Re: [asterisk-users] Rate sheet normalization

2012-03-15 Thread SamyGo
could MS-Excel possibly be the easiest way to do that normalization ! just
merge two rate sheets put some formulas in there and use it in your
A2billing or XYZ tool  !

On Thu, Mar 15, 2012 at 10:07 AM, Ast Coder asteriskcod...@gmail.comwrote:

  A2Billing doesn't do that. A2Billing in fact has a lot of shortcomings
 one of which is this exact issue.

 I would suggest running rate sheets against each other for finding true
 LCR and then only uploading the rates that are cheaper into the system. In
 most cases there are not such high differences but if there are then this
 is the only way. I know rate normalization talk comes up all the time on
 FreeSwitch Freenode channel and it probably does on OpenSIPs as well. Check
 there for some good advice.

 How does a2billing do it? It should be pretty easy in an AGI. If you can
 afford a linear lookup per call, just grep through the array of prefixes
 to find the ones matching a particular call, then pick the cheapest from
 the results.

 If you need something faster than linear it gets tricky. It would be
 tempting to preprocess the list to say 5 digits, do a hash lookup on
 those, and then use the process above.

Have you tried sip show peer  and its Useragent field ?

Re: [asterisk-users] Getting Mac Address on connected IP phones

2012-03-15 Thread Arstan Jusupov
I understand you want to choose the easy way but I really think you should not 
be lazy and go phone by phone and write down the Mac address. Of course if 
that's ever possible...

For future ease of administering those phones, like if you want to do 
provisioning, troubleshooting etc etc. Better go make one round and than have 
far more work later on.

This is my honest opinion only. Good luck!

Hello,

Is anyone aware of an AMR-NB codec for Asterisk 10? The old patch
floating around for older versions of Asterisk doesn’t seem to work anymore.


The only patch I have seen is the one for 1.8 which is on sourceforge 
(search for asterisk-amr). I did a quick test and it compiles fine 
against 1.8.10. I have not seen a patch for 10. Iirc the 1.8 patch was 
created by PrivateWave. Perhaps you can ask (hire) them for a 10 version 
of the patch?

[asterisk-users] Caller ID not working in DAHDI 2.6.0

2012-03-15 Thread Chris Gentle
I have a TDM410 with one FXO and one FXS.  I've been running dahdi 2.5.0.2
without any problems.   A couple of weeks ago I upgraded to 2.6.0 and found
that caller ID was no long working for me.  All calls came in with a blank
caller id.  I reverted back to 2.5.0.2 and everything was happy again.  I
tried upgrading to 2.6.0 again this morning and got the same results.  I'm
compiling from source on an Ubuntu 10.04.4 box.  I was very careful  when I
merged my settings from my old 2.5.0.2 setup with the new 2.6.0
configuration files.  I've searched the bugs and read through the Changes
file but didn't see anything obvious.  Should I file a bug?

Hi Chris,

I believe this is fixed in the head of the 2.6 branch. We're
prepping a 2.6.0.1 release now...

[1] http://svnview.digium.com/svn/dahdi?view=revisionrevision=10481

If you could try out the branch and let me know if it *doesn't* work
for you, I would be appreciative.

Thanks,
Shaun

[asterisk-users] External callerid issues using Q931 against Toshiba Strata

2012-03-15 Thread Justin Chevrier
Hi Guys,

I currently have an Asterisk 1.6.2.18 server running a patched (see
below) libpri 1.4.10.2 connected to a Toshiba Strata CTX670. All
external calls come in via the Strata and then are routed to the
Asterisk server over a single PRI link using Q931. This setup is
working and has been working for some time (with various earlier
versions of Asterisk) and with a patch (read hack) to libpri I've
managed to successfully pass through the numerical portion of the
callerid from the Strata.

I would like to upgrade to Asterisk 1.8 or 10 and use libpri 1.4.12
but am having difficulties picking up the callerid from the Strata and
due to significant changes in libpri my patch no longer applies.

Below is a pri intense debug capturing the Strata sending through the
callerid with libpri upgraded to 1.4.12 (running Dahdi 2.4.1). Libpri
obviously receives the callerid information, but I am unsure of how to
actually access it in Asterisk. I expect that if the callerid
information is properly acquired and recognized in libpri it would
simply be accessible in Asterisk in the 'CALLERID(all)' variable, but
it is always empty. Internal calls from an extension on the Strata to
an Asterisk extension show the callerid as expected.

Does anyone have any tips on how to get Asterisk to use the callerid
passed through by the Strata?

Thanks!

Justin

Hey Shaun.  Thanks for the quick reply.  I applied the patch for the bug to
my 2.6.0 and it works fine.  I've made five test calls and the caller ID

[asterisk-users] Reliable SIP Trunk Provider

2012-03-15 Thread Jake Wicke
I'm wondering if any other Asterisk users have a recommendation for a reliable 
SIP Trunk provider that supports Asterisk and offers decent support.

I've worked with Coredial, Broadvox, and Broadvoice and have had some bad 
experiences with each of these providers.

Broadvoice offers low cost service, however I have constant issues with 
Broadvoice blocking my customers due to Asterisk registering too often.  
Support either does not respond to e-mails, hangs up on phone calls, or gives 
me the we don't support Asterisk and we can use your account no problem using 
the SIP phone on our desk line.

Coredial resigned me into a two year agreement after making a change to my SIP 
trunk configuration without my knowledge, then demanded two years of the full 
monthly charge when I tried to cancel over a dispute regarding services that I 
did not order.  Check out coredialhorrorstory.com for the whole story.  While 
the service is decent, the customer service leaves much to be desired.

Broadvox has been the best provider that I have found so far, however I 
initially had a lot of issues with sales quoting a product which could not be 
provisioned and also not being able to deliver service on a timely schedule.  I 
also was given the run around by customer service recently on a simple request 
to add a DID number to an account.

Thanks for your input!

You should probably let the list know what region/country you're in, as 
you'll want to be as close (i.e. low latency) to your trunk provider 
as possible.

Re: [asterisk-users] Rate sheet normalization

2012-03-15 Thread Markus
With like 10 different ratesheets from 10 different providers, of which 
many change their rates every few days, manually doing it in Excel is 
too time consuming...



Am 15.03.2012 07:26, schrieb SamyGo:

could MS-Excel possibly be the easiest way to do that normalization !
just merge two rate sheets put some formulas in there and use it in your
A2billing or XYZ tool  !

  A2Billing doesn't do that. A2Billing in fact has a lot of
shortcomings one of which is this exact issue.

I would suggest running rate sheets against each other for finding
true LCR and then only uploading the rates that are cheaper into the
system. In most cases there are not such high differences but if
there are then this is the only way. I know rate normalization talk
comes up all the time on FreeSwitch Freenode channel and it probably
does on OpenSIPs as well. Check there for some good advice.

How does a2billing do it? It should be pretty easy in an AGI. If
you can
afford a linear lookup per call, just grep through the array of
prefixes
to find the ones matching a particular call, then pick the
cheapest from
the results.

If you need something faster than linear it gets tricky. It would be
tempting to preprocess the list to say 5 digits, do a hash lookup on
those, and then use the process above.

Re: [asterisk-users] External callerid issues using Q931 against Toshiba Strata

2012-03-15 Thread Richard Mudgett
 I currently have an Asterisk 1.6.2.18 server running a patched (see
 below) libpri 1.4.10.2 connected to a Toshiba Strata CTX670. All
 external calls come in via the Strata and then are routed to the
 Asterisk server over a single PRI link using Q931. This setup is
 working and has been working for some time (with various earlier
 versions of Asterisk) and with a patch (read hack) to libpri I've
 managed to successfully pass through the numerical portion of the
 callerid from the Strata.
 
 I would like to upgrade to Asterisk 1.8 or 10 and use libpri 1.4.12
 but am having difficulties picking up the callerid from the Strata
 and
 due to significant changes in libpri my patch no longer applies.
 
 Below is a pri intense debug capturing the Strata sending through the
 callerid with libpri upgraded to 1.4.12 (running Dahdi 2.4.1). Libpri
 obviously receives the callerid information, but I am unsure of how
 to
 actually access it in Asterisk. I expect that if the callerid
 information is properly acquired and recognized in libpri it would
 simply be accessible in Asterisk in the 'CALLERID(all)' variable, but
 it is always empty. Internal calls from an extension on the Strata to
 an Asterisk extension show the callerid as expected.
 
 Does anyone have any tips on how to get Asterisk to use the callerid
 passed through by the Strata?
 
 Thanks!

Re: [asterisk-users] Reliable SIP Trunk Provider

I'm a fan of Vitelity.  They are no-frills, but they work well for my very low

Subject: [asterisk-users] Reliable SIP Trunk Provider

I'm wondering if any other Asterisk users have a recommendation for a reliable 
SIP Trunk provider that supports Asterisk and offers decent support.  
 
I've worked with Coredial, Broadvox, and Broadvoice and have had some bad 
experiences with each of these providers.  
 
Broadvoice offers low cost service, however I have constant issues with 
Broadvoice blocking my customers due to Asterisk registering too often.  
Support either does not respond to e-mails, hangs up on phone calls, or gives 
me the we don't support Asterisk and we can use your account no problem using 
the SIP phone on our desk line.  
 
Coredial resigned me into a two year agreement after making a change to my SIP 
trunk configuration without my knowledge, then demanded two years of the full 
monthly charge when I tried to cancel over a dispute regarding services that I 
did not order.  Check out coredialhorrorstory.com for the whole story.  While 
the service is decent, the customer service leaves much to be desired.
 
Broadvox has been the best provider that I have found so far, however I 
initially had a lot of issues with sales quoting a product which could not be 
provisioned and also not being able to deliver service on a timely schedule.  I 
also was given the run around by customer service recently on a simple request 
to add a DID number to an account.
 
Thanks for your input!

 You should probably let the list know what region/country you're in, as
 you'll want to be as close (i.e. low latency) to your trunk provider as
 possible.


Also the amount of traffic and number of DIDs, since some of us serve
specific size ranges.

I'm going to assume that you're in the US, since those 3 providers are all
based here.

I can highly recommend XO Communications. http://www.xo.com/

We currently have 35 SIP trunks with them and will be adding more.  Our
corp office is on a DS3 SIP trunk with 500 DID's and our stores are on a
T1 SIP trunk with 100 DID's.

They have several levels of support.  We use their upper level support
called SNA (I forget what it stands for), which gives us direct access to
their upper level engineers when needed.  Their front line support people
that I deal with are very good and may be VoIP engineers themselves.

[asterisk-users] disable dahdi pri

Hello,

is there a way to disable a span for maintenance purpose (i.e. send yellow 
alarm) ?

What would be the correct ioctl definition ? DAHDI_MAINT seems not to be the 
right
candidate. Would DAHDI_SHUTDOWN send an alarm ?

Thanks

This could be a good feature to add to the dahdi_maint utility.

 What would be the correct ioctl definition ? DAHDI_MAINT seems not to be the 
 right
 candidate.
You could add an additional context in the DAHDI_MAINT ioctl handler of your
base card to set/unset the yellow alarm bit in the framer. For an example, see
the Yellow Alarm handler in t4_check_alarms() and the DAHDI_MAINT ioctl handler
in t4_maint() in drivers/dahdi/wct4xxp/base.c

 Would DAHDI_SHUTDOWN send an alarm ?
No. This will shutdown the entire card.

 +1 for Vitelity , I like them for recognizing the fact that some people
 actually prefer to run pure Asterisk (no GUI) .

 and
 transfer to park extension. We're using polycom soundpoint IP 650.
 when the
 park button is hit the response is i'm sorry not an extension at

Please use a newer version of Asterisk.  A lot of parking issues have
been fixed since that version.

Re: [asterisk-users] how to show used wrong password

 all works as expected only there is 1 extension that is trying to register
 with a wrong password causing fail2ban to block the IP address, normally
 that is ok behaviour but i have several extensions on that IP address.



First of all, white list the IP in fail2ban and you won't accidentally ban
the whole office.  This can be done by following this guide:
http://www.fail2ban.org/wiki/index.php/Whitelist

Second, this is kind of outside the box thinking, so it may not work at
all, but try setting the NAT on that peer to no, and then tcpdump the
incoming registration attempts and see if you can see the internal private
IP address of the packet.  If there's a SIP helper on the far end, this may
not help.  Possibly, remove the secret= line from that peer in sip.conf and
see if it successfully registers.  Again, with the right nat= setting, you
may be able to tcpdump the communication with that peer and get the private
IP address so that you can then attempt narrow it down.  This is not a long
term solution, obviously, as it would create a gaping security hole, but
it's worth a shot.

 Advisory Contact   Matt Jordan mjordan AT digium DOT com   
 CVE Name   

Description  An attacker can cause Asterisk to crash in one of two ways:  
  
 1. A dialplan uses the Milliwatt application with 'o'
 option   
  
 2. The internal_timing opion in asterisk.conf is off 
  
 3. The attacker sends a large audio packet. The number of
 samples in the audio packet determines the number of 
 internal data samples that are copied into the buffer. This  
 overruns the buffer, potentially causing a crash.
  
 OR   
  
 1. A diaplan uses the Milliwatt application with the 'o' 
 option   
  
 2. The attacker negotiates a media format with a sampling
 rate greater than 32kHz. The application will attempt to 
 generate an audio packet using the sample rate of the
 negotiated format, where the sample rate will require a  
 number of data points greater then the size of the buffer.   
 Again, the the application copies a number of internal data  
 samples into the buffer that are greater then the size of
 the buffer, potentially causing a crash. 
  
 Note that the latter attack vector is only possible in   
 Asterisk 10, as it supports codecs with a sample rate
 greater then 32kHz.

[asterisk-users] Asterisk 1.4.44, 1.6.2.23, 1.8.10.1, 10.2.1 Now Available (Security Releases)

2012-03-15 Thread Asterisk Development Team
The Asterisk Development Team has announced security releases for Asterisk 1.4,
1.6.2, 1.8, and 10. The available security releases are released as versions
1.4.44, 1.6.2.23, 1.8.10.1, and 10.2.1.

These releases are available for immediate download at
http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/releases

The release of Asterisk 1.4.44 and 1.6.2.23 resolve an issue wherein 
app_milliwatt
can potentially overrun a buffer on the stack, causing Asterisk to crash.  This
does not have the potential for remote code execution.

The release of Asterisk 1.8.10.1 and 10.2.1 resolve two issues.  First, they
resolve the issue in app_milliwatt, wherein a buffer can potentially be overrun
on the stack, but no remote code execution is possible.  Second, they resolve
an issue in HTTP AMI where digest authentication information can be used to
overrun a buffer on the stack, allowing for code injection and execution.

These issues and their resolution are described in the security advisory.

For more information about the details of these vulnerabilities, please read the
security advisories AST-2012-002 and AST-2012-003, which were released at the 
same
time as this announcement.

For a full list of changes in the current releases, please see the ChangeLogs:

Re: [asterisk-users] Rate sheet normalization

2012-03-15 Thread Ast Coder
I would be more interested in a system where quality routes are tested with
different providers because rate really doesn't matter if a call can't be
placed or if a destination is a fake one. We have seen many fake
destinations with top tier providers but they had the best rates so the
strategy to pick them first really didn't work.

So, maybe a subscription service where a dialler system continuously tests
routes with a list of 10 providers so that it's established which routes
actually work and then allow that data to be downloaded for usage.

Our system just rolls over until it finds a carrier that will take it. Up to 30 
different routes are supported, and rollover is pretty instantaneous in most 
cases.

I think that it may not be humanly possible and also not possible to have a
separate automated setup to ring destinations and prioritize according to
Quality or Least-rates. BUT I am sure that real-time call success rate(or
ASR) via multiple providers and sorting providers accordingly for
particular destinations is possible or maybe available. Provided a good
piece of code is written which analyses the call status / quality and then
picks favourite carrier/provider for any destination. !!
Not sure if anyone can understand it completely ;)
I am thinking in terms of DynamicRouting or LCR modules from Kamailio or
OpenSIPS.

How about a central coop that manages the “normalized” rate sheet and 
distributes it with “unknown” call quality metrics for each route. Coop members 
report call quality for all calls/routes so the call quality metrics can be 
updated in the rate sheet and distributed to members.

Good Idea but that means all the members of the coop use the same vendors
and it may not be suitable for servers having a bad network with a premium
quality provider and thus mark it as bad, whereas others are marking it as
Good. !!

 ** **

 I think that it may not be humanly possible and also not possible to have
 a separate automated setup to ring destinations and prioritize according to
 Quality or Least-rates. BUT I am sure that real-time call success rate(or
 ASR) via multiple providers and sorting providers accordingly for
 particular destinations is possible or maybe available. Provided a good
 piece of code is written which analyses the call status / quality and then
 picks favourite carrier/provider for any destination. !! 

 Not sure if anyone can understand it completely ;)

 I am thinking in terms of DynamicRouting or LCR modules from Kamailio or
 OpenSIPS.

 strategy to pick them first really didn't work.

 So, maybe a subscription service where a dialler system continuously tests
 routes with a list of 10 providers so that it's established which routes
 actually work and then allow that data to be downloaded for usage.

 Is it possible to get samples?  I'd be interested in looking into
 developing a script that can handle this problem generically, and
 presumably you're available to alpha- and beta-test in any case :)

 Most definitely! I'll get in touch off-list. :)

Re: [asterisk-users] Rate sheet normalization

2012-03-15 Thread SamyGo
So the best fit is to create a piece of code which mixes providers and
destinations. 1- Sort those with at first rate and then as  time passes
by(utilization) it rearranges the carriers according to quality metrics or
economical rates or success ratios. Like an AI system which enhances itself
with passage of time.

 Good Idea but that means all the members of the coop use the same vendors
 and it may not be suitable for servers having a bad network with a premium
 quality provider and thus mark it as bad, whereas others are marking it as
 Good. !!

 How about a central coop that manages the “normalized” rate sheet and
 distributes it with “unknown” call quality metrics for each route. Coop
 members report call quality for all calls/routes so the call quality
 metrics can be updated in the rate sheet and distributed to members.
