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

Re: [Asterisk-Users] UK X100P installation help
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!

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

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

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

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 in 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?

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

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. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users The contents of this email message and any attachments are confidential and are intended solely for addressee.

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.

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

Re: [Asterisk-Users] mpg123 alternative?
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.

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

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...

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

(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!

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. 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. I guess the best information would be obtained by recording in the codec format. That means being sure to prevent transcoding. I'm not sure if that can be done with simple dialplan programming. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

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.

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.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] GPS-enabled cell phone/PDA
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. -Rusty On 2/23/06, Michael Welter [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I would like to capture the lat/lon coordinates from a GPS-enabled cell phone or PDA.

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. Michael Graves -- Michael Graves

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
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.

[Asterisk-Users] Call quality problems
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, -- Michael Welter Telecom Matters Corp.

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.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] What business IP phone to use
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. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

[Asterisk-Users] Missing 31 DTMF tones over ZAP
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, Matt King, M.A. Oxon.

[Asterisk-Users] problems with dialing
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 192.168.10.100: icmp_seq=5 ttl=250 time=4.46 ms64 bytes from 192.168.10.100: icmp_seq=6 ttl=250 time=57.4 ms Could this be the source of the problem?

[Asterisk-Users] disallow, allow codes
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?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Is setting the variable _TRANSFER_CONTEXT required in features.conf?
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 Moises Silva wrote: it seems im not undestanding your question then. Could you provide a practical example?

[Asterisk-Users] ImportVar Syntax
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!
