Re: [asterisk-users] Vacancy - Asterisk MySQL Support Engineer 45KSouth London
By UK standards that's a pretty good salary. Bear in mind that there is no real 1:1 parity in IT salaries. In the US we earn significantly more for our IT efforts than in the UK. To give you an example, when I moved from London to New York I got a 4 fold pay rise in real terms for doing exactly the same job. I was on 28K GBP over there and got paid 120K US$ over here.

The best use I have seen is the newly converted IAX2 which can use multithreading in version 1.4, the beta of which should be released later this week. The best idea would be to compile Asterisk, run some tests (show translation recalc 60) with HT turned on, restart the box, bring it up with HT turned off and try again. You should also run a few calls and check the CPU. Also, when you said the normal is 120 simultaneous transcoding operations, what is normal? I have a P4 w/HT 3.4Ghz, 2GB RAM machine. Would that be above or below normal? Thanks much \R I would think that is above normal but not by much, I'm not sure what normal was, nor can I find the Digium document where this was stated.

Re: [asterisk-users] Abstraction for a newbie
Sounds to me like you don't have a proper connection with Stanaphone. The only time you'll get these problems is when they cannot contact you to forward the call to your system. Double check you firewall settings. They need to be able to reach your system on port 5060UDP (assuming SIP) as well as ports 1-2UDP (Asterisk default media ports). They'll contact yo when a call comes in. You'll accept the call and at the same time tell them which port to send the incoming audio to. They'll also tell you where to send your outgoing audio. Hope that helps. Mark On Fri, 2006-08-11 at 15:45 -0700, Dominic Son wrote: Hi.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] What is Echo?
Actually this is an Elastic Impact. Throwing an object at another object as suggested below could cause the kinetic energy possessed by the ball to be diverted thus causing the ball to travel in a different direction after impact. This type of impact is commonly seen when insufficient kinetic energy is presented to a much larger object thus causing the larger object to dissipate the energy (usually as heat or sound) or in the case of most hard surfaces to return the incoming energy along the same path it arrived.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk on Proxy
Hi Paul, Asterisk often uses a proxy for its calls. What kind of proxy do you have? Also, If you have the server setup for nat=yes in the [general] area then ALL calls will get nat'd regardless of their locality. The best place to put this stement is in the relevant part of the sip.conf file that deals with the devices you want to have nat'd. If you only want to nat devices from your office LAN but not devices or service providers out on the Internet then you need to do a bit more configuration. I've pasted my config file below for your perusal. I have phone handsets on the LAN but my phone provider is on the Internet. I don't nat internally but do externally. ; SIP Configuration for Asterisk ; [general] port = 5060 ; Port to bind to bindaddr = 192.168.201.15 ; Address to bind to localnet = 192.168.201.0/24 ; Internal NETWORK address ;externhost = g7ltt.dyndns.org ; Address for NAT'd SIP messages ;externrefresh = 10 externip = 68.196.143.250 nat = no srvlookup = yes ; Enable DNS lookups context = from-sip-external dtmfmode = inband disallow = all allow = ulaw allow = g726 allow = gsm allow = ilbc tos = lowdelay canreinvite = no pedantic = no videosupport = yes callerid = 9738281625 qualify = yes realm=g7ltt.dyndns.org ; put external SIP provider registration here register = user:@sip.broadvoice.com:password:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [2201] ; Mark's MDA type=friend host=dynamic context=from-sip-internal username=2201 secret=blah dtmfmode=rfc2833 mailbox=2201 disallow=all allow=gsm [2202] ; WiFi cordless type=friend host=dynamic context=from-sip-internal username=2202 secret=blah dtmfmode=rfc2833 mailbox=2202 callgroup=1 pickupgroup=1 [2203] ; type=friend host=dynamic context=from-sip-internal username=2203 secret=blah dtmfmode=rfc2833 mailbox=2203 callgroup=1 pickupgroup=1 [sip.broadvoice.com] ; main outgoing provider user=phone username=9738281625 type=peer secret=password nat=yes insecure=very host=sip.broadvoice.com port=5060 fromuser=9738281625 fromdomain=sip.broadvoice.com dtmfmode=inband context=enicommunications canreinvite=no authname=9738281625 qualify=1000 disallow=all allow=ulaw allow=g726 allow=ilbc You'll notice that nat=no is set in my [general] area. That means that unless I say otherwise all devices are considered local and so no nat required. In the [sip.broadvoice.com] area I turn on the nat. I think that in your case you do the reverse of this. I'm on the end of a cable modem and so I *should* use the externhost settings as my number could change dynamicly but as I've found that it never does save myself the DNS lookup. Hope this helps.

Hi Peter, I don't see any codec allow=blah statements. If your end user has something like [gradwell] disallow=all allow=gsm Then you'll be forced to send them a GSM coded call. Why not force the codec at your end by only supporting one? If the customer then transcodes the call when it gets forwarded to his handset there's not much you can do about that but at least you'll have handed the call off in the best format you can source.

[Asterisk-Users] British Voice talent records Asterisk prompts
Hi folks, I have British comedienne, Alison Keenan (another Alison!) coming in on Saturday afternoon to record the Asterisk prompts for me. Alison speaks with a posh boarding school accent. Finally we'll have a free British English female voice bank. As I have her in my studio (yeah right; it's a cupboard under the stairs) does anyone need anything doing? She's charging a Pound a word with a minimum of 20 quid. Interested parties should drop me an script email as well as relevant funds to my paypal account ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).

RE: Pinouts for T1/E1 crossover cable WAS RE: [Asterisk-Users]whatcable to connect a legacy PBX to a TE410P ?
I think it is correct. Isn't that why they call it a Smart Jack? I've only ever seen a regular cat5 cable used from the Smart Jack to the device (router/PBX/CSU/DSU/whatever). I believe the point of the smart jack is, amongst other things, to allow for the use of readily available cables. I agree however that back-to back (PBX-PBX etc) you would need a cross-over cable.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] How can I force Asterisk t not override my codec order?
Actually no. As far as I understand it, the receiving station gets to dictate the codec used. You call and offer up your list. He selects his preffered from your list and off you go. in your case you will always have gsm from 12 becasue 2 has a prefference for GSM. Try it back the other way. You should get an alaw connection Mark, G7LTT/KC2ENI Randolph, NJ http://www.g7ltt.com Álvaro Palma wrote: I've noticed the following situation: In two softphones, I've configured the next codec order for each one softphone 1: 1 - PCMA 2 - GSM softphone 2: 1 - GSM 2 - PCMA and in Asterisk, the order is: disallow=all allow=gsm allow=alaw If I call from softphone 1 to softphone 2, I presume that Asterisk should do transcoding (canreinvite is set to no): softphone 1 - PCMA - Asterisk - GSM - softphone 2 But, strange for me, Asterisk forces both sides to GSM. I guess that this feature is done to avoid the problem of users setting always the more bandwith consuming codec against its administrator desires. However, is there a way to bypass this feature, so Asterisk set as codec order the same offered by the softphone? Something in sip.conf like: use_client_codec_order = yes (no by default)???

Re: [Asterisk-Users] How do I install speex for asterisk?
Do you have allow=speex in your codecs list in either sip.conf or iax.conf? if not this this could be the reason. Also, Speex won't get selected if its not the primary codec on either side's call initiation. In other words you allow list should look like this disallow=all allow=speex allow=blah allow=blah When you make a SIP call you will be able to force the other side into speex if they suport it.

Here's a little diddy from astlinux.org: Hi Kristian, This sounds like a great step forward. However since am from the UK we have to use a private set of prompts. The company that did them provided WAV format as well as GSM but I didn't really think about it and simply used the GSM pack provided as I assumed that was the recommended option. Could you give me a little detail on what the best format settings are so that I can convert my UK set into uber ulaw processor codec. Also if you have a nice linux script to take out some of the effort that would be fantastic but if not I am sure the sox man page will help me out. *I did try simply calling the .wav using Playback() but asterisk wasn't having any of it. Thanks in advance Alex Alex, Your WAVs are probably 16bit with a 44.1 (or 48kz) sampling rate. Asterisk can't resample (that's probably for the better). You need to resample them with sox.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Better i18n for Asterisk?
The same 7 sound file is used to indicate both time and quantity. The sound file could be easily recorded to say sept heure but then every time the VM system tells a user that they have 7 messages they'll hear something like vous avez sept heure notification (excuse my schoolboy French). Perhaps rather than writing a VM AGI one could have a French language patch to the sources? In general I think the French way is better (I can't believe I just said that). I tell the time using the 24 hour clock. 7:45AM is correctly expressed at 7 hours 45 minutes using the 24 hour system. Could we have run into another Americanism here?

But if I were to bring up a religious subject in a technology forum (or list), I would consider myself to have gotten off rather lightly if the worst response I got was simply a funny little play on words such as the got my goat comment. Now, if someone came on here and started a I believe in Religion X and you believe in Religion Y, so YOU ARE DAMNED TO HELL FOR ALL ETERNITY spiel or on the other hand started a DON'T YOU (so-and-so) IDIOTS KNOW THERE'S NO GOD spiel, then sure; that would be annoying and offensive. But nobody did that. I don't understand why people get so worked up about this kind of thing. To me, the idea of you being offended by the got my goat joke makes about the same amount of sense as the idea that someone would have been offended by Rehan's original post that started this thread. Although one person might not like to hear jokes about religion, other people might not like to hear about religion at all. I think that either way it's not worth getting particularly upset over. -Rusty ___ --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

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Iterfacing with a Mitel PBX
This would not be the chosen method. Also, you have connected an fxo device to an fxs device. This will produce the results you have encountered. Connecting 2 fxo's or 2 fxs's together would not produce anything as you have discovered. The prefered method would be via a cross-over type T1/E1 interface. A dial plan is then placed on each PBX so that all routes are known and as many features as possible are maintained. Both PBX's think that the other is the PSTN. You could continue with you TDM400 card but you'd need 2 dial plans. 1 from the Mitel to the * box and vice versa. This would require you to have an fxo to fxs connection from each box. this would limit you 2 a total of 2 calls in each direction.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] What hardware fits my needs?
4 T's for 100 users? That's almost a line each. Talk about overkill and expense! Whatever happened to the 3:1 rule of thumb? That would require 33 lines. Obviously this would be a little difficult to produce so 2 T's for 48 lines would be what I'd install. If you have 100 users and they are all on the phone at the same time you either have a slammin' HellDesk or you have a big discipline problem within the firm. I have many customers in the 100+ user range and with the exception of 1 whom runs a HellDesk they all have only 2 T's with no reports of congestion either in or out. Could it be you are over scaling things somewhat? Mark, G7LTT/KC2ENI Randolph, NJ http://www.g7ltt.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Jami, Providing a specific response to your question is rather difficult without a more meaningful list of parameters. 1. You say you have 20,000 distinct DIDs already. Are these provisioned through an existing telephony switch using multiple PRI lines (E1/T1)? Ideally you would need 4 PRI lines to support the average load of 100 users (4xE1=120 channels or 4xT1=96 channels). However in reality there will be usage peaks - thus you may need to consider designing a system that can cope with double or treble that many simultaneous users in order to handle peak loads. 2. Providing that many mailboxes and offering the functionality you describe is feasible using Asterisk. However you will undoubtedly need multiple servers - though again the number of servers and their specification is dependent on many additional factors. 3. What is the nature of the service. i.e. Is it mission critical and do you need to ensure high-availability? This will impact the architecture/hardware configuration you choose. Also do you plan to locate all of the lines/servers at a single site or do you want to have redundancy spread across multiple sites in the event of an outage within your Central Office? 4. How many messages of what maximum length do you anticipate each user being allowed to store? Again this will impact storage requirements. 5. The www.digium.com site lists the cards they offer for interfacing to E1/T1 PRI lines. As for server hardware - you will ideally want to use fast multi-processor servers for your service. Again - the exacting specification is difficult to suggest without knowing more about what you are seeking to achieve. 6. Asterisk is robust and powerful. However there is a learning curve spanning anything from many weeks to a few months depending on your available skills/resources. Setting up a production grade service on this scale will certainly require a deep understanding of both Linux/UNIX and Asterisk.

[Asterisk-Users] Anyone doing NAT through m0n0Wall?
Hi Folks, I've just built myself a m0n0Wall based around a WRAP board and whilst it work really well for everything else I'm having some issues with Asterisk's NAT abilities. Here's my setup, A bunch of hardphones (various types) littered around the house. SPA-3000 handles the house POTS line which forwards to extention 2005. X-Ten Pro on my laptop for when I'm out and about. Grandstream BT-101 at my dad's house via our cable modems. Until replacing the Linksys with the m0n0Wall everything was working fine and dandy. I have externip=g7ltt.dyndns.org set in my sip.conf file. Without it I could not make my dad's phone work. With the m0n0Wall in place and the externip setting set I can make no calls internally but all the external phones work just fine. The reverse is true when I remove the externip setting; the internal phones work but the external ones don't. I've done some tracing with both firewalls and have noted the following; Linksys: externip set all SIP and IAX2 frames from * have my public address as the reply-to regardless of the NAT requirement of the phone in use. In other words it offers up the external address for internal calls. All data flows through the Linksys when addressed to the public IP address and is then forwarded back to the * server. m0n0Wall: externip set as above and the firewall drops the packets. externip not set and the * NAT doesn't work. I know that the m0n0Wall requires a rule to be added to make it work as before but what I don't understand is why is Asterisk forcing all calls to use its public IP address when externip is set? Surely this doubles network traffic; one packet goes to the router. another goes from the router to the internal host. Why doesn't go directly over the LAN for internal stuff? I had assumed that the addition of a nat=yes statement in the relevant phone stanza would turn on or off the NAT reqirement for that phone device but this doesn't seem to be the case. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
