dialled from any extension (which is why option a was unsuitable.

 Have you tried setting the channel language to fr (language=fr in the
 device configuration, or SetLanguage(fr) in the extensions.conf file)?
 
 This seems to be all that is needed.

[Asterisk-Users] AGI say number but in french

2005-06-27 Thread David John Walsh
Hello,

does anyone know how to get the say number (say.c) agi application
to work in french [assuming that I have the French voice files]

I have looked in the code and about a 1/3 of the way thru there is :

/*--- ast_say_number_full: call language-specific functions */
/* Called from AGI */
int ast_say_number_full(struct ast_channel *chan, int num, char *ints,
char *language, char *options, int audiofd, int ctrlfd)
{
if (!strcasecmp(language,en) ) {  /* English syntax */
   return(ast_say_number_full_en(chan, num, ints, language,
audiofd, ctrlfd));
} else if (!strcasecmp(language, da) ) {  /* Danish syntax */
   return(ast_say_number_full_da(chan, num, ints, language,
options, audiofd, ctrlfd));
} else if (!strcasecmp(language, de) ) {  /* German syntax */
   return(ast_say_number_full_de(chan, num, ints, language,
options, audiofd, ctrlfd));
} else if (!strcasecmp(language, es) ||
!strcasecmp(language, mx)) {/* Spanish syntax */
   return(ast_say_number_full_es(chan, num, ints, language,

and then further on there is logic for french numbers.

Sorry for asking a seemingly new person question, but how do you get
from the code below to a working app for asterisk?

is it just a case of putting this into the source directory and doing
make install or gcc somthing.c?

then how do you get asterisk to understand that it is avaible to it?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Bill seconds

2005-06-17 Thread David John Walsh
Americo

60+60 isn't a VoIP term directly but a generic one within the telephony industry

if it were 60+30 it would mean the following

You are billed for 60 second as soon as the call is answered, even if
you only stay on the line for 7 seconds

The +30 then referes to the onward billing cycle, so in this case you
are billed in blocks of 30 seconds (ie if you call is 1 min 15 seconds
you are billed for 1 min 30)

You said that you are billed for a whole second minuite if you go over
by even 1 second, so that would be a +60, and since its always a
bigger or equal number first we are guessing that you are in 60+60
rate plan

I think its more common in your part of the world for your carriers to
bill 30+6.  One in the replys suggested a very favorable rate of 6+6

The important thing to rember here is that you can't gaurentee enough
return if you do a billing rate that is better than that of your
carriers - it sounds to me like your offering your service on a 1+1
(ie true per second billing) rate - very honarable, but your carrier
needs to offer the same.

I hope that helps

 The easiest way is to change another vendor asap.
 Do you mean to change to another telecom? In my country there is a telephone
 monopoly :( Telefonica del Peru)
 It is ridiculous that your
 carrier still uses 60+60 now(30+6 is an asset). 2 seconds doesn't matter
 and
 billing unit does.
 Sorry I am not an expert in VoIP, What is the meaning of 60+60?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Dell PowerEdge + TDM

2005-06-17 Thread David John Walsh
Here we have PowerEdge 2850's doing the donky work with a Wildcard
TE405P in each.

I have seen no operational issues at all with the system or the cards.
 We are running CentOS 3 as the operating system and the stable
version of asterisk

The only niggle is that when the cards are modprobed on start up
they sometimes 2 in a 100 give an NMI message, causing an error
code on the servers little window, its not affected the stability at
all, and its on my list of things to do to find out what causes it!

The systems generally have around 400 - 500 SIP extensions comming off
the back, running around a dual xeon 3Ghz and 3Gb of ram (no
transcoding all G711.u) - we are very happy!

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Bill seconds

2005-06-16 Thread David John Walsh
Another way I have seen this done is to sell units, not pounds and pence credit

eg a 2 calling card has 160 units (ratio of 80 units to the pound).

If you were to charge 8p per min you make that 8 units per min.   This
gives you a 20% increase which might help if your on per second
billing to your upstream carrier.

otherwise you need to make changes to your rating engine  with a 
/60*58  to re-rate all calls back to a second ( /60) and move the
minuite charge to be a 58 second minuit (*58)

how that is achived needs you to give specific information on which
calling card platform you are using.

You may have a problem in defining  the rates as per minuite if they
are not a widely understood minuite legally - it depends on the laws
of your country (in the UK the Trades Descriptions Act would apply and
you'd be hit hard)

 Your customers are not going to like this.
 
 You have to change the way you bill for calls.
 
 For $1 your customer gets 60 seconds worth of phone time. However you
 have to also charge, like the Bells used to, for setup and teardown
 time. Remember the operator used to say  Deposit $1.85 for the first
 three minutes and then it would be 30 cents per minute after that.
 
 Buy a phone card from a competitor and look at the fine print on the
 card.
 
 You charge buy seconds they are connected to your system, not for the
 time they are actually talking to the remote party.
 
 Example:
 
 To set up the call you charge 10 seconds, and to stop the call you
 charge 5 seconds. So the customer only gets 45 seconds of call time. You
 get a 15 second cushion.
 
 Does not seem fair does it. But if they buy an hour 3600 seconds worth
 of calls the missing 15 seconds won't be noticed.
 
 You can go further.
 
 Say they buy a 3600 second card. When they call to check their time the
 first time on the card you tell them they have 60 minutes, but you
 charge them 30 seconds for asking. Set up the code so that every time
 they call you have too fields to track call time. The time they think
 they have and the time you know they have.
 
 You tell them they have 45 minutes, but the other field knows they only
 have 30 minutes. If they ask then your script says 45 minutes left but
 you cut them off when the use 30.
 
 Then you chip away each time the call. 10 seconds for making a call, and
 5 seconds when they hang up. This way you are always in credit and can
 cut them off without loosing money.
 
 Some card vendors go even further. They sell 3600 seconds, but each time
 a call is made they whack a random percentage of the time.
 
 Worse yet their card system will randomly or systematically hang up on
 callers. This will cause the user to redial the call and get hit with
 connection charges that vary.
 
 Customers eventually figure out which cards do this type of chicanery
 and they stop buying them, but only if there is a competitor for the
 route they want to call.
 
 Such is the world of unregulated phone calls. Not pretty is it.
 
 Charging time for each call is part of the business. If you don't want
 to charge time to setup and teardown then you have to charge more per
 minute. Your customers get all the time the pay for down to the second,
 but you are going to have to charge more per minute or you will be in
 the boat you are in now.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] AreskiCC Calling Problem

2005-06-11 Thread David John Walsh
in one of the two defines configs (where you set the database up)
(sorry cant recall which one and im out of the office)  there is a min
call value, its set by default around the 10 unit mark.  if the cards
credit is below this it stops you going any further. I can only assume
this was to end the call quickly if there is no chance of it
completing and you user is dialing in on a 0800 or 0808 style number
where you as the operator pick up that part of the bill

That aside, if you change this value to 0 it take away that limit.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Do I need a ring capacitor to use TDM400P cards in UK

2005-06-08 Thread David John Walsh
Angus

a BT socket with a capacitor in is commonly refered to as a Master
socket, and are very cheap even without wholesale.  It gets its name
from being the socket that BT installed into the house for the line,
all other sockets in the house will be slave or secondary (ie no
capacitor) (and its against the law to play with the one BT installed
- but thats off topic!)

I'm not going to name names of where you can buy them, but they
extreamly widely availible across the UK.

Its all from historic reasons from when BT started providing wall
sockets, and the phrase BABT aproved was common, quite a quirky thing
to the UK these days.

If you want exact suppliers, email me directly.

 Hi Angus,
 If you connect the phone directly to the outside line will it ring ?
 The ring from the C.O. provides a  90volt AC (30cps) and is capable of
 ringing a standard phone ( a real two tone gong bell)  My guess is that
 the TDM400 card does not supply enough current to actually do this. Most
 modern phones have an electronic ringer which requires a fraction of the
 power and will work fine.
 
 I don't quite understand the reference to a capacitor unless your phone
 is as old as I am  in which case the phone has 2 x pairs of  wires going
 to the phone plug. The first pair of wires are the voice pair and the
 second pair are connected to the ringer if this is the case  your
 phone will  work normally but simply doesn't ring.
 The fix is to connect two capacitors approx  *0.15 uf  250vw *from each
 wire of the voice pair to each wire of the ring pair  (you can do this
 inside the phone jack)
 This should not cost much (about a dollar) and can be found in any
 electronics component shop (try Maplin electronics) . Concidering the
 time and effort you might want to buy a new phone.

  I have played about with a TDM400 card and plugged in some standard
  analog phones.  I am using the card in FXS mode - for analog
  extensions.  I did notice that one of my phones did not ring and I
  wondered why.  I later read in Paul Mahler's book VoIP Telephony with
  Asterisk that in his section on the TDM400 on page 127 he says In the
  UK, you may need an adapter that provides a ring capacitor, or the
  phone may not ring.
 
  Can anyone confirm this.  Also what is one of those and where would I
  find a good supplier?  I am in the trade so wholesale would be OK.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] AAH 1.1 - CRM Setup

2005-06-07 Thread David John Walsh
Breifly - yes

in the users extension - define it as SIP/3001 (if the users extension is 3001)

in the contacts part - define it as you would dial it eg 020 0001 01234

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Sipura 3000 dialing noise

2005-05-31 Thread David John Walsh
Eric

A completly off topic response (and not even a response in that I'm
asking you a question - sorry)

you say that you have several 3000 devices and you show your dial string as :

Dial(SIP/${EXTEN:[EMAIL PROTECTED])

Is the sipura1 section referencing a single sipura or the group of
several.  The only reason that I ask if it is the latter - how are
you grouping them.

Thanks for you response if i figure the answer to your question I
will post back.

David

On 31/05/05, Eric Bishop [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 Hi all,
 
 We have several sipura 3000's working well for outbound calls, however
 the issue we have is that when calls are sent to the Sipura with
 Dial(SIP/${EXTEN:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) the Sipura does a SIP answer immediately
 and then proceeds with the call in band therefore sending dialing
 sounds back to the caller. Other SIP gateways we have notably the
 Vegastream and others do not do a SIP answer until the call is
 successfully connected to the called party.
 
 Any ideas?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Automatic Codec change for different communication channels!?

2005-05-31 Thread David John Walsh
This is off the top of my head - never tested

For the end user device (ie polycom in your case) your sip settings
would be something like

[5000]
username=5000
SNIP
deny=all
allow=ulaw
allow=alaw
allow=G729

which would give you both

Then if you in the Trunk set the following

[Trunkroute]
username=asterisk2
SNIP
deny=all
allow=G729

Actually thinking some more, this might not work, as your asterisk box
may transcode it, although it might not - but even if my logic is
flawed here, it might inspire?

as long as the phone is happy to take something other than a strict IP

Re: [Asterisk-Users] User cannot dial

2005-05-19 Thread David John Walsh
When you say she can't dial out, what error message is she reciving?
(if your using the windows version, turn off the skin, then you get an
info button, click on that and you get another box below the user side
- it gives some debug but not a lot)

does you asterisk box see any packets from her?  

As she is behind a firewall, and you can ring her, it means that your
asterisk box has seen her register requests and has communicated with
her, so its unlikely to be the SJphone, unless there are some wayward
settings on it

also what settings does she have on her asterisk profile?

does it work with x-lite

if (on asterisk cli) you do sip debug ip (her ip address and port) ;
or sip debug peer peername and try to make a call - do you see
anything comming in?

Chris,

Don't forget that a change in features.conf requires a restart of
asterisk (or the modual features.c) - you can't get away with just a
reload.

[Asterisk-Users] zaptel.conf in /etc not /etc/asterisk - historical reason?

2005-05-16 Thread David John Walsh
Hello all

I am in the process of trying to create a more fault tolerent HW setup
for my asterisk platform,  its all going well and I intend to do a
wiki about it once its seen to be working.

One thing gets me, and hopefully someone here can confirm my suspision
- why is zaptel.conf not with the other asterisk files

(I assume it is because its responsable for bringing up the hardware,
not strictly part of the asterisk application)

Would someone care to confirm my suspision, and if I'm wrong advise me why.

As a follow on to this - if i were to move it somewhere else, is it
the somthing.c file that  would need to be changed to reflect this
move.

Thanks

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Re: zaptel.conf in /etc not /etc/asterisk - historical reason?

2005-05-16 Thread David John Walsh
Thanks for getting back to me,

the only reason that I see to move it (and more importantly to move it
to /etc/asterisk)
is that I am intending to use DRDB to make the machines as identical
as possible, and to ensure that the configs of the two machines are
kept in-sync.

My mount points for the 3 replicated drives were going to be
/etc/asterisk
/var
and /home (or /users)

I cant replicate /etc as things need to be different in some of its
child directories (init.d and sysconf are two) (although I guess I
could as I'm not intending to replicate /var/spool/ and thats below
var)

If zaptel.conf moves to /etc/asterisk, it keeps my replication simpler
than adding lots of mount points

nb - DRDB is a replication technology (laymans term I know) (commonly
used with linux-ha)

I agree it doesn't belong in /etc/asterisk, but its convient,
especially since I know of no other application that interfaces with
it :)

 Yes. Zaptel came before Asterisk and is independent of it. It is possible
 for other non-Asterisk software to make use of Zaptel, without Asterisk
 needing to be present at all.
 
  Would someone care to confirm my suspision, and if I'm wrong advise me why.
 
  As a follow on to this - if i were to move it somewhere else, is it
  the somthing.c file that  would need to be changed to reflect this
  move.
 
 Don't know, but I have trouble understanding the need to move it.
 
 The only place that it would make sense to move it to would be
 /etc/zaptel/zaptel.conf, but since it is a single file, why bother?
 It certainly doesn't belong in the /etc/asterisk directory.

Paul  I apreciate why you've  the dialled digits out there, but
would you be good enough to include the first few, as if your asterisk

Other than that it seems someone else has posted config for your

Re: [Asterisk-Users] AreskiCC Install Problems

2005-05-12 Thread David John Walsh
Those files I indicated to check :

/var/lib/pgsql/data  (on a redhat flavor)

pg_hba.conf   - This one needs lines similar to
local all all   password
host all all0.0.0.0  0.0.0.0 password

(not you probably want a more restrictive ip range / net mask here!!)

postgresql.conf

make sure it has a line
tcpip_sockets=true

Make sure you have the following packages
rh-postgres-server
php-pgsql

or the files containted within

Finally, if you haven't, make sure you restart both postgres and
apache to ensure they have seen the changes to the config (apache
needs to see the updates containted within php-pgsql

as an after thought, it is required that php-globals=on,  I have never
had to set that and am not sure which file its in (I do belive however
that it refers to an apache config file not an areski one)

As a hope thought - I have sucsessfuly got both versions of areskicc
working at some point, so its not flawed code.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Snom 360

2005-05-12 Thread David John Walsh
Colin

Similar to Gary's response in that I haven't seem many of these issues.

One that is similar, is that of you saying you need to press voicemail
key twice to get *97 (or eqivilent code)

This as I understand it is not a fault of snom, but a feature of
asterisk and the whole MWI protocol.  When asterisk signals the
phone to say it has voicemail (any phone) it sends in from an address
of [EMAIL PROTECTED].  the message text is basically that which pops up
on the bottom line of the display.

When you press the voicemail key, or even the soft voicemail key it
first tries to make contact with unknown as this helps ensure that
the right line acesseses its voicemail without the user having to be
aware of which line the voicemail is waiting for them on.

You have two choices, a change the address of the MWI indicator to
come from [EMAIL PROTECTED] on the asterisk box or add some lines in your
message-centre context that is similar to
exten = Unknown,1,Voicemail etc

Either of these will bring asterisk up to the level of the snoms features.

I have only one minor issue, and thats if I have several people
ringing into the phone, when I am not already on a call (all calls are
still in the setup phase) I can't choose by pressing the flashing
lights, I have to dump them using the soft no thanks or the hard x
key

You almost sound like you have a earlier firmware issue.  The latest
one is 3.60f

a direct link to the firmware is http://www.snom.com/download/share/

I tell a lie -the very latest firmware is 3.60h - as of the 4th May

Gents

Whilst I apreciate the sentiments regarding my question, if you are to
look at my track record of helping people - across in the majority
[EMAIL PROTECTED], AMP lists and to a lesser (but growing) extent
asterisk-user and asterisk-biz, its not up there with the super gurus,
but I am putting more back into the list.

I have asked my fair share of questions as well, (and will continue to
do so when needed).

I noticed that you didn't make these comments when people have talked
exclusivly about polycom or cisco hardware (as technically these are
not asterisk either)

There is a high technical aim to the list, there is also a community factor.  

I would however kindly ask that for the benifit of the list any
further discussions regarding this are directed to me personally, the
header information contains my email adress.

[Asterisk-Users] outbound proxy field in sip.conf

2005-05-11 Thread David John Walsh
I have been given the following settings for connecting to a voip
provider.  The names of the fields match my snom phone, and when
configured, the phone both makes and recives phonecalls without issue.

I am trying to put the same values in asterisk, but there seems to be
one field that doesn't seem to exist in asterisk - that of outbound
proxy

all suggestions welcome
SIP headings
account= user
password  = secret
registrar   = host  = registrar.provider.com
outbound proxy = ?? = nat.provider.com:5065

If I put in an extra field of port=5065 it doesn't register (in sip
show registry) with either of the above addresses in the host box. 
Putting registrar.provider.com in the register = string and
nat.provider.com in the host makes outbound calls fail, putting
registrar.provider.com in the host and nat.provider.com (with or
without the :5065) in the registrar doesn't allow incoming or outgoing
calls
putting reistrar.provider.com in both host and the register = string
allows outgoing but not incomming

firstly, what does the outbound proxy do?  secondly, can anyone advise
on settings for this senario? does asterisk have this concept in its
SIP client?

Thanks

[Asterisk-Users] high availibilty (heartbeats) - a good way to ensure automatic redundency?

2005-05-11 Thread David John Walsh
being from a telecoms background, the thought of a single asterisk box
solution (even in a low production environment of say 10 phones)
worries me slightly!

starting from say a base of [EMAIL PROTECTED], you would have several
MySQL databases, in addition to numerous config files.

I have looked at high availiblity solutions, and from a hardware
monitoring point of view, its relitivly straight forward, you have 2
(identical?) boxes, each with 2 network interfaces.  One of the
network interface cards on each box has the same IP address, there is
another cable that is sending a heartbeat message between the two
boxes, heart beat fails the other box brings up automatically the
interface.

I have used HA on firewalls, and as the equipment is propriertary you
talk to the master side, which pushes config and state to the slave,
in the same way telephone exchanges run 1 micro-instruction behind the
other.  Obviously howver if you have a PRI on the box, it will lose
its calls, IP could be more resilient.

asterisk as it stands isn't geared up for this push of state, so
leaving that to one side there are a few obvious questions, but
firstly my assumptions.

MySQL has some sort of master/slave database system built in, so that
config is ok.  AMP self generates the dynamic config, so a cron job to
reload the slave every few minuites is possible to keep that part in
sync

to my questions (sorry its dragged slightly).  How can the astdb (the
one that you type show database at the asterisk cli) be kept in sync??

is this the right way to design a warm standby system or is there an
already established method.

The wiki suggests HA, but doesn't specify how.  Googling doesn't seem
to find anything (I have been trying on and off for a couple of days
now)

Re: [Asterisk-Users] AreskiCC Install Problems

2005-05-11 Thread David John Walsh
I haven't done this for ages, but those errors if i recall mean that
you either haven't got postgres listening for the tcp connections, or
its being restricted by host based authentication

one of the files is something_hba.conf and the other is in the same directory,

in the HBA one, you have to set a line up for 127.0.0.1 to do
passwords.  In the other there is a #value tcp_connect=false.  You
have to unhash the value then change it to true (the line above talks
about ssh)

I will look at the servers tommorrow, it really has been months since
i did that.  The other issues is do you have pg_connect installed (and
again i cant for the life of me rember the package)

If no firmer response has come your way (its 23:00 here now) by
tommorow I will check the settings on the server in the office

I have a dual xeon 3.06 with 3Gb of RAM - it handles easily a single

Call recording, queues and other funky stuff runs on this box as well

[Asterisk-Users] What do you name yours

2005-05-10 Thread David John Walsh
Hello list

we are installing 2 new servers (to run asterisk) shortly, for a
stand alone service.  Ignoring our current naming convention, we'd
like to name them something.. but we are not sure what.

a consideration is that on the screens of the phones it shows

I have raised the same point (and requested a working example from
snom) in the same way.

The white paper does suggest this (As both you and Andrew Latham point
out) but does indeed seem to be ineffective.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] snom mass deployment (probably off topic)

2005-05-06 Thread David John Walsh
Nils

Firstly to the flash issue, if you are on a DHCP server this seems to
work.  If you are not then my particular handset does indeed lose its
config - or rather it invokes the start up wizard which does not
have the last settings to confirm, so to all intents it apears to have
lost its settings (although I now freely admit if you give it an IP
address and go into the web interface, all is not lost) - therefor my
appologies on that, however I would prefer to see the last settings in
the setup wizard.

With regards to my second issue, regarding creative dns records
locally.  You state in your white paper, that you need to invoke
options 66 and 67 for the snom device to check an update server other
than snom's its self.
Prehaps again it is my error, however looking at ethereal packet
traces, the phone is supplied the dhcp options, but still attemps to
goto snom.com - would you be kind enough to supply sample config for a
dhcpd server, so I can be sure of the setup

Other than those two minor observations - I do indeed think that the
phone is one of the best in the market place, and I have bench tested
most user agents to date.

Thank you for your time on this matter.

 Hello,
 
 to prevent further rumores and wrong facts about our phones:
 
 All our phones, and this includes the 360 as well, do store their settings on
 the flash. After the settings are stored once, you can leave the phone as
 long as you want without power, and it will come up with old settings
 whenever you restart it. If this is not the case the person which is facing
 the problem should contact the snom support to get this sorted out.
 
 Regarding the real topic: did you already read our white-papers about
 mass-deployment and setting up snom phones?
 http://www.snom.com/white_papers.html
 You do not have to mess around with faked DNS responses. If the phone is
 getting a settings server via DHCP, it will never contact snom.com (expcept
 you say so). The phone just falls back to snom.com as a default setting, in
 case it cant find a setting server locally. But in case: you can even turn
 off that the phone tries to load any settings from any server.

  Hi David,
 
  First, thanks for the reply to my questions about the Snom 360.  I may have
  a few followup questions when I get a little more time.
 
  As for the 360 getting the configuration directly from Snom's servers, I
  find that very backwards.  What if your phones have no gateway to the
  internet?  It sounds like they are working around not having any flash
  memory, but it's a poor workaround.  Your idea of using DNS to fool it into
  going to your servers is a good one.  I assume you'll just put in a mapping
  for provisioning.snom.com or just snom.com in your DNS server to the IP of
  your web server.
 
  If I understand correctly, you will be able to create an
  /snom360/snom360.php script on your web server, which you would then like
  to redirect to the static html files in the /snom directory.  Assuming the
  Snom supports redirects, the PHP code is as simple as:
 
  ?php header(Location: /snom/snom360-$_GET[mac].html) ?
 
  If the phone doesn't support redirects, it gets a little complex, in that
  the script will need to open the file from the filesystem and return it
  directly.
 
  If I misunderstood or I didn't make sense, I'll be happy to try again.
 
  Thanks,

For PRI's is ECT / CD the default behavior of asterisk, or is there
code changes (and what are they) to make these features work.

In about 4 weeks, we are getting a test PRI, the quad-span digium

The behavior we want is not to tie 2 circuits up in the event of
transfer, but to keep asterisk out of the loop and pass it back to the
upstream switch.

Thank you for any comments.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Opinions on Cisco 7960G, Polycom IP-600, and Snom 360

2005-05-05 Thread David John Walsh
Dan

I've had a snom 360 on the bench for about 10 days now.  I too have
become dispondent with Cisco's licencing structure

The snom 360 provides the majority of the high end Cisco features you
would use 99% percent of the time, it doesn't have the flexibity of
the on-demand buttons around the screen, but neither does it have a
(IMHO) over complex settings file that the ciscos and polycoms seem to
suffer.

As it stands today, there are a few minor bugs in the firmware (sadly
noted in the username / password login wizard) but nothing show
stopping, which I feel is impressive given the phone is only a few
weeks old (to the public).

I have just posted another post asking for help regarding its
provisioning (i'm useless at php), as it doesn't keep its settings for
more than a few minuites without power

At its price point, it seems a bargain for its power and flexibilty. 

I have been sent a pre-release of its manual (in its very final draft)
which should be freely availible within the month.

If it had the abilty to save its settings unless you did a reset, I
would recomend it beyond doubt, as it stands its going to take a lot
to beat it

The softphone (if you have a windows pc) gives you a feel, but doesn't
do it justice.

If you have a few php skills, you help woluld be greatly apreicated -
please see my other post :)

 the Cisco stuff but like you, I can't stand paying extra even if it is
 just a few bucks here and there.
 
 Polycoms can have a curve for figuring out the config files but once you
 do it is a breeze.   The speakerphones are excellent and the features
 work with * with no real headaches.  The IP500 (or even an IP300) is
 sufficient for most users so save some bucks if you don't really need
 the mini-browser and extra display lines of the 600.  An IP 500 can take
 plenty of concurrent calls and the features are excellent.
 
 I will let the others speak about SNOM and Cisco though I can say they
 are well respected.  My preference is just Polycom.  If you get the
 Polys let me know if you have trouble and I will assist you with config

 Hello,
 
 We are planning to replace our current PBX with an Asterisk / SIP
 solution, and are now trying to decide which phones to get.  My first
 thought was the Cisco 7960G, but the Cisco licensing scheme irritates me
 enough that I'll probably end up going with either the Polycom IP-600 or
 Snom 360.
 
 If anyone has any opinions of these phones, especially in comparison to
 each other, I would really appreciate hearing them.  Is there a reason
 you would recommend one of these phones over the others, or any reason
 why you would steer people away from a particular model?
 
 This is for a small office, with only 8-10 phones.  A receptionist and a
 couple of office staff will be responsible for watching the office
 line(s), and three or four support reps will be watching a technical
 support queue.  Our environment dictates that we move around a lot, and
 not necessarily be tied to our workstations, so being able to take calls
 from any given phone is an important consideration.  In the same vein,
 knowing the status of other staff (i.e. if they are on a call or idle)
 would be very useful, and is something we are used to with our current
 setup.

[Asterisk-Users] Taking asterisk out of the media path - SIP - how is it achieved

Hello

How do you make asterisk stay out of the media stream?  i.e once I set
a call up between two parties, even if asterisk fell over the call
would continue (in the same way a HLR on a mobile network works)

I understand that many features will be lost if I do this, but all
that I need seems to be supported by the end user hardware.

incidentally I have tried canreinvite=yes, doesn't seem to work.  I
have also tried removing any flags in the dial() command

Thank you for any information.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] how to use dialparties.agi

2005-04-27 Thread David John Walsh
Christian

As I understand it

After a user dials an extension number, Asterisk calls dialparties.agi

dialparties.agi checks the asterisk database (show database [from
cli]) for data matching items like Call Wating (CW) Call Forward (CF)
etc.

If one is present (in a defiend order) then rather than dialing,
dialparties invokes that option.

If none of the options are set, dialparties returns control back to a
near regular dial string, and Dial takes over and places the call as
the A party was expecting.



Using defined etensions (by default in AMP they are the regular
American ones), the B party (callee) can activate these features.

What basically happens here is a database put command is used to put
the value in the asterisk database and then play a recorded
anouncement to the user before hanging the call up.  for CF its a
little more complicated as you might have to specify the B number and
the C number, but essentially it puts the data in the database and
confirms it

Now the only thing that is missing is a web / gui provsioning system -
so that admins can take the features off again, else its a databse
del command at the terminal

the best way to see this in action is to set some things like CW (*73
i think) and then do a show database at the CLI - you will also get
back other things like the SIP registery

Ronald,

I am more than happy to give you the 3 suggestions, when you
appologise to the list.  Yes getting things to work can be
frustrating, and sometimes the answers are not as helpful as you'd
like, but I do refuse to help people who get irate on a public list

Especially when the outburst is to those who spend hours creating
programs that help many many people, those people who have talent
beyond my wildest dreams.

Please remember all advice on here is of a volentary nature, a lot
from people who could earn their crust providing this advice for a
charge, they don't, they spend hours helping and most of the time we
get it working - together

Now, take a deep breath, do the gentlemanly thing and lets see if we
can fix your issue.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] SIP behind IPTables/NAT

2005-04-26 Thread David John Walsh
First off 

Isn't RTP a TCP protocol? or am I over tierd again?

Secondly - unless several conditions are met (canreinvite=yes being
one of them) it (asterisk) will still proxy the connection. - Check
your dial statement for T's ie T and t - the wiki has a full list.

 Hi All,
 
 Can anyone help me out here? I'm having some issues configuring my IPTables

 Here are my current rules:
 
 #Inbound SIP to HERMES
 $IPTABLES -A PREROUTING -t nat -i $EXTIF -p udp --dport 5060 -j DNAT --to 
 192.168.123.4:5060

 $IPTABLES -A FORWARD -i $EXTIF -p udp -d 192.168.123.4 --dport 1:2 -j 
 ACCEPT
 
 When I dial out via my SIP provider I appear to get a partial connection (the 
 phone rings... that's a good sign) but no audio. Inbound I just get a busy 
 and asterisk sees nothing. SIP SHOW REGISTRY shows me as registered with the 
 remote host. Something else that worries me is that I'm seeing the good old 
 Attempting native bridge... message when the destination picks up which, to 
 my understanding, shouldn't happen since I have canreinvite=no set for both 
 my SIP phone and SIP provider.
 
 Make sense to anyone?

In your channel config  (eg sip.conf) you need to call them things like

[companya-200]
[companyb-200]

Then in extensions.conf

[companya]
exten = 200,1,Dial(sip/companya-200)

[companyb]
exten = 200,1,Dial(sip/companyb-200)

Hope that helps

 It is possible to configure my sip.conf (or iax.conf) like this? If it

[Asterisk-Users] Warm standby boxes - keeping config syncronised?

2005-04-26 Thread David John Walsh
Ok probably not strictly an asterisk question.

I have an asterisk box, which is running some non-critical telephones
in our organisation, and if it fails it fails.

However comming from a telecoms background I always want to make
things recoverable quickly.  Since I have little budget, and down time
isn't an issue my thoughts are as folllows

2 servers with 2 NIC's each, one nic for managment, one for traffic. 
1 NIC on each machine has the same IP address, but only one is plugged
into the network at any one time.

2 PRI's that are plugged into the machine that is live to traffic.

Apart from the managment NIC having different IP addresses they are
configured identically

If I make a change to the in-service server, how do I automagically
get the other server to take a copy of it?

I'm not a linux man by trade, so if you say set up master / slave
would you be kind enough to suggest an aplication and how it would be
implimented.

Thanks for any ideas

 Hi all,
 
 After many complaints (including car manufacturers saying the american
 prompts are unexceptable, EEEK) I started on a quest for real English
 asterisk prompts.
 
 The only one I have found is here 
 http://www.g7ltt.com/VoIP/vmfiles.html
 And no nothing else on the WIKI looked helpful (e.g. only American voice
 actors etc)
 
 These prompts are actually a lot better than the standard prompts,
 according to my customer.
 But unfortunately they arent perfect.  For example all of the queue
 prompts are missing as well as a number of other prompts.
 Personally I like Allisons sultry tones telling me that shes doing her
 utmost to connect my call :-)
 
 Couple of questions:
 
 1) Does anyone else have english prompts they can share / point me to?
 2) Does Mark (the kind guy that made the above) post on this list and is
 there any possiblity of adding some of the most needed prompts?  Failing
 that I will give him an email and see what the chances are.
 3) Failing everything else would anyone be interested in sharing the
 cost and getting some professional (female?) recordings done for all of
 the standard asterisk prompts?
 
 Currently I'm facing the possiblity of having three different people
 talking to the caller before they are put through.
 Company  recording warning, UK transfer message and then American queue
 announcements. :-S
 So this has suddenly become a fairly urgent matter.
 
 thanks in advance for any help / advice on this

 P.S. Sorry for the double post Asterisk-UK listers but as soon as I sent

Re: [Asterisk-Users] What small PC can take 8 FXS + 8 FXO cards

2005-04-25 Thread David John Walsh
If i'm understanding this correctly, you shouldn't need 16 ports.

If you buy 2 TDM400P cards, and load them up with 8 FXS (4 on each card)
then   buy 2 TDM400P cards, and load them up with 8 FXO (4 on each card)

This should reduce your PCI count down to a more manageable 4 cards

In total your shopping list would be

4 TDM400P PCI cards
8 FXS Daughter cards
8 FXO daughter cards

hope that helps

[Asterisk-Users] using goto to do selective dialing

2005-04-25 Thread David John Walsh
If I set up a context, which has lots of extensions eg

[ext-local]
exten = 3000,1,Dial(SIP/3000)
exten = 3001,1,Dial(SIP/3001)

.
exten = 3999,1,Dial(SIP/3999)

(I know the syntax is wrong, and it probably is not the best way to achive it)

then in another context, I use a goto like so

[selected-3000-numbers]
exten = _32XX,1,Goto(ext-local,${EXTEN},1)
exten = _34XX,1,Goto(ext-local,${EXTEN},1)

Will this allow me to only dial (from a phone in
selected-3000-numbers) the numbers starting 32 and 34??

Also is my goto syntax right?

Thanks for your input

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Re: Hotel billing in IPSwitchBoard

2005-04-23 Thread David John Walsh
Taking this idea a little further.

(I apreciate there may be legal issues with this request)

Would it be possible for extensions to be tagged, so that if they make
and / or recive a call the call is automatically recorded each and
every time, at the end of the call the file is closed

I would imagine, that its either set in the context menu of the
extention (ie right click, select always record on active) or in the
extensions list.

A supervise (either on demand or always) would be a great help as well.

  Hi,
 
  As mentioned before, how about being able to search and replay recordings

[Asterisk-Users] Recording Queue agents

2005-04-21 Thread David John Walsh
Hi all

We have a psudo-switchboard in the offices, with receptionists who
login into the switchboard queue, all is well.

I have been asked to look into the possibilty of recording all the
agents conversations.

Legal issues aside:

Can anyone give me any pointers as to how this might be achived.  The
basic rules are:

We only want the conversation, otherwise i'd just monitor all thru the
wait period :)

when the agent transfers it off, the recording needs to stop.

-

Am I opening a can of worms here, or is it as simple as setting a flag
in one of the commands?

All the agents phones are SIP, the queue is an internal extention (so
that all can use the switchboard) so just monitoring the trunks is out
as well (sadly)

Any help (even if its just ideas or sample code) would be greatly apreciated.

We run [EMAIL PROTECTED] - to keep things simple (0.6 in production) (0.9
on my test machine)

thanks

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk@Home 0.9 released

2005-04-13 Thread David John Walsh
Would it be possible in a future version to have the extensions have
the beginings of class of service, in a similar way to incoming calls.

e.g if a user is not logged on define what happens (route to operator etc)
define if a user can access outgoing lines (and possibly by time of day)

I understand that this may be more of an AMP issue and not relivent to
a lot of offices, but in our charity, we offer a counter service, and
having phones in the public area needs that kind of lock down

At the moment I fudge it with changes to the context, but I am hoping
that one day it becomes more user managable so that others can keep
the system running in my absence.

Thank you for the great product
David

[Asterisk-Users] Supervisor monitor / barge in - automatically on call setup?

2005-04-12 Thread David John Walsh
I'm aware of the legal issues surrounding my request, but any help
technically would be greatly apreciated

On site we have a fully staffed hospital and fire service (its a
temporary event for a childrens charity) and an onsite 911 number. 
If a user dials the number, they goto the emergency crew, and the use
of monitor helps to record the call - thats the easy bit

I'm in the UK, and its an offence not to pass a 999 (our 911) call out
to a 999 centre but with the sheer numbers involved, we have a few
choices, only one of which is suitable.

If a user inadvertantly dials 999 I would like to pass it to the true
999 and at the same time dial either a special phone, or all the
phones in the emergency centre.  Upon the centre answering it, it
silently monitors the call between the user and the 999 centre.  If
for whatever reason the centre needs to barge in they can, prehaps
even silencing the origninal user.

We have a 2 min response time to anywhere on site, the offical user
services have about 22, but we know and expect that in a moments panic
someone will dial the number automatically

Any assistance as to how this can be performed will be greatly apreciated.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Version 0.80 of IPS released

It gets very annoying after a few minuites and with our reception
being very very busy it could get quiet sickly

[Asterisk-Users] 499 Error on X-lite / asterisk setup

2005-04-11 Thread David John Walsh
I have a fairly simple asterisk setup - [EMAIL PROTECTED] 0.8 in SIP.conf:

Extentions 200 - 204 - username, password, callerid all same as extension

Extensions.conf - default build from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 0.8

In x-lite all spaces are either the IP address of the asterisk box or
the extension number.

On loading of x-lite, asterisk pipes up that the extension is seen

dialling anything from x-lite gets to asterisk (seen with sip debug)
however nothing comes up in the console (verbose 4) and 2 seconds
later x-lite returns an error of 499 Not Acceptable Here

In the console I get :

Re: [Asterisk-Users] 499 Error on X-lite / asterisk setup

2005-04-11 Thread David John Walsh
I recived 2 files from Ben.

Two things I forgot to mention : 

performing a SIP show peer xxx (where xxx is the etension number)
shows the UA as being xlite and the right IP address, so i'm fairly
sure its registered properly

xlite is on a mac, but on previous setups i've never needed to change
more than the config.

incidentally, without wishing to offend, the names of the files don't
seem to be right.

Ah ha!

Thats is Robert, you are a genius!!!

Actually that gives a larger issue - it doesn't take a lot for a user
to click the codecs off and then its a call to the help desk.

I am not intending to use xlite in production, but it does beg the
question can it be forced??

[Asterisk-Users] Hardware dimesioning issues

2005-04-09 Thread David John Walsh
Hello

I am in the process of putting together a short term calling card
solution that is rapidly deployable for charity events, and would
apreciate some guidence on hardware dimensioning for the solution

I have a test system running on an old P3 laptop, so in principle the
solution works : It is configured as follows:

Latest CVS of asterisk (well as of about 3 weeks ago)
AreskiCC as the card solution
Latest RPM of PostgreSQL
Latest RPM of apache
Latest RPM of php / pgphp
4 SIP accounts for the phones
1 SIP account with 4 concurrent calls for the lines
Sipura 1001's as the ATA, DTMF phones on the end.

It has a simple extension.conf

User dials  - runs DeadAGI(Areskicc.php)
User goes on to enter PIN, phone number and then is connected (subject
to credit and b-number being availible)

The only difference between this test system and the production system
is the number of lines.  I need it to be able to run 80 extensions and
therefor 80 lines (presented by SIP)

How large should the processor, memory etc be - could anyone suggest a
Dell / similar system that would be good for our needs.

I don't need any zaptel hardware, as the places this is going to (its
intended to be movable - not mobile per-se but movable) will only have
outside internet connections, a local SIP provider is helping us which
is why its SIP both sides.

Thank you for your time on this matter

[Asterisk-Users] Multiplexing (or what ever the term is) FXO ports into a Trunk

2005-04-05 Thread David John Walsh
Hi all,

For an event we are doing, we have been donated several analogue PSTN
lines and an 8 port FXO bridge.

On the bridge, we have set up each of the ports to work on the SIP
protocol, and have referenced them, line1, line2, line3 etc for their
username / password.

I have placed the config in sip.conf, and they all work fine, inbound
and out - for testing anyway!

How do I get asterisk, to treat these 8 lines as one 8 call limit
trunk?  From a users perspective, all he/she needs to dial is
9 (where x's the number) to get any of the 8 outside lines?

Sure I could hardcode somthing in each part of the extensions.conf,
but if this trial is sucsessful, the number of lines may increase, and
it would be nice to define the array once as it were.

(I am aware that most of my troubles would go away if I used a more
intelligent termination such as ISDN, but for several issues, its not
possible)

Thank you for your time on this matter.

Nabeel,

Could you expand on your comments, or provide a link / paste in a
sample extensions.conf to show how this would be set up?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Detecting when a called mobile is not reachable?

2005-04-03 Thread David John Walsh
This is traditional accross the mobile / cell providers, and there is
no real way around it.

Background : The only way to ensure that a mobile is truly there is to
page the mobile, normally based on the Mobile Switching Centre (MSC)
coverage area, and thats after looking up on the subscirbers HLR, its
a lot of signalling for a call not to connect, and a cost to the
operator.

With the rate that mobile operators charge the A party for the call,
they get a percentage of the call from the originating operator, so
they get cash as soon as it connects, and therefor its in their
interest to connect that call, even if its to an announcement shelf.

Its one of the reasons they invented voicemail

If there is a way around it, don't shout it too loudly

 Hello all,
 
 I was hoping to be able to call a mobile and if it is un-reachable for
 whatever reason (e.g. switched off) then I was expecting an unobtainable
 response that would be detected in Asterisk. It seems that the operator
 (Virgin in UK) imedately completes the call and plays an automated
 message before clearing the call. Does anyone know if there a way of
 avoiding the call completion for mobiles? I have noticed that Sipgate
 charge for a calls to an unavailable mobile regardless.
 
 Thanks.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] How to number extensions - Which way is best?

2005-02-08 Thread David John Walsh

Here's a thought. A user is dialing a local number (local for them) 
but accidently dials it 1+.. Is it LD?

No, quite simply each of the prefix digits in the local exchange, would 
route back to the same routing case, which would be setup with the same 
charging record, effectively nulling the additional (non required) 
prefix

it would be really nice, if asterisk where possible kept the same 
naming conventions that have been used in traditional telephony since 
its inception. [For clarifies sake this previous sentence was totally 
tongue in cheek, with a tad of truth with no offense intended]

It depends on the country!
At the end of the day, as long as the string is decipherable within the 
data transcript within the switch, ending in an exgress route the 
dialed digits are valid.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Sipua SPA-2000 and liong delay after dialling number

2005-01-28 Thread David John Walsh
The delay is a time out.  The SPA does not know how many numbers it 
is expecting before it has a complete number for your system.  The 
invite message is sent as a single message to asterisk containing the 
whole number string, as apposed to each number individually.

In simple terms you have 2 options at your disposal :
a)  encorage users to adopt pressing gate / pound / hash (the noughts 
and crosses board above 9 on the keypad - i cant belive this keyboard 
doesn't have the symbol ;)  at the end of the last digit - this in the 
sipura (like 99% of telephony devices) is treated as a send / 
termination / enter instruction and sends the instruction (invite 
message) to asterisk immediatly

Note this only applies if your using a touch-tone / dtmf (dual-tone 
multi-frequency) enabled hand set.

b) edit the dial plan of the sipura, to instruct the device of your 
dial plan, so that it understands how your system is configured.  It is 
sensitve enough to understand that numbers like 999 / 112 / 911 are 
only 3 digits when national dialing is a greater length.

For assitance with that google for spa-2000 user guide, which contains 
examples or contact me with further information of your set up

Hope this helps.

When I use an analog phone connected to a Sipura SPA-2000 it takes

Very annoying especially if you are connecting an intercom to it.

Can I change this behaviour and do I need to look at * config or the 
config of the SPA-2000?

Thanks!

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Re: Interesting bellster issue

2005-01-26 Thread David John Walsh
Surely no other route would be tried in this instance, for as far as 
all devices are concerned the A party and B party were connected 
correctly, albeit in this instance to an announcement shelf device.

I agree that the A party has a right to be annoyed at the loss of 
credit, but this has been tradition within telco's for as long as i can 
remember, as a call channel costs significantly more bandwidth than 
signaling

The only time you don't lose credit (or get billed in traditional 
terms) is when the announcement shelf is contained within the same 
network as the A party.

Why do you think that providers tend to offer free voicemail, to ensure 
every call is connected and further more get the call in the other 
direction

It is however an interesting way of accruing free credits on the 
network.

Food for thought

that another route is used (on extension +331, France,
Paris). However, the second route tried by bellster ended up with

such a Zap line.
The problematic route is 179.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Mediatrix voip gateway 1124 and 1204 in UK setting

2005-01-24 Thread David John Walsh
Peter
One thing to consider if you only have 3 PSTN lines is the Sipura 
SPA-3000 (you would need 3 of them, one for each line)

We have 2 PSTN lines at our scout campsite, and they work very well, as 
well as providing a simple power outage solution.

They retail about £80 + the VAT
I can supply more information once you have looked at the devices.

Hello!
We are located in the UK, and we are planning to replace our old pbx 
with an asterisk based pbx. For outgoing calls our present pbx is 
connected to three PSTN lines which all have the same number. 
Internally, the pbx caters for quite a few extensions, and each 
extension can make outbound phone calls. Only very rarely does our 
call volume exceed three simultaneous connections (inside to inside 
plus inside to outside).

We have looked into the issue of connecting the phones and the outside 
lines to the system.

For the fxo connectivity we want to stick with the three PSTN lines, 
because they worked for us and we don't see a need to upgrade to ISDN. 
The asterisk system will be also connected to the internet anyway so 
we can perform VOIP calls.

For the fxs connectivity we want to re-use the old telephone wiring 
and provide standard two-wire telephones. Putting in IP phones would 
mean a massive installation effort, as we would have to put an entire 
new computer network in place - plus many IP phones constantly 
connected to mains, plus admin headaches, plus security issues and so 
on. The two wire solution seems the best solution for our setting.

We have looked into using a channel bank for the analog conectivity, 
and we are currently in contact with Carrier Access to purchase a new 
Adit 600 unit with space for 48 extensions. We cannot provide fxo 
connectivity via the channel bank because the fxo card from CA seems 
not to be EU approved. One downside of the channel bank is that we 
need a special T1 card for it to operate with the asterisk pbx. Also, 
channel banks seems to be a particular US concept, so we would have 
difficulties to get replacement parts, if something breaks.

Recently I heard of the alternative solution of a voip gateway, and 
the particular units I have seen are the Mediatrix 1124 for fxs 
connection and the Mediatrix 1204 for the fxo connection. Both units 
support the SIP protocol, so it should be possible to connect them to 
the asterisk PC via standard network connection. Mediatrix seems to 
have resellers in Europe as well, so it might be possible that their 
devices are Europe approved as well.

Question:
* Does anyone have any experience with these units in a UK setting?
* For the 1124: Does it work with standard UK two wire phones? Are 
there impedance problems
(especially concerning echo problems)?
Is the audio quality sufficient? Are they transparent to the 
asterisk system, i.e.
does each fxs port look like a separate IP phone to the 
asterisk system?

* For the 1204: Would it be approved for connection into the UK PSTN 
(The prospectus from Mediatrix
didn't say anything about regulatory approvals)? Can they 
initiate outside calls / receive
incoming calls or are there problems (signalling compatible 
with UK PSTN)? Are they
transparent to the asterisk system, i.e.does each fxo port 
look like a separate IP phone
to the asterisk system?

I do realize that these questions are quite broad, but do appreciate 
any info. Thank you very much for your consideration.
