[asterisk-users] Thomson ST2030 and Asterisk BLF
Hi everybody. I know there have been some posts in the past about this subject. However it seems I cannot get the Thomson ST2030 phone to work with BLF and call pickup. Firmware on the phones is 1.5t3 I've applied then patch to chan_sip.c which adds the else condition } else if (strstr(p-useragent, THOMSON)) { p-subscribed = DIALOG_INFO_XML; somewhere in the handle_request_subscribe() function. The hints are properly configured as well as the subscribecontext in sip.conf/extensions.conf In fact, the busy lamp is working (I can see busy lines and ringing lines on the phone), however call pickup is not. When a line key is flashing (i.e. the associated sip phone is ringing), if I press that key, the phone sends a SUBSCRIBE sip message to asterisk. I don't understand exatctly what the phone is expecting back from asterisk or how asterisk handles the SUBSCRIBE message, however the call is *not* picked up, and the status line key gets fast-blinking, and remains in that status, being unusable, until I reboot the phone. Any hint? Thanks.

I have sound breaking many times a day over the trunks. Server is AMD Athlon 2.4 GHz with 512MB RAM. Serial ports, parallel port and other unnecessary things on the motherboard are disabled. People in the office don't talk much with each other over the extensions, so can't say the performance of the system over the local network, but incoming and outgoing calls start giving trouble few times a day and people do complain about it. I was thinking if it was because of the linux kernel, which is 2.4.21-32.EL on CensOS 3, or because of the Tormenta PRI Interface card. There is no major use of the Internet in the office. Server is strong enough to handle calls. And there are never more than 3,4 calls at a time. In fact breaking of sound can happen when only one person is in the office and only one phone is being used. Please help before I start buying new stuff to replace some of the existing stuff, just to find out that it didn't help anyways.

We currently run the dialup PRI's to a seperate TNT We want to merge these all on to one TNT. I found out how to do dnis-or-voip for the call type on the voip line which allows me to set based on dialed number if its going to go to a modem or voip call, however, I'm trying to figure out how to set up the TNT to have voip origination use a certain PRI in the pool as the primary and then fail over to the other PRI's. I think it will probally involve setting up trunk groups, but I'm not entirely sure how I would set the trunk group for origination.

[asterisk-users] How to clear trixbox configuration
Hello all, To test some configs i forgot the trixbox web config (freepbx) and i made changes directly in asterisk config files (sip.conf, extensions.conf, etc). Result: asterisk is working ok but the the web config is totaly confused and, if i made a change via freepbx this not works ok. Only now i know that this changes will be made in file_custom.conf... problem of newbie... :). I also updated the asterisk for version 1.2.12.1, independently for the trixbox updating system. My trixbox version is 1.2.2. So i need to clear all configuration and start again only with the web config in freepbx. Is possible to clear all web configs and restitute all initial /etc/asterisk/* files to start from zero without re-installing all trixbox box from CD? Thanks in advance!

Re: [asterisk-users] Which IP phones have best voice quality, preferably under $150
Switching is what you want. NAT is Network Address Translation that allows the router to map IP addresses between router interfaces. You may wish to verify that all of the ports on your network, if automatically negotiated, did what you want. Probably, 100Mb, Full-Duplex. If not then force the config. Improper negotiation tends to drop packets. Everything appears to work, but slowly. Depending on your network infrastructure, you may also look into QOS. Bob...

[asterisk-users] Subscriptions and call back on busy problems with Snom phones
Hello guys, as davidded wrote on voip-info.org (http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+phone+snom), currently the Call completion feature of the SNOM phones interferes with subscriptions to Asterisk. To make subscriptions work correctly, you have to disable the call_completion feature of the snom phones. Without disabling this feature, after a call the subscriptions of the monitored extensions get lost. Unfortunately call_completion is needed for call back on busy. So you have decide between subscriptions or call back on busy :-(... Has anybody else experinced these problems? Maybe anyone got a patch :-)?

[asterisk-users] VOIP Bandwidth questions
Hello everyone, This probably isn't the correct place to ask this but I thought I'd check here first. We're getting ready to roll out a hosted pbx solution on a very limited trial basis (some company employees are going to get voip service at home). Our main issue is of course bandwidth. We have enough bandwidth (spread across two locations) to accommodate the few employees (around 10) for the near future but we're worried about how this is going to scale. Obviously at some point we'll need to consider 'real' bandwidth. My question is this: How do huge voip companies like vonage handle bandwidth. I'm pretty sure that they have to have sufficient bandwidth available for X numbers of simultaneous calls, in other words ALL VOIP traffic runs through their servers, right? My boss is of the mind that there is no way that this is a viable business model and his insistence has me doubting myself. So, to clarify - Vonage has to have the necessary bandwidth to handle whatever amount of simultaneous calls. I can imagine that one vonage user calling another vonage user would use some sort of sip re-invite and perhaps even calls to other huge providers (packet8) are direct client to client. (Last time I read about this it seems that even calls to other large voip providers go through the PSTN though). Barring voip to voip calls, everything must run through their bandwidth right? If I'm right on this, I guess we need to come up with some sort of viable business model to do sell our own service. I want to concentrate on smb clients to whom we can then provide an asterisk box which would leave our bandwidth free, but my boss isn't particularly keen on this route. Anyways, Thanks for any insight and advice on this question, sorry if I'm asking this in the wrong place Thanks, Steve ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

[asterisk-users] AGI Problems
Hi, I've got a setup whereby calls come into the asterisk server (1.2.7.1) over a IAX2 trunk and into a dialplan that launches a php AGI script: [live-full] exten = _X.,1,Set(TIMEOUT(absolute)=0) exten = _X.,2,NoOp(${EXTEN}) exten = _X.,3,DEADAGI(live-full.php) exten = _X.,4,Wait,2 exten = _X.,5,Hangup The script is using phpagi-2 from http://phpagi.sourceforge.net/ and works flawlessly in all but one aspect which I believe is related to asterisk rather than the script itself. As the script is launched using DEADAGI I expect it to carry on after the channel has been hungup (to save the results of the user input in this case) which works unless the users are leaving a voice message at the time. The script uses record_file and records ok if the user ends the call with a keypress (#) but if the user hangs up once they have finished leaving their message the script exits immediately rather than carrying on: Nov 2 11:45:57 VERBOSE[24262] logger.c: AGI Rx RECORD FILE /ivr/recordedtemp/1162467957 wav # 12 0 BEEP s=5 Nov 2 11:45:57 DEBUG[24262] channel.c: Set channel IAX2/AQL IAX-1 to read format slin Nov 2 11:45:57 DEBUG[24262] channel.c: Set channel IAX2/AQL IAX-1 to write format ulaw Nov 2 11:45:57 VERBOSE[24262] logger.c: -- Playing 'beep' (language 'en') Nov 2 11:45:58 DEBUG[24262] channel.c: Set channel IAX2/AQL IAX-1 to write format ulaw Nov 2 11:46:01 DEBUG[3658] chan_iax2.c: Immediately destroying 1, having received hangup Nov 2 11:46:01 VERBOSE[24262] logger.c: AGI Tx 200 result=0 (hangup) endpos=22560 Nov 2 11:46:01 DEBUG[24262] pbx.c: Spawn extension (live-full,70,3) exited non-zero on 'IAX2/AQL IAX-1' Does anyone know why the channel is closing down immediately rather than waiting for the script to exit?

Re: [asterisk-users] Snom or Cisco Phones?
CP,I've never heard complaints about the Snom 320 speakerphone hardware, nor do I think they sound bad from using the phones myself. I believe Snom did make a significant improvement to their speakerphone hardware not to long ago.Of course, there is never any guarantee on the "quality" of something, since I don't think something can please everyone. Maybe other users of this phone can post their feedback here as well and based upon that you can get a good idea of what your results should be.

Writing this as a user of VoIP and not a reseller, (meaning off the record), we really love the Snom phones here as well, I wish the Snom 300's had a bit more functionality (like the Grandstream), and the Snom 320's and 360's were a little less confusing with their buttons (aka too many buttons on the keypad for some non-tehcy end users). But they have terrific functionality and great audio quality in most office environments, and are very easy to set up and install. Everyone seems to really love them. The Cisco phones are nice as well, but IF you decide to go with Cisco, READ what you are buying and what you are getting before just blindly buying it (in fact, do this anyways, it's common sense to do this before buying any product, anywhere). Cisco products normally don't come with half of the items you need, and unfortunately most resellers (and Cisco) don't make this too easy to read and understand. DO NOT buy refurbished Cisco if you want support, especially since there has been some bogus Cisco voice equipment shipping lately from some of the certified Cisco resellers/distributors. Network World had an article on this recently: http://www.networkworld.com/news/2006/102306counterfeit.html Cisco may have a great look to their phones and have the design very well thought out (not to mention the big Cisco name - which is good enough for some), but they are normally harder to install and configure and are VERY proprietary. If you buy Cisco, Cisco wants you to ONLY buy Cisco (for support and marketing reasons). Snom 320's are a great choice just because these phones mainly support everything the Snom 360's support (i.e. sidecars) Only main differences between these two models is that the Snom 360 has the larger LCD screen as well as newly added XML support. We have about 50 stations here, some management, some support, some sales and have pretty much decided as a company to completely use Snom phones for all of our employees. Keep in mind, each phone out there will have their specific pro's and con's, as well as quarks ... seems there is no real "perfect phone" out there yet. But Snom in my mind, is pretty dang close.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk architecure
Guillaume, merci beaucoup - thanks a lot. The links were very useful, especially tech-inivite, the owner of the site did a great job. I got three books last night as well: Asterisk, Understanding SIP (Alan Johnston) and Practical VOIP Security. From the books and the website I can only understand that Asterisk comes in as a registrar/location server. In other contexts, such as a p2p environment, I assume that no proxies are used and no location server is required either. So my question is again, where does Asterisk fit in? I can perhaps see that in an incoming call screening scenario (as depicted here: http://www.tech-invite.com/Ti-sip-service-14.html) Asterisk acts as the announcement server. But in other cases, such as 'transfer unattended' or 'call forwarding - busy' (http://www.tech-invite.com/Ti-sip-service-8.html), there is no apparent need for Asterisk, is that correct? I would tremendously appreciate a little more detail on scenarios where Asterisk is required/used.

[asterisk-users] Static Realtime Select from Database
I did an ngrep trace of what Asterisk realtime static does when it queries the database. Here's what I saw SELECT category, var_name, var_val, cat_metric FROM rt_pbx1_sip_vw WHERE filename='sip.conf' and commented=0 ORDER BY filename, cat_metric desc, var_metric asc, category, var_name, var_val, id; Firstly, why does it order in DESCENDING order by cat_metric? Shouldn't it be ASCENDING order? The docs imply that you use cat_metric to specify the order that you want your contexts to appear. If Asterisk sorts in descending order, they will be reversed! Also, is cat_metric really required? For example, in the following set of data, rows for dundipbx1 are separated by rows for other contexts. Is Asterisk smart enough to know it has to combine this data into the one context? I realise that var_metric is useful in situations like deny/permit. +---++--++ | category | var_name | var_val | cat_metric | +---++--++ | dundipbx1 | context| syst_DUNDiPhoneMap | 0 | | dundipbx1 | deny | 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 | 0 | | dundipbx1 | secret | X| 0 | | dundipbx1 | type | user | 0 | | dundipbx1 | username | dundipbx1| 0 | | dundipbx2 | deny | 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 | 0 | | dundipbx2 | fromuser | dundipbx2| 0 | | dundipbx2 | host | pbx2.ipt.XXX.com | 0 | | dundipbx2 | secret | FBoAsFz3S8hFQ| 0 | | dundipbx2 | type | peer | 0 | | dundipbx2 | username | dundipbx2| 0 | | dundipbx3 | deny | 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 | 0 | | dundipbx3 | fromuser | dundipbx3| 0 | | dundipbx3 | host | pbx3.ipt.XXX.com | 0 | | dundipbx3 | permit | xxx.yyy.142.201 | 0 | | dundipbx3 | permit | xxx.yyy.142.203 | 0 | | dundipbx3 | permit | xxx.yyy.142.204 | 0 | | dundipbx3 | secret | X| 0 | | dundipbx3 | type | peer | 0 | | dundipbx3 | username | dundipbx3| 0 | | general | allowguest | no | 0 | | general | autodomain | no | 0 | | general | bindaddr | xxx.yyy.142.203 | 0 | | general | bindport | 5060 | 0 | | dundipbx1 | permit | xxx.yyy.142.204 | 0 | | dundipbx2 | permit | xxx.yyy.142.203 | 0 | | general | allow | ulaw | 0 | +---++--++ 81 rows in set (0.00 sec) ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

It's possible, but the FXO port on that device is more of a power out fail over to PSTN in my opinion. The FXO can be made to work, but it always had issues with my setup. 1) Echo problems.

The dial plan looked like this (where 2003 is the extension of the FXO). exten = _NXX,1,dial(SIP/@2003,60,D(ww${EXTEN})) This dials 7 digit number through the extension 2003. As far as incoming calls, you need to set the HT-488 up from it's config. screens and and it's a regular SIP extension in asterisk.

Re: AW: [asterisk-users] Snom or Cisco Phones?
I concur, We run about 50 7960's and they work quite well. Sound quality is pretty good. Like Aaron said, unless you're running call manager you can't program soft keys, etc. We're looking at going to a different phone that would give us some more customization options. Also.. Cisco's come with skinny firmware. You'd have to acquire the SIP firmware from somewhere. And NO cisco will NOT 'give' it to you If you need some, I have some for sale! :) :) That and Cisco won't give you the time of day if you don't use their stuff ;) We have about 1600 of the Cisco's on campus, and unless you run them on the call manager, you're not gonna have nearly as many features as any other phone that's designed with SIP in mind. That said, if you need a phone with dialtone, a pretty screen, and limited xml services, then I will say that the cisco's are extremely easy to provision once you figure out the upgrade paths. (Oh, and we're running 7940's and 7960's... if you're looking at the 7912's, etc, good luck, they're a _complete_ pain to work with) Aaron On Tue, 2006-10-31 at 20:41 +0100, Christian Stredicke wrote: I think one of the differences is: We do pay attention to Asterisk and this mailing list ;-) CS -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im Auftrag von Joao Pereira Gesendet: Dienstag, 31.

Re: [asterisk-users] echo with spa-3000
check the impedance for the fxo port. I bet it's set to 600. change it to 900 and see what happens James Harper wrote: More an echo algorithm question than a purely asterisk one... I have the following setup: Handset - PAP2 - Asterisk - SPA3000 - Telco And no matter what I do, I get echo on a call routed out via the PSTN when I talk into the handset, in the order of a hundred ms (my estimate, could be wildly inaccurate!). Echo will occur also when I have a handset plugged into the phone port on the SPA3000 (only when the call is routed via SIP of course), but I think it's more noticeable on the PAP2 due to the increased latency. The echo occurs even when I call an automated voice service or something, so I'm thinking that possibly there is a gross impedance mismatch on my side of the telco switch. I believe the following is happening (latency measures are guesses): Handset -(0ms)- PAP2 -(40ms)- Asterisk -(40ms)- SPA3000 -(0ms)- Telco Does an EC algorithm need a measurable delay to work? The EC would have to cope with an almost unmeasurably small echo delay (the delay only creeps in on the other side of the IP link.

[asterisk-users] Out Dial Interface for Asterisk
Hi All, I sent this a while back but never received any replies. My deadline is fast approaching so I thought I'd throw it out there again in hope of some advice. I need the ability to automatically out-dial and play a dynamically generated message. I then need the ability for the answering party to give feedback via touch tone. I am a .Net Programmer and I have looked at the Asterisk.NET examples, but all I see there is creating calls and sending them to system phones, etc. I don't see anyway of capturing responses back from the answering party, or how to play dynamically generated messages. Does anyone know if this is possible with the Asterisk.NET interface? Or does anyone know of another way to accomplish my needs? Any advice is greatly appreciated. --Shawn ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [asterisk-users] VOIP Bandwidth questions
This one will surely heat up. Usually the telcos have to calculate the subscribers vs telco capacity. I use simple figures, so extrapolate this to millions of customers, millions of lines, peak amount of calls at any given time of the day and of course houndreds,thousands of millions of dollars in equipment. For example: Telco A has 100 subscribers to his phone service in a city (home and business), so he needs to ask himself a- Will the telco buy a switch that can handle 100 calls simultaneously? So he can provide service to his subscribers 100% of the time at any time of the day even during riots,panic,flood,etc? b- Or will the telco go for a balance and guess that at the peak time of the day he will have 75 simultaneous call, so he goes out and buy a switch that handles 75-80 calls at the same time? c- how many trunks will the Telco have to talk to other telcos? So telco in City A can communicate with Telco in city B (or even in the same city)? International voice providers suffer from this kind of problem. Some sell plastic cards with a local phone number and a pin so you call them to call to other cities/countries but that cheap voice provider has, let's say, ten thousand long distance lines and ten thousand local phone numbers, but they sell 100k plastic cards a month with a peak usage 3 times every ten days of 12thousand lines? obviously 2 thousand callers wont get connected (only 3 times every ten days in a specific time range) but the other 7 days the peak usage is 10thousand calls? Every ten days the provider try to connect 106k calls but fail to connect 6k calls, that's 6% failure rate every ten days (100% in a 7 days period and 98% in those 3 days). Can you live with that failure ratio? that's up to you. I don't work for a Telco, but a Telco may apply the dialup-internet rule (and they live happy with it) for 30subscribers-to-1line home users and 10(or 5)subscribers-to-1line for business. (correct me if I'm wrong please it will be nice to know real figures). So apply the same rule to you VoIP hosting. -What codec will you use? let say g711 and let's say it uses 100kilobits per leg. -How many subscribers will you have in a 6 month period? 500 -So to provide all of them with service you will need 48Megabits of bandwith all the time just to connect to your Telco equipments. - But you decide that you analyzed the usage patterns of your service and you will have only 125 subscribers calling other 125 subscribers (this is called On-Net) at peak time every day at 6pm (rush hour). So, go out and buy 24mbits of bandwidth only. - But you suddenly have the option to hire burst IP service where your IP carrier can provide you with more bandwidth if your usage starts to rise in any given time of the day. So you calculate again that your minimum constant usage at any time of the day is 40 users On-Net, so go out and buy 5mbits (for a total of 50 calls) of bandwidth with burst IP enabled from 6pm to 8pm of 48mbits (or 24mbits). This scenario is only subscriberyour_companysubscriber. you also need to calculate subscriber--your_companyother_telcos And the last but most important question is: how much money do you have to burn on this? 100% Uptime full-service, Top Carrier Class performance (and even they get busy sometimes)? or almost perfect service with the once-in-awhile glitch of we're sorry all circuits are busy, please try again.

Re: [asterisk-users] Re: VOIP Bandwidth questions
I think vonage is using g723.1 which requires 6.4kbps voice bandwidth compared to g711 - 64kbps.For SIP to SIP calls, RTP doesn't necessarily goes thru the server. Only Signalling goes to the servers. This means no bandwidht usage for the provider. For SIP to PSTN calls, it has to goes thru a media gateway (owned by the provider) which may be seperate from the sip server.

have a look at the call files or AMI originate command. This allows you to generate a call, and specify an extension and context to go to when the call has been answered. In there, you can playback any file you want to the connected caller. Also, you can then use the IVR stuff of asterisk to do the touch tone stuff.
