[asterisk-users] Need Help
Hi all! In need of some serious help. We currently run Trixbox and Cent Os on a 2u server for our small business's phones system. We are using some Polycom Soundpoint IP phones. The whole thing came crashing down over the Holidays and as of right now that's about all we have working right now are the phones. The reason I joined this list is because I was hoping to get our external paging intercom system back up and running (it runs off of a sound card but cant get it all configured correctly) and to be honest I have no clue where to start. I've tried reading some online guides but nothing.

[asterisk-users] Asterisk SIP attacks and sshguard
Hello, We had been seeing SIP-guessing attacks on our Asterisk server here. While it wasn't that hard to write a once-a-minute cron job to spank the lusers, that runs once a minute and creates little spikes in the usage and I/O graphs, and is slower to respond than I'd really prefer. I felt that it'd be much cooler to get something more comprehensive put together. We don't use fail2ban because I don't like having to install python. sshguard is a high-performance compiled C application that can run off a log file or a pipe from syslogd to sshguard, meaning that it can respond a lot more quickly than once a minute, and works with very modest overhead on the host system. It also has features such as touchiness, so that it can get tougher on a miscreant as time goes on; my own shell script is naive in that once it passes a threshold, there's just a permanent rule generated. This worries me if I ever have a situation where a legitimate remote client gets messed up and tries the wrong password or something like that; sshguard does a much nicer job in this regard. In any case, my initial attempts to create rules for sshguard didn't work right, quite possibly because I don't often work in LEX/YACC. I submitted a request to the sshguard guys suggesting new rules. http://www.sshguard.net/support/submission/detail/49ce7182028d8b6f3e3d/ and on their mailing list, a little more: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=F4E10075-5D93-43B4-B73A-1FD217BE130D%40sshguard.netforum_name=sshguard-users In particular, they're looking for log examples of some of those messages, but I have no idea how to generate the conditions that would cause these messages. I'm also not sure if there's a way to disable color codes in the Asterisk log files; we log indirectly via BSD's logger # asterisk -vvv 21 | logger -t asterisk so it may be thinking that the console is color-capable. We use this method because this forces them through the syslog mechanism; we need that for centralized logging, and it's handy for things like sshguard too. Specifically looking for examples of (or how to generate) 1) .*No registration for peer '.*' (from HOST) 2) .*Host HOST failed MD5 authentication for '.*' (.*) 3) .*Failed to authenticate user .*@HOST.* If anyone who is more familiar with the attacks or how to generate these messages would give me some assistance, or chime in on the sshguard-users list, that'd be most appreciated.

Re: [asterisk-users] Door Contacts via Asterisk?
I've done a remote door unlock system in the past. The customer had an existing magnetic lock system that utilized push buttons on the wall to release the magnetic locks on the doors. They already had this system, and the associated door controller. I used an APC AP9210 Master Switch network power controller to solve the problem. I plugged the power brick for the door controller into the AP9210, put the AP9210 on the network, and wrote a script that caused the device to cut power to the door controller for 5 seconds by setting an SNMP variable. I coupled that shells script with some dialplan logic that asked the caller for a pin, then using the callerid(num) value as a username, checked the username/pin combo against a database.. If the combination passed, the shell script was called. If it didn't, I looped back to the request for the pin, for up to 2 more times, then disconnected the call. I know Cyberdata has some SIP based door intercoms that have lock relays built in, as well. I have no idea what the cost for them is, though.

[asterisk-users] SIP 800 Origination/Termination - International
Anyone have a good provider for International (US/Canada at least) 800 termination/origination? I have a customer that had us port one of their 800 numbers and apparently didn't realize that they had published that number in Canada as well. Our current origination/termination provider can't handle Canadian inbound calls to that number, so I need to find another provider that can.

[asterisk-users] Asterisk 1.6 Displaying BackGround() in call trace but no audio is heard from caller

Also, this has been tested from two different carriers: We're getting
an average of 2/10 call success rate.

[asterisk-users] Incoming SIP Calls dumped to non-existent VM no matter what extensions.conf setup is used
Hello. I have been beating my head over this problem for about 6 hours now. I have a SIP peer, who I register to (successfully), who should be directing all incoming calls at my [default] stanza in my extensions.conf: [ Context 'default' created by 'pbx_config' ] 's' =1. Wait(1)[pbx_config] 2. Answer() [pbx_config] 3. Background(welcome)[pbx_config] 4. Background(and)[pbx_config] 5. Background(thank-you-for-calling) [pbx_config] 6. Background(conference-reservations)[pbx_config] 7. Waitfor() [pbx_config] 8. Hangup() [pbx_config] Unfortunately, no matter how I configure extensions.conf or sip.conf, the phone call always ends up saying: Extension is unavailable. Please leave your message after the tone. sip.conf: [general] register = NPANXX:passw...@service_provider_ip registertimeout=29 registerattempts=0 defaultexpiry=60 [DID_NUMBER] type=peer context=default host=SERVICE_PROVIDER_IP authuser=DID_NUMBER fromuser=DID_NUMBER fromdomain=SERVICE_PROVIDER_REALM remotesecret=SERVICE_PROVIDER_PASSWD secret=SERVICE_PROVIDER_PASSWD dtmfmode=rfc2833 disallow=all allow=ulaw qualify=yes I am attempting just to get the starting point where I can direct users through my asterisk box, but it won't direct users to the 's' extention, only to some voicemail box. I've removed the voicemail config.

Re: [asterisk-users] Big time system
Cary- Asterisk may carry you a way down this road, but in the end, it's not, and was never designed to be a class 5 telecom switch. There are people working on a carrier grade implementation that may or may not be fully class 5, but I don't know what the status is on that. I haven't gotten an answer from Digium on that lately. What you're looking for are local gateways that backhaul to a central switch site with equipment that can support traffic from multiple rate centers in multiple LATAs. This gets complicated quickly, especially if your rate centers are spread across multiple states. You'll want some type of Multiservice Access Platform (MSAP). Zhone makes the MALC and their newer MXK box. Adtran has the TA-5000 shelf. Neither are what you'd call cheap. Both will provide T1 access, DSL, SDSL, VDSL, bonded, and even ethernet access to the customer over a variety of transport options, including copper pairs. The Zhone box already has SIP backhaul for voice traffic, and the Adtran shelf should have it soon. Today the Adtran box has GR303 backhaul for voice. All that said, what you're proposing indicates to me that you're likely to need to establish CLEC certification in whatever states you'll be operating. That in itself is not a short process. It can take anywhere from 90 days to a year depending on the state, and expect to spend from $10K up on legal costs per state alone. Insurance, financial health, and other requirements vary by state as well. The ILECs generally won't even talk to you about establishing colo and gaining access to the copper loops until you get the CLEC certificate. Generally the process starts by getting the certificate, then negotiating an ICA, then trunking services, then colo. Different carriers will be easier to work with than others, but they are all a pain. ATT requires you to have a $10M general liability policy in place before you can even submit a request for a space availability report. All this is not to say it can't be done, but to point out that it's a very difficult process to negotiate, even when you have done it several times. Without experience it can be close to impossible. I'd suggest getting a good telecom/clec consultant and a good telecom lawyer (I know a few) involved early in the process, or you'll end up spending ALOT of money. Hit me off-list and I can give you more info. Joe On 6/24/2010 11:24 PM, Cary Fitch wrote: We are an asterisk user... small time system 50-100 users or so. But, we have an opportunity to get into a big time telecom activity. It would have 2000 to 30,000 user lines per city, and we would like to have those brought back to a central location for control and because transport can be more economical than remote site rentals, maintenance and personnel. We could take the local lines into concentrators (TNTs or equivalent) and bring back IP to a central site, or put servers at the remote cities. Our object is to serve as a central office switch for subscribers on standard telco service loops. This isn't a How many lines can I handle using a Belchfire 2600 processor? type question but a request for pointers to big time systems. There would be no IP path to the end user, just copper.

Re: [asterisk-users] Slightly OT: trying to mangle packets from Asterisk for a multiple ISP setup (reward)
The simple fix your missing is to simply put your NICs on different layer 3 segments. In a configuration wherein multiple adapters are bound to the same layer 3 network (subnet), most IP stacks will only send traffic out the first NIC to bind to that network. I've seen this many times in data centers where server guys configure the NICs in the same subnet for load balancing. With some IP stacks, even arp responses are only sent from the first NIC to bind to the subnet. This creates problems at layer 2, especially in large traffic volume situations. Since a technically correct arp response is sent - the mac address in the response is for the NIC to which the arp request was sent - from the first NIC to bind to the subnet, the switch(es) never actually learn where the MAC addresses for the other NICs are located. This creates a situation where all traffic for these NICs is broadcast to all ports in the VLAN. Joe On 6/1/2010 10:27 AM, Mike wrote: Hi, Reward offered: 50$ (paypal), and I am sure this is a ridiculous thing I have missing. My goal: On a 2 NIC Asterisk box, to send packets that came in Asterisk on NIC1 back to NIC 1, and NIC2 back to NIC 2. (basically, send them back the same way they came from). I have been doing what was recommended to me and mangling packets left and right. I have reached a point where I am stuck, and can`t imagine why this last little step isnt working. As you know, Asterisk sends all packets from the default IP (in my case, NIC 1 IP). So connections to NIC 1 work fine, to NIC 2 they don`t. I therefore put in some routing rules to help me. Some example, a phone (remote PBX setup) coming in from 65.77.77.77 works fine because of these (slightly obfuscated by changing IPs shown) routing rules: ip rule show: 0: from all lookup 255 32759: from all fwmark 0x64 lookup ISP2 (- this is key to my issue) 32760: from all to 65.77.77.77 lookup ISP2 32766: from all lookup main 32767: from all lookup default ip route show table ISP2: default via 22.22.22.22 dev eth1 src 22.22.22.21 BUT I can't reliably know where the phones come from (long story), or what IP they use (ISP1 or ISP2) to connect to me. So instead, I have done this with iptables: MARK all -- anywhere STRING match 22.22.22.21 ALGO name bm TO 65535MARK set 0x64 Basically saying to mark all packets that have the string 22.22.22.21 in it's SIP content (meaning they came in on NIC2 originally because the phone registered to 22.22.22.21) with mark 0x64. And that works fine, because another rule that LOGs these marked packets is logging them correctly. Because of my above routing rules, packets going out marked with 0x64 or those going to 65.77.77.77 should go to the same ip route (route table ISP2). Mysteriously, I see that packets going to 65.77.77.77 (using wireshark) are correctly mangled as coming from 22.22.22.21, but not those marked with 0x64. Those still go out through the default routing table. What the heck am I missing? I believe I have done my homework, but there is no more door left to bang my head on.

Re: [asterisk-users] IAX2 - providers discontinuing support
What is wrong with IAX2 protocol? If IAX2 is so much better than SIP so why providers discontinuing support for IAX2 I was with provider callwithus but they discontinue IAX2 I switched to checkbox.cc but they discontinued it as well. What is wrong with IAX2? The same thing that's wrong with a lot of theoretically superior technologies: SIP is *more* universal, and therefore if it's a choice of supporting two technologies or just one, SIP has more bang for the buck. Almost every gadget or gizmo supports SIP. Few support IAX2. To support IAX2 for the relatively small number of people who know what it is and who are running Asterisk or IAX2-capable gear may be more trouble than it is worth. ...

[asterisk-users] res fax help

We are batting around what to do for a phone system and I'm torn between a Panasonic TAW824/TVA50 and using an Asterisk implementation. I'm very strong on the networking/linux/basic hacking(old school, not criminal) side. I've downloaded the Asterisk VM and have some implentation questions before we make a decision. Of course we are running out of time because I need to order either RJ-11 or RJ-45 keystones for the plates to finish the trim out. You can use the 8 position modular jacks regardless ( misnamed RJ-45 ) so that should not stop you from finishing the trim out. Replacing the jacks down the road is (yawn). Big deal if you need to. Pick whatever works for the current deployment. You WILL be running at least Cat5e to the jacks, every jack, right? That's the problematic bit for the future - not the jack itself. You don't want to plug RJ11 into RJ45 jacks, so plan to make it work out somehow. You can always make RJ11/45 cables so RJ45 is my preference. The Panasonic systems I have used over the last 20 years are rugged, hang on the wall, connect with proper protection and forget them for years on end. They all have had dual ports that will either use a POTS single line phone, or one of their multibutton phones without any rewiring, reprogramming, and many even support one of each per port. An ideal system for a large house. I will second that the Panasonic systems are nice. They're everything you would expect in a proprietary phone system and you are not likely to be disappointed in the system as long as it offers the features you want. That said, you are forever locked into that system. I can't say I've looked much into the Panasonics since we went Asterisk here, but at the time there was a definite feeling of it being last decade's technology, and that was the better part of a decade ago. Features will just work. But the features you don't have, you will never have, at least not without a lot of hacking. Asterisk is forward-looking. Expect things not to work without some programming and configuration. Consider something simple like VoIP. With Asterisk, easy to use VoIP on either or both sides. I wouldn't have guessed years ago that one day my cell phone would double as a SIP extension. Yet it happened and it works. And look at where telephony is going. It's going to be VoIP, sooner or later. All that copper's going away. Get network-centric now and maybe you won't get stuck with a dinosaur. It's a tradeoff. Asterisk can be more work. But you can do more too. Our Asterisk announces calls by name over the intercom and lights it up on the TV's as well. Easy to do with a programmable box. Although many will disagree, for most users Panasonic systems with normal requirements work well for long periods with no problems and have lots of features. For the geek who wants to play, drive the rest of the family nuts changing things, then consider Asterisk. There's nothing saying you have to change things constantly with Asterisk. Some of us have systems that are generally untouched for long periods of time. ...

Re: [asterisk-users] FW: hi Dan
Sorry, I can't resist. How do I join the Mail List Nazi Corp? Do I have to be invited, or can I just self appoint myself? Asking neophyte questions are objected to by some, top posting by those who blast others, etc. How about leaving member chastisement to the sponsor of the list? That's unlikely to happen in most cases. Some people have no one within 250 miles of where they are to learn from or learn better by working with code than reading inscrutable examples from different versions, and other inanimate pages of examples that have wrong variables, etc. Yes. Nearly everyone can be criticized for something, Asking dumb questions, top posting, bottom posting and leaving 3 pages of crap to scroll through, answering questions that were answered 5 posts down, because they didn't review the newer messages before posting, and more. Be charitable and kind. Have a nice day. There's absolutely something to be said for that. On the other hand, there is also something to be said for making people exhaust the available resources prior to solving their problems for them. You can even be charitable and kind while doing so... Back in the '90's, I knew a really bright guy who knew Windows and Novell inside and out. He was just learning UNIXy stuff (FreeBSD in particular) and he was discovering that there was a lot of application for the stuff. He would frequently approach me, desperately seeking an answer to some general problem of some sort. I would typically give relatively vague answers, ending up essentially with a figure it out yourself. This frustrated him to no end, but he would do so. Later, he would come to me, almost always with a workable solution, at which point we would often discuss the ins and outs of several different options. His solution wasn't always the *best*, but it would always serve as a foundation for the rest. Years later, he thanked me. At the time, he didn't really appreciate what I was doing and didn't see the bigger picture. Looking back on it, I think he saw that I had always tried to aim him in a sensible direction before shoving him off on his own to figure it out. He eventually grew confident enough and capable enough that he would no longer need to ask for help. I can fix your problems for you, or I can teach you to be self- sufficient... which one is doing you more of a favor? It may seem more charitable and kind to simply give someone answers, but I do not think it actually is, at least in this sort of situation. As for the original poster? It's my impression, reading in between the lines, that he probably hasn't tried that hard. Asterisk on Linux is pretty straightforward, and MOH is probably not that rough to get running. On FreeBSD? That's a different thing. Bleh. But it's still better to do it on-list rather than selecting someone at random to go and bother. I don't think anyone will prevent you from being charitable and kind by providing answers to the guy's questions on the list though. ...

Re: [asterisk-users] FW: hi Dan
What say you to the proposal that some approaches to seeking help are so ridiculous they should not be tolerated? Community standards neither conceive nor enforce themselves. This community standard is entirely self-enforcing. If everybody thinks the request for help is unwarranted and doesn't deserve an answer, then nobody answers. If it isn't so intolerable to fall victim to that, then someone may feel inclined to help out and answer. If the volume of such requests becomes sufficiently burdensome that it exhausts those answering the questions, then eventually the equilibrium resets; those answering the questions begin to pick out the ones that they feel are worthy of answers. Years ago, I got a bit of a panicky phone call from a sysadmin at an ISP that I was loosely familiar with from mailing lists. He was rather frazzled and puzzled because he had been struggling to solve a problem during a downtime; it was something I was familiar with and had been advocating on a mailing list. He was doing something completely reasonable-seeming, it's just that what he was doing didn't work, and had never worked that way. I walked him through a different method, from memory, solved his problem. I'm positive I could have charged him billable hours, but I didn't, because I felt somewhat responsible for having advocated something rather complex that was followed by a competent admin and it blew up in his face - precisely *because* the problem and fix were obscure. The Asterisk community is great at promoting itself, but quite frankly the documentation and solutions are sometimes not all that great. It can be challenging to find the right fix, or even *a* fix. Questions *must* be expected. The community has generally been fairly successful at coping with the questions; I view the beginning of this thread to be a sign of that. ...

Re: [asterisk-users] Help with concurrent VoIP calls
By fast I mean the best Business DSL Bellsouth has to offer: Up to 6.0 Mbps downstream - Up to 512 Kbps upstream That almost sounds like an invitation to check out what business service your cableco offers. One thing to be aware of with DSL and cable modems is that there can be various ill effects as your line gets closer to its rated capacity; do not expect that you'll get a reliable 512Kbps upstream. VoIP is sensitive to loss, latency, and jitter. You may be able, for example, to only get 384Kbps reliably out of the link (before packet loss/jitter/etc wreck its suitability for VoIP). That's a good time to look seriously at a gateway package like pfSense that can prioritize certain classes of traffic while also limiting overall bandwidth. As an example, we noticed on the local business cable offering (2Mbps up) Shaped PL min avg max stddev 2.2M3 6.4 251 557 176 2.1M1 7.8 350 584 134 2.0M3 6.4 271 535 132 1.9M1 7 254 527 131 1.8M0 6 79 339 90 1.75M 0 5.9 14 92 11 1.7M0 5.4 13 77 10 1.65M 0 4.9 11 69 7 1.6M0 5.4 13 55 9 1.5M0 5.3 11 59 7 1.4M0 5 11 57 7 1.3M0 4.9 11 54 6 1.2M0 4.9 11 52 7 1.1M0 4.8 14 53 11 The max starts trending up after 1.6M (helps to graph it) and pretty much everything goes to hell after 1.75M. ...

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk on a Beagleboard?
Out of curiosity, has someone managed to run Asterisk on a Beagleboard for home-use? www.beagleboard.org As an alternative to a PC, it can be powered from a USB hub, so that would make for a compact, fanless Asterisk server. Thank you. 128m of ram 256 m flash for the 'hard drive' is not much in either catagory. And ethernet is a USB addon, not on the board. It appears to support a SD/MMC card, meaning that it can support gigs of low power storage space. Or a USB HDD for higher power storage space. 128m of RAM isn't a lot, but some people are apparently running Asterisk on 32MB Linksys WRT54GS's (OpenWRT). If you were careful and cautious, it'd probably work. The Ethernet as an add-on kinda stinks and is probably the largest negative. ...

Re: [asterisk-users] USA BRI -- any hope at all?
You might want to look into Cisco hardware, their WIC-1B-U cards work =20 fine in the US, or they did 10 years ago when I last used them for =20 VoIP. No, you didn't. :-) You might have used a VIC-2BRI-S/T-TE or one of the other voice cards... but the WIC cards are WAN Interface Cards. If only it were that easy. Used the WIC-1B-U is going for under $50 on eBay. An old 1600 =20 or 1700 series router with an IOS that supports SIP wouldn't cost much =20 either. I can probably dig up such a setup here if anyone wants one, except it won't do VoIP. Help me connect the dots here. I indeed see WIC-1B-U cards and 1721 = routers. It looks like a pair could be purchased for probably $25. How = Yeah, that won't work... does that fit into an Asterisk system? I can see how it would be used = for 128K data, but how does Asterisk pick up and manipulate the data? = Call setup? Call answering? Does the 1721 deliver VoIP data that = Asterisk can process? Does Asterisk have a channel interface that can = accept and use this? Asterisk would deal with it just as it would any other SIP-based service adapter, I would imagine. Imagine it as a large Sipura 3000, or whatever the contemporary VOIP-to-POTS gateway of the modern era is. Have a look at the compatibility chart at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk652/tk653/technologies_tech_note09186a0080111b16.shtml This will give you an idea about combinations that ought to work, I believe. Unfortunately, I don't know if any of them are cheap. We've had BRI for over a decade. It rocks. It's incredibly flexible and is not susceptible to the radio stations that are broadcasting at 50 billion gigawatts half a mile from here (POTS goes to hell). I can do fun stuff like terminating calls into a USR I-Modem, giving me the ability to do 56k remote dialup access into our local network, etc. Unfortunately, getting it to work with Asterisk is a bit of a boggle. We had considered going the Cisco route. All things considered, that has a lot going for it, but the last time I evaluated that solution, it was expensive and the configuration looked somewhat complicated, and I wasn't confident I could manage it without assistance. The other workable solution that I'm aware of seems to involve the Eicon Diva Server boards, which I've heard work. We're currently using an Adtran Atlas 550 to convert the BRI to T1 or PRI or something that Asterisk *can* handle, and this works pretty well. There are some caveats, however, such as the fact that we can not get the Adtran to originate outgoing calls with the second DN on a BRI line (incoming is just fine, though). If anyone goes the Cisco route and is willing to share information on how that worked, and configuration snippets, let me know. I'm quite happy to share what we've done with anyone who is interested in our solution. As for the people who are claiming that BRI is dead, well, not quite. I had called SBC or Ameritech or whatever they were called that day several years ago for what appeared to be a loop problem, and had gotten the oh I know who you need to talk to runaround of about twelve departments. However, recently, our Adtran 550 had baked something in its configuration, and we lost one of the BRI's. Not suspecting a problem with the 550, having rebooted it and having eyeballed the config and logs, I dialed with dread the new customer service number for ATT (which is the number they hand out for POTS repair). I was dumbfounded to navigate the automated system and then to talk immediately to a gentleman who not only told me that the line was a BRI, but also that it appeared to be fine but that they weren't seeing a D channel. Thinking it might be a fried port on the Adtran, I reconfigured to a different port, and it worked. Doh! So then I cleared the configuration on the old port (verifying that it *also* looked correct) and re-entered it, and ... it worked. Double doh! So, if anything, the support situation for BRI's has improved, at least for us here. I expect that the number of new installs is not at an all-time high or anything. ...

[asterisk-users] 'Asterisk is not thread safe' message
I recently built Asterisk from scratch on Ubuntu (Ubuntu 4.2.3-2ubuntu7). Everything seemed to build ok, but when I start Asterisk, I get the message: Warning! Asterisk is not thread safe. Is this anything to be concerned about? How can I make it go away? Is there an alternative threading library I can link against? Thanks!

Re: [asterisk-users] ISDN
With ISDN, the conversion is done in your phone Exactly. Or in the case of Asterisk, it is a 4 wire digital right into = the switch--no degradation. Even converting back and forth between = analog and digital multiple times compromises quality. Try doing a = dial-up modem across such a path. The best you will get is 20 - 30 K. A single D/A hop destroys the ability to do 56k. Successful 56k requires that there be a single A/D hop at the far end (the user's POTS interface) and then digital delivery of signal the remainder of the way to the terminating equipment. (modem - phone co A/D - digital to ISP modem bank). If you stick an extra D/A (maybe plus A/D) transformation in there, you will probably get fairly clean speeds in the upper ranges of 28.8-33.6, but that'll be it (modem - phone co A/D - digital network - phone co D/A - your buddy's modem). If you're unlucky enough to get some crummy phone co arrangement where they punt you back and forth from digital to analog and back to digital within their network, that's even worse. From an Asterisk point of view, it's interesting that you can get digital delivery of the signal, and route the signal around internally digitally, if you have ISDN. This means, for example, that our USR Courier I-Modem, which can terminate a 56K call *digitally*, results in my being able to make a 56K connection from most modern cities here in the US, without wasting an ILEC ISDN BRI line dedicated to that purpose, by having the PBX connect an extension to the I-Modem. I just dial into a general purpose number, and dial the appropriate extension, and voila, I'm on our network at high speed. This is clearly obvious to you, but I thought I'd expand for the others who might be reading along and didn't understand the implications of all- digital. IF you can get a PRI-line for the same price. Not to mention that the interfaces for PRI are about five times as = expensive. I'm not sure why. It doesn't seem like it ought to take a = lot of electronics to break down the bit stream. It may not take a lot of electronics. However, the sad truth of it all is that any electronic device produced at low volume tends to be expensive to produce. This is largely the result of costs such as retooling, and in most cases the significantly higher cost of small-run integrated circuits. For example, a PC board manufacturing house (I'll use the following shop, no affiliation, as an example, because they have transparent pricing) http://www.expresspcb.com/ExpressPCBHtm/Specs4LayerStandard.htm http://www.expresspcb.com/ExpressPCBHtm/Specs4LayerProduction.htm for a 30 sq in board. To produce 10 boards would cost $404, or $40/board. To produce 50 boards would cost $1109, or $22/board. To produce 1000 boards would cost $15516, or $15/board. Even 1000 isn't really a large run, though. You're paying premium board rates for small runs, because the shop has to stop and retool for your run. I haven't bothered to get a large-run quote, but I bet you can get that down to well under $10/board if you're ordering a hundred thousand at a time... You then have to add on assembly costs, which are typically higher than the PCB costs. It could very easily end up costing $50/board *just* for PCB and assembly, no parts included, for runs in the hundreds of cards range. The problem with telephony stuff, especially in this market, will be that the demand for a T1(/PRI/etc) interface is going to be very low. You would need to be a relatively big shop to be able to buy by the thousand, as even at one bulk buy per year, that translates to several cards departing inventory daily. I expect that some of the ISDN BRI interfaces are dirt cheap because they're popular over in Europe. I've been told that in many places, they're sold in lieu of a modem. Once you are moving product in high volumes, the pricing tends to come down. It stinks, yes. ...

On Mon, 13 Oct 2008, Steve Totaro wrote: I have done this. Why BRIs exist in the US is beyond me. If you can, don't go with BRI. Why didn't BRI catch-on in the US? Stupidity. Okay, well, many reasons. It was targetted as a business service, and the pricing models (at least locally) didn't offer a reasonable residential offering until ... I'm thinking almost the mid 1990's (1994-1995). That's when I first recall hearing about the availability of residential BRI that didn't charge by the minute, I think. The telcos had this huge amount of legacy plant installed, much of which wasn't particularly great copper. Good enough for voice. There was also lots of CO and remote equipment for which BRI simply wasn't available. I fondly remember Ameritech running BRI lines out of MILWWI10, using a bunch of repeaters, because they didn't have the capabilities (or capacity, can't recall for sure) at MILWWI45, (you know what's interesting, Google Maps knows CLLI codes!) which resulted in about 11 extra miles on a BRI circuit, and I guess it was much worse in wire miles. It's useful to remember that the phone company expects their equipment to be good for decades, and so there's a huge amount of resistance to upgrading just for newfangled data services. Now, I know that there was this huge vision in the '60's and '70's of the possibility of things like videophones, and ISDN might well have been the ideal platform for delivering something like that, but the flip side is that the Carterfone decision resulted in a booming non-Ma-Bell CPE business and Ma Bell mostly realizing that they were getting shut out of that market. Now, prior to that point, you had a situation where it was Only The Phone Guy who would bring CPE to your house and hook it up, you might dare to move the phone line or jack, but usually not. This meant that a service that was more complex to provision would still be relatively easy for Ma Bell to deploy, since it was just training and equipping their techs that was important. The end user would have had no idea what the underlying technology was. After that point, though, it would have been really hard to sell a residential BRI, unless you had equipment capable of automatic configuration, because it's hard enough for Joe Sixpack to plug in a POTS line correctly as it is. Configuring more-complex stuff, especially in the days before nifty little GUI interfaces (which requires electronic capabilities not really present until recent years) would have been rough. Despite all this, there was a renaissance with BRI in the 1990's. We had reached a point where the electronics were reasonable. The Internet did not yet exist for most people, and modem technology was 9600 or 14.4. As corporate networking and the Internet exploded, there was a willingness to pay premium prices for ISDN gear that would allow relatively inexpensive BRI circuits to attach at speeds far beyond POTS. Then we saw that fall apart, as speeds increased to 28.8 and then 56K, and for most users, that was close enough. DSL was right on the heels of that, offering greater-than-ISDN speeds. ISDN BRI was back to dead status by about 2000. You can *see* this in terms of CPE devices that supported ISDN BRI. In the meantime, the ILEC's began to truly understand the difference between switched circuit and packet data services. Many people had been using ISDN BRI as a faster and more flexible alternative to 56K DDS lines, which tended to tie up switch capacity. More people were ordering second lines, and leaving them connected to local ISP's for hours at a time, which created trunk, network, and switch capacity challenges for the ILEC's. This was devastating to the ILEC's, which typically plan capital expenditures to be good for many years, but in this case, I have to assume that the ILEC planners knew that Internet would be provided over circuits other than their switched POTS/DS0's in the near future, which would dump capacity requirements back down. They even got smacked harder than maybe they expected, as some people gave up land lines entirely, in favor of cell... In the meantime, many of the major data uses that had been envisioned for ISDN BRI have been done, better, cheaper, on the Internet. Videophone? Easy on a PC with speakers, mic, and an Internet connection, but hopelessly challenging to someone with a POTS or BRI line. Private network interconnection? VPN over Internet. Etc. This has meant that BRI has evolved towards a way to deliver telephone network with no loss, or, rather, most of the envisioned benefits are no longer likely to be exploited via BRI. So you don't see many BRI lines, and it is pretty common for those that you do see to be hooked up to a PBX, automated call handling system, etc. Further, telco departments to handle BRI's have suffered mightily. We had a problem maybe a year ago where we had suddenly broken and were unable to dial... local? ld? I can't remember, but we

The one solution I've heard, on and off again, that works with Asterisk here in the US is the Eicon Diva cards. There are other solutions. Where I am, we're unreasonably close to a local radio conglomerate that has a number of high power antennas. We found early on that RF interference was a killer, which caused me to run a lot of our telecom and data wiring in conduit. Unfortunately, we discovered that POTS lines were a hell of a mess when connected to anything more complex than a phone or two. Lots of RF interference. Church radio music on Sundays, even. So, we brought our lines in on BRI, which we've used for data and voice elsewhere. Being eternally frustrated with the lack of ISDN support after maybe 2000 here in the US (we have a bunch of interesting ISDN gear from the 90's!), I set out to see what I could do to interface BRI to Asterisk. I *didn't* go the Eicon route, because at the time it was considered relatively unreliable. Instead, we picked up an Adtran Atlas 550, which can handle ISDN BRI, PRI, POTS, etc. We have been using the Atlas as a translator to convert BRI to T1, which works moderately well, but we've seen some issues, mostly in the capabilities of the Adtran (such as an inability to select the desired SPID/DN for outgoing calls). The Adtran has some other amazing capabilities, such as providing FXO/FXS ports, and even ISDN BRI ports for other devices we'd liked hooked into our PBX. Despite that, I'd love to see an ISDN BRI solution for the US. I might be willing to test the Eicon Diva Server card... hm. ...

[asterisk-users] Any chance this is related to fastagi: received mini-frame before full voice frame
Hi, I have recently been having difficulty with cmd record where calls are not being recorded. I would like to know whether it is possible that my fastagi script is the root cause of the problem. I am using a fastagi script written in python to answer the calls, and the dialogue interaction seems to work fine, the call is successfully answered, and I can always hear the audio prompts, however recently I have been seeing a high incidence of failure to record the user generated audio, which is invariably accompanied by iax2 debug messages: received mini-frame before full voice frame. Another list user kindly explained to me in a previous message that this error message means that, if the first full voice frame never comes through, there is no data on which to base the changes being conveyed in the mini frames, and thus record doesn't have any way of knowing what to record. My understanding of agi is that it simply passes text commands back-and-forth between asterisk and the agi/fastagi/eagi script, over stdin. This would seem to imply that the record failures I've described can't be related to the agi script as the actual recording is not done there anyway. If possible I'd like to rule out agi as the culprit categorically in an effort to reduce the problem space a bit.

Re: [asterisk-users] cmdRecord issue related to iax2 received mini frame before first full voice frame?
A more detailed explanation of what the above warning means/implies, and how or why it might be preventing recordings would be greatly appreciated. A mini frame is simply a frame containing minimal information about the call itself (the meta data), and a full frame contains all of the meta-data information. Sending mini-frames is part of the IAX protocol, as a way of saving significant bandwidth over the course of a call. However, a mini frame cannot be interpreted correctly independently of a full frame. In every media stream, a full frame is send approximately once every 60 seconds, to sync the timestamps. I'm running Asterisk 1.4.11 on debian Etch. There have been many changes, bug fixes, and even security issues fixed since 1.4.11. I'd really recommend that you try something more recent (and even the latest, because we fixed 2 security issues in the latest release, 1.4.21.2). Thank you very much for this clear explanation of what is going on. The implication then is that this issue could indeed be having a significant impact on whether calls are eventually recorded? I plan to look into upgrading our distribution, but this appears to be impacting 1/10 calls coming through our system at the moment so I wonder if there is some/any way to help make sure that that first full voice frame gets sent before the miniframes get pushed through? I also wonder if there is a point after which the call is lost, regardless of whether the first full voice frame comes through? could other issues like mismatches between the system clocks on the respective machines also be impacting performance? thanks a bunch! -- Tilghman ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
[asterisk-users] cmdRecord issue related to iax2 received mini frame before first full voice frame?
Hi, I tried sending this message a few months back but never lucked into a response. I thought I'd try one more time, juicing up the subject heading a bit, as I am still seeing this behavior intermittently. I'm running several asterisk servers in combination with dundi. The servers are in different data centers, but other than that they are running identical copies of the same os image, asterisk configuration, etc. One server acts as the trunk and is used to terminate pstn calls, and pass them on to another server via dundi, which then answers the call. I recently noticed that one of the call-answering servers was responding and playing back voice prompts fine, but was failing to record any user generated audio. After opening up the CLI on this server and running a test call through it, I noticed reams of the following warning message any time audio was being played or recorded: [May 21 20:31:52] WARNING[27346]: chan_iax2.c:8020 socket_process: Received mini frame before first full voice frame [May 21 20:31:52] WARNING[27346]: chan_iax2.c:8020 socket_process: Received mini frame before first full voice frame [May 21 20:31:52] WARNING[27346]: chan_iax2.c:8020 socket_process: Received mini frame before first full voice frame [May 21 20:31:52] WARNING[27346]: chan_iax2.c:8020 socket_process: Received mini frame before first full voice frame [May 21 20:31:52] WARNING[27346]: chan_iax2.c:8020 socket_process: Received mini frame before first full voice frame [May 21 20:31:52] WARNING[27346]: chan_iax2.c:8020 socket_process: Received mini frame before first full voice frame [May 21 20:31:52] WARNING[27346]: chan_iax2.c:8020 socket_process: Received mini frame before first full voice frame I found the following related post: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2006-January/136982.html However this doesn't explain why I should be unable to record anything.

Re: [asterisk-users] Magnetic door locks
One of the last secure facilities I worked in had a motion sensor that unlocked the door for people leaving from one door. The COO was pretty shocked when I took off my belt, easily pushed it through the gap in the glass doors near the top and triggered the motion sensor, immediately opening the door to the admin side of the building. The other side did not have motion sensor just an RFID and magnetic lock. Under challenge, I grabbed a chair, stood on it, lifted the drop ceiling and cut one of the wires to the magnet, click, it opened (would be a fire hazard if door did not unlock when power was removed). I think they spent big bucks on their false sense of security I also pointed out that the data room could be accessed via drop ceiling on one side and drywall (that's tough stuff!!) on two of the three walls. You have to remember that many secure facilities were not designed by security professionals, but are instead simply areas where a company decided that they wanted to be secure long after a building was built. They call a contractor, ask for a wall, and instant secure area. Then the security company comes in, company says we want restricted access, and voila, you get a nice doorstrike and an RFID reader. Security is never absolute. You had a situation that was likely to keep typical people out of the secured area. Fix those problems and then there are others. A good crowbar is effective against a *lot* of door hardware. What, you have a nice steel door? Did you know that you can often bend the door a bit and pop the latch? Oh, you've got a latch protector? Great, even more leverage for the crowbar... etc... And walls. Sure, a drywall wall is pretty flimsy stuff, but a sledgehammer can make pretty decent work out of a cinderblock wall... You pretty much have to figure out what level of security you actually want to obtain. Putting security system wires in conduit is better than just drilling around with a bellhanger, but would it necessarily have prevented you from finding a junction box and getting at the magnet wires? It helps to have a facility built from the ground up to be secure. And even many of those don't do many of the things that they could. ...

That's really not unusual. It's not /preferred/, but that's an entirely

In general, if copper is available into a building, the telco is going to
look very seriously at the possibility of using that. If the building is
already wired and the copper tests clean, the telco will want to use that.
In most existing situations, that will already be terminated in a can with
lightning suppression and will have been crossed over to RJ21X's that are
going to whatever suites are in the building.
Since the telco will have /no/ /problem/ running the T1 over their outside
plant and up to the can on what is approximately Category 3 wire, and the
T1 signal is going to have been running alongside those same analog wires
for probably a few miles, what happens next should be obvious.
Suite 214 wants a T1. There's already a 25-pair going up there from the
RJ21X. It's second story, so do you go and spend an {hour, afternoon,
etc} figuring out how to run fresh wire, or do you notice that only 6 pair
are in use on the RJ21X, and decide to feed up on the existing cable?
Now, if you're nasty and you don't separate it (typically I see the bottom
used for data) and you don't put redcaps on, yeah, then that is just
looking for eventual trouble. And who knows, the wire may be cruddy, so
maybe you still end up doing the separate run. But it probably works.
I've seen this often enough. Would I prefer to see new cable run? Sure.
But we've all done our copper sins. I've seen a lot of things that are
uglier than that. Here's one of them:

I've got a unique situation and think it may be the lack of the Hangup command in the dialplan that is creating the issue.Can anyone elaborate on why it is, or is not, important to use hangup in the dialplan. Presently I don't have the first instance of it in my dialplan, however, I see some things in the debugging that might be cleaner if I did implement hangup I have approximately 140 extensions provisioned off this asterisk server and about 8 IVRs...So as you might expect, it is quite busy...

[asterisk-users] Echo on PRI even with H/W echo cancel
Hello, I have a PRI coming into a Digium TE122B with hardware echo cancel, but we are still experiencing echo on the first 10 seconds of a call. Is there anything that can be done about this? I have tried contacting digium support, but have not heard back from them (placed a support incident about a week ago). I see on digiums website that some of their card have a VPMOCT128 Octasic echo cancel, but the TE122B comes with digiums VPMADT032 echo canceler. Is the octastic echo cancel better? Should I look into a card with Octastic echo canceler? I see Sangoma has a single port with T1 with Octastic echo canceler or would have to move up to the dual span card to get the Octastic echo cancel on the digium card. ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [asterisk-users] forwarding pots lines
There are a couple of companies out there that make 24 port fxo and fxs boxes. If you have some unused fibers you cout do this very reliably with two channel banks... One with fxs ports and the other with fxo ports and t1 media converters. The grand stream solution mentioned in an earlier post does 8 ports, you could get one 4 port model and one 8 port model of fxs and the same of fxo and accomplish your goal rather inexpensively as well.

[asterisk-users] iax2 received mini frame before first full voice frame
Hi, I'm running several asterisk servers in combination with dundi. The servers are in different data centers, but other than that they are running identical copies of the same os image, asterisk configuration, etc. One server acts as the trunk and is used to terminate pstn calls, and pass them on to another server via dundi, which then answers the call. I recently noticed that one of the call-answering servers was responding and playing back voice prompts fine, but was failing to record any user generated audio. After opening up the CLI on this server and running a test call through it, I noticed reams of the following warning message any time audio was being played or recorded: [May 21 20:31:52] WARNING[27346]: chan_iax2.c:8020 socket_process: Received mini frame before first full voice frame [May 21 20:31:52] WARNING[27346]: chan_iax2.c:8020 socket_process: Received mini frame before first full voice frame [May 21 20:31:52] WARNING[27346]: chan_iax2.c:8020 socket_process: Received mini frame before first full voice frame [May 21 20:31:52] WARNING[27346]: chan_iax2.c:8020 socket_process: Received mini frame before first full voice frame [May 21 20:31:52] WARNING[27346]: chan_iax2.c:8020 socket_process: Received mini frame before first full voice frame [May 21 20:31:52] WARNING[27346]: chan_iax2.c:8020 socket_process: Received mini frame before first full voice frame [May 21 20:31:52] WARNING[27346]: chan_iax2.c:8020 socket_process: Received mini frame before first full voice frame I found the following related post: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2006-January/136982.html However this doesn't explain why I should be unable to record anything.

[asterisk-users] DNS Changes never picked up with Asterisk 1.4.18 chan_sip?
Hello, We're attempting to use Asterisk for distributing calls via SIP in a large-scale speech recognition/VXML environment. We currently use DNS SRV with weights and priorities to instruct VoIP gateways (not Asterisk) to route calls to pools of servers. This works extremely well and provides for load balancing, fail-over, and by setting the TTL low (several minutes) we can easily take machines out of service for maintenance just by adjusting the appropriate DNS SRV records. For business reasons, we now need to achieve a similar setup using Asterisk instances hosted by a partner of ours. We've done a lot of reading on Asterisk and based on that our current understanding is: - chan_sip DOES now process DNS SRV weights and priorities (as of 1.4.X) but only uses the first record (but correctly sorted by priority weight) - chan_sip DOES NOT use the dnsmgr for caching/update of DNS records - Asterisk in general DOES NOT respect DNS TTL values (unclear if that was addressed in recent versions) In testing Asterisk 1.4.18, we are running into an even more basic issue -- changes to a host in DNS (with a single DNS SRV record) are never picked up by Asterisk. Our simple test scenario is: - Set SRV record in DNS for hostname X to point to server foo - Place calls and observe that Asterisk correctly routes call to server foo - Update SRV record in DNS for hostname X to point to server bar (with TTL of hostname X originally set to 5 minutes) - Subsequent calls still go to the original server foo, even after waiting hours or even days Asterisk never seems to pick up the changed DNS info. There are vague references on the web to being able to configure Asterisk with DNS related settings. (Unless specifically configured, Asterisk 1.2does not honor DNS Time To Live (TTL). from *http://tinyurl.com/2ossv6) *We've tried doing: [dnsmgr.conf] enable=yes; enable creation of managed DNS lookups refreshinterval=300 ; refresh managed DNS lookups every n seconds But this doesn't work, apparently since chan_sip doesn't use dnsmgr. We figure that many other people must need to have Asterisk process updated DNS info and that we must just be missing some configuration. Is that the case or is this a fundamental limitation of Asterisk in its current form? Thanks in advance for the help, -Joe P.S.

if that's all they do, then it doesn't sound good.

Re: [asterisk-users] ip phone suggestion for Asia?
You get what you pay for. Snoms are good phones. Grandstreams are also good. I hear Snoms are easier to get around NAT and the seem like higher quality construction. Grandstreams are great for cheap and easy set-ups. I remember one guy telling me he buy up a case and if anything goes wrong with a unit he has a couple spares to go in its place. Over all... if you're looking for setting up office phones, Snom, Polycom, and Aastra look/feel nice. If you're looking to set up small offices or call centers on the cheap, Grandstreams are OK. I personally like Grandstream for home use, but I use Polycom for work, and I hear good things about Snom.

[asterisk-users] Checking Dial Status
All,
I'm looking for a creative way to do this...
I've got a Polycom 650 as well as a standard cordless phone connected to
the Zap channel...
My Dialplan in extensions.conf looks like this:
exten = 9007,1,Dial(zap/1r4SIP/polycom-9007,20,r)
exten = 9007,2,Answer
exten = 9007,3,GoTo(s-${DIALSTATUS},1)
exten = s-NOANSWER,1,Voicemail(9007,u)
exten = s-BUSY,1,Voicemail(9007,b)
What I would like to have happen is that if I have the Do Not Disturb
option enabled on my Polycom 650, I would like the user to get the busy
voicemail greeting...
It works flawlessly if I do NOT dial the zap/1 channel... It also works
flawlessly if I enable Do Not Disturb on BOTH the SIP and Zap channels
being dialed.
Basically what I'd like to do is if the SIP channel is Busy, jump
immediately to busy voice mail greeting... But if the SIP channel is not
Busy, Dial both the SIP and ZAP channels...
Is there any way to do this correctly and probe my SIP phone before I dial
any channels?
Thanks

[asterisk-users] Asterisk 1.4.15 sip.conf register
Hello, I recently upgraded from Asterisk 1.4.0 to 1.4.15... I am registering to a sip provider in my sip.conf as below [general] register=user:password:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/extension Later down in my sip.conf I have the definition for that service provider as follows [serviceprovider] type=peer host=x.x.x.x port= outboundproxy=t.t.t.t . . . With asterisk 1.4 it would know to look in the peer definition for the IP address information... Now it appears that asterisk 1.4.15 is trying to do a DNS looking on serviceprovider... Of course that's coming back as an unknown host, and it no longer registers. Any steers as to how I can get asterisk 1.4.15 to look at the peer definition for the address info would be appreciated.

[asterisk-users] Sip to ATA?
Currently running two POTS lines into an asterisk system. Analog and SIP on premises. Being in the sticks, the POTS service is abysmal for quality, especially in the rain. Recently, cable has become available with VOIP phone. The cost savings are attractive as it can replace several independent services for TV and internet (currently satellite). But, I cannot get much out of them, regarding how the phone service works. All I can get is I plug my existing phones and answering machines into the back of the cable modem and am good to go. I am hesitant to believe that I can simply plug my TDM400P (2fxo/2fxs) into these (ATA ?) jacks and call it good. Any insight? Am I better off ignoring their phone offering and setting myself up with an IAX or SIP provider? (and surplus-ing the card). I would end up needing more than their single line offering with a second line at $30/month (USD).

In my case, I ask it to answer immediately and do a distinctive ring (r3) to alert that is its a FAX call so no one picks up the line. however, it seems the FAX tone is not being detected (I know it is being sent), as the normal ring tone is heard.
