Re: [asterisk-users] evaluate SIP response codes in dialplan
I still think we need a SIP_CAUSE channel variable. :-) Then we need to start working on aggregation rules, like what if one IAX channel answers and one SIP channel is busy? For SIP-only calls, we need to add a lot of code from proxy rules for call forking and response aggregation. It's not an easy task. /O ___ -- 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

But then again Asterisk is not a SIP softswitch but a PBX. :-) I've never seen people who are asking for SIP_CAUSE expect it to work under all circumstances. All the use cases are pretty simple: Dial(SIP/buddy); // single argument When dialling to more than 1 SIP peer Dial(SIP/busySIP/answers_the_call); the best thing to do would be to store the last cause code that we receive i.e. the one of the peer who answered. In a multi-protocol situation Dial(SIP/busyIAX/answers_the_call); I don't expect SIP_CAUSE to be anything meaningful. It could be set to 000 or somesuch.

Hello, I am missing any description of zaptel/DAHDI alarms. The TE200 series user manual contains only a description of LEDs states.

Re: [asterisk-users] Cisco 7941G-GE with Asterisk and CTPSEP odyssee
I have just got a Cisco 7941G and am experiencing the exact same problem (phone is requesting .tlv file from TFTP server and never asks for .cnf.xml file). The phone originally had SCCP on it, but I downloaded and flashed with the latest Cisco SIP image (8.4(3) released 2009-01-13). In reading your message below, it looks like you were going to try an incremental upgrade–did you have any success with this? cheers, Shamus Update and revision: I now downloaded the oldest gettable SIP firmware for 7941/61, i.e. 8.0.2. I always get the same behaviour. But I realized it never got to the SIP image completely loaded status. I bought this phone and it had - no wonder - an SCCP image installed. When plugging that into an ethernet port the first thing it does is requesting an IP address and afterwards the CTLSEPmac.tlv file. In the status section I see an SCCP firmware entry. When I do a factory reset (that should be the right way to get the SIP firmware on such a phone, right?) it now loads the term41.default.loads and some other files and then reboots and requests the CTLSEPmac.tlv file. The firmware entry in the status section now says term41.default.loads. Getting over this CTLSEP step should bring the phone to load the SIP41XXX.loads file, I assume. But as I am not getting over this step it stays in the term41.default.loads step, unfortunately. Does that ring a bell to anyone? Does anyone of you have had the same situation? In which state did you get the 7961G? SCCP? And how did you manage to load SIP firmware onto it? Christophorus I do have to answer to your suggestion of renaming the CTLSEPmac.tlv to SEPmac. The phone is still requesting CTLSEPmac.tlv and as it cannot find that it goes into a loop. I also let the phone do that the whole weekend so there should be no iterative process in requesting the files as I read in some howtos. Any further ideas? I also read that it is possible to connect and configure the phone by ssh. So after flashing the phone with a SIP image there should be some default username/password combination which I did not manage to find out yet. Does anyone know? I now am going to revert to an older release to try that. I will report any success as well as misses. Thanks again, Christophorus This should result in the same problem. The CTLSEPmac file is the first that is requested on the TFTP server. But I am going to try that.

Re: [asterisk-users] How to overwrite CDR(dst) value in h priority?
The reason why I introduced h priority here is that I needed to get the variable CDR(duration) for DeadAGI script which I am also running in h priority. Without h priority, I was getting correct CDR(dst) value but not correct CDR(duration) value even if I tried to run DeadAGI after Hangup(). Current situation is that I have to sacrifise either on CDR(duration) or on CDR(dst) for the same call. But I am sure there must be a way to get this information because afterall asterisk has this information and it writes it in the CDR after call completion. And I also need these two variables after a call is hungup so I can do something with them in my AGI acript.

Re: [asterisk-users] Description of Zaptel/DAHDI E1 alarms
On Mon, 2009-01-19 at 11:10 +0100, Lukas Rypl wrote: I am missing any description of zaptel/DAHDI alarms. The TE200 series user manual contains only a description of LEDs states. These alarms states are visible in zttool/dahditool or in astersick CLI (zap show status) and I wonder what is the real meaning of these alarms for E1 channel. I can't speak for all the possible states in the T1/E1 card driver, but I can state that typically in T1s and E1s you have three different general alarm states: RED alarms, YELLOW alarms, and BLUE alarms. (This is a brief synopsis of the information we cover in the Asterisk Advanced training class.) Red alarm --- Your T1/E1 port will go into red alarm when it maintain synchronization with the remote switch. A red alarm typically indicates either a physical wiring problem, loss of connectivity, or a framing and/or line-coding mismatch with the remote switch. When your T1/E1 port loses sync, it will transmit a yellow alarm to the remote switch to indicate that it's having a problem receiving signal from the remore switch. (The easy way to remember this is that the R in red stands for right here and receive... indicating that we're having a problem right here receiving the signal from the remote switch.) Yellow alarm or RAI (Remote Alarm Indication) --- Your T1/E1 port will go into yellow alarm when it receives a signal from the remote switch that the port on that remote switch is in red alarm. This essentially means that the remote switch is not able to maintain sync with you, or is not receiving your transmission. (The easy way to remember this is that the Y in yellow stands for yonder... indicating that the remote switch (over yonder) isn't able to see what you're sending.) Blue alarm or AIS (Alarm Indication Signal) --- Your T1/E1 port will go into blue alarm when it receives all unframed 1s on all timeslots from the remote switch. This is a special signal to indicate that the remote switch is having problems with it's upstream connection. As far as I know, dahdi_tool/zttool and Asterisk don't correctly indicate a blue alarm (at least I've never seen them indicate one). The easy way to remember this is that streams are blue, so a blue alarm indicates a problem upstream from the switch you're connected to.

[asterisk-users] Interesting observation
I have an interesting observation which I thought I'd pass along to save other people from spending time trying to 'fix' it. One of my clients uses Charter's so called business phone service. They provide 'analog' phone lines over IP. In general, they've worked OK. End users were saying that the phone are cutting out at times. What I've observed is they actually do cut out (meaning all inbound audio is momentarily lost) if a loud noise is created on the local end. This client has a machine shop so you can imagine that at times it does get quite loud. I spent a few hours trying to different setting in the Polycom phones, but finally thought I'd try plugging an analog headset into the Charter CPE device directly. The same behavior was experienced. It appears they have a 'feature' which cuts out the incoming audio if a loud noise (simulated by blowing into the receiver) is experienced outgoing. Pretty much going to a true analog service is the only solution that I can think of. Would be interested if anyone has other thoughts.

Re: [asterisk-users] Interesting observation
My understanding is that Charter 'telephone' doesn't use IP at all but rather uses some additional frequency spectrum on their cable network. Hence, the reason why faxing with their service is reliable unlike other providers who are *actually* using VoIP. It sounds like they're suffering from clipping of some sort or almost a half-duplex audio situation. Weird. I've seen some el-cheapo cordless phones behave this way but never a 'business' solution.

[asterisk-users] [somewhat OT] seeking ideas/input for my thesis
Hello VoIP guys Sorry for being somewhat off-topic. At the moment I am studying informatics in the seventh semester and I need to start thinking about my thesis. As I am very interested in VoIP technologies I thought about picking this as my main topic. So far I have only little experience in this area. I have been fiddling around with siproxd and pfSense and have red the one or the other packet dump containing SIP and RTP traffic, had a look into codecs, STUN, etc... but very cursorily, and that's the reason why I am quite unsure on which track to go. I think I am quite familiar with many network protocols and devices... so here comes the question of the questions: What would be a great project for my thesis to work on in the VoIP field? What are topics that still need special development? The time frame should be around 300 hours but don't take this value too seriously...

Thanks! I've just ordered a Linksys SPA8000 to try it out and compare it with my Grandstream GXW4008 devices. They are similar feature-wise. Linksys/Cisco should theoretically be a lot more stable/reliable... The only thing I'm missing in the SPA8000 but is available in the GXW4008 devices are the dual ethernet ports (LAN/WAN). However, I saw a video (youtube I think) where I saw a second NIC on the SPA8000 (called aux). Is it only for admin use or can it be used just like the other nic, to register to a PBX? I'd like to give the SPA8000 NICs IP addresses on 2 different subnets, both connected to the same PBX server (but with two NICs) via 2 different switches (registration via DNS SRV). That's how I setup the GXW4008 and they work great if any one of the switches fails. I'm wondering if I can do that with the SPA8000 and what the second NIC on that device is for.

Re: [asterisk-users] Interesting observation
I investigated Charter for our business phone systems and asked many of these questions of the sales person. I was told they have a dedicated part of the bandwidth available that is used just for phone traffic. I could break out my college networking book and get you the frequency break down as far as what is used for IP and what is used for TV and why the upload and down load speeds are asymmetrical if I was motivated but I am not so you will have to take this for what it is worth. As cable is not a point to point system (cable is shared bandwidth for all users on that cable) that means all phone users will be using the same piece of spectrum on that cable. This means that too many phone calls on that line at the same time could affect a Charter phone call. I do not know if they use analog or digital signals for the phones but if we use the cell phone system as an example they took down all analog towers because they could service more phones on the same bandwidth with digital. I would assume that would hold true for the spectrum on a cable as well. I would also find it hard to believe that they would not use off the shelf technology. That being said my brothers in-laws are using it and are having no problems what so ever.

[asterisk-users] Problems With Playback of Audio On SIP Only System
I have been installing Asterisk as a SIP only system (no Digium Hardware) for demonstration purposes. SIP users can connect to menus and voicemail fine but the audio quality is terrible. The stock voicemail problems are bad but basically understandable - voice menus recorded through the asterisk-gui-2.0 are difficult to even understand. The phone I am testing with is a Polycom SountPoint IP 430 SIP. I have configured the phone for ulaw to be it primary codec and set disallow all and allow ulaw in the users.conf. When that did not work I guessed that something was wrong with dahdi_dummy but dahdi_test is showing results around 99.987%. Here are the details of what software I have been using: asterisk-1.4 (r168975) dahdi-linux-complete 2.1.0 (r 5662) asterisk-gui-2.0 (r4446) The linux kernel is 2.6.24.6 built with 1000 Hz timer.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk Appliance
From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Bob Pierce [pier...@westmancom.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 13, 2009 5:36 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: [asterisk-users] Asterisk Appliance I'm looking for some info on the Asterisk Appliance. I understand it has a gui, but can I still do all the dialplan config that I'm used of doing by hand outside of the gui? If I really wanted to, could I even ignore that the device has a gui and do all my config in the files? I guess I'm just wondering if it will be as flexible as a 'vanilla' asterisk install from source on a linux system. Also, from those who are using these devices, what has your experience been? Are they stable? Do they seem to have enough horsepower and storage space for an SMB with up to 50 phones? Some older specs stated they would be appropriate for businesses with 2-50 users, while the current spec on the Digium site states they are appropriate for 2-20 users. Sorry for the delay in responding -- I'm just now having time to catch up on a month of the list, but it doesn't appear anyone else has responded. We have an Asterisk Appliance in a remote office (and I have one at home) and it's a mistake we would not make again. Concept wise it's a nice idea, but using Asterisk built from source is so much easier, more flexible, and less stressful. I guess our biggest issue with the appliance isn't hardware but administrative: While I found no reference to it before we purchased the Appliances (maybe I didn't look hard enough, maybe it's not documented anywere that's readily findable) Digium doesn't support any confiuguration not generated using the GUI wizard... Digium doesn't support FTPing files onto or off of the appliance, Digium doesn't support... Stability wise I don't have any complaints, it's never crashed on us except when I tried FTPing config files off so I could edit them. We only have two full-time users at the remote office, and I have only me at home (6 total extentions at the office for visiting staff, 7 extensions at home). There is a wierd FXO caller ID issue that we're fighting on one of the POTS lines, but Digium essentially refused to support it because we aren't running anything close to what the GUI could build for us automagically (unified dialplan across three sites, either site can call out on the other site's POTS lines, call queuing that crosses sites, feature codes to force calls to extensions direct-to-voicemail (no ring ever) and ring-for-eternity (no voicemail ever, etc.) [in fairness it looks like its a CO issue because the problem follows the line, the other POTS lines don't exhibit the issue, though all lines work with a standard caller ID box]. I'm weary of making changes to that box because while you can edit config files through the GUI, if you aren't very careful it seems like parts of a context will rearange itself (e.g. part of extension s will end up in the middle of something completely different). We tried to upgrade the firmware once and it screwed things up to the point where for a day the site had no telephone service (oh, suprise! If you have any custom stuff in extension.conf and upgrade the firmware it will spin off into an infinite loop orbit until you factory default the thing... and once we got control of the infinite loop issue we couldn't get the config that had been working just beautifully to work at all, so we punted and rolled back to the previous FW version) Basically, my experience with the appliance it it's a beautiful little box and if they'd just ditch the GUI and give a moderately user friendly commandline text editor I'd be on it in a second, but with the appliance in it's current state it took me less time to * Unbox a Dell PowerEdge 1950 * Install AEX804E card * Rack a Dell PowerEdge 1950 * Install server version of Linux from Distro CD * Download Aserisk and Zaptel sources, compile, configure, and install * Build Dialplan by hand from scratch (and I think, not including labor costs this was also close to the same cost, if not cheaper than the appliance) Then the amount of time I've spent trying to get the Appliance to do what we want -- and what we want for the thing really isn't that complicated (really just Take POTS lines in, handle local switching for a handful of extensions so that that traffic doesn't wind up on our WAN/VPN connecions, and act as a SSU-- we aren't even doing queues on it!). Plus making changes to the Dell version of things is also quicker and less nerve wracking.. As you can probably tell I don't care much for the Appliance based on our understanding of what it was. On the other hand, though, if all you have is one site and just need a basic SOHO PBX it's a decent contender... the support more than anything is what's left a bad taste in my mouth.

I'm leaning towards system() because the script/executable does not interact with Asterisk and may have value to you as a stand-alone command line utility. You can write either in whatever language you are comfortable with. My sharpest tool is C but if execution speed is not important any scripting language (like shell) will do. I'm a big fan of the getopt facility as it does all the nasty command line parsing for you so your utilities have a consistent, self-documenting look and feel. I even use it when I write AGIs.

At the moment I am studying informatics in the seventh semester and I need to start thinking about my thesis. As I am very interested in VoIP technologies I thought about picking this as my main topic. So far I have only little experience in this area. I have been fiddling around with siproxd and pfSense and have red the one or the other packet dump containing SIP and RTP traffic, had a look into codecs, STUN, etc... but very cursorily, and that's the reason why I am quite unsure on which track to go. I think I am quite familiar with many network protocols and devices... so here comes the question of the questions: What would be a great project for my thesis to work on in the VoIP field? What are topics that still need special development? The time frame should be around 300 hours but don't take this value too seriously... An idea: contact synchronisation via SIP Are there any (working or concept) extensions on using SIP to synchronize contacts in the way icq does it? (server-side contacts) Any ideas are welcome! /sp4rc I suppose there are a lot of questions here, actually, since this is a fairly broad topic area you've mentioned. - are you looking to write code to solve a problem? - are you looking for a particularly vexing problem about which to write an analysis paper but write no code? - in what areas have you done work already? Signal analysis? Packet protocols? Hotel management? (the last one is facetious but actually is not entirely non-relevant - Asterisk is lacking a good open-source SMDR interface.) So here are some projects you might look into: - Work with Kristian Kielhofner and make a better signal analysis engine for his Recqual system - SMDR for Asterisk (http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2004-June/042854.html ) - steganographic audio multiplexing (http://stegano.net/) - audio encryption/decryption codecs (analog PSTN compatible) - RTP multiplexing for bandwidth savings (see http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-dev/2008-December/thread.html#35814) - open-source ZRTP implementation There's a start. Asterisk is a good platform for testing lots of new ideas. Let us know what you might be interested in, and I'm sure there will be good comments from the crowd.

Again, I've not used it, so not 100% sure that's how it works, but, that's what it looks like to me... Hope it helps... d ___ -- 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] Need help registering Cisco 7960 Phones on Asterisk
From my experience it won't register to the second box, only to the first one. Why? god knows... __Yehavi: 2009/1/20 D Tucny d...@tucny.com 2009/1/20 Zeeshan Zakaria zisha...@gmail.com Hi everyone, I googled this followed the instructions, but it hasn't work for me yet. I have universal setting in SIPDefault.cnf and phone specific settings in SIPXX.cnf. But it doesn't get registered. I need to register it on two different asterisk boxes. So my SIPXX.cnf looks like this: phone_label: Zeeshan A Zakaria line1_name: 523 line1_displayname: Zeeshan A Zakaria line1_authname: 523 line1_password: 523 line1_shortname: x523 line2_name: 523 line2_displayname: Zeeshan line2_authname: 523 line2_password: 523 line2_shortname: x523 line3_name: 224 line3_displayname: Zeeshan line3_authname: 224 line3_password: 224 line3_shortname: x224 SIPDefault.cnf contains default settings along with proxy info like this: proxy1_address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx proxy1_port: 5060 proxy2_address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx proxy2_port: 5060 proxy3_address: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx proxy3_port: 5060 Same settings work fine from Grandstream phone, and X-lite. What am I missing on this Cisco phone configuration? That all looks fine, though I don't think the ports need quotes... You do have proxy_register: 1 too don't you? If so, check the debug output from sip set debug on, or, sip set debug peer 224 to see if it's reaching the server but not authenticating etc... Also, you can log into the phone using telnet to check status and restart registration (and many more things) d ___ -- 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 ___ -- 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

That's not my experience... e.g. SIP Phone show register LINE REGISTRATION TABLE Proxy Registration: ENABLED, state: REGISTERED line APR state timer expires proxy:port --- - -- -- 1 111 REGISTERED 115 98 192.168.1.1:5060 2 111 REGISTERED 115 98 192.168.1.12:5060 3 ...

NONE 0 0 undefined:0 1-BU 111 REGISTERED 115 98 192.168.1.1:5060 Note: APR is Authenticated, Provisioned, Registered I can see registers on both servers... d 2009/1/20 Yehavi Bourvine yehavi.bourv...@gmail.com From my experience it won't register to the second box, only to the first one.
