[asterisk-users] switchtype QSIG and Asterisk implementation
Hi, Is Asterisk fully QSIG-compliant? I currently have an Alcatel 4400 connected to Asterisk 1.2 and 1.4. Zaptel versions are 1.2.26 and 1.4.11. I am using switchtype=euroisdn and all works fine. However, it seems that Alcatel's latest firmware has dropped support for euroisdn which is really despicable. So now I need to see if I can migrate to QSIG which is supported by Alcatel. However, I've searched for QSIG + Asterisk on the web and came up with some posts saying that Asterisk may not fully implement QSIG (eg.: http://threebit.net/mail-archive/asterisk-users/msg14000.html). Are the latest Asterisk versions (both 1.2 and 1.4, not to mention 1.6) QSIG-compliant or are there known issues? Is anyone here happily running a LegacyPBX---QSIG_PRI---ASTERISK system? I've read this page and it seems that the author did not succeed in setting up QSIG between Alcatel 4400 and Asterisk: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Alcatel+4400+via+PRI Thanks, Vieri ___ -- 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] switchtype QSIG and Asterisk implementation
2009/2/25 Vieri rentor...@yahoo.com However, it seems that Alcatel's latest firmware has dropped support for euroisdn 1. That is very surprising as I would classify QSIG to a private PBX-to-private PBX protocol, not a private PBX-to-public ISDN. If this classification is true, it would be a commercial suicide for Alcatel to narrow its targeted customers to those living in countries where Alcatel PBX are mostly sold by Telcos (in think it's the case in Italy but not in France, for instance) as those are the only ones that can change protocol used to interconnect with public ISDN. So if, euroisdn support has been dropped in the PBX you're trying to inconnect with, that may come from the company that installed this PBX and deliberately choosed to drop euroisdn feature, for a reason. 2. Alcatel 4400 is a very old product. I'm also surprised it still gets software updates though it was possible to upgrade it to an OmniPCX which is the current Alcatel PBX. 3. Anyway, how is your current setup ? Public ISDN --BRI or PRI --- Asterisk ---BRI or PRI --- Alcatel 4400 4. From my poor understanding of libpri, Asterisk complies with parts of QSIG standards. I tried hard to find a doc describing Asterisk QSIG features but couldn't find anything. ___ -- 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

Finally I am using my OXE via Q.SIG but does not know call transfer and other functions are implemented or not. I have found same documents as you. Unfortunately no useful help even here nor Alcatel forums. For making clear I am not bitching and many many thanks and respect for every help I have received from here just I did not received any useful answer on this topic yet.
