Re: [asterisk-users] IAX2 phones, BRI and Analogue cards
Hi Hans, Can't you leave the picking up of the cli to the isdn line? Even if it is an ISDN1 (just a B-channel and a D-channel), the chances of tranferring channel info, like CLI, is better. If a call comes in over the POTS line, then I still need to get CLI over it. I'm not sure if the ISDN can be specified to replace the POTS analogue line, whilst retaining the analogue line + ADSL.

[asterisk-users] Monitoring QoS
Hello Fellow Users, I am looking for a way - using certain software or other techniques - to monitor, measure, and improve the quality of service for Asterisk system. During the last while, it seems the quality has decreased and am trying to look for ways to get things going well again.

Re: [asterisk-users] How to turn on the H323 logging on Asterisk
Hi Tony, Thanks a lot for the tips. I have turned on the logging and saw them in the console. However, this applies only for startup, when I try to register a user, which I cannot succeed, there is no logging done. Do you think you can give me an idea why my user cannot register? All I want to do is, send the register to a GK which has the IWF functionality. Attached I am sending my extensions.conf and ooh323.conf files. Sema is the end user and I believe mypeer is the GK definition, right? [mypeer1] type=peer ;context=context2 ip=10.192.192.6 ; UPDATE with appropriate ip address port=1720; UPDATE with appropriate port allow=all ;e164=101 [Sema] type=friend context=default ip=10.192.192.36 ; UPDATE with appropriate ip address port=1820; UPDATE with appropriate port ;disallow=all allow=all e164=05336887755 rtptimeout=60 dtmfmode=rfc2833 I would really appreciate if you can take a look.

Re: [asterisk-users] aSTERISK / Vicidial systems over 4MB fiber
I appreciate the responses thus far but I am looking to find out what type of security I should implement for the future. Being new to linux, not to mention asterisk I didn't realize that someone could brute force into the box and upload crap. With that in mind it seems that I would want to get a hardware firewall such as a hotbrick or a sonicwall firewall. My situation seems unique because I am not using a router even at this point. I was given a sheet of ip addresses and was told just to provision by devices with the given ip's and they would handle the rest. My devices are hooked directly to their switch in my location. This hasn't been an issue up until now because I only had analog (mediatrix and audiocodes 24 port gateways x 4) connected to the switch. Now I am going to a software based dialer (i.e. asterisk/ vicidial) and have run into these problems.

Re: [asterisk-users] IAX2 phones, BRI and Analogue cards
Hi; I would like just to know one thing: Where did u find a good IAX IP Phone? I am looking in the market since long time to buy such device and did not find a reliable one till now. Any advise? Regards Bilal --- Hi, I've been asked to spec up a small Asterisk system, which needs to: - Connect to ISDN2e (I'm thinking of using a B100P card here) - Connect to the POTS (A400P with 1 FXO) - Allow remote phones (thinking of an ETC 6050 utilising IAX2) It is a requirement that the POTS analogue card picks up CLI information - and I'm in the UK which, historically, has lousy CLI support certainly, my AX100P doesn't do it... does anyone have any good news about the A400P, or do I need to be hunting down a genuine Digium card? I'm further assuming that an IAX2 phone will work far more reliably through firewalls non-static IP addresses (Asterisk box will be on a static IP, remote/roaming office may not be) than a SIP phone, based on my experiences of getting IAX2 between Asterisks to work. So -- am I on the right lines with the hardware I've specced above, or should I be looking at alternatives? Can't you leave the picking up of the cli to the isdn line? Even if it is an ISDN1 (just a B-channel and a D-channel), the chances of tranferring channel info, like CLI, is better. I would leave the pots-interfaces for the people stuck with an ordinary phone (or fax).. Did you consider sipura 3102? Easier to scale than analogue cards.

Looking at http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+H323+channels it appears I was only partially correct. I never got chan_h323 working, so have less experience of that. According to the above wiki page, chan_h323 does use the Asterisk RTP stack, although it still uses the OpenH323 library for the protocol part. I used chan_oh323 for a long time 2 or 3 years ago, and it definitely didn't use Asterisk's RTP stack, nor its codecs. It used the ones that are part of OpenH323, and communicated with the chan_oh323 driver using pipes (I guess in slin format). It was very profligate in its use of system resources (file descriptors, CPU, etc), such that even on a dual Xeon system we got degradation above about 15 simultaneous calls. With both those versions, you easily run into version number hell with OpenH323 and PWlib, which is another reason, IMHO, to avoid them. I tried chan_ooh323 much more recently, and it just felt cleaner, more streamlined and better integrated with Asterisk. However, I have not yet used it in production. When I need to, this is the H.323 driver that I will use, and if necessary bug fix and/or enhance. And what do u mean by bridge properly? (How?) I guess since chan_h323 does indeed use Asterisk RTP, that it can bridge channels at the RTP packet level just like chan_ooh323 and chan_sip can. But chan_oh323 always had to pass audio through the Asterisk core because it didn't use Asterisk RTP. Your kindly help is high appreciated.

[asterisk-users] Dial command and its g option
I need to execute an action after a call is hangup. I just see the command Dial has an option for that, the g option. I configure the dial command as exten = s,n,Dial(SIP/100,100,Ttg) How should I add the line which the command will be executed after the dial command in this example?

Re: [asterisk-users] aSTERISK / Vicidial systems over 4MB fiber
What services do you need exposed to the internet and on what machines? Does the fiber just terminate into your switch then? What type of switch? Can you get access to the switch? If so you can probably create access control lists. You could put your own router in front to act as a firewall or/and NAT and add your own ACLs. As already suggested, turn off all unused services. Do not use some all in one rolled up ISO such as Trixbox. Change your ssh port. If at all possible, use OpenVPN (or whatever VPN) to connect all the machines together, as well as trusted clients then block all traffic in your ACLs (or firewall) except VPN, NTP, DNS, HTTP, and whatever I am missing.

[asterisk-users] Dialing vs forward - was RE: Asterisk : using setvar with IP Realtime and variable inheritance
See, to get back to your answer, this is what I`m not understanding: Again, this works fine. The problem is when I forward my calls to another outside line (using Polyocm phones), and need to know the ${did} value at that point. It's empty. Right, so the call path is: Provider -- Asterisk -- Polycom -- Asterisk--Provider The problem is that Polycom is in the call path. It doesn't know anything about Asterisk variables and so it doesn't pass them on [...]. I understand the Polycom doesn't know anything about my diaplan. BUT, the Polycom, when doing it's forwading, must be dialing by using a specific context, taking from a line registration. That context is taken from the sip_registration table (in my case), context column. This is what it does when I dial out, AND this is what it also seems to do when I forward. After all, a forward is just an automated outgoing call... So, a normal outgoing call out of my Polycom is using the exact same context that a forward is using. At least, that`s my observation and my premise. (by all means, if I am wrong somebody tell me know in what way). What is NOT the same is that the setvar variable (did=551234) is taken into account when dialing out, but not with a forward; it's empty. Why? Is this WAD or a bug, or am I missing an obscure option in Asterisk?

Being new to linux, not to mention asterisk I didn't realize that someone could brute force into the box and upload crap. With that in mind it seems that I would want to get a hardware firewall such as a hotbrick or a sonicwall firewall. One of the most frequent security issues comes not in the form of a software flaw, but simply in people choosing easy-to-guess passwords on the root account. There are two suggestions I have to reduce the risk of this brute force. First, choose a username that is uncommon. In your case, do not use 'root', 'admin', or even 'mark'. 'madams' might be a good choice. Once you figure out that username, configure sshd with the AllowUsers directive to ONLY allow logins from that user. If you need root access, install sudo. If an attacker cannot figure out what your username is, then it doesn't matter even if they guess your password, because they aren't getting in. And of course, the second part is choosing a secure password, one that contains mixed case, numbers, letters, and symbols. Don't be afraid to write down that secure password, as long as you keep it on your person (wallet is a good choice). 99% of the attackers who might otherwise compromise your machine will never come within 1000 miles of you. However, your wallet contains things that are far more valuable than your password (your identity documents, for example), so it is hoped that you will be able to keep that password away from people who would otherwise do you harm. -- Tilghman ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk and XMPP (Jabber) : testing new application JabberReceive
Philippe Sultan wrote: Friends, a new dialplan application is now available for testing : http://svn.digium.com/view/asterisk/team/phsultan/jabberreceive/ Sounds very cool. See below for more comments: The corresponding feature request is located here : http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=12569 What can you do with it? Well, a direct usage of this application is to make an easy to use GoogleTalk voice gateway out of Asterisk. Here is an example (assuming the asterisk-xmpp account is configured) : context gtalk-in { s = { NoOp(Caller id : ${CALLERID(all)}); Answer(); JabberSend(asterisk-xmpp,${CALLERID(name),Please enter the number you wish to call); JabberReceive(${CALLERID(name)},NEWEXTEN); How can you assume that the message you are waiting for is the right one ? Let's say that you have 10 channels each doing a JabberReceive at the same time - how does the channel know how to get the right message, let alone the right data ? (2 channels may be waiting for a NewExten message, others for a GetSomeDataFromSomeOtherPlace message ) Or am I missing something really obvious ? Julian JabberSend(asterisk-xmpp,$(CALLERID(name),(Calling ${NEWEXTEN} ...); Dial(SIP/${NEWEXTEN); Hangup(); } } In this example, when Asterisk receives a GoogleTalk voice call request from a GoogleTalk buddy, it answers the call, and asks the buddy to enter a number over an XMPP (Jabber) chat session. Then, Asterisk dials the extension (accessible over SIP), which results in a GoogleTalk to SIP call. But this application is not restricted to GoogleTalk voice calls, and it can be used within any call context. Code snippets are available in the corresponding feature request under the bugtracker as well as in doc/jabber.txt. The codebase is Asterisk's SVN trunk, which is merged to the jabberreceive branch on a regular basis. To install it, follow these steps : #svn co http://svn.digium.com/view/asterisk/team/phsultan/jabberreceive/ jabberreceive #cd jabberreceive #./configure #make #make install Note for Linux users : the Gnome IM+ToIP client Empathy (starting from version 0.23.1) is now compatible with Asterisk, which allows users to place voice calls over a GoogleTalk channel from their Empathy client to Asterisk.

If you had a PRI (ISDN) line and a dialup ISDN modem, it could conceivably be used for the function the OP needed. -- Tilghman ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

I was given a sheet of ip addresses and was told just to provision by devices with the given ip's and they would handle the rest. My devices are hooked directly to their switch in my location. This hasn't been an issue up until now because I only had analog (mediatrix and audiocodes 24 port gateways x 4) connected to the switch. Now I am going to a software based dialer (i.e. asterisk/ vicidial) and have run into these problems. This is one of the reasons why VoIP/Internet can be problematic: even if you have a firewall, you're required to expose your SIP or IAX ports to the net at large, whether through a firewall, or some sort of proxy -- which means you're at the mercy of people finding exploits in Asterisk that they can use to pwn your machine. Probably the only *really* good approach to this is the one we use here at Vici: don't let SIP and IAX out of the building. All of our PSTN connections are via traditional T-1 trunking to IXCs, and all of our agents are inside the building as well, on T-1/Zap/DAHDI channelbanks. If I ever do have to put people outside the building, I'll put them on secure VPNs, and the same if I have to trunk to commercial VoIP carriers. At the very least in this latter case, I'll IP lock the incoming connection, if I can't find a carrier that will do VoIP/VPN/Internet. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.

[asterisk-users] Using Asterisk Only as Voice Recording Solution.
HI, I am using TDM800P Digium Card with Asterisk 1.4.* version. I have fair command over Asterisk up till now and have run it in different scenarios such as Call Center Solution, PBX solution. There is a requirement to use Asterisk only as Voice Recording solution in following manner: 1. Physical POT lines before entering into our native PBX will be splitted and one of each of those lines will also enter into our Asterisk System. 2. Once the call is routed by our native PBX and recipient picks up the phone (either SIP phone or Analog Phone) I should be able to start recording the call. 3. When the call ends, the recording should stop. Problem being faced by me is this that I am able to catch the call in my diaplan and initialize MixMonitor but since my diaplan never detects OFF-HOOK/ON_HOOK condition it continue to wait and finally hang-up while in actual the call is running through our PBX. Is there any channel variable or any other mechanism by which I can accomplish this task? Since i will not be using any Dial() or similar application I will be needing some kind of OFF-HOOK trigger/Event in my dialplan.

Thanks Steve, How I can use it Asterisk as Man In The Middle. Since we have to keep our Native PBX intact and functioning but only thing it doesn't handle is Voice Recording.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk and XMPP (Jabber) : testing new application JabberReceive
Hi Julian, [...] What can you do with it? Well, a direct usage of this application is to make an easy to use GoogleTalk voice gateway out of Asterisk. Here is an example (assuming the asterisk-xmpp account is configured) : context gtalk-in { s = { NoOp(Caller id : ${CALLERID(all)}); Answer(); JabberSend(asterisk-xmpp,${CALLERID(name),Please enter the number you wish to call); JabberReceive(${CALLERID(name)},NEWEXTEN); How can you assume that the message you are waiting for is the right one ? Let's say that you have 10 channels each doing a JabberReceive at the same time - how does the channel know how to get the right message, let alone the right data ? (2 channels may be waiting for a NewExten message, others for a GetSomeDataFromSomeOtherPlace message ) Well, in the example, as long as you have 10 simultaneous GoogleTalk calls from 10 different buddies, that won't be a problem. The first argument of JabberReceive is used by the channel to identify the Jabber ID it expects to read data from. Therefore, a message coming from a specified buddy (identified by his JID) will be passed by res_jabber to the channel that is waiting for data from this buddy. In the case when several channels are waiting for data from the same JID, res_jabber passes the message to every channel that matches. Although this is less likely to happen, I tried to address this issue by using the thread tag to track chat conversations (http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0201.html). Unfortunately, very few XMPP clients implement this conversation tracking mechanism (and GoogleTalk does not).

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk and XMPP (Jabber) : testing new application JabberReceive
Hi Philippe, thanks for the replies. It all seems sensible. Now, for a request ;) How difficult would it be to have a JabberReceive Event *initiate* a channel ? This could be done by specifying a [EMAIL PROTECTED] in jabber.conf So, when a message is received by asterisk, a call is initiated in the extension and context defined, and have the jabber message details in variables ${JABBERFROM}, ${JABBERMESSAGE} etc etc. It would also be really useful to be able to initiate AMI commands via jabber ;) Julian Philippe Sultan wrote: Hi Julian, [...] What can you do with it?

Re: [asterisk-users] Using Asterisk Only as Voice RecordingSolution.
You will need exactly two times the number of ports that your legacy system has. Asterisk takes the call on _.,1,DAHDI, starts monitor and dials out the second DAHDI port to your legacy system.

Re: [asterisk-users] How to turn on the H323 logging on Asterisk
Hi Sema, In article [EMAIL PROTECTED], Sema Arca [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks a lot for the tips. I have turned on the logging and saw them in the console. However, this applies only for startup, when I try to register a user, which I cannot succeed, there is no logging done. Check your logger.conf file and make sure that verbose is going either to messages, or full or both. Then you will be able to extract relevant debug output for any future posting. Do you think you can give me an idea why my user cannot register? All I want to do is, send the register to a GK which has the IWF functionality. I haven't enough information to answer that, and I am not very familiar with gatekeepers anyway. Attached I am sending my extensions.conf and ooh323.conf files. A few things I noticed: In your extensions.conf, you have this: [h323] exten = _1NXXNXX,1,Dial,H323/${EXTEN} When using chan_ooh323, you need to use OOH323 instead of H323, and you also need to name the peer you want to dial out through: exten = _1NXXNXX,1,Dial(OOH323/[EMAIL PROTECTED]) Or possibly Sema instead of mypeer1, depending on what you need. In your ooh323.conf, you should disallow all codecs first, and then just allow the ones you want. For initial testing, just stick with ulaw or alaw: disallow=all allow=ulaw allow=alaw Then remove the allow=all from your peer, user and friend sections. There may well be other issues, but fix these first. Then if you still get problems, include the verbose output from the log file.

[asterisk-users] On Hold Context?
Hi list, I have some on hold activities that I would like to implement and I'm just wondering if there is a way to do it. Here's what I'm thinking: While a caller is on hold, they could have the option to do things like retrieve weather, news, play blackjack( ala tellme), etc. These are all things I could do in the conventional method of sending someone to a context, but I have no way to pull them out when their call is ready to be taken. As far as news, weather and any recorded info, I could theoretically do this by simply retreving the info and making an on hold class that used that audio, but is there anyway that would allow interaction (that doesn't involve tossing the caller into an empty conference room)?

Re: [asterisk-users] asterisk calls per second
Well, as I said, you can tell Asterisk to accept until 10 SIP calls, for example, at ANY TIME (I don't understand why per second, I mean, if the 10 calls are established in the same second, they are acepted, and so they are if they are established in the same milisecond, while the max concurrent calls is below the limit of 10). You can do something like this in your dialplan (assuming extensions like _3XX) exten=_3XX,1,Set(GROUP()=sip-calls) exten=_3XX,2,Set(GROUPCOUNT=${GROUP_COUNT(sip-calls)}) exten=_3XX,3,GotoIf($[${GROUPCOUNT} ${MAX_CALLS}]?120) exten=_3XX,4,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN}) exten=_3XX,5,Playback(unavailable) exten=_3XX.,6,Hangup exten=_3XX,120,Playback(try-later) exten=_3XX,121,Hangup where ${MAX_CALLS} is a variable defined by you that is the limit of calls to be accepted On Thu, Jun 12, 2008 at 12:16 PM, Mark Quitoriano [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: yeah something like that. is it possible to set asterisk to make 10 calls per second?

[asterisk-users] Odd Polycom Reboot Issue
Hello list- I'm having an extremely odd issue with an installation of mine. The system is running * 1.2.12.1 and currently handles around 100 handsets. With the exception of a few Grandstream DTA's, all devices are Polycom 320, 430, or 601's. After a recent power outage, I'm having an extremely odd issue with one of the handsets. One of the Polycom 601 units simply reboots every time it gets a call. As soon as the call hits the phone, a small blip is heard from the speaker, then the reboot is initiated. There is nothing shown in the asterisk logs to indicate the problem. Likewise, the logs sent by the phone via tftp are equally as useless. We've formatted the phone's filesystem causing it to get a fresh reflash of the firmware from tftp upon bootup. Same problem. Has anyone experienced an issue such as this? How should I proceed to diagnose and repair the problem? Thank you!! Tim Nelson Systems/Network Support Rockbochs Inc.

[asterisk-users] DUNDi question
Hello, I'm wondering about following DUNDI setup Suppose we have 2 Asterisks: astA and astB with DUNDI peering active between them and 2 SIP endpoints: sipA registered with astA and sipB regsitered on astB All this is on the same LAN now sipA call an number which corresponds to [EMAIL PROTECTED] , so astA lookups thru DUNDI at astB and forwards the call there. My question is how this fowarding is done ? Using SIP RE-INVITE, or REFER, or using SIP 301 responce with Contact pointing at [EMAIL PROTECTED] And does the final RTP stream traverse both Asterisks or only one of them or None of them?

[asterisk-users] Astricon question: four or five tracks?
We're busily churning away at creating the Astricon (http://www.astricon.net/) talk track this year, and it's been delayed by a problem that we've never had in years past: too many high-quality talk submissions. Not a bad problem to have, but still a problem. We have four tracks on the schedule: 1) Business Track - this relates to things like creating business models around Asterisk, technologies that embed aspects of Asterisk into their platforms, discussions of open source in the marketplace, and new technologies that can be added to Asterisk for specific application delivery reasons, among other topics. 2) Technology Track - Intro/Intermediate - Topics here range from basic introductions to Asterisk as far as feature sets and capabilities, and even into the moderately challenging topics of introductions to embedded systems and case studies. 3) Technology Track - Advanced - This includes more advanced implementation studies, protocol topics, new Asterisk features (LUA, for example), and inner workings of various Asterisk and third-party components. 4) Technology Track - Call Center/Large Scale - More case studies here but focused on large-scale systems. Carrier issues such as call recording, conferencing, clustering, and call center topics. We have had an overwhelming number of top-notch technical submissions for talks this year, which has been GREAT. Last year, we heard that there was a desire for even more technical tracks, so this year will fulfill that need. But we're stuck - we have way more topics than we have slots in the 4-track schedule, and so we've hit an impasse. We've had to start looking at cutting some really interesting topics because we simply don't have the space in the schedule. This is a terrible position, and so we're looking for what we can do to fix the problem. The obvious choice is Well, why don't you add a fifth track? So that is why I'm putting this message out. It's possible for us to add a fifth advanced technical track, but that would mean that there would be at any one time FIVE talks happening, four of which would be technical, and three of which would be classified as advanced. It will certainly be the case that there are overlapping areas of interest. Even with a fifth track, we are STILL going to have to turn down a few of the requests in the queue because of lack of slots, and at this point extending the conference another day is a very difficult option due to the hotel scheduling which is done far in advance. We also had some feedback from years past that a two-day conference seemed to suit everyone's schedules better, so this may be some unintended consequences from the compression. Our question to the community is: Is it too much to have 5 talk tracks at Astricon? Our initial instinct is Go ahead and do it but this does sound like a question that should be posed to the people who will attend. Your opinion would be valued if you could take the time to reply, but please try to summarize at the top of any replies with a Yes or No (even if you have more things to say) so I can keep a bit closer eye on the reply volumes.

Re: [asterisk-users] Astricon question: four or five tracks?
Hello, I would recommend that if you do add another tech track that you spend a great deal of effort trying to make sure that sessions that would appeal to similar audiances are not done at the same time. This has happened a few times in past Astricons and it's always a tough choice for attendees that are interested in both talks to choose between them. To this end, I might suggest even video-recording the presentations to be replayed at night during the conference(or possibly on the web) so attendees can see what they missed if they were unable to sit in on a presentation. One other suggestion I might make is that after 6PM I think there might be a benefit from loosly structured BOF or discussion sessions. There is only so much Red Bull and Alcohol you can drink in the code zone. I quickly organized two after-hours discussion sessions during last year's Astricon and actually had a few dozen people involved in each one, it would be great if this could be done on a larger scale and officially organized.

Re: [asterisk-users] time on asterisk
i'm using 64-bit Ubuntu Server Edition 8.04 I just use GMT+0, but i'm on Singapore whcih should be at GMT+8, but if i use GMT+8 the system does not give the correct time. You should actually be using Asia/Singapure rather than guess. i'm not using ntp, coz when i do i also don't get the correct time. That's because you have an incorrect timezone set. I am also using gotoiftime in my IVR but I don't have any problems. 1) Install the distro and specify the timezone 2) Set the correct time in linux 3) Install ntp 4) Sync the time by ntpdate ntp will always just sync using GMT time but the timezone specified in the distro will provide the time difference and daylight savings. That is it! Also, can someone clarify if Asterisk really uses a different time than the system time? ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [asterisk-users] Using Asterisk Only as Voice RecordingSolution.
Basically, you run the phone lines into the asterisk box, then out of the Asterisk system into the PABX. This works reasonably well, and gives you the option to migrate to a full asterisk setup in the future. PaulH Syed Nasruddin wrote: Thanks Steve, How I can use it Asterisk as Man In The Middle. Since we have to keep our Native PBX intact and functioning but only thing it doesn't handle is Voice Recording. I thought if I can get some Channel Variable or some system generated event regarding OFF-HOOK and ON-HOOK condition through Asterisk I will easily handle this requirement.

I have fair command over Asterisk up till now and have run it in different scenarios such as Call Center Solution, PBX solution. There is a requirement to use Asterisk only as Voice Recording solution in following manner: Physical POT lines before entering into our native PBX will be splitted and one of each of those lines will also enter into our Asterisk System. Once the call is routed by our native PBX and recipient picks up the phone (either SIP phone or Analog Phone) I should be able to start recording the call. When the call ends, the recording should stop. Problem being faced by me is this that I am able to catch the call in my diaplan and initialize MixMonitor but since my diaplan never detects OFF-HOOK/ON_HOOK condition it continue to wait and finally hang-up while in actual the call is running through our PBX. Is there any channel variable or any other mechanism by which I can accomplish this task? Since i will not be using any Dial() or similar application I will be needing some kind of OFF-HOOK trigger/Event in my dialplan. Your help will be highly appreciated. regards Syed Nasruddin It may not be possible to do this in parallel the way you are trying now. In series should be a simple task. Just pass the call through Asterisk as the man in the middle, the dialplan will be very simple.
