Subject: [asterisk-users] MOH question w/Cisco 79xx phones

Hi Everyone

Got a newbie type question regarding MOH  Cisco phones.

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.

Gary Guthary

[asterisk-users] forwarding loop not detected

2007-03-30 Thread Bill Gibbs
Asterisk 1.2.16

I have an extension 102 with a Polycom 430

 

I am trying to protect against forwarding loops

 

If I set the phone to forward the line to itself, extension 102 I get
the following

 

-- Got SIP response 302 Moved Temporarily back from 206.83.240.18

-- Now forwarding Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2 to
'Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (thanks to SIP/exten-mycontext-102-094c2c08)

-- Executing Dial(Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2,
SIP/exten-mycontext-102) in new stack

-- Called exten-mycontext-102

-- Got SIP response 302 Moved Temporarily back from 206.83.240.18

-- Now forwarding Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2 to

-- Executing Dial(Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],2,
SIP/exten-mycontext-102) in new stack

-- Called exten-mycontext-102

 

Looping for a long time then the next entry in the dial plan kicks in
(Voicemail) after a ton of those

 

Dialplan:

exten = 102,1,Dial(SIP/exten-mycontext-102)

exten = 102,n,Voicemail([EMAIL PROTECTED])

 

Forwarding to other extensions and outside numbers works fine, just not
to itself.

 

How can I protect against such loops?

[asterisk-users] PROGRESS code

2007-03-20 Thread Bill Gibbs
I have a PRI switch type national

Asterisk 1.2.16

Zaptel 1.2.15

 

If I call an invalid number I get

 

*   PROGRESS with cause code 28 received

 

Asterisk continues to attempt to connect the call until the timeout is
reached and I hear ringing.

 

I want to capture the progress code, which I thought was in HANGUPCAUSE
but when I NoOp that variable it's always 16 when I dial an invalid
number...not 28

 

Also, I don't see how to immediately indicate the number is invalid,
without waiting for the channel to automatically hang up.

 

Is that just the way it works...I gotta wait?

 

Why is HANGUPCAUSE 16 but I get Progress cause code 28?  28 is clearly
correct because 11 is an invalid number format.

 

exten = _.,1,Dial(Zap/g1/${EXTEN})

exten = _.,n,NoOp(Dial Status is ${DIALSTATUS})

exten = _.,n,NoOp(Hang Up Clause is ${HANGUPCAUSE})

exten = _.,n,Congestion

RE: [asterisk-users] Polycom call parking feature and Asterisk callparking

Using the Park button actually requires more work than just doing an attended

Anyway, use the ParkAndAnnounceFunction, here's an example

Hi:

I want to make parking calls easier for my hard-working users. Is there
a way to make the Polycom call park feature work with Asterisk?

In case it just works out of the box, I haven't tried it yet; but the
call park feature isn't enabled on the Polycom phones by default.

2007-03-10 Thread Bill Gibbs
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.

Callpark apparently is a valid extension!

Does it? How does it work exactly?

What I would expect:

Press the Park button; hear the announcement; hang up

The way it works now:

Press the Transfer button; dial 700; press Send; hear the announcement;
press Transfer; hang up

 Anyway, use the ParkAndAnnounceFunction, here's an example
 
 exten =

callpark,n,ParkAndAnnounce(pbx-transfer:PARKED|10|SIP/${DIALEDPEERNUMBER

Is callpark a valid extension?

Subject: [asterisk-users] Sender phone ringing while recipient talking

I've had asterisk running for about a month now between our PBX and our 
T1, and everything seems fine but for one simple nit-pick: When a call 
to the outside workd is made, and if the recipient picks up while a the 
sender's phone is still relaying the ring, the sender won't be heard 
until after the ring stops. This often translates a simple hello? into

a lo? or even *long pause* hello, is anyone there?

Is there a way to immediately stop the ring when a pickup is detected?

Thanks,

All devices are behind NAT

Registration expirations between 30secs to 2 minutes to help keep NAT

Should I extend the registration expiration to maybe 5 minutes?  Will
that keep the NAT holes on the remote router open long enough to receive

RE: [asterisk-users] 1.4 - SLA

2007-03-06 Thread Bill Gibbs
I think it has something to do with hints...I can't seem to subscribe to
anything now with 1.4 vs 1.2, even with a normal non SLA setup.

My phone/config that works with 1.2, so I know hints work with the phone
and firmware and with NAT at least on 1.2.

I did a fresh 1.4 install (and I did a make samples so I had something
to work off of)

sip show subscriptions shows 0 active

show hints:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] : SIP/2404366402State:Idle

If I run the default demo app, show hints still shows Idle.

My Buddies key in the Polycom, which is watching the proper sip hint
(works in 1.2) shows the extension to be Offline.

If you see no subscriptions, then the phones will not dispaly the state

In regards to still allowing you to dial when all lines are busy, do you

have your phones set up to automatically dial when you go off-hook?  In 
this SLA setup, you should not allow any

I just started playing with it this morning however...still playing

One odd thing, I keep seeing some weirdness:

(domain x.x.x.x)
And also Looking for 103

Yet I have no idea where those values are coming from!

I am running 1.6.7.

Here is a snippet of the phone config from one of the phones:
reg reg.1.displayName=Line 1 reg.1.address=station2_line1
reg.1.label=Line 1 reg.1.type=shared
reg.1.thirdPartyName=2404366402-2 reg.1.auth.userId=2404366402-2

reg.1.server.2.transport=DNSnaptr reg.1.server.1.expires=60
reg.1.server.1.register=1

I noticed that I had to set the reg.x.address field to the
stationX_lineX value or the phone wouldn't fill in the icon
image...but it would accept cals.  Still not completely clear but I am
making progress!

 Russell, I don't have any specifics at this time.  I need to dig a
 little further.  I'm thinking the autocontext is what is giving me
 fits.  I can receive calls and place calls, but the hint status is not
 working.  It currently registers as a hint showing not in use.  It
 does not show in use.

If you aren't seeing any lights change on the phones when calls are 
going on, check sip show subscriptions at the CLI.  If the phones have

not properly subscribed to the right extensions, you won't see anything.

 I ended up using some of the config from the bottom of the sla.txt
 file.  The sample file may be missing the template section.  The
 sample config does not match the config in the sla.txt.  I couldn't
 get the sample config to work at all.  Again, hopefully over the
 weekend I'll be able to get more information.

You are correct.  The sample configuration is missing the template.  I 
will add it now.  However, I just made the tarballs for 1.4.1, so this 
config fix didn't make it in.

 Using the config in the sample file, the hint status was working.  I
 could see the line ringing, but I could not answer the lines or place
 calls.  Using the config from the sla.txt file, I could place calls
 and receive calls, but the hints never showed any activity, just
 always not in use.

As I noted earlier, check your sip show subscriptions to make sure the

phones are subscribed to the right thing.

Another helpful thing that you can use for debugging is to look at the 
output of sla show stations.  You can see the state of each line 
appearance on each station.  This should correspond with what you see on

the phone  ... unless there is a problem, of course.

 If possible, could you provide the config that you've used for
 testing?  I'm testing using Polycom phones to try to keep things
 simple.  I'm assuming you are using a Polycom.

I have been testing with a variety of different phones.  I have not 
tested all of the Polycom models, yet.  This is one of the things we're 
going to have to work through.  I would like to document issues with 
specific phones in sla.txt as we come across them.

The configuration I'm using for testing looks just like the stuff in 
configs/sla.conf.sample.  Essentially, it is:


[line1]
type=trunk
device=Zap/3
autocontext=line1

[line2]
type=trunk
device=Zap/4
autocontext=line2

[station](!)
type=station
autocontext=sla_stations
trunk=line1
trunk=line2

[station1] (station)
device=SIP/station1

[station2](station)
device=SIP/station2

[station3](station)
device=SIP/station3


Thanks for providing some feedback on this.  You are the first one to 
say anything about it.  :)  I am very eager to get everything working 
well so that everyone is happy.  Just please be patient as I work 
through the initial flood of reports since it is just now getting out in

the field.

Subject: RE: [asterisk-users] 1.4 - SLA

I have been using 2 Polycom 430s so far.  I can get incoming calls just
fine (both phones ring on line 1).  However it doesn't appear to seize
the line, so if a call is on the one phone, I can still pick up line 1
on the other and dial - and it's reflected in the connected call.  I
assume that's related to the hint/subscription issue Lacy indicated as
well.  sip show subscriptions shows nothing.

I just started playing with it this morning however...still playing
around w/ the configs.

One odd thing, I keep seeing some weirdness:
[Mar  5 13:10:52] VERBOSE[9381] logger.c: Looking for 105 in default
(domain x.x.x.x)
And also Looking for 103

Yet I have no idea where those values are coming from!

I am running 1.6.7.

Here is a snippet of the phone config from one of the phones:
reg reg.1.displayName=Line 1 reg.1.address=station2_line1
reg.1.label=Line 1 reg.1.type=shared
reg.1.thirdPartyName=2404366402-2 reg.1.auth.userId=2404366402-2
reg.1.auth.password=1234 reg.1.server.1.address=
reg.1.server.1.port= reg.1.server.1.transport=DNSnaptr
reg.1.server.2.transport=DNSnaptr reg.1.server.1.expires=60
reg.1.server.1.register=1

I noticed that I had to set the reg.x.address field to the
stationX_lineX value or the phone wouldn't fill in the icon
image...but it would accept cals.  Still not completely clear but I am
making progress!

If you aren't seeing any lights change on the phones when calls are 
going on, check sip show subscriptions at the CLI.  If the phones have

not properly subscribed to the right extensions, you won't see anything.

 I ended up using some of the config from the bottom of the sla.txt

 sample config does not match the config in the sla.txt.  I couldn't
 get the sample config to work at all.  Again, hopefully over the

You are correct.  The sample configuration is missing the template.  I 
will add it now.  However, I just made the tarballs for 1.4.1, so this 
config fix didn't make it in.

 Using the config in the sample file, the hint status was working.  I
 could see the line ringing, but I could not answer the lines or place
 calls.  Using the config from the sla.txt file, I could place calls
 and receive calls, but the hints never showed any activity, just
 always not in use.

As I noted earlier, check your sip show subscriptions to make sure the

phones are subscribed to the right thing.

Another helpful thing that you can use for debugging is to look at the 
output of sla show stations

RE: [asterisk-users] Fax with T.38

2007-02-24 Thread Bill Gibbs
I am waiting for the powers that be to get a dual port PRI card at this time.

I think a dial-peer will only need to look similar to this on the Cisco:

dial-peer voice 10 voip
 destination-pattern WHATEVER
 session protocol sipv2
 session target ipv4:openpbx ip
 dtmf-relay sip-notify rtp-nte
 fax protocol t38 ls-redundancy 0 hs-redundancy 0 fallback cisco


Since that's basically what you need to do voice, all this adds is the T38 line.

Hi Bill,

I'm in exactly the same boat with T.38 and OpenPBX.  I too think the Cisco-T.38 
Gateway is the most practical at this moment.  Where are you on testing this 
and can you share the 3660 config?  In researching the CIsco/voice, there is a 
TON of hardware options you need, or so it seems.

 Ray,
 
 I have been playing with OpenPBX.  My core servers are Asterisk so I was 
 playing around with their T38Gateway application.  Long story short - I can 
 get the ATA (behind NAT) to talk T38 to the rxfax app on an OpenPBX server 
 but the gateway feature of that product is still under development so I was 
 sending IAX calls to it and it would try to talk T38 to my ATA (behind NAT or 
 public IP) and eventually the call would fail.  Clearly T38 was working 
 though, debug output was full of T38 talk.  However the wiki clearly states 
 it's experimental still.
 
 I personally have decided to go with a 2nd PRI port to a 3660 I have on hand 
 that will do T38 SIP.  I am going to set that up to talk to * 1.4.0 and do 
 T38 pass through.  I to will be doing NAT for the ATAs so...hopefully it will 
 work.  We shall see.
 
 So my call flow will be
 
 PRI - Asterisk 1.2.x
 Out the 2nd PRI to the 3660
 3660 dial-peer, with T38 fax settings talk SIP to Asterisk 1.4.x then t38 
 pass through to my ATA.
 
 I have the 3660 there to take the call via TDM and convert to T38.  I only 
 have a single PRI which is why I don't want to have to purchase other lines 
 dedicated to a T38 faxserver, and this will give me the ability to use my 
 DIDs already assigned.
 
 That's how I plan to set it up.

In later 1.6.x firmwares there is a config option for allow transfer on

 Is there anyway to remove the Attended Transfer but keep the Blind

 I know you can remap the Hard buttons, but what about the soft

 The reason I need this is my users can't get it through their head
that they
 need to announce the call if they use the normal aka Attended

 before the press the transfer button again to complete it.
 I know if they would just use the Blind transfer we would have no
problems,
 but since the Blind transfer is on the second set of screen soft
buttons
 they aren't smart enough to find it I guess.
 The problem with them using Attended Transfer is CallerID shows up as
 theirs, when in reality they have already press the transfer button a
second
 time. We then don't answer the phone professionally since we think
that it
 is our employee calling us.

Ironically our office fax is the rxfax :)  No analog in sight here!

From: Bill Gibbs [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Date: Fri, 16 Feb 2007 15:55:13 -0500

I am testing out hylafax and iaxmodem.  Submitting jobs to the hylafax
server and having it then dial using iaxmodem is working fine.

Hylafax server is talking to my  Asterisk box that has a Sangoma A101
in
it via iaxmodem via an IAX channel using ulaw.

A call coming into a certain test DID comes into the Sangoma A101 then
it goes to another box via IAX ulaw that uses the rxfax app to capture
the fax.  I am using rxfax right now because I am just starting to test
hylafax.

Normal faxes into my test DID work fine so I know it's not the Sangoma
or rxfax app or communication between those 2 servers.  I notice the
Sangoma detects incoming fax tones for these faxes.

However, if I send the fax via iaxmodem, I notice the Sangoma sends the
call out via my trunk group that turns off the echo cancellation
(Because I am using a group I setup to do that, there it's surprise
there) but when it comes back in, the Sangoma is not turning off echo
cancellation.  The end result is rxfax gets the tiff image, but then
the
call just hangs up and the pdf is never created and sent.  The Tiff
image appears to be complete however but the call just hangs up after
that.

I don't have experience with iaxmodem (although your posting just gave
me 
great confidence that I could use it).  But you missed one piece of
info: 
when normal FAX' send to your test DID, does Sangoma turn off echo 
cancellation on that channel?  This would be a useful test to confirm
your 
theory that echo cancellation is causing the problem.

Another piece of useful information would be, when you say when it
comes 
back in, do you mean you are using iaxmodem to dial another channel in
the 
trunk group it dials out, and that channel uses iaxmodem on the same
server 
to receive the FAX call?

Yet another important - and easy - test would be the one you haven't
done: 
send a FAX via the trunk to an alalogue FAX.  Or may be you have?  I
mean, 
send a FAX via Sangoma to an alalogue line to receive the FAX.  If you
are 
concerned about spamming other people's FAX machine, you can even set up

eFAX for free in one minute, and send the test FAX to yourself. (But get
to 
wonder how your office FAX is connected.:-)

Yuan Liu

I think the problem is due to the Sangoma not detecting the fax tones.
Am I missing a setting with iaxmodem or hylafax?

To recap:

Test DID works fine with normal analog and other fax via ATA adapters
so
I think I can safely rule out a misconfiguration there

Iaxmodem registered, hylafax clearly sends the fax via it as I see it
coming back in and the tiff created using rxfax

The problem appears to be coming back - echo cancellation not being
turned off.

Unfortunately like many of us, I don't have a test PRI server I can
play
with so I have to do this after hours.  I will be turning off echo
cancellation late at night and seeing if that solves the problem but
wanted to pose this question to the list.

I have _not_ tested it to an outside analog fax yet via
hylafax/iaxmodem.

RE: [asterisk-users] iaxmodem - fax tone?

2007-02-17 Thread Bill Gibbs
Sending out works great.  No problems to external fax machines.

So it's something with sending it out and coming back in...where the
tone is not being detected.  Is there anyway to force the Sangoma to
disable echo cancellation on the fly?

I am testing out hylafax and iaxmodem.  Submitting jobs to the hylafax
server and having it then dial using iaxmodem is working fine.

Hylafax server is talking to my  Asterisk box that has a Sangoma A101
in
it via iaxmodem via an IAX channel using ulaw.

A call coming into a certain test DID comes into the Sangoma A101 then
it goes to another box via IAX ulaw that uses the rxfax app to capture
the fax.  I am using rxfax right now because I am just starting to test
hylafax.

Normal faxes into my test DID work fine so I know it's not the Sangoma
or rxfax app or communication between those 2 servers.  I notice the
Sangoma detects incoming fax tones for these faxes.

However, if I send the fax via iaxmodem, I notice the Sangoma sends the
call out via my trunk group that turns off the echo cancellation
(Because I am using a group I setup to do that, there it's surprise
there) but when it comes back in, the Sangoma is not turning off echo
cancellation.  The end result is rxfax gets the tiff image, but then
the
call just hangs up and the pdf is never created and sent.  The Tiff
image appears to be complete however but the call just hangs up after
that.

I don't have experience with iaxmodem (although your posting just gave
me 
great confidence that I could use it).  But you missed one piece of
info: 
when normal FAX' send to your test DID, does Sangoma turn off echo 
cancellation on that channel?  This would be a useful test to confirm
your 
theory that echo cancellation is causing the problem.

Another piece of useful information would be, when you say when it
comes 
back in, do you mean you are using iaxmodem to dial another channel in
the 
trunk group it dials out, and that channel uses iaxmodem on the same
server 
to receive the FAX call?

Yet another important - and easy - test would be the one you haven't
done: 
send a FAX via the trunk to an alalogue FAX.  Or may be you have?  I
mean, 
send a FAX via Sangoma to an alalogue line to receive the FAX.  If you
are 
concerned about spamming other people's FAX machine, you can even set up

eFAX for free in one minute, and send the test FAX to yourself. (But get
to 
wonder how your office FAX is connected.:-)

ten or more seconds to converge to a reasonable degree, HPEC does it in 
perhaps 300ms - converging on my intake of breath before I say hello, 
and absolutely no echo after that unless I purposefully go out of my way

to screw it up (whistling/blowing into the handpiece for instance - even

then, the malfunction is minimal).

You can now buy it from the Digium website (US$10 per channel), or if 
you have an in-warranty Digium card, email through the serial numbers to

Digium support and they'll give you a key (this is what I did).

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

2007-02-08 Thread Bill Gibbs
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?

Intercom feature: the dialed phone does not play the splash tone when

Questions:
What is the extensions.conf syntax to trigger a splash tone in Asterisk

Asterisk has evolved)?

What SIP header, etc. does the Aastra 480i firmware 1.4.1.1077 need to

Here is what he was getting at:

1.2.x and ztdummy and meetme all work fine.

However

Compile Zaptel 1.4.0, install, reboot
Zttool shows ztdummy as the timing device.  Lsmod shows it loaded.

If you then compile Asterisk 1.4.0 it fails to compile app_meetme

My quick and dirty solution just now:
Removed the DEPENDS_app_meetme=ZAPTEL from the file menuselect.makedeps
And in menuselect.makeopts I removed the DEPSFAILED line that had meetme
in it.  It then compiled.

I made a small mess of supporting the new module
loading process.  The code attempts to determine

only then load the module and register the

That is all fine and well, except I failed to
properly flag a successful config load.  How it
ever worked for me, I don't know, but here is a
quick fix:

Find this section of the code-
ast_log(LOG_NOTICE,Successfully connected to MySQL database.\n);
connected = 1;
records = 0;
connect_time = time(NULL);
}

And add this:
if (connected)
return 1;
else
return 0;

I'll get an update into svn if this works for you and
release 3.0.1

[asterisk-users] 1.4 - SLA

2007-01-25 Thread Bill Gibbs
I have read that 1.4 has shared line appearances, which I assume will
work with Polycom phones.  Has anyone configured this and verified it
working?  I was going to start playing around with it but wanted to see
if anyone else has tackled it yet.

RE: [asterisk-users] Fax through Sangoma A102

2007-01-09 Thread Bill Gibbs
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.
 
Use Zap/g1 and it will use the first group of channels with echo cancel on (or 
whatever other parameters come before the group command)

Subject: [asterisk-users] Fax through Sangoma A102


Hello,
 
in our company we are trying to do this:
 
Fax -- Traditional PBX -- Asterisk -- PSTN
 
In practice, we have put an Asterisk equipped with a Sangoma A102 (2 PRI ports) 
between our PBX (Siemens HiCom) and the PSTN in order to have a VoIP network 
along the traditional telephony network. 
 
The problem is with the fax. We just want to send and receive faxes from/to our 
fax machine connected to the Siemens (without needing any interaction with our 
VoIP network, the faxes are sent to/received from PSTN). Unfortunately we are 
experiencing a lot of problems: the faxes not always work and when they work, 
it's likely to have incomplete pages. 
 
I know that faxing with VoIP is very troublesome, but maybe someone else is 
using a similar configuration and he found a good configuration or maybe has 
some hints to improve the results.
 
We are using Asterisk 1.2.13.
 
Thanks,
Jeremi

Hi all,

I was having a similar issue, using TE110P from Digium  all incoming faxes
were detected and correctly received.

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! And yes didn't change anything on Zapata config or something else
on Asterisk Box, i just added IAX account registred my Hylafax IAXmodem
there and Voilá :)

 Check to see if there is Echo cancellation in the SPA-1001, and if so
 turn it off. If there is an adaptive Jitter buffer on the SPA-1001, try
 changing it to a fixed one (probably no more than 40ms).

 Why would you connect a fax machine to an X100P, aren't they FXO cards?

 Have you tried terminating to a VOIP provider? (to see if the problem is
 with the ATA).

 Here I use a fax machine connected to a CS6220 which is connected to the
 asterisk box and terminates with a TDM400P card (so a completely
 different arrangement).

 
 
  Any other suggestions?  Black magic?  Voodoo?

RE: [asterisk-users] Detect IP path before calling

2007-01-03 Thread Bill Gibbs

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.

With the chanisavail command.

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?  I'll go to scripting if no other easy way.

[asterisk-users] yet another faxing issue (outbound only, via ATA)

2007-01-02 Thread Bill Gibbs
2 Asterisk servers 1.2.12.1

Connected via IAX2, same switch, GigE, no packet loss, etc

1 with a Sangoma A101 for a PRI to the PSTN

Ulaw

QoS enabled

NAT for the registered ATA boxes, no nat between the * servers

 

Faxing inbound:

Call from PRI hits the first Asterisk server

Then talks to the 2nd via IAX2

NVFaxDetect receives the fax, converts to PDF and emails it out

 

Works great!  Never had an issue

 

The problem, however is outbound.

 

Sipura 1001 ATAs. Fax machine connected to the ATA.

 

Registered to the 2nd asterisk box.  Keep in mind this server runs voice
calls just fine.

 

Outbound calls from this box are ulaw

The call is then sent via IAX2 (also tried SIP as well) to the Asterisk
server w/ the PRI, then out to the world

 

Hit and miss to send faxes out

Echo cancellation is enabled on the PRI

I have lowered the rxgain and txgain to -5.0, seems fine for voice.

The ATA is running 3.1.8 firmware from Sipura with fax detect turned 

 

Usually the faxes fail, but sometimes you will get all the pages, but
only a fraction of the page.

 

I have tried turning off ECM but still the same issue.

 

I would suspect the Sangom or IAX2, or something of that nature except
receiving faxes traveling to the 2nd asterisk box works just fine!

 

I also tried to register the ATA to the primary Asterisk server w/ the
PRI, same exact issue.

 

Any ideas - better luck w/ Grandstream?

 

I suspect the problem is not Asterisk, or the Sangoma, or jitter or
bandwidth since receiving faxes works fine.  I did not try to receive
faxes through the ATA to the machine itself, I tried that a few months
ago during other testing, never got it to work so I never tried again
once I got NVFaxDetect working for email.

 

My next step is to connect the fax machine to a Wildcard X100P.

 

Any other suggestions?  Black magic?  Voodoo?

[asterisk-users] RE: yet another faxing issue (outbound only, via ATA)

2007-01-02 Thread Bill Gibbs
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!

This is only a guess.  The Sangoma is detecting the fax when it receives
it, and is turning off echo cancel.  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.  The Cisco 3660
recognizes that it is a fax and turns off echo (or doesn't have echo
cancellation). 

 

Question:  If you turn OFF echo cancellation, does it work then?

Sorry, sorry !!!  I was mixed with another config when I wrote my first 
email !!

In fact, User A is registered on Asterisk and user B has a public phone 
number (no link with Asterisk).

Our test is : User A calls asterisk server via SIP. As User A context 
has a DIAL('user B phone number'),
Asterisk calls user B via ISDN line. Then, user B  phone rings and we 
can see  the caller  phone number  on
user B phone screen. This caller number is our ISDN line number. What we

would like to do is to hide the caller number (our ISDN line number).
We tried usecallerid, callerid, hidecallerid, restrictcid, 
usecallingpres in zapata.conf but it doesn't work.

Do you or anyone know how to hide it?


Thanks you!

 I'm not getting a clear picture of how the ISDN PRI gets into it if  
 both users are registered (SIP I assume)
 to the same asterisk.

 If the call actually goes out via a Public ISDN line, you have to get

 the provider to agree to let
 you set the outgoing number. Normally they will only let you set it  
 to one of the inbound numbers
 that you have bought from them :-)

 If that doesn't help,
 please re-phrase the question...

[asterisk-users] Dial groups, groups of phones, multiple line keys

2006-12-08 Thread Bill Gibbs
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] Polycom buddies question

2006-12-07 Thread Bill Gibbs
I know this is not asterisk specific but we all know this group is used
for Polycom issues as well...

 

I have hints working ok on Asterisk.  However the Polycom phone will
only show the buddies key if there is not a call.  This defeats the
purpose of using the buddies to see if you can transfer a call to
another extension (using the Buddy key to see if they are on the phone).


 

Polycom sip version:

1.6.6.0036 for all platforms except 11402_001

1.6.6.0042 for 11402_001

 

Any way around this?

 

The big issue is moving from a key system to this is the ability to use
the phone to see who is on the phone so you know if you can transfer a
call.  Obviously web based interfaces work but that draws your attention
from the phone to the computer reducing effectiveness.

 

Buddies half solve this...

Sticky Polycom 501 keys and handset









Hi,











I've recently bought new Polycom 501
phones, upgraded to bootrom 3.2.2 and SIP 2.0.1. I just noticed
something, which I first blamed on Asterisk and NATs (a 2 second silence at the
beginning of a call). Something I'venoticed also on my old phone
(which is having the same problem now, but its also been upgraded).











My keys are sticky. Simple as
that. Sometimes I press a number and the key comes up (the hardware seems
fine) but the phone produces this lng tone as if I had pressed the key for
3 seconds. Even the receiver is sticky, giving my dialtone when I lift it
only1-2 seconds after I lift the handset. It simply looks like the
phone can't keep up, like a sluggishcomputer.











Anybody has ever seem this?
I'd like to downgrde to SIP 1.6.7 to see if the new sip app was the
problem. How can I do that? I've placed the old sip.ld file where I
had to, but the phone wont pick it up. 











Short of that, can somebody point me
to the newest firmware (2.0.2) to see if thatwould help?

[asterisk-users] question about IF

2006-10-26 Thread Bill Gibbs








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.

I have a couple polycom phones (501 and 601) I'm messing around with and

I've noticed something weird. Both phones synchronize their clocks to a 
central NTP server here on our network and both phones are 11 seconds 
slow. All of our servers, switches, routers and PCs also sync to this 
time source and are spot on. Even the budgetone 101 is spot on. Has 
anyone else experienced this? I know I'm being anal retentive but it's 
driving me nuts.

The phone is getting it's sntp server and offset settings via DHCP and 
they show correct on the phone. The phone is running v1.6.7 firmware.

501 One-way Audio





I have a site running an up-to-date version of Asterisk from the 1.2
trunk. We have a dozen Polycom 501 units and one of them (none of the
others) is having recurring one-way-audio problems. As Murphy's Law
dictates, it's the bosses phone!

The user gets a few calls a day where the caller can hear her fine but she
hears dead silence. It happens when she calls out sometimes too.
Even internal voicemail and extension-to-extension calls are affected. I
just called her three times from another extension; the first two were
affected, the third got through. None of the other units seem to have the
problem. They're all running the same firmware and are loading central
configs that are identical except for line-button text and registration info.

I've been running * with lots of debug/verbose logging enabled and have yet to
see it complain about anything when she reports the problem. I'm about to
replace her phone with a spare to see if that fixes it. Wondering if
anyone has seen something like this and might be able to tell me what to look
for as a potential cause.

[asterisk-users] sip.conf for talking to other Asterisk machines

2006-09-18 Thread Bill Gibbs








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.

Part of the directory as well as when you get to leave that person a VM

it will read back the greeting file) are the 2 places I have heard it so

Subject: [asterisk-users] QuadBRI and Zyxel Wifi phone stop working
togetherafter 3 calls

Hi,
I have a strange problem that I have no idea how to debug:

I have a Zyxel Prestige 2000W Wifi telephone that is connected to my  
Asterisk server which has a Junghanns.net QuadBRI card. I can make  
exactly 3 calls to the outside over the QuadBRI. Any calls after  
that fail with the log saying that all lines are busy.

Turning the phone off and on solves the problem and I can make 3  
calls again before it repeats. This problem does not occur when I  
make calls from my Cisco 7960G phones using SCCP or using eyebeam and  
SIP. Also making calls from the Zyxel through a cheap Cologne chipset  
ISDN card using zaphfc does not show this problem.

I am using the following versions:
Asterisk 1.2.9.1-BRIstuffed-0.3.0-PRE-1r
Zyxel Prestige 2000W (version 1)
Zyxel-Firmware: Wj.00.11


Any help is very much appreciated,

Frederik

I've configured the fax receive in the

In the Debuglevel i see, while i send a fax,that he wants to
write the tif file.





But on my sending machine i got the error 3311 the
number isn't a g3 fax.





On asterisk i don't find any errors.











When i call the number with a telefon i got the fax sound.











Can you help me ?

I have a single phone with multiple extensions in the

I know the Asterisk config is good because every device

There is a Timeout SIP in the config.  What is it set to?  If it is 
less than the the qualify interval, which I believe is 60 seconds, then 
the PIX will close the inbound hole for qualify traffic.  We've got lots

of phones at several remote sites all running behind PIX's and all being

NAT'd to the same IP (per location) and everything works perfect if 
qualify is on.  If we disable qualify, then the SIP inbound hole gets 
closed per the Timeout SIP and calls don't go through until the phone 
re-registers and the hole opens again (they can still call out).

[asterisk-users] Call parking with Polycom's - works but MOH stops in one scenario

2006-08-28 Thread Bill Gibbs








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? There doesnt seem to be any
documentation about it and hitting the button does nothing.



Music on hold plays (transfer quick, just before the last
digit is read back)

Notice the MOH starts for the parked call after the ZOMBIE
lines

 -- Incoming call: Got SIP response 500

so I see how it started, then stopped, then started MOH
again



now if I do it after I wait after the last digit is read and
then hit Transfer here's the log output:

It never initiates the MOH  is this because Asterisk
thinks its now on a real extension hence no MOH

Notice how the started MOH is initiated BEFORE the lines
about the ZOMBIE stuff than above where it worked

[asterisk-users] RE: Call parking with Polycom's - works but MOH stops in one scenario

When using the # key identified in

of documentation on the built in Park button

Subject: 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? There
doesnt seem to be any documentation about it and hitting the button does
nothing.



Music on hold plays (transfer quick, just before the last
digit is read back)

Notice the MOH starts for the parked call after the ZOMBIE
lines

so I see how it started, then stopped, then started MOH
again



now if I do it after I wait after the last digit is read and
then hit Transfer here's the log output:

It never initiates the MOH  is this because Asterisk
thinks its now on a real extension hence no MOH

Notice how the started MOH is initiated BEFORE the lines

2006-08-25 Thread Bill Gibbs








Asterisk server is setup in /etc/resolv.conf to query my
primary and backup NS. Had an issue with my primary NS and asterisk refused to
complete any calls or forward inbound calls to extensions. I had to manually
switch it to look at the backup NS first then reboot for it to start working
while I fixed the primary. Is this behavior normal or am I missing a step? All
hosts, etc are identified by IP.

[asterisk-users] Cisco PIX firewall and nat=yes

2006-08-23 Thread Bill Gibbs








I have a Polycom 501 that works great from behind simple
firewalls, like Dlink, etc however behind a Cisco PIX Firewall I see the
register messages for the extensions on the Asterisk CLI but when I do a sip
show peers I see:



702/702
x.x.x.x D N
54297 UNREACHABLE

701/701
x.x.x.x D N
54297 UNREACHABLE

700/700
x.x.x.x D N
54297 UNREACHABLE



But I see stuff like

n Registered
SIP '702' at x.x.x.x port 54297 expires 60



I have a single phone with multiple extensions in the
example above. As a test I changed that phone to a single extension
(700), I see the Registered line but it still says UNREACHABLE.



I know the Asterisk config is good because every device
(soft, hard phone) works and I know the NAT works because Ive tested
that out.



SoIm thinking it has something to do with the
PIX. Any ideas?

That was the first thing I tried:  first trying to unload/reload the

anything on the Adtran has changed or not (or reseat cables).  My remote

The fact that I am not getting any error reports at all about the

would
have to imagine that if the channel switched from PRI to T1 it would

The only errors I am seeing are the ones about the D channel not being

For paging, and I have not done this yet,
you would probably have to invite all the phones to a conference with the

The below works great for intercom though .

For intercom, do you mean placing a call

If so, the following works for legacy

exten = _*803X.,1,Macro(user-callerid)
exten = _*803X.,2,SetVar(_ALERT_INFO=info=alert-autoanswer)





exten =

(so you dial *803 and then the extension

Similar techniques can be used for page.

I have a company that I am going to be moving away from a

receptionist pages all of the phones, telling them there is a call. Does anyone

possible. I see that intercom is not supported and paging appears to be
minimally supported.

RE: [asterisk-users] Ever donate Software to Digium? If you didyoura fool.

2006-08-09 Thread Bill Gibbs
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.

You only see this type of jealousy from people who haven't made an
impact, open or closed source.

I see people on the lists complaining about having to pay $10 for a g729
codec or that some of the digital interface cards are a lot of money -
that's such a small thing to complain about when you are getting
Asterisk for $0 and it's enabled you to make money!

With respect, I don't think you understand the dynamics of growing a 
business. 

If we are all to benefit from the continued development of Asterisk then

it is in our own best interests for Digium to succeed, because their 
success is for our benefit.  Your posting is unfortunate as it 
disregards the considerable effort, cost and time put into Asterisk by 
Mark and Digium.  By the way, I have no relation with Digium other than 
to derive a considerable benefit from open source software developed by 
Mark/Digium and a lot of other programmers, for which I am extremely 
grateful.

Digium is not being given a whole load of money - the investors will 
want a slice of the company and the future profits.  That's how VC 
funding works.

In my 1.6.6 software those options are only available in sip.cfg...can I

 The handset volume works fine but I just find the headset a little low
 even on the highest setting.

You can set the gain for the headset, the handset, and the speakerphone
all separately in the sip.cfg file or override per phone.  There are two
settings voice.gain.rx.digital.headset and voice.gain.rx.analog.headset.
I can't remember which one you need to change.

disconnects

Just a note for Polycom phone users, that will hopefully help someone.

Ever since deploying an office full of Polycom 601 phones, some users
have experienced intermittent disconnects, where voice transmit dies, or
both receive and transmit dies. Absolutely nothing in the Asterisk logs.

Solution: plug the socket into the handset in properly! Pushing the
socket in, it make a nice 'click' and _seems_ to be in, but it's not
(and
is a bit wobbly). Push it further, until the plastic hook is not exposed
at all, and it makes another click. Now it's in :)

I've searched through the newsgroup and online and haven't found an
answer for my question... maybe I am looking for the wrong terms, I am
not sure...

I have a client that would like a phone that is like a typical
receptionists phone.

Requirements:
- Ability for their 3 lines to light-up a button on the phone when one
of them rings in.
- Ability for the phone to ring when the receptionist is on one call and
a second or third call is incoming. (this has been the biggest
frustration up to now. When a second call comes, there is no tone that
heard on the IP500. Perhaps I am missing a setting?)

We are currently using:

Asterisk @ Home 2.1
Polycom IP500/501 phones

Is there a way to do what we need to using the IP500 phones? If so, can
anyone give me instructions on how to make it work with [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks for your help in advance.

Bill,
Our solution was to simply retrain the users to use call parking. The company
had used a key system for more then a decade and I thought the change would be
a tough one, but for the most part people have handled the change from
Pickup line 1 to Pickup 71. Not an exact fit I know,

Subject: [asterisk-users] Server
Optimization and Load Balancing





I'm hoping to get some guidance on some of our asterisk growing
pains. 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

 I upgraded one of the boxes to 1.2.9.1 and using native MOH I 
 still get
 it.  I made sure to upgrade zaptel, etc as well.
 
 I do have something of interest to note...
 Placing the call on hold then taking it off hold and back on the music
 is ok (doing that once it gets choppy) of course this is not practical
 since the person using hold won't know if it's choppy.  It then gets
 choppy again if you wait 15-20 secs.
 
 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??? 
 
 There is not a bandwidth issue, the 3660 and boxes are on the same
 switch VLAN w/ DSCP enabled.

You will also want to add

no vad 

to your dial-peer config to disable voice activity detection.

I do not think it will resolve your issue, but worth a shot.

 I upgraded one of the boxes to 1.2.9.1 and using native MOH I 
 still get
 it.  I made sure to upgrade zaptel, etc as well.
 
 I do have something of interest to note...
 Placing the call on hold then taking it off hold and back on the music
 is ok (doing that once it gets choppy) of course this is not practical
 since the person using hold won't know if it's choppy.  It then gets
 choppy again if you wait 15-20 secs.
 
 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

[asterisk-users] Choppy MOH (Cisco gateway)

2006-07-09 Thread Bill Gibbs








Cisco 3660 with a PRI talking SIP to various Asterisk boxes
(not connected, separate PBXs) using ulaw all have issues with music on
hold being choppy. Normal voice and SIP (taking a call from the PRI,
placing a call or extension to extension calls) conversations are _perfect_ with no drop outs so its
not a problem with the PRI or the 3660 talking to the Asterisk boxes. If
I call from my Polycom into an extension that immediately starts MusicOnHold its
perfect as well.



However, calling into the box via the PRI and being placed
on hold the music is choppy. Also, calling into an extension that spawns
MusicOnHold immediately is choppy when it comes in via the Cisco.



This happens with mpg123, madplay and I tried using the
Asterisk 1.2 native mode in musiconhold.conf:



[default]

mode = files

directory = /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3

random = yes



Same problem with all 3.



Tried converting MP3s to a pcm or ulaw file, same problem
(using lame and sox to do the conversions)



It seems that this is common issue with no clear resolution.



Machines are Pentium 4s 512MB or 1GB RAM. I would be
the only call on the box, no load, etc.

Using ztdummy (or without, same behavior)

Asterisk ver 1.2.4 on all

Normal voice, IVR, play back voicemail, etc are all 100%
perfect only on MusicOnHold has this issue

Polycom SIP phones or using X-Lite to test (used to make the
call into MusicOnHold or answer the call coming in via the PRI and placing on
hold)

Calling in from landline or cell phone  no difference



Any ideas?

[asterisk-users] Tadiran Coral IP PBX to Asterisk

2006-07-06 Thread Bill Gibbs








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?

You are correct, I did ask the owner of the Coral to find out if it can
act as a client as well, which would be perfect and save the hassle of
going TDM.  Do I need to be considered about QSIG when doing PRI

 From what I understand, you can connect MGCP clients to Asterisk, so, 
if your Coral IP PBX is a mgcp client, it may work, otherwise...
(quite frankly, I don't think it is the case, from wa quick search in 
google, it seems the Coral IP PBX is a Call Agent itself, not a media 
gateway/MGCP client)

I have a situation that has repeated itself a few times.  Someone calls
into Asterisk and is connected with a voice extension.  At some point
during the call, the log shows chan_zap.c: DTMF digit: f on Zap/2-1.
At this point, the call is redirected to receive a fax and the Asterisk
voice extension is hung up.  The users report that there were no
noticable tones heard just before the cutover, so I'm not sure what's
going on.  Is there a way to disable detection of faxes after the
voicecall is initiated?  We're running a Digium card to convert our
analog trunks if that makes any difference.

Thanks!

Bill,

How about creating a special SIP user for line 3:

sip.conf:
[int]
username: int
context: int
blah blah blah

It doesn't have to (and shouldn't) register.

extensions.conf:

[int]
exten - _XXX,1,Goto(phones,7${EXTEN},1) ; make sure this context is ; 
;right.

Heres a snippet of what worked on a

reg.1.displayName=x110 

reg.1.address=110 

reg.1.label=x110

If you want multiple registrations, just
change the 110 and password to whatever the other extension is.

601 problems with multiple registrations





Im stumped on this one and any help would be greatly
appreciated.



Im just trying to get my Polycom 601 to have multiple
extensions on it. For example, on line 1 I want extension 21, on line 2 I
want extension 22, and on line 3 I want extension 23. Ideally Id
actually have each extension appear on 2 lines and therefore filling up all
6. I should be able to do that with the reg.x.lineKeys parameter.
Anyway, Im not even at the point of getting multiple registrations to
work, so Ill worry about that later. Right now the only thing that
works is registering the first extension  it registers just fine and
works as expected. No matter what extension I put on there it works, but
I only have line 1 working. What am I doing wrong?



Okay, now my config. Ive got a REALLY basic set
up. I copied the files off the wiki from krisk.org. I completely
removed ipmid.cfg temporarily so it wouldnt interfere with this (putting
it back in place has no effect). That leaves me with just sip.cfg and the
phone cfg file. Im booting with FTP. I know the config files
are loading correctly because I can make changes and they do have an
effect. Heres the phone20.cfg file for the phone:

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Polycom Intercom - almost there

2006-06-21 Thread Bill Gibbs
I see what you mean.  I am having one too many beers and trying to
decipher the FreePBX config files right now :)

But I can see how this will work...so I will give it a shot!

 exten = _7XXX,2,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN:1},12,Tt)
 
  
 
 and configured my Polycoms via this page 
 http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Polycom+auto-answer+config for auto

 answer and that works fine if I dial 7 then the 3 digit extension.
 
  
 
 No problems, the receiving end answers automatically and everything 
 works great.
 
  
 
 However, since we are migrating from a key system I would like to have

 one of the hard buttons, say the 3^rd line key in a 501 for example to

 automatically initiate the 7 so the user only has to enter in the 
 extension and it automatically does the intercom style feature, thus 
 saving a key press.
 
  
 
 I can easily set the 3^rd line key to generate dial tone:
 
  
 
 In sip.conf
 
  
 
keys key.scrolling.timeout=1
key.IP_500.33.function.prim=Handsfree/
 
  
 
 That makes a dialtone and I can dial as normal however I would like to

 put the 7 in there automatically so they just have to dial.  The 
 subPoint.prim function is an integer that references an array value so

 that won't work.
 
  
 
 Any ideas or suggestions?  Just trying to keep the number of button 
 presses to a minimum.

Bill,

How about creating a special SIP user for line 3:

sip.conf:
[int]
username: int
context: int
blah blah blah

It doesn't have to (and shouldn't) register.

extensions.conf:

[int]
exten - _XXX,1,Goto(phones,7${EXTEN},1) ; make sure this context is ; 
;right.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Voicemail to Email on Blackberry

2006-06-08 Thread Bill Gibbs
I couldn't find one but I didn't look too hard.
 
To be honest, the Blackberry is so easy to use with one hand I dropped the 
issue.
 
We actually switched to Windows Mobile devices which suck compared to the 
Blackberry for email/ease of use but I can now one click listen to my voicemail 
without dialing in (and using the horrible on screen only keypad of my new 
phone...which is the only reason I listen to the attachment via a phone now.

Is there any setting in the voicemail that will send the voicemail file in a

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Problem with simple incoming calls

2006-06-06 Thread Bill Gibbs
What do the call logs say (/var/log/asterisk/full)

When in doubt - reboot via cron once a day...

Personally I am running an ITSP and have yet to experience any of the
issues I read about daily so I am still trying to figure out why...

I am running all TDM via Cisco 3660s and all my Asterisk boxes talk to
the rest of the world via SIP.  3660 - Asterisk via ulaw and a long
distance provider via SIP as well (another 3660 I am talking to)

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Problem with simple incoming calls

Hi all,

I must admit that I am stuck.  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.

The debug messages from the latter example are as follows:

This is not necessarily Asterisk specific but if I have
Polycom 301/501 and 601s and want to dial a missed call back, how do I prepend
a 9  can I do this via the polycom config? I cant find anything
in the docs.
