I'm not doubting that patents exist, I'm just betting that you'd have
to have some seriously drunken vision to interpret them as the exact
business processes Vonage uses. I think if Verizon thought for a
second they had solid ground to stand on, they would disclose which
patents they're referencing so the public could decide.

 Any clues on why the host-id changes?
 IDEA: I also notice that sometimes eth0,eth1 and eth2 (Yes: i have
 three network interfaces) interchange on reboot. Are they related?

Quite possibly, the registration program for that codec will bind to
eth0 and use it as the host ID, if you change ethernetcards or re-number
interfaces you will need to re-register the codec.

As for the re-ordering of your network cards I would suggest you look
into running udev with some rules to keep the order of the cards
consistent over reboots.

[asterisk-users] QSIG configuration

2007-04-10 Thread George C. Attopany


Hello,

Anyone to help with information on configuring  Q.SIG in Asterisk ?

I run  ASTERISK  1.4 with a Wildcard TE410P-Xilinx on Fedora Core 6
and Zaptel 1.4

I need to tie this ASTERISK system to a Panasonic TDA200 PABX which
has  ISDN PRI Card which requires QSIG signalling for seamless integration
with the ASTERISK system.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards.

is registered as a peer to my asterisk then it rings the phone. Plz help

[asterisk-users] Re: Zaptel 1.4.1 Install Modules CentOS

2007-04-10 Thread Chris Blunt


Hello again 

I tried the yum install kernel-smp-devel this seemed to download an
updated version that was not the same as the version running, so I backed it
out using rpm -e kernel-smp-devel

I then proceeded to do uname -r to verify the kernel version (output:
2.6.9-42.0.3.ELsmp) and did yum install
kernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-42.0.3.EL.i686

If I now do ls -l /lib/modules/`uname -r` I do get  build -
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.9-42.0.3.EL-smp-i686

I have then tried recompiling zaptel.  

But same trouble I'm afraid!

I can't thank you enough for your continued help.

Chris

  yum install kernel-smp-devel

 
 I did check the /lib/modules/2.6.9-42.0.3.ELsmp directory but there is
no
 build link, could this be the problem?

Yes. No suggested location for the kerenl source. This should be fixed
by installing the relevant kernel-devel package (which has a partial
copy of the kernel build tree, configured for the specific kernel)

[asterisk-users] Dialplan help - MeetMe and call monitoring

2007-04-10 Thread Edoardo Serra

Hi guys,
I need to realize a sort of automatic call monitoring dialplan.

This is exactly what I need:
- A user originate a call
- When the call is bridged (or just before) I need to invite 
automatically a third party to the conversation that should hear the 
audio channel but not speak (it's a monitoring application for a callcenter)


The person in charge of monitoring cannot use ChanSpy or whatever
because calls are placed at random hours during the day and its 
telephone should ring when he needs to listen to a call.


I was thining at using a MeetMe in which i'd put both legs of the 
monitored call and the person who should hear the conversation.

Do you have other tips about that ??

Here was my first idea of dialplan to get to it.

[outgoing]
exten = _X.,1,Noop(Call monitored in MeetMe ${CALLERID(num)})
exten = _X.,n,Answer()
exten = _X.,n,Set(_MEETMEROOM=${CALLERID(num)})
exten = _X.,n,Wait(1)
exten = _X.,n,Dial(SIP/trunk/${EXTEN}|G(call-third-party^s^1))

[invite-third-party]
exten = s,1,MeetMe(${MEETMEROOM},dAxqa)
exten = s,2,Dial(SIP/extensionformonitoring|G(bridge-all^s^1))

[bridge-all]
exten = s,1,MeetMe(${MEETMEROOM},qdx)
exten = s,2,MeetMe(${MEETMEROOM},mqdx)

This setup is not working because I cannot call a Dial again on a 
bridged channel


Here is what I get on Asterisk CLI

  == Starting SIP/180-108c94b0 at call-third-party,s,2 failed so 
falling back to exten 's'
  == Starting SIP/180-108c94b0 at call-third-party,s,2 still failed so 
falling back to context 'default'


Do you have some idea to achieve this kind of result ?

Tnx in advance

You could use a Local Channel, one leg recording to a soundfile, the 
other for the conference room.

Re: [asterisk-users] sip_header=value?

2007-04-10 Thread Rizwan Hisham

I have discovered another thing,

exten= 123,1,Dial(SIP/abc/${EXTEN},,Tt)
exten= 123,2,hangup

If the user is using xlite to register with my asterisk server, then we are
able to call him using the above axtension, and if the user is using sipura
the the above extension does not dial the user instead it displays a
congestion message as before, maybe there is a problem in sipura firmware. I
am using Linksys/SPA2100-3.3.6. any ideas why is sipra behaving like this.

for sipura to ring we have to use the following extension, without ${EXTEN}
variable

Dial(SIP/abc,,Tt)

I was thinking everyone from the list should send him a welcome back email in

Or and I have no idea where this started but I got it from another list I

Nothing interesting just endless photos of Snow.

Any other suggestions?

Re: [asterisk-users] sip_header=value?

2007-04-10 Thread Karl J. Vesterling
There is a difference bwtween the SPA-941 which is a standalone desktop
phone w/ Speakerphone, and your SPA2100

What header value are you trying to set, and why?

Because the example I gave is for making the SPA-941 an intercom, and
also requires some changes in it's settings within the phones web
interface.  So of course my example isn't going to anything for your
SPA-2100 except give you an example of how to set a SIP header.

So now my question becomes, What is it that you are attempting to do by
setting the SIP Header?

Best Regards,
Karl J. Vesterling

 If the user is using xlite to register with my asterisk server, then
 we are able to call him using the above axtension, and if the user is
 using sipura the the above extension does not dial the user instead it
 displays a congestion message as before, maybe there is a problem in
 sipura firmware. I am using Linksys/SPA2100- 3.3.6. any ideas why is
 sipra behaving like this.

 for sipura to ring we have to use the following extension, without

 Dial(SIP/abc,,Tt)

[asterisk-users] help with Sipura SPA 3000

2007-04-10 Thread Francis Augusto Medeiros

Hi there everyone!

I've bought a Sipura SPA 3000, and succesfully connected it to my Mac, where
I installed Asterisk 1.4.0. Both ports (FXO and FXS) are well configured).

However, living in Brazil, I'd like to know if there are optimal settings to
my PSTN that I should enter into the config of the device. I experience a
little bit of echo on the FXO probably because I raised the gain of that
port because I wasn't sounding loud enough.

But there are two things I would like to do with the device, and I'd
appreciate if anyone could help me out:

1 - Is there a way to stop cutting other people when I speak through the
PSTN? What I mean is that, when sound is captured by my telephone, it
dimishes the other peer's voice, and sometimes it makes communication
harder, as if the line weren't full duplex.

2 - How can I gain full control to the FXS? I mean, a simple * dialed is not
sent for asterisk (the server) interpretation, probably because it's used by
Sipura's suplementary services, I don't know. Also, is it possible to get a
dial tone from ASterisk, instead of Sipura's? My goal with this is to
provide users with direct access to the PSTN line pressing 0, instead of
collecting calls and making the call themselves, or at least making
ignorepat to work!

Cheers,

Francis

[asterisk-users] Reverse-ATA : Using PSTN lines to connect to Asterisk

2007-04-10 Thread Mike
Hi,
 
I'm looking for a few pointers on using ATA to connect Asterisk to the PSTN.
Basically, I'm running a Hosted PBX service, and in urban centers I can
usually get SIP or PRIs.  Since I sell my customers SIP hardphones, the data
flow is like this:
 
Customer's SIP Hardphone  My own Asterisk - Outside lines
 
But when it comes to smaller villages (I deal with people in tiny places),
I'd like to reuse their own PSTN line this way:
 
Customer's SIP hardphone  My own Asterisk -- Some device on the
customer's premise  customer's PSTN lines
 
 
I know ATAs are mostly used in a scenario where you reuse traditional phones
to connect to SIP servers, but can they accomodate my scenario? And if so,
what line of ATA should I be looking at?

[asterisk-users] Asterisk without PSTN interface cards

2007-04-10 Thread Alejandro Cabrera Obed
People, I will install asterisk on my Debian Etch box without a PSTN
interface card. I want to use only softphones for the moment.
My question are:

1) Is it enough to install with apt-get the asterisk 1.2 or do I have
to get asterisk 1.4 manually ???

2) Do I have to configure a dummy PSTN interface in my case ??

And if you have a debian-asterisk howto, I really thank you.

Hello Mike,

Wouldn't a Sipura SPA 3000, with an FXS and an FXO, handle what you want?

Hi,

what could be the maximum simultaneous calls can asterisk do? i read
about
the asterisk business edition review[1] and it can only handle 120
simultaneous calls? i'm using 1.2.x branch of asterisk and i use more or
less 90 simultaneous calls.

[1] http://www.voiptalk.org/products/Asterisk+Business+Edition

What about
http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk+dimensioning
?  People
reports all kinds of numbers above 120.  The answer partially depends on
your hardware.

Simultaneous calls can also mean very different things under different
circumstances, as the page will tell you.  If there is no
transcoding/NAT'ing/in-band signaling, simultaneous calls can mean SIP
set-ups only.  You can see extremely high numbers even on ancient
equipment.
  If everything is in-band and you are using CPU-intensive CODECs, the
number will drop sharply.  It also varies with types of channels, i.e.,
whether you use PSTN, IAX, SIP, H.323.  But still, I don't think 120 is
any
limit.

Yuan Liu




Hi thanks for the reply.  im just doing sip to sip all g729a codecs, my
hardware is a dual xeon 3.0GHZ with 2gb mem. how many simultaneous calls can
you estimate with this setup?

Alejandro,

On Tue, 10 Apr 2007, Alejandro Cabrera Obed said something to this effect:


1) Is it enough to install with apt-get the asterisk 1.2 or do I have
to get asterisk 1.4 manually ???


  I am not sure if the debian release yet contains 1.4.x.  It may be safer 
to compile from source if you want the bleeding-edge version.  But 1.2.x

works quite well, too, so it's really up to you.  I prefer 1.4.x personally
at this point, now that it's been hanging out there for a while.


2) Do I have to configure a dummy PSTN interface in my case ??


  I am not sure exactly what you mean by dummy PSTN interface, but in 
principle, the answer is no.  However, there are situations in which it

may benefit you to have a Digium-derived card in the machine so that the
RTC (real-time clock) on it can be used for driving the intervals of
hold music, conference calling (MeetMe), etc.  But there is also a 
ztdummy module that can be loaded into the kernel which emulates such

an RTC.

  So, if your intent is purely to use SIP internally, no need for any PSTN.

Re: [asterisk-users] Reverse-ATA : Using PSTN lines to connect to Asterisk

2007-04-10 Thread Alex Balashov


Hi Mike,

  You should be looking at ATAs that have FXO, rather than FXS interfaces. 
Most ATAs come with FXS ports so that you can connect analogue phones to

them, but in this case you're wanting to take PSTN lines from the outside,
so FXO is desirable.

  Second, you'd have to make sure that the ATA supports the sort of 
application you're using it for;  most are manufactured on the opposite 
premise.  I am actually not sure offhand of any ATA firmware that I know 
that I imagine would work this way, although I'm confident it exists

as consecutive back-to-back analogue-VoIP adaptations in many scenarios
can get quite complex and requires that flexibility.

  Basically, you're looking for a small IP PBX that uses SIP internally
among its private nodes and takes PSTN trunks from the outside.  That's 
what PBXs typically do.  :-)


  If all else fails, you can always roll your own functionality of this 
nature by using FXO cards in Asterisk.  There are various distributions

that package it in a very lightweight and reusable manner specifically
for this type of purpose, or you can roll your own if it's scalable
enough.

I run Debian servers. I also run Asterisk on them.

In my case, I do not use the supplied Debian packags, but prefer to 
compile my own. That way I get the version of asterisk that I want with 
the config files where I want them (which oddly enough are as per the 
asterisk documentation)


You only need a timing interface for some operations - MeetMe and possibly 
Music On Hold springs to mind, in which case, the ztdummy module will 
probably be sufficient for your needs.

[asterisk-users] Voicemail: How to send a notification if Caller hags up during announcement

2007-04-10 Thread Jean-Marc Salsa

Hi,

I was wondering if there was a way in Asterisk (agi script, asterisk-itself,
whatever ... ) to send a notification to the user (Mail, SMS like voicemail
application is doing) if the user has called, but did not leave any messages?

I tried to use the minmessage, but, couldn't. Is that the way ?
I was thinking of using the h Dialplan, and launch some script, but then,
how to know if caller has left a message or not ?
I wouldn't like to send 2 messages to the user.

Thanks for your help !

Jean-Marc

We are regularly running 250-300 simultaneous calls in an inbound call

weights on the queues was the needle in the haystack that was causing

has been a single segmentation fault.




Were your problems limited to queue weights, or are agent penalties likely
to cause this as well?  I'm about to embark down the ACD path, and still
unsure as to whether AgentCallbackLogin (on 1.2) or AddQueueMember (on 1.4)
is the better solution to go with.

 I'm not doubting that patents exist, I'm just betting that you'd have
 to have some seriously drunken vision to interpret them as the exact
 business processes Vonage uses. I think if Verizon thought for a
 second they had solid ground to stand on, they would disclose which
 patents they're referencing so the public could decide.


 I bet you can access court records under some public information

Thanks for the answer.  I've never heard that one before.

I remember once I used a 3rd party component set (Indy 9) to do some 
smtp alert emails from a Windows application.  Couldn't get the mails to 
go through for a few particular customers and after some research and 
talking to ISP's, we found out that the component set that I used was 
used to write spamming software and the headers produced by the 
component set were flagged by spamm assasin and others.  Arg.

RE: [asterisk-users] Reverse-ATA : Using PSTN lines to connect toAsterisk

2007-04-10 Thread Mike
Thanks Alex,

That was my original thought, to just buy a TDM400 from Digium and put in as
many FXO as I wanted, but I liked having the ease of just buying something
off the shelf, even if it meant paying a little more.

But it looks like I won't have much of a choice.

Hi Mike,

   You should be looking at ATAs that have FXO, rather than FXS interfaces. 
Most ATAs come with FXS ports so that you can connect analogue phones to
them, but in this case you're wanting to take PSTN lines from the outside,
so FXO is desirable.

   Second, you'd have to make sure that the ATA supports the sort of
application you're using it for;  most are manufactured on the opposite
premise.  I am actually not sure offhand of any ATA firmware that I know
that I imagine would work this way, although I'm confident it exists as
consecutive back-to-back analogue-VoIP adaptations in many scenarios can
get quite complex and requires that flexibility.

   Basically, you're looking for a small IP PBX that uses SIP internally
among its private nodes and takes PSTN trunks from the outside.  That's what
PBXs typically do.  :-)

   If all else fails, you can always roll your own functionality of this
nature by using FXO cards in Asterisk.  There are various distributions that
package it in a very lightweight and reusable manner specifically for this
type of purpose, or you can roll your own if it's scalable enough.

Unfortunately, the developers have decided that since you can get 
something similar using lots of dialplan logic, they have decided that 
it's easier to deprecate the function than to fix it.


Psst -- don't tell the developers, but we could probably get something 
similar to Asterisk with a box of tin cans, a spool of string and a couple

You cannot use the MixMonitor app on its own in a callback scenario
because, as you've already discovered, MixMonitor senses the call
transition between the time the agent answers and the calls is then
bridged with the waiting caller and still stop recording.

To fix this, in the 1.4 version of app_queue, there's a
monitor-type=MixMonitor parameter which will use the MixMonitor
appropriately natively in app_queue instead of Monitor.

RE: [asterisk-users] Reverse-ATA : Using PSTN lines to connect toAsterisk

2007-04-10 Thread Alex Balashov


Mike,

No, not necessarily.  There are plenty of off-the-shelf IP PBX units, and 
some of them are not expensive at all.  I heard somewhere Linksys makes one 
for about $500 and it can amply serve a small office.  Should be enough for 
your purposes.  Either way, it'd be immensely cheaper than buying a PC, 
installing Linux, throwing Asterisk on it, setting it up manually, even if 
you manage to find a way to replicate and scale some of those processes.


Unfortunately, I'm not a very good market researcher.  :(

You can use a quad FXO gateway. Ask on the -biz list if you are looking
for suppliers.

Thanks Alex,

That was my original thought, to just buy a TDM400 from Digium and put in as
many FXO as I wanted, but I liked having the ease of just buying something
off the shelf, even if it meant paying a little more.

But it looks like I won't have much of a choice.

Hi Mike,

   You should be looking at ATAs that have FXO, rather than FXS interfaces. 
Most ATAs come with FXS ports so that you can connect analogue phones to
them, but in this case you're wanting to take PSTN lines from the outside,
so FXO is desirable.

   Second, you'd have to make sure that the ATA supports the sort of
application you're using it for;  most are manufactured on the opposite
premise.  I am actually not sure offhand of any ATA firmware that I know
that I imagine would work this way, although I'm confident it exists as
consecutive back-to-back analogue-VoIP adaptations in many scenarios can
get quite complex and requires that flexibility.

   Basically, you're looking for a small IP PBX that uses SIP internally
among its private nodes and takes PSTN trunks from the outside.  That's what
PBXs typically do.  :-)

   If all else fails, you can always roll your own functionality of this
nature by using FXO cards in Asterisk.  There are various distributions that
package it in a very lightweight and reusable manner specifically for this
type of purpose, or you can roll your own if it's scalable enough.

Re: [asterisk-users] sip_header=value?

2007-04-10 Thread Rizwan Hisham

Well here is my scenario,
Our users have option to register with one Primary did and 5 secondary dids
for the purpose of distinctive-ring/did-based-routing. If a user is
registered with us and he is using sipura, then we have to send 6 different
bellcores in alert into sip header for his different dids like this
Caller called user1 did1(123)-send bellcore1
Caller called user1 did2(456)-send bellcore2
and so on
If the user is using asterisk to register with us, then we also have to send
the dnid so that when the user receives the dialed num, he has to decide to
route that call to which extension based on dnid.

So the first problem:
For sending the dnid i used the dial application like this:
(1)--Dial(SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED]) incase when the user is using asterisk as a
peer
(2)--Dial(SIP.user1) incase when the user is using sipura as a peer
i wanted to use (1) for dialing sipura also but it doesnt work, so i dial
like (1) if user is using asterisk and (2) for every other device. I am
still finding a way to solve this problem so that i dont have to check the
called user's useragent for every call. I was trying to find a way to send
the dnid in some header field. thats why i started this thread.

The second Problem:
Asterisk doesn't set the ${DNID} variable to the dialed extension extension
num. all of my system for setting the bellcore and sending the dnid is based
on ${DNID} variable, and i just came to know this problem. I dont know why
this i happening. if you know plz help.

So.any ideas

What header value are you trying to set, and why?

Because the example I gave is for making the SPA-941 an intercom, and also
requires some changes in it's settings within the phones web interface.  So
of course my example isn't going to anything for your SPA-2100 except give

So now my question becomes, What is it that you are attempting to do by
setting the SIP Header?

I have discovered another thing,

If the user is using xlite to register with my asterisk server, then we
are able to call him using the above axtension, and if the user is using
sipura the the above extension does not dial the user instead it displays a
congestion message as before, maybe there is a problem in sipura firmware. I
am using Linksys/SPA2100- 3.3.6. any ideas why is sipra behaving like
this.

for sipura to ring we have to use the following extension, without
${EXTEN} variable

Dial(SIP/abc,,Tt)

 Were your problems limited to queue weights, or are agent penalties
 likely to cause this as well?  I'm about to embark down the ACD path,

Queue member penalties (there are no 'agent' penalties as agents are
concept provided by chan_agent and it does not handle penalties) are not
known to cause any problems.

Weights (between queues) are definitely problematic, primarily because
they cause a great deal of extra locking/unlocking operations as all the
queues and their callers are traversed trying to make a decision which
member should get which call. The 'autofill' behavior that has been
recently added only makes this worse.

We plan on rebuilding the queuing system from scratch, using a
state-driven rather than polling model, which will pretty much eliminate
this issue as there will be a lot less 'work' involved in delivering
calls to queue members. Most of the design work for that will happen at
next month's DevCon, and then you will see the code begin to appear in
the following weeks. It is possible that the code will be backportable
to Asterisk 1.4, although obviously we won't be doing that as part of
any official releases.

 People, I will install asterisk on my Debian Etch box without a PSTN

 to get asterisk 1.4 manually ???

http://packages.debian.org/asterisk

(Hey, Etch is out! oldstable no longer has Asterisk 0.1 ;-)

As you can see, there is 1.2.16 (and soon 1.2.17, I've already asked to
upload it) in Sid, and 1.4.2 in Experimental . Etch has 1.2.13 .

Alternatively, try:

  deb http://updates.xorcom.com/rapid etch main

which has some backports of Sid packages.

 
 2) Do I have to configure a dummy PSTN interface in my case ??

You need the zaptel module ztdummy. As you just need ztdummy and not a
real zaptel, there's really no reason to use latestgreatest
bleeding-edge zaptel. 

If you added my packages source from above:

  apt-get install zaptel zaptel-modules-`uname -r`
  /etc/init.d/zaptel start

If you have just the standard Etch sources, the procedure is a bit more
complicated, because you have to generate the package zaptel-modules for
your kernel:

  apt-get install zaptel zaptel-source build-essential
  # maybe you need to also explicitly install linux-headers-`uname -r`
  # to build and install the zaptel-modules package for your kernel:
  # (Will probably fetch the proper linux-headers package as well)
  m-a a-i zaptel 
  /etc/init.d/zaptel start

In both cases 
You should get an error from ztcfg because there's no zaptel.conf, but
just ignore it, as you don't need ztcfg for ztdummy. To make that error
disappear you can run:

  touch /etc/zaptel.conf




 
 And if you have a debian-asterisk howto, I really thank you.

As usual with Debian, start from /usr/share/doc/PACKAGE/README.Debian .

Two other potentially-useuful packages in our repository:

  freepbx  # though still a bit broken. maybe try 
   # 'freepbx-common freepbx-modules'
  asterisk-config-simple

Maybe they'll also help you getting started.

I was unaware of that build, thanks Tzafrir!

But it seems old...

You can download the current complete sources with:

svn checkout http://www.celliax.org:8081/svn/celliax/branches/test1 test1

or you can download a livecd from www.celliax.org and test it without
install anything.

For compiling yourself you actually just need the files that build
chan_celliax, that you find in test1/celliax_stuff/ (chan_celliax.c
chan_celliax_spandsp.c chan_celliax_spandsp.h) and to modify the
channels/Makefile

And, of course, the configuration files (particularly celliax.conf)
that you find in celliax_stuff/newconfigs/*.

So, if you would better like to compile with the asterisk-dev
packages, just download the svn sources as told, put those three files
in the asterisk/channels directory and modify the
asterisk/channels/Makefile.

Anyway, if you download and build directly from the svn sources (just
make install from the test1/asterisk-1.2.17 directory), it will put
all the stuff in /usr/local/asterisk,
/usr/local/asterisk/etc/asterisk/*.conf,
/usr/local/asterisk/usr/sbin/*, etc, so it will not clutter your
computer and other existing asterisk installations (you will have to
remove just the /usr/local/asterisk directory).

The test1 branch of the svn is the latest and greatest, but do not yet
support skype and alsavoicemodems.
The trunk of the svn supports skype and alsavoicemodems, but... ;-)

Hi, thanks a lot for your directions, I've downloaded the svn from 
celliax, but i wasn't aware than these sources are the full asterisk 
sources including asterisk and chan_celliax. So, i thinks than it's a 
good idea to compile the sources, build a deb and forget about the 
debian official deb. Is that right or there is a more debian way to add 
this channel to the debian release.


thanks a lot

[asterisk-users] XO Flex T-1 Asterisk

2007-04-10 Thread mypaisa

I have an XO t-1 line which includes VOIP on 5 lines.  When a call

bandwidth is restored.  The provided a channel bank which does this. 



My question is, if I use asterisk, then am I losing double bandwidth

for each call?  For example the only way I guess I can connect to the

lines is from the 66block they provided which would serve as POTS

lines.  So, I guess I need to connect them to asterisk using FXO

cards?  My extension would take bandwidth from the t1 and the actual

call running over XO would also take bandwidth, right?



If someone could explain the best way for me to set this up, I would

really appreciate it.

Re: [asterisk-users] Maximum retries exceeded on transmission

2007-04-10 Thread Edoardo Serra

Same to me !!

Calls from OpenSER to Asterisk

It happens only with Asterisk versions = 1.2.14

I'm going to capture some traffic

Tnx for help

Regards

Joao,

  It sounds like the proxy is not acknowledging the Asterisk's 
processing of the INVITE, but I could be wrong.  It would be helpful 
to supply a packet capture between OpenSER and Asterisk so we could 
see the setup flow.


Thanks,

Hello
My asterisk is receiving calls from OpenSER but all calls hangup in 
20 seconds.
This only happens because Im using Asterisk2Billing's AGI (without 
A2Billing it doesnt hang up).

does someone knows whats the problem??

 People, I will install asterisk on my Debian Etch box without a PSTN
 interface card. I want to use only softphones for the moment.
 My question are:

 1) Is it enough to install with apt-get the asterisk 1.2 or do I have
 to get asterisk 1.4 manually ???
 

 http://packages.debian.org/asterisk

 (Hey, Etch is out! oldstable no longer has Asterisk 0.1 ;-)

 As you can see, there is 1.2.16 (and soon 1.2.17, I've already asked to
 upload it) in Sid, and 1.4.2 in Experimental . Etch has 1.2.13 .

 Alternatively, try:

   deb http://updates.xorcom.com/rapid etch main

 which has some backports of Sid packages.

   
 2) Do I have to configure a dummy PSTN interface in my case ??
 

 You need the zaptel module ztdummy. As you just need ztdummy and not a
 real zaptel, there's really no reason to use latestgreatest
 bleeding-edge zaptel. 

 If you added my packages source from above:

   apt-get install zaptel zaptel-modules-`uname -r`
   /etc/init.d/zaptel start

 If you have just the standard Etch sources, the procedure is a bit more
 complicated, because you have to generate the package zaptel-modules for
 your kernel:

   apt-get install zaptel zaptel-source build-essential
   # maybe you need to also explicitly install linux-headers-`uname -r`
   # to build and install the zaptel-modules package for your kernel:
   # (Will probably fetch the proper linux-headers package as well)
   m-a a-i zaptel 
   /etc/init.d/zaptel start

 In both cases 
 You should get an error from ztcfg because there's no zaptel.conf, but
 just ignore it, as you don't need ztcfg for ztdummy. To make that error
 disappear you can run:

   touch /etc/zaptel.conf




   
 And if you have a debian-asterisk howto, I really thank you.
 

 As usual with Debian, start from /usr/share/doc/PACKAGE/README.Debian .

 Two other potentially-useuful packages in our repository:

   freepbx  # though still a bit broken. maybe try 
# 'freepbx-common freepbx-modules'
   asterisk-config-simple

 Maybe they'll also help you getting started.

   
Dear people, thanks for your help...I appreciatte it a lot. But one more
question please:
I have a Debian host base with vserver support (virtual machines, I use
them for running squid, postfix and a lot of services without problems)
I?ve just installed Asterisk in a new vserver from Debian Etch
repositories and I get this error:

Setting up zaptel (1.2.11.dfsg-1) ...
mknod: `/dev/zap/ctl': Operation not permitted
dpkg: error processing zaptel (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

After that I see the content of /dev/zap and there is nothing at all.

Any idea ??? Can I continue without this device if I use only softphones ???

Thanks again

Alejandro

RE: [asterisk-users] XO Flex T-1 Asterisk

2007-04-10 Thread Alexander Lopez
'Your extension' would only use the bandwidth if it is off-site. If your
phone ('extension') is on the LAN then it 'should' not touch the T1.

Furthermore, the XO product is not compatible with Asterisk unless you
do as you say and connect the FXO or T1 port to your asterisk server.
You will still need to use XO's IAD. (Integrated Access Device)

 I have an XO t-1 line which includes VOIP on 5 lines.
When a
 call
 
 comes in, it drops the bandwidth on the t1 and when the call is over
 
 bandwidth is restored.  The provided a channel bank which does this.
 
 
 
 My question is, if I use asterisk, then am I losing double bandwidth
 
 for each call?  For example the only way I guess I can connect to the
 
 lines is from the 66block they provided which would serve as POTS
 
 lines.  So, I guess I need to connect them to asterisk using FXO
 
 cards?  My extension would take bandwidth from the t1 and the actual
 
 call running over XO would also take bandwidth, right?
 
 
 
 If someone could explain the best way for me to set this up, I would
 
 really appreciate it.

[asterisk-users] ISDN BRITE support?

2007-04-10 Thread Jeff Gustafson
Hi all,
I found some message in the Digium list archives that discussed ISDN
BRITE support.  There was also some discussion on 4:1 bitrate
conversion.  I did some searching on the source code and didn't see any
reference to BRITE or bitrate conversion.  
Does the current code properly pass a D-channel from a BRI port to a
DS0 channel on a channelized T1?  BRITE seems pretty straight forward,
but I didn't see any examples on how to do this.  Are there any plans
for supporting the more complicated bitrate conversion that muxes the
D-channels from BRI ports to a single DS0 channel?
The context for these questions is the same as what was previously
discussed.  I would like to use Asterisk to route H.320 video
conferencing equipment into a T1 and provide a platform for eventually
moving off our old PBX.

...Jeff

 Have you tried tinkering with the gain settings? Adjusting the gain can
 impact sidetone, which might improve the call experience.
 
 No, not yet.  Any suggestions as to direction and magnitude?
 
 After confirming that they're experiencing what they say they've been
 experiencing, I would start with the rxgain and increment it by 2 or 3,
 then test.
 

Applying rxgain of 2 seems to have satisfied the user who was complaining.

My own perception of delay finds it acceptable.   Could be intermittent, tho, I

[asterisk-users] Help w/ Asterisk Cisco IP phone and SCCP

2007-04-10 Thread shawnl
I have a new asterisk installation (1.4.2) that is working fine with
SIP.  Now I'm trying to add 2 cisco ip phones (7960) running SCCP
(latest chan_sccp).


I have the phones booted, and the tftp directory all setup, etc. But
the phones do not quite work right.  When I lift the handset I only get
a dial-tone 1 out of 5 or so times I try, though hitting the speaker
button works.  I can dial from SCCP - SIP phone with no problems, but
not SIP - SCCP or SCCP - SCCP.

I have a feeling I'm forgetting something fairly easy and stupid, but I 
can't seem to see what it is.  Anyone have any suggestions?

There are different types of delay.  There is audio delay and there is

Re: [asterisk-users] Help w/ Asterisk Cisco IP phone and SCCP

2007-04-10 Thread end1r

Do you have any console messages?

SCCP uses a station start tone message with a value of Inside Dial Tone and 
a direction of  Tone Output User. and the line instance and  Station Tone 
Output Direction should be set to something other than 0.

SCCP runs over TCP so you should get this message, but it would  be interesting 
to see if you get this message the phone still doesnt play dial tone.

My experiences with chan_sccp have been disappointing at best.

If you can get a trace of both SCCP legs send it to me and i can take a look at 
it.

Actually, if this is a cut and paste, you are missing the 1.  It should be:

exten = 104,1,Dial...

you have

exten = 104,Dial...

Also, jumping to n+101 is not the default in Asterisk 1.2+, you might
want to search the wiki (www.voip-info.org) for priority jumping and
it can explain much better than I can.

A better question, I guess, is this chan_sccp or chan_skinny?  If
chan_sccp did you successfully compile it with the patches for 1.4?

Re: [asterisk-users] remote SIP, no audio, or one way audio.

2007-04-10 Thread Joe Acquisto
So, a packet trace, at router-internet, was done.  Not much to speak of, 
filtering for phone/* server traffic.

While I can see what appears to be a session initiation and they make nice, 
there appears to be no traffic for audio, at all.   Anyone have an  example 
they could share?   Or is someone quite well versed in SIP traffic who can read 
the trace?

Debian already has several packages of out-of-tree asterik modules, that

This is how I built my deb.

 Dear people, thanks for your help...I appreciatte it a lot. But one more

 I?ve just installed Asterisk in a new vserver from Debian Etch

Right. http://bugs.debian.org/411850

Workaround: edit /var/lib/dpkg/info/zaptel.postinst to remove the mknod
calls and run 'apt-get install -f'

You'll have to find a way to generate the zaptel device files. Maybe ask
the vserver host maintainer. The device files you need:

/dev/zap/ctl
/dev/zap/pseudo

Is /dev/zap/channel also needed?

 
 After that I see the content of /dev/zap and there is nothing at all.
 
 Any idea ??? Can I continue without this device if I use only softphones ???

Yes, but you won't have zaptel timing (e.g: no meetme)

When you plug the phone into the port on the Vonage ATA that you're

Here's my next question: What does cat /proc/interrupts show on the
Asterisk server? Run that and post the output.

2007-04-10 Thread dave cantera

joe,
look for the codec negociation... I have a similar problem where the 
endpoints could not agree on the codec and thus no audio went through.


in 1.4.X
CLI sip set debug peer extension

yields,

Audio is at 10.10.15.15 port 15342
Adding codec 0x4 (ulaw) to SDP
Adding codec 0x8 (alaw) to SDP

Reliably Transmitting (no NAT) to 10.10.15.219:5060:
INVITE sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:5060;user=phone SIP/2.0

make sure both endpoints have at least one codec that is the same...
if not, adjust your sip.conf for both endpoints.

Re: [asterisk-users] intermittent choppy sound over wifi link

2007-04-10 Thread Gordon Henderson

On Sun, 8 Apr 2007, Curt Shaffer wrote:


I am experiencing a situation where I am getting intermittent choppy audio.
Here is the network layout:

Termination provider - IAX2 over the Internet - 20Mb fiber connection -
router - Asterisk

My ATA connection goes into the router between the fiber and the Asterisk
server on another interface here is the layout from me to Asterisk:

Sipura ATA (SPA1001 running 3.1.19(SE) firmware), also tested with X-lite
softest - PIX 506 (although I have tried multiple routers and direct
connection to the radio try to fix the problem) - 1 mile 802.11b link to AP
- 15 mile 802.11b link Backhaul - router - Asterisk


I'm, er, impressed.

Some years ago I was involved with community broadband networks delivered 
via Wi-Fi, and the results were dissapointing to say the least. I was 
using smartbridges kit - good kit at the time and designed for the great 
outdoors. Relatively expensive though.


One thing I found was putting 2 Wi-Fi links back to back - ie. with just a 
switch in-between, would seriously degrade bandwidth through the link. And 
15 miles! That's really stretching it, but I guess you have the kit - big 
parabolics or dishes, line of sight, no fresnel zone intrusions, etc. We 
tried daisy-chaining 4 links together and struggled to get 1Mb/sec through 
it.


What kills Wi-Fi is full duplex. It's only half-duplex kit, so there is 
a turn-around on the link to simulate full duplex. When your packets are 
short and coming in both directions, the radio turn-around time can exceed 
the packet time. Put 2 links back to back through a switch or hub and it's 
worse. Put short packets through it at regular intervals and it's worse 
yet. Try to run short packets both ways at the same time (which you have 
to for VoIP) and it's even worser.


But you'll get good ping times and downloading data will appear just 
fine which is what'll make it all the more frustrating!


So make sure there is nothing else on the Wi-Fi links, especially no 
uploads.




My Asterisk version is Asterisk 1.2.12.1, Zaptel 1.2.9.1. Ping times are
~10ms, jitter is under 10 with an average of 5. QoS is enabled in the router
for SIP, RTP and IAX2 traffic going to and from the Asterisk box.


QoS won't help you at the end of 2 radio hops, because by the time the 
packet gets to the router, it's gone over 2 Wi-Fi hops and it's too late 
for the router to do anything with it, so uploads are to be avoided. 
That's what used to kill my networks (I had 3 community networks with a 
few 100 people in total, connected togther with a fibre backhaul) One 
kiddie using p2p software would kill his entire segment of the network as 
the uploads would cripple any other downloads, and because I only had one 
router per community, he'd effectively cripple everyone in that community 
until I cut him off and/or employed some really harsh traffic shaping 
which wan't that effective anyway, but helped. I lusted after a router at 
each AP, but that was never going to happen as we never had the money...



When I experience the choppiness the ATA reports packet loss on the web
interface (Call 1 Packets Lost: ). I can run something such as ping plotter
from the same leg of the network that the Asterisk box is on while this is
happening and there is not even a small glitch of lost packets on the
network but the ATA displays otherwise. The only thing I have come up with
thus far is possible retransmissions on the wireless connection (and due to
the type of gear, I'm not able to see this data). We are way out in the
country with no other real providers even close so I'm doubting interference
although I suppose it is a possibility keeping an open mind. My question is
can anyone point me to any possible reasons this would be happening? Also
can anyone tell me other reasons other than real lost packets that the ATA
would show this? My only guess on that was packets that never got an ACK due
to server congestion or some other reason other than actual loss.


As far as I'm aware, there's no ACK in the RTP stream - it's just a UDP 
stream with the bare minimal of overhead to help sequence and time 
packets.


You may find that the Wi-Fi gear is dropping UDP packets if it gets 
overloaded. Can you increase the sample time - from (eg) 20ms to 40ms? So 
the packets are bigger and the radio turn-arounds are less frequent? Have 
you tried a lighter codec? (eg GSM - smaller packets, but less often?)


Other than that, all I can suggest is Good Luck ...

 you have

Sorry, it was a typo

 
 Also, jumping to n+101 is not the default in Asterisk 1.2+, you might

 it can explain much better than I can.
 
 A better question, I guess, is this chan_sccp or chan_skinny?  If

RE: [asterisk-users] Verizon-Vonage Lawsuit

2007-04-10 Thread Salvatore Giudice
I co-invented that one. It's a good one. A lot of my input went into it, but
the final product was much more general than I was originally led to
believe.

Somehow this patent was slowly changed from disclosing sip contact center
technologies to a patent on using SIP.

The original intention was to do this for disclosure purposes in order
defend against clowns like Katz. However, the company that owns this patent
has since transferred rights to one of their subsidiary IP PBX firms and
eventually they may decide to use this patent for other purposes besides
defensive disclosure.

I imagine that they could always whip this patent out on competing SIP PBX
companies... It certainly would be annoying to deal with.

RE: [asterisk-users] Verizon-Vonage Lawsuit

2007-04-10 Thread Salvatore Giudice
BTW, the main problem with these patents is that they tend to lower the rate
of adoption for new standards. Nothing kills a standard quicker than when
someone patents it.

For example, someone out there even has a patent on ENUM:
http://www.freepatentsonline.com/20060020713.html?highlight=enumstemming=on

It made me mad that he beat me to it. Roflol... Regardless, this won't help
with ENUM adoption.

Any joker with about $6k per patent and some time on his hands to monitor
emerging standards can easily generate some patent entertainment for
themselves at the expense of others...

So, the question of the day is: Have you thought about patenting something
today?

It's easy. I just got a new idea while writing this for an ENUM related
patent that I may pursue at some point... =)

RE: [asterisk-users] help with Sipura SPA 3000

2007-04-10 Thread James Harper
 I've bought a Sipura SPA 3000, and succesfully connected it to my Mac,
 where I installed Asterisk 1.4.0. Both ports (FXO and FXS) are well
 configured).
 
 However, living in Brazil, I'd like to know if there are optimal
settings
 to my PSTN that I should enter into the config of the device. I
experience
 a little bit of echo on the FXO probably because I raised the gain of
that
 port because I wasn't sounding loud enough.

Get the impedance settings right. An impedance mismatch will cause echo
(but may not be the only cause)

 But there are two things I would like to do with the device, and I'd
 appreciate if anyone could help me out:
 
 1 - Is there a way to stop cutting other people when I speak through
the
 PSTN? What I mean is that, when sound is captured by my telephone, it
 dimishes the other peer's voice, and sometimes it makes communication
 harder, as if the line weren't full duplex.

I think the 'echo suppression' setting causes this. It is meant to
reduce the incoming audio (and hence the echo) while you are talking,
which can be annoying but is supposed to be less annoying than the echo
itself.

 2 - How can I gain full control to the FXS? I mean, a simple * dialed
is
 not sent for asterisk (the server) interpretation, probably because
it's
 used by Sipura's suplementary services, I don't know. Also, is it
possible
 to get a dial tone from ASterisk, instead of Sipura's? My goal with
this
 is to provide users with direct access to the PSTN line pressing 0,
 instead of collecting calls and making the call themselves, or at
least
 making ignorepat to work!

A dialplan of '(S0:s)' will get your phone to jump straight into the
's' extension in asterisk as soon as someone picks it up. From there you
can do something like:

[sip_ata_incoming]
exten = s,1,Answer
exten = s,n,DISA(no-password|sip_extension_in)

so Asterisk will give you dialtone and do the dialplan stuff for you.
From the 'sip_extension_in' context you can make a single '0' or '*'
call the PSTN line.

Good luck with the echo situation. I have an spa3000 and no matter what
I do I get echo coming back to me with almost no reduction in volume!!!

[asterisk-users] Learn some terminalogy before mounting this task.

2007-04-10 Thread James R. Stevens
All,

I have done research on VoIP for some time now. I'm a Cisco certified
Network Engineer however Telecom is not my strongest suit. I've been a
part of this mailing list for sometime but my delusions of grandeur in
migrating our 25 year old phone system to a new platform have been on
the back burner, until now. I have found my company is moving to a new
location(building) and this provides perfect opportunity.

 

Long story short, I'm very Linux savvy having no problems compiling,
building, making etc.. However getting connected to the PSTN is puzzling
me. My vocabulary is lacking and I need to call our provider this week
and get some circuits moved. So, my confusion

 

(Current Setup)

We have a T1 coming into the building(FYI-Our Voice and Data are on
separate T's) terminating at the Smart Jack. Then a cable from the T
card(SmartCard) to the channel bank. From the Channel bank lines are
punched down to the block. Then those ANALOG lines are fed into our Big
hunking PBX mounted on the wall and two (Looks to be Rj11) lines come
from it into our VM server.

 

QA..

 

We are going to leave the telecom hardware behind.. I want to replace it
all with an Asterisk or Tribox solution.

 

I can tell you our current phone system can handle 7 phone calls at a
time:

   Does this mean the T only has 7 channels provisioned out of the 24
possible?

 

  Does a channel (In terms of the T1) = a port?

 

  How many phone calls can one TDM400 support concurrently? (four ??)

 

  Would I be better off getting a Zapata T1 card and forgetting the
Channel bank all together(Use the digital signal)?

 

  Or Have a channel bank installed and use an OpenSwitch12 solution
working with the analog signal?

 

 If we go with a Zapata T1 card for the Asterisk server would we be able
to provision an analog phone line, for say a FAX machine from it?

 

(Further information)

Ultimately this is the FIRST of 3 offices that will be migrated. This
first office has 30 physical phones and currently no DID (Hoping to
change that as well) Once the second and third offices migrate(about the
same number of stations) we would connect the 3 Asterisk systems over
the WAN giving us free long distance between offices.  The toughest
challenge I foresee is getting overhead intercom/paging to work(We must
be able to hail our warehouse staff over head), also Music on Hold... If
I use Cisco 7940's (SIP) (Or the like) I'd like to integrate our phone
extensions for a 3 offices into the directory

Does this sound do-able?

Hi James,

  Admittedly, the terminological and conceptual barrier may present some 
impediments to the completeness and specificity of answers, so we might 
have to work at this a bit, but let's see how we can help:


On Tue, 10 Apr 2007, James R. Stevens said something to this effect:


We have a T1 coming into the building(FYI-Our Voice and Data are on
separate T's) terminating at the Smart Jack.


  Are you implying that there are two T1 circuits -- one voice, and one 
data?  Or do you mean that the T1 is channelised and some of the channels 
are used for voice and some for data?  That's kind of what it sounds like. 
Sounds like you can do 7 calls on voice channels and the rest are 
provisioned as a clear-channel data pipe.


  That would mean that you have some equipment for breaking them out on 
your premises.  The channel bank would break out the voice lines as FXO 
analogue lines (if you set it to) and those probably feed into your PBX. 
The rest of the channels used for data would probably be signaled out on
another T1 interface, but with some subrate DS0 channels missing.  That's 
ust a guess.


  But what you say below suggests that my theory is wrong, so perhaps it is 
the case that you have separate voice and data T1s after all, even though 
you refer to it in the singular.


  Do be aware that under no circumstances does anyone generally refer to a 
T1 as a T.  :)



I can tell you our current phone system can handle 7 phone calls at a
time:

  Does this mean the T only has 7 channels provisioned out of the 24
possible?


  This is possible.  Do you happen to know what kind of signaling is used 
on it?  Is it an ISDN PRI, or an EM trunk?



 Does a channel (In terms of the T1) = a port?


  A port on what?  The channel bank?

  Channel banks generally do break the DS0s (subrate 64 kbps channels, of 
which there are 24 on a T1) out, but some more sophisticated ones have the 
capability to do other things as well.


  If so, the answer is yes.


 How many phone calls can one TDM400 support concurrently? (four ??)


  If it has four FXO ports and four FXO modules, yes.  They come in 
different combinations.  Some come with 2 FXO (outside POTS lines to CO) 
and 2 FXS (plain analogue POTS handsets) ports, etc.



 Would I be better off getting a Zapata T1 card and forgetting the
Channel bank all together(Use the digital signal)?


  You could do that.  Personally, the easiest approach I would say would be 
to order a PRI.  They've probably considerably gone down in prices, too, 
especially if you go shopping with some friendly CLECs.  The rule of thumb 
in the industry is that generally, once you pass the threshold of six or 
seven POTS lines, it becomes economical to just order an entire PRI, and 
once you do that, there usually aren't *very* considerable savings to be 
gained from turning down all but a few channels.  A PRI has 23 channels 
(bearer channels (B channels)) and one signaling channel (D channel); 
it's a type of T1-based ISDN interface.


  So, you might potentially be able to get 23 in/outbound phone lines for 
roughly the same cost or a modest increase, which would increase your 
organisation's capacity to do things like conference calling and other 
things which tie up large amounts of outside lines.


  Do beware that if you go this route, PRIs can be ordered as inward-only 
(typically used for modem and termination-only telephony applications like

voicemail, IVR, conferencing, etc.) or bidirectionally.


If we go with a Zapata T1 card for the Asterisk server would we be able
to provision an analog phone line, for say a FAX machine from it?


  No, not if the card doesn't have FXS ports on it.  But you could get 
another Digium or Digiumlike card that does, even if it's just a 
single-port (like the hugely popular X100P, which is very inexpensive)

and pull that off.

  Let me know what else we can answer, or if I substantially misunderstood 
your question.


Good luck,

On Tue, 10 Apr 2007, Alex Balashov said something to this effect:

  The reason I say that, by the way, is because most T1-based digital voice 
trunking is done using PRIs these days.  That doesn't mean you couldn't get a 
good old-fashioned EM trunk -- which is what would typically be used on a 
classic channelised T1 (which uses channel-associated signaling (CAS) 
rather than out-of-band PRI signaling on the non-bearing D channel), 
sometimes at a considerable discount from the telco.


  The Zaptel-compatible T1 cards support that as well.  But PRI is a lot easier 
to manage for a variety of reasons IMHO, and is generally preferred.

Re: [asterisk-users] Verizon-Vonage Lawsuit

2007-04-10 Thread Christopher Chan



Thanks for the answer.  I've never heard that one before.

I remember once I used a 3rd party component set (Indy 9) to do some 
smtp alert emails from a Windows application.  Couldn't get the mails to 
go through for a few particular customers and after some research and 
talking to ISP's, we found out that the component set that I used was 
used to write spamming software and the headers produced by the 
component set were flagged by spamm assasin and others.  Arg.





Mail admins usually treat non-MTA software that send email as highly 
potential sources of spam. In your case, a whitelisting arrangement 
would take care of the problem or whatever arrangement they may have.


Properly managed ISP's/domains will have a reachable contact at 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]/domain.


The third party component set you mentioned...is it the original of 
indyproject.org too?


The Indy 9 component most probably got itself into blacklists because of 
the IntraWeb framework, which most probably uses Indy 9 for smtp, has 
inadequate measures against abuse and the Indy 9 component creates an 
easily identifiable header.


Whole server farms running proper MTA software will get blacklisted if 
they have abusable scripts or other stuff using them.

RE: [asterisk-users] Learn some terminalogy before mounting this task.

2007-04-10 Thread James R. Stevens

Alex,
First may I offer thanks for your comment and reply. Most I understood and all 
I appreciate.
To clarify the existence of the Channel bank at our current premise:
In past years the Data and Voice WAS on the same T1. The 24 channels were 
used(The T1 was full) and the channel bank separated (At that time marketed 
as-) DPL (Digital Private Line) circuits to our two branch offices.
That has long been changed. We now have a separate/new T1 for data and the 
original T1/channel bank which is in fact only for voice. When I talk with our 
CLEC (USLEC) I should now expect them to tell me there are only 7 channels 
provisioned on the Voice T1. (If I understand your comments)



Also,
Sounds as though I should compare pricing to a PRI ISDN circuit and inquire 
about our current Voice T1's signaling (I wonder if this is in reference to 
CLOCKING of a TDM circuit?)
We will need a few Analog lines for various IT Dpt. issues therefore a Zapata 
T1 card for the Asterisk server is out. Also, an earlier reference to 'A port' 
comes for my reading about the TDM400 cards. That material states the card has 
4 'ports' configurable to FXO or FXS type 'ports'. If I understand your 
comments, 1 Channel of a T1 OR PRI equals 1 port on an TDM400 card or 
OpenSwitch12 for that matter.

Lastly, I have seen recommendations to only install ONE card within an Asterisk 
server for stability and performance reasons. Are we past that need with todays 
current baseline server products?

Again, Thank you and anyone who replies to this dialog. It is very appreciated 
in helping raise confidence with this project.
