Whoa, I'm confused.  Can't you use as many cards as you have slots? 
We've got just one 4-port card, but I've always assumed it was just a 
matter of purchasing and installing more to get 8 or 12 lines?


It's a best practice to minimize interrupts and therefore it's usually 
not recommended to use more than 2 TDM400Ps in a system. In mid-density 
configuration you'd want to consider using a channel bank or a telephony 
card like Digium's TDM2400P (or a VoIP gateway).

My recommendation is for you to approach the decision makers of your 
organization and suggest that you submit Asterisk to the Open Source 
Maturity Model as described in Succeeding with Open Source by Bernard 
Golden. It sounds like you come from a pragmatist organization that 
demands a mature product and thus the book would provide much needed 
context for working with an open source project.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk book feedback

Ross C wrote:

Just curious what everyone (as in, the people that have read it or use it)
thinks about the O'Reilly Asterisk book.  I'd really like to delve into the
nitty gritty of Asterisk, but I'm getting kinda tired of swimming through
forums and Google results.  I've been reading the wiki off and on for about
a week now, but I'm wondering if a book would be the way to go to get a
solid foundation.  My IT career for the past 10 years has been based off of
learn-as-I-go methods, but I'd really like to learn asterisk the right way.
I have a couple Asterisk servers up and running and in use, but they're very
small systems (~10 extensions, connected to 3 or 4 pots lines).  I have some
clients that want to use VOIP, but they're bigger businesses, and I'm not
yet comfortable enough to roll out a bigger system.
So if there are any other methods for learning Asterisk that I should
consider, please do tell! 


Any opinions (on the book or otherwise) appreciated.  Thanks!


Another resource you might want to consider is Ted Wallingford's 
Switching to VoIP:


http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/switchingvoip/

It uses Asterisk extensively in examples and provides good coverage of 
concepts like QoS, codecs, etc. that are important considerations in 
many Asterisk deployments.

Mike McMullen wrote:

Hi All,

I have an employee who works mostly in our office but
maybe once or twice a week has to work from home to help
care for her special needs child.

As background we have AAH 2.0 running with 8 analog lines
connected to two digium t400P cards. We have 10 sipura-841s
as handsets in the office.

I would like the employee to be able to make and take calls
from her house when the she has to work from home. I'm leaning
towards just installing s/w on her laptop with a headset for that
setup.

My question is how to handle setting her up so that she only has one
extension shared between the office phone and her laptop. For this
to work, do I need to unplug her phone from power/network in
the office when she is at home or, hopefully, is there some other
magic that can happen?

For archive purposes...

Had to do some digging to find out what you were talking about - I guess 
you are referring to the section Using native Asterisk format_mp3 for

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+config+musiconhold.conf

Some of the comments suggest that this solution is far from robust. 
Would be interested in hearing others experience with this solution for MoH.

Therefore, I am very interested to see if this is merely co-incidental


or


if
there is a reason that Sprint picked out two providers that use


Asterisk

their core.  Despite hysteria or misinformation on this (and other)


lists,


there is no direct information that I've seen that this is Sprint

just


some
specific feature that they have a legitimate patent on which has been
infringed.  I doubt this is a codec patent issue, nor an equipment

Is there anyone with better detail on the lawsuit specifics able to

IIRC, Digium's T3 card isn't expected to be channelized. Also, IIRC 
it will have no on-board EC and no on-board encoding so I can't imagine 
the machine you would need to process that many calls.

oh323
Once it (oh323) was installed, I was able to dialout from an h323 device 
with little problem. I have not, however, been able to setup the h323 
device as an extension (or use it to communicate with other h323 
devices, or through it to the pstn.. I was confused because in creating 
an extension (or a trunk) in [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] there 
was nothing to indicate that h323 was available. The dropdown in 
extension creation does not include oh323 (or some such) item.
I need a clue as to how to setup an extension and how to setup a trunk 
(using an h323 device that is).


The current version of AMP (1.10.008) supports the creation of Custom 
Trunks, which in your case could be an oh323 trunk. The next version of 
AMP (1.10.009, currently in second beta) will support Custom extensions, 
which in your case would mean that you could setup your oh323 endpoint 
and be able to leverage AMP's dialplan.


 
ISDN
Could someone please tell me whether the AVM Fritz card is a low pain 
solution to connecting to a BRI ? I've tried connecting an ASUS card 
(doesn't work with the available drivers/application) so I'm really 
asking in order to buy. I only have one BRI - this is at home) so would 
appreciate any help.


Can't comment on the pain aspect but documentation on this configuration 
exists:


http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk+AVM+Fritz+CAPI+Driver+Install

(Note: this would be configured in AMP as a Custom Trunk as well)

 
 
iConnectHere
 From day one, I was able to create the trunk to dialout of 
iConnectHere, but despite finding several claimed correct settings for 
receiving its DID, I've not been able to. When I connect a Grandstream 
101 to the line and power it up, it has absolutely no problem receiving 
calls from that DID but no matter what I try, I'm unable to receive into 
Asterisk (@home) .. Just so we're clear, I am receiving calls from fwd 
and through fwd from an ipkall number.. and I'm also recieving calls 
from the FXO on a sipura spa3k.. - iConnectHere don't help more than 
point to the wiki .. (and what I find there doesn't work).


No comment. Never heard of this VoIP Service Provider.

 
Just a note to describe my handicap with linux:
I'm unable to capture a log (or perhaps it's captured and I'm just not 
aware where)..


Asterisk: /var/log/asterisk/full (see /etc/asterisk/logger.conf)

Linux: /var/log/messages


[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] seems to dialout and receive calls 
using Macros.. I suspect it's a clever way of managing the setup, but 
I'm not sure where the various portions of SIP.conf, extensions.conf, 
extensions_additional.conf, extensions_custom.conf or indeed oh323.conf. 
- are relevant.


Please search the [EMAIL PROTECTED] forum and/or amportal list  forum for 
more info on these topics.

The next version of AMP (1.10.009) will remove any assumptions from the 
dialplan about the technology being used. In short, the dialplan begins 
to care about devices - and the devices can be any Asterisk supported 
technology. In the AMP interface you can create a Custom Device and 
provide an appropriate dial string.


Feel free to check out 009 (currently in beta) to test your 
configuration on a Development machine. Please note that the 
implementation is subject to change.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Visual ring notification

2005-07-01 Thread Jason Becker


I have put a pbx into a resort with Polyycom phones, everythign works 
great, except the kitchen staff cannot hear the phone ring. I know many 
legacy systems employ a big red flashing light, any ideas on doing 
something similar?


 


FYI, the Uniden UIP200 has a big red flashing light.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] OrderlyQ installations?

What experience can be shared about installing and running the 
OrderlyQ application?


I have a bunch of queues set up and want to start adding some 
additional apps and this one looked promising but I have very little 
java experience and it doesn’t seem to be running properly.


I don't mean to hijack this thread since the OP specifically mentioned 
OrderlyQ but -


ICD (Intelligent Call Distributor) looks like it adds some 
sophistication to Asterisk ACD functionality and provides a flexible 
framework for customization:

I'd be interested in hearing about ICD - specifically skills-based call 
routing, if anyone has done it.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Re: @Home AMP call recording documentation

2005-06-16 Thread Jason Becker

Dan Littlejohn wrote:


If someone could point me to the incoming/outfoing call recording
feature for AMP it would be greatly appreciated.
 


Look in the Extensions Admin. Per Extension you can set:

Record INCOMING

Record OUTGOING

The script /var/lib/asterisk/bin/archive_recordings will create some 
meaningful directory structure under /var/spool/asterisk/monitor.


Until some management capability is added to the interface (i.e. 
playback) you'll have to get the files via (win)scp or make them 
available through a network service like samba.


Please post to the amportal mailing list:

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Re: Re: Digium Website Update: Asterisk Business Edition

2005-06-12 Thread Jason Becker

Brian Capouch wrote:

As I have been reading this thread one missing angle that perhaps 
should be addressed by those who are bothered by the current licensing 
scheme is this: what alternative means exist out there for Digium to 
try to ensure their corporate existence?


We can all see that in the backroom down in Huntsville there is a 
pretty fair-sized phalanx of people whose time is spent on Asterisk, 
not Digium's other business.  Those people need to eat, and Digium 
needs to make a profit in order to insure that Asterisk isn't simply 
just maintained, but can grow and respond to what we all have to 
concede is a very rapidly-changing technological environment.


[snip]

One thing I see lacking in this thread is a discussion of alternatives 
that would meet the relatively small list of desiderata: keep Asterisk 
open and free, make enough money to pay for the ongoing cost of 
Asterisk development, and provide enough return that it would make 
sense for Digium to exist as a commercial enterprise.


How else could it be done?


John Koenig offered 7 open source business strategies:

http://management.itmanagersjournal.com/management/04/05/10/2052216.shtml?tid=85

Optimization, dual-licensing, consulting, subscriptions, patronage, 
embedded, and hosted open source


David Pool offered 3 more strategies: publishing, hardware, and training

So in addition to dual-licensing, Digium also sells hardware (that point 
seems to have been forgotten) and offers consulting 
(implementation/integration/support).

Is there any way to separate AMP stuff from asterisk, in other words to

AMP does require file-system access for configuration of Asterisk. With 
some clever engineering the interface could be decoupled from the PBX. 
At present this decoupling is not a design goal of AMP.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] AMP Handset Provisioning

Hi Stuart,

I have in the past written a hack to AMP 1.10.004 to automatically generate
Polycom configuration files such that when an extension is created you can
select the type of handset as a Polycom and then enter the handsets MAC /

formatted config files. This was a dirty hack written in haste.
I am about to start doing a patch for the latest version of AMP that will
allow developers to added their own handset config plug-in or at least
publish the method used to recreate correctly the previous Polycom hack such
that anyone should be able to build their own handset configuration
templates and have AMP auto provision whilst maintaining some consistency.
Has anyone else done anything similar given that duplication is the root of
all evil ?
 

A Feature Request for this very capability was submitted earlier today:

[Asterisk-Users] Any movement on IAX being submitted to a standards body?

2005-01-10 Thread Jason Becker
Hi All,
I'm aware of this statement by Mark circa July 2004:
-begin-
SIP is an IETF standard. While there is some fledgling documentation
courtesy Frank Miller, IAX is not a published standard at this time.
-end-
And the thread How far is IAX to be a Standard circa November 2004. It 
is not my intention to start a protocol war; I was discussing IAX and 
SIP with an Editor at ZDNet and the question came up - I just wanted to 
provide him with the current status of the effort (if one is underway).

The Installation Guide provides step-by-step instructions:

It might be better to characterize AMP as a blueprint or set of 
instructions for building your own *-based telephony server. You do need 
to invest some time and effort to build it - or you can pay someone else 
to do it for you.

We do of course welcome efforts from the community to make the project 
better. An installation routine that handles all the popular Linux 
distributions is non-trivial. At present we are focused on providing the 
user base oft-requested features - like support for VoIP trunks which we 
delivered in this version.

Hi all,
I've done some minimal searching on this topic, but haven't come up

working on all three platforms.   Is anyone in a similar situation and
have gotten either of those two compressed codecs to work?  Is there
something I have to install in linux to get either working (some sound
library or something)?
My experience has been that mplayer can handle the wav49 (GSM-encoded

install, even with the newbie guide.
 If you have fewer than 10 extensions to configure, it's probably not
worth your effort to going thru all the trouble to install AMP.,
hoping you didn't screw up anything during the install process. .
Just wondering how difficult it would be for AMP devs to develop a

I'll be continuing to manually config my asteisk files

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Possible to display which extensions are in use on the phone's display?

2004-11-17 Thread Jason Becker
Hi Richard,
Richard Hansberry wrote:
Hi all, 
 
We're considering using Asterisk in our small (8 user)
office.  There is one feature that we have on our
current phone system that I haven't seen in the
documentation that I've read that I'd like to be able
to replicate with Asterisk.
 
On our current phones (Iwatsu) we have a button on the
phones for each extension that lights up when that
extension is ringing or is in a call, so I can see at
a glance if one of my coworkers is on the phone before
I go barging into his office.  Also, if I am in a
coworker's office and my phone rings, I can hit my
extension button on his phone and answer the call.  
 
Can this functionality be reproduced by Asterisk, and
if so, which SIP handsets would you suggest using to
do something like this?  Right now, I'm looking at the
Cisco 7960, but I'm open to other options.
This question was dealt with in a recent thread. What it comes down to 
is a paradigm shift from a key system unit (which is what you describe) 
to a PBX.

You can use an application like Flash Operator Panel 
(http://www.asternic.org/) in conjunction with Asterisk to see who is on 
their phone (extension).

Re: [Asterisk-Users] $200 AMP documentation bounty

2004-11-12 Thread Jason Becker
dean collins wrote:
There is a $200 bounty for helping document a step by step guide to AMP, 
anyone on this list interested in making easy money feel free to contact me.
I want to thank Dean for giving me this opportunity to address some of 
the concerns raised in regards to AMP.

AMP began as a value-add to a _small business_ turn-key solution. We 
felt strongly that in order to approach small businesses with our 
integrated solution we needed a GUI administration interface that 
handled the mundane. When we looked at what was available circa 
Feb/March of this year we realized that we would be better off writing 
it ourselves. Most of the other (freely available) candidates still 
appear to me to be thin wrappers to the configuration files that require 
the end user to have a knowledge of Asterisk and programming logic. From 
the outset, AMP - or more specifically our piece that allows for setup 
of extensions, IVRs, etc. - was designed so that an Office Manager of a 
small business could use it for the day-to-day operational stuff.

It's clear to me that our design goal has resulted in the attention of 
people whose expertise does not extend to the Linux/UNIX world. I 
personally am thrilled at this. I also understand the frustration these 
people must feel when met with the INSTALL instructions. We know that if 
a person has software installation / development experience on Linux 
that a fully functioning AMP can be installed in a couple hours. We 
cannot take responsibility for the Linux learning curve. As one poster 
to this thread commented, the best way to overcome it is to take a 
crash course in general Linux admin. I think this is good advice for 
the time being until we find a solution to the problem of providing the 
user base with well-written documentation.

As to the specifics of providing the said documentation I am open to 
suggestions. Open source economics make it challenging for the software 
provider to also provide the other elements of a mature product. 
Elements like documentation and training. In fact, part of the reason we 
open sourced our piece of AMP was so that we could solicit help from the 
 Asterisk community to service this need. asteriskdocs.org was a 
suggestion. We, Coalescent Systems, would also consider hiring a 
professional technical writer if we can ensure that the demand for 
documentation was significant and that purchase of the documentation 
(ala JBoss' model) would support the paid position.

AMP is still targeted towards the small office and small business. I 
think we have made that very clear on the AMP homepage:

http://amp.voxbox.ca
In short, AMP, by design, limits the feature set of Asterisk and is 
intended for small office and small business use. It does NOT align well 
with the needs of larger organizations and is not suited for use in 
those environments. If Gregory Junker et al. want to design a 
standalone, cross-platform alternative I applaud their initiative.

Finally, I want to thank everyone that has shown an interest in AMP and 
Coalescent Systems.

something that got him interested because he's a telephone junkie.

Well then, how did you expect your win-weenies to admin a hardware based
phone system then? It sounds like they didn't admin them. Why should
they admin a new * phone system? 

The fact that a phone system can exist in software and run on a computer
doesn't mean that just anyone can admin it. Besides a myriad of OS
related issues, there is a huge volume of telecom related issue involved
too. Larger phone systems have always been based on a varient of Unix
(and not just ATT/Avaya/Lucent). Admining Unix is part of being a phone
system administrator.
I too favour Linux over Windows but this kind of rhetoric doesn't help 
accelerate the adoption of *.

I also believe in empowering customers. One of the benefits of 
AMP/voxbox is that the routine day-to-day administration of an *-based 
solution is abstracted from the configuration files. I fail to see any 
reason why knowledge of programming logic and a background in UNIX 
administration is necessary to setup an IVR.

[Asterisk-Users] GPL Violations (Was: Advice on OS Choice)

2004-10-14 Thread Jason Becker
From: Brian West brian at bkw dot org:
-begin-
Personally if the copyright holder of a GPL software such as Asterisk or 
any GPL software allows someone to violate the GPL then allow them to 
skid by is setting a bad precedent for the GPL.  I think if you find a 
GPL violation you must stand up and make an example out of said company. 
 If a copyright holder doesn't standup and say something that only

IANAL but you can make any changes you want provided you do not 
distribute/sell the changed software without making the changed code 
available. And AFAIK *Available* does not mean ship with. Available 
can mean download, CVS or other means. Distribution is what triggers the 
GPL. And use within a company does not, I believe, constitute distribution.

I also think GPL violations are rare. But there was a highly publicized 
alleged violation by Cisco/Linksys:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/6/7/164
To be honest I don't even know the end of that story (if it has 
ended)... probably some bureaucratic snafu.

I couldn't get it to work either, circa early February. I had some 
correspondence with the developer and sent him logs, etc. but nothing 
ever came of it. He did say there were authentication problems. Maybe 
you'll have better luck. He can be reached at:

In setting up Asterisk, I'm looking to dump my current phone system

I would use a VOIP provider, but now are presently available in the 
Toronto, ON, CANADA area that support user owned hardware/software. I 
need a 416/647 area code number.

In looking at FXO cards to atteach to the lines, I've seen the Digum 
single port FXO card and their multipoort FXS cards. So far, the 
cheapest route seems to be to buy three Digum FXO cards; however, the 
system I want to use them it only has some three/four PCI slots. 
Having one card with three FXO ports would be useful. I'm also open 
to using an external device. I bought a DLink dual port MCGP FXS 
device and that works well. The name of the game is CHEAP 
though...and Ebay has not been very useful.


Rumors say that Digium is about to release FXO modules for the 4-port 
TDM400P.  Assuming that they're priced similarly to their FXS ports, 
that would give you 4 FXO ports in 1 slot for around $300 US.


That would be great cuz we were quoted $875 Cdn for a single Voicetronix 
OpenLine4 (4-port FXO) from a reseller in Ottawa (they do have discounts 
for bulk purchases mind you).

Mark, contact me off-list if you want details but the reseller can be 
found off of Voicetronix's website.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Plugging Asterisk Security Holes....

Another topic of interest is securing the box itself. Does a firewall
(hardware outside of the box or a linux based firewall) suffice the need?
   

Depends what you are protecting against. If you want to assume some services are
exploitable, you could try to break some of the exploits by firewalling off all 
ports not used, and prevent all outgoing connections from your box except for 
ports you use on that box. If you use netfilter, you can create rules that
apply to user-ids as well, so you could allow asterisk more privileges.

 

Nessus (http://www.nessus.org/) is a great vulnerability assessment tool 
one can use to determine if services are exploitable.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] question about CPU usage

2004-03-24 Thread Jason Becker
Back in February I found * pinning the CPU (Slackware 9.1, Feb CVS). I 
ran a strace and found that it was looping on this:


-begin-

write(1, \nUse STOP NOW to shutdown Asteri..., 35) = -1 EIO
(Input/output erro
r)
write(1, *CLI , 6)   = -1 EIO (Input/output error)
read(0, , 1)  = 0
ioctl(0, SNDCTL_TMR_STOP, {B38400 opost isig icanon echo ...}) = -1 EIO
(Input/o
utput error)
-end-
Mark kindly responded to me:

-begin-

In the mean time try running asterisk with no console.  This is bug #864.
Preliminary analysis shows that after a restart now, one of the
ioctl()'s performed by editline fails with -1.  Ignoring the ioctl made
the CLI non-functional.  Happy to get any help I can in this regard.
-end-

Hope this helps.

Cheers

Re: [Asterisk-Users] windows alternitives to Asterisk?

I've never used either of these and I'm certainly no authority on the 
subject, but here are a couple Windows based alternatives I've come 
across while studying the marketplace:

http://www.nexpath.com/

http://www.artisoft.com/

You didn't say whether TDM was important to you, or whether free as in 
beer and/or freedom is desirable.

I'd love to see a competitive analysis of * vs. alternatives (Windows or 
otherwise) on the voip-info wiki.

Probably a dumb question, but what's the best Linux variant to use to

Hardware is Compaq DL360 with a Widcard 410.

Debian/Fedora Core ?

As others have said: Whatever you're most comfortable with. Having said 
that though, I'm partial to Slackware. It has a reputation for being 
stable and it has a simple package management system and adheres to a 
remote management philosophy (for lack of a better description).

[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk pins CPU

2004-02-08 Thread Jason Becker
Hello All.

Many times I've done a top and found that Asterisk is pinning the CPU, 
even when Asterisk isn't being used (this is on a DEV box):

2044 root  15   0  5232 5228  2608 R98.6  8.5 626:58   0 asterisk

I'm running a recent build of Asterisk on Slackware (2.4.24 kernel):

www*CLI show version
Asterisk CVS-02/07/04-21:34:06 built by [EMAIL PROTECTED] on a i686 running Linux
A strace shows that it's looping on this:

-begin-

write(1, \nUse STOP NOW to shutdown Asteri..., 35) = -1 EIO 
(Input/output erro
r)
write(1, *CLI , 6)   = -1 EIO (Input/output error)
read(0, , 1)  = 0
ioctl(0, SNDCTL_TMR_STOP, {B38400 opost isig icanon echo ...}) = -1 EIO 
(Input/o
utput error)

-end-

The machine does not have a soundcard and my /etc/asterisk/modules.conf has:

noload = chan_alsa.so
noload = chan_oss.so
If I restart asterisk all is well, for awhile. I'm not sure what 
triggers this behvaior. Anyone else getting this behavior?

I wish the lists were searchable... :(

Thanks.

Cheers

Jason

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk pins CPU

2004-02-08 Thread Jason Becker
Upon reading the bug I can confirm that I was doing:

asterisk -vvvc

through a ssh session/client (the Asterisk box is headless) and then for 
whatever reason I would close that session/client and come back later 
and start another ssh session/client and do a:

asterisk -r

and then probably a:

restart gracefully

triggered the behavior.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Cheers

Jason
