In this version, it is an 'add on' that you have to download separately from the Asterisk source tree. The instructions given by Warren Selby are correct. When you do the 'make menuselect', you are presented with a menu with 5 options. Under 'Applications' you need to check app_addon_sql_mysql. Under 'Call Detail Recording' select cdr_addon_mysql. Under 'Resource Modules' check res_config_mysql. Exit from menuselect and type 'make'. You probably do not need the res_config_mysql, but it does not hurt anything to compile it. Aslo as mentioned in another thread, you do need to have mysql-devel package installed. Then run 'make' and 'make install' and 'make samples'. This will build the modules app_addon_sql_mysql.so, cdr_addon_mysql.so and res_config_mysql.so and install them in /usr/lib/asterisk/modules. This does not change any existing modules, just adds the new ones. Start an Asterisk cli (asterisk -r) and issue the command 'module load app_addon_sql_mysql'. This should load the module and the MYSQL app will be available in your dialplan. To verify it is loaded, you can issue the command 'module show like sql' You should also check the /etc/asterisk/modules.conf file. There should be a line that says 'autoload=yes'. If it says no, you will have to add a line 'load = app_addon_sql_mysql' (do not include the quotes). Note: If you want to load cdr_addon_mysql, you will have to add a 'load = cdr_addon_mysql' line as well. This file is read by asterisk at startup, so after you restart asterisk for the first time after these changes, make sure the module is loaded with the module show command. 2- can you please veify the menu below and tell me waht is wrong thanks and regards [default] exten = 529,1,Ringing() exten = 529,2,Wait(4) exten = 529,3,Goto(accueil,s,1) [accueil] ; définition d’un contexte pour l’accueil exten = s,1,SetGlobalVar(sounds_path=/**var/lib/asterisk/sounds/) exten = s,2,Background(${sounds_path}**welcome) exten = s,3,goto(accueil,s,1) exten = #,1,Goto(menu,s,1) exten = i,1,Playback(${sounds_path}**erreur-saisie) exten = i,2,goto(accueil,s,1) exten = t,1,Goto(accueil,s,1) [menu] exten = s,1,Background(${sounds_path}**menu) exten = 0,1,Goto(menu,s,1) exten = 1,1,Goto(appel,s,1) exten = 2,1,Goto(message,s,1) exten = 3,1,NoOp(User chose support option) exten = 3,n,MYSQL(Connect connid localhost aheevaccs aheevaccs aheevaccs) exten = 3,n,MYSQL(Query resultid ${connid} update test set count = count + 1 where option_name = 'support') exten = 3,n,MYSQL(Clear ${resultid}) exten = 3,n,MYSQL(Disconnect ${connid}) exten = 3,n,Goto(support,s,1) exten = s,2,goto(menu,s,1) exten = i,1,Playback(${sounds_path}**erreur-saisie) exten = i,2,Goto(menu,s,1) exten = t,1,Goto(menu,s,1) [appel] ; définition d’un contexte pour le menu d’appel exten = s,1,Background(${sounds_path}**appel) exten = s,2,WaitExten(10) exten = 0,1,Goto(menu,s,1) exten = 223,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN},20,tr) exten = i,1,Playback(${sounds_path}**erreur-saisie) exten = i,2,Goto(appel,s,1) exten = t,1,Goto(appel,s,1) [message] ; définition d’un contexte pour la messagerie exten = s,1,VoiceMailMain(${**CALLERIDNUM}) exten = t,1,Hangup() [support] ; définition d’un contexte pour le support exten = s,1,GoToIfTime(09:00-17:00|**mon-fri|*|*?s,4) exten = s,2,Playback(${sounds_path}no-**relation-support) exten = s,3,Goto(menu,s,1) exten = s,4,Playback(${sounds_path}**relation-support) exten = s,5,Queue(default) exten = t,1,Hangup() In the [accueil] context, you call Background with the name of the file to play, then immediately return to the top and play the message again, and again and again.

The -devel packages are a throwback to the bad old days, when Internet connectivity was by dial-up modem and hard disk space was scarce. Basically, when you build a package from Source Code, there are some files that get left behind and aren't needed just for day-to-day use of the program, but are essential if you need to build something else that works with the package. To trim down the size of downloadable packages, these development files were abstracted away into separate packages. Nine out of ten Linux users have to compile a package from source at some stage and the tenth one is probably lying. Most people wouldn't notice the extra space taken up by -devel packages, and the ones that would -- perhaps because they're building embedded systems, or have other disk space constraints -- are smart enough to know what to do. Yet distributions continue to separate out these packages and in the process, make the whole process of compiling from source unnecessarily complicated. Even an option in the installer to select always install -devel package if it exists would be a good beginning. Distro maintainers -- are you listening?

Plugged in my Valcom 2924 public address analog connection, called the extension and I got busy... very strange I thought.

[asterisk-users] vall directly extensions from E1-PRI line
Hi all, As a new on asterisk i have some silly questions. I'll try to connect an asterisk PBX between Telephone provider and an AVAYA Definity PBX. I've already install elastix-2.2.0 i386 version on a PC with a DE210 ISDN PRI card. In previous status we can dial from external directly to 4digits extensions (i.e. the call NX7721 ring the extension 7721). At the moment on IP phones i can call only 3digits (i.e. the call NX7721 ring the extension 721 and never the extension 7721). Has anyone any idea how can i fix it. Thanks in advantage D.

Re: [asterisk-users] Issue with Polycom SPIP650 and its sidecar
When the side car looses it entries, what does the config file show for the entries. This happened to me one time but that was only because for some reason, the contacts file was deleted by accident and I had to recreate it. ( I have a backup now too! ) It probably as Dan said, check the firmware and get the latest. Make sure your sidecar is pushed down all the way. Possible get a new IP650 and see if it exhibits the same behavior. I am pretty positive its not asterisk related.

Re: [asterisk-users] Issue with Polycom SPIP650 and its sidecar
Hi Olivier, It if occurs only on the sidecar, I would imagine this is either a defective sidecar/Polycom phone, or a defective PoE switch not giving enough power. Changing PoE port would eliminate of confirm the PoE port being the issue, but I'm betting on a Polycom defect. Make sure the PoE port is configured (if it`s a smart switch) to send maximum power to the port, with a sidecar I think the phone requires 12W.

In this version, it is an 'add on' that you have to download separately from the Asterisk source tree. The instructions given by Warren Selby are correct. When you do the 'make menuselect', you are presented with a menu with 5 options. Under 'Applications' you need to check app_addon_sql_mysql. Under 'Call Detail Recording' select cdr_addon_mysql. Under 'Resource Modules' check res_config_mysql. Exit from menuselect and type 'make'. You probably do not need the res_config_mysql, but it does not hurt anything to compile it. Aslo as mentioned in another thread, you do need to have mysql-devel package installed. Then run 'make' and 'make install' and 'make samples'. This will build the modules app_addon_sql_mysql.so, cdr_addon_mysql.so and res_config_mysql.so and install them in /usr/lib/asterisk/modules. This does not change any existing modules, just adds the new ones. Start an Asterisk cli (asterisk -r) and issue the command 'module load app_addon_sql_mysql'. This should load the module and the MYSQL app will be available in your dialplan. To verify it is loaded, you can issue the command 'module show like sql' You should also check the /etc/asterisk/modules.conf file. There should be a line that says 'autoload=yes'. If it says no, you will have to add a line 'load = app_addon_sql_mysql' (do not include the quotes). Note: If you want to load cdr_addon_mysql, you will have to add a 'load = cdr_addon_mysql' line as well. This file is read by asterisk at startup, so after you restart asterisk for the first time after these changes, make sure the module is loaded with the module show command. 2- can you please veify the menu below and tell me waht is wrong thanks and regards [default] exten = 529,1,Ringing() exten = 529,2,Wait(4) exten = 529,3,Goto(accueil,s,1) [accueil] ; définition d’un contexte pour l’accueil exten = s,1,SetGlobalVar(sounds_path=/**var/lib/asterisk/sounds/) exten = s,2,Background(${sounds_path}**welcome) exten = s,3,goto(accueil,s,1) exten = #,1,Goto(menu,s,1) exten = i,1,Playback(${sounds_path}**erreur-saisie) exten = i,2,goto(accueil,s,1) exten = t,1,Goto(accueil,s,1) [menu] exten = s,1,Background(${sounds_path}**menu) exten = 0,1,Goto(menu,s,1) exten = 1,1,Goto(appel,s,1) exten = 2,1,Goto(message,s,1) exten = 3,1,NoOp(User chose support option) exten = 3,n,MYSQL(Connect connid localhost aheevaccs aheevaccs aheevaccs) exten = 3,n,MYSQL(Query resultid ${connid} update test set count = count + 1 where option_name = 'support') exten = 3,n,MYSQL(Clear ${resultid}) exten = 3,n,MYSQL(Disconnect ${connid}) exten = 3,n,Goto(support,s,1) exten = s,2,goto(menu,s,1) exten = i,1,Playback(${sounds_path}**erreur-saisie) exten = i,2,Goto(menu,s,1) exten = t,1,Goto(menu,s,1) [appel] ; définition d’un contexte pour le menu d’appel exten = s,1,Background(${sounds_path}**appel) exten = s,2,WaitExten(10) exten = 0,1,Goto(menu,s,1) exten = 223,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN},20,tr) exten = i,1,Playback(${sounds_path}**erreur-saisie) exten = i,2,Goto(appel,s,1) exten = t,1,Goto(appel,s,1) [message] ; définition d’un contexte pour la messagerie exten = s,1,VoiceMailMain(${**CALLERIDNUM}) exten = t,1,Hangup() [support] ; définition d’un contexte pour le support exten = s,1,GoToIfTime(09:00-17:00|**mon-fri|*|*?s,4) exten = s,2,Playback(${sounds_path}no-**relation-support) exten = s,3,Goto(menu,s,1) exten = s,4,Playback(${sounds_path}**relation-support) exten = s,5,Queue(default) exten = t,1,Hangup() In the [accueil] context, you call Background with the name of the file to play, then

Re: [asterisk-users] Installing asterisk on a server vs appliance(e.g digium mypbx)
At the most basic level, typically an appliance will have a GUI and be geared towards non-tech installation. Loading bare Asterisk on a server is very different. Do you want a GUI or bare Asterisk? BTW, the MyPBX product is not a Digium product, it's from an oriental company named Yeastar. My experience in talking to them about their phones has been so-so. Historically we've had awful experiences with other Chinese phone vendors and have stopped considering products from Chinese companies. We did not actually try Yeastar products.

Re: [asterisk-users] how to find out one way latency
a ping is the time a packet needs for travelling to a destination and back to you. So the one way latency you are refering to, should be half the time your ping took. In your case this will be 130ms, I would say this is still reasonable. I am probably splitting hairs, but that's not always true because there's no guarantee that the reply traveled the same path as the echo request. If you dig into BGP issues you'll see sometimes that traffic one direction takes a different route than traffic the other direction. I don't know of any simple and accurate way to learn the one way latency so I'm surprised they specified anything other than round trip time. 'Ping time' is not an accurate predictor of SIP quality. A 'ping' is an ICMP Echo/reply packet and some routers consider them less important than 'data' packets and service them on an 'as resources permit' basis. That's possibly maybe true if someone's router or connection is overloaded and they are trying to make up for it with CoS policies while they save up for an upgrade. Otherwise it's an apology for a crappy network. That's the brutally honest truth. You can make a pretty good prediction with ping. sudo ping -f -i .02 -s 180 -Q 0xb8 [ip] gives a tolerable simulation of voip traffic. let it run for awhile, then press ctrl+c and see how many packets were dropped and also check the mdev number. If mdev is low and packet loss is almost nothing then you can expect decent voice quality. It may not be a 100% perfect test, but I'll bet you a vast majority of the time I can do that test and tell you whether it's going to suck. latency by itself with low jitter and no packet loss just means delay. It's a matter of opinion and circumstance how tolerable delay is, but I think your 230ms ping is at the upper edge of what most people can live with. Much more than that and you'll be tempted to say 'over' at the end of sentence. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Walkie talkie to sip phone interfacere:
I've been trying to find a solution that would allow our sip phones to communication with walkie talkies. Our setup is that we have sip phones setup in 2 locations, headquarters and dome. We can communication from headquarters and dome through sip phones, but within the dome we have technicians that use walkie talkies to communicate as they go about their work. Our hope is to allow 2 way communications from our sip phones at headquarters (or within the dome) with our technicians using their walkie talkies as they are working throughout the dome. Not sure if this is possible but I would appreciate any suggestions. It's definitely possible. How practical it is, remains to be seen and is probably a how well do the details work out? issue. The simplest approach is probably this: you'll need a walkie talkie base station which will serve as the transmit/receive point for the dome. The most straightforward would be to use one of the actual walkie talkie radios, with a well-filtered DC power supply in place of a battery pack. You would need to hook up the W/T's speaker out and mic in, and perhaps the push to talk line, to suitable audio and control I/Os on some sort of Asterisk end-point. The least expensive way would probably be to use the Asterisk server itself (or some PC running a soft-phone client), and use the PC/server's sound card jacks. You would need some sort of level-adjusting (padding) system for the signal being fed into the walkie talkie's mic input (these generally require much less voltage than a sound card's line-level output), and it would probably be a good idea to have an audio isolation transformer in each audio path to prevent ground loops and hum and RF pickup. You'd need some way of keying the radio's push-to-talk when someone on the phone starts to speak, and then release PTT when the voice stops. Some walkie talkies have a VOX (voice-operated switch) which will do the job. Others do not, and you would need a separate VOX circuit (not difficult). One possible hardware device which might save you trouble is the Tigertronics SignaLink USB - it's primarily designed for and sold to amateur-radio operators but has multiple uses. It consists of a USB sound card, isolation transformers, an adjustable VOX/PTT circuit, and a very flexible radio-interconnect-cable system which you could adapt to the speaker/mic needs of your walkie talkie. You'd simply plug it into the server's USB jack, and it would become a secondary audio interface. On the Asterisk side, you'd want to use the ALSA channel driver, and create an inbound extension which would simply dial the ALSA channel. Or, you might decide to use one of the various Asterisk bridging/conference applications, and have the ALSA walkie-talkie channel be perpetually signed into a conference bridge which one or more other users could phone into. You'll need to select and implement a suitable security policy, to control who can access your dome audio link, and decide whether someone in the dome can use a walkie talkie with DTMF capability to dial calls or otherwise control the Asterisk system via radio. Finally, you need to make sure that all of this is legal in your particular jurisdiction. Here in the U.S., there are quite a few personal and mobile-radio services for which it is *not* legal to create a connection to the wired telephony system. This is probably something you should determine first, rather than at the end. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] how to find out one way latency

Re: [asterisk-users] how to find out one way latency
I would bet you get about the same result with the two providers.all else being equal. mdev (mean deviation) is a simple way to measure jitter, and you have to put in context with the min/avg/max numbers. If I had 7ms of deviation and average times of 4ms, that would be an issue because you would be likely to get packets out of order. But 7ms compared to 286ms probably means nothing. Your biggest problem with both providers is delay, but if you can tolerate the delay you have now, then you can probably tolerate the delay with the other provider. Also note that although packet loss is 0%, some packets are still dropped in both cases. One dropped packet means a small amount of audio is lost (depends on codec, but often 20ms). If those handful of dropped packets are scattered evenly then you wouldn't notice it, but it's common for them to occur in a cluster. If the 13 packets dropped in the first example all happened at once you would have lost 260ms of audioand you would certainly hear that. You may be able to tell by watching the periods appear on the screen when you run the ping command. Each period is a dropped packetif they accumulate in a burst then something is happening that you would hear on the phone. WOW..

From google I fould the list of below devices but I am not sure that these are best for used or have an issue *1)Polycom SoundStation IP 7000 * *Why it's best: *The Polycom SoundStation IP 7000 is the most advanced conference phone from the Polycom SoundStation lineup and leaves little to be desired. With an amazing 20’ 360 radius, the 7000 is perfect for large conference rooms. The new HD voice quality (22 kHz) allows. * * *2) Polycom Voicestation 500* * * *Why it's a best pick: *The Polycom VoiceStation 500 is one of the best conference phones for a wide variety of reasons. The VoiceStation 500 features amazing call quality, 7’ 360 radius, Bluetooth connectivity, wired connection, background noise reduction, and an attractive design. * * *3)Panasonic - 8-Microphone Speakerphone with Caller ID KX-TS730S* * * *Why it's a best pick: *With a 360 10’ radius and 8 microphones, everyone is sure to be heard with the Panasonic KX-TS730S. The multiple microphones allows for everyone sitting in on the conference to be heard uniformly without distortion. * * *4)Cisco Unified IP Conference Station 7937G Conference VoIP Phone* * * *Why it's a best pick: *The Cisco 7937G works via VoIP connection, has stunning call clarity, and features a simplistic but expensive design that is easy to use. Cisco is an industry leader in IT communication products, and the 7937G is no different. The 360 design allows everyone to be heard. * * *5)Polycom SoundStation VTX 1000* * * *Why it's a best pick: *The SoundStation VTX 1000 is an incredible conference phone, but it is very pricey and not as good as advertised. The VTX 1000 is designed for large conference rooms and features upgradable software (which is a huge benefit since the cost is so high), 20’ 360 radius. 6)Polycom® SoundStation® IP 5000* 7) GXP2120 6-line Executive HD IP Phone * On Wed, Nov 30, 2011 at 1:47 PM, Faisal Hanif fai...@vopium.com wrote: I have tried EyeBeam and it worked fine with x members audio conference however it need resources (Processing + RAM) per additional line. ** ** Regards, ** ** Faisal Hanif ** ** *From:* asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] *On Behalf Of *virendra bhati *Sent:* Wednesday, November 30, 2011 11:51 AM *To:* Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion; Danny Nicholas; Sam Govind *Subject:* [asterisk-users] Best VoIP conferencing phone ? ** ** Hi , I know it's might not the right way to asking such stupid question.
