[Asterisk-Users] How to use Use different ports to authenticate SIP/IAX users

2005-10-18 Thread Obelix

Is there a way to config a sip user so that he appears to be connecting from a
different IP address?

I want to use different IP addresses to authenticate different accounts with
service providers rather than the username/password combo.

Are there SIP settings to allow that?

Hi,

We have done it a little different...that said though, we have had

Nortel though!, so not the gospel ; ) :

OK. that's the easy part :-)
  
  
On the Option 11C, there is a 9-page PDF on how to do it - I can send
it direct if you send me your email addresses, to avoid sending it to
the entire list.
  
  
The only issue we face with the way we have it set up is that the
Nortel won't send name and number for caller ID, only number - if we
figure that out, I'll update the list. Of course, if anyone else
already knows :-)

That will tell you if * is listening and what it's listening on.
Then if it show's * is listening, it must be a permit =, or a firewall
issue.


Though most firewalls allow everything on the interface lo. My guess is
that either asterisk is not running or it has not been *restarted* since
the configuration change. Reloading is not enough to change the
IP address(es) Asterisk listens on or make it start listen at all
(right?)

Make sure you restart the process, it sounds as if you've probably restarted 
it a fair few times though..

We have a partial T1 (5B + D, iirc) from Allstream - there may be a

[Asterisk-Users] Talkoff (Spurious DTMF) with 1.0.9.2 and TE406P

2005-10-18 Thread George Pajari
We recently migrated a couple of PRIs to Asterisk 1.0.9.2 and a TE406P 
and are getting reports of talkoff (spurious/random DTMF tones heard by 
people on SIP equipment connected to the Asterisk server. We previously 
were using 1.0.3 with a T100P without any talkoff.


(a) We have not set relaxdtmf.
(b) There is no apparent pattern to the problem (seems to affect users 
on ATAs as well as SIP phones from different manufacturers).


Any suggestions?

  I'm very new to this list and to asterisk and stuff at all.
  To build my asterisk server I installed a new machine running the new
  SUSE Linux 10.0 (retail version on DVD).
  I need asterisk (tried 1.0.9), bristuff (off junghanns.net,
  -0.2.0-RC8o) and the florz-patch because I have two HFC-S-ISDN cards
  in that machine.
  Now when it comes to compiling I get a huge bunch of warnings and
  stuff, zaptel 1.0.9.2 fails to compile and asterisk 1.0.9 also fails
  to compile.
  
  SUSE 10.0 uses gcc 4.0.2 and as I asked in some other mailing list and
  forums, that is the reason why * stuff fails to compile.
  
  Is there any stable asterisk version available which does compile fine
  on a gcc4.x ?
  
  If not, will the * source be changed to finely compile on gcc 4.x?
  If yes, when will that be? (I need the * stuff now).
  If not, why not?
  
  What's on with the 1.2.0-beta stuff out there on the asterisk.org webpages?
  Does that one compile on gcc4.x ?
 

 I've been running a * (cvs HEAD) instance on Debian unstable, which has
 upgraded to gcc 4. Gcc 4 still has problems compiling the kernel (as of
 2.6.12) on debian, and you want to use the same version of the compiler
 on the zaptel modules that you do on the kernel. 
 
 I was unable to get a clean compile of the kernel or * with gcc 4.

You can ask about this in Debian lists. I don't have unstable so I can't
test for myself, but the current unstable kernel surely builds for them.

As for Asterisk 1.2: It should hit experimental any day now. There are
also unofficial debs at http://rapid.dotsrc.org/experimental/ . If those
don't build with gcc 4 then this should be reported. Most gcc 4
incompatibility bugs I saw were fixed pretty fast.

Asterisk 1.0.9 and bristuff RC8l (the current package in unstable)
probably builds with gcc4. I'm not sure if it has the florz patch in it.

[Asterisk-Users] CAPI - displaying individual MSN

2005-10-18 Thread Stefan Günther
Hi,

I'm currently using chan_capi-cm-0.6, with the following capi.conf:

[general]
nationalprefix=0
internationalprefix=00
rxgain=0.8
txgain=0.8
language=de

[ISDN1]
msn=8304490
incomingmsn=8304490
isdnmode=msn
group=1
controller=1
softdtmf=1
context=demo
echosquelch=1
echocancel=yes
echotail=64
callgroup=1
devices=2

Each user has a different numer, e.g. 83044910, 83044911, 83044912 and
so on.
This number should appear on the display of the called party, but how do
I configure this?
With the above configuration the display always shows 8304490.
I've tried to change the number in the dialplan, but this doesn't change
anything:

exten = _90[23456789].,1,SetCIDNum(83044912)
exten = _90[23456789].,2,Dial(Capi/g1/${EXTEN:1},30,tr)

If I remove the mns line in the capi.conf or set msn=* or msn=830449*
Asterisk isn't able to open the CAPI channel.

Does anyone have a hint for me?
If yes - THANK YOU ;-)

Stefan

That solves only part of the problem and is easily worked around.  One
problem is mass calls, either for wardialing or call centers doing
telemarketing.  And does nothing for prank calls, but you can almost
never stop those.

Tracking IPs in registration can help weed out some (but not all)
mlutiple account users.  That also makes it hard for roommates to each
have their own accounts as they would most likely be using NAT.  This
coupled with a group count of 1 per account can help mitigate but not
eliminate war dialers/telemarketers from abusing the service.  The
reality is that it will most likely take multiple tactics ...

A credit system per account can be implemented, where duty cycle
determines when the next call can be placed (ie avoid continous calling
out by forcing them to not have concurrent calls for a while, if they
stay off for a while they can build credits and make a few calls in
rapid succession before being turned down).  The shorter the duration
each call is potentially the greater the chance they are doing something
undesirable.  Telemarketers and war dialers tend to not stay on the call
for 20 minutes or more ...

Another method is to just put a cap not more than X calls per Y
timeframe can be placed.  

That will slow but not prevent it.  Take for example a group of people
who do a distributed war dialing project.  If they all have 10 calls per
hour and there are more than 6 of them then continous calls can be
placed, providing the calls are 1 minute in duration.  

For authentication you can take the ebay approach.  Ban free mail
providers.  Of course getting the list of free mail providers is the
trick.  This mitigates but does not eliminate people using multiple
accounts.  I have a couple domains myself, friends also have several
domains.  I could in theory have 100 email addresses all completly
different, and all 'non-free'.  Checking MX records to see where the
mail goes to see if its all going to the same machine might help but
adds a ton of overhead to the process.

Checking IPs on signup wouldnt be that effective given that there are
thousands of proxy servers all over, making that almost impossible to
prevent.  It would just add another hurdle for someone to leap over, the
more there are the more likely people will not bother becuase it wont be
worth it, but there are always those dedicated few.  Programs like
proxychains aide in even using an iax client to connect via proxies,
providing the proxy supports all the required protocols.

I dont think you can stop it, only make it hard to use for the
undesirable purposes, at the risk of making it so hard to use that no
one will want to use it, which generally is a bad thing.  I am also sure
that there are other things that someone else can contribute that used
in combination or in stead of my suggestions can make this harder to
wardial/telemarket through but easy enough for everyone else to use.

You could restrict it to folks with DIDs and make sure their DID goes  
out on outbound calls,

giving the victims of pranks a place to complain.
You could also change the signup so that we have to provide a pots  
number as a contact point.


Otherwise I'd be happy to be limited to (say) 100 different numbers I  
can call, that would limit

the wardialers at least.


Keep up the good work.

Tim.

[Asterisk-Users] Slow dialling from PBX into * via E1

2005-10-18 Thread Gavin Hamill
Hi :)

I have a little 'slow dialling' problem. When I dial, e.g.
200# for the Asterisk 'echo test' demo application from my PBX extension
1010, I see this in the console the instant I press the # key:
 
  -- Starting simple switch on 'Zap/65-1'
  -- Accepting overlap call from '1010' to '200' on channel 0/3, span 3
 
then exactly 3 seconds elapses, and finally
 
  -- Executing Playback(Zap/65-1, demo-echotest) in new stack
  -- Playing 'demo-echotest' (language 'en')
 
at which point Allison's 'sultry' voice announces 'You are 
about to enter an echo test...'
 
Can I remove this 3 second pause? It's rather annoying, and 
it doesn't happen when I dial out from the PBX to a normal 
PSTN line or to a PBX-provided extension, or indeed to any 
local ISDN2 device.

Even with debug + verbose both at 99, I see no extra information 
 
I'm using a Sangoma A104u with wanpipe-beta15-2.3.3.tgz and
Asterisk/Zaptel/Libpri 1.2.0-beta1.

The extensions.conf is trivial

[general]
static=yes
writeprotect=yes

[fromaxxess]
exten = 200,1,Playback(demo-echotest)  ; Let them know what's going on
exten = 200,2,Echo ; Do the echo test
exten = 200,3,Playback(demo-echodone)  ; Let them know it's over

Sangoma's support can't understand how it can be their drivers / cards

[Asterisk-Users] fax device behind TDM400P

2005-10-18 Thread Rico -mc- Gloeckner
Hello,

iam trying to connect an analogue Fax (as opposed to a ISDN Fax device)
behind a TDM400P.  However, when i connect the Fax to the Card, asterisk
shows it as always being offhook.  Iam currently out of ideas what might
be wrong.  The Fax device is connected using a 1:1 four-wire RJ cable. The
setup in zapata.conf is:

| callwaiting=0
| context=fax_out
| faxdetect=both
| adsi=0
| callerid=309
| channel =2

[Asterisk-Users] error while writing audio data: : Broken pipe

2005-10-18 Thread Corrado
Dear Asterisk developers,

I run the same asterisk version on the home machine and on the work. On 
the home machine I have Slackware 10.0 (kernel 2.4.24) while on the work

When I run asterisk on the work machine, these warnings and error appear (there 
are no warnings or error at home):

Re: [Asterisk-Users] CAPI - displaying individual MSN

2005-10-18 Thread Philipp von Klitzing
Hi!

 msn=8304490
 incomingmsn=8304490
 
 Each user has a different numer, e.g. 83044910, 83044911, 83044912 and
 so on.
 This number should appear on the display of the called party, but how do
 I configure this?

 I've tried to change the number in the dialplan, but this doesn't change

 If I remove the mns line in the capi.conf or set msn=* or msn=830449*
 Asterisk isn't able to open the CAPI channel.

You need to modify incomingmsn= and not msn= for this to work as
expected. Also be aware that often these two settings require different
values for the same meaning, e.g. you might have to add the area prefix
for the msn= setting (40 for Hamburg, 89 for München etc). If however
your Asterisk is behind a PBX then your incoming MSN might only have to be 910, 
911 and 912.

The above applies also to your SetCIDNum statement, it must match a
valid (!) MSN.

Cheers, Philipp

Use incomingmsn=* to specify which MSN shall be handled by Astreisk.

Are you sure you have PtMP (MSN) connection? When you have numbers like
83044910, 83044911, 83044912,... and the display shows 8304490, then it 
looks like a PtP connection with base number 830449-X.
If thats the case, you should
- switch to isdnmode=did
- SetCIDNum(12), instead of SetCIDNum(83044912)

[Asterisk-Users] Custom Callback

2005-10-18 Thread Dinesh
Hello All,

I am trying to create a custom callback on asterisk.

[custom-callback] 
exten = s,1,Wait(2) 
exten = s,2,Hangup
exten = s,3,Dial(Zap/g0/92962676)
exten = s,4,DigitTimeout(5)
exten = s,5,ResponseTimeout(10)
exten = s,6,Authenticate(1234) 
exten = s,7,DISA(no-password|from-internal)
exten = s,8,Hangup


If I ring my DID and if Caller ID is my cell number, the asterisk server
should hang up the call, Issue a Congestion to my phone and call me back on
a set cell phone number(doesn't need to be the same as the CID). How do I do
this on this thing?  I dunno much about AGI so any pointers would be nice:)

Thanks,

Dinesh.

with a 2.6 kernel you will get these errors as there is nothing to

[Asterisk-Users] Recomendations for utility to generate Asterisk configuration

2005-10-18 Thread Frank Tarczynski
I need some help generating configuration files for Asterisk.  Since I'm 
running under Solaris I'm having trouble with some of the utilities that 
are more linux-centric.


Can anyone recommend a free/low-cost package to generate conf files that 
is not linux-dependent and will handle a IAX2 and SIP trunk?

[Asterisk-Users] Queues and call waiting indication

2005-10-18 Thread afoc
Hi,

I'm running 1.2 beta1 in a mini call center.

I have 3 queues with 10 operators, and I'm running into some trouble because 
when all the operators are busy answering call asterisk still sends them more, 
resulting in a beep beep (call waiting) over and over again in Xlite audio.

An easy solution woud be the use of a single line user agent, like firefly, 
still this behaviour does not make any sense to me.

I tried using incominglimit and outgoinglimit in my sip.conf, even if they are 
deprecated: no luck.

Here is a sample from my queues.conf, something wrong in my setup maybe ?

Tnx for any help!

[Asterisk-Users] Agent recording and muxmon

2005-10-18 Thread Julian Lyndon-Smith
I was wanting to use the new MuxMon application to record calls - it 
seems to be a nicer way of recording than the Monitor application.


However, there is a slight issue with agents - we use the recordcalls 
option in agents.conf to record inbound agent calls - and I believe from 
looking at the source code that is uses the monitor application.


Is there any way to get chan_agent to use muxmon instead of monitor, or

a) Do I have to patch chan_agent.c
b) Can I modify my dialplan to use muxmon and remove the record calls 
option from agents.conf ?


Julian.

SV: [Asterisk-Users] Queues and call waiting indication

2005-10-18 Thread jan.sarin
 
Hi,

This issue has been discussed probably a million times on every asterisk forum 
in the world and I have the same problem too. Another problem you would have 
with the agents is that when they make an outgoing call they are not regarded 
as busy by asterisk and it sends more calls to the agent if it has call 
waiting enabled.

This behaviour is totally senseless since the whole purouse of queues is to 
_queue_ the callers until the agent is available. available usually means 
not on the phone -- whether or not it's an incoming or outgoing call.

I solved this problem by using single-line clients and phones where you can 
turn off call wating.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] fax device behind TDM400P

Rico,

I assume you are connecting the fax to an FXS port on your TDM400P as FXO
will not work.

Have you tired a different RJ11 cable between the FXS port and the fax.
Surprisingly, cables seem to be one of the most common causes of these types
of problems.  It the cable was made poorly or stretched too much at some
point, there may be a short which will cause the offhook condition.

Finally, connect a standard analog telephone to that port and see if you
have any issues with offhook and dialtone.  If all is well with the ananlog
phone, then you can safely assume that the problem is your fax machine.  If
you have a spare fax, give it a try.  If you are in a business area, maybe
you can borrow a fax from a neighbor.

Finally, if you cannot locate a fax to test, here is a cheap ($30 after
rebate)  fax that may meet your needs for testing and actually may make a
great backup fax.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Recomendations for utility to generate Asteriskconfiguration

2005-10-18 Thread asterisk

 I need some help generating configuration files for Asterisk.  Since I'm
 running under Solaris I'm having trouble with some of the utilities that
 are more linux-centric.

 Can anyone recommend a free/low-cost package to generate conf files that
 is not linux-dependent and will handle a IAX2 and SIP trunk?

 Frank


Frank,

I am not a Solaris guy so let me offer a work around that should work well
for you.

If you have an old laptop or desktop that is not being used, install
[EMAIL PROTECTED] on it.  Use the AMP piece of [EMAIL PROTECTED] to do all of 
your
configurations.  When done, click on the red bar which writes the .conf
files from the MySQL database, then use WinSCP to copy all of your confs to
the Solaris box (assuming WinSCP works with Solaris).  You could also just
FTP the files if you have to.

I think this might be the easiest way to create a working system with the
benefit of the additional dialplan functionality that comes with [EMAIL 
PROTECTED]

Thanks,
Steve

AMP's dialplan and setup is quite complex. Requires, e.g, a number of

This is normally not the type of thing you'd like to hand-edit later
after the initial adaptation to the target system.

[Asterisk-Users] Hints on hardware to use

2005-10-18 Thread Jonathan
Hello,

I have to deploy an Asterisk PBX with this requirements:
- 1 or 2 ISDN lines in input/output
- 14 internal analog phones (yes, I know, analog ones...  ;(  )
- Billing interface for the operator (for usage of analog phones)

For the external interface I'm thinking about Beronet Quad Span ISDN/BRI Card 
TE/NT (BN4S0).
I'm in trouble about the internal interfaces: the first thought was about 
Digium card (4 x TDM400P with 2 x S100M modules each), but it's difficult to 
find a MB with 5 PCI, and I'll have no chanches for future expansions.

Does anyone of you know a PCI card with 8 FXS port that SURELY works with 
Asterisk?
I'm ready to examine any other piece of hardware with 8 or more FXS ports, 
too...

By the way, for billing operations I'm going to check AstBill sofware; did 
anyone positively try it with asterisk in operational environment? 

Any hint will be greatly appreciated...  ;)

Thanks


Jonathan

Who said anything about hand editing?

That is why you would want to keep the old computer running [EMAIL PROTECTED]  
Instead
of hand editing anything, make the changes on the [EMAIL PROTECTED] box's AMP

copy them over again.  Very simple and most tech folks have an old computer
laying around somewhere that could be put to use.

For your internal analog extensions why not get a Digium T1 card and a
channel bank.  I only have experience with Adtran 600E but they work
extremely well and can be had used on ebay for about $600 regularly (if you
are lucky you may be able to get it much cheaper.)  I read the Rhino channel
banks are much cheaper and work well with asterisk but have no personal
experience.

With the Channel bank solution, you are looking at $500 for the T1 board and
another $600 for the channel bank with 24 FXS ports.  Its a solid solution
and gives you tons of room to upgrade from 14 FXS ports to 24 by simply
adding phones.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro

[Asterisk-Users] Display number dialled

2005-10-18 Thread James Steven



Hi
Is it possible with 
Asterisk to tellthe called party which number was dialled by the 
caller? Or in place of the number dialled have a description such as 
'Sales' or 'Accounts'? Ideally, I would like to show a description 
corresponding to the number dialled followed by CIDName. 
How might this be set up? 

Currently my 
extensions.conf is:

exten = 
xx,1,LookupCIDNameexten = xx,2,Dial(SIP/xx,50)exten = 
xx,3,Voicemail(xx)exten = xx,4,Hangup

Thanks for your

[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk and Dialogic

2005-10-18 Thread Shawn Porter
Hi all,

  I have a colleague who is very stuck on dialogic boards.  I now the
asterisk web site says it supports some dialogic boards but has anyone
actually
installed one and gotten it to work.  I tried once to install Dialogic SR
5.1.1 with a D/41JCT-LS but gave up and ended up reformatting and going to a
wildcard.

 I appreciate any feedback, as it will end up being my job to install and
configure the server and I am not looking forward to it.

[Asterisk-Users] Assistance with loging a particular event.

2005-10-18 Thread Chris Modesitt








I am attempting to unify how numbers come to me from a
specific T1, this T1 acts as an ingress for about 4000 DIDS. About 98% of
those DIDS come in as a 10-digit DNIS, what I would like to do is have asterisk
log when a number comes in 7 or 11 digit so I can contact my upstream provider
and have them translate those DIDS to 10 digit.



I think I can achieve this by modifying my dial-plan I am
just hoping somebody else has done something similar so I dont have to
re-create the wheel.



Thanks in advance!



Chris

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Recomendations for utility togenerateAsteriskconfiguration

2005-10-18 Thread asterisk





  
  
  

  AMP's dialplan and setup is quite complex. 
  Requires, e.g, a number of
  AGIs.
  
  This is normally not the type of thing you'd like 
  to hand-edit later
  after the initial adaptation to the target 
  system.

Who said anything about hand editing?

That is why you would want to keep the old computer 
running [EMAIL PROTECTED]. Instead
of hand editing anything, make the changes on the 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] box's AMP GUI and
copy them over again. Very simple and most tech folks 
have an old computer
laying around somewhere that could be put to 
use.
  Why wouldn't you just install [EMAIL PROTECTED] on your main server then? Why install a 
  second server and go through the trouble of using scp to copy files back and 
  forth?
  
  Tom
  
  Maybe because you snipped the beginning of the 
  thread without reading the entire thread's context, but he is running on 
  Solaris. I am not sure what all is involved with installing [EMAIL PROTECTED] on solaris but I assume it is no trivial 
  task. WinSCP is very trivial IMHO and there is no "copying files back 
  and forth", just one direction, takes about twenty seconds and maybe 30 if you 
  are slow. Now you also have an almost hot swap server in case the 
  Solaris machine goes down, just swap IP addresses and hardware.
  
  Dont think of it as a second server since it will 
  have no clients (a server must have clients or it's not a server, right?) just 
  think of it as a configuration generator. A good analogy is MS 
  Frontpage. It is very common to use a graphical webdesign program to 
  generate files of code (HTML) and then upload those files to your 
  server. Same thing here.

Try chowning those files to asterisk.  I also think there is a script that
changes file ownership in the /var/aah_build directory (i am guessing here)

[Asterisk-Users] select codec based on extension

2005-10-18 Thread Simone Cittadini

I've the following installation :

|asterisk client| ---  |asterisk server| ---  |other asterisk server|

all the connections are made in IAX, the client and first server allows 
711 and 729

the other server only allows 729 since it has low bandwidth at disposal

all the numbers but a few are routed to a digium card in the first 
server, the others are routed to the other server, this way :


[default]

exten = _123X.,1,Dial(IAX2/otherserver/${EXTEN})
exten = _123X.,2,Hangup

exten = _X.,1,Dial(Zap/g1/${EXTEN})
exten = _X.,2,Hangup

when I call 123456 from the client box ...

on the client :
Call accepted by asterisk server (format alaw)

on the server :
Call accepted by other asterisk server (format g729)

on the other server :
Called [EMAIL PROTECTED]

and then on the server in the middle :
Oct 18 18:00:37 NOTICE[2846]: channel.c:1724 ast_set_write_format: 
Unable to find a path from alaw to g729
Oct 18 18:00:37 NOTICE[2846]: channel.c:1757 ast_set_read_format: Unable 
to find a path from g729 to alaw


since that something at the end of the call and the paps which sits 
before the first asterisk server both have g729, I don't like too much 
having to pay to translate something which need not translation.
Is there a clever combination of sip.conf, iax.conf and extensions.conf 
I'm missing to solve my problem ?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Can IAX be used without going thre a IAX server

2005-10-18 Thread asterisk



 Is it possible to route a call from an Asterisk box through the
 Internet to a IAX device (in this case Digium IAXy) without
 using an IAX service like IAXTel? I have it working on my
 local Ethernet LAN so it should be possible to use VPN to
 cross the internet. Anyone using VPN or other method to
 acomplish this?
 Thanks
 Chad
 ___

Yes.

You could use VPN if you need it for other reasons or do not want to open
ports on your firewall but if you dont mind opening ports and have no need
for VPN there is a much easier solution.

Go into your router and set port forwarding.  Set port 4569 to forward to
the IP of your * box.  Then reconfigure your IAXy to point to the public IP
of your router.  This works great!  I usually go a step further and setup a
DNS record for my domain to point to the public IP such as
iax2.yourdomain.com to make it easier to remember.

[Asterisk-Users] Newbie Question: Help with incoming dial plan

2005-10-18 Thread Dave Morrow
Title: Newbie Question: Help with incoming dial plan






Hi all. I just got Asterisk installed with a Digium TE110P T1 card. Have it working for outbound calls so I know that all the hardware is functioning.

Since all inbound calls come through my T1, I would like to setup a dial plan that handles the incoming call and tells the caller to enter the extension they wish to reach. All of my real extensions are in the [default] context, and the Zaptel is configured to go to the [default-incoming] context. It is the [default-incoming] context that I am unsure of how to set.

If anyone could provide some insight, it would be much appreciated.get me started at least.

Title: Newbie Question: Help with incoming dial plan



This is how I do it.

[default-incoming]exten = 
2691,1,Goto(extensions,3212,1)exten = 
2692,1,Goto(extensions,3204,1)exten = 
2693,1,Goto(extensions,3207,1)exten = 
2694,1,Goto(extensions,3212,1)exten = 
2695,1,Goto(extensions,3205,1)exten = 
2696,1,Goto(extensions,3208,1)exten = 
2697,1,Goto(extensions,1105,1)exten = 
3211,1,Goto(extensions,,1)exten = 
3223,1,Goto(extensions,3207,1)
You will have to know how many digits are being 
sent, in my case it is four. So for example, someone dials the DID 
xxx-xxx-2691 the dialplan matches on the first line and then sends the cal to 
the context "extensions" (you would replace with default) and the extension 
"3212" in the first priority.

If more or less digits are being sent by the telco, 
you will have to adjust the exten =  to match. Sometimes they send 
three.

  [default-incoming]exten = 
  2691,1,Goto(extensions,3212,1)exten = 
  2692,1,Goto(extensions,3204,1)exten = 
  2693,1,Goto(extensions,3207,1)exten = 
  2694,1,Goto(extensions,3212,1)exten = 
  2695,1,Goto(extensions,3205,1)exten = 
  2696,1,Goto(extensions,3208,1)exten = 
  2697,1,Goto(extensions,1105,1)exten = 
  3211,1,Goto(extensions,,1)exten = 
  3223,1,Goto(extensions,3207,1)
  You will have to know how many digits are being 
  sent, in my case it is four. So for example, someone dials the DID 
  xxx-xxx-2691 the dialplan matches on the first line and then sends the cal to 
  the context "extensions" (you would replace with default) and the extension 
  "3212" in the first priority.
  
  If more or less digits are being sent by the 
  telco, you will have to adjust the exten =  to match. Sometimes 
  they send three.

Question: Help with incoming dial plan

Hi all. I just got Asterisk installed with 
a Digium TE110P T1 card. Have it working for outbound calls so I know 
that all the hardware is functioning.
Since all inbound calls come through my T1, I 
would like to setup a dial plan that handles the incoming call and tells the 
caller to enter the extension they wish to reach. All of my real 
extensions are in the [default] context, and the Zaptel is configured to go 
to the [default-incoming] context. It is the [default-incoming] 
context that I am unsure of how to set.
If anyone could provide some insight, it would be 
much appreciated…….get me started at least.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] compiling Asterisk 1.2 with zaptel and h.323

2005-10-18 Thread Bohuslav Coufal
On FC4 is better to use pwlib 1.9.1 and openh323 1.17.2.

I think, that OPENH3232DIR= is wrong. Better is OPENH323DIR= :-).

If You use standard prefix for instalation o packages there is a better way 
instad copy library edit /etc/ld.co.conf and use /usr/local/lib/ as next 
source of shared library.

Anyway, your text is very usefull.

 Hello list,
 I have prepared a small recipe on how to compile Asterisk 1.2 beta 1 with
 a TDM400 card and H.323.
 You can find it at http://www.oinko.net/astrecipes/index.php?n=102

 Any comment / suggestion / modification /bugfix is welcome!

 I was wondering: is there any way to build a version of Bristuff for 1.2

[Asterisk-Users] Polycom IP501 and record on demand

2005-10-18 Thread james.texter
I am doing some experimenting with Asterisk 1.0.9 and Polycom IP501's.  I have 
the extensions setup, and everything is working well up to this point.  Now, I 
want to setup my system so that a user at an extension can start a recording on 
demand.  I have tried various Google searches, but am coming up empty.  Could 
someone point me in the right direction, or have some sample Polycom/Asterisk 
configuration files I can look at?  Ideally, I would like this to just be 
programmed to a soft key on the IP501.

Thanks,

James

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Hints on hardware to use

2005-10-18 Thread Jonathan
On Wednesday 19 October 2005 15:34, asterisk wrote:
  Hello,
  I have to deploy an Asterisk PBX with this requirements:
  - 1 or 2 ISDN lines in input/output
  - 14 internal analog phones (yes, I know, analog ones...  ;(  )
  - Billing interface for the operator (for usage of analog phones)
  For the external interface I'm thinking about Beronet Quad Span ISDN/BRI
  Card TE/NT (BN4S0).
  I'm in trouble about the internal interfaces: the first thought was about
  Digium card (4 x TDM400P with 2 x S100M modules each), but it's difficult
  to find a MB with 5 PCI, and I'll have no chanches for future expansions.
  Does anyone of you know a PCI card with 8 FXS port that SURELY works with
  Asterisk?
  I'm ready to examine any other piece of hardware with 8 or more FXS
  ports, too...
  By the way, for billing operations I'm going to check AstBill sofware;
  did anyone positively try it with asterisk in operational environment?
  Jonathan

 For your internal analog extensions why not get a Digium T1 card and a
 channel bank.  I only have experience with Adtran 600E but they work
 extremely well and can be had used on ebay for about $600 regularly (if you
 are lucky you may be able to get it much cheaper.)  I read the Rhino
 channel banks are much cheaper and work well with asterisk but have no
 personal experience.

 With the Channel bank solution, you are looking at $500 for the T1 board
 and another $600 for the channel bank with 24 FXS ports.  Its a solid
 solution and gives you tons of room to upgrade from 14 FXS ports to 24 by
 simply adding phones.

 Thanks,
 Steve Totaro

It's surely a better way than mine to solve the problem...
But how can I integrate Adtran 600E with Asterisk box (apart the phisical 
connection with the two T1 ports)? How changes the configuration of Asterisk 
files? Is it like a bridge across two T1 lines or what?
I'm not so expert about this type of Asterisk configurations: can I find hints 
or docs somewhere?

I've also googled a bit, and I've found the MOSA3716 box: 16 FXS and 2 
ethernet ports, for about 1.200$ at bobascom.
What do you think about it? It seems * compatible, and with ethernet ports it 
wouldn't need anything else than 1 ISDN card for inbound/outgoing calls...

It could be completely transparent to * box and the analog phones...
Have you ever heard something about it?

Thanks in advance

Asterisk (Current Stable) and Sipura-841 phones.While talking on an

I've updated the firmware on the 841 but it had no effect.   I've also

Why is asterisk allowing an invite after receiving a bye on a particular 
session/channel? From what I've read.. a bye should be the termination 
of the session/channel and therefore it should be hungup and removed.. 
yet it is not.


I am using cvs head from 2005-10-08 00:00 .. I can't use the latest cvs 
head as it's rather ugly with sip right now.. especially on 
refer/redirect/reinvites.. but that will be left for a different topic.


I believe from looking at things that the sip gateway involved with the 
sip session is re-using a particular call identifier immediately after 
it believes that call from before is gone.. (possibly a bug on the 
vendor side as far as that goes) but regardless of whether the vendor is 
immediately re-using a session id or not should not matter as the fact 
seems to be that asterisk allows this situation to happen when (from 
what I've been reading) it should not. Does anyone have any comments or 
thoughts on this?

  This is how I do it.
  
  [default-incoming]exten = 
  2691,1,Goto(extensions,3212,1)exten = 
  2692,1,Goto(extensions,3204,1)exten =

  3211,1,Goto(extensions,,1)exten = 
  3223,1,Goto(extensions,3207,1)
  You will have to know how many digits are being 
  sent, in my case it is four. So for example, someone dials the DID 
  xxx-xxx-2691 the dialplan matches on the first line and then sends the cal to 
  the context "extensions" (you would replace with default) and the extension 
  "3212" in the first priority.
  
  If more or less digits are being sent by the 
  telco, you will have to adjust the exten =  to match. Sometimes 
  they send three.

You could also take a look at features.conf, and use ** for blind

I haven't tried mapping them to polycom buttons, but there was recently 
a discussion about that, just this week you can search the archives.

  Yup.
 


I finally got time to spend on looking into this again.

 If you were to use ztmonitor on the channel to record the transmit and
 receive sides to separate wav files, drive an impulse down the channel
 (ie. a sharp, loud click) and then load the files into a tool where
 they could be viewed side by side you'd see the actual echo endpath
 (tail) length.

How does one use ztmonitor to record into separate files for transmit
and receive? My ztmonitor man page doesn't describe how to do this, it
only allows one -f File specification.

When I monitored a sample conversation with ztmonitor, it recorded both
channels in one file. Then I set up a call from the number which gives
us big echo. Although I heard echo when I was on the call, the
recorded version of the call did not record the echo.

There are two possibilities here:
1. it wasn't recording the incoming call leg.
2. the echo is entirely internal to our system

I couldn't see how #1 could be the case when the immediately previous
ztmonitor recorded both call legs. On the other hand, I told the remote
party to just put the phone down so I have no evidence that any sound
they made was missing.

But I can't see how #2 is the case either, since it only affects certain
phone numbers, and it affects them consistently whenever it happens.

I have a feeling I just did something wrong, so I'll go back and try
again. I'll also try a greater echocancel= value and see if it
helps.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk Redundency

2005-10-18 Thread Adam Moffett



Hi,

I wish to use Asterisk as a SIP server.
How do I use Asterisk in a redundent network?
So, if one Asterisk server fails, how does failover work?

James

 

James, I've been working on the same thing.  I think it's pretty 
important too because phone providers shoot for five-nine availablity, 
so people are pretty much accustomed to their phones just plain working 
all the time.  And if they don't work there's hell to pay.


I think the simplest way would be to use SIP adapters that allow you to 
specify a backup server.  I can't think of any off the top of my head, 
but I have definitely seen them.  Then you just need to keep the configs 
synchronized between your two servers (via rsync or what have you).  The 
problems of course are that it limits your options for SIP adapters, and 
you have to be in an evironment where you can control which SIP adapters 
people are using.


Since I can't do that, what I've settled on is heartbeat + mon.  
Heartbeat will monitor for a system level failure and switch to the 
backup machine if neccesary; and mon will watch the asterisk (or any 
other) service and restart it and/or alert me if it fails.


There are other options for high availability.  Google for linux 
clustering or [your platform] clustering.  I only stuck with 
heartbeat and mon because they were both relatively simple to set up (as 
long as you stick with a heartbeat version 1 config).

[Asterisk-Users] Re: Asterisk-Users Digest, Vol 15, Issue 108

2005-10-18 Thread Noah Miller

Hi James -

I am doing some experimenting with Asterisk 1.0.9 and Polycom  
IP501's.  I have the extensions setup, and everything is working  
well up to this point.  Now, I want to setup my system so that a  
user at an extension can start a recording on demand.  I have tried  
various Google searches, but am coming up empty.  Could someone  
point me in the right direction, or have some sample Polycom/ 
Asterisk configuration files I can look at?  Ideally, I would like  
this to just be programmed to a soft key on the IP501.


This sounds like another thread that was recently on this list.   
AFAIK, the only way to record a live conversation is to transfer a  
call to an extension with a monitor command.  That requires at least  
two key presses (e.g. #8).  The key remapping feature of the Polycom  
phones only allows you to map a single key to another key.  However,  
some ingenious person on the list came up with the idea of mapping a  
speed dial to another key to handle multiple key presses mapped to a  
single key.  Unfortunately, the Polycom phones always interpret a  
speed dial as request to start a new channel, so it can't be done on  
calls already in progress.  There doesn't seem to be any kind of  
workaround yet.  I'd love to be able to do something similar for call  
parking.


We may have to petition Polycom for a new feature.  If you do happen  
to come up with anything, though, let us know.

[Asterisk-Users] strange behavior after turning jitter buffer on

2005-10-18 Thread Adam Moffett

This is with asterisk 1.20beta1:

I was experiencing moments of sporadic silence, so I thought to turn on 
the jitter buffer in iax.conf.
I started with the following settings, which are basically ripped from 
the sample config:

jitterbuffer=yes
forcejitterbuffer=no
maxjitterbuffer=1000
resyncthreshold=1000
maxjitterinterps=10

After doing this I encountered something a little different.  When I 
call my cell phone from a SIP phone (via asterisk and an IAX 
connection); the cell rings, I answer it, the cell claims it is 
connected, but I continue to hear ringing on the SIP phone until the 
Dial application times out (45 secs).  I don't see anything bad 
happening in the log except that chan_iax2 seems to think that no one 
has answered.  To make it more interesing, this doesn't happen on every 
call.


Excerpt from the log file detailing the call is below (with my actual 
cell phone number and teliax username obscured).


Does anyone have any thoughts on the matter?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] strange behavior after turning jitter buffer on

2005-10-18 Thread Adam Moffett
To avoid any confusion, you may note that the Dial Application does not 
time out in this log excerpt as I described.  That's because I hung up 
the cell phone instead of waiting for the timeout.


And before anyone asks, setting jitterbuffer=off made the problem go away.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Talkoff (Spurious DTMF) with 1.0.9.2 and TE406P

Any suggestions?

Digium support can also help you with this, but as you load the module, 
there is a
parameter that you can adjust the relaxedness of DTMF detection.  It 
is called dtmfthreshold and it defaults to 1000.  The higher that it is 
set to makes it more stringent in DTMF detection (i.e., less likely to 
have talk off).  At about 2000-2500, most people
stop getting DTMF events altogether, so that might be the range that 
you want to play around with.

[Asterisk-Users] Forwarding Extensions using dialplan

2005-10-18 Thread Dave Morrow
Title: Forwarding Extensions using dialplan






Hi all. So far this list is proving it's worth, even on my first day using it!


I hope that someone might know an easy solution to this one.


I would like to create a dial plan which will allow me to have all extensions 6XXX cause a dial-out of my T1 interface to a local number, wait for an answer, wait 2 seconds and then enter the extension. Can I do this in a dial plan somehow? This will allow me to pseudo-integrate a legacy telephone switch (whose extensions are all 6XXX) to my Asterisk system for direct extension dialing.

Almost there  - I would suggest the echo is indeed present, but the time taken 
for the echo to arrive back on the zap interface is imperceptibly small (ie  
20ms) so you can't perceive it as an 'echo'. You might still be able to see the 
reflection if the impulse is sharp (ie. short) enough by loading the wav file 
from ztmonitor into Sonogram (http://www.dfki.de/~clauer/sonogram/) and 
visually examining the waveform. If the echo delay path is too short to see 
then the reflection will have been merged with the transmitted signal in the 
consolidated file and have just resulted in an increase in amplitude.

It's the time delay due to processing and conveyance inside Asterisk and 
everything else between your endpoint and the zap interface that causes the 
reflection to change from 'sidetone' to 'perceptible echo'. cmd_monitor() 
should be recording after at least some amount of delays are introduced, thus 
the echo should be clearly audible there.

It's very important to understand that short echo paths (ie.  20ms) occur 
quite frequently in the PSTN but unless something introduces an additional 
delay into the signal path, and ISDN based digital PBXs such as the Norstar or 
Meridian don't, the echo can't be perceived. Thus Asterisk, because everything 
it does involves packetization and it's associated processing and conveyance 
delays, needs to meet a much higher standard of echo cancellation.

Hope that helps.

RE:[Asterisk-Users] free dids on goiax.com

2005-10-18 Thread Rajesh kumar



I have been using goiax for my outgoing and has been excellent in quality 
ofvoice and also the service.To put the abusers out, I propose that 
each account holder shouldpre-register the phone numbers they typically 
call. For a legitimate user,pre-registration is certainly acceptable 
(especially for a free service),and if we give option of uploading an 
outlook address book or so, that wouldeven simplify the process. 
Pre-registration of outgoing calls will makeabusers' job lot harder and it 
is lot easier for hunting down the abusers aswell. If you want, you can set 
a maximum pre-registration limit as well.To avoid multiple account 
holders, i would take an approach of comparing IPaddresses at the time of 
registration itself. Suppose, if I want to create100 accounts for 100 email 
accounts, i will have to go to goiax.com andregister each and everyone of 
them; then collect the IP address of therequest and check against the 
existing accounts; you can set a maximum capon the number of accounts that 
could be registered from an IP (to allowroommates). If you set a max-cap to 
be 4, we can have all 4 roommates havetheir own accounts with each having 
pre-registered phone numbers. You canuse similar tactic to restrict the 
service users as well at the time ofallowing the outgoing call...

[Asterisk-Users] One phone ringing, one phone flashing ?

2005-10-18 Thread Stefan-Michael. Guenther (in-put GbR)
Hi,

well, some clients have strange ideas and wishes (at least to my mind).

Yesterday I gave a presentation about asterisk to a CEO.
At the end he asked me whether asterisk is able to do the following:

When a call for the CEO comes in, the calling number should be shown on the 
display of his phone and the phone of his secretary. The secretary's phones 
should ring, but at his phone only a light should flash.

;-)) No, turning off the sound isn't the solution.
This restriction should e.g. only apply, when it is an external call, internal 
calls should result in ringing both phones.

I'm not quite sure, whether this could be a feature of asterisk or the phone 
or both together.

Does anything of you successfully set up something like this or could 
recommend a phone that would help/support it?

Thanks a lot in advance,

Stefan

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Forwarding Extensions using dialplan

 Hi all.  So far this list is proving it's worth, even on my first day
 using it!
 
 I hope that someone might know an easy solution to this one.
 
 I would like to create a dial plan which will allow me to have all
 extensions 6XXX cause a dial-out of my T1 interface to a local number,
 wait for an answer, wait 2 seconds and then enter the extension.  Can
 I do this in a dial plan somehow?  This will allow me to
 pseudo-integrate a legacy telephone switch (whose extensions are all
 6XXX) to my Asterisk system for direct extension dialing.


It can, however how difficult this is varies greatly on the mapping
between old and new 6xxx numbers.

If you are using 1.1 or 1.2 code you can do this:

exten = _6xxx,1,Dial(Zap/1/${EXTEN},60,M(dialexten^${EXTEN}))

[macro-dialexten]
exten = s,1,wait(2)
exten = senddtmf(${arg1})


This causes asterisk to pattern match 6xxx where x is 0-9.  When the
called party answers the macro dialexten is called and that will send
the dtmf of the extension in question.  If the two are the same then no
translation is needed, if they are different then you have to play games
to match the new with the old.

 You can ask about this in Debian lists. I don't have unstable so I can't
 test for myself, but the current unstable kernel surely builds for them.

Sure, but it depends on which compiler they use... They may not use 4 on
the kernel.  In fact, I'm pretty sure they don't. The version of the
kernel I was compiling is the version WITH debian patches (latest.) And
it surely does not compile with gcc 4. 
 
 As for Asterisk 1.2: It should hit experimental any day now. There are
 also unofficial debs at http://rapid.dotsrc.org/experimental/ . If those
 don't build with gcc 4 then this should be reported. Most gcc 4
 incompatibility bugs I saw were fixed pretty fast.

The incompatabilities are going to be kernel compiled with one version
of GCC, zaptel module compiled with another. That, even if it appears to
work, is not a good idea.

NVFaxDetect, NVFaxEmail, and SpanDSP or Hylafax. NVFaxEmail can pull the

The quick and dirty solution to this that I'd put together would
involve a Cisco or Polycom multiline phone, and some careful magic with
ring tones. First, set up two different lines on the boss's phone- one
that you'll use for inbound external calls, the other that you'd use
for inbound internal calls. When a new call came in, the call
would be routed simultaneously (through DIAL(TECH/EXTNTECH/EXTN2)
) to both the secretary's phone and to the boss's phone external
line. The ringer can be independantly specified on each line for
the Cisco phone- so you specify a custom ringtone that's essentially
silent- record some dead air for his inbound external line.
Since the Cisco displays CID and flashes the red light on ringing, he
gets his flashing light- and it rings as needed at the secretaries desk.

Cheap, dirty solution- but functional in a short timeframe.

[Asterisk-Users] IP300 - Asterisk - Broadvoice - PSTN Choppy / cuts in and out

2005-10-18 Thread Mike
Hello All -

I've got an asterisksetup using 3 broadvoice lines and 5 Polycom IP300 phones. We have 1.5Mbit up and down via cable. 40ms (ave) pings to the broadvoice proxy and no packetloss. 

The phones sound like cell phones. The person on the other end complains about it cutting in and out. On our end, it cuts in and out as well.

Within the office, we can call from one IP300 to another with absolutely no problems at all. Sounds great.

We are connected through a Linksys (Firmware v1.05.0). Wired QoS is enabled with the asterisk box's mac being highest priority, and everything else being low. Upstream bandwidth is set to Auto. [I doubt these settings are the problem as the choppy/cell-phone-sounding effect also occurs when there is minimal network traffic.]


Any help troubleshooting this plz?

[Asterisk-Users] IAX only speech one way

2005-10-18 Thread Mir
Hello

I have two Asterisk's connected via IAX, they are sitting on the same
network, via a VPN, so there should be no problems with firewalls.

My problem is that when a person calls from A to B, A will not hear B
speak. B hears A fine.

I doesn't matter who initiates the call.

One of the Asterisk'ses is a new installation, just installed, but
with the Conf-files from an earlier setup, that worked fine.

Asterisk version on computer A is Asterisk CVS-v1-0-12/09/04-08:58:31
Asterisk version on computer B is Asterisk CVS-D2005.05.28.22.00.00-10/17/05

Two different versions, but I dont think it should matter?

 To put the abusers out, I propose that each account holder should
 pre-register the phone numbers they typically call. For a legitimate

 pre-registration is certainly acceptable (especially for a free
 service),
 and if we give option of uploading an outlook address book or so, that
 would
 even simplify the process. Pre-registration of outgoing calls will
 make
 abusers' job lot harder and it is lot easier for hunting down the
 abusers as
 well. If you want, you can set a maximum pre-registration limit as
 well.
 

Making lists of who you are going to call defeats the purpose.  If I
only wanted to call a small number of people I wouldnt need US48
termination.  If I have to upload a contact list (or enter it manually
which would be a lot more bothersome) I wouldnt use the service.  The
reason for that is I dont know who I am gonna call, and I dont give out
my address book to some website just because.  I would imagine that a
lot of other people would feel the same.

Now lets say a new pizza place opens up and runs a local commercial on
TV.  Some number if flashed on the screen but its not in my address
book.  I only use goiax for outbound.  I then have to register that
number to call to order a pizza?  Not very user friendly.  A friend is
staying in a hotel and I wish to call them I have to add that hotel as
well?  


 To avoid multiple account holders, i would take an approach of
 comparing IP
 addresses at the time of registration itself. 

What about all the proxy lists that exist freely available?  What about
proxy scanners that exist to find new unlisted ones?  What about the
fact that with most cable modem providers its trivial to get a new IP.  

Then there is the issue of dynamic IPs where people might sign up then
get a new IP someone new comes along and cant sign up becuase that IP is
already flagged as being at its maximum.  So you would have to timestamp
and purge the database occasionally.  A lot of overhead for a system so
easily defeated.

While I appreciate the problems Matthew is going through, this is a
complex issue, and one that has plagued the net for a long time.  How do
you authenticate random people on the internet as 1. unique and 2. as
themselves.  The net provides anonymity and without associating a
physical mail address and mailing them a code (slow, costly, etc) its
really hard to do that for a free service.  Credit cards can be used to
a degree to do this, but for a free service I seriously doubt anyone
will enter a credit card.  And on the same token I doubt that anyone
would scan in and email a copy of their drivers license either.  

If someone comes up with a way to authenticate users with no prior
contact that users will accept and adhere to for a free service like
this they could make a ton of money overnight because that is kinda one
of the holy grails of authentication that is desired right now (as it
has direct impacts on paid services).  This is a very complex problem
and so far the best methods require other forms of authentication based
on preexisting ones (ie credit card verification to match against) or
are costly (a code mailed to the person).
