Hello Guys, Hope everyone is fine, I have one issue coming in asterisk , What i am doing is i am generating a callback if some one calls at a specif access number on asterisk, Asterisk sends a busy signal to the calling party that he received a request from party and then sends the call back to the person from where asterisk received a request but in From field as you can see below astrisk is sending the calling ID as asterisk and username same , What i want is that it should forward some CLI in From Field , I have done my best effort but still not resolved i am adding a callerid in script still same please help me if some one can IP1:5060 - IP2:5060 INVITE sip:0423347871...@ip2:5060 SIP/2.0..Via: SIP/2.0/UDP IP1:5060;branch=z9hG4bK-966123148--16781 75694--693700493-4-..Via: SIP/2.0/UDP IP1:5065;branch=z9hG4bK00749b6d;rport..Call-Id: 4f8a33b207cd65f060b083b57 804d...@ip1..to 804d...@117.20.20.234..to: sip:3347871...@ip1.. * *From: asterisksip:aster...@ip1:5065;tag=as0cae0b** see the last part this is what that i want to change here in from it should be some CLI thanks Masood ___ -- 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

This may be a long shot... I have experienced this when two SIP phones had the same IP address (a bug by itself of course). Now, obviously the SIP phone should not just play any random audio that someone throws at it, but apparently life is not so simple. /Benny ___ -- 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] Please some enlightment on ENUM !!
SIP schrieb: Yes... you would have to register (and possibly pay for, dependent on the ENUM registrar) each individual number. The idea behind ENUM is that it's an E164 number that is already yours that maps to whatever you want it to map to (email, SIP, etc). The key point here is that you already own the E164 number. If you do, then you could register them all at e164.org for free. If you don't own the individual numbers, you shouldn't be allowed to register them as your own. That sort of breaks the ENUM concept of a number you take with you as a personal identifier. N. ___ -- 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 Hi N. ! Thanks for your answer. Either I don't understand what you want to tell me or this thread slowly drifts away from my original question. My original question was: If you own a telephone number which connects to your company and you have a PBX (like asterisk) and some extesniosn behind that, how/where do you enum-register each extension so that each extension can be reached from outside by a SIP uri? Meanwhile I managed to speak to a technician at my-enum.at, which is my registrar at e164.arpa. He *comfirmed* my original assumption: If you have a telephone number and want to paticipate in enum, you have to register that number at - for example - e164.arpa. If you operate extensions behind that number and you want them to be reachable too, you have to run your own DNS server and register this server at e164.arpa. This server is naturally under your responsibility and you manage all your extension yourself. It is works exactly like any other DNS resolution.

[asterisk-users] [SOLVED] Cianet channel bank with noise and echo
snip Thats probably it You're relying on Asterisks software echo canceling I have seen mixed results. Have you tried adjusting gains? I'd do the following 1. Turn off echo canceler (makes it more obvious whilst you're trying to remove it) 2. Turn down both gains 3. listening' inside your network (i.e. listening to audio coming to your network from the PSTN), adjust the gain upwards until it sounds suitable 4. 'listening' outside of your network (i.e. listening to audio coming from your network to PSTN) do the same. 5. Test for echo. Adjust the gains down for the sound you hear back (i.e. if you hear person inside your network echoing, adjust the gain in '4'). 6. Try and get it as close to echo free as you can using this method 7. Enable any echo canceling you can find to 'tidy up' the leftover echo, try various ones if you need to. voip-info.org/wiki may help 8. Buy hardware echo cancelers next time ;) My echo problem was ajust gain, and enable echocanceller=mg2,1 for dahdi channels. Thanks for the help and troubleshooting guide.

Re: [asterisk-users] hardware echo cancellation
If I get an echo cancellation module for my Digium TE121 card, will I need to do any adjustments/configuration in Asterisk? You should probably still set the gain using rxgain and txgain. IME, it's much easier setting gains on a PRI than it is on a POTS line, though. I've worked with a couple of PRIs that need no adjustments at all. Is the hardware better than the software version? The hardware version is the same algorithm as the HPEC echo canceler. It's quite a bit better than the MG2 algorithm that comes free with asterisk and maybe slightly better than OSLEC. The convergence time of the hardware algorithm is pretty fast (time it takes for the EC to effectively get rid of echo on a call). FYI: If you're considering running the software-based HPEC for all channels on a T1/E1, you should use a reasonably fast machine, as it uses quite a bit of CPU. That's one big reason to get the hardware module. - Noah TIA! ___ -- 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 ___ -- 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

The rest can be used for speed dials, but these were of limited use to me since for some reason, although the line keys can be provisioned remotely over TFTP, the speed dials cannot. It's okay for personal use though. Personally moved off my 7960 in favour of the SNOM 370 as this supports far more features than the Cisco SIP image, which is only really a piece of migration fluff to enable Cisco to migrate customers away from competitors SIP systems onto Call Manager with the dual-boot/application loader. The SNOM perhaps doesn't look as fancy as the Cisco handset, but it wins hands-down on SIP features. (the remote provisioning system was a little complicated to set up, but once set up it's okay.) It's a shame since the Cisco is a very capable (and expensive) handset, just let down by no development in the software other than small bug fixes for many years. ___ -- 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

[asterisk-users] Channel Variable
Hi I have been using the CHANNEL variable as a way of checking if a user is allowed to make outgoing calls, and what their source caller ID should be (these values are in a database). This works all of the time with SIP and most of the time with IAX, however sometimes with IAX the channel variable seems to be wrong. I have been using Zoiper as my IAX client and Asterisk 1.6.2.0-rc6. For the sake of debugging I have Verbose(1,Outgoing Call Handler ${CUT(CHANNEL,-,1)}) in the (internal - not default) dial plan. Most of the time the channel variable is IAX2/10007 which is the desired behaviour (with 10007 being the IAX username) but some of the time IAX2/192.168.1.111:4569 is shown instead. I would like to know why this is happening and if there is anything that can be done to make it show the IAX2/10007 form every time? I realise that I could use ${CDR(accountcode)} instead, and as it happens this returns the correct account code value in both cases. However, I wanted to be able to do this on a per-channel basis and multiple channels currently share a common accountcode. Any ideas what's going on here, is there something obvious I'm missing? Thanks in advance.

With the skinny firmware you configure the lines and speeddials in asterisk skinny.conf :) Personally moved off my 7960 in favour of the SNOM 370 as this supports far more features than the Cisco SIP image, which is only really a piece of migration fluff to enable Cisco to migrate customers away from competitors SIP systems onto Call Manager with the dual-boot/application loader. Asterisk has chan_skinny. The SNOM perhaps doesn't look as fancy as the Cisco handset, but it wins hands-down on SIP features. (the remote provisioning system was a little complicated to set up, but once set up it's okay.) It's a shame since the Cisco is a very capable (and expensive) handset, just let down by no development in the software other than small bug fixes for many years. If you dont like it, send the cisco to wedhorn or me so we can make chan_skinny even better. ;) -- Michiel van Baak mich...@vanbaak.eu http://michiel.vanbaak.eu GnuPG key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=getsearch=0x71C946BD Why is it drug addicts and computer aficionados are both called users? ___ -- 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

My boss wanted to have 1 physical phone but have it register to a couple of different extensions, then use different ringtones to identify which line was ringing when a call came in. The grandstream gxp2000's have 4 lines, and this is what I did - I have 2 sip channels registered with the pbx, one for personal calls and one for business calls, so I can tell by which rings what type call it is, however what I did was use the 1st and 3rd channels since if I am on the line and another call comes in it rolls into the next line on the phone that way the roll happens to lines 2 and 4 that are not bound to an extension. if the roll happened to a channel that was registering rather than an empty button it would be confusing on the type of call. what is even more confusing is the 4 lines also roll into the speed dial / status buttons so if you have people on hold, it may look like you are getting a call from a speed dial link when its really an outside call. 4-6 lines sounds like a lot but I think in practice its more used for rollover than that many unique extensions on a phone.

Re: [asterisk-users] Please some enlightment on ENUM !!
Norbert Zawodsky skrev: SIP schrieb: Yes... you would have to register (and possibly pay for, dependent on the ENUM registrar) each individual number. The idea behind ENUM is that it's an E164 number that is already yours that maps to whatever you want it to map to (email, SIP, etc). The key point here is that you already own the E164 number. If you do, then you could register them all at e164.org for free. If you don't own the individual numbers, you shouldn't be allowed to register them as your own. That sort of breaks the ENUM concept of a number you take with you as a personal identifier.

Thanks for your answer. Either I don't understand what you want to tell me or this thread slowly drifts away from my original question. My original question was: If you own a telephone number which connects to your company and you have a PBX (like asterisk) and some extesniosn behind that, how/where do you enum-register each extension so that each extension can be reached from outside by a SIP uri? Meanwhile I managed to speak to a technician at my-enum.at, which is my registrar at e164.arpa. He *comfirmed* my original assumption: If you have a telephone number and want to paticipate in enum, you have to register that number at - for example - e164.arpa. If you operate extensions behind that number and you want them to be reachable too, you have to run your own DNS server and register this server at e164.arpa. This server is naturally under your responsibility and you manage all your extension yourself. It is works exactly like any other DNS resolution. But then you create phonenumbers in enum, which doesn't exist as pstn-numbers. Not the idea behind enum. On the other hand, if you owned 10 or 100 pstn-numbers in series, you could get the last one or two digits delegated to your dns-server.

[asterisk-users] Restricting transfers between SIP phones
Hello, We are in the process of splitting our phone system into two separate logical systems for our two departments. One of the goals of this switch is to restrict members of one department from transferring calls to the other, but not restrict them from calling that department themselves. So what I need to know is how to detect whether a call from a member of that department is a transfer or an original call. I've looked at the TRANSFER_CONTEXT setting, but that's only for transfers with # and the T and t flags to Dial(). But we use SIP hardphones (Linksys SPA942 Grandstream GXP2020), which have built-in transfer functions, and we would like to continue using those for transfers, rather than building it into features.conf or dialplan... Because we prefer attended transfers, and the user experience seems more modern. So, does anyone know of a way to detect whether a call from a SIP phone is the first step of an attended transfer or an original call? Thanks! -- C. Chad Wallace, B.Sc.

Re: [asterisk-users] 1950's UK rotary dial phone
Way back when, the wctdm driver needed a fix to make it more agreeable to pulse dials in the US. I suspect this is also the case in the UK. Speed and make break ratio are more critical , as pulse detection isn't nearly as smart as a PSTN exchange Search the wiki for more details. How that applies to the current set is unknown to me the suggested fix was never applied to the distributed code, and unfortunately there seems little interest in any support for pulse, or analog in general.
