Eric,

Before I posted, I ran tests with various recalc values between 10 and 
200. The results are pretty much the same, give and take 1ms on either side.


Forgot to add, I'm running 1.2.11 on both systems.

2006-12-23 Thread Vicky

I tried it on a intel 3 ghz p4 box and a athlon 3000 768 mb ram  running
vista and host for centos 4 ( vmware ) considering  the load on athlon
running asterisk ( that too under vista plus vmware ) while intel 3 ghz p4 1
GB ram box was sitting idle with centos , there was hardly a 1 ms difference
in show translation on both machines . Besides i just compared my p4's
results to ur D930 results and there is no difference ( infact my g729
results are better than ) .. But this doesnt mean both are same  dual core
cpu's will definitely give much higher number of channel transcoding then
lower p4's . Put both the box under some cpu load by other programs and then
use show translation recalc 30 and you will see performance difference
between them ;)

On 23/12/06, Matt Florell [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:


Hello,

We've released another update to our astGUIclient suite: 2.0.2

http://astguiclient.sf.net/

The client suite runs on most modern web browsers on almost any
GUI-capable operating system, and it includes the astGUIclient
client-side web app which extends your phone's functionality and the
VICIDIAL call center suite.
This package is free and GPL.
(the suite is not an asterisk configuration tool)
This package is geared towards Asterisk installations with SIP,IAX or
Zap phones and Zaptel, IAX or SIP trunks.

For this release, we have made many changes on the server side,
including changing logging from AGI to FastAGI which can cut system
load in half on busy VICIDIAL systems. We have also tested the suite
on Asterisk versions through
1.2.14(cannot use 1.2.11 or 1.2.12 because of Asterisk bugs)

All client web-apps and administration pages are available in English,
Spanish, Greek and German, with translations of French, Polish,
Italian, Portuguese and Brazillian Portuguese for the client web-apps
only.

Check out the project blog for more information:
http://astguiclient.blogspot.com

Let me know what you think.

Thanks,

Re: [asterisk-users] International dialplans for Asterisk?

 Wow what a mess! I can imagine how much easier it would be if the world

 number is in error.
 
 Doug

Having variable length offers several advantages, it just makes life
harder for telcos (and telco-lookalikes like us ;)

- Companies with several phones can have DDI, possibly multi-digit, but
(as convention) the -0 always is the central phone desk. So if you do
not know the number of the person, but just the company (which would be
listed in the yellow pages), you call the -0 and ask to be transferred.

For example if I need to speak to the University library, I just call
73-0 (local call), and they transfer to extensions 73-1234.

I prefer this a lot over the system it seems the US as well as UK use a
lot, where you always dial a fixed-length number, the call is connected
(from which moment on you are charged for the call--- this was really
expensive if international tariffs applied) and a recorded message asks
you to dial a four-digit extension or 0 for assistance. I like our
system better, as it allows for all those nice digital phone features
like Callback-on-Called-Party-ends-call (if the remote side was on a
call, so the busy indication works without additional charge),
Callback-After-First-Call-Of-Remote-Party (where, if nobody was
available, the network will notifiy after the other side got off-hooked
and on-hooked again), and whatever there is.

- And then, in small populated areas that got their own area code
nonetheless, they handed out short numbers. Nowadays with ISDN lines
(which give you three up to 10 numbers) being so popular, VoIP
geographic numbers taking their share etc, the number room became full
in those areas. So they just took free 3-digit codes and made 6-digit
blocks out of them. No problem with digital switches on the telco side.

Here in Bonn (area 228) policy was that every new landline gets one
(analogue line) or three (ISDN) 7-digit numbers, and if you apply for up
to 7 more numbers, which was free until 2005, you would get 8-digit
numbers. Lots of 6-digit numbers are still in use (handed out until the
late 90s), shorter numbers do not exist except for companies. How short
a number they have (plus DDI digits) depends on what they pay for it and
how many channels their trunk has. They will get 5-digit(+x) here for a
reasonable price, 4-digit will be rather expensive, and 2-/3-digit are
not available any more - those in use have been assigned in the 50ties
when the phone system was built. So the University, the DoD, the D.of
Foreign Affairs, the town hall, the police central station... caught
them, and bad luck for all the others.

Of course, Germany does not have something like area-split and similar
hassles - at least not for technical reasons. AFAIK there have been a
handful area code changes for political reasons during the last 50
years, and the eastern part of Germany got a completely new phone system
after the Iron Curtain fell - quite foresight to keep the 3x area codes
unused in the western phone system (except 30 which is Berlin - but that
in fact is eastern Germany as well, obviously).

I think the most recent area code changes were when the 0-800 numbers
came, because some area had the code 8001 or so. European standards and
their popularity in germany, ahem... :)

I would love to hear how others are using the results from show 
translation in system dimensioning. So far, I feel that dimensioning an 
Asterisk box is still mostly guesstimation :). Currently, I'm using the 
30MHz per call rule to dimension.


on a Pentium D 2.80Ghz, we've sustained 300 simultaneous IAX2 calls 
terminating in a dialplan loop that answers the call, waits 2 seconds, 
plays demo-instruct and loops again.


a cursory examination revealed that a large portion of the CPU was used to 
handle NIC interrupts. occasionally we got a chan_iax2.so error which said, 
 Maximum trunk data space exceeded to...


this seems to be controlled by the MAX_TRUNKDATA constant in chan_iax2.c 
which is set to 40ms of SLIN for 200 calls. it'd be nice to know what this 
constant is for and what would the implications of increasing it be.

Vicky,

The point of the exercise is that you should run 'show translation' with 
no load to get the baseline value. Your results confirmed my suspicion 
that the value is not tied to the number of CPUs - which indicates that 
the test was run on only 1 CPU. My concern is why the performance 
plateau. It makes no sense that a 3GHz CPU should take the same amount 
of time as a 1.3GHz CPU - that is unless there's something else is 
holding back the transcoder. It's like those graphics benchmarks - at 
some point, all the CPUs show the same FPS because the refresh rate is 
the one holding up the CPU.


At this point, I don't feel that 'show translation' is a useful 
indicator of actual transcoding performance. It's OK for relative 
comparisons but utterly useless if you need the figures for sizing 
purposes.

It's because 600 will match _XX.

Why don't you just use the 's' extension, instead of '_XX.'?

You have to join a conference using the dialplan. If you want the
Manager Client to be able to make an existing call join a conference,
set up an extension in the dialplan that does what you want, and
then use the Manager Redirect command to transfer the channel
to that extension.



Many thanks, do you know if it is possible to join a conference from
different channels with this method? (For example, 2 calls from SIP
and one from H323) ?

[asterisk-users] SNOM 200 behind NAT and other xmas woes

2006-12-23 Thread Brad Templeton

I decided to give the whole family IP phones for christmas,
all hooked into my asterisk server, so all the nephews can
have their own lines.

However, one of the phones I got was the SNOM 200.  That's worked
fine for me on my own network, but I'm having bad luck getting
it to work behind NAT talking to Asterisk.  It talks to my
termination/origination provider, which seems to ruthlessly ignore
SDPs and send audio to the address it gets audio from, which works
pretty well behind NAT.

I've tried all the various NAT settings on the SNOM 200 (with
the last firmware rev they made) but reports are that's broken.
The SDPs and Contact headers it sends out are always the natted
address, even if I tell it to use STUN or static or UPNP etc.
If the nat traversal is broken not much I can do on that end.

Asterisk, on the other hand, should be handling this with nat=yes
on the channel, but it's not.   It handles it for the SIP packets,
responding to those on the address the requests came from (ignoring
the contact header) but it seems to accept the SDP, which contains
and address Asterisk can't see.

The docs say nat=yes will fix addresses in SDPs.  I'm running svn
trunk from a few days ago.

Is there a way to get Asterisk to send audio to the address the
incoming audio comes from, or to take the SDP and replace the
IP address in it with the IP address the SIP came from?  Otherwise
while the phone will be able to make PSTN calls, it is unable to
call Asterisk for voicemail and the rest.

--

Some other issues:

Anybody tried to use vbuzzer with Asterisk with an IVR on the DID?
I find when I do this, after the IVR connext to an extension, the
reinvite Asterisk sends to vbuzzer is responded to by a very simplified
200 state response which Asterisk seems to get upset at.  Asterisk
immediately hangs up the channel, but nothing in the debug logs (even
level 9) seems to say why.   I will use another DID for now.

Also, I bought an SPA-2000 on ebay that claimed to be unlocked.  It
isn't.  I will probably get my money back but that's not going to help
at christmas.  Anybody know a way to unlock these things at the hardware
level (shorting pins etc.)  The factory reset codes all demand a PW, which
means it's locked.  Web access disabled too.  I have a Cisco ATA 186
but they only do NAT traversal with a static address, no STUN etc.

I may end up setting up the SNOM and replacing it if no other solution
shows up.

And sorry, another question...how can i automatically do a redirect

for example, my dialplan will be:

Well, I tried a bit more, including a numeric STUN server

So now I'm down to the DTMF not working (I've tried both
inband and rfc2833 and INFO settings but will try again.)

And other issue.  I have 5 line buttons set to 5 accounts.
Incoming calls to these accounts light the right line button,
and make the right ringtone.  However, pressing the line buttons
to make calls still results in all the calls coming from the
first line's identity in the From: header.   What's a good way
to get the source line to identify on the SNOM 200?

 Asterisk box is still mostly guesstimation :). Currently, I'm using the 
 30MHz per call rule to dimension.

There are some other factos. For instance, if you test relatively short
calls (as someone else in this thread did), then the call set-up and
tear-down overheads carry a larger wheight. It is also significant if
you have an expensive dialplan (e.g: running an AGI for every call).

Perhaps we could put together a list of analog phones that have this

but I have no knowledge of all that do in their entire line.
  


I would suggest you start a page on the Wiki and send the link to the list.

Just to give you another (relative)  comparison... This is from a VIA

This board runs very well with a TDM400P card in it.

On another Via processor, this time a C3 running at 1GHz with 128KB cache:

I'm finding these mini ATX boards with VIA processes to be generally very

to do an excessive amount of transcoding, but thats virtually non-existent 
in my applications. (Although I'm using G726 on some IAX trunks over 
office ADSL lines here in the UK. (outgoing b/w typically 256Kbps on older 
installations, just over 400 on ADSL-MAX installations. In theory we can 
have up to (just over) 800Kbps on the business-class -MAX installations,

[asterisk-users] Determining invalid extensions.

2006-12-23 Thread Phil Finkler
I used _XX. Since it was used in the examples I got from voicepulse.
Maybe I can modify it so it's standardized by using 's'.  Any idea why
they'd use something like that for incoming calls?  Are you sure 600
would match _XX.?  I thought _XX. Was just two digits.
 
Thanks for the help,

It's because 600 will match _XX.
 
Why don't you just use the 's' extension, instead of '_XX.'?

 I have 3 toll free did's with nufone since 1 month .. Until now i dont have
 a problem with them .. their portal was good enough to do proper
 configuration and call quality wasnt bad  ( even though i havent used them
 in really huge traffic  yet ) .
 
The reason for the warning is to get people to move before they start to
have problems.  I'm sure everything will work for a while (perhaps for
years), but when you have a problem - perhaps an sudden deterioration or
complete outage at NuFone itself, you'll find out just how difficult it
is to get a helpful, or even just polite, response from their support
department.

You might find that you have no service through no fault of your own,
and have no way to fix it yourself.  Usually a threat of fix it or I'll
take my business elsewhere tends to work, but if you do follow up on
that then NuFone will rob you of any outstanding call credit you have
in your account.

You'll find lots of examples of this if you search around.  I ignored
the warnings because the service was working at the time, and I didn't
think I'd ever need to contact their support department.  Don't make
the same mistake.

Here are a few references I found with a five-minute Google search.
There are lots more where these came from:


https://forum.voxilla.com/other-providers/nufone-severe-problem-service-9548.html
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Nufone
http://www.shakataganai.com/index.php?/archives/163-NuFone.html
http://hansgrueber.blogspot.com/2006/01/nufone-sucks.html

There are loads of examples in the various mail list archives.
Here are a couple:

http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-biz/2004-December/001468.html
http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-biz/2004-December/001457.html

As you have only had the DDIs for a month, you could get away with simply
going elsewhere and using new numbers (use up your call credit first).
If you have vanity numbers, or you want to keep them for some other reason
then I wish you good luck getting NuFone to help you port them to your
new provider.

The bottom line is that you are free to use whichever provider(s) you
like, but please be aware of the high likelyhood of having severe
service difficulties with NuFone.

Because the s extension is only matched when there is NO dialed number.

Extension i is designed for use within an IVR.

We use 4 digit extensions and use exten = _,1,Whatever to match

 works but I suspect you have to dial your own 7 digit or 10 digit
 number???
 
In the UK, you dial 1571.

[asterisk-users] The Good, Bad and Scam VoIP Providers

2006-12-23 Thread Al Bochter

Brian Capouch

I changed the subject I don't think it was right for this message!!

// Re: [asterisk-users] Need quality toll free 800 number over IAX?

Well I don't agree with you about this thread they are talking about the 
good and the bad VoIP providers

This is information that Asterisk users MUST KNOW.

We have to put the SCAMMERS like trxtel.com out of business (That don't 
pay there users)
The BAD VoIP providers must try to get there servers and customer 
service right or they need to go way.


Keep in mind list THE VOIP PROVIDERS and VOIP SUPPLIERS NEED US.
SO the providers and suppliers need to get there acts together.

The BAD and the SCAMMERS are giving VoIP a bad name and pushing OUR NEW 
PBX CUSTOMERS TO VONAGE.

Is this what the list wants  I DON'T THINK SO

Re: [asterisk-users] Help with SUSE 10.2 and Sangoma A104D

2006-12-23 Thread Josué Conti

Hello Tzafrir, all good?
It was really a strange and curious problem, but the fact is that I entered
in contact with the support technician of the Sangoma and Mr. Alex and Mr.
Yuan of the Sangoma, had passed me a new package of the Wanpipe (
wanpipe-2.3.4-2.1) that it compiled normally in SUSE 10.2;
I noticed that referring to /dev/zap, it only appears after the packages
of wanpipe to have been compiled successfully. Still I am with some problems
of synchronism with the A104D, but that now it is more easy of if resolv.
Tzafrir thank you will be this attention and would like to desire for you
and your family a happy Christmas and prosperous a 2007, full of peace, love
and much personal and professional success. :)

Best Regards

Josue

Hi

I'm not familiar enough with Sangoma. I do hope I can slightly help in
isolating the problem.

Here lies the problem. This is what you should debug.

 why udev's for board in
 /dev/zap(1-31, channel,ctl,pseudo,timer) is not created. But when I
 install a board TE110P Digium, udev's is created and asterisk functions
 perfectly. : )

As you see, there is an error building the drivers. Until that is fixed,
no point trying to use zaptel.


 This mine motherboard, has a NIC Gbps and if I leave qualified, the
A104D
 not recognized for motherboar, if I disable the NIC Gbps, through lspci,
I
 identify the A104D.

Not recognized == does not show up on lspci? that's a strange problem
indeed. I tend to believe that it is unrelated.

Re: [asterisk-users] The Good, Bad and Scam VoIP Providers

2006-12-23 Thread Steve Totaro
I seriously doubt trxtel.com scams anyone.  I may be wrong but the 
person behind it has been with this community for a long time and has 
done nothing post insightful and meaningful things to this list and give 
back to the community in many other ways as well.  It is a unique idea 
but that is really all I know about it (the service).


I fire customers all the time.  I would probably fire you if you were my 
customer based on the way you are ranting.  In these cases, the drain is 
not worth it personally or for the business so bye bye.


Bottom line, you get what you pay for.  Check out a provider, try their 
customer service, see if there is a toll free number, call it and see if 
someone picks up.  Try it over and over.  Use whois to see how long they 
have been around, ask questions, and use common sense.  It is called due 
diligence.


As for me, I use Asterisk in a very LARGE (although everything is 
relative) deployment but I use no VoIP providers.  I terminate to a T3 
(28 T1s), all PSTN ULAW. 

The only VoIP that we do is INSIDE ONE DATA RACK and is traditional 
telephony one form or another outside of that rack.


/This is information that Asterisk users MUST KNOW. /is simply not 
true.  Expand your horizons, expand your vision.  Do not automatically 
assume that everyone using Asterisk is using a VoIP provider.  Post to 
the biz list where this belongs.

Re: [asterisk-users] The Good, Bad and Scam VoIP Providers

2006-12-23 Thread Al Bochter

Tzafrir Cohen,

Well if you would have asked I don't aim to sell service to VoIP users.
I BUY VOIP TRUNK SERVICE from VoIP Providers.
I BUY VOIP DEVICES from suppliers
I install Asterisk PBX Servers and point the my customers to VoIP Providers and 
Suppliers

So the fact is I don't offer a competing service. I sell the services to the 
END USER.

Like a supplier said to me once.

 I will take care of a contractor before I return a call to an End User.
 The End user is only one sale and alot of time. The happy contractor's are 100's of 
sales

The other way to look at this is the contractor / installer is 100's of end 
users

So what I stated has everything to do with that.

If I point a client to a BAD VoIP provider or supplier that make me look bad.
And I could lose sales

So Trafrir what do you do? I looked at your site it look like you would be a 
VoIP SUPPLIER?
So you are a supplier competing for sales from myself and others on the list?

If you would make a note I changed the Subject line I started a new Topic.  So 
I am on-topic.

Bad service is a big deal so the tone should be VERY LOUD.

Steve Totaro,

I will contract you off the list about trxtel that is not my base point 
of this.


// Bottom line, you get what you pay for.
I agree.

// Check out a provider, try their customer service, see if there is a 
toll free number, call it and see if someone picks up.

You forgot word of others that used the server.

// Use whois to see how long they have been around, ask questions, and 
use common sense.  It is called due diligence.

Whois.org is not going to tell you much about them.

Ask questions? HM MM is that not what I am stating here?? And have 
others tell you how the provider was to them.
Sorry you trying to shoot me down on that point. 

/ / This is information that Asterisk users MUST KNOW. /is simply not 
true.
// Expand your horizons, expand your vision.  Do not automatically 
assume that everyone using Asterisk is using a VoIP provider.


So are you stating that if the provider (ANY POT or OTHERS) gave you bad 
service you would stay with them and not tell anyone.


// Post to the biz list where this belongs.
What am I trying to sell??? This is end user stuff

comparing zaptel.h from 1.0 and 1.2, one of the addition turns out to
be:

'show translations' mainly helps you compare different codecs. It is
also handy as a benchmark because it's there. However 
  
I agree with you that with 1 call, more CPU won't help. I'm just 
surprised that a 3GHz CPU is not much faster than a 1.3GHz CPU. I'm 
actually trying to find an analytical model to dimension an asterisk 
box. I need to transcode 120 channels of IAX (speex) into g711 to fed 
into 4xE1. My current guesstimation is a single Intel D930 should be up 
to the job. Without hard numbers, it's not very convincing. This is one 
aspect of asterisk that's annoying - you can't size a system reliably 
without resorting to lots of empirical testing. IMHO, this usually leads 
to over-engineering which drives up the cost.


Regards and happy holidays.

Re: [asterisk-users] sip help for newbie

2006-12-23 Thread Dovid B
You have to ask what they have open on the box on thier firewall. A good way to 
learn asterisk is to get a p3 and play at home.

  I'm not sure.  I'm a linux newb and this is just running on a server I have 
hosted somewhere.  I do have control of the box, just not sure what's open or 
how to  open them.

  Thanks for the info, I've gone through the tutorial and followed it and 
asterisk is running but I just can't seem to log in.  The xten phone just tells 
me connection timed out.  I'm simply running asterisk on a webserver that is 
also running apache and service content.  I simply pinged the box to get the ip 
to plug into the softphone.  Do I need to open a port or something?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] asterisk + door opener

Never got the financial backing for it. I looked in to mass producing it in 
China and I was in way over my head. I am currently working with an 
investor. I will let you guys know if anything comes up.

Hi Dovid,


I am actually now working on massproducing door
openers that will work with asterisk. It will have an
rj45 port and then a port to plug the door opener in
to. Please contact me off list if you are interested.


This is an old message, but I was wondering if you are still doing this,
and what the specs/cost are.

Thanks,

 Just to give you another (relative)  comparison... This is from a VIA
 processor running at 533MHz, (64KB Cache) asterisk compiled as i586 as
 it's missing some of the nicer MMX instructions:

Hey... why does your asterisk allow translation to and from ilbc?

And it won't translation ilbc to/from anything else. I had to buy some

RE: [asterisk-users] How accurate is show translation?

2006-12-23 Thread Paul Hales

When you built Asterisk, it must have refused to build the ilbc codec -
I have never seen an Asterisk box that could not transcode ilbc, in over
3 years of working with Asterisk.
