[asterisk-users] e164 Format Numbers

2008-05-01 Thread Rod Bacon
This is probably a very simple question, but I can't for the life of me work it 
out. I'm trying to use Asterisk as a PTSN gateway to OCS (and believe I have 
all the SIP issues sorted), but OCS wants to dial in e164 format 
(+613blahblah). Because Asterisk sees the + in the SIP URI, it doesn't want 
to match anything in my dial plan, not even the S extension in the nominated 
context.

Am I missing something completely obvious?

[asterisk-users] Best phone for easy provisioning

2007-02-08 Thread Rod Bacon
Does anyone have any recommendations for a phone that has easy to
understand/implement central provisioning? I've used CISCO 79XX phones,
and they're great (but too expensive). I like Grandstream phones, but
their provisioning sucks. 

 

What is everybody else using in large environments where individual
config is not an option?

[Asterisk-Users] AGI and Video

2006-06-13 Thread Rod Bacon
I've been using Asterisk for over a year now, and think I've pretty much got 
it nailed form a voice perspective. We have just purchased a couple of Video 
phones to start experimenting with IP video, with a view to eventually 
building an IP media platform, such as Intel's HMP.

I have record/playback working in Voicemail, but am wondering what status 
Asterisk's AGI (specifically the record/playback fuctions) are at.

A couple of other things that I'd like to be able to do with video in the 
short term;

1. Build a video menu system to overlay an IVR (eg. press 1 for blah, press 2 
for something else, etc.)

2. Connect to an H.264 (or other codec) stream (eg. take a streaming feed from 
security camera, and attach it to an extension in the dialplan). I currently 
do this with audio, so I don't see video as being a huge extension to this.

Has anyone got any useful links or documentation on any of the above?

I just got my 1st batch of GXV3000's. I can attest that the speakerphone is

 These would be ideal if the speakerphone isn't as terrible as the GXP-2000.

[Asterisk-Users] Simple windows / web Asterisk user software?

2006-05-29 Thread Rod Bacon
Our windows users are looking for a simple application to permit dialling and 
transfer from Windows desktop (or web page). I've looked at everything 
mentioned in the WIKI, and most are either not appropriate, or are not 
maintained any longer.

I've used Flash Operator Panel, and quite like it, but I don't believe there 
is a way to have a per-user view (so people can only manage their own 
extension) so It's not really appropriate.

ADM (Asterisk Desktop Manager) is close to what I'm after, but is still a 
little BETA for my liking.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

 Hi Kerry, I'm also using grandstreams on a few places, have the 'same'

 can do with Cisco's)

 You can use the phone's built-in Distinctive Ring Tone: setting
 (Advanced settings), but I'm not aware of any 'wildcard' you can fill in
 there, I only got it to work when filling in an 'exact' number.

 It could be that the next firmware (should have arrived end of oct)
 gives us distinctive ring tones and working hint leds.. Let's hope..

 If you do find a way to get any working, please report back to the list,
 meanwhile, i'm eagerly waiting for the firmware :)

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Upgrading 1.0.9 to 1.2 beta

2005-11-13 Thread Rod Bacon

I have personally done this recently, and my advice is definately DO IT.

In my situation, I noticed a marked improvement in echo and general audio 
quality.

I too had gain settings that were out of whack compared to what others had 
experienced, but as long as your following the documented methods (ztmonitor, 
etc.) then whatever works for you is fine.


One word of warning though, when I went to 1.2Beta2, my gain settings were all 
out of kilter again. Calls were suddenly far too quiet. I ended up setting them 
all back to 0 (you'll need to perform your tests all over again).


This may be because of the different default echo canceller in the Zaptel 
drivers? Anyway... good luck.

Hello all,

I'm contemplating upgrading a client's asterisk system from 1.0.9 to 1.2
beta to take advantage of some of the new echo cancellers in the later
zaptel packages. Problem is, I'll be doing it without physical access to the
box and without being able to personally test the new echo cancellation for
them, so I'll be relying on information they provide me with.

Their setup involves a Rev. I TDM400 card with 3 FXO modules connected to
standard BT analogue lines. They've been complaining about echo for some
time, despite the multitude of options I've tried in zapata.conf to limit
the echo problem.

Here are the current zapata.conf settings:
echocancel=yes
echocancelwhenbridged=yes
echotraining=800
rxgain=12.0
txgain=8.0

(rxgain and txgain calculated by running ztmonitor on a number of different
calls over a period of a few days, aiming to keep the levels in the middle)

1) Is an upgrade to 1.2 likely to help at all?

2) If yes, which echo canceller is most likely to yield favourable results,
and are there any changes I should make in the conf file?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Chris

Re: [Asterisk-Users] DSL router with QOS

2005-11-10 Thread Rod Bacon

What's the point?

You can prioritise as much as you like at your own end, but as soon as it leaves 
your premises and enters the 'net, all bets are off!


Even the contention ratio of the DSL circuit (as provided by your ISP) can kill 
you.

QOS is really only useful in a point-to-point scenario, or in a meshed network 
that honors QOS on all links.


If you really want to experiment, grab an old PIII for $50 off e-bay, and setup 
a linux box as a router behind your DSL modem. You can play with QOS as much as 
you like then, without forking out $500.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] HDLC errors on PRI

2005-11-08 Thread Rod Bacon
The blanket statement that it's a motherbord or card problem is thrown around 
far too readily IMO. This is often just another way of saying that I have two 
(or more) pieces of hardware that don't play partucilarly nicely together in 
their default configuration, but I'm too lazy/busy/scared (I'm not accusing 
anyone here!) to sort it out.


Linux offers a great deal of fine-tuning of the PCI bus and the interrupt 
subsystem, and you can get asterisk/zaptel to work well on most hardware with a 
little effort.


Over the last six months, I have been through this extensively, and lost a lot 
of sleep in the process. I now have systems that I'd call solid.


Start with digium's recommendations with regard to IDE tuning (HDPARM), 
framebuffer support, ACPI, and APIC. There is a document on their website about 
optimising your system to support their hardware. Then, look into SMP IRQ 
Affinity (if you have an SMP system, and wish to leave APIC enabled). You can 
also search for PCI latency, and see if this helps.


Also, different versions of asterisk and zaptel can make a HUGE difference. I 
have had most success with 1.2Beta2 on my PSTN gateways, whilst still running 
STABLE on my IVR and VOIP servers.


If you have a card that can be upgraded to the new firmware, do it. I've had all 
3 of my 405P cards upgraded, and have noticed dramatic improvements in both 
performance and reliability.


Use zttest every time you make a change, and also make sure that you 
unload/reload zaptel, the card drivers and asterisk each time you make a change.

Actually, it's usually a motherboard or card problem that causes HDLC

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Intel Desktop MotherBoards Unsuitable for Digium Boards

2005-11-08 Thread Rod Bacon
I have come across things like this before, but it's generally not an issue if 
you simply disable the onboard stuff that you don't need and select the PCI 
slot(s) wisely.


I had the situation where my mobo allocated fixed IRQs to each slot, and shared 
 IRQs between some of them (I can't remember the exact IRQs, but for arguments 
sake; 10, 11, 3, 5, 10, 11 in slot order - 6 slots, 2 sharing IRQs.)


In most cases, IRQ 5 will be unused by anything on the mobo, giving one fixed, 
unused interrupt. This is where I placed my zaptel card.


By disabling my COM ports, I was able to free IRQ3. You can also disable stuff 
like USB, Parallel, Audio, secondary IDE, etc. etc, which can all free-up IRQs.

latency, etc. etc) and have good zttest results with no frame slips, 
pops or clicks.


After my PSTN gateway servers have been running for a few hours, I 
notice that
some missing audio creeps into the start of each call (makes no 
difference if

the call is ZAP-ZAP native bridge or ZAP-IAX). At best, you miss the first
syllable of the first word. At worst, you can miss the first 3 or 4 
seconds of
audio. Further investigation shows that asterisk is lagging after the 
second leg
of the call is answered (i.e. the time taken to bridge the channels gets 
longer). If the resultant call is a Zaptel native bridge, then the 
remaining audio is fine. If the resultant call is not zaptel natively 
bridged (eg. call is routed via another server, or asterisk remains in 
the media stream for another reason) then significant delay exists from 
one end of the call to another (simply put, asterisk seems to slow down).


If I restart asterisk (even without removing and reloading zaptel 
drivers), calls are OK again for a period (typically around 12 hours). A 
workaround is to simply to install a cron job that periodically restarts 
asterisk when it's idle,  but this is a less than ideal solution from my 
perspective.


Something is definitely changing over time. A memory leak? Runaway 
process? I
really need help in trying to troubleshoot this, as I've run completely 
out of

both patience and ideas.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Stopping Asterisk from forwarding calls?

2005-11-07 Thread Rod Bacon
Sounds to me like that you want to log the phones into a queue, then simply 
logout the phones that you don't want to receive calls.


If you were tricky, you could write a macro to log them in/out as they 
divert/undivert to/from voicemail. Eg. Dial an extension number to divert to VM 
(and log them out) then when they return, dial another number to do the reverse.


Then simply route the calls to the queue using a ringall method.

The first time I asked this to the list I didn't do a great job of it so
I'm posting again with more details.

Problem: when ringing multiple extensions, if one user has their phone
forwarded directly to voicemail, it stops the whole group from ringing
because the voicemail picks up immediately.

Also, after hours incoming calls are to ring all extensions so anyone
can pickup. But if one person in the office has their phone forwarded
the same problem occurs.

What we need is for asterisk, when ringing multiple extensions, to
completely ignore the forward requests and just ring the remaining
phones.

Reading the source code I see there are two parameters for channels,
allowredir_in  allowredir_out. These offer me some hope that Asterisk
has the ability but I couldn't figure out what these do or how to make
use of them (I'm not a C programmer so maybe its just a red herring?).

[Asterisk-Users] Re: [Asterisk-biz] New asterisk web gui for small/medium sized businesses

2005-11-02 Thread Rod Bacon

You asked for feedback, so here goes.

Let me start by saying that I applaud your effort at getting involved in the 
project. I wish i could write a scrap of code, as there's literally dozens of 
things I'd like to contribute.


Now... onto AWG.

Personally, I'm not sure where this tool fits. It's too newbie for techos, and 
too techo for newbies. There are a multitude of other gui config tools floating 
around for SME customers, and some nifty user tools (like FOP, for example).





snacktime wrote:
I posted last week that I would get out a release asap, so here it is.  
Before I start in on putting up an actual website for it I thought I 
would put out a beta release to get things going.


At this point there isn't a name for this project yet, as it's primarily 
an internal piece of software that we have been developing.  For now 
I'll call it Asterisk web gui (AWG).


AWG has a particular focus, which is to provide an easy to use interface 
for managing and monitoring asterisk, as well as a nice web interface 
for voicemail users as well.  We are trying to make it as easy to 
install as possible.  It plays nice with existing asterisk 
installations, and it won't overwrite any of your existing asterisk 
configuration.  If you already have ruby installed on your system the 
setup time should be around 15 minutes.  Once you have done one or two 
installations and know what the steps are, installation on a new system 
should average 5-10 minutes at the most.  We have tested it on Freebsd 
and Debian.  It should work on windows also.


AWG is not intended to help you install asterisk and do your basic 
configuration.  There are other software packages that do everything 
from start to finish such as AMP.  AWG is dictatorial software.  We will 
not include features by consensus unless they also fit our vision of 
what a tool like this should include.  That said we want all the 
feedback we can get, particularly from businesses who are looking at it 
as a solution they might deploy for their clients.  Just realize that it 
has a particular focus, and that's not going to change.


There are also a few features not currently present that are on our todo 
list to get done asap.  A basic interface for viewing CDR records, zap 
channel configuration, and a page to monitor real time information such 
as channels, peers, queues, etc..  

There is a basic online demo at http://69.25.136.214:3000.  The 
administrative login is user admin, password 'changeme'.  The user login 
is username demo, password 'changeme'.  At the moment there are not a 
lot of script templates installed, but the ones that are there will give 
you an idea of what you can do with the provisioning features.  At the 
moment the demo is running in development mode where the errors are 
verbose and the code is reloaded for every page, so it's not as fast as 
you would see in a production environment.


The setup guide and distribution file are at 
http://catalog1.paymentonline.com/~chris


You can send any feedback to my directly at [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] or on the list.

[Asterisk-Users] Missing audio from Zaptel channels

2005-11-01 Thread Rod Bacon

I have cross-posted this all over the place, and sent a copy directly to digium
support, in the hope of getting to the bottom of a problem that has me pulling
my hair out.

I currently have 2 production PSTN gateway servers, running asterisk 1.2beta and
TE406P cards (upgraded 405 cards, with hardware echo cancelers that we recently
purchased on recommendation). We went to the beta version after installing the
cancelers, as 1.0.9 kept segfaulting with the cancelers installed. Our PRIs
terminate on a DMS100, at the same premises where our servers are co-located.

Also in my farm, I have a dedicated IVR server, a VOIP gateway (SIP/IAX/H.323)
and clustered MySQL servers running as FastAGI servers, to remove processor load
from the PSTN servers. All servers are connected via gigabit Ethernet, and
use IAX trunking for inter-server communications.

I have been through _everything_ possible to be sure that I don't have any
zaptel timing/irq problems (framebuffer, apic, acpi, smp irq affinity, irq
latency, etc. etc) and have good zttest results with no frame slips, pops or 
clicks.

After my PSTN gateway servers have been running for a few hours, I notice that
some missing audio creeps into the start of each call (makes no difference if
the call is ZAP-ZAP native bridge or ZAP-IAX). At best, you miss the first
syllable of the first word. At worst, you can miss the first 3 or 4 seconds of

 but this is a less than ideal solution from my perspective.

Hi,

I have TE406P (2nd gen card with echo cancellation on-board).
We still notice quite often echo on our PBX that is connected to one of
the spans on TE406P (with calls routers to PRI provider on another
span).

I've tried to experiment with the echo cancellation on asterisk.

I enabled echo cancellation in Zapata.conf to see if I can improve the
situation and users started reporting warping bubble (description I
got from one of the users) sound on calls from PABX-Asterisk-PRI (and
other way).

I was expecting that asterisk would disable its echo cancellation once
it find on-board module.

The strange thing I noticed that after system reboot things are now
better. 
Although I cannot say for sure because the system was ever rebooted 2

times.

Can anyone shed some light on this? Has anyone had similar problems?
Or point me into right direction for troubleshooting?

[Asterisk-Users] OT: Samsung DCS 70

This may be a little off topic, but I'm hoping to find someone who knows 
something about integration with legacy phone systems, specifically a Samsung 
DCS 70.


Our current service provider charges us a packet each time we want to make a 
small change, so I want to avoid using them to completely reprogram the entire 
system when I front-end it with an Asterisk box over the Christmas break.


Does anyone out there have any experience with this model system? I (think) I 
have the correct software to re-configure it. I can get the password (and 
dial-in number) or access to the local RS-232 port.

2005-10-16 Thread Rod Bacon

Short answer: No, but... Long answer: Yes, and...


Essentially, there are *certain* internal modems that will handle this function, 
but basically what you're talking about is an FXO card. You can pick up one for 
little outlay on eBay.


Do a search on eBay for X100P. Then read the wiki for information on zaptel.

I posted something on this a week ago, at which time I was told that this was an

For some reason, some of my CDRs (both to CSV and MySQL) are being written with

CLID of the _last_ caller to access the specific ZAP channel in question, not 
the current one.

Hello,

After solving the other low hanging fruit audio issues in our Asterisk
PBX, we are left with occasional cases of severe echo which we have not
found a solution for yet.

Our system:
- Asterisk 1.2.0-beta1
- TE110P on a PRI
- TDM04 and TDM40, but these are unrelated to current echo issues
- Fedora core 3
- Echo canceller KB1

Most calls have minimal, acceptable echo levels. But occasionally, we
get a call where the echo is delayed by a substantial amount (sometimes
around 250ms), and sounds as loud as the remote party.

One example: when one number (local to the same CO as our PRI) calls us,
the echo on our end is unbearably bad. When we call them, No Problem.

Am I right in guessing that we're unlikely to solve this in a
system-wide manner on our end, and at best we'd have to convince
the phone company they're misconfigured, for one remote phone
number at a time?

Some other specific questions:

- Gain tuning: Is the ztmonitor quantitative target value 14500 or
  14844?  These two sources conflict on this point:
  http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+zapata+gain+adjustment
  http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2004-November/071301.html
- Is the difference between 14500 and 14844 big enough to worry about?
  If my gain settings are incorrect, am I going to be seeing
  quantitative values a few hundred away, or ten thousand away
  (for example)?
- Is gain tuning effective using CO or asterisk-local milliwatt sources
  useful on a PRI line? Presumably, the path to the local CO's milliwatt
  line is all digital, and the loopback path to call our own internal
  milliwatt source will almost definitely be all digital, so where would
  the loss come from?
- Assuming gains are tuned correctly, or don't matter for the PRI, is
  there any other hope I have for solving these echo issues?

Thanks,

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Wrong caller id in CDR

2005-10-11 Thread Rod Bacon

That I can live with.

The main issue I have is that A calls B through a bridged zaptel call. The CLID 
on channels used by this call both show A's CLID - no problem.


This call ends, and our system receives a test call from C on one of the 
channels used in the 1st call. Even though our application can see the correct 
CLID from C, asterisk still wites A's CLID in the CDR.


This test call does nothing, except hangup as soon as it sees the call. Maybe by 
not answering the call, or allowing any time before hanging up, asterisk is not 
able to update the CLID on the channel?

If you are trying to do billing based on this info then you are out of

Obviously, this would only be done for zap channels configured with their clid 
set to asreceived.


It would also only be desirable after any deadAgi scripts had run, or even by 
using a command as part of a deadAgi.


(I already tried to set the callerid to  in a deadAgi, it didn't work)

That I can live with.

The main issue I have is that A calls B through a bridged zaptel call. The CLID
on channels used by this call both show A's CLID - no problem.

This call ends, and our system receives a test call from C on one of the
channels used in the 1st call. Even though our application can see the correct
CLID from C, asterisk still wites A's CLID in the CDR.

This test call does nothing, except hangup as soon as it sees the call. Maybe by
not answering the call, or allowing any time before hanging up, asterisk is not
able to update the CLID on the channel?

Yeah, meaning that when A calls B with callerID of 123 and B transfers
A to C and while doing that the callerID is changed to 456 (callerID

If you are trying to do billing based on this info then you are out of
luck, as this is not accurate, rather look at account code as an
option.

I posted something on this a week ago, at which time I was told that this was an

For some reason, some of my CDRs (both to CSV and MySQL) are being written with
the wrong callerid. As best as I can determine, they are being written with the
CLID of the _last_ caller to access the specific ZAP channel in question, not
the current one.

Has anyone ever seen this before?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Problems with Wait SIP 486 DND

Or explained more clearly

The fallback rule is n + 101, so your voicemail busy priority needs to be 103 
 (2 + 101).

This is the full dialplan for this extension -

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Zaptel Line Build Out

2005-10-09 Thread Rod Bacon

Maybe I need to be a little more specific.

I know what signal attenuation is. What I don't know, is how LBO (and 
specifically the implementation of it as used in the zaptel hardware/software) 
helps the situation.


My servers are co-located with my carrier, and my PRI circuits are run through 
several patch panels, jumpers, etc. to another room, where they terminate on a 
DMS-100. I have asked the carrier for an estimated cable length, so i can 
correctly set the LBO.


In the zaptel config, what is meant by DSX-1? What is CSU?

Why would I use a -7.5db, -15db or -22.5db LBO?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Zaptel Line Build Out

2005-10-09 Thread Rod Bacon

Yeah... sorta.

So the CSU settings may be used when the E1 is pulled down to my premises, and I 
have a short cable connecting directly to the CSU device. I don't know why I'd 
need to change the LBO settings in that case, but I guess that doesn't really 
matter to me at the moment.


In my case, I am approximately 40-50 metres (130-165 feet) from the switch 
(according to the telco's engineers), so an LBO of 1 in my span definition 
would theoretially be correct.

[Asterisk-Users] Latency on bridged PRI calls

2005-10-06 Thread Rod Bacon
Nobody has been able to answer this. Not even Digium at this stage, but I'm 
hoping someone here, smarter than I, will be able to.


We are running some TE406P (upgraded 405Ps) cards performing mainly PRI bridged 
calls.


After a server is brought up, calls sound absolutely perfect.

Over time, delay (latency) creeps into the calls. What is really weird about 
that is apparently with the new Digium firmware, the native bridge is pushed 
down to the card, meaning the call never leaves the card (never hits the PCI bus).


If this is the case, the latency must be being introduced in the card/driver.

A restart of asterisk with removal/reload of the card driver fixes the problem 
(temporarily).


This is in a production environment, and this is driving me insane. I'm about to 
try Sangoma cards, as I feel I'm really getting nowhere.

[Asterisk-Users] Clearing Caller-ID from Zaptel Channels

2005-10-05 Thread Rod Bacon
I have recently noticed that if you do a zap show channel XX on an on-hook 
channel (eg. no current call), then the channel shows the last known CLID.


Under normal circumstances, this is overwritten when the next call comes in, 
providing a caller-id is received.


If there is no caller-id, the call, at least from a cdr perspective, seems to 
inherit the identity of the previous caller.


Is ths a bug, or by-design? Can this behaviour be modified?

Accepting call from 'XX' to '' on channel 0/2, span 1

My other servers are running either the 1.0.9 stable tarballs, or 2.1 beta.

They all include an additional line in the logs after the above line saying...

-- Starting simple switch on 'Zap/X-X' 

On these servers, there seems to be a 2-3 second delay (approximately) between 
the time the call is received and the first dialplan command is executed.


Is everyone else experiencing this?

[Asterisk-Users] Digium hardware echo canceller, zapata.conf settings?

2005-10-04 Thread Rod Bacon
Do the echo cancellation settings in zapata.conf have any effect when hardware 
echo cancellation is installed on a 406p/411p?


How can I tell if the echo is being cancelled by hardware or software?

We've been running a PRI now for over a year with Asterisk (every single call 
in and out is through two Asterisk boxes, including faxes) and while the 
software based echo cancellation is more than adequate, we'd get the 
occassional edgy echo and very infrequently get full-out holy shit echo.


So far the TE406 has eliminated that entirely.

Anyway as I said I just wanted to post here and tell the world that at least 
as far as I have been able to determine, the extra cost of the hardware echo 
can is *well* worth the money.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Echo after running for several days?

2005-09-27 Thread Rod Bacon
There was a thread a while back about echo on calls increasing over time on FXO 
lines. I am finding this with TE405P cards as well. I had hoped that V2 of the 
firmware would fix the problem, but it would appear not).


I know that there is a workaround script to restart asterisk and reload zaptel 
drivers, but i was hoping for a more 'solid' solution.


Does anyone know of one?

Anyway I am interested in understand what is happening.



Your issue is very likely the size of the zaptel jitterbuffers setting. If


the zaptel driver is not


immediately available to accept a frame of data it places it in an


internal queue of pending writes.


If that queue is full then the write is refused by the zaptel layer and


then silently discarded by


chan_zap causing a gap in the audio once it is played out of the zaptel


card. If you crank up the


debug level you will probably see 'Write returned -1...' (aka. EAGAIN)


debugs that mostly correlate to


the pops and clicks. Note that the zaptel driver legitimatly (if perhaps


not appropriately) also


refuses data when the channel is muted, such as during DTMF generation and


at other times, so not


_all_ EAGAIN debugs are a sign of problems.




This makes perfect sense but again some issues of the problem do not match.
I set debug at level 9 and  there is no message of errors. Another thing I
do not understand is why the same configuration:

PAP2 - LAN - Asterisk - TE100P  works perfect, and instead of LAN
using internet generates the problem. Shouldn't it be the same for both
configs?

The only difference I see is that the rtp packets came from another Ethernet
card, but if I call to terminate calls with another carrier using that eth
works fine.

What is clear is that jitterbuffer=16 corrects the problem.

One more thing: no matter what codec I use, G729 or G711 the sound clicks
are almost the same.

Is anyway I could debug at RTP level in asterisk to see what is happening
and check if there is packet loose?

Thanks

Alejandro

[Asterisk-Users] TE405P V2 - Fantastic!

2005-09-25 Thread Rod Bacon
I anyone has any hesitations in upgrading their 405P (or 410P) to V2 of the 
firmware, read below;


I installed one today (turnaround time around 2 weeks to Australia, inc. economy 
 freight in both directions... impressive!) and have noticed immediate, 
significant improvements.


Audio levels are better (have set tx and rx gains back to 0.0) and missed frames 
have gone (popping, clicking, etc.). Echo on bridged calls has also gone (I have 
now been able to disable echo cancellation on bridged calls, too!).


I'm now rushing to get my other 2 upgraded.

BTW: Make sure you have 1.0.9.2 zaptel drivers. The card didn't work with 
1.0.9.1 drivers!


I do NOT have the echo canceller module installed, as 90% of my calls are zaptel 
bridged calls.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] monitor peak channel use

2005-09-12 Thread Rod Bacon

I use Nagios to monitor everything on my network, including * channel usage.

Google for the nagios check_asterisk plugin as a starting point.

It's a simple perl script that could be run without nagios if desired (eg, from 
a cron job). It can connect to a server via the management interface, check 
channel usage and perform an action based on usage figures.


We also have another script that does a similar thing, but connects and stays 
connected. It polls the server(s) every X seconds, and writes the usage into a 
MySQL database, so we have a live list of channel usage across all our servers.


It also writes RRDs...

I use PRI for inbound calls, but outbound goes out via SIP, so the

I need to know when the potential exists for inbound calls via
PRI/Wildcard to be blocked because there are no more channels.

Obviously asterisk would never know, since the call is blocked at the
Telco, or is there still d-chan activity?

Anyone know of a way to do this?

[Asterisk-Users] IAX Trunking Weirdness

2005-09-08 Thread Rod Bacon

I am having trouble getting trunking to work between a couple of my servers.

All servers are running 1.0.9 stable version, and are working perfectly. All 
have a Zaptel card of some description, so timing is not a problem. Each server 
has a definition for each other server, using RSA auth, and qualify=yes (just so 
I can see ping times). trunk=yes is on globally, AND in each peer/friend definition.


IAX2 SHOW PEERS shows a (T) next to each server, indicating that a trunk will be 
established.


Servers on the same LAN segment seem to trunk OK. (IAX2 TRUNK DEBUG shows 
meaningful info).


Conenctions where 1 server is behind a firewall works fine, but trunking does 
not seem to work. The only other difference is the codec. On the remote servers 
(the ones behind the firewalls), I'm running G729 (the Intel one). The LAN-based 
servers all talk to each other using G.711.


Anyone have any ideas?

For those who are interested, the problem is being caused by IAX using the wrong 
 outside IP address as it's source address.


(Multi-homed firewall with numerous virtual interfaces). The workaround was to 
add additional definitiions to the other servers, so the connection will be 
trunked from the originating (incorrect) address.


Apparently there is a patch against CVS HEAD which allows the definition of the 
source address on a per-peer basis.

I am having trouble getting trunking to work between a couple of my 
servers.


All servers are running 1.0.9 stable version, and are working perfectly. 
All have a Zaptel card of some description, so timing is not a problem. 
Each server has a definition for each other server, using RSA auth, and 
qualify=yes (just so I can see ping times). trunk=yes is on globally, 
AND in each peer/friend definition.


IAX2 SHOW PEERS shows a (T) next to each server, indicating that a trunk 
will be established.


Servers on the same LAN segment seem to trunk OK. (IAX2 TRUNK DEBUG 
shows meaningful info).


Conenctions where 1 server is behind a firewall works fine, but trunking 
does not seem to work. The only other difference is the codec. On the 
remote servers (the ones behind the firewalls), I'm running G729 (the 
Intel one). The LAN-based servers all talk to each other using G.711.


Anyone have any ideas?

Just contact digium and request a RMA for a firmware upgrade and an

[Asterisk-Users] PRI in and out

2005-09-06 Thread Rod Bacon
I am wanting to front-end a legacy PBX with an asterisk box. I have done plenty 
of asterisk work over the last 6 months to PRI circuits, but not with a PBX 
being involved.


I know I can use asterisk and digium cards in this manner, but do I need 
separate cards for the PRI - Asterisk side to the Asterisk - PBX side, or will 
a 4-port PRI card do the job? (I already have a spare one of these).


In other words, can I use SPAN 1 as a timing source, then provide timing to the 
PBX connected to SPAN 2 of the same card?


Any advice, or sample configs, would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] PRI in and out

2005-09-06 Thread Rod Bacon

It DOES help, thanks.

Except for this



the only difference between the first set of channels (1-23) and the
second set of channels (25-47) is:
signalling=pri_net
group=1
context = fromprovider
channel = 1-23
signalling = pri_cpe
group=2
context=fromavaya
channel=25-47


I thought the signalling setting was from the perspective of the * server, not 
the other side. For example, my PRIs to my provider are configured as pri_cpe, 
as I am the CPE.


Your example seems to suggest the other way around.

[Asterisk-Users] Cisco 7940 - Disappearing Clock - SOLVED

2005-07-27 Thread Rod Bacon
P.S. I _had_ read the other posts that suggest changing to unicast sntp mode. 
This didn't help. I eventually setup a new ntp server on my LAN, and used it as 
a sync source. Everything seems OK now.


Obviously a problem with my other ntp server.

Cheers.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] problems with compiling asterisk-oh323

2005-07-25 Thread Rod Bacon

I suggest you read the installation documentation again.

The error is telling you what the problem is.

You don't have pwlib and oh323 source compiled (using make opt only) and 
sitting in the root/src directory. If it's somewhere else, edit the 
asterisk-oh323 makefile to reflect the correct location.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] PRI got event: HDLC Abort (6) on Primary, D-channel of span 1

2005-07-20 Thread Rod Bacon


2 - Check your span line in your zaptel.conf.  You should be receiving 
timing, not giving it, when using a PRI (generally).  Change the second 
number from 1 to 0.  Save and restart asterisk.  (span=1,0,0,esf,b8zs)




I think you've got this cocked-up. A 0 in the second position tells zaptel to 
internally-clock the circuit, and ingnore the clocking information from the 
provider.


Why would you want to do that?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] DELL 2800 : PCI Parity error

2005-07-10 Thread Rod Bacon

I too had this problem, on a 2850, as well as the occasional missed IRQ.

I went through all the usual zaptel tuning stuff Disabled fb, disabled ht, disabled acpi (left io-apic enabled), then moved irq affinity of zaptel 
card to second CPU so all interrupts from zaptel are on their own. My systems now run close to 100% in zttest, never miss an irq and don't seem to 
generate PCI parity errors any more.


I don't know if I've fixed it, but you should really go through the whole 
process anyway.

[Asterisk-Users] HDLC bad FCS

2005-07-04 Thread Rod Bacon
I have 2 servers, configured identically. Each has a TE405P and 2 PRIs. One server was experiencing crackly audio on one circuit, accompanied by HDLC 
bad FCS messages. The telco recabled and moved me to another port on the DMS-100. The audio is better, but there are still bad FCS problems on the 
span. I have moved the PRI in question to the other server, and the problem does indeed move with the circuit.


There are no zaptel timing/interrupt problems present on either server. The fact that 3 PRIs are error free and that the problem moves with the 
circuit tells me that there is still a problem on the circuit.


The telco believes that there is nothing more that they can do (provision a 
complete new circuit?).

I don't get HDLC aborts, so the problem may not be _that_ serious. Does anyone have any comments? Would a newer (unstable) version of Zaptel drivers 
help? Would line-build-out parameter in zaptel.conf make any difference?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] HDLC bad FCS

2005-07-04 Thread Rod Bacon

I think I need some help here. I didn't understand much of what you just said 
there.

I though HDLC was a Layer 2 protocol? How can it have a location? FCS is a frame check sequence.. right? So I'm getting data out of sequence (or 
frames are missing from the sequence?)


My gear is in a data centre, with the DMS-100 switch in the next room. Does 
this help?

What is BER?


Carlos Alperin wrote:

I believe that you need to analyze the packets at your provider site. They
should be able to do that. Is your HDLC located on your location or on your
provider. This test should be done where Asterisk is running, because is
where the problem is reported.

Start to look for Line Analyzers for HDLC, in order to check BER.

If BER is high enough, then the problem is internal on your server.

[Asterisk-Users] No BUSY on PRI

2005-06-30 Thread Rod Bacon
I'm using a TE405P and stable version of Zaptel. When I call a BUSY number on my E1 PRI, I don't get a busy status. The caller hears a busy tone, but 
the CDR logs a NO ANSWER when the caller hangs up.


Is this normal for this version of Zaptel?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Zaptel card AND Ztdummy together?

In case anyone is interested, loading Ztdummy AND a card driver at the same

We heard intermittent echo/feedback on PRI channels.

It's a Digium single-port job. No other timing sources aviailable (the * box IS 
the pbx).



qrss wrote:

If so, then I'm thinking their card should have detected the loss of
service and switched to it's internal clock. Do they have a secondary
clock source available across another circuit? Perhaps a tie line to a pbx
that can be configured as a secondary?

[Asterisk-Users] Scratchy audio on Bridged PRI Calls

2005-06-20 Thread Rod Bacon

I have a number of servers with TE405P cards. The servers are DELL 1850's (which I _NOW_ 
see are listed on the digium not recommended page because
of the ethernet interface).

The problem I have is only during bridged calls.

If I place a call into a service hosted on the box, or out to a VOIP phone, audio is 
crystal clear. If place a call through the box (a bridged PSTN
call)  the calling party hears some form of distortion when the other party 
speaks. Almost like a buzzing/crackling sound.

I have been right through the interrupt sharing issue (disabled ACPI, APIC, 
Hyperthreading, Frame Buffer, etc. etc.) and am getting good results in
zttest. I see NO IRQ misses or any other errors at the console.

Does anyone have any other ideas?

[Asterisk-Users] ee1000 Ethernet in Dell 1850

2005-06-20 Thread Rod Bacon
Digium's site now lists the Dell 1850 as a potential problem server, as it uses the intel ee1000 Ethernet chipset (as do a majority of servers in the 
market!).


To my knowledge, ALL dell servers with Gigabit interfaces now use the same chipset. Does this mean the Digium cards can't be used in Dell servers 
unless you disable the onboard ethernet?


I don't want to disable the onboard interface, as I use the IPMI management facility for lights-out management. I have a 2850 that doesn't have any 
audio problems (the reason that I contacted Digium in the first place), so I'm wondering if Digium are simply guessing at problems.


Does anyone know anything specific about the supposed incompatibilities with 
the ee1000 kernel module?

There seems to be an ever-growing list of situations where you can't use the 
Digium cards. This is a concern to me.

[Asterisk-Users] Grandstream ATA Toasted

2005-06-15 Thread Rod Bacon
A BETA firmware upgrade toasted my ATA286. It now has limited operations. It will get an IP address via DHCP and register to the last configured SIP 
server,  but the web interface is gone as is the voice config menu. Apart from registration, there doesn't appear to be any other SIP functionality.


An Ethereal dump does not show the device trying to grab a new firmware via 
tftp on bootup, so this is not an option either.

Can it be fixed, or is it now rubbish?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] CRM integration (was RE: CallerID)

This sounds remarkably like an IM problem

We're in the process of building a CRM frontend that uses Jabber as the 
IM mechanism. The Asterisk server sends the URL via Jabber (PCs 
authenticated as extension number). The Jabber client (custom, written 
in Flash) receives the URL and automagically follows it.

An IBM sales rep once told me...

I can give you RELIABLE, FAST and CHEAP... any two of them at once.

[Asterisk-Users] International Caller ID?

2005-05-26 Thread Rod Bacon
We have antiquated caller ID schemes here in Australia. We barely 
support numbers from other local carriers, let alone OS ones. Certainly 
no names either.

[Asterisk-Users] Problems trying to compile H323 from CVS-STABLE

2005-05-23 Thread Rod Bacon
Tony, I have managed to compile both versions (on separate servers, 
obviously), and have them working. My question is specifically related 
to which one do I choose?.


To get the internal version working, I used the oldest versions of the 
libraries that I could find. Specifically, the 28th Aug 2003 builds from 
voxgratia.org (PWLib 1.5.3 and OpenH323 1.12.3)


When I first loaded it, I DID get output from h.323 show codecs... 
now, strangely, it's empty. Also, h.323 show tokens reveals nothing. 
Call establishment, audio, call teardown all seem OK, but all calls seem 
to be in ULAW, no matter what I specify.


The oh-323 channel seems OK, but doesn't like to play with certain 
codecs. I'm also concerned with the file handle situation you described. 
How can I debug this to see what is happening? (I'm not a programmer, so 
be gentle!)

[Asterisk-Users] more than one company hosting their PBX on the same machine?

2005-05-22 Thread Rod Bacon
Sigh... read the wiki. Search the lists. This has been answered at least 
fifteen times.


You don't need multiple instances of *, just set up your dialplan properly.

Hint: Contexts are the key.

[Asterisk-Users] Which H.323 for Stable?

2005-05-22 Thread Rod Bacon
I'm new to H.323 and I have noticed that there are two separate channel 
drivers for * available - the inbuilt one, and oh-323. I had trouble 
compiling oh-323 with the current cvs stable, so I tried the inbiult one 
(with specifiec recommended versions of openh323 and pwlib). It compiled 
cleanly but I am told that it is not recommended (unstable?).


Can someone with first-hand * H.323 experience offer any meaningful 
advice as to which way I _must_ proceed? This is for a live, busy, 
deployed environment. H.323 will be used to connect to an upstream 
provider (possibly CISCO gear?).


Thanks in advance.

Make sure you have disabled framebuffer, apic and acpi.

[Asterisk-Users] ISDN Clock Source

2005-05-12 Thread Rod Bacon
I apologise in advance if this is a silly question, as legacy 
telephone technologies are really not my forte.

Is there an E1 card that can provide clock source? (E.g. Make my 
asterisk server look like a telco to my legacy PBX system?).

What I am trying to achieve is the following:
--ISDN---| Asterisk |---ISDN| Legacy PBX |--

[Asterisk-Users] Database of actve calls (as per astguiclient)

2005-05-11 Thread Rod Bacon
I have the need to maintain a pseudo-realtime database of active calls 
across a number of asterisk servers. The main purpose of this is in 
determining where to route calls (e.g. don't send calls to a server with 
no free lines) and also for monitoring/recirding calls.

I know that astguiclient does this by telnetting into the * server 
management interface ever 333ms and updating a MYSQL database.

Does this place much load on the * server, or the DB server?
Will this sort of model scale to 30 servers, each with 120 Zap channels?

[Asterisk-Users] TE410P on Dell 2650

2005-05-04 Thread Rod Bacon
Are you running vga=normal in your lilo.conf? (disable frame buffer) and 
running kernel WITHOUT apic and acpi support? (append='noapic acpi=off).

Making these changes, and disabling all other unused resources (to 
eliminiate IRQ sharing) got me to 100% consistently on a DELL 2850.
