I have yet another issue here. This time its with DTMF (again). Ok the setup is as follows: We have a few Grandstream BT 200 phones and a few X-Lite phones. When dialing out to, say a bank, with the Grandstream the bank complains that it is unable to detect our DTMF tones. However when I do the same with the X-Lite it detects it correctly. Now I am in the process of implementing authentication into the system. This on the other hand detects Grandstream DTMF but not X-Lite DTMF. The Grandstream phones have been set up to send their DTMF via sip info (I set it up that way in order to use the *2 transfer feature). I have tried Zoiper and when I set it up to also send DTMF via sip info, the asterisk detects the DTMF correctly. Can anyone tell me what I can do to enable the DTMF to work? Thanks in advance.

[asterisk-users] Asterisk SNOM and DTMF
For information purposes: We had problems with proper dtmf recognition. Asterisk Version: SVN-branch-1.4-r114083 SNOM FW: 7.1.30 With the above constellation dtmf tones sometimes worked and sometimes not. Already a few hours and much testings later, we found and used the configuration parm relaxdtmf. In the past we diddn't use this parameter at all without any dtmf problems. Perhaps a silent change in asterisk's way of handling dtmf? With relaxdtmf=yes in sip.conf's general context, dtmf tones seem to work reliable. Not shure about other magic side-effects, but it helped. In the hope of saving someone else a few hours...

[asterisk-users] Parked calls and callerid
Hi list, sorry if this has been discussed in the past and is also posted twice to the list, but I couldn't find anything wise about it. Since we had some trouble with the builtin hold function of some (all?) SNOM 320/360 phones, we decided to use the call parking feature in asterisk instead. Assume, a call comes in with CALLERID(num) 1234567 for extension 10. Extension 10 parks this call into 801, dials extension 11 and asks if she/he could fetch the call on parkposition 801. Extension 11 dials 801 and get's the call and can only see 801 in the phones display. So, how could we get the original CALLERID(num) 1234567 back in the phones display? Using a channel variable or use astdb comes in mind, but what is the best way to achieve this? In traditional pbx systems this seems to be a standard function.

März 2008 23:23 An: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Betreff: Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk parking hold and transferdigittimeout It seems that the dialplan comes into play. If your parking lot is 700, and you have any extension patterns that COULD begin with that, then asterisk will wait to make SURE you're not typing 700: Let's say that 700 is my parking lot extension. exten = _NXXNXX,1,blahblahblah This could match 7005551212, so asterisk waits around to make sure I'm not trying to find any more buttons before it accepts that I meant 700. As an example, if your parking lot extension was **, then asterisk could be pretty darn sure that that won't match anything else, and will accept it directly as a number to transfer too. SOLUTION ### Thanks for the tip, it was really the dialplan. In our * installations we have an outgoing context, named capi-out starting with this: [capi-out] exten = _XXX.,1,DoSomethingReallyImpressive() ... After I changed it to: [capi-out] include = notfall ; special context for 3-digit emergency numbers exten = _.,1,DoSomethingReallyImpressive() ... [notfall] exten = _11X,1,Dial(CAPI/ISDN3/${EXTEN}/b,60,tT) ... BTW these includes are really magic, cause sometimes they don't do what you (especially I) expext. Please take a look at this: EXAMPLE ### ;DIALPLAN ... [capi-in] include = capi-in-sub exten = _955623XX,1,DoSomethingReallyImpressive() ... [capi-in-sub] exten = 9556230,1,DoSomethingReallyImpressive() exten = 95562315,1,DoSomethingAnybodyWouldExpect() ... Now, what happens: Call for 9556230 reaches capi-in, is redirected through include statement to capi-in-sub and executed. So far so fine, expected behaviour. Call for 95562315 reaches capi-in and is executed direct, the include directive isn't executed at all! Why? Through the include statement, asterisk has to look first in capi-in-sub, there it should find this extension: exten = 95562315,1,DoSomethingAnybodyWouldExpect() ... and follow the dialplan under capi-in-sub since a valid extension was found. What's wrong, any ideas?

What's wrong, any ideas? This is a very popular misconception regarding include statements, so let me try to reiterate how includes work. When a call comes into a particular context, Asterisk looks for the following items: 1) Exact matches in the current context. If a match is found, Asterisk will not continue searching. 2) Pattern matches in the current context. If at least one pattern match is found that matches the dialed extension, Asterisk will not continue searching (even if a better match is included . 3) Any switch = statements. These can be used for remote dialplan lookups, realtime dialplan lookups, DUNDi, etc. If Asterisk finds at least one match, it will not continue searching. 4) Any included contexts. These will be followed in order, and for each included context, this same list will be applied. In your example above, you somehow assumed that the included context would be searched, even though Asterisk already found a match in the current context. Hi Jared, thanks for your general explanations on using contexts and includes.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk parking hold and transferdigittimeo ut
According to this post: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-dev/2007-April/027281.html Includes are tacked on to the end of the dialplan they are mentioned in, not where they stand. So, since your exten = _955623XX,1,DoSomethingReallyImpressive() matches, asterisk doesn't need to even bother checking the included context. Moj Hi Moj, thanks for pointing this out.

Hi, can anybody comment on patton inalp voice gateways and Asterisk? How good is there echo cancellation? How good is the interop with Asterisk? I am especially looking for reports on 4630 and 45xx series with BRI. Hi JP, we used the Smartnodes 1400 and the Smartnodes 2300 in the past. Echo canceler is great and they work really rock stable. Good Support from Patton/Inalp was included. You get many functions for your money, (integrated DSL-Router,QOS,SIP/H323 Support etc.). But eventuallly you pay for functions, you don't really need. I found the BRI Cards from Gerdes Primux2S0/Te/NT and Primux4S0/Te/NT work great and you have to configure only one device, your Asterisk. Another benefit of ISDN cards I see in handling the ISDN-Ports direct in Asterisk, in your dialplan. This gives you a more flexible way of call routing. BTW, multiple Primux Cards in one system are supported! On the other hand, you have some kind of backup by using the Smartnodes, if your asterisk dies.

RE: [asterisk-users] NAT and externip problem or bug
posting the relevant parts of your config (sip.conf, extensions.conf) could help to solve your problem. Guido I've recently got asterisk running on it's own pc inside my firwewall. Mostly it's working fine, but there is one silly problem I can't figure out. (For reference, Asterisk is the latest stable version as of last weekend 14th July. All connectivity is SIP or IAX). I initially had 'externip' set to my public IP. I have the appropriate 5000 range ports forwarded to the asterisk PC and external calls seem OK. The 'local' phones are a mixture of Sipura boxes and softphones. Problem: No or one-way audio in internal calls. Reason: Asterisk appears to be using the 'externip' address for all SIP devices, regardless of their NAT setting. Once a call starts, some softphones change the address they are responding to use the external IP rather than the asterisk PCs local IP on the same subnet... I have tried all NAT options and spent quite a while reading everything I can find about sip.conf, but I can't so far find any way of changing this behaviour. All the internal phones work fine if I comment out the externip line, but then the connections outside the firewall are likely to have problems. Is there any way of configuring externip on a per-device basis, or should it only have effect on NATed devices? ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Snom firmwares suck --additional datapoint to consider
I looked long and hard at the LAN and it was basically narrowed down to the switches. In this smaller install, several cheapo Dlink ($30) switches de-aggregate a Cisco Catalyst switch. What I noticed was that any phone plugged direcly into the Catalyst did *not* lock up or reboot. Any phone plugged into the crap switches experienced the lockup. So now we are down to the cheap switches themselves. We are nuking the Dlink switches and replacing them with 3com workgroup switches, same as what we use in the large install to good effect, and I fully expect the problem to dissapear.

First, you could use a softphone like sjphone or X-Lite. If the problem is still there, pull any card from your server and try from internal (sip) extension to another internal extension. Also have a closer look on your nic. only some ideas to isolate the problem... hope it helps a little Regards Guido The beeps are not DTMF tones (at least they don't sound like it). It sounds more like the system is trying to compensate for something or adjusting something. There is a beep, sometimes several, or maybe one or 2 in a row, and it can be faint, or loud, or whatever, but is always the same pitch and tone. Sometimes it is accompanied with loud talkback to the earpiece. I'm going nuts, and cannot in good conscience, install or recommend this to anyone till I can resolve this. It has happened with 2 separate installs of *, with different hardware, different packages installed (one is * 1.2.4 with freepbx, the other was * 1.0 with nothing), and different digium hardware. The only thing that was the same is the Polycom phones, and SBC as a provider for the POTS lines...

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Snom 360 problems
Anyone have a Snom they're happy with? How did you manage that? :) I have a system of: Asterisk 1.2.3 2 Wildcard TDM400P Rev I and E/F 1 Snom 360 + sidecar ~15 Sipura/Linsys SPA-841 ~15 Grandstream 101 Everything (currently) is on the same network, not a router to be seen between any two. Also everything, except the snom, is working sweetly. The main problem is ECHO.. awful echo and only on the Snom. When using a Zap line or to another sip phone. I've tweaked the * for echo and managed to only create echo and piss everyone else off, pounded the settings in the Snom trying to find anything, and updated the firmware to Application-Version:snom360-SIP 5.2 Rootfs-Version:snom360 jffs2 v3.36 after noticing a changelog that sounded like it may have related to echo. Not even a slight reduction in echo so far. A second serious problem is Call join. Even with Call join on Xfer (2 calls) OFF if the user is doing a transfer of one call when a second starts ringing the 2 callers get bridged, no transfer. Really nice, now I have two customers talking to each other with no clue what's going on and neither gets who they were trying to reach. Any ideas on what I can try next? This firmware works well for us: snom360-SIP 4.1 available here: http://snom.com/download/share/snom360-4.1-SIP-j.bin No echo and overall voice quality is excellent. Did you check the codecs on the snom and on asterisk (sip.conf)? Is Silence Suppression off on the snom? If you would post your config (under settings on the snom) we could have a closer look in the problem.

Mediastreams has developed their product e-phone, which we could test a couple of months ago. Their Outlook Integration is really great: - see missed calls in inbox - right click a contact or missed call entry to dial - starting outlook, registers the extension in the system (on asterisk-server ?!) - incoming call pops up, transfer it with one click to voicemail or other extension - Managing Call Groups within outlook - Managing voicemail - Recording of calls ...

Perhaps, these guys with the power to code things well, should work - more - together on an Outlook Integration. My experiences with asterisk in short are, that the server-apps are running really stable, many features are developed, tested and made there way to the stable version.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Hotel billing in IPSwitchBoard
This seems to be exactly the application I was looking for :-). Since I'm working on a project where accounting and billing (http and voip traffic) is an issue, I'm glad to read that there will be a solution within a reasonable GUI. While dealing with squid and the great Squid2MYSQL script - used for Accounting and Billing - from Eugene V. Chernyshev [EMAIL PROTECTED], I wasn't shure about the udp traffic. A time based Billing seems to be a good solution. Keep on going with your great work on IPSwitchboard. Guido Hecken I am currently working on implementing Hotel Billing in IPSwitchBoard. The idea is that a receptionist in a hotel can just right click an extension button and choose Account; IPS will now calculate the call charges made from that extension and show all calls and charges on a form. The receptionist now has the option to close the account which will reset the account. I will add a table for editing call charges, and there will be a possibility to add a fee for connection charges and also an option to charge calls per xx seconds and to add/subtract a percentage to all calls. I will add a family/key to the asterisk database to indicate if the extension is closed, this way you can stop outgoing calls from being made from a closed extension by checking the dial plan. Please let me know if there are any other features you would like to see in IPSwitchBoard. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

I know that you are supposed to be able to press # and then transfer the call to extension 700. However, * doesn't seem to be graping the dtmf. I am using dtmfmode=inband. Asterisk is in the media path as well.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] CVS-HEAD change: queue/agent persistence
For anyone using CVS HEAD, if you are using queue member persistence or agent persistence, your next update will cause the persistence to break. The storage format for these elements has been changed so that it can be more easily extended in the future, but this required breaking compatibility. This should be the last time these features will be broken by an upgrade :-) Thanks for these informations. But what does it mean exactly update will cause the persistence to break. Which actions are required to maintain this feature after updating?

RE: [Asterisk-Users] RE: Getting phpconfig to work?
When I do click on the phpconfig.php link from http://ip-of-machine/phpconfig/, it returns a page with the actual contents of that file (phpconfig.php) and doesn't load the page. See some of the output below; Try a simple php-script in this directory. Something like this, name it test.php ?PHP print (test) ? If it does not print test, and you see the code instead, check your httpd.conf for a general php-parsing problem.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] RE: Getting phpconfig to work?
True, I have tried that and all I see is code instead. How do I go about solving the php-parsing problem in my httpd.conf then? Try this in your (actual!!) httpd.conf AddType application/x-httpd-php .php Perhaps (not shure) this too, but the above should work # LoadModule php4_module modules/libphp4.so # DirectoryIndex index.php Regards, Guido Hecken ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
