[asterisk-users] Adtran supervision problems
I am sending a call down a EM wink trunk to a adtran tsu600 channelbank. The extension is setup like so... exten=799179,1,Dial(zap/g2,20,D(9179)) exten=799179,2,Hangup() It should Dial the Adtran and send some DTMF signals to a telephone on an fxs module in the Adtran. Asterisk is seeing the call answered when the T-1 is picked up by the Adtran not when the ringing phone is answered. This means the digits have already been sent by the time the ringing phone is answered.

Does anyone know if it is possible to use a manager command to answer an incoming call and not consider it answered unitl it is received. Here is an example, I am deivering a call in the dialplan to a home telephone number. I don't want his voicemail to answer and I have no idea how long it will take to go to their home phone voicemail, but I don't want to deliver the call there, I want it to go to the next priority in asterisk. So I was thinking that it would be nice to build a web interface that they could have a button to answer with.

[asterisk-users] Agents.conf feature replication using addqueuemember
I (have to) would like to move my agents out of agents.conf in preparation for the deprecation of agentcallback login. Everyone I have spoken to is upset about this but the functionality can be accomplished in the dialplan and that is fine by me. I do have an issue with losing the features contained in the agents.conf though. I have to have the ackcall-yes working. All of my agents login on home phones and cellphones. When a call get presented to them there is a possibilty that their voicemail will answer before the queue timeout is reached. I fear that may connect callers to the voicemail when it answers. We currently get around this using the ackcall-yes which will wait for the caller to press pound, which a voicemail will not do and therefore the call will be put back in the queue. Other features that are important are the recording(which can be done on the dialplan side) and the update cdr. Both are important as the Monitor/mixmonitor will not name the file to be assoicated with the agent and only agent related calls. IE: if you have to look up the recording based on extension you will get personal calls as well as queue calls. Updatecdr is invalueable for the same reasons in the call detail records. Is anyone aware of a way to accomplish these things? Are any efforts being made to replicate the missing features? I can deal with the cdr and recordings, but the ackcall=yes is a show stopper!!! ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

I have a soundpoint 501 phone that has locked up twice now. You can make a call but when a call is sent to it, it responds with sip busy messages. You get the same message when the phone is in do not disturb. I reset to defaults the first time and it worked for a week or so and then stopped. The incoming calls are ringing three phones ( dial(sip/1sip/2sip/3 ), often two of them are in do not disturb. I read that I wasn't supposed to register these phone and have them set as static hosts.

This is definately a t-1 slipping, check your timing on the spans, also ensure that you have replaced the t-1 cables. I see this most of the time caused by cables that were made by hand. Usually because a solid conductor was used with stranded wire or solid cat5 with stranded rj-45's. If possible use a premade patch cord made of stranded wire.

[asterisk-users] ACD Queues Agents logout
Here is what I do... Exten=777,1,AgentCallbackLogin() Yup, thats it! use your agent id and password, and then enter your dialable number. I say dialable number because you can basically dial any phone number. We have agents that call a toll free number and login to their home phones, pretty sweet! This has to be in the right context to allow this though.

[Asterisk-Users] Queue - Log if caller disconnects
I am having the same problem with my IAX clients. I posted some issues that are causing my remote IAX agents to be disconnected due to errors in setting up the IAX stream. I have found that calls will abandon when a dynamic agent is logged into a down phone, the agent obviously cant logout if they cant call the switch back. The caller seems to be disconnected when being transferred to an agent that is logged into a down phone. I am using least recent routing. I had thought that asterisk at very worst would try to transfer to the agent, see the phone down, timeout on rings or not ring at all, and then log the agent out. I am definitely missing something or mis-reading my instructions. Please post your resolution and I will do the same.

[Asterisk-Users] Trixbox maunual configuration
I love the added apps installed with trixbox, ARI, Web-Meetme, FOP, and Reports are great. FreePBX on the other hand, is nearly impossible to do everything with. Trying to edit the configs manually proves impossible due to the excessive use of includes and macros. It is kind of like watching someone try to bite their own ear off. Has anybody tried to wipe all the configs clean and program the switch manually. Will this interfere with the other apps. I would wipe out extensions.conf, voicemail.conf, IAX.conf SIP.conf queues.conf and agents.conf. I do not want to use the FreePBX again after this.

[Asterisk-Users] hotel vmail and iax trouble
I have two issues... First I am working with a hotel software vendor to include an automated way to turn vmail on and off while clearing it at the same time. The vendor is looking to interface via serial cable as they currently do with Mitel systems. i am willling to work with them on an IP interface but I am not so sure on how to implement it in asterisk. Does anyone know of a way that may be prebuilt, AGI or the like? Basically it works like this, When they check out a customer they want to clear the Vmail and forward it to the front desk, when they check in they want to turn the vmail on and have it completly reset password and all. I do not know an easy way to do this in asterisk due to the fact you will be chasing down several files every time. Second I have another site using teliax, I've set this up before but something is strange on this box. I am getting a message stating that IAX2 channel could not be created and is not implemented error number 66. No clue myself.

You have to configure the switchports on the Cisco switch like so: interface fastethernet 0/1 switchport trunk native vlan your data vlan switchport mode trunk switchport voice vlan your voice vlan spanning-tree portfast trunk etc. Thanks, Nicholas Kathmann, CISSP Kathmann Consulting, LLC ___ --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 ___ --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 ___ --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 ___ --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 -- Message: 4 Date: Thu, 02 Mar 2006 18:15:28 + From: Joao Pereira [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] OT - Cisco IP Phone and PC in diferent VLANs(with 802.1x) To: Wojciech Tryc [EMAIL PROTECTED], asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
[Asterisk-Users] monitor outgoing calls in queue / campaings
I use Speed dial keys for setting account codes for the different queues. When an agent dials out I have them hit the speed dial key and the call is registered to that account code. Pretty typical of any call center outbound calling. ___ --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
[Asterisk-Users] Conference bridge dimensioning
We are using an Asterisk box to do conferencing right now. I have had about sixteen active lines in conference and the quality was acceptable. We now have a need for 50 people to conference at one time. Does anyone have enough experience doing this to give me some pointers. Will it even be reasonable to try this? Is the mixing done on the the hardware, I plan on using a quad span t-1 card from Digium? The server is a fedora box with a dual core xeon at 2.0 Ghz and 2 gigs of Ram. Is there a rule of thumb to go by as far as conferencing resources?

[Asterisk-Users] Sendmail with exchange
I am using Asterisk to send Voicemail out as Email. I am running into a problem I believe to be caused by the exchange server requiring SMTP authentication. I cannot get the sys admin's to turn it off. Does anyone know enough about sendmail to help me. I am assuming that the default mail client is sendmail. It will also send to other non-SMTP authenticated servers. Your help is much appreciated.

[Asterisk-Users] Virtual Extensions
I have run into two programs offering Virtual users. This allows a person to enter a code and take over any extension, another code is used to release the feature. The two programs are Ipmanager and Scopserv. I hate using GUI's as I have not seen a truly good one. I would like to implement this feature without the GUI. Any Ideas! From what I gather they are using Macro's, of which I have no knowledge. Any help would be appreciated. ___ --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
[Asterisk-Users] PRI QSIG and legacy toshiba intergration
I love it... I buy a half a million dollars worth of Trashiba's finest ... I download Asterisk for free... I now refer to it as legacy 18 months and 300 extensions later! Anyway, I am trying to integrate my dial plans acrossed platforms. PSTNCTX670Asterisk The dialplan I would like to setup, 1xx,2xx,3xx,7xxx to the CTX 670 4xx,6xxx toa remote ctx100 (this is setup using QSIG ISDN on a PRI tie line) now I would like to have 8xxx going to asterisk All of my incoming calls would be handled by the ctx670, mostly on DNIS equipted lines. If the user dials a four digit extension starting with "8" on the CTX 670, how do I transfer that digit string to asterisk? Going backwards, the asterisk user dialing a CTX extension, I plan to handle this with DID digits sent back to the CTX, when I see the Incoming DID digits I can route the call based on DID I receive from asterisk on that particular line group. It will sort work like this... Ext.123 is dialed on asterisk Asterisk picks up a zap channel sends DTMF 123 after the CTX picks up CTX looks at DID and sends it to the destination 123 I think that I need a context with all of my CTX extensions in it! Ultimately I am trying to find out if Qsig can somehow help me, I am more of a phone guy, I need an asterisk guy to exchange help with..
