, gsm and g729 between phones and asterisk. Sox can 
convert files to ulaw, alaw and gsm (not to mention slin) but what about 
g729? Is there such a thing as a format that won't need transcoding when 
using g729 links, or is this not something that is possible?


And what is the signed linear (slin) format used for?

Thanks,

Faris.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Analyzer for Milliwatt

2006-02-24 Thread Matt Roth

Andrew Kohlsmith wrote:

What is being discussed here is basically what I was planning on doing for an 
automatic VOIP quality check.  Using miliwatt and analyzing it for 
pop/jitter/etc as well as sending other known waveforms and comparing what 
was received to what was expected and coming up with some quality number 
which would be fed back to the dialplan to adjust the least-cost routing 
paths.  Essentially come up with a least cost but still good quality 
routing.  :-)


I've done absolutely nothing other than a little research and a lot of 
thinking about how to do it though.  I did some research on digital click/pop 
removal for records as a way to detect poor quality, and then also some 
monkeying around with coppice's excellent DSP routines in spandsp.


-A.


Andrew,

This sounds like a programming project.  Something like a stripped down 
softphone (or possibly a plugin to an existing phone) with the ability 
to analyze the Milliwatt signal for variations/quality problems.  The 
ability to analyze other known waveforms would add a lot of value.


I suggest proposing your ideas to the -dev list or #asterisk-dev on 
FreeNode.  Someone else (I can't recall who) is working with SIPP in 
order to get it to pass the full RTP stream, instead of just the SIP 
signaling.  I believe that analyzing the quality of the RTP stream is 
still an open issue.  If it could be handled on a 1-to-1 basis by the 
call endpoints, it sounds like an elegant and scalable solution.


Currently, testing the scalability of an Asterisk system is a bit of a 
black art.  We did some work with an Abacus 5000 
http://www.spirentcom.com/analysis/product_set.cfm?PS=73PL=34wt=2, 
but they have a couple of significant drawbacks.  It was capable of 
originating and terminating hundreds of SIP calls, but it could only do 
audio quality analysis on up to 64 of them.  It is also a VERY expensive 
piece of equipment.


I'm very interested in your project, because our production system will 
push the vertical scalability of Asterisk.  So far we've handled 100 
concurrent calls with digital recording on a single server in a live 
environment with no quality issues, but the number of calls is going to 
increase to the 400-500 range as we add clients to the box.  The ability 
to test the results of the increased number of calls prior to going live 
could save me a LOT of headaches.  As such, your project is of 
significant value to myself as well as the community at large.  Please 
pursue it with the development community, and don't hesitate to contact 
me if needed.

There are now location based services, whereby you can query the network

[6 sectors per cell) which gives a direction, the cell also knows what
power the phone is transmitting with, and the power it's received so can
make a good approximation of where the phone is (within 60 degrees
angle). However it's likely a phone will be picked up by several cells,
so the network can triangulate and make a better aproximation.

Making the information available to end-users is problematic due to
privacy issues, unless the user explicitly agrees to give the info away.

With GPS units, the info is stored in the phone and can send it out
using SMS or other means.

It was my impression that only a handful of cellphones have full GPS
units in them. Benefon and some Motorola units made for the former
Nextel come to mind. The Benefon units do send SMS reports, and in
fact, I have written code to control and track these units via SMS
using a Nokia 31 GSM terminal. Unfortunately, aside from their unique
GPS/SMS capability, the Benefons are not very attractive products, in
my opinion. And they are expensive. The Motorola units contain Java
machines and a well defined API for accessing the location data. I
have not worked with them. There have undoubtedly been changes in the
marketplace since I did this work about 2 years ago.

As I understand it (but don't have thorough knowledge and could be
mistaken), other units generally only receive GPS satellite signals and
relay the data to cellular provider networks where the actual location
calculation is done. This can be done with assistance of data obtained
based on tower proximity, which jumpstarts the iterative process of
approximation. I think it is called assisted GPS or some such...

[Asterisk-Users] Trouble Chan Spy

2006-02-24 Thread David Guarnido








Hi list,



I got a question:



When I try to ChanSpy a SIP channel I only listen one
channel, for example,



I call from 302 extension and I have two active channels:



SIP/r1-voip-1b7b
(None)
Up Bridged Call(SIP/302-f1f1)

SIP/302-f1f1
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Up Dial(SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED]|4



When I try to spy this call from another extension:



1.SIP/301-fecc
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Up ChanSpy(SIP/302)

2.SIP/r1-voip-1b7b
(None)
Up Bridged Call(SIP/302-f1f1)

3.SIP/302-f1f1
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Up Dial(SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED]|4



I got 3 active channels, the one spying, the one that
places the call and the one that receives the call.

My problem is in the spying channel I can only hear
the one that receives the call (3) but I cannot hear the channel (2):



Thanks for your help,

RE: [Asterisk-Users] What business IP phone to use

2006-02-24 Thread mustardman29
Anything under 1ms is so far below the threshold of perceivable sound
quality, echo, delay etc. that it's a mute point to discuss IMHO.  Not even
in any cumulative effect it may have.

I can certainly see the advantages of SNMP for remote troubleshooting but
hard to justify for small offices with less than 10 extensions.  A good
quality unmanaged switch is all you need IMHO.  Not a cheap plastic Dlink or
Linksys you buy at your local wallmart mind you.

You can set up a db value for each extension as to what secretary group 
they belong to. When someone 0's out, have the secretary key looked up 
and then dialed, if no value is found have it dial a default secretary.

[Asterisk-Users] Call quality problems

2006-02-24 Thread Michael Welter
I'm having difficulty with an Asterisk system.  The external party has 
very good call quality, but the internal party hears clipping and drop outs.


The WAN comes in from the Cisco IAD and into a LAN switch (DLink 
DGS-1005D w/ 802.1p) where the two public IPs are switched to different 
devices.  One device is a FireBox device controlling a separate LAN with 
VPNs.  The other device is eth0 on the Asterisk system.


On the Asterisk eth1 is a 3Com 2226 LAN switch which connects Polycom 
IP501 phones.  There are no PCs on this voice LAN.  All ports on all LAN 
switches indicate full duplex.  The quality problem doesn't appear to be 
volume related (a single call still has problems).


The Polycom IP501s use SIP to the PBX, and the PBX uses SIP to the provider.

The normal WWV time signal consists of a constant tone that is 
interrupted every second by a click.  On the Polycom, each click can be 
heard, the tone starts, but the tone is clipped and there is silence 
until the next click.


I've verified that QoS is enabled in the IAD.

I would appreciate your thoughts.

Thanks,

Re: [Asterisk-Users] GPS-enabled cell phone/PDA

2006-02-24 Thread Juergen K. Zick
Some more recent phones have the possibility to be connected to seperate 
GSM-boxes. E.g. there is a plug-in for the (older) Nokia 9210(i)/9290(i) 
Communicators and most of the Symbian phones with Bluetooth support can be 
connected to any Bluetooth-enabled GPS-mouse ...


I think, getting the position data with a defined accuracy is not the 
problem. I'm quite satisfied with the location delivered by the CB channels 
of the base stations. Crucial is indeed, what kind of location based 
service you want to build and how the data gets to the server ... With 
flatrate contracts regarding SMS or GPRS-data it's not even a real question 
of costs anymore ...


But we slowly are getting completely OT for ASTERISK ;-) ...

For more info about context awareness and location based services 
probably take some time to read what some colleagues here are doing in 
research http://www.ist-mobilife.org/

RE: [Asterisk-Users] What business IP phone to use

2006-02-24 Thread Rich Adamson

 Aha, micro seconds in networking terms is normally written usecs or us
 (actually it's the greek letter mu as in ulaw) rather than ms which are
 milliseconds seconds - what had me puzzled was that it was stated that this
 could harm the voice path!
 
  The difference can also cause unnecessary delays and therefor echo in the
  path. For example, procurve switches typically have 13ms switching time,
  the high-end netgears about 21ms. As soon as you stack a couple of
  switches you are talking 26ms vs 42ms extra delay in the path!
 
 There is then only 8 usecs between the two switches, how on earth would this
 make any difference to the voice path at all? Let alone induce any echo... 
 
 Obviously the originally poster didn't understand the difference. And based
 on this, he's probably advising people not to use Netgear switches for
 voice, oh dear.  

I'll jump in here to make a couple of comments relative to ethernet switches.
Not all switches are created equal!!!

If you take the cover off a switch, write down the part numbers for the
chips used, and read the doc on those chips, you'll see major differences.
(We've actually tested several switches over the past several years in
real customer's networks as well.)

Many entry level switches on the market have only minimal buffering for
inbound and outbound packets. Its not uncommon for output buffers to be
limited to one or two packets, and as a user, you can't chnage it.

Port congestion frequently shows up when two (or more) devices connected
to a switch (assume 100 mbs for now) try to communicate via a single
upstream port (assume 100 mbs for now). The instantanous offered traffic
is essentially 200 mbs, and the switch is expected to send that traffic
out via a 100 mbs port. For those devices with minimal buffering, packets
will be dropped. For newer switches with deeper buffers, some packets
will be held up in the chip's internal queue waiting to get on the
outbound port's wire. The delay in the buffer will become jitter, and
depending upon exactly how many ports are contending for the outboud
port, the jitter _can_ become noticable. (That _is_ one of the reasons
why some switch vendors support QoS.)

One can talk about wire speed throughput, etc, and it doesn't mean
squat. Those are all marketing and sales words, not engineering specs.

There are plenty of very well known switch vendors that purchase switches
from other manufacturers and put their names on the front covers. Some
of those have characteristics as noted above, while others manage the
buffering and queuing much better then what their marketing/sales words
imply.

Its fairly common to see engineers in large corporate networks using
workgroup switches to consolidate traffic from multiple wiring closets,
and not pay any attention whatsoever to dropped packets in the switches.
That's about the time when senior mgmt intervens and asks an external
company to assess their network performance to resolve the internal 
fingerpointing. Our company has completed many of these.

The _only_ way to know for sure what a switch is doing (eg, dropping pkts)
is to ensure the switches have some form of network management. Even the
simple Dell 2708 (eight port gig switch for $100) has some level of
mgmt in it. Certainly not the best, but at least you can identify some 
issues.

With the pricing drops that we've all seen over the last couple of years,
its fairly easy to find managed switches at very reasonable cost. I'd
_never_ using unmanaged switches in any environment where critical
application data flows across the net, and I'd suggest voip traffic
represents critical traffic in all production networks.

[Asterisk-Users] Missing 31 DTMF tones over ZAP

2006-02-24 Thread Matt King

Hello,

   I'm posting this to the list in case others run into the same issue.
  
   I've recently been connecting * to a legacy Avaya InDEX switch over 
E1 ISDN PRI here in the UK.  Everything was working OK, except that DTMF 
digits were not being recognised by * when sent by the Avaya switch to 
the * system.  Instead, the background noise of the call centre would be 
silenced while users hit the keys on their phones - echo tests and 
RecordFile produced a flatline response.


   I had at first thought that the Avaya switch may not be sending 
them, however this was working when * was not in the call path.


   With further testing, I've found out that it is in fact only the 
first 31 DTMF tones that are missing - those following are picked up 
OK.  I've got no idea why this should happen, and have kludged a fix by 
having the Avaya switch send out 31 'fake' tones before the user starts 
entering data (using Translation inside Route List).   If anyone has 
come across this before and knows of a 'proper' fix, or even what might 
be causing the issue, I'd be very grateful for the information.


   Hope this helps,

[Asterisk-Users] problems with dialing

2006-02-24 Thread Will Glass-Husain



Hi,

We're having problems dialing out to Asterisk from 
our Grandstream GXP-200 phones. About 2 of 3 times, when we dial, nothing 
happens. Looking at the console in max debug mode, there are no messages 
except the following:

Feb 24 10:29:20 WARNING[2475]: chan_sip.c:1208 
retrans_pkt: Maximum retries exceeded on transmission 9913b47bcd7[EMAIL PROTECTED] for seqno 4524 
(Critical Response)

Note: Early dial is set to Yes. DTMF is via SIP 
info.

The phones are connected via a wireless bridge, 
range extender, and router to the asterisk box. Pinging the phone from the Asterisk box reveals a fairly long 
latency:

64 bytes from 192.168.10.100: icmp_seq=1 ttl=250 
time=1110 ms64 bytes from 192.168.10.100: icmp_seq=2 ttl=250 time=114 
ms64 bytes from 192.168.10.100: icmp_seq=3 ttl=250 time=21.8 ms64 bytes 
from 192.168.10.100: icmp_seq=4 ttl=250 time=33.4 ms64 bytes from

icmp_seq=6 ttl=250 time=57.4 ms

Could this be the source of the problem? If 
so, would appreciate tips on how to work around this.

Thanks in advance, WILL

[Asterisk-Users] disallow, allow codes

2006-02-24 Thread Dov Bigio



Hi,

On the general section of my sip.conf I had a 
disallow=all.

Then I put disallow=all, allow=g729, allow=ulaw on 
my users.

It didn't work until I removed the disallow=all 
from the header.

I know disallow=all in the header is totally 
useless in this case (since I have it for every user), but anyway, is this the 
correct behavior?

Thank you
Dov

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Is setting the variable _TRANSFER_CONTEXT required in features.conf?

2006-02-24 Thread Chuck Bunn

Hi,

I support multiple context on one asterisk server. I have a situation 
where there is a spa that has seperate voicemail and extensions and a 
resturant on the same campus that has different extensions and 
voicemail. They both use the same asterisk server but I do need the 
ability to transfer a caller from the spa to the resturant and vise 
versa. There are seperate phone lines comming in for the spa and 
resturant as well.


Thanks

[Asterisk-Users] ImportVar Syntax

2006-02-24 Thread Steven Ringwald
I am trying to use ImportVar to get some information out of a SIP/ZAP 
channel. I cannot seem to find an example of the syntax, or what 
variables I can access.


Basically, I would like to output which person is being called. i.e: 
SIP/25 calls SIP/21. 25 executes a macro, and the result is SIP/21.  The 
info that I want is stored in the channel's Direct Bridge variable.


I have tried: ImportVar(TEST=SIP/25-6d2a|name)

which doesn't seem to do anything. Looking through the code, the thing 
that I am looking for is:


c-_bridge-name (in function handle_showchan).

The voip-info page for ImportVar returns an error, and I couldn't find 
any occurance of ImportVar, except in pbx.c.


Thanks in advance!

Steve

[Asterisk-Users] RE: [Asterisk-Users ] RE: Monitor a call in progress. (Steve Totaro)

2006-02-24 Thread Max Glucksmann
Steve,

You wrote this referring to monitoring a call in Asterisk, how about from an
IP phones LCD display screen:

1.  go to www.google.com
2.  type asterisk monitor application
3.  click on the first result
4.  read and implement
5.  google is your friend 

I hope I made myself clear too ;-P

Moreover, which phone can we use? We have a call shop cashier attended
feature for call shops, but still need to display the call to the booth
user...
