Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk Hangups on PRI Interface
Hi Vicente, I do not know if Sahil has a legacy PBX but you havethis is really interesting because I do have an old legacy PBX connected to Asterisk (via PRI trunk) which is connected to PRI telco. The problem arises when I call from an analog phone connected to the legacy PBX passing thru Asterisk to the telco. In other words if I call number 12345 from legacy PBX I receive the Channel 0/5, span 1 got hangup request but it works if I use a SIP phone connected to Asterisk PBX. I think the secret is in zapata.conf configuration..infact I changed some values and magically I could make outbound calls!!! The only drawback was I couldnt' receive any inbound call!!

[asterisk-users] How does SIP work?
(I'm sorry to ask this question here, but I didn't get a reply in VoIP-related forums and I figured there's a lot of people here who are knowledgeable about VoIP and SIP, and could help me see the light. Please replace Axon PBX server with Asterisk in SIP mode if you will :-) ) I finally got to have a working set up using an Axon Windows PBX software, Linksys 3102 gateway, a GrandStream IP phone and an X-Ten softphone over the Net... but I don't know _why_ it works :-) Here's how I think the whole thing works: 1. I set up the router to map UDP 5060 to the host where the PBX is installed, and I launch the Axon server 2. Remote phones connect through the Net into the Axon server to register their IP address and extension 3. When a call comes in from the PSTN network into the Linksys, the 3102 sends an SIP notification to the PBX. The PBX checks what extensions it must ring, and sends out SIP notifactions to all extensions involved. For this to work, all remote routers must also forward SIP messages to the IP phones that registered (UDP 5060 by defaullt, but each phone needs its own port to be reachable, eg. UDP 5060 for the first phone in the LAN, UDP 5061 for the second phone, etc.) 4. Once a phone goes off-hook, a connection is set up between the phone and the Linksys gateway. During the connection, each device tells the other what UDP ports it will use for RTP, ie. data packets. Provided this is correct so far, here's where things begin to blur: - If I don't set up remote phones to use STUN, connections are made, but I don't get sound in one direction: Is it because without STUN, the misconfigured phone sends its private IP in the data part of an SIP message, eg. 192.168.0.1, and since this is an unroutable address the other device won't be able to route data packets? - I didn't forward any ports for RTP, but calls still work: Is it because I happen to have UPnP-capable routers, hence RTP ports are automagically opened to make things happen?

There are better conference phone options available, and development on chan_sccp is basically dead at this point anyway, so I dont see this one ever being fixed. I would recommend a Polycom IP4000, its the exact same phone body but is much cheaper MSRP, and its SIP. Mine works fine with chan_sccp, and there's now SIP firmware out for it (which I haven't tried) I'm also considering taking back chan_sccp to get it working with 1.4, but can't do that until some of my contract work clears up. signature.asc Description: Digital signature ___ --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

Afer running ./configure with whatever options you need, you should run make menuselect That will give you a menu to select the required modules.

[asterisk-users] X100M location in circuit requirement?
I have just added a A1200P+FXO port to my home line for testing. In the interest of saving time, I wired it to the Phone port of my Fujitsu Speed Port DSL Modem. So in total, I have the line from the telco going to my Fujitsu, which goes to the FXO port. In parallel at the POP I have a DSL line filter in series with the rest of my house phones (2 phones, one modem, and the ADT alarm system). So I look at my console this morning as see all these events. Judging by the period, I am going to guess that my ADT alarm panel is calling home to check in on the parallel existsing phone system and Asterisk is seing that. Would that be correct? And.. When it comes to Asterisk, does it function fine as a second system to the same line as the house phones? (Also, can anyone point me to the list of configuration options for an X100M FXO module for the asterisk conf files?)

[asterisk-users] asterisk on 2.4 kernel ... scheduler problem?
Hello people! I have an inquiry (not a doubt ;D ). Actually, two. I am trying to run asterisk on an embedded Power PC platform on which we have a linux with a 2.4.2x kernel. In there, the linux scheduler runs at 100Hz. On a 2.6 kernel, the scheduler is at 1KHz. I just take this from a colleague ... hope it is true :) I only need to run the VOIP part, thus no POTS or external hardware. Actually, I just need SIP and H323 (channels/h323). Is there any problem to be expected from the scheduler difference? Or any other from running on a 2.4 kernel? Some colleague said that asterisk needs the 1KHz scheduler, but i cannot believe that it won't run on a 2.4 kernel ... Anyway, that is why i am asking. The other inquiry ... as the system is embedded we have not so much disk space available. So, i need a minimal asterisk installation. When compiled and stripped, the biggest amount of space is taken by the modules. My question is, can asterisk work with just the chan_sip.so, chan_h323.so and the codec_*.so? is there any other module needed? I need only be able to bridge sip to h323, no extra fancy stuff needed (parking, echo, blah, blah, ... ) Tks a lot!

Re: [asterisk-users] asterisk on 2.4 kernel ... scheduler problem?

I am trying to run asterisk on an embedded Power PC platform on which we have a linux with a 2.4.2x kernel. Still uses 2.4 today? Not a very good sign. In there, the linux scheduler runs at 100Hz. On a 2.6 kernel, the scheduler is at 1KHz. I just take this from a colleague ... hope it is true :) I only need to run the VOIP part, thus no POTS or external hardware. Actually, I just need SIP and H323 (channels/h323). Is there any problem to be expected from the scheduler difference? Or any other from running on a 2.4 kernel? Some colleague said that asterisk needs the 1KHz scheduler, but i cannot believe that it won't run on a 2.4 kernel ... Anyway, that is why i am asking. If you really want a 1kHz timing source for 2.4, build zaptel. But you'll need a USB UHCI chip. The other inquiry ... as the system is embedded we have not so much disk space available. So, i need a minimal asterisk installation. When compiled and stripped, the biggest amount of space is taken by the modules. My question is, can asterisk work with just the chan_sip.so, chan_h323.so and the codec_*.so? is there any other module needed? I need only be able to bridge sip to h323, no extra fancy stuff needed (parking, echo, blah, blah, ... ) Don't autoload modules in modules.conf . Load only the modules you need. Use 'load' from the CLI to manually load modules to see if you need them. One shortcut you may take is to use DeStar.

[asterisk-users] Polycom 501 One-way Audio
I have a site running an up-to-date version of Asterisk from the 1.2 trunk. We have a dozen Polycom 501 units and one of them (none of the others) is having recurring one-way-audio problems. As Murphy's Law dictates, it's the bosses phone! The user gets a few calls a day where the caller can hear her fine but she hears dead silence. It happens when she calls out sometimes too. Even internal voicemail and extension-to-extension calls are affected. I just called her three times from another extension; the first two were affected, the third got through. None of the other units seem to have the problem. They're all running the same firmware and are loading central configs that are identical except for line-button text and registration info. I've been running * with lots of debug/verbose logging enabled and have yet to see it complain about anything when she reports the problem. I'm about to replace her phone with a spare to see if that fixes it. Wondering if anyone has seen something like this and might be able to tell me what to look for as a potential cause.

RE: [asterisk-users] WAS: 64 analog phones NOW: Selection criteri a and recipie for a good Asterisk install [long]
I concur with your approach, but Tier 1 means as little here as it does when evaluating Internet backbone carriers. could you expand on what evaluation criteria you use? I'm going to be pre-speccing some stuff myself this month... Sorry I should have been more clear. A good Asterisk install needs a holistic approach to use a hippy dippy phrase. A Tier 1 server, which is a midrange to high end name brand server from the Big 3 (Dell, HP/Compaq, IBM, am I missing someone?) is usually highly optimized for bus bandwidth although that design was intended for a different use - usually massive disk I/O. As well, a Tier 1 server will have two seperate, independent PCI buses and this to me is a critical feature - it allows you to completely separate your TDM traffic from network, disk I/O etc. On my big production Netfinity, I took great care to ensure the Digium cards were all on their lonesome on a single bus, and everything else on the other bus. This is how I can run two TE110's in a single box with no problems. zttest does not give me 100% all the time, but on the other hand it *never* drops below 99.9987%, even under load. I selected this Netfinity because of the obvious care put into it's design, but the specs are unimpressive: quad Xeon 700's. CPU is over rated for Asterisk, IMO unless you are doing tons of transcoding and if you are doing that, then your design is flawed. Anyway, the holistic approach (to go on a small rant for the newbie lurkers) be summed up as follows: 1. Good box, see above 2. Good LAN - this is so critical and so often overlooked in the day and age of guys crimping their own cables and running $150 switches. You can't do that, and if you do, you do so at your own peril. Managed swiches, professional cable installation. This is not a problem for me since I *am* a professional cable installer but I have actually witnessed people making patch cables with a flat blade screwdriver and a hammer! 3. Tuning of the LAN - VLAN's are good. QoS packets are good. Switches that honor the QoS packets are good. 4. Handset selection - this is another biggie. I've selected Snom 360's, and yes they have warts, but they are feature rich for the price and Snom is really good about revising firmware. When you select handsets, GET YOUR USERS INVOLVED. 5. Tuning of Asterisk box itself - this cannot be under emphasized. This is a very important step and tuning methodologies vary according to distro, skill of the admin, and particular circumstances. I've learned *way* more than I ever wanted to about processor affinity sinc I started using Asterisk. 6. Termination of PSTN. Basically I would never do an Asterisk install where I was forced to do something stupid like aggregate a dozen Centrex lines or some mickey mouse deal with FXO ATA's or whatever except for a hobby or prototype install. PRI, BRI, IAX or SIP, don't mess around with anything else. 7. Relationship with provider. What is their SLA? Is it the incumbent or the clec? An incumbent will be more expensive and more difficult to deal with but they will tend to be more reliable. A clec will be cheaper and they will be way more accomodating but you will most likely not get five 9's from them. A VoIP provider should never be trusted, period. You will not get five nines from them, ever. Plan failover situations accordingly. 8. Plan plan plan plan. A good install of ANYTHING is 80% planning 20% doing it. What is your plan when your primary PSTN provider fails? What is your plan if your Asterisk box goes pear shaped? My dialplan can survive either PSTN, WAN or LAN failure (albeit with reduced functionality). I also keep a cold spare, an identically configured box that I can literally throw into the rack, turn it on, plug in the PRI's and no problem. 9. Internet bandwidth and latency. I am fortunate enough to have a great IP provider. Ask for demos - most guys will install a 90 day trial or something like that. Do not believe the brochure, get the product installed and put it under load. 10. Traffic prioritization at the IP demarc - total no brainer. 11. Constant, constant user feedback and remediation. If you are not talking to your users, your install will ultimately fail even if you have the best of everything. Underpromise and overdeliver. Never loose sight of the basics - they have to pick up the phone, and it has to work.

[asterisk-users] T1 incoming connects, but no sound
Hi everybody, When I call my asterisk box, connected via a T1 line, it connects, logs various things, supposedly plays back the message defined in extensions.conf, and then disconnects. Seems all fine and dandy other than the fact that no sound is being heard on the phone placing the call. I'm upgrading my PBX from an intertel-axxess to asterisk. In zaptel.conf and zapata.conf I set the incoming T1 line exactly the same as the intertel box has it set: zaptel.conf: span=1,1,0,esf,b8zs em=1-8 fxsls=9-16 em=17-24 loadzone = us defaultzone=us zapata.conf: [channels] usecallerid=yes hidecallerid=no transfer=yes echocancel=yes echotraining=yes immediate=no ; span 1 group=1 context=from-ptsn signalling=em channel = 1-8,17-24 signalling=fxs_ls channel = 9-16 Ztcfg, zttool, and asterisk all give the green light on this configuration, but when an incoming call is received (haven't tested outgoing yet, one piece at time), the following is logged: Sep 27 17:39:30 VERBOSE[31181] logger.c: Asterisk Ready. -- Starting simple switch on 'Zap/1-1' Sep 27 17:39:35 DEBUG[31181] chan_zap.c: Exception on 17, channel 1 Sep 27 17:39:35 DEBUG[31181] chan_zap.c: Got event On hook(1) on channel 1 (index 0) Sep 27 17:39:35 DEBUG[31181] chan_zap.c: disabled echo cancellation on channel 1 Sep 27 17:39:35 WARNING[31181] chan_zap.c: getdtmf on channel 1: Success Sep 27 17:39:35 DEBUG[31181] chan_zap.c: Hangup: channel: 1 index = 0, normal = 17, callwait = -1, thirdcall = -1 Sep 27 17:39:35 DEBUG[31181] chan_zap.c: disabled echo cancellation on channel 1 Sep 27 17:39:35 DEBUG[31181] chan_zap.c: Set option TDD MODE, value: OFF(0) on Zap/1-1 Sep 27 17:39:35 DEBUG[31181] chan_zap.c: Updated conferencing on 1, with 0 conference users Sep 27 17:39:35 VERBOSE[31181] logger.c: -- Hungup 'Zap/1-1' No sound is ever heard on the calling phone, and the call is quickly terminated from the asterisk end.

RE: [asterisk-users] WAS: 64 analog phones NOW: Selection criteri a and recipie for a good Asterisk install [long]
OK, pardon my ignorance -- but what can you tune on such a system? How does Linux handle separate buses? Thanks. on Thursday 09/28/2006 Colin Anderson([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote I concur with your approach, but Tier 1 means as little here as it does when evaluating Internet backbone carriers. could you expand on what evaluation criteria you use? I'm going to be pre-speccing some stuff myself this month... Sorry I should have been more clear. A good Asterisk install needs a holistic approach to use a hippy dippy phrase. A Tier 1 server, which is a midrange to high end name brand server from the Big 3 (Dell, HP/Compaq, IBM, am I missing someone?) is usually highly optimized for bus bandwidth although that design was intended for a different use - usually massive disk I/O. As well, a Tier 1 server will have two seperate, independent PCI buses and this to me is a critical feature - it allows you to completely separate your TDM traffic from network, disk I/O etc. On my big production Netfinity, I took great care to ensure the Digium cards were all on their lonesome on a single bus, and everything else on the other bus. This is how I can run two TE110's in a single box with no problems. zttest does not give me 100% all the time, but on the other hand it *never* drops below 99.9987%, even under load. I selected this Netfinity because of the obvious care put into it's design, but the specs are unimpressive: quad Xeon 700's. CPU is over rated for Asterisk, IMO unless you are doing tons of transcoding and if you are doing that, then your design is flawed. Anyway, the holistic approach (to go on a small rant for the newbie lurkers) be summed up as follows: 1. Good box, see above 2. Good LAN - this is so critical and so often overlooked in the day and age of guys crimping their own cables and running $150 switches. You can't do that, and if you do, you do so at your own peril. Managed swiches, professional cable installation. This is not a problem for me since I *am* a professional cable installer but I have actually witnessed people making patch cables with a flat blade screwdriver and a hammer! 3. Tuning of the LAN - VLAN's are good. QoS packets are good. Switches that honor the QoS packets are good. 4. Handset selection - this is another biggie. I've selected Snom 360's, and yes they have warts, but they are feature rich for the price and Snom is really good about revising firmware. When you select handsets, GET YOUR USERS INVOLVED. 5. Tuning of Asterisk box itself - this cannot be under emphasized. This is a very important step and tuning methodologies vary according to distro, skill of the admin, and particular circumstances. I've learned *way* more than I ever wanted to about processor affinity sinc I started using Asterisk. 6. Termination of PSTN. Basically I would never do an Asterisk install where I was forced to do something stupid like aggregate a dozen Centrex lines or some mickey mouse deal with FXO ATA's or whatever except for a hobby or prototype install. PRI, BRI, IAX or SIP, don't mess around with anything else. 7. Relationship with provider. What is their SLA? Is it the incumbent or the clec? An incumbent will be more expensive and more difficult to deal with but they will tend to be more reliable. A clec will be cheaper and they will be way more accomodating but you will most likely not get five 9's from them. A VoIP provider should never be trusted, period. You will not get five nines from them, ever. Plan failover situations accordingly. 8. Plan plan plan plan. A good install of ANYTHING is 80% planning 20% doing it. What is your plan when your primary PSTN provider fails? What is your plan if your Asterisk box goes pear shaped? My dialplan can survive either PSTN, WAN or LAN failure (albeit with reduced functionality). I also keep a cold spare, an identically configured box that I can literally throw into the rack, turn it on, plug in the PRI's and no problem. 9. Internet bandwidth and latency. I am fortunate enough to have a great IP provider. Ask for demos - most guys will install a 90 day trial or something like that. Do not believe the brochure, get the product installed and put it under load. 10. Traffic prioritization at the IP demarc - total no brainer. 11. Constant, constant user feedback and remediation. If you are not talking to your users, your install will ultimately fail even if you have the best of everything. Underpromise and overdeliver. Never loose sight of the basics - they have to pick up the phone, and it has to work.

The t6000 requires RFC1833 and I have that in the sip.conf but it still doesn't seem to work. I get my incoming calls from a Tekelec. The SIP User-Agent says Tekelec-7000/r4.0. I don't know how different a 6000 configuration is compared to a 7000 configuration.

[asterisk-users] Yet another processor question
Here's my setup, I'd like to hear what everyone suggests is the best route: I have three sites, a main and two outlying buildign, each has a Mitel SX200 system with a PRI interface. The outlying sites currently each have a PTP T1 line back to the main site. Right now I have a P2 700mhz Asterisk server at each site with a Digium 4 port T1 card. Each Asterisk server sites between its site's external T1 line and Mitel switch. Each Asterisk box is also connected to the PtP T1 line. I am using ZaptelPPP to send data on 12 channels, and the rest are left free for voice calls. The Asterisk boxes do some limited LCR, and route outbound calls over the PtP T1 to whichever site has the most affordable outbound calling plan for the call in question, as well as sending site to site calls over the PtP. It works, but using ZaptelPPP is a bit of a pain, and it makes upgrading a hassle, since I haven't found ppp packages for a recent OS so now I have to have the compiler on each box, etc. Making changes to the asterisk servers means taking down the data connections as well, which is unpopular with the users. One site has never worked, despite having identical configuration to the other site. The data bandwidth is always limited to 12 channels, even when the voice channels are idle. So what route would everyone recommend? I can move the PtP connections to independent WAN routers with QOS, then the Asterisk boxes will need to do TDM to SIP and back. Right now everything is TDM switching. Will the slow P2s have the horsepower to handle 12 or 13 TDM to SIP calls? Or should I stick to my current system and just deal with the upgrade hassle? (I wouldn't even upgrade, except that Caller ID Name information doesn't work on my current 1.0 version) Mark ___ --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

RE: [asterisk-users] RPID
Hi, Here is how I have it working: If Alice calls Bob and Bob's phone diverts the call to Carol. You want Bob to pay for the call and the callerid shown to Carol to be 'Alice' On Bob's server exten _X.,1,sipaddheader(Divertion:[EMAIL PROTECTED];user=phone The proxy that routes bob's call to Carol will then charge Bob for the call and the From: field will be Alice If you are an ITSP using Asterisk then you must look for the 'Divertion' header in incoming SIP invite's yourselves with a sipheader(Divertion) command I have this working in a few different scenarios I think that the right thing todo would be setting the RDNIS if the 'Divertion' is present on inbound side but I am not sure about this so I am using a private variable and doing this outside the SIP channel b.r. Freddi Thanks... I did some research and found that it's actually not what I was wanting (unless I missed something lol). I'm actually looking for a way to forward caller id information to the called party on a forwarded call. I may just need to dig deeper. On another note, I did find a patch in mantis that is considered experimental that does get it to where you can see the caller id of who you're calling based in the dialplan.

Try adding the following to sip.conf: sendrpid=yes trustrpid=yes If it is going to work with your phones, it will just work. If not, chances are your phone does not support RPID.

[asterisk-users] You are not the next caller
Ok... I have heard this on Digium's PBX in the past, but can't seem to find it anymore. There was an IVR that you could dial into and Allison had recorded one of the funniest messages I have ever heard... you are not the next caller, hang up not, spend time with your children... it was hilareous... Does anyone have that recording? or know where I can find it?
