[asterisk-users] analog fax extension dialing out
I would like to setup my fax extension through freepbx to NOT have to dial 9. I will never dial internal numbers, so all I want it to do is pass the digits to the trunk. Is that possible with freepbx and if so, how is it accomplished? Thanks in advance Sean Garland, V.P. Siskiyou Technology Consultants 510 N. Mt.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Phones that work well through NAT
So how do you get a Polycom phone to work with * over NAT? I can't seem to get it to work. If I forward ports, I can get one-way audio, but that’s it. Looking at a packet capture, it appears that my phone is trying to send data to the internal address of the * server, which is of course, not available from the private side of the NAT lan... I have a polycom soundpoint IP 500.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Phones that work well through NAT
So I have * box shorewall/linux NAT firewall internet - WRT54G with openwrt - IP500 I have 5060, 4569, and 1 through 2 forwarded to * box from internet. I have tried everything I can think of on the wrt to get it to work but it appears, looking at tcpdump that my phone is trying to get to the * box (I can get one way audio with port mapping in the WRT) using the 192.168.x.x address it has as its internal interface... Is there a way to force the IP500 to use the public IP of the * box for RTP? Then it should work...

I have a polycom soundpoint IP 500. You don't do anything to get it to work through NAT. If your * box is behind NAT you need to screw around a little, but for situations like this: * box --- [internet] --- [nat dsl router] --- IP501 all you do is set 'nat=yes' on the * box, in the IP501's peer setting. That's it. It even works with multiple IP501s behind the same NAT DSL router. If you have a stupid NAT box that closes ports off too quickly or plays too many games with the packets you may need some additional configuration (shorter registration expirations, etc.) but just buy a decent NAT box... WRT54Gs work just fine in their default configuration, for example. -A. ___ --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 -- No virus found in this incoming message.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Beeps and noises during calls
This hit it right on the head - the tdm card was sharing irq with the nvidia and yukon lan adapters. What a pain it was to get them off - had to trial and error the position of my raid card and tdm card and disable everything. I think its fine now, could not reproduce the problem tonight. To anyone experiencing issues like this make sure you check irq sharing. I have been dealing with this for quite some time, and getting the tdm card on its own irq, it is now working correctly and quietly on an ASUS mobo. Thanks again guys!!!

Occasionally I get calls that register asterisk on the caller id, which I am assuming means that the caller id info is not there. Is there a way to have those calls route through IVR so I don't have to deal with them? Typically they are sales calls.

[Asterisk-Users] Sip transfers
My polycom phones have a transfer button on them and it used to work, now it puts the call on hold, you are allowed to call the other extension and tell them the call is there, but when you hang up, the call stays on hold, and the extension you are trying to transfer to gets nothing.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Parking extension not working
Okay, lets start over... I have basically a simple parking.conf, I use 701 as the parkext because of Andy Powells suggestion, I use a range of 702-710. I have in my [sip] context and include = default and in the [default] context, I have the stock include = localcalls which has on include = parkedcalls. When asterisk is loaded and I type show dialplan at the console, I get a list of what appears to be all the extensions available to me and their respective contexts. Nowhere in that list is an extension 701. Now when a call comes in, my Polycom phone rings and I answer it. If I want to park the call I press the conference button, and type 701, which then gives me a busy signal for a few seconds, and the call is terminated. I ran a sip debug and did the same procedure, and I can see that the polycom phone requests extension [EMAIL PROTECTED] but then there is a 404 not found error. Am I doing something wrong in the transfer procedure? When I dial # on the polycom phone I get an instant busy, which I assume means that my phone doesn't like that digit.

[Asterisk-Users] Caller id and callback
Is there a way to append a 91 in front of all incoming caller id numbers? What I am interested in is this - when a call comes in and the caller ID comes across, it is in the format 9165551212. That would be fine, but if I want to call them right back, and I choose that call and 'dial' on my phone, it fails because it hasn't dialed a 9 first. I assume also that if there was a 9, it would still fail because SBC hasn't figured out how to automatically add the 1 (like my cell phone does).

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Multi-line help
Thank you all for your responses. Since I was a phone installer (previous life) and installed Lucent Partner and Merlin systems, I was on the key system mode of thinking. On the Polycom phones each line button is a registration, so I wonder how I could program a SIP registration to speed dial a number? Would that be done through exten.conf like: [button2] Exten = 1,dial(zap/g1/5551212) ??? So then, carrying over to key system terms, I would basically be setting up line pool buttons... Basically with my small office (2 phones, and one * box with 2 x100p cards) I would just use the first button (or whatever) for my registration with my * and call it good... I am thinking of proposing this system to my partner corp which would entail around 13 extensions and 6 lines... How would I give someone upstairs the ability to view if each user was on the phone or not? -- should probably be a new thread Currently they have 18 button phones that are programmed with the incomming lines, then the users (LED's glow when user is on). This is so much fun! (no really!) Sean -Original Message- From: Rich Adamson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 05, 2004 6:55 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Multi-line help Sean, Basically I guess I am thinking of the traditional key systems approach which is to have the CO lines appear on the phone. The problem it appears with SIP (not really *) and the particular phones, is to have the reporting. I guess what I was looking for was to have the buttons not only represent the incoming lines, but to also show their status (busy, hold, etc...). As you've already mentioned, what you've described is a key system, and not a pbx. (There might be an open source key system out there somewhere.) On that note, what (typically with SIP/*) are the multiple line phone buttons used for? I know you have to have at least one for access to the asterisk system, but what is the point of the multiple registrations? Several reasons depending upon the actual requirements... 1. Small office, Customer Service appears on line 1, President on line 2. Answering line 2 with an appropriate messages (when he's not around) is different then answering line 1 as a Customer Service person. 2. Shared tenant service: five different businesses in the same small complex. The receptionist has all five lines on her phone, and answers with an appropriate message for each business when their lines are unanswered. 3. Home-boy (no asterisk) subscribes to two different VoIP providers with two different rate plans. Line 1 registers with provider 1, and line 2 with provider 2. You choose which service you want based on your knowledge of what your trying to accomplish (not necessarily programmable if an * system was included). 4. On the Cisco 7960, I have one of the line buttons programmed as a speed dial to a certain extn as I'm calling it often. 5. Remote intercom: place a speaker phone by the front door and configure it for auto answer. When the doorbell rings, push one of your preprogrammed buttons to speak to who's at the door. 6. You could probably program * to open the garage door with one of the buttons. ;) As Steve pointed out earlier today, there are many ways to accompish the same function within asterisk, therefore some of the items listed above might be done a different way. That's fine.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Message waiting indicator
Thanks, the phones that I have Polycom Soundpoint IP 500's. In the specific config file for the phone itself, there are some lines that have to do with MWI and there are three settings to set.

What is that all about and how does it affect the extensions.conf and voicemail.conf?

(I'll leave that up to you to figure out whether that is a feature of use to you.) Asterisk will occasionally look in the /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/3008/INBOX directory (where 3008 represents the extension number), and if a certain file exists, send a sip message to the extn(s) that you defined in sip.conf as mailbox=3008.

There can be bad echo with those things. The echo canceling effect you are hearing comes from the Polycom phones - they dynamically learn from the echo at the beginning of the call and adjust the echo cancellation accordingly. We are using a Mediatrix SIP gateway now - no echo at all.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Multi-line help
Basically I guess I am thinking of the traditional key systems approach which is to have the CO lines appear on the phone. The problem it appears with SIP (not really *) and the particular phones, is to have the reporting. I guess what I was looking for was to have the buttons not only represent the incoming lines, but to also show their status (busy, hold, etc...). On that note, what (typically with SIP/*) are the multiple line phone buttons used for? I know you have to have at least one for access to the asterisk system, but what is the point of the multiple registrations? Thank you to all.

Maybe a more in depth example would help. In my (limited) experience, I have seen two types of multi-line uses 1. The phone has a number of lines (usually) two. If the first line is busy, the call rings on the second and so the user has the option of putting the first on hold and answering the new incoming call or letting it ring out. Normally the user has only one advertised extension number (and the second line may not even have its own unique extension #). The second line is often used for inquiry calls or if the primary line is busy. Usually the phone selects the first available line when making a new call. 2. The second type of multi-line use I have seen is where one phone has lines for multiple extensions and those extensions may be represented on multiple phones (shared line). For example, the phone of a personal assistant may have a line for them and their boss. The multi-line button in this case may often shows the status (ie: busy) of the extension as it is 'shared' among multiple phones. Depending on the configuration, if the extension is called, it may ring on one or more of the phone lines that support that extension. Even in this case, the phone often has a default line to use when the handset is picked-up to make a call. Asterisk will support the type 1. above as long as the handset support multiple lines (which in your case it does,) However, case 2, I do not believe is supported by Asterisk at the moment - you can make the line ring, but you will not be able to show the status of the line on other phones. In addition, with a SIP phone, the phone will also have to have a way of receiving the notification for the status of the line (busy, not busy.) - not all SIP phones support this, but looking through the Polycomm manual, it seems they do. - Original Message - From: Sean Garland [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, January 04, 2004 7:18 PM Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Multi-line help I am looking for common practice ideas on how to handle multiple line phones.

[Asterisk-Users] Message waiting indicator
What is required to get the mwi to work? Is it more of a phone subject or *? I have the mailbox= line in sip.conf, but only one extension is named, and in some of the examples, I have seen that there are two... What is that all about and how does it affect the extensions.conf and voicemail.conf? Thanks again. Just some background as you start seeing my lists, I just started my own business this year (open 1 day officially so far) and I chose, back in November/December to use * as my phone system. Currently I am using it as my main phone system, and have voicemail configured, with two lines, and two Polycom phones. I hope to post my entire experience on the wiki or something when I am satisfied that I am far enough along... Great product, but the docs need some work. I would be interested in helping with that when the time comes. Sean Garland Siskiyou Technology Consultants 205 N. Mt. Shasta Blvd. Suite 100 Mt.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Polycom Sip Registration
Hey, I am currently working on a Polycom 500 phone Asterisk solution, and the key is definitely to use the xml config files that Matt spoke of. That combined with an FTP server (setup like the sip docs say) work very well in getting the phone to do what you want. It then becomes getting the config files for Asterisk that will make it all work.

[Asterisk-Users] Multi-line, multi-registration phones
Title: Multi-line, multi-registration phones I have hard phones that are capable of handling three calls at once. That is setup (apparently) through multiple registrations. My question is has anyone done this and what is the proper way of doing it? Do I have to setup (for 2 phones that have three lines) 6 sections in my sip.conf and setup 6 extensions to handle the registrations? Also, if I found by searching the web sample code for making both sip extensions ring when a call comes in, but what if I had 100 extensions? Seems like the string would get pretty long, is there a way to put all extensions in a single group and ring the group? All kinda is the same question. But thanks for the answer anyway Sean Garland
[Asterisk-Users] X100p always busy - update
Title: X100p always busy - update Well, after bummin around thinking I had bad fxo cards, I finally discovered that I was loosing two phones in my home when I had the cards plugged in Turns out the jack I had plugged into, was wired for two phones (line 1, green/red and line 2, yel/blk) and I also was using a 4 wire phone cord for the connection. It turns out that the x100p cards are wired in such a way internally that if you are running a 4 wire phone cord to them, that you might short out between the two lines at the jack (which worked separately with phones and computers) and get funky results.. Moral of the story is to always use two wire phone cords with the x100p fxo cards. Problem solved, and I was able to continue my development. Thanks Sean Garland
[Asterisk-Users] X100p problem
Title: X100p problem I am having a problem with the x100p cards. It doesn't matter whether the card is in the machine or not, all I get is a busy signal when calling. The Asterisk box doesn't give me any errors and doesn't show that any call is coming through. I removed the cards from the machine completely and they still give busy signal when dialed. Any ideas? I must say that after dealing with the ordering process with Digium, and now the seemingly broken cards, I have to say that I completely frustrated and unhappy with deciding to go with digium. I think that Asterisk is probably very cool, and will do what I want, but it took three weeks to get my cards and the people at digium won't email to save their lives. Anyway, please help with the card problem as I feel that I am out another week and this was supposed to be running last week Thanks Sean Garland
