 Nagios (http://www.nagios.org/) can be configured to monitor pretty much
 anything you want. The (much) harder part is deciding what's relevant to
 monitor, and what your alarm thresholds should be set at.
 
 At $PREVIOUSEMPLOYER, we used Nagios to monitor ~4,000 hosts and about
 8,000 to 10,000 services before we started running into scaling problems
 on a single box.
 Not quite at 4000 hosts, but we are using Nagios with the nsca client. Works 
 great.

 I seemed to recall that running in cli always showed a response back, but 
 there's nothing now. Using 1.8.9.2.
 I have my number at draytel set up to dial my mobile if asterisk is down 
 and it keeps doing it as if it's down.
 I setup my server as DMZ in the router, as my old one was. Tried with 
 firewall off.
 
 Any ideas?
 
 I just had a look at debug info and when I dial out I get a
 busy/congested status back. I can see registration packets going out
 but no replies.
 
 Well I'm not sure why but I just stopped asterisk for a few minutes
 and then restarted it and now it registers

 There is no free lunch.  There is no such thing as an easy-peasy regulatory

 Becoming a CLEC is a totally different business model than the one you're in,

 It's really almost a different vertical.  You should become a CLEC only if 
 you want to become a CLEC, not if you want to be an ITSP with a lower cost

 There are some non-interconnected CLECs out there that exist for the sole

 many things you can do switchless, muxless, DACS-less and not interconnected

 Yup, that part I got. What I am not clear about is how to set up the DID to 
 go to my URI. When I select manage DIDs and click on the one I want to 
 change, I see the following options for routing the DID
 
  
 
 x SIP/IAX - [main account] IAX2/10 - with my account number
 
 x SIP URI - SIP:mysi...@myuri.com:5060
 
 x System - Hangup
 
  
 
 There are several other options but they are not selectable for me because I 
 have not set up to use them.
 
  
 
 I used to have the routing set to SIP URI where I was able to specify my URI 
 where the call was routed to. But with the SIP/IAX option I do not have that 
 ability. 
 
  
 
 I am missing something fundamental here. My asterisk has the iax.conf and 
 extensions.conf entries ready to receive calls from voip.ms, but I don't know 
 how to tel voip.ms to send the calls to my asterisk with the IAX protocol. 
 
  
 
 I understand this is probably a question for the voip.ms folks, but since a 
 couple of people mentioned earlier that they were rocking with IAX, I thought 
 it would be an easy question for them to point me in the right direction.

 I'm about to start building my asterisk server and I can't seem to find 
 anything that discusses the pros and cons of installing the OS (Fedora 15) as 
 console only or GUI, ie install KDE as well.
 
 
 If you want an OS that is going to be supported a year from now, don't use 
 Fedora.
 
 Go for CentOS which is essentially Red Hat Enterprise, Fedora is pretty much 
 beta RHEL.  It's EOL is one year from my understanding.
 
 You want to install the very minimum as most people would agree, why do you 
 think you need a GUI.
 
 Best practice is to only install the bare minimum on a server.
  
 So, other than a bit of disk space, is there any reason why I shouldn't 
 install KDE when I set it up ?
 
 It has and will cause issues.  I have installed KDE or whatever but booted to 
 init 3 for a couple of machines.  I could go to init 5 if I had to, but I 
 never did had to.  I don't see a single pro, but there are many cons.
 
 What benefit do you get from KDE?  Why do you want it.  Is this just going to 
 be an asterisk server or a desktop?
  
 
 Is there any great disadvantage to running the server in init level 5 (ie 
 KDE, xorg, etc) running in the background, but not being logged in, versus 
 init level 3 ? (Or whatever they call these things these days..., ie F15 uses 
 systemd...)
 
 FWIW, my server hardware will sit on a server rack in the utility room.  I 
 might drag a display and keyboard down there once in a while to troubleshoot 
 and/or do maintenance, but mostly I'd ssh in and probably use a remote 
 desktop app to work on it.   
 
 How does remote desktop help you over an SSH CLI?
  
 FWIW, I'm OK doing things via the CLI, but sometimes its really nice to have 
 graphical tools.
 
 
 Ok, I can understand, I used to be like this for a while.  I am a huge fan of 
 Webmin for a GUI.  It allows for almost everything and for me, it is better 
 than KDE or anything else.  It is just a webpage with tools attached.  No big 
 potential problem there.
  
 I look forward to your input.
 
 Thanks
 
 
 I have been using Vyatta (paid for with phone support.)
 
 It makes for the most powerful Asterisk platform you can imagine.  There is a 
 learning curve but I love what I have put together.  There are howtos 
 everywhere and if you buy licenses, you get excellent support and online 
 training courses.
 
 It is a very firewall/Router.  It handles everything from OpenVPN, awesome 
 security features, IPS, and even QoS, wireshark.
 
 I put webmin and NTOP on these machines as well.  Vyatta has become my new 
 platform for Asterisk.
 
 Check it out http://www.vyatta.org/documentation
 
 There is very little you cannot do, but don't have to use the features if you 
 don't want to.
 
 Vyatta is also a company like Asterisk.  Vyatta is the baby of former bigtime 
 corporate Cisco guys.  Asterisk is the baby of former Adtran execs.

Re: [asterisk-users] sip attacks

2011-07-31 Thread Robert-iPhone
hard to equate sip attack to ping performance.. Run mtr for a bit.
Also try tcpdump or wireshark or tethereal.
If you are really paranoid recycle all your passwords

 How can I tell if the poor performance is due to sip attacks?   I don't see
 any reg attempts in my asterisk cli.  I use to get frequent attacks but
 fail2ban seems to be taking care of that.

 Perhaps an other suggestion...
 Re-install asterisk on a other piece of hardware.
 There are small boxes that consume less than 5 Watt.
 If you put that on your UPS, it will last longer.
 
 Other one, ever thought of an alternative power source?
 Either solar of conventional?

Re: [asterisk-users] Securing Asterisk

2011-07-23 Thread Robert-iPhone
Such a pointless argument. The same problem can happen on any voip platform 
including freeswitch.
Again it's a knowledge thing.
BTW if you were paying attention to your logs or practiced good admin skills 
you would have seen the attacks and stopped them.
I swear by fail2ban and other hardening techniques. If you honestly think you 
can just run the box out in the open after running a yum / apt or
rpm command you are in the wrong position.
Know this is going to sound harsh but you deserve the pay cut if not 
termination.

 I'm not sure I understand your statement.  Because your customer was hacked
 for $50,000 and your pay was cut in half, it is a result of Digium (or the
 Asterisk project) 'hiding from the real world'?
 
 Your previous point aside, may I ask how your client solved the problem? 
  I'm assuming they are still operating an Asterisk box without the patches
 you have requested.

Re: [asterisk-users] Cisco IP Phones and Skinny in asterisk

 Dear Warren;
 
 Please, keep all discussions to the list.  There's no need to email me 
 personally about this. 
 
 snip
  
 cmterm-7942_7962-sip.9-2-1.cop.sgn (which is written that it is SIP IP Phone 
 load) and cmterm-7942_7962-sip.9-2-1.zip which is written that it is SIP IP 
 Phone firmware files only. So what is the difference between them the load 
 and the firmware?
 
 The .sgn file is basically just a zip container that the Cisco Call Manager 
 uses.  You'll want to grab the zip file, extract the contents of the file 
 into your tftp root directory.  The latest firmware that I've used was 8.5.2, 
 in which most everything I needed worked for me.  I don't know specifics 
 about the later versions of Cisco's SIP releases.
  
 Now, when I need to do the upgrade for the Phone, then I have to determine in 
 the xml files the needed firmware?
 
 You should have, at least with firmware 8.5.2, the following files in your 
 tftproot directory after unzipping the zip file:
 
 apps41.8-5-2TH1-9.sbn
 cnu41.8-5-2TH1-9.sbn
 cvm41sip.8-5-2TH1-9.sbn
 dsp41.8-5-2TH1-9.sbn
 jar41sip.8-5-2TH1-9.sbn
 SIP41.8-5-2S.loads
 term41.default.loads
 term61.default.loads
 XMLDefault.cnf.xml
 SEP[_MAC-ADDR_].cnf.xml
 
 I provide samples of the last two files on the blog post mentioned earlier.  
 The last file, that starts with SEP, should contain the actual mac address of 
 the phone you are trying to provision.  So, for example, it would be 
 SEP0003C9DD5624.cnf.xml, if the mac address of your phone was 0003.C9DD.5624. 
  The example files are pretty much all you need, just go through them and 
 change any location specific variables (such as _USER_, _IPADDR_, or 
 _PASSWD_) to the proper values for your environment.
 
 Once you've got your tftp server setup properly with all of the appropriate 
 config files, plug your phone in and follow the instructions at the bottom 
 part of my blog post that explain how to get the phone reflashed to the SIP 
 image and registered to your asterisk server.

 I don't know of any ATA that will do GS
 An RJ-21 is the designation for a 66 block with 25 pair connector on the side
 GS is available with many channel banks though a T1 card and channel bank 
 might be overkill for your application.
 Is this to go into a legacy switch?
 Most have line cards that can be easily switched to Loop 
 
 Is this in the US, or ???

 that system can also handle IP trunks, though the equipment might not be 
 available to you or outside your budget window
 
 How does this relate to Asterisk, or does it?

 I’ll have to look at that then – as I thought the card actually said 
 “Ground Start” on it.. I may have missed or it was scratched off the word

 The SV8100 can do either ground or loop
 Assuming you can access the system it can easily be changed.
 
 Programming manual here:

 Manual_1.pdf
 
 the original installer may have locked it down, but it CAN be changed.

 Ya – customer is on a nice NEC SV8100.. The card is a ground start card.. 
 they are currently being fed by a Cisco IAD2431 w/ RJ-21 punchdown 
 cross-connect.
  
 But that IAD2431 uses T1/E1 as WAN.. They are doing away with the T1 and 
 want to use Ethernet for wan…
  
 So IAD2431 would be great – but if it only allows T1/E1 for WAN – I’m shot.

 Anyone have recommendations for a gateway / ATA for business that can do 
 GroundStart? Preferably with an rj-21 – but okay if not..
  
 
 I don't know of any ATA that will do GS
 An RJ-21 is the designation for a 66 block with 25 pair connector on the 
 side
 GS is available with many channel banks though a T1 card and channel bank 
 might be overkill for your application.
 Is this to go into a legacy switch?
 Most have line cards that can be easily switched to Loop 
 
 Is this in the US, or ???

Re: [asterisk-users] Cisco IP Phones and Skinny in asterisk

2011-06-13 Thread Robert-iPhone
I also had trouble w/ these phones at first. There was a DHCP option (?81?) 
you'll have to google it.
The phones would not talk to tftp until I set dhcp option.
The console aux cable is easy to build and VERY useful

 Bilal,
 
 I suggest you turn on logging on your tftp server to see what files are 
 actually being requested, and if the the tftp server is dishing them out... 
 Try adding a few v's to your tftp setup:
 
 File: /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
 Line to change: server_args = -s /tftpboot -v -v -v
 
 Look in /var/log/messages for the output. 
 
 Also, I believe your 7942G has a console/aux port which is a serial port, you 
 can learn what is happening as the phone boots up with that too. 
 
 Good Luck! 
 
 Mark

 Dears;
 
 The Asterisk version is 1.8.3.2
 
 The Cisco IP Phone is 7942G and it is running now skinny.
 
 The used TFTP is tftp-server which is installed in fedora.
 
 I placed the following two files (but look like it was not taken from the 
 TFTP, as nothing appeared in the messages), but I am able to to ping from 
 the asterisk box to the vlan that the Phone is connected, so no problem in 
 the reachability:
 
 
 SEPB8BEBF22AB62.cnf.xml
 xmlDefault.CNF.XML
 
 Are the files name correct? Or the Cisco IP Phone 7942G are not working fine 
 with Asterisk or the tftp-server?

 Hi All;
 
 Can anyone advise if using Cisco IP Phones
 
 Which model(s) are you planning to use ?
 
 
 in skinny protocol is fine or not? Or it is better to
 use it in SIP
 protocol?

 SCCP works better than SIP in my opinion as there are more
 features.
