Re: [asterisk-users] Verizon-Vonage Lawsuit

Stepping back into reality for a moment, emotions aside, I side with
the law if Vonage infringed on VZ's patent. Don't misconstrue what
I typed, re-read it clearly. If you created something, patented it,
and someone else used it without permission or compensation, if you
can honestly tell this list you would sit back while said person or
company made millions and do nothing, you would be lying to youself.

Other companies in the industry used VZ's patents under licensing
without incident so why couldn't Vonage. This isn't David versus
Goliath here in fact Vonage tried to get things in order with
Verizon AFTER the fact. So kudos to the judge in this case.

Personally I don't like Verizon, and I'm glad I deal with them
on a minimal level nowdays. However, the law is the law.
  


This sounds like you really don't know what these legal proceedings are 
about.  I googled this a little a week or two ago, when it appeared on 
engadget of all places.  It appears that VZ sued Vonage for infringement 
of seven patents, including three for billing methods.  IIRC, the 
billing issues were thrown out in a first round, I assume, because it's 
one of those how else you're gonna bill customers? deals.


The one bit that did keep coming up in all my reading was that VZ 
apparently patented some sort of mechanism to interconnect a packet 
network (VOIP) to a circuit switched network (PSTN).  They seemed to 
attempt to gain an injunction barring Vonage from using this technology 
or method, essentially cutting off Vonage's customers from the PSTN, and 
rendering Vonage service useless.


Judging by how surprisingly little information was available on this, 
the conclusion would be that Verizon owns some patent for the VOIP/PSTN 
interface -- that, in turn, would mean that all digital PBX systems 
currently in operation infringe on this patent in some manner.  (Again, 
this is interpolated from the small amount of information I found when 
searching two weeks ago).


If Verizon's patent claim is indeed so broad as to prevent Vonage's PSTN 
interconnect, then Verizon would still have to show that the patent is 
non-obvious and a truly new invention (this may be difficult, because 
packet-based and circuit switched networks have been around for longer 
than Verizon has, and there is an obvious way of connecting those two); 
Verizon would also have to show that they had sufficient interest to 
develop the patent (similar to the Cisco/Apple controversy over the 
iPhone trademark).  That latter part is hindered by the fact that 
Verizon didn't start going after Vonage until they had allegedly lost 
over a million customers to Vonage -- it appears a reciprocal action to 
protect VZ's business interests and not their IP.


That last point could be quite a big one against VZ -- Vonage is gaining 
customers not because they stole Verizon's doubtful IP, but because they 
offer a better deal.  In my area, Vonage is cheaper than a Verizon 
dialtone alone -- and I'd still pay for each outgoing call if I had 
Verizon. 

That said, this is going to be interesting to watch for all us asterisk 
users.  If Vonage loses this one, VZ is going to go after the next VOIP 
provider... and sooner or later, anti-trust regulation will kick in.


Fun world.

[asterisk-users] Wireless Bridge for SNOM360

2007-04-07 Thread --[ UxBoD ]--
Due to our house layout I am unable to run some CAT5 cable from one
room to another. Therefore I purchased a Belkin wireless ethernet
bridge, but to my amazement it does not work :( Though, if I plug the
adapter into a PC ethernet port it works a treat. Connects to the AP
with a strong signal. I unplug it from the PC, and plug it back into
the SNOM and the wireless connection is dropped. Any ideas ?

Just an idea... have you checked CALLERID(num) versus CALLERID(name)?
Try a NOOP statement to see what those contain right before jumping into
voicemail; if only one contains the proper info, that might cause the
unknown caller.

[asterisk-users] Different devices for asterisk!!!

2007-04-07 Thread Rizwan Hisham

Hi all,
Im trying dial a user according to the device s/he uses. i mean if the user
is using asterisk as a peer, then i have to pass the extension in the dial
application like this:
Dial(SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED]) ;so that s/he can perform routing according to the
DNID.

and if the user is using sipura, linksys or grandstream i dial the user like
this,
Dial(SIP/user)

so is there a way to know what kind of device user has used to register with
my asterisk server?

Thanx in advance

hi lee.
I see your problem with trunk iax, probably i don't have the solution but
i
don't knew if you can help me to solve mine.

Can't seem to see what the problem you have?  Errors?  Incorrect result?
(What is expected and what is the result?)  Also, you need to clarify the
settings on two servers more clearly - your sip-calls context seems to
suggest that server B uses IAX with its users, but uses SIP to connect to
server A?  The iax.conf seems to suggest SIP rather than IAX.

Re: [asterisk-users] Different devices for asterisk!!!

2007-04-07 Thread Bruce Reeves

If your device is connecting to asterisk as a peer or a friend, the the sip
show peers user will show a user agent field. For example I have a
linksys phone in my home office that connects as a friend and so if I type
sip show peer 1000 - the phones username. I get the following entry
Useragent: Linksys/SPA942-5.1.5 Which tells me brand, model and
firmware. This field stores the user agent string sent by the device, so
each manufacture and even device may give different information. Here is
another just to show some of the detail.  Useragent: Aastra 480i
Cordless/1.3.0.1080 Brcm Callctrl/1.5 MxSF/v3.2.6.26

The second one must have given some output. If the first one gives no

Any suggestions from those who know?


Our SDK isn't open source, but it is an IAX applet -
javascript/DHTML
friendly and lightweight.


Is that applet available unbundled from the rest of your software and

Yes, it is available separately and the price is  per-server.
Anyone interested should contact me off-list as this is getting
dangerously commercial!

2007-04-07 Thread J. Oquendo

On Sat, 07 Apr 2007, Jay Milk wrote:

(my comments inline)

 This sounds like you really don't know what these legal proceedings are
 about.  I googled this a little a week or two ago, when it appeared on
 engadget of all places.  It appears that VZ sued Vonage for infringement
 of seven patents, including three for billing methods.  IIRC, the
 billing issues were thrown out in a first round, I assume, because it's
 one of those how else you're gonna bill customers? deals.

The jury found that three of five disputed patents were infringed and
all are valid, while rejecting Verizon's claim that the infringement was
willful. The patents cover a method of translating calls between the
Internet and standard phones, call-waiting features and wireless handsets.

http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087sid=aj9gCo9Pr58grefer=home

No one is mentioning which of the three are the main cause for the
rulings so you're ASSuming its largely based on on the interconnection
of PSTN's. Take that out of the mix for a moment, and you still have
two violations so your argument makes little sense.

 The one bit that did keep coming up in all my reading was that VZ
 apparently patented some sort of mechanism to interconnect a packet
 network (VOIP) to a circuit switched network (PSTN).  They seemed to
 attempt to gain an injunction barring Vonage from using this technology
 or method, essentially cutting off Vonage's customers from the PSTN, and
 rendering Vonage service useless.

This one bit that keeps coming up is obviously under the microscope
from every VoIP company in existence including my employer, our vendors
and anyone with some ties to VoIP no matter how great or how small.
Take this out of the focus for a moment, and you STILL have two other
violations.

 Judging by how surprisingly little information was available on this,
 the conclusion would be that Verizon owns some patent for the VOIP/PSTN
 interface -- that, in turn, would mean that all digital PBX systems
 currently in operation infringe on this patent in some manner.  (Again,
 this is interpolated from the small amount of information I found when
 searching two weeks ago).

Should I reiterate the need to take this one infringement out of the
mix and focus on the other two?

 If Verizon's patent claim is indeed so broad as to prevent Vonage's PSTN
 interconnect, then Verizon would still have to show that the patent is
 non-obvious and a truly new invention (this may be difficult, because
 packet-based and circuit switched networks have been around for longer
 than Verizon has, and there is an obvious way of connecting those two);
 Verizon would also have to show that they had sufficient interest to
 develop the patent (similar to the Cisco/Apple controversy over the
 iPhone trademark).  That latter part is hindered by the fact that
 Verizon didn't start going after Vonage until they had allegedly lost
 over a million customers to Vonage -- it appears a reciprocal action to
 protect VZ's business interests and not their IP.

Non-obvious? You say tomaytoe I say tomahtoe. A patent is a patent is a
patent. Blame the government and legal shmoes for their bastardization
of words, intents and ambiguities when dealing with these matters. No
matter how you want to cut this though, there are 3 infringements and
this is what I look at. 

 That last point could be quite a big one against VZ -- Vonage is gaining
 customers not because they stole Verizon's doubtful IP, but because they
 offer a better deal.  In my area, Vonage is cheaper than a Verizon
 dialtone alone -- and I'd still pay for each outgoing call if I had
 Verizon.

Its obvious VZ went after Vonage due to Vonage slowly taking away VZ's
customer base, but what are you going to do, VZ holds the cards no
matter how much you dislike it, no matter how much you want to play
the butchery game on patents, intents, and what your notion of what
is going on is.

 That said, this is going to be interesting to watch for all us asterisk
 users.  If Vonage loses this one, VZ is going to go after the next VOIP
 provider... and sooner or later, anti-trust regulation will kick in.

As stated previously, I think anyone and everyone in the world of VoIP
is watching. As for your dire apocalyptic prediction of anti-trust
regulation, too many players would bury VZ. Cisco, ATT, 3Com, I
could name hundreds that own patents that would play the same game
of Patent Ambiguities to render any arguments as worthless should
a case go to court on VZ's merits. Strangely and for no other reason
than to understand the context of it all, I will dig up the court
transcripts (since its all public information) to see what patent
numbers were infringed and try to understand it for my own sake.
But to summarize, one's own interpretations of these events are
that and that alone: One's own interpretation. You say: But
everyone interconnects to the PSTN with FXS/FXO, foo bar foo.

Quite possibly, the registration program for that codec will bind to
eth0 and use it as the host ID, if you change ethernetcards or re-number
interfaces you will need to re-register the codec. 

As for the re-ordering of your network cards I would suggest you look
into running udev with some rules to keep the order of the cards
consistent over reboots.

[asterisk-users] Verizon Vonage 101

2007-04-07 Thread J. Oquendo
I've dug down as far as I could on www.uspto.gov for
anything remotely close to what is going on with
Verizon and all searches end with only two
possibilities in regards to what is going on.

So unless the patent was issued to someone else and
Verizon bought it, these are the only two possible
patents this case could be based on...

US 7,142,646 B2 
Voice mail integration with instant messenger

US 7,054,308 B1 
Method and apparatus for estimating the call grade
of service and offered traffic for voice over
internet protocol calls at a PSTN-IP network gateway

According to Google:

They've listed 118 patents assigned to Verizon
Results 1 - 10 of about 118 from uspto.gov for +assigned to +verizon

One dealing with PSTN
Results 1 - 1 of 1 from uspto.gov for +assigned to +verizon +pstn

Two matches dealing with VoIP but only one is a
patent. And that is related to the above search
Results 1 - 2 of 2 from uspto.gov for +assigned to +verizon voip

Three matches dealing with Voice and IP but only
one is a patent. And that too is related to the
above search
Results 1 - 3 of 3 from uspto.gov for +assigned to +verizon voice IP

Nine matches dealing with telephone and IP but
only one is a patent. And that too is related
to the above search
Results 1 - 9 of 9 from uspto.gov for +assigned to +verizon telephone IP.

One patent related to voicemail
Results 1 - 1 of 1 from uspto.gov for +assigned to +verizon voicemail


My thoughts, the voicemail one is broad, and
could be circumvented easily. If I were a juror,
I would laugh but an infringment is an infringement
is an infringement. I would make Vonage stop using
the technology.

The VoIP patent however is a bit more detailed,
and although it can be construed as broad, that
too would make me side with Verizon, but not to
the degree of shutting down Vonage.

On the flip side of things, Vonage is no stranger
to infringing on patents.

Of course, turnabout is fair play, and Klausner
Technologies Inc. filed suit against Vonage for
infringing its patent number 5,572,576, which
concerns the retrieval of VoIP voicemail on a

RE: [asterisk-users] Verizon Vonage 101

2007-04-07 Thread Salvatore Giudice
They could be suing for patents completely unrelated to VoIP as a
technology. There are cases on the book where people like Katz have been
running around suing contact center operators because he has a patent on
authenticating yourself to a phone service using a pin number and using
that information to access account records. Contact center operators get
hit by that crap all the time and Katz is a master of letting them operate
for years before he comes banging on their door looking for a check.

With VoIP, the news is always talking about subscriber numbers and industry
growth projection. This is like putting blood in the water. It was only a
matter of time until the guys like Verizon, Katz, etc start pulling their
polished patent infringement weapons out on the naive VoIP operators.

This is just how business is done in America.

You want to see a whacked out patent? Take a look at Katz's patent on
Methods and apparatus for intelligent selection of goods and services in
telephonic and Electronic Commerce. This guy has patents on paying by phone
or web for products using a credit card. There are 267 different methods
this clown has patented and he actively sues companies for using these
methods in common business channels.

http://www.google.com/patents?vid=USPAT6055513id=VGQEEBAJ

At my former employer, when VoIP was starting to get hot - they had me apply
for a patent on IP contact center technologies which took a lot of what Katz
had produced and expanded it to VoIP. We did this for purely defensive
disclosure purposes, but there are clowns out there who do this to generate
revenue.

 I don't know how to make it into a correct patchfile, so if someone else

 Simply use 'diff -u' instead of 'diff' .

 Any idea if this can break anything?

[asterisk-users] Cannot compile 1.4.2 on Slackware 7

2007-04-07 Thread Jonathan Hunter

Hi All,

I am trying to upgrade an old Asterisk installation to 1.4.2 (it's
currently running CVS-08/02/04-15:15:26) but have hit a couple of
problems.

The first was easily fixed. I got storage size of sin isn't known
errors whilst compiling streamplayer.c, but after seeing
http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=4908#32012
I manually added #include netinet/in.h to the top of
streamplayer.c and this compiled OK. (Should I file a bug for this?)

However I'm currently stuck here:

/usr/src/asterisk-1.4.2# make
  [LD] aelparse.o aelbison.o pbx_ael.o ael_main.o ast_expr2f.o
ast_expr2.o strcompat.o - aelparse
aelparse.o: In function `ael_yylex':
/usr/src/asterisk-1.4.2/include/asterisk/strings.h:167: undefined
reference to `__builtin_expect'
ast_expr2f.o: In function `ast_expr':
/usr/src/asterisk-1.4.2/include/asterisk/strings.h:167: undefined
reference to `__builtin_expect'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [aelparse] Error 1
make: *** [utils] Error 2

I don't know enough about the internals of Asterisk to know what I
should be looking for - is the configure script perhaps not checking
for a required library?

The machine is quite old, so it is possible I need to upgrade/add
something - but what?

# uname -a
Linux myserver 2.4.25 #5 Wed Jan 26 18:20:35 GMT 2005 i686 unknown
# cat /etc/slackware-version
7.0.0

If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it!

Cheers,

Jonathan

[asterisk-users] Follow Me and Transferring Calls

2007-04-07 Thread Andy Gee
When my follow me or transferred calls come out to me they appear as if they
are coming from one of my lines rather than showing the caller id of the
initial caller.  I believe there is a way to make it forward the initial
caller id information isn't there?  Is it just that my voip provider is not
allowing me to do this and if so does anyone have any suggestions on some
voip providers that will let me provide the caller id info?

 

Thanks,

I haven't compiled any Asterisk version on this machine since 2004, so
you could well be right on that front.

# gcc --version
2.95.3

Is __builtin_expect part of gcc, then, rather than an external
library? (i.e. would I need to upgrade gcc in this instance)

Thank you!

Re: [asterisk-users] make Zaptel 1.2.16 'struct inode' has no member named 'u'.

2007-04-07 Thread kjcsb
 Zaptel has no direct code relationship with Asterisk. Your error is
 because zaptel is trying to use a member no longer exists in newer
 kernels. However you are using fedora, and fedora included that change
 in older kernel. I found this in xpp/xbus-core.c
 
 /*
 * As part of the inode diet the private data member of struct inode
 * has changed in 2.6.19. However, Fedore Core 6 adopted this change
 * a bit earlier (2.6.18). If you use such a kernel, Change the
 * following test from 2,6,19 to 2,6,18.
 */
 #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE  KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,19)
 #define I_PRIVATE(inode)((inode)-u.generic_ip)
 #else
 #define I_PRIVATE(inode)((inode)-i_private)
 #endif
 
The following resolved this issue:
vi xpp/xbus-core.c
Change code as follows:
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE  KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,18)

Slackware 7!  Upgrade to something from this century!  Seriously, 7.0 is 
so old that you should not be using it.  It's not supported with 
security updates and uses older versions of glibc (which may be part of 
your problem).

If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it!
Slackware 11.0 was recently released.  Move to that.  There isn't 
anything special that would make it run less fast than 7.0 does on your 
hardware.  You'll also have the option of installing a 2.6x kernel which 
will bring you to the 21 century.


I used slackware back to version 3.0.  It's a very clean distro.

If this is a dedicated Asterisk box, consider looking at Astlinux.  We 
will be releasing 0.4.5 in the next week or so with some major 
upgrades/improvements.  For now, you can grab the release candidate 
images from here:  http://www.djhsolutions.com/astlinux

 zaptel 1.2.16 would simply hang.  I am using the 1.4 fxotune now with

It should be lower still -- under 5%.

Do you have other analog extensions hanging off the line between the
demarcation and the Asterisk server?

Do you have loose wires hanging off the line between the demarcation and
the Asterisk server?

How clean are the terminations?

You can go a long way by cleaning up a substandard wiring job.

 That last point could be quite a big one against VZ -- Vonage is gaining
 customers not because they stole Verizon's doubtful IP, but because they

 That said, this is going to be interesting to watch for all us asterisk

 provider... and sooner or later, anti-trust regulation will kick in.

You hope.

The last twenty years in the United States has seen a steady erosion in
anti-trust legislation.

As for Vonage, the honeymoon is over in these parts. I know a few
enthusiastic early adopters who are fed up with the poor call quality;
one out of three times they call me I hear totally unintelligible
buzzing or warbling. They're switching back to analog lines now.

[asterisk-users] Prompt for a PIN number to make long distance call?

2007-04-07 Thread J French

I need to authenticate users to make long distance calls.  Basically,when
the user dials a long distance dialplan pattern, I want to prompt for his
pin and look it up against a table of pins:usernames in a file.  If it
exists, I'll use the username in the cdr accountcode and permit the call.
Authenticate() looked very promising nut I couldn't get the ma options to
work.  Any help is appreciated.  Honestly, I'm not even sure how to read an
external file and parse it from asterisk.

You hope.

The last twenty years in the United States has seen a steady erosion in
anti-trust legislation.

As for Vonage, the honeymoon is over in these parts. I know a few
enthusiastic early adopters who are fed up with the poor call quality;
one out of three times they call me I hear totally unintelligible
buzzing or warbling. They're switching back to analog lines now.

From my experience with Vonage, the problem is the PSTN interface in 
certain locations
Vonage to Vonage is quite good, not quite as good as Asterisk to 
Asterisk, but certainly quite acceptable.

Where it falls down is in certain locations back to the PSTN
This seems true also with others, such as Stanaphone and sipphone as well
We also have a pretty good ISP with Commiecast

[asterisk-users] Vonage fraud controls

2007-04-07 Thread Salvatore Giudice
Has anyone tried pushing calls to a Vonage ATA attached to an FXO card in
Asterisk and had your account terminated by Vonage?

I'm curious as to whether they will stop your service if you push too many
calls through their ATA in a specific period of time.

Thanks in advance for the info, SG

 What does zttest say about your zap card configuration/installation?
 If
 it's not always 99.98% or better then it's due to hardware resource
 constriction and you need to escalate the zaptel card's priority on the
 hardware (like putting it at a lower IRQ).

[asterisk-users] Linux IAX client to zaptel voice quality issue

2007-04-07 Thread Carlos G Mendioroz
Hi,
I've had a hard time understanding what was going on in a new * setup.

The deployment has a * box running on dual xeon RH9 stock 2.4.20-8
and some different versions of asterisk (1.2.10/1.2.16) + libpri +
zaptel + wanpipe.

Short version: audio from iaxclient clients is fine from windows
but poor from linux when going to zaptel.
E.g. Iaxcomm running on windows works fine, but the same version
of it running on linux has poor quality when going IAX-Zap-PRI
(sounds like samples are being dropped ~4 times/second).
Return audio is clear.
This happens no matter what version of linux we tried.
Finally a way of dealing with it was setting jitterbuffers in
zapata.conf up to 10 from default 4.
All audio is fine if zaptel is not used (i.e. iax to iax or iax to sip
calls sound great).

I don't really understand what the issue is, but one possibility
is that somehow iaxclient is not being able to set correct timestamps
in linux, and that in turn triggers some kind of correction in
zaptel.

FTR, clients are using DSP-400 headsets (although problem can be
reproduced with other sound devices) and the problem also happens
with analog TDM zaptel interfaces.

Keywords: linux client iax zaptel voice audio quality

If I were Vonage I'd have a delegation in HongKong now, moving all my 
Telco interconnects
to somewhere where the US patent system is treated with the contempt it 
is starting to earn.




ROTFL. The US patent system is treated with contempt in Hong Kong? You 
have no idea how EXTREME legislation in Hong Kong against IP 'theft' is 
in Hong Kong.


In any case, even if you can do things with penalty in Hong Kong against 
 the stupid patents that are regularly being accepted by the USPTO, why 
would Hong Kong be a good choice? Bandwidth costs more than they do in 
the US and I doubt Vonage had their own trans pacific fibre to stick 
their telco connects here without having to pay reach or whoever loads 
of cash for their HK-US links.

Re: [asterisk-users] How to return dialstatus of second (sub) call

 Hello all
 
 I have this problem, i need a way to balance my trunks which are SIP
 peers, when a SIP peer is busy then send the call for another peer and
 so until i can send away the call, i think i can do it with queues.
 
 Ok this is the scenario:
 
 In extensions.conf
 
 [balance]
 exten = _,1,NoOp(Call to: ${EXTEN})
 exten = _,2,Answer()
 exten = _,3,SetVar(_ORGEXTEN=${EXTEN})
 exten = _,4,SetVar(_ORGUNIQUEID=${UNIQUEID})
 exten = _,5,Set(CDR(userfield)=${ORGUNIQUEID})
 exten = _,6,Queue(qtest,r)
 exten = _,7,Hangup()
 
 I have a queue with 100 members which are local channels
 
 In queues.conf
 
 [qtest]
 strategy=random
 member=Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 member=Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 member=Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I had a similar problem of returning state to the queue manager to check the 
call state.

You might want to try something like:

exten = check,1,ChanIsAvail(Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED],js);
exten = check,102,Goto(busy,1);
exten = busy,1,Busy();

Obviously you could replace this with a macro/DB lookup to avoid having lots
of repeated entries in the dial plan.

Busy() should return busy to the queue application if the Local 
channel is in use, causing it to skip to the next entry in the queue.

After having a nightmare with chan_agent not working properly, I implemented 
a modified (for 1.2.x) version of:

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Agents+without+agent+channel

and stopped using AgentCallBackLogin(), which digium it appears have 
deprecated anyway in 1.4.x

Agents without agent channel is a bit of a hack, but it works better than 
chan_agent in my case.

This caused various other problems, notably that hints do not seem to work 
with Local/ channels, it shows them as always available. I have not found 
a workaround to this as yet. Any attempts I have made to dynamically update 
hints in the dialplan from asterisk CLI (add extension .)  seems to 
cause it to core dump in my case. Other than that, it works quite well.

If you want a specific CID to show up it seems that your only options are to
A) Write an AGI.
B) If you don't have many users that can dial international you can use a

2007-04-07 Thread Yossi Ben Hagai

You can set up a simple mysql table with PIN-users this makes it more
extensible and you can create a simple web interface to change to pins/add
users.
after you have set up the table just use a simple IVR construct to prompt
for the PIN, fetch it from the table and authenticate it - something like
this (wrote it on my notepad so check the syntax):
exten = _,1,Noop
exten = _,2,MYSQL(Connect connid localhost changeme changeme changeme)
exten = _,3,MYSQL(Query resultid ${connid} SELECT\ pin\ from\
user_pin_table\ where\ pin=${EXTEN})
exten = _,4,MYSQL(Fetch fetchid ${resultid} pin)
exten = _,5,Authenticate(${pin})

if the auth is okay, you can fetch the username for that PIN using
Set(CDR(accountcode)=fetched_user)
