I think you hit the nail on the head with one word: community. Asterisk is free, community supported, and the voip-info site has been provided for free - with the support of the community. The site would appear to be financially supported by a small number of quite unobtrusive google ads, and therein lies the problem... Hosting isn't free. If you can't/won't pay for hosting, then you have to support it by advertising. I can sell you web space/servers/co-lo facilities with full disk/server/location redundancy, backups and so on, but would you be willing to pay for it? Probably not. So you takes your chances with a popular hosting company, put in a small number of google ads to pay for a basic hosting package and go with it. After-all, there are millions of websites hosted on millions of servers throughout the world - it's a highly competitive business - there are offers of hosting for £1 a month or even less, but do you think it's a sustainable model? I don't. Well, maybe it is when you have 1000s of clients with 10s of 1000s of websites (spread over 100s of servers!) but with scale comes more issues. I can't understand how 3 of 4 hard drives could just suddenly fail simultaneously. There must be more too it. No UPS? Someone spilled their coffee into it? Something! That does strike me as odd, but I've seen it myself with a bad batch of disks. (IBM DeathStar, Hitachi, etc.) You usually get warnings, but if you're employing monkeys paying them peanuts, then they usually just treat them as fire forget once installed in the rack and plumbed into their automated selling/billing system. Either way, it's amateur hour! It's the way 99% of all co-lo facilities work. Buy big, sell cheap with little or no SLA - hope that the hardware/premises/internet is reliable enough, employ monkeys, pay peanuts. If you want quality, then be prepared to pay for it, and £1 a month does not give you quality IMO, and in my experience as someone who runs a small co-lo facility, people will not pay for quality hosting. A quality server costs me £650, more if the client insists on a Dull. Sure, I can put together something with pair of disks for under £300, but I know (from experience!) it won't last the 4+ years I want it to last, nor deliver the preformance my clients (who are willing to pay for such a service) demand. I'm not blaming James here because that's the way it is! I bet he's spent 100s of hours (unpaid) setting it up, running it and maintaining it, and resorted to google ads. purely to fund it. I don't envy him at all. If I can't be confident enough in an important source of information like this then I can't be confident enough to provide an Asterisk solution to businesses. That's the way I see it. Yea, it's a wiki but it's the best source of info out there. So how much are you willing to pay to support such a service?

As you rightly say the disks in a RAID will have a good chance of failing at the same time because not only being out of the same batch but probably constructed one after the other. This normally will not be a problem for the manufacturer because they would be installed in different machines with different usage rates. If you really want to avoid this the discs would have to be selected out of different batches. It should never be forgotten that originally RAID stood for Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks, I never could understand how a RAID could be made up using SCSI disks seeing that they are certainly not inexpensive.

RE: [asterisk-users] DECT to SIP gateway experiences
Hi, I have a Siemens Gigaset DECT base connected to a Sipura SPA3000. The Message Waiting indicator on the handset works fine in this configuration. (I've used both the S100 and SL100 phones / bases, the operation is identical.) The illuminating Message button on the handset can also be configured to dial *97 so it's a single press if you have voicemail waiting. One 'gotcha' with the SPA3000 (and probably other similar devices) is that by default it internally recognises *nn codes and these all need clearing to allow Asterisk to handle everything. You also may need the latest V3 firmware (even on V2 hardware) especially if you want to use the FXO port as an asterisk trunk. I assume the other Sipura / Linksys devices will have similar features. I've got a SPA2100 dual FXS unit, but I've not got that in use at the moment. I think MWI worked on that but I can't be 100% sure. For the last week I've also been using a Nokia E65 as a WiFi/SIP handset. I'm still experimenting with the overall system setup, but so far this seems to work fine - one handset for both fixed line mobile calls.

I hope this isn't off-topic for the list. I am looking at an Asterisk setup that includes cordless phones. The three choices I can see, at this stage, are: * wifi phones * an ATA and a cordless analog phone * a DECT to SIP basestation The various wifi phone options don't grab us as suitable -- they are costly, have poor battery life and even the best have pretty mixed reviews. They just don't, at least in Australia, compare well to the non-wifi options. I know a lot of people have success with an ATA and a standard analog cordless phone. We figure that is the fallback, but: It seems to me that a direct SIP to DECT gateway could have significant advantages in terms of supporting the MWI (voicemail) indicator on the DECT phone directly -- there just isn't any way I could trigger it on any of the analog sets I have at the moment. Unfortunately I can't local any information on this; the documentation for the Zyxel DECT gateways and Siemens Gigaset DECT bases don't say *anything* about their supporting MWI hardware from a SIP server. The other killer feature that a DECT base could theoretically offer is some sort of soft menu system -- ADSI, XML, or whatever. That would make for extremely nice integration with the CallerID database in Asterisk, voicemail, etc. So, can anyone comment on support for MWI in the SIP DECT gateways? How about soft menu support?

Colo cooling failed and temps rose ten degrees, baking the drives a bit. Someone let slip with a cart and banged into the rack. Drives were spinning continuously for several years, and then power went out. Two of four don't spin back up. Anyone who's been in the industry for any length of time will have stories.

But that aside, there's been a substantive change in the configs for SIP phones, that could easily affect your device state monitoring. So, suggestion: read the example sip config file in the src/configs dir, pay close attention to stuff like call-limit, the limitonpeers stuff, etc, and then make sure you update all your phone entries in sip.conf. Restart asterisk, or reload sip, and hopefully your lights will work. In general, EVERYONE, here's some advise: When you upgrade from version 1.x to 1.(x+2), always review ALL your config files against the new config file examples. Things change!

Re: [asterisk-users] FW: Seamless Multi Office Asterisk Deployment
Brandon, What it sounds like you are looking at as far as having the phones register to the system and then have users login to a phone should be possible, I have not tried. I would suspect that you could build a dial plan menu to prompt the caller for their credentials and then take the phone's identification and add an entry to a database for that phone and the caller id, extension, voice mail box etc.. You could then use the realtime engine to query the table for the information when an extension is dialed. Doing the login through a sort of IVR would make it hardware independent. One note on the QOS, You might be right about it being okay with only 3 calls at a time, but I would offer this example. We us a MPLS network, in which most site have 384k and our main sites have 1.5mb. When I first placed a test call over the link using gsm from a 384 site to the main site, they had no issues, but I had terrible problems with audio being dropped or delayed and playing over top itself. I implemented QOS because the connection is not only for voice, so I could at least give priority to my audio and set aside bandwidth for it. On your time frame, it is hard to say, your users and existing hardware and training all factor into it. Having done asterisk systems before, I have deployed small sites, like 2-5 people in very short time frames, typically a few days building the system off site and testing then a week or less on site dealing with wiring, setup/testing and training. On a site of your size I would almost consider spending a couple weeks on site. You mentioned trixbox, I started with [EMAIL PROTECTED] myself and must say it was a great thrill to place a call between two softphones after a hour or so. But what I eventually realized was that if I had to troubleshoot the dialplan I was going to be lost in macros and AGI. I started out writing my configs and then using svn repositories for each site and copying in a base config for each new site. Worked great for a while and I knew the dialplan inside out. I'm now moving more and more to realtime and database storage for config files and dialplan sections which make managing multiple sites config files much easier. Also the use of Dundi in [EMAIL PROTECTED] was not through the GUI, and I understood it much better once I began using the files. The bottom line: in my experience [EMAIL PROTECTED]/Trixbox/freepbx are great ways to get your feet wet and are a proof of concept and even great for a basic system, but for what you are wanting to do and what I did. Asterisk is the only way to go. If your worried about not knowing enough, goto a bootcamp or some other training. If you want ease administration for several IT people, then you could look at some of the web interfaces that connect and edit the conf files.

Hench asking for assistance on the Asterisk mailing list ;) On the discussion at hand: At this time I am not going to worry about the QoS with my T1 network lines, I have been wondering what the quality will be like. I do not plan to have more than maybe three calls on a line at peak times. But I know that there will be more in the future. I am working with a total employee base of around 30, and the remote offices have two to four employees at a time, not a huge traffic demand. What I am most curious about at this time is the methods used to move from server to server. *Ideally* I would like to sit down at a phone, enter my extension/password and have that phone ring as my extension. Essentially, I would like a log in system on the phone. This presents me with two issues: I have to make my phones allow simple logon as a SIP device, and I need to get my credentials to move between Asterisk servers. What methods have others used, or where should I look for more information? At this point I have two Polycom phones (430 and 501) for testing, they seem to be talked about as very flexible. If they will not allow me to add a user friendly login prompt, maybe I need to find alternatives though. But this is the Asterisk list and I don't want to go too far off topic, so the main concern is how I would synchronize my information between asterisk servers. One final topic on this message I would like to cover is time frame. I am thinking maybe around 6 months to have at least a partial functioning system up and tested.

I think you hit the nail on the head with one word: community. Asterisk is free, community supported, and the voip-info site has been provided for free - with the support of the community. The site would appear to be financially supported by a small number of quite unobtrusive google ads, and therein lies the problem... Hosting isn't free. If you can't/won't pay for hosting, then you have to support it by advertising. I can sell you web space/servers/co-lo facilities with full disk/server/location redundancy, backups and so on, but would you be willing to pay for it? Probably not. So you takes your chances with a popular hosting company, put in a small number of google ads to pay for a basic hosting package and go with it. After-all, there are millions of websites hosted on millions of servers throughout the world - it's a highly competitive business - there are offers of hosting for £1 a month or even less, but do you think it's a sustainable model? I don't. Well, maybe it is when you have 1000s of clients with 10s of 1000s of websites (spread over 100s of servers!) but with scale comes more issues. I can't understand how 3 of 4 hard drives could just suddenly fail simultaneously. There must be more too it. No UPS? Someone spilled their coffee into it? Something! That does strike me as odd, but I've seen it myself with a bad batch of disks. (IBM DeathStar, Hitachi, etc.) You usually get warnings, but if you're employing monkeys paying them peanuts, then they usually just treat them as fire forget once installed in the rack and plumbed into their automated selling/billing system. Either way, it's amateur hour! It's the way 99% of all co-lo facilities work. Buy big, sell cheap with little or no SLA - hope that the hardware/premises/internet is reliable enough, employ monkeys, pay peanuts. If you want quality, then be prepared to pay for it, and £1 a month does not give you quality IMO, and in my experience as someone who runs a small co-lo facility, people will not pay for quality hosting. A quality server costs me £650, more if the client insists on a Dull. Sure, I can put together something with pair of disks for under £300, but I know (from experience!) it won't last the 4+ years I want it to last, nor deliver the preformance my clients (who are willing to pay for such a service) demand. I'm not blaming James here because that's the way it is! I bet he's spent 100s of hours (unpaid) setting it up, running it and maintaining it, and resorted to google ads. purely to fund it.

RE: [asterisk-users] voip-info.org status update
I completely agree with the cheap hosting commments - my company competes against it all the time. Things go bad with the host in one way or another, sites move, and the cycle repeats. Is that how someone reputable wants to run a business moving their site around every couple months when things break ? Or do people want a company that is reliable and actually strives to deliver a decent SLA ? As for the hosting of voip-info, I don't see anything wrong with the model of providing something useful for free but sprinkling a few ads through it to help pay for the costs. Yes its annoying when something you rely on is not available, but what right has anyone got to complain that is not paying to have it available ? Maybe a better situation would be to partner with at least one more person or group that has hosting capacity, and split revenue in some manner to offset the costs, and have it hosted at at least 2 locations to guard against disaster, but with a wiki its not all that simple since its updating all the time, and straight mirrors won't work. Something to look into, but it would take even more volunteer hours to setup. A service my company offers (I am not trying to plug myself, but simply offering an alternative to the way it is now) is called livebackup. Hosting is all setup for a mirror of the complete setup which is copied over at some interval. Should problems arise with the primary site that can't be fixed quickly, dns is simply changed to point to the backup site and it operates as if it was the primary. This is meant to cover these sorts of situations where a disaster is not quickly recoverable, but running two sites in parallel has other issues which make it too complicated for anything without a super high budget.

Re: [asterisk-users] Freepbx Incoming call's configuration
Hi Younss, You just need to setup Inbound Routes in FreePBX. The inbound routes allow you to route calls based upon caller ID or DID. Since you want to route based upon the number your caller dialed, you want to route based on DID. For your example: 1. Create a new inbound route. 2. In the DID field, enter the number you wish to route (555-4570). Keep in mind that this must match what your provider sends. Some providers send +1554570, some sent just 4570, and some send something in between. Check with your provider for their format. 3. At the bottom, select where you'd like that number to be routed to (I believe you need to select Core: Extension 202). Save the route, apply the settings (via clicking on the red bar), and that's it!

I've added the possibility to import queue_log information in a mysql database and to generate reports using this information. The software is in a beta state and provides this functionality: - users management - call generation (making a GET or POST request on a certain URL) - queue management (LOGIN / LOGOUT / QUEUE STATUS) - pickup a call from a queue even if the user isn't logged in the queue - outbound call in customizable context - queue stats import from queue_log - queue reports creation (using an open xml format) Please note, i think that the xml definition of a report is very important, if many people share each other their reports there is the possibility to build a reports-repository, so the final user can use many reports and, if the user know what he is doing, he can customize the reports.

You'll have to check the horse-wiki and pray it never goes down. Alternatively, you could get a Cisco horse. While it may cost more, at least you'll have a number you can call for tech support should your horse throw a shoe. The downside being, of course, if you want to modify your horse (e.g. - adding a rear spoiler, tinting its blinders, or adding a saddle with a piece of spinny plastic that makes it look like you're actually walking *backwards*) you'll have to use proprietary parts only purchasable from stables.cisco.com. :( Jay Rob Schall wrote: Of course you should buy a horse.

I also downloaded trixbox 2.0 with sangoma drivers included directly from sangoma (http:// wiki.sangoma.com/Trixbox-1xx).

One interface, 192.168.1.2 services clients outside the firewall who are led to believe that Asterisk is running at 64.168.237.110. The other interface, 192.168.0.200 services clients inside the firewall who are led to believe that Asterisk is running at 192.168.0.200. I am worried that Asterisk might not do what I am intending to do. What I want is for Asterisk to send SIP/SDP Connection Info as 64.168.237.110 to those clients that contact it on 192.168.1.2, and to send SIP/SDP Connection Info as 64.168.237.110 to those that contact it on 192.168.0.200. I am worried that it might use the last externip=... declaration for both interfaces and ignore the other one. Could somebody help me with determining the treatment of the multiple externip=... declarations? Or point me to how I could verify? I don't want to wait until the evening to find out from outside the firewall that this doesn't work. (It is working fine from within the firewall where I contact asterisk at 192.168.0.200) Thank you!

Re: [asterisk-users] A200 card problem
Sangoma gives excellent support Suggest you try there first They probably will want SSH access to the box.

Below are some log files/config files. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate it. I used Trixbox 2.0 and followed instructions on (http://sangoma.editme.com/wanpipe-linux-asterisk-atHome) - no problems running through or compiling. I also downloaded trixbox 2.0 with sangoma drivers included directly from sangoma (http://wiki.sangoma.com/Trixbox-1xx). I know how this list feels about trixbox, but still, the card/configs are the same, no?

You don't have to put the phone on the hook and parking, you don't have to worry about answering or fumbling around and hanging up on the callback, or anything. If you have the handset in your hands, it calls back, plays the number in your ear and it's done. If you're on speakerphone, it calls back and plays the number and it's done. Almost as good as parking using chan_sccp with the Cisco (it also displays the parking spot on the park... hmmm... that could possibly be done...). On my phones, when I press park, I have to press a number (any number works) and then press park again. Is this the case for everyone else, or am I missing something?

[asterisk-users] Re: sip_nat.conf - Asterisk with two Ethernet Interfaces
I figured it out by examining the log files. The following works but not as hypothesized above. 1. the second externip overrides the first, so externip can only be specified once 2. the first localnet and the second localnet are BOTH understood and used. 3. asterisk tests the destination IP against BOTH localnet specifications, and if the destination IP does NOT match, THEN it substitutes its SOURCE IP with externip. 4. if the source IP is not substituted then the correct local source IP is used depending upon which interface the request came from. so, all's good, at least for my scenario. quote who=Anjul Srivastava Will this do the intended thing? This is in sip_nat.conf which is included in sip.conf: externip=192.168.0.200 localnet=192.168.0.200/255.255.255.0 externip=64.168.237.110 localnet=192.168.1.2/255.255.255.0 I have Asterisk running on a box with two Ethernet interfaces and bound to both. One interface, 192.168.1.2 services clients outside the firewall who are led to believe that Asterisk is running at 64.168.237.110. The other interface, 192.168.0.200 services clients inside the firewall who are led to believe that Asterisk is running at 192.168.0.200. I am worried that Asterisk might not do what I am intending to do. What I want is for Asterisk to send SIP/SDP Connection Info as 64.168.237.110 to those clients that contact it on 192.168.1.2, and to send SIP/SDP Connection Info as 64.168.237.110 to those that contact it on 192.168.0.200. I am worried that it might use the last externip=... declaration for both interfaces and ignore the other one. Could somebody help me with determining the treatment of the multiple externip=... declarations? Or point me to how I could verify? I don't want to wait until the evening to find out from outside the firewall that this doesn't work. (It is working fine from within the firewall where I contact asterisk at 192.168.0.200) Thank you!

[asterisk-users] Help! Echo problem even at T1 PRI?
Hello, We have an asterisk setup at our client's site using a TE205P. The line to telco is a 23 channels T1 PRI, however the line has random echo problems (about 5-10% of the calls)! Can anybody tell me if echo cancellation is really needed even at a T1 PRI to the telco? Because people keep saying when they deploy voip solution in Hong Kong using T1 PRI, there is no need of echo cancellation. (even the local Digium distributor) Asterisk is 1.2.13, zaptel is 1.2.10. I choosed the MARK2 canceller in the zaptel. The setting in zaptel is default: echocancel=yes echocancelwhenbridged=yes echotraining=yes rxgain=0 txgain=0 When I tried to adjust the echocancel value to a higher taps (e.g. 256) or adjust the rxgain/txgain value, I can even hear echo much easier. Anyone can confirm with me we should rather turn echocancelwhenbridged=no, or even echocancel=no when we only use a T1 PRI at the zaptel? Or can have other suggestions to try solving this problem? Because of some people's information that T1 PRI does not need any echo cancellation, add a hardware echo cancellation module is not an option here. I think I need some sort of information from another 3rd party before my boss will even agree to just try something out. Really thank you!!

It is drifting off topic, but if all the drives in the array where bought from the same batch, and it was a bad batch, they could all fail at about the same time. I've seen it happen in non-raid drives, I had a batch of drives all bought at the same time, that all went bad within about a week of each other. Each was in a different PC so they had slightly different up times and usage. I could see if those drives had been in a RAID array and were being stressed equally, they may have all failed within hours or even minutes of each other. -chris www.mythtech.net ___ --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 ___ --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
