I'm still new to Asterisk (very new in fact) built up a AsteriskNOW box just to get something going. My simple test system has just 3 Cisco phones a 7905, 7940 7960. - Everything's running SIP. The 3 phones can call each other fine. - Can even leave (and retreive) voicemail messages. - No problems. My problem is with MOH (Music On Hold). - The 7940/7960 are somewhat okay, but the 7905 is another story. When a is call from a 7940/7960 is placed on 'hold' (by the calling party), MOH starts up on the 7940/7960, plays for about a second or two, then drops out for about a second or so, then continues. - After that, it continues to play okay. But when a call from the 7905 is placed on 'hold' (by the calling party), MOH starts up on the 7905, plays for a second or two, drops out for a sec, starts again for a sec or so, drops out, starts back up, drops out, etc., etc., etc Just up and down. - Kinda' like a Yo-Yo. Also - When the call from the 7905 is placed on hold, I see the following warning at the Asterisk CLI: [Jun 29 22:18:28] NOTICE[3376]: rtp.c783 process_rfc3389: Comfort noise support incomplete in Asterisk (RFC 3389). Please turn off on client if possible. Client IP: 10.0.0.110 I don't see this warning when the 7940/7960 is playing MOH. I'm using basic default settings for just about everything. - Could this be with the RTP config? - The 7905 Audio settings? Anybody have a clue? Thanks in advance.

When you use the Park button, on some phones you have to hit More to get it. Then when you park it, it calls back and tells you the extension...so you have to hang up then pick up again.

You'll need Zaptel 1.2.13 to make it go. It does take quite a bit of CPU though - perhaps 70% more compared to MG2-trunk for the same number of taps from my rough measurements.

[asterisk-users] Transfer - announce - ring
I am running some Polycom phones and have Auto Answer setup(*51 initiates that when you call an extension) With an attended transfer you can take a call, hit transfer, *51extension, announce the call and if the person wants it, complete the transfer, the call is now on speaker at the end. This can surprise people because all of a sudden the call is right there. I know that the attended transfer basically puts the first call on hold, makes another call, then bridges them together with the 2nd push of the transfer button, but is there anyway to have it hang up the speaker part and then _ring_ at the destination? Basically what would happen if transferred the call normally without sending the feature to tell the Polycom to auto answer, but at the same time giving them the ability to announce it over speaker, all in one fluid motion? I know you could place the call on hold, Intercom over then do a blind transfer but like all of us here, we have to deal with people who don't like to push buttons. J I told our people to use Park and then just intercom and the destination can pick it up at their leisure but I thought I'd raise the question. That's what this feature is for after all! So to recap as it works now: Call comes in, Transfer, *51exten, destination Polycom auto answers, Transfer at source and the call is on speaker Is it possible to: Call comes in, Transfer, announce to destination via Auto Answer, then complete the transfer but have it ring at the destination? All using the built in Polycom transfer function?

RE: [asterisk-users] Fax through Sangoma A102
Incoming faxes, the Sangoma will detect the tones and disable echo cancel. To send outbound, you will have to add another trunk group, of one or more channels and disable echo cancellation and use that to dial out. Example (/etc/asterisk/zapata.conf) blah blah echocancel=yes blah blah group = 1 channel =1-20 blah blah echo cancel=no group = 2 channel=22-23 So you would use for faxing specifically Zap/g2/number and it will use channel 22 or 23 but with echo turned off.

When trying to send outbound faxes, they all get broken... I do believe it may be related with Echo Cancel enabled on my Zapata.conf, any ways i've set also fax detect for inbound and outbound on zapata, but that stills diferent from the receiving model as it relies on NVfaxdetect to detect. After many trials, i setup an architecture with another Server Running Hylafax and IAXmodem registring on my * Box and i just get out of troubles. It's perfect sending and receiving faxes with notifications and everything else, Hylafax + IAXmodem and Asterisk are working like a charm. I must say that we don't send too many faxes per day, but until now no problems!

RE: [asterisk-users] Detect IP path before calling
If you send the SIP call to the remote end which is no longer available (unreachable, etc) and have another Dial statement, it will automatically roll over. I would think this would be just as fast, if not faster, than a script updating a db value you check before each call.

PaulH Doesn't seem to have effect. Probably I should state the problem more clearly. Ideally, Asterisk should not attempt SIP if there's no way to establish a SIP call. This may include lack of IP connection (ping timeout, for example), or no SIP listener on remote side (this would be difficult because Asterisk can only use UDP). My environment does not require remote end point to register, so consulting the registry is not an option. (This is perhaps what ChanIsAvail does.) Any suggestions?

[asterisk-users] RE: yet another faxing issue (outbound only, via ATA)
Follow up: I used my Cisco 3660 that's a hop away and connected to a different PRI provider. Faxes work _fine_ From the ATA box I faxed a DID that would come back into the Zap enabled Asterisk server, then talks BACK to the server that the ATA box is regstered via IAX2 (or SIP, I found they both worked) and was able to receive the fax fine (incoming fax went to email) FAILURE FAX: Here is the path: ATA - SIP - * - IAX2 (or SIP) - * with Zap - send call out via Zap channel SUCCESS FAX: ATA - SIP - * - IAX2 (or SIP) - * with Zap - SIP to 3660 then out via PRI works every time! I tried G3 and ECM mode. ECM was flakey work even through the 3660 but G3 worked everytime. I have set the fax machine to G3 for the time being since it works each time. Each outbound call actually initiates a call to a DID that terminates into my * with the Zap card, then talks via IAX2 again back to the original server. No problems there. So I know that faxing other fax machines fails so it's not necessarily that there is some weird loop calling out and coming back in the same Zap card is there? Recap hardware: Sangoma A101 Echo cancel: yes (and zap show channel confirms it's enabled) I would think if echo cancel was the problem incoming faxes would fail as well? So...wtf?! I am surprised the 3660 is working outbound where the Sangoma is not, since it can receive fine. The 3660 has a HDV card in it with DSPs to do the processing but the load on the Asterisk servers barely goes above 0.00. So to recap: ATA works fine sending and my Asterisk servers are ok Sending the outbound call via SIP to my 3660 a hop away (DS3) to be routed out the PSTN (which then comes back to my Asterisk with the Sangoma card) works fine! Sending the outbound fax via the Zap channels on the Asterisk server (the same one that talks to the 3660 via SIP that works) FAILS Receiving faxes from anywhere into the Sangoma which talks to my 2nd asterisk server works fine as well!

However, when box b sends via IAX2 or SIP to box a, the Sangoma no longer knows that it is a fax transmission and is continuing echo cancellation.

[asterisk-users] Dial groups, groups of phones, multiple line keys
I have 4 Polycom phones with multiple line keys so multiple incoming calls work fine The way I would like the incoming call flow to work is as follows: 1) 2 groups consisting of 2 phones each 2) Incoming call rings the first group, if no answer, the 2nd group is rung 3) However if the first 2 are on a call or busy, it will immediately ring the 2nd group 4) If one of the first group is in use, the available phone is rung, if no answer, roll over to group 2 5) If group 2 one phone is busy, ring the other one only 6) Finally drop into voicemail if no answer at all Suggestions on how to do that yet still keep the multiple line keys? Would this be a good use of CheckGroup and Set(GROUP())? I could use astdb but I wanted to stay away from persistent variables. I looked into ChanIsAvail but I don't think that is what I want. So I guess what I am looking for is there a way to find out if a device is using ANY channel, because I can check that (say CheckIfPhoneInUse(SIP/phone1)) and set dynamic variable values based on that, then decide what phones to ring based on that.

[asterisk-users] question about IF
I am having a problem getting the following logic to work, in a macro. Basically, if the caller ID matches, set the outbond trunk to a Zap channel, otherwise use a SIP provider. exten = s,n,Set(TRUNK=${IF($[${CALLERIDNUM} = 1234567890]?Zap/g1:SIP/LDPROVIDER)}) ; use PRI instead of SIP That works. The TRUNK variable is set properly. But the SIP LD provider requires a prepended code, so I say if the TRUNK var is the SIP/LDPROVIDER set another variable called PREPEND_CODE to the passed argument, otherwise use nothing if its the Zap channel since I will just be sending the digits as is. exten = s,n,Set(PREPEND_CODE=${IF($[ ${TRUNK} = SIP/LDPROVIDER]?${ARG2}:)}) However this always sets the PREPEND_CODE variable even if TRUNK is set to Zap/g1. If I use SIP/LDPROVIDER or SIP/LDPROVIDER or even ${TRUNK:} = SIP (not sure if thats even valid but I tried it) it still sets the variable. I also tried using a space after the : but still doesnt work. Does IF only match digits??? Asterisk ver 1.2.12.1 I must be doing something wrong but am not sure what it isany ideas? I have a feeling I missed up because I was looking at this at 2am and working on it via a cell phone SSH connection so I must be missing something obvious.

[asterisk-users] sip.conf for talking to other Asterisk machines
Just curious how most of you are defining SIP peers in sip.conf for Asterisk boxes talking to each other. Are most of you just making a type=friend connection and a single context or are you separating them out to in/out definitions and contexts? In other words Where voicegw1 is the Asterisk box with the TDM cards for talking to the PSTN, it will receive calls from the PSTN and forward to the appropriate Asterisk box as well as receive calls from the other Asterisk boxes to forward out to the PSTN. Do you on the Asterisk box that contains all the SIP phones define (ie the client to the PSTN Asterisk box and voicegw1 is the one with the PSTN connection) [voicegw1-in] type=user username=virtualpbx1-in secret=1234 host=192.168.1.99 context=voicegw1-in canreinvite=no nat=no qualify=yes allow=all [voicegw1-out] type=peer username=virtualpbx1-out secret=1234 host=192.168.1.99 context=voicegw1-out canreinvite=no nat=no qualify=yes allow=all or [voicegw1] Type=friend Blah Context=voicegw1 And use a single context for inbound/outbound routing? The same would apply to the PSTN Asterisk server.

[asterisk-users] Call parking with Polycom's - works but MOH stops in one scenario
501s, 601s running 1.6.5 Asterisk 1.2.10 NAT Logs at the bottom of the email Using AMP or FreePBX for the config files Heres whats happening: Call comes in Answer the call On the Polycom Hit Transfer (person calling in hears MOH just fine) Enter park extension (my case 190) Listen to the digits being read back, ie 191 Now heres where it gets odd 1) If I wait after the digits are read back MOH starts on the Polycom At this point if I hit Transfer (complete the attended transfer obviously) to send the call to the park, MOH stops on the phone calling in. However parking continues to work, including ring backso other than the MOH stopping (which I assume has to do something with Asterisk not thinking the phone is on hold anymore?) the park feature works fine. Basically if I wait too long it never initiates the MOH again to the parked call however - is this because Asterisk thinks its now on a real extension hence no MOH (which may be why it plays back MOH if I transfer the call to the park extension in the first place) The call DOES show up in show parkedcalls though so Asterisk obviously knows it is parked. 2) Now if I hit Transfer quickly after the digits are read back (basically before it finishes the last digit but enough for me to know what it is), MOH continues on the person who is parked (which is the behavior I want) Park pickup/ringback works fine.and the logs show this 3) Blind transfer MOH always works but not what I want since the person who put it on Park now doesnt know what extension to pick it up I also see in the logs after the final transfer -- Incoming call: Got SIP response 500 Internal Server Error back from 192.168.1.100 No matter if I hit Transfer the 2nd time quickly or wait for MOH to start On a side note, anyone ever get the Polycom call-park and Park softkey feature to work?

However parking continues to work, including ring backso other than the MOH stopping (which I assume has to do something with Asterisk not thinking the phone is on hold anymore?) the park feature works fine. Basically if I wait too long it never initiates the MOH again to the parked call however - is this because Asterisk thinks its now on a real extension hence no MOH (which may be why it plays back MOH if I transfer the call to the park extension in the first place) The call DOES show up in show parkedcalls though so Asterisk obviously knows it is parked. 2) Now if I hit Transfer quickly after the digits are read back (basically before it finishes the last digit but enough for me to know what it is), MOH continues on the person who is parked (which is the behavior I want) Park pickup/ringback works fine.and the logs show this 3) Blind transfer MOH always works but not what I want since the person who put it on Park now doesnt know what extension to pick it up I also see in the logs after the final transfer -- Incoming call: Got SIP response 500 Internal Server Error back from 192.168.1.100 No matter if I hit Transfer the 2nd time quickly or wait for MOH to start On a side note, anyone ever get the Polycom call-park and Park softkey feature to work?

Not only that but Asterisk and Digium has enabled ALL of us to market and produce and support a product for businesses that would have no other alternative but to spend even more money on the big boys or get smaller less featured phone systems without the benefits of VOIP. We all succeed in this scenario and the resources Digium has put into this product has helped us just as much (if not more) than it has helped them.

RE: [asterisk-users] Server Optimization and Load Balancing
Keep us posted!

What is the load on the server?

Any help is greatly appreciated. Over the last few months, our call center has grown considerably and we're now experiencing choppy calls and dropped calls under full capacity. We have around a 60/40 outgoing to incoming ratio At the moment, we've got the following configuration: Asterisk SVN-trunk-r7230 All calls recorded to disk External mysql server for CDR + IVR operations Dual Xeon 2.8 4GB Ram (Dell) Digium TE210P 2 x PRI lines 72 Ploycom 301P SIP phones using ulaw codec We have a second identical server ready to offset some of the load, but we're not sure how to balance the sip phones and configuration files between the two servers. If we balance the sip registrations between the two servers, then there's the issues of both servers having to handle one call via IAX in some situations. What kind of experiences, problems and solutions have y'all had when adding servers to your center? Should we try to have incoming on one server and outgoing on the other? Should we have both servers capable of handling all the IVR operations, so the other server doesn't have to? Should we try to have an identical configuration between both servers and load balance? What kind of general optimizations should we look at to improve network / server performance? Is there a way to easily register each phone with all asterisk servers, and have the phone choose a random server to dial, and then be available as a SIP to each server if it needs to contact it? Is it a bad idea to register all phones with each server instead of distributing registration? -Here's some of the things we're got planned in the next few days: -Make sure we have all audio files in all codec formats to reduce the need for transcoding in IVR -Convert all music on hold from mp3 to native codec formats -Reduce database operations from within extensions.conf -Upgrade switches on each set of desks to midrange enterprise 100MB switches with gigabit uplinks, from SOHO netgear 100MB switches Thanks, /mitch /fidelity reserves ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

I have 2 ways of making outbound calls from all of the boxes, and I did the following via 1.2.9.1 and 1.2.4 1) Send the outbound call to the Cisco and send out via the PRI (sip phone ulaw to Cisco ulaw out the PRI) 2) Dial long distance to a provider using g729 (Polycom to Asterisk ulaw, Asterisk transcoding to g729 to provider) If I call from a sip phone OUT to my cell via the long distance provider I get no choppiness. I am not able to get inbound calls from the provider so I can only test one way. So I then switched talking to my Cisco via g729 (letting asterisk transcode ulaw to g729 and also g729 all the way through) and voice is fine but MOH is still choppy. So it must be something with the Cisco maybe? IOS version is Cisco IOS Software, 3600 Software (C3660-IS-M), Version 12.3(14)T6, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2) I have setup for the codecs: voice class codec 1 codec preference 1 g711ulaw codec preference 2 g729r8 incoming dial-peer: dial-peer voice 1 pots description Match all incoming calls, set DID incoming called-number .T direct-inward-dial forward-digits extra dial-peer voice 16 voip description to the asterisk server destination-pattern phone# voice-class codec 1 session protocol sipv2 session target ipv4:ip dtmf-relay sip-notify rtp-nte and outbound: dial-peer voice 1 pots description Outbound via PRI destination-pattern .T port 1/0:23 forward-digits all Could this have something to do with the Cisco suppressing the stream using silence suppression...I read somewhere that Asterisk relies on Sip packets for MOH???

[asterisk-users] Tadiran Coral IP PBX to Asterisk
Goal to get the CoralIP PBX long distance savings by sending it to Asterisk (which then talks via SIP to other long distance voip providers) The Coral IP supports MGCP and so does Asterisk. Has anyone tried sending calls from the Coral PBX to Asterisk via MGCP? I will be playing around with that this weekend but thought Id ask. The other way I was thinking was doing a back to back PRI, utilizing a Digium TE110P. If I understand that process correctly, using back to back PRI cards (one in the Tadiran and one in the Asterisk server) we can basically open a digital trunk to send (and accept) the calls. Any suggestions on integrating a non SIP (but VOIP) style PBX to Asterisk other than what I outlined above?

I have a TDM400P card with two FXS and two FXO modules which I had set up and configured so that it was working beautifully. The only problem was that occasionally it would get itself into a state where outgoing calls would simply be met with a very loud static. A reboot would fix this issue and everything would work fine for a while. Recently however, incoming calls have also stopped working at all. Asterisk would seemingly pick up the line only to immediately hangup. Then the internal extension will ring twice and also hang up. In trying to trace down these issues I have gone back to a bare bones configuration. zapata.conf: [channels] usecallerid=no hidecallerid=no callwaiting=no threewaycalling=no transfer=no echocancel=no echotraining=no immediate=no usedistinctiveringdetection=no ; define channels context=internal signalling=fxo_ks channel = 1 ; define channels context=incoming signalling=fxs_ks channel = 3 --- extensions.conf: [incoming] ;exten = s, 1, Answer() ;exten = s, 2, Playback(hello-world) exten = s,1, Dial(Zap/1) Neither of these configurations will currently work properly. The commented out Playback setup answers, sais it is playing back, but you don't hear anything. The Dial(zap/1) will ring the extension but as soon as you pick it up, asterisk hangs up.
