Re: [asterisk-users] High Port Count ATA
i have deployed the audiocodes mp-124? with 14 lines active lines and it ugly to configure, but works well once setup.

Re: [asterisk-users] Re: Open CallerID Database?
Just out of interest: From former posts I understood that there is a CALLERID service in US (for an extra fee, I assume) that gives both number _and_ name of the caller...? I am aware of the fact that e.g. EuroISDN lines can transmit alphanumeric callerid (and in fact I already use that on an ISDN phone here that connects to an Asterisk - showing a few special names like wakeup call). Not for names yet, as I was too lazy to implement that. Does that also work over analogue lines? ISDN is america does the same thing, but in Canada( which could be like europe) the callerid is transfered on the SS7 ISUP message, so the owner of the number can provide their own callerid. In America though, this isn't the case. You can not transfer the callerid over the ISUP message, it must be looked up using TCAP(verisign) or IP servce(targus). It's not really getting the CallerID info to the local switch, but getting it updates in this database in the sky that we are forced to use. :) On 2/20/07, Anselm Martin Hoffmeister [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Am Dienstag, den 20.02.2007, 16:33 -0700 schrieb Natambu Obleton: I would guess that registration would be by the telco for the blocks just like with reverse dns today, so then each telco would have a local server to manage their 'reverse' cnam lookup and the people in charge would be NANPA, just like how ARIN is regulated today.

A made-up phone number like +49 (228) 91234567 would be found as 7.6.5.4.3.2.1.9.8.2.2.9.4.enum-something This means, you delegate the 2.1.9.8.2.2.9.4.enum-something to the telco that owns the 912 block in Bonn, Germany. Number portability screws this, as even single numbers out of a contiguous range of MSNs on a ISDN line can be moved over to another provider, with the others staying with the old provider. They would have to play well together, and that will fubar for sure (they even sometimes block the DSL frequencies on lines when a customer moves to another company, with unblocking taking a 14-day security period, because they can - there is no technical block, but the DSLAM manipulation database software will mark your DSL line as blocked, making moving to another provider a pain with up to 6 weeks without internet). In Germany we have an agency that manages all phone book data, and (nearly?) all the 411 type services (called 118xx here) buy data there. How they manage their data internally is none of my business (although I would guess it's something like MSSQL with an Access frontend, thinking about the Deutsche Telekom ;-). They will no way accept DNS-type queries for free. Some months ago, there was a heise.de (German IT newsticker) article about them charging enourmous sums, paying the real data storage and administration costs back by about factor 5 or so. Well-paying businesses rarely give away their business turnpoint. Any non-official system will suffer even worse inaccuracy than the providers' own and managed system (as someone else already wrote). Their data is quite bad enough. This relates, of course, to the fact that they may only reverse-lookup numbers to find names if the customer explicitely allowed them to do it, on the line rental agreement. There are usually several checkboxes, allowing you to get listed in phonebook, get listed in digital listings, and get listed for reverse lookup. For those who allow it there is a free web-frontend to reverse-lookup numbers, which is a pain to script-access, but it is possible. It suffers from problems with DIDs, as for example a shop might have the number 94144-0, and assigned the numbers up to 94144-29. If you try to lookup 9414488 (which might be a private person's analogue line, and this is absolutely valid in the German numbering system) it will return the wrong entry because the logic in their webinterface always assumes that 94144-0 means all numbers starting 94144- belong to that line. _That_ really sucks - you think business and then it's a friend calling for private talk.

Re: [asterisk-users] Open CallerID Database?
Why not make it like DNS and have each provider have their lookups deligated to a local server and then each ISP will run a caching server that will use a serial number system to get updates.. just like DNS.

I definitely understand there's some legal implications involved, both on a privacy level, and fraud prevention.

I'm somewhat aware of the legal implications involved with storing such personally identifiable information (or whatever the legal term is) and have a concern in making sure such issues are resolved. In reality, how is it efficient for every provider to be running their own database? In my mind, this leaves the horribly evident inaccuracies, and even efficiency issues. Thank God these accuracies aren't integral to the operations of telephony systems. I do understand there is a price to pay for such infrastructure, and I believe that it's obvious the telephony world is riddled with racketeering, price gouging ventures, including companies that charge nearly a $0.01 for a lookup. I realize the following analogy is poor, but in mind this is as close as a internet search engine charging for a basic search query. Infact a basic internet query is much more complex, much more costly (ie: the infrastructure of said systems), and yet self-subsidizing. And to the poster who suggested that I was implying scrapping the results from 411.com, this is definitely not even a remote idea in my mind at all. The basis for my idea was a open, moderated, database that was user controlled and self-subsidized. I know this is way off topic, but I really feel that the telecom industry as a whole, and I'm sure I'm not the only one with this belief, is horribly bloated, running on business models that are clearly 30 years outdated.

If it's for voicemail or apps, he'll just have to make sure that certain apps land on certain servers, and voicemail can be distributed for various things. If ser can do what I've heard/read it can do, it can handle all the basic call functions (i.e. forwarding) for plenty of calls. Also, if the asterisk servers are just acting as gateways (i.e. t1, e1, etc), then they will have no problem handling a load balanced configuration.

All of us are relatively new at this jazz, though naturally my higher ups have more experience than I. We're toying with VoIP a lot in the office, and I personally feel like I'm fairly far behind them in knowledge of it all. I've done some studying the past day or two, and I grasp the basic principles of VoIP, Asterisk, and SER/OpenSER, and about 5% of the hardware involved in all of it (programmer; software guy). I'd like to catch up to them as quickly as possible so I can be of most use. Here's what I have available to me, and what I've done so far: AVAILABLE: - A box with OpenBSD (my preferred OS for most production servers) - Asterisk installed on the box. - One IP Phone DONE: - Installed Asterisk. - Written this e-mail. :) I'm wondering where to begin. I have Asterisk installed but don't know how to go about getting my IP phone to work with it. To start, I'd like to make calls only internally on my home network (not even screwing with my company's network yet; they're further along into configs than I want to get into just yet) to a soft phone that Ubuntu Dapper Drake (my OS at home) comes with. My question is this: Where can I find good starter documentation(s) for my purposes?

[asterisk-users] Current radius patches
I would like to setup asterisk with Realtime and radius authentication, but the radius patches are either outdated ( they support a version of asterisk before realtime was mature ) or they dont patch right. I tried this, but the version it is for is really old. PortaOne Radius auth - voip-info.org http://lnk4.us/pZfq I tried this here 0005424: [branch] SIP peer authentication on an external database (RADIUS - LDAP) - Mantis http://lnk4.us/Ky7h But those patches seem to line up with a Revision 36170, which isnt in the SVN server. So before I be dumb and just apply the patches by hand. Anyone know where I can get current patches for radius authentication for asterisk 1.2.x?
