[asterisk-users] announcement server using asterisk

2008-07-26 Thread ballamudi madhulika
Hi

Can I use Asterisk as an announcement server. We want to build announcement
server with ISDN PRI card terminating on our server and announcement being
fed on the incoming calls.
Also is there any ISDN card available for Laptop.

[asterisk-users] Need Help Regarding Asterisk

2008-07-26 Thread Preetish Kakkar
Hi,I need a bit of help regarding setting up asterisk. I am trying to
setup a simple PBX for a small office we have. We just need 4 extensions. I
would like to spent as less as possible.

The below are possible solutions i can think off.

 1.) I use a Digium Card and connect my PSTN line to the asterisk server.
Asterisk would then forward the call to particular extension according to
whatever user presses. The extensions would be another set up of analog
telephone which would receive the call forward by asterisk. What else
(HardWare) i would need except asterisk and digium card...?

2.) I use the digium card and connect my PSTN line to asterisk server. Then
it forward calls to 4 pc's (ip addr)  which has some kind of software
installer (soft phone)  and it shows like some call is coming and user can
recieve call and talk using headphone.. Again what else i need..?

Thanks, Preeteesh

This is not likely to work. It would require Asterisk to constantly poll
the database.

But then again, you can easily originate calls from the manager
interface if you want to initiate a call from a remote host.

With the right dialplan and scripts or AGIs, I don't see why not.  
Shouldn't be a problem at all.

 Also is there any ISDN card available for Laptop.

What type of laptop? (PCMCIA or ExpressCard?)  What type of ISDN? 
(BRI/T1/E1?)

So it works well as a packagee. So it has proper dependencies on the
kernel package isntalled. So you could upgrade kernel and relatively
easily upgrade Zaptel. So you could use 'rpm -V' to check for files.

Re: [asterisk-users] different gains per channel?

2008-07-26 Thread Ex Vito

 I need to have different gain settings on each channel. Is this easy to
 achieve?


  txgain, rxgain and many other parameters are defined on a per-channel
  basis in zapata.conf, they're not global. Each channel definition
channel = x
  assumes previous definitions of such parameters.

  Example:

  txgain=3.0
  rxgain=0.0
  channel = 1
  channel = 2

  Both channel 1 and 2 will have the same gains (both previously defined).

  txgain=3.0
  rxgain=0.0
  channel = 1
  txgain=-4.5
  rxgain=0.0
  channel = 2

  Now you get different gains for channels 1 and 2. Again, as defined
  before the channel = x definition.

  Cheers,

[asterisk-users] Using manager originate and Dial() once inside dialplan

2008-07-26 Thread Ron McCarthy
Hi List,

We are trying to make a click 2 call button, we have a PHP script that
passes the 1st phone number of the 1st leg to a manager script, that then
dials the 1st call, then the 2nd call gets placed inside of Asterisk using a
normal dial command. Problem is, we get no status codes, we cannot see if
their was a hangup, a answer anything, and also once the callers hangs up,
it's killed and cannot execute more commands any dial plan. Any advice on
what to do? Is their another way to start a call but from the CLI or
something, we just want to dial part 1, if they pick up/press 1 then it
dials part 2, then they bridge the call, pretty easy I would think

Any help would be great!

Ok, I'll try to post something more helpful.

Just pointing you to http://www.google.com/search?q=isdn+pcmcia
doesn't make much sense as it depends on what you're looking for.
Obviously it can't be too hard to find any ISDN card.
I know there are BRI-PCMCIA cards. Not sure about PRI. Even
if you could find one I would probably not even give it a try.
You should be a bit more specific about what kind of ISDN card
you need and what connectors / bus / slots your laptop has to
offer. PCMCIA is common but my MacBook doesn't have a PCMCIA
slot for example. My PowerBook did.

All I wanted to say is that I found card XYZ, can anybody confirm
that it's the right one for me / that works with Asterisk / share
your experiences is better than I need XY, point me to it
(paraphrasing).

Grygoriy already named a product from Xorcom (USB) which might
be an alternative solution.

The question you haven't answered yet, Joseph, is how does your

 Sorry Jay,
 I ended up in an offline conversation with someone regarding this.
 Its on an analogue setup, it has an RJ-21 connector coming from a
 punchdown block next to it.

 I think the best way is to use T1 card in the asterisk server and
 connect to the Meridian with a T1 card as well. The Meridian can
 gain a T1 interface relatively cheap.

 I'm still hazy on how a user in the Meridian system would dial an extension
 for a voip only user on the asterisk server behind it?

 Thanks!

I have done dozens and dozens of jobs like this.

You don't want to put Asterisk behind the legacy system, you want to
put it in front.  Asterisk goes in between the telco and the legacy
PBX.

If you are getting different advice, then I think the person giving
the advice does not have much experience integrating Asterisk with
legacy systems.  While it may work, it is going to be overly complex
and eliminate a huge amount flexibility afforded, than putting
Asterisk in the middle.

Thanks,
Steve T

[asterisk-users] CME/Asterisk Voicemail Problems

I am having problems with CME transferring calls that are busy or noan to 
voicemail which is on Asterisk. I have used the no supplementary-service sip 
moved-temporarily
 and no supplementary-service sip refer commands but when an outside call is

voicemail fine. Does anyone have any suggestions or experience integrating CME

Right. This is not supported. And you get there a warning:

As the '-' is parsed as a channel option (like 'r' or 'c').

What error/warning do you get when trying to use Zap/01 ?

Re: [asterisk-users] Need Help Regarding Asterisk

2008-07-26 Thread Preetish Kakkar
But how would my calls be transferred to extension phones from asterisk
server. Would i need to connect those phones to Digium card as well. What i
mean is would digium card have a main extension where i would connect main
pstn line and other 3 port where i would connect another phone line which
would be used as extension is that so??

  Hi,I need a bit of help regarding setting up asterisk. I am trying
 to setup a simple PBX for a small office we have. We just need 4 extensions.
 I would like to spent as less as possible.

 The below are possible solutions i can think off.

  1.) I use a Digium Card and connect my PSTN line to the asterisk server.
 Asterisk would then forward the call to particular extension according to
 whatever user presses. The extensions would be another set up of analog
 telephone which would receive the call forward by asterisk. What else
 (HardWare) i would need except asterisk and digium card...?

 2.) I use the digium card and connect my PSTN line to asterisk server.
 Then it forward calls to 4 pc's (ip addr)  which has some kind of software
 installer (soft phone)  and it shows like some call is coming and user can
 recieve call and talk using headphone.. Again what else i need..?

 Thanks, Preeteesh

Re: [asterisk-users] Cisco Call Manager to Asterisk conversion

2008-07-26 Thread Chad Whitten
Al,

I managed a CCM/Unity setup for more than 5 years and saying that
Asterisk is less reliable is in my experience a stretch.  I will agree
that Cisco makes excellent gateways, routers and switches and their
pstn gateways are top notch but I was never a fan of CCM and
especially Unity.  We were plagued with failures on the Unity server -
mostly because of the use of Microsoft Exchange.

During this same time, I ran Asterisk as a conference bridge,
voicemail server and fax to email server and never had the issues I
had with CCM, and did much more for much less in terms of $ as well.
For the most part, CCM did what it was tasked for, but I think that
Asterisk has reached a point where it can compete at the reliability
level and support can for Asterisk via the open source community and
commercial vendors is acceptable for my needs which is why I am
choosing to switch rather than continue on the upgrade cycle with CCM.

I think Asterisk is the future for the IP-PBX realm, both homegrown
and commercial,  and CCM is a dead end.

 I need to replace a cisco call manager with an asterisk box.  Phones
 are cisco 7940 and 7910. I know the 40's can use SIP but the 7910's
 have to use the skinny/sccp driver.  Its been quite awhile since I did
 anything with asterisk, so I am looking for some assistance with the
 configuration and am willing to pay.  Its a basic setup, 30+ phones,
 incoming lines via PRI, 1 dial plan for incoming and outgoing -
 nothing fancy there, voicemail for each phone and DID number for each
 phone.

 Right. This is not supported. And you get there a warning:
 
   zt_request: Unknown option '-'
 
 As the '-' is parsed as a channel option (like 'r' or 'c').
 
 Time to fix voip-info.

Except that that is what Asterisk is giving *us*:

-- IAX2/VICIast26-19 answered Zap/73-1
-- Zap/11-1 is ringing
-- Zap/11-1 answered SIP/101cathy-0824cda0

As nearly as I can discern, those are messages where the Zap channel
ide is being generated by Asterisk, based on no particular
configuration we gave it (there are lots of others, but they could just
be repeating an argument they were passed; mostly Application
messages).

We do in fact, see that zt_request message, but it's not like we made
*up* the whole 73-1 thing... :-)

You can replace the '-1' with 'X56456456', '_123123' or 'p0'. It would
be likewise (in)valid, give a warning regarding invalid option but
dial anyway.

 Hi,I need a bit of help regarding setting up asterisk. I
 am trying to setup a simple PBX for a small office we have. We
 just need 4 extensions. I would like to spent as less as
 possible.

 The below are possible solutions i can think off.   

  1.) I use a Digium Card and connect my PSTN line to the
 asterisk server. Asterisk would then forward the call to
 particular extension according to whatever user presses. The
 extensions would be another set up of analog telephone which
 would receive the call forward by asterisk. What else
 (HardWare) i would need except asterisk and digium card...?

 2.) I use the digium card and connect my PSTN line to asterisk
 server. Then it forward calls to 4 pc's (ip addr)  which has
 some kind of software installer (soft phone)  and it shows
 like some call is coming and user can recieve call and talk
 using headphone.. Again what else i need..? 

 Thanks, Preeteesh

If you want to test inbound and fill all of your channels, you could
post something creative on Craigslist and then put them all in a queue
with MOH that would keep them on the line.

Or you could make a dialplan that takes the inbound caller ID and turn
around and dial it.  Do that with one of your DIDs and you should fill
all your channels pretty quickly.

Anyways, with a PRI, when I see the channels come up and I can dial
out and in, I have never had an issue with a particular channel.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro

Preetish,

There are many ways to do this. The phone line(s) will need to be
connected to FXO interfaces. You can get single units or cards to do 4
or more lines.

If you have no analog (normal) telephones that need to be used, you
will usually want to purchase SIP phones or use software. If you do
have analog phones, you want one FXS interface per phone to connect to
asterisk.

Once you have the hardware hooked up, asterisk will route the calls
according to the dialplan you create.

Take a look at a site like http://voipsupply.com or a more local
equivalent if you can find one that sells this stuff. It's a good way
to see what is currently available and get an idea of prices.

2008-07-26 Thread Eric ManxPower Wieling
The something is generated by Asterisk at the time the call is 
created.  You should never add it, since you don't control that call 
instance info.  In fact, you should almost never care about the call 
instance string.  The -1 means first instance of a call on this 
channel, a -2 would be seen in you answer a 2nd call for call waiting.
