Re: [asterisk-users] [NEWBIE] Right dect to buy to use with asterisk
Hi, I made good experienes with Siemens Gigaset C610 IP. This model is about 90 Euro. Configuration via web interface.

Re: [asterisk-users] [NEWBIE] Right dect to buy to use with asterisk
Hello Mario, nice to meet you on this mailing list! Gigaset phones are a very high quality/price ratio, so I'll suggest you to go with the dect ip models. Then you'll need to configure asterisk to act as IVR, configure a queue and a failover to ring all hunt list. Drop me a phone call and I'll be happy to help you Leandro 2013/12/11 Mario Giammarco mgiamma...@gmail.com Hello, I need to setup this configuration: - asterisk as IVR; - dect phones.

Re: [asterisk-users] Newbie´s question about Asterisk...
Asterisk is open source and you can install in a normal PC itself and you can avail all the features that proprietary system has. If you want to integrate with any VoIP service then a PC with Asterisk is enough or else if you want to integrate with PSTN lines then you need FXO card to be installed, its a PCI card. Vendors like Sangoma, Digium (from Asterisk) were selling these cards. And for internal for your agents if you need analog hard phones then you need to have FXS card you can avail these FXO and FXS cards in combination. These cards will fit in your PCI slot of machine. Configuring these cards are also very easy. If it is VoIP then you dont need these cards simply install Asterisk in a PC and you are done.

Yes, use a FXO device, like the AudioCodes MP-114. It is an external gateway that will allow you to interface your PSTN lines to Asterisk via IP.

Re: [asterisk-users] Newbie´s question about Asterisk...
First of all, thank you for your help. I was seing Cisco and Linsys web sites and I just came across this 2 devices: Linksys SPA8000 8 phone ports, 1 port ethernet. Cisco SPA8800 4 phone ports, 4 lines, 1 port ethernet. I think they could work for us, because I need maximum 10 normal phones and 4 PSTN lines. Besides with these devices I could use my normal phones, so I would not need additional wiring. So far, this is the list to evaluate the costs of this Linux PBX solution: 1 HP Proliant Micro Server 1 Linksys SPA8000 1 Cisco SPA8800 1 UPS 1 switch 16 ports( we use a 8 port switch) 1 shelf rack 3 patch cords. I just have 3 doubts: 1. What do you think about Linksys SPA8000 and Linksys SPA8800, are they good solutions in my case? 2. What do you think about this list, am I missing something? 3. I am thinking to buy a switch with VLANS to have one VLAN for my PBX, what do you think about this, is it necessary? Thank you for your kind help.

He asked my to investigate what this thing called Asterisk is and if we could save some money using it instead of the panasonic solution. So, here I am. I have some experience as linux sysadmin(we have 1 oracle linux server and 1 linux print server) nevertheless I don´t have any idea where and how to start this evaluation? Please Would you give us a clue where to see If Asterisk could work for us? Thanks for your kind help. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

The ADSL modem provided by my ISP offers free calls to landlines/cellphones when using a handset connected to an RJ11 port on the modem. A three-person call can be set up by using the standard PBX sequence: 1. Using the handset, call party #1 2. Hit R key on handset, which puts party #1 on hold and gives a dialtone 3. Call party #2 4. Once both parties are off-hook, hit R+ 3 on handset to bridge both calls and have a conference call Is MeetMe the right way to do this in Asterisk, or should I look at some other way? Ideally, I'd rather go through a VOSP to avoid the extra digital/analog conversion added by going through the FXO module, but free calls are only available when using that port :-/ Thank you. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Probably none of the ones you list, though I believe wav files are uncompressed. Use SOX http://sox.sourceforge.net/ under Linux, Windows or OSX and RIP/Convert the files to match the codec you are using for calls. If you are accepting calls that use the GSM codec then have a set of MOH files encoded as .gsm, if you are accepting calls that use the g.723 codec then encode your MOH files as g.723, if using speex, use speex, etc... use files already encoded in the formats in which you originate and terminate calls.

If your channels use gsm|ulaw|g729|whatever, encode your sound files (prompts, music on hold, everything) in that format. If you have your sound files encoded with the same codec as the codec your channels are using, Asterisk does not need to transcode so the cost is minimized.

Re: [asterisk-users] Newbie, Question on making a PSTN call..
I understand the desire to try, but you are trying too hard. Getting a soft modem to work with Asterisk is. like trying to push a string up a 10 foot pipe. At the least, buy an inexpensive FXO device from someone like Grandstream and use it via Ethernet to work with Asterisk. If you have greater ambitions, buy any appropriate piece of hardware and start with that. Otherwise, You are going to have a lot of string in that pipe, before you see any come out the top. You won't get help on this because no one really knows how to do it or if it will work at all. I am trying to help, by getting you to try a better way. Good luck.

Thank you for the prompt input!

Should there be additional files i post that will offer more information? And to Alex: Yes you are correct, the POTS line is in port 1, the POTS phone is on port 3. I'm not sure where it's getting the idea that i want to dial on port 3. That part of asterisk (how it routes from one port to another on the digium card) is something i still do not understand well.

Re: [asterisk-users] Newbie query: how to write priority n+101
Geoff Lane wrote: Hi All, Asterisk 1.4.12 on CentOS 5 Sorry for a question that I'm guessing is obvious to most of you. I'm trying to revamp my dialplan. When I first created it, I had something like: exten = s,1,Set(CALLERID(name)=${DB(cidname/${CALLERID(num)})}) exten = s,2,Dial(${rgMain},${RINGTIME},t) exten = s,3,VoiceMail(m...@default) exten = s,103,VoiceMail(m...@default) Now I want to play around to add things like the privacy manager and blacklist handling, which all goes before priority 2 in the above. The Dial() application jumps to the priority 101 more than its own priority (i.e. n+101) if it times out. But how can I specify this if I'm numbering priorities as 1,n,n,n,n? (BTW, the reason for priority 3 in the above extension is that in an earlier version of Asterisk, Dial() sometimes jumped to the next priority rather than one 101 more). TIA, Actually, jumping to priority n + 101 is a thing of the past, and this will only occur now if you pass the 'j' option to Dial. Dial will just go to the next priority on a timeout now, and the DIALSTATUS channel variable will be set to NOANSWER I suspect that if you enable verbose console logging, you'll actually see that priority 3 is what is being executed and not priority 103. Check out the UPGRADE.txt file in Asterisk 1.4. In the Applications section, you'll see: * In previous Asterisk releases, many applications would jump to priority n+101 to indicate some kind of status or error condition. This functionality was marked deprecated in Asterisk 1.2. An option to disable it was provided with the default value set to 'on'. The default value for the global priority jumping option is now 'off'.

Re: [asterisk-users] Newbie in Cisco Phone
I run chan_sccp at home. It works well, supports the park function, but does not make use of the conference button. I haven't used the chan_skinny, so I don't know how it compares. With chan_sccp, if you make a change to the configuration, you need to reload the module, thus taking down all phones running sccp. That's fine if there are only a couple of phones, but would be a problem if it is a big office.

Re: [asterisk-users] Newbie Polycom: Cannot conference with 10 digit 3rd party
Lee, John (Sydney) wrote: Calling all Polycom gurus: I am using Polycom IP601 phones with Asterisk 1.4.21.2 In all Polycom phones, I set the following in sip.cfg. dialplan dialplan.impossibleMatchHandling=2 /dialplan (I leave the digitmap unchanged because I thought setting impossibleMatchHandling will ignore the bitmap) ...so that I could dial any number by entering a variable-size telephone number and then hit the send or dial key. This works quite well except when I am doing conferencing. It goes like this: I dialled the 1st party and was answered. Then I press conf key and then enter the 3rd party. I can keep entering until it reaches the 10th digit and then the 10-digit number is automatically dialled. Any thoughts? I don't think the 2 works quite that way. From what I read in the admin guide the impossibleMatchHandling lets you tell the phone how it should handle numbers that are dialed that do NOT match the dial plan. Your numbers that are longer than 10 digits probably match one of the entries in the phone's dialplan so as soon as it matches it sends the number to asterisk. You will either need to wipe out the phone dialplan and replace it with a generic X.T or add a digit map for the number you are dialing that is greater than 10 digits long. -Dave ___ -- 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] Newbie Polycom: ACD AgentLogin display on phone
I played with the Polycom login/logout function about a year ago, and it looked brilliant. I could never get it to work, but at the time I had both Polycom and Digium agree that it would be worth getting running. I ran out of time on that project, and have never re-visited it. But it would be a great feature to get working! PaulH Lee, John (Sydney) wrote: I have been coding my own IVR for ACD (aka queue) using Polycom phones using AEL2. In particular, I have coded my own AgentCallbackLogin because a) cmd AgentCallbackLogin() is buggy and will not be supported by dev anymore b) I can put in features like hotdesking and additional validation like prohibiting repeated logins and current phone already logged on by other agent and so forth. Having said that, that still leaves one feature not available which is a visible display on the Polycom phone that an agent has already logged on to the phone. I searched the mailing list up and low and there were some sketchy notes about bweschke had developed a patch which could understand the acd-login-logout of Polycom phones. However, I hope someone can answer the following questions for me. a) Is bweschke's patch available in the current version or do we have to download and install it separately? b) Does bweschke's patch only interface with the AgentLogin() command? In other words, after we enabled the acd-login-logout parameters in the Polycom config files and we pressed the key on the phone, will the phone then basically initiate an AgentLogin() command to the Asterisk server? And does the light beside the key shows red to signify that an agent has logged on successfully. c) I have coded my own Agent Login and Logout extension and it would be great if the softkey could call my own agent login and logout extension (this bit is easy) and then showing the red light if it is a successful login (hard?).

Re: [asterisk-users] Newbie Queue: Code your own queuefor AgentCallBackLogin
There's actually a document included with the source code which will take you through setting up an agent callback system. You can find it in 'doc/queues-with-callback-members.txt'. The 'AgentCallBackLogin' application has some issues, and since you can do the same thing with your dialplan, you're better off doing so. I have basically re-written most of my major dial plan extensions using AEL2 and I think they work pretty well although writing a proper agent login and logout and subsequent incoming call handling is not easy for layman in programming. I am not sure about the take up rate of AEL2 but the 2007 comments on this link does not seem too promising. http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page_id=2929tk=5d05138dc792171e f5a0comments_page=1 From a programmer's perspective, AEL2 looks much more like a language than AEL and is easier to code and read.

I think we have fixed the problem and the card is no longer reporting any problems. We are able to dial out successfully and we will continue to test. Here are my findings of the problem with working with PRI in China. 1) MFC/R2 is the biggest distraction so far when I tested the line. When the line did not work, I was preoccupied with thinking whether the line is Euro-ISDN or MFC/R2. As I found out, the line which I ordered from NETCOM is definitely Euro-ISDN. As a matter of fact, the search on this mailing list about installs in China has returned almost 100% ISDN. So, the zaptel.conf should be pretty straightforward with no tweaking at all. 2) Communication with the telco is the other problem. When we placed the order, we just said we wanted an E1. They delivered the E1 no problem but we forgot to specify that the interface must be RJ48 and NOT RJ45. As you might know, RJ45 and RJ48 mean 2 totally different interfaces. RJ48 is for ISDN and voice connection and RJ45 is for data. So, after my local contact talked to the engineers, they came and replace the converter and plug the RJ48 into the Digium card and everything worked fine. Hope this helps with any future installs in China! ___ -- 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

Are you trying to take the E1 that they've *converted into 100BT* for you and plug it into an E1 port? Since this thread is still going I thought I'd chime in again. With our working CNC setup in Kunming, they provide some kind of router which breaks a single incoming fibre in to both 100BT and an E1 line that plugs in to the Sangoma card. zaptel_hardware output is: pci::04:06.0 wanpipe- 1923:0300 Sangoma Technologies Corp.

So, make sure in your dialplan you do this, or outgoing testing may inexplicably fail. A line like: exten = s,n,Set(CALLERID(number)=02222) Also, if you have not set up an incoming context calling in over the analog network will generate an error tone from the network, rather than anything more obvious. In this case somewhere in asterisk's logfiles you can see unknown extension or an error of that sort that appears each time an incoming attempt is made, but there are no other clues. So make sure your incoming contexts are set up! Best of luck.

Then put it in card and if card is OK you should see green led.You should also see dozens of ALARMS notices or warnings on asterisk CLI. Also check pinout http://www.goonda.org/archive/docs/pinout.html Pinout should be 1,2,4,5 (on card side). Call telco. Make them check line with tester (from their point to isdn) to ensure line is ok.

NETCOM in Shanghai just told my local contact it is an E1 and that's it. I have no idea whether it is MFC/R2 or EuroISDN and so there is a lot of trial and error, not to mention about communicating with the telco. Is there anyway I could find out from zaptel what the line signal is? International installs are always fun. I have had some luck getting a local employee to relay my questions about provisioning, but all to often the response is 'We use the standard settings...'. At that point I resort to trial and error. I have setup a circuit in Shanghai, it is an E1, CRC4/HDB3 with the telco switch being/or compatible with ATT 5ESS. You should be able to get Netcom to tell you if the circuit is ISDN or not. Asking if it is a PRI will just confuse them, but they do understand the question 'ISDN or not ISDN' The only oddity with EuroISDN is that it often provided without CRC4. That doesn't make a lot of sense, but there it is. MFC/R2 seems to be universally provided without CRC4 in China. That's great info, Steve. Just to comment - this is a great thread. I am expecting that the answer will either be quite interesting or quite odd.

I don't seem to see too much literature on the Internet about using AEL2 or are people still waiting until we are forced to use AEL2? ___ -- 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 ___ -- 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
Re: [asterisk-users] Newbie in China: Red alaram in Zaptel for E1
Lee, John (Sydney) wrote: i've installed several Asterisk systems in Shanghai Beijing. Thanks Edwin. The remote site is in Shanghai and NETCOM is the telco. Do you know if their E1 line is MFC/R2 or EuroISDN? i'm not sure if they provide MFC/R2. but we always ordered PRI from them. as far as switch type. seems like nobody in CNC can give us a definite answer, but we have success using EuroISDN swicth type. red alarm usually means there's no clocking signal. check all your cables (crossover vs straight through) As far as the cable goes, this is a bit complicated. The way it works is the telco delivers a fibre optic cable to the floor and the fibre terminates on a fibre optic multiplexer. Then the multiplexer is connected to a Fast Ethernet to E1 converter which has a RJ45 port. We then connect this RJ45 port to the TE412P port. Anyway what you said is still a good point - I will try replacing the straight through cable with a crossover and give it a go. if the cable's good. call phone company and complain. in my experience 9 out of 10 time we have to call phone company and complain. How should we complain? Are there any technical details we need to show them? It is a different country though. if after you tried both straight through crossover cables and it still give you RED alarm. just tell them you can't get any clocking signal. they'll probably send someone on site and test the line. p.s. note that T1/E1 crossover cable pin out is not the same as ethernet crossover cable. -- Edwin Lam [EMAIL PROTECTED] Systems Engineer, Office General, Inc.

Re: [asterisk-users] Newbie Queue: Code your own queue for AgentCallBackLogin

Is this true? I don't seem to see too much literature on the Internet about using AEL2 or are people still waiting until we are forced to use AEL2? I have used addqueuemember and that works quite well with current versions of Asterisk and the old dialplan (ie: not ael2) I have the example code somewhere if you would like a copy.

Re: [asterisk-users] Newbie in China: Red alaram in Zaptel for E1
I think it can't hurt to try a different release. Let me know how it goes. Thanks Igor. I just upgraded zaptel to 1.4.11. However, I am still seeing red in the alarm in zttool and the LED on port 1 also shows red. --- cat /proc/zaptel/1 is also showing Span 1: TE4/0/1 T4XXP (PCI) Card 0 Span 1 (MASTER) HDB3/CCS/CRC4 RED 1 TE4/0/1/1 Clear RED 2 TE4/0/1/2 Clear RED Zaptel started up fine and dmesg below does not show the error message.
