RE: [Asterisk-Users] Polycom IP500 Forward problem codec issue

2005-05-02 Thread Charlie Watts
I'm using ulaw, but seeing this problem as well.

Are you using CVS? I would swear it didn't do this to me in earlier tests, but 
it is doing it now. I will try to track down the specific change tonight ...

My solution for now is to Answer() the call before dialing out. I changed all 
of my outbound dialing rules from:

[trunklocal]
exten = _9NXX,1,Dial(${TRUNK}/${EXTEN:${TRUNKMSD}})

To:

[trunklocal]
exten = _9NXX,1,Answer
exten = _9NXX,n,Dial(${TRUNK}/${EXTEN:${TRUNKMSD}})

This seems to fix it, and I haven't identified any side effects.
I need to do this anyway to workaround an early-media problem I have.

Does it work for you after this change?

Polycom IP500 Forward problem codec issue

All,
Im running the Polycom IP500 phones at several sites.   My * server is 
at a collocation site and I have complete control of the T1s running to the 
remote sites with the IP500 phones.  Connectivity to the PSTN is 
through a Cisco 2600 with a PRI card.   During initial testing I ran 
G711/ulaw but have added G729 licenses to the system.

Problem:  When the forwarding function on the Polycom phones is enabled the 
forward/transfer does work but the caller does not hear any ringing. 
  During the time that the caller should hear ringing the * console produces 
pages of errors.

I have tested this with the phones behind a PIX firewall with NAT, behind a PIX 
firewall without NAT, and without a firewall at all.  Nat is not the problem.

In the SIP.conf canreinvite=no so all traffic should be passing through the * 
server.

The problem seems to be in the translation of the G729 packets from the 
phone to the G711 packets to the router.   Only during the forwarding 
process is this a problem.

Here is a snip from the console when it worked.

Joe and Charlie,
YES, that fixed the problem.   I did move the whole network to G729 but 
it was never a codec problem.

I'm not running CVS, it's 1.0.3 at the moment.
Thanks
