[asterisk-users] How to set fromuser in sip.conf so each user gets it's own callerid?
I'm a first time user of Asterisk and have a working setup which I find clumsy. How can I clean things up to make the dialplan easier to maintain? My problem == I have 6 public numbers that can reach 6 individual users. I have 6 lines like this in sip.conf: [general] register = 31307115622:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/622 register = 31307115627:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/627 each user registers with something like this: [siemens1](xanadu-internal) type=friend callerid=Theo Band context=xanadu-thba [belcentrale-out-thba](belcentrale-outgoing) type=peer fromuser=31307115622 My extenson.conf looks like this: [xanadu-thba] exten = _+.,1,goto(00${EXTEN:1},1);00 is long distance calls = + exten = _0[1-9].,1,goto(0031${EXTEN:1},1);local calls =0031 exten = _0031Z., 1,Macro(dialout,SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED]);NL exten = _+ZXX., 1,Macro(dialout,SIP/00${EXTEN:[EMAIL PROTECTED]);INT My dialplan contains a context like xanadu-user for every user, only to be able to set the fromuser correctly. This works but I prefer to have one dialplan and set some sort of variable containing the fromuser in sip.conf for every registered user. I read the entire march list (that's a lot!) and was also not able to find a proper search term that covers this question.

[asterisk-users] hanguponpolarityswitch - where did it go??
There are a few mentions in the wiki [1] about a zapata.conf flag hanguponpolarityswitch. It is meant to cause Asterisk to detect a hangup when the line polarity switches at the end of the call. The wiki mentions using the flag in zapata.conf but when I do Asterisk ignores it: Apr 12 17:59:38 WARNING[12804]: chan_zap.c:10875 setup_zap: Ignoring hanguponpolarityswitch Does anyone have any ideas how to enable or use this feature?

Hi, as far as I know, it only says ignoring when you do a reload, as Asterisk is telling you its not reconfiguring this variable, to change it you might need a restart.

So, I wanna do something to this: Exten = _**XXX,1,SendDtmf(*8#) because if I introduce *8# into my telephone i can pickup a call from everywhere.

Re: [asterisk-users] Maximum retries exceeded on transmission
I confirm the same behaviour. I use asterisk with Mera Softswitch (with SIP HIT). After upgrading from 1.2.13 to 1.2.14 Maximum retries exceeded... messages began to appear in logs. About 10% of calls were lost. I've dumped such calls and don't see anything suspicous in Mera's packets. Asterisk doesn't reply for first several INVITEs from Mera but then it replies OK, Mera sends back ACK but it seems that asterisk ignores it and tries to send OK. After trying to send OK several times asterisk hangs up the call. I've attached the text file where this can be seen. Mera SS is 10.150.16.4. We see that asterisk replies to INVITEs after 4 seconds. That's wierd. Server is not heavily loaded - about 10 simultanious calls. I've downgraded to 1.2.13 and problem has gone away. I guess there is something wrong with asterisk. Regards. Andrey Solovjov. Edoardo Serra: Same to me !!

[asterisk-users] Re: Which SIP phones to buy?
Quoting Stephen Bosch [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I'm trying to decide which phones to experiment with. I have these options: - A combination of Polycom, Aastra and Snom - Just Polycom One the one hand, I'd like to keep things uniform, since it greatly simplifies provisioning. On the other hand, I don't want to broaden my knowledge. Advice, anyone? -Stephen- You said 'office' so I'm presuming you want business quality. If you have already tried the Polycom's I'd look at Aastra (just did a 50+ seat implementation with 9133i's 480i's) and also look at the Cisco 79xx's. Cisco's Aastra's both handle multiple appearances differently but both are excellent. Cisco has superb handsfree quality. Aastra has better BLF support. You will have to evaluate for yourself. Aastra is significantly cheaper. That said, there is a 7960 on my desk that isn't going anywhere soon. I hear the Grandstream firmware is better now but physically they are still pretty flimsy. I would stay away from them for anything but experimentation. dbc. ___ --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] CDR(disposition)
I think this has to do with how your dial plan is setup. If you are making a call to a cell phone, i'm assuming that you are using an FXO (or some sort of phone service). My guess is that the disposition is being marked ANSWERED because the FXO is picking up (or the phone service is) and answering the call from Asterisk. The Dial() function is communicating with the FXO to determine whether or not the call is actually working. Unfortunately, my guess is that the CDR is only applicable to the connection between Asterisk and your termination point (FXO or otherwise). I say this because I know that, in the instance of QOS statistics, the CDR would not be able to know whats happening beyond the FXO.

It's fitting that an open source product like Asterisk is helping keep the US in the game. -Stephen- ___ --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 ___ --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

I had a Grandstream configured with the same information before I got the 301 and never had that kind of feedback noise. Feedback? As in high-pitched squealing? I can't imagine any circumstance under which a SIP phone would even allow feedback. Maybe you mean echo? You might also be talking about sidetone, which is the portion of your own voice that the phone pipes back to you so that you can adjust your voice accordingly. Sidetone can be set in the phone configuration; before you do that, though, I need to know what you mean by feedback. Sorry, should have been more detailed. It's a sort of background humming noise, almost like that if you placed the phone next to a high output electric device. Didn't hear it with Grandstream phone so I thought it may be something I can change in Polycom. Of course, it could also be that polycom is better phone, but more apt to pick up background noise that It's only on zap calls. I'm still playing with rxgain and txgain in hopes of resolving this. Basically, the humming noise increase with volume. -- Warm Regards, Lee ___ --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

I'm surprised no-one else has mentioned this. Are you sure it does that? Hmmm, I thought I was, but it looks like I was mistaken... I was probably misled by the name Background(), which is perhaps not an accurate description of its function then. I'm under the impression that it waits until the sound(s) have finished playing before moving on to the next priority. (While listening for digits to be pushed, then be dialled) So the only difference between Playback() and Background() is that the latter will accept incoming digits (and use them to divert the dialplan) and the former won't.

The Aastra 480i is a good quality phone, on par with Cisco and probably with Polycom (though I've never used them). Voice quality is good, phone feels robust. Config is well documented and contained in two text files (one global, one MAC specific). Good web interface on the phone. Aastra support have been very responsive. Grandstream phones are lower quality but good value for money. Sound and feel of phones is not so good as Aastra or Cisco.

[asterisk-users] Asterisk 1.2.17 and Cisco 7940/SIP: bug or what?
Hi. I'm stuck into an odd situation. Here's what happens: 4 Thomson ST2030S 2 Cisco 7912 3 Cisco 7940 2 AAstra 480i Asterisk 1.2.17 Diva 4BRI + chan_capi I've just upgraded yesterday from Asterisk 1.2.13 to 1.2.17. Until yesterday, everything was just fine with 1.2.13. Immediately after the upgrade, *all* the 7940 are no more able to make calls, just receive them, while 7912 models as well as any other phone work fine. Firmware on 7940 is 8.6 (the latest one). The configuration for asterisk is really simple. After many hours guessing and reloading configuration changes, I've traced the full debug output from both asterisk logger and one 7940. Here's what happens 1) I dial the number on the 7940 (which, by the way is regularly registered as a peer and REACHABLE by asterisk) 2) the 7940 sends an INVITE to asterisk 3) Asterisk sends back a 407 Authorization required 4) The 7940 sends back an ACK 5) The 7940 sends a new INVITE which includes the MD5 challenge response 6) nothing happens in asterisk (nothing logged, even with full debug enabled) 7) the 7940 retries sending the INVITE many times, until it times out 8) I hang up the handset What on Earth is happening Why is not Asterisk logging the subsequent INVITEs from the phone?

On Wed, 11 Apr 2007, Kevin P. Fleming wrote: Alan Ferrency wrote: This means that all queue activity is associated with a SIP channel in the logs, which is not acceptable. This is why we added the 'membername' argument to the AddQueueMember application, so that queue logs can reflect a logical name for the queue member, regardless of what channel/interface they logged in from. Okay, 'membername' does seem like it will solve several of our concerns. Thank you for pointing out this option and its intended use. 1. a person cannot be logged into more than one phone 2. only one person at a time can be logged into a phone For points #1 and #2, you are correct that this logic will have to be built. If all the rest of our functionality is taken care of, solving these might not be a problem. There is no reason for you to do _anything_ today, other than to start thinking about how you want to do it in the future when you decide to upgrade to Asterisk 1.6 and have to replace it... ... which is exactly what I've been trying to do with this thread. We have no plans to upgrade asterisk out of the 1.2 branch, because at this point the implementation costs would be far too high, as long as all we'd get out of it is downtime followed by status quo. (We're still using 1.2.3, because from what I've read, the combination of features we require has serious deadlock race conditions in newer versions of Asterisk. Let's just say, this is far from ideal.) ... but acting today like the functionality has been removed and that you are being forced to rearchitect your system seems a little bit extreme (in my opinion, of course). This is not the way I am acting. My intent with this thread is to: * learn enough about the new solution to know whether it will serve our needs or not * if not, try to push development in the direction we will need, _when_ the time comes that we must upgrade * show anyone who's listening our specific use case for AgentCallbackLogin, which may or may not have been considered My intent has not been to try to stop the deprecation of AgentCallbackLogin. When the time comes that we do decide to upgrade and reconfigure, I will need a high level of confidence that the solution I propose will serve our needs, and will provide value comparable to the cost of implementation. I can't achieve that by ignoring the situation until the last minute. From the example new solution and related documentation I have read previously, I did not come away with the impression that it did everything we needed it to. Your clarifications have helped on several points that I missed. So from my personal perspective, I consider this thread at least partially successful. It may be that more complete documentation would help mitigate this (perceived) problem. At least it would let you answer e-mails such as mine, which are likely far more common than you'd prefer, with a single rtfm:// URL. As it is now, we have a chicken-and-egg situation. Since no one is required to stop using AgentCallbackLogin, few have stopped using it. So, there are few examples in the wild of how to reimplement specific feature requirements. This lack of examples increases the migration cost away from AgentCallbackLogin, and the circle is closed.

Playing with hints/presence/BLF on asterisk I've made the following discoveries. 1. The wiki at http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+presence says: If you add incominglimit=1 to your peer in sip.conf, the SIP channel will notify you when that extension is busy. As incominglimit is obsolete you can use call-limit. Also you don't need to limit it to one, just having a call-limit at all works. (Tried with call-limit 20). What is the logic behind the linking of presence to call-limit? 2. A phone is only seen as busy if it's received an incoming call. Outgoing calls don't change the state.

Overall, I like the Cisco best. I even bought one for home use. Configuration was no more difficult than any other. The Cisco, Aastra and Polycom have similar voice quality. They're all very good handsets and speakerphones. Of these three, the Aastra is the only backlit display, but it is hard to read from an angle and the backlight is not very effective. Aastra is also very vulnerable to glare. The Cisco and Polycom are easier to read unless you are in a darkened room. The Grandstream GXP2000 and Budgetone 200 have nice, bright and easy to read displays, but the phone aesthetics are not up to par with the others. For daily use, the Cisco and Polycom buttons are smoothest. The Aastra is close, but not as comfortable to use. It seems that round buttons function better. The Grandstream buttons are just heavy and cumbersome. The Polycom is the biggest pain in the ass to initially configure because of the extended boot time. All other brands I've used boot within a minute and are ready to use. The Polycom takes around 4 and if you are using the web interface for initial configuration, you need to reboot frequently. Once you've worked out your configuration, new phone installs are pretty simple with any brand. The Aastra and Grandstream web interfaces are easy to use and you may make multiple changes and then reboot when you're done. The Cisco has no web interface. For routine provisioning, Cisco only supports tftp and telnet. The Polycom supports tftp, ftp, sftp, http and https. The Aastra supports tftp, ftp http. Placing a logo on the Cisco display is trivial. I have not been successful with any other brand so far. For PoE use, the Polycom and Aastra use 802.3af. Up to the 7970, Cisco used a proprietary PoE pin configuration and require a special cable to use with a standards compliant PoE switch. The cable is easy to make, but you have to ensure that users are aware of the difference. As for price, Drew is right about the high cost of Cisco. If I hadn't found one on eBay, my personal phone would likely be Aastra. ___ --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] Which SIP phones to buy?
The Cisco phones are quite good. The thing that most people don't tend to appreciate about them is that they all are designed essentially for mass-provisioning in large environments, and to operate with Call Manager. Provisioning them using their GUI/configuration interface on a one-off basis is a pain in the butt, this is absolutely true. They were never really intended to be used in that manner. If you can take the time to do the TFTP thing, though, they really are very wonderful, featureful, reliable, comfortable, and, I would go so far as to say, turn-key. Just my $.02.

I'm trying to find answers and Polycom's only got one reported case of this (which I find bazaar, but whatever). The problem was resolved, the problem was the user was using 1.6.5 configuration files with the 2.x firmware. Once the user put the config files that are sent with the firmware, problem went away. I cannot stress this enough, as minuet or insignificant a change may appear in the configuration files, or as similar as they look, use the ones provided with the firmware! Now, I'm not sure if we've done this ourselves, but I'm having one of our support guys today looking at it and getting new configuration files into our phones. I'll see if that resolves the problem or not. I may not have an answer back until Friday or Monday, but if any of you guys experiencing this issue want to try as well, be my guess.

Here is a exact message: WARNING[6055]: codec_speex.c:237 speextolin_framein: Out of buffer space Has anybody had success in using Speex (8 khz) with Asterisk? My real interest is to use Speex (16 khz) but it seems like 16 khz speex is not supported with Asterisk. Any comments? Thanks, Madhuri No need to miss a message. Get email on-the-go with Yahoo!

Provided that the Asterisk servers can be set up to hold identical SIP contacts (URIs), you can just set up a dialplan such that it fails over if a primary trunk is unavailable and sends the call via SIP to another server which can then put it on its trunks. -- Alex Balashov [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ --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] RE: Which SIP phones to buy?
I've had experience with quite a few different phones, so I think I'm qualified to drop my two cents: Alex is quite right that the Cisco phones are only designed to be used with Cisco Call Manager. They are capable of being decent SIP telephones, but Cisco won't provide the documentation so that you can use them effectively with anything other than Cisco Call Manager, so that's the deal killer. Like everything else Cisco, they're also ridiculously expensive. Despite what Alex says, the Cisco SIP phones have plenty of fundamental flaws. I have a number of expensive 7970G phones with a beautiful color display. Each of the various SIP firmware versions available for that product has a serious flaw. The most acceptable version is about a year old. It's biggest flaw is that the Message Waiting Indicator doesn't work. Most of the other SIP firmware versions won't register with Asterisk. If you are planning to usee Asterisk, save your money and your sanity and buy something else. In my last project, I used the Aastra 480i phones. Yes, the documentation is lacking, but that's largely because the platform was evolving quickly. Aastra has excellent and responsive technical support via e-mail. Finally, the customer was very satisfied with the quality and the price of the 480i phones. In my latest project, I used the newer Aastra 57i and 57i CT phones. It is obvious that these phones derived from the 480i software, but they are much faster and more full-featured with great displays, etc. The initial documentation with these is fairly good and complete. I have them doing all kinds of things, including using the XML capabilities to push server applications to the display, update the softkeys in real-time, etc. As contrasted against Cisco, Aastra even provides PHP include files to greatly simplify web development on whatever platform (Asterisk, Sylantro, etc.) you are using. The 57i phones are a little expensive, but they are a top-notch product that works very well with Asterisk right out of the box. Plus, they look and sound great and have 12 softkeys that shift to 20. One of the others that responded to your question mentioned something about setting up a TFTP server and I want to elaborate on that a little. If you are deploying more than a small handful of phones, you will want to setup a TFTP server anyway. It would be muy loco to try deploying and supporting a few dozen phones otherwise. Many of the phone's features aren't even accessible through the web interface anyway - you have to have a TFTP server and make use of the configuration files for full functionality. And that applies to Aastra, Cisco, Polycom or whatever. Finally, it can take a fair amount of labor to configure Asterisk and your particular phone to work together as a system. Don't kill yourself by attempting to mix and match various phones on the same system as that seriously increases the complexity. Keep it simple.

Re: [asterisk-users] RE: Which SIP phones to buy?
Ken, You have certainly had experience with a broader range of phones, so I have no doubt you can lend more insight on this count. But for what it's worth, my experience is largely confined to the Cisco 7960s. I've never had any trouble getting any SIP firmware image to register with Asterisk, nor configuring them by hand against Asterisk in network situations that don't lend themselves to autoprovisioning setups. And I've never had any issues with features like MWI or various other notifications. About the only thing I've run into is that some of the older default dialplan.xml's tend to be hostile to numbers that start with 8xx, such as (but not exclusively) toll-free numbers. TFTP provisioning is, of course, the best way to blank those. Other than that, I've got no complaints. Awesome speakerphone, nice configuration interface, conferencing features, etc. And while they are obviously Call Manager-centric, I wouldn't go so far as to say that Cisco provides no documentation on how to get them to work otherwise; I've needed -- and found -- it.

[asterisk-users] zaptel/ssh interaction
I hope I don't get flamed the first time I post to a new list. I have spent a couple of hours poking around without seeing anything like this. The problem is, as soon as I load the Zaptel drivers (with a TDM-31B card), ssh into or out of the server is broken. Trying to ssh in, I get: RSA_public_decrypt failed: error:0407006A:rsa routines:RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1:block type is not 01 key_verify failed for server_host_key If I try to ssh out, I get: hash mismatch key_verify failed for server_host_key This makes administering the server remotely impossible, so it's a fairly large problem for me right now. Anybody ever seen anything like this? It is easy to reproduce: modprobe zaptel and it's broken. modprobe -r zaptel and it works fine. Also, and probably somehow related, when the zaptel drivers are loaded, the sound through the sound card is screwed up. I can still hear it, but there are extraneous beeps, crackles and pops in it.

[asterisk-users] RAGI channel_status() never returnes
Hi there, I am new to this ML. Recently I started working on Asterisk 1.4 + RAGI + Ruby on Rails to create a call history browser. To record call history, I am trying to capture dialup, answer and hangup events. To check what status a call is, I use channel_status() that RAGI provides. I am having a trouble on this function. In a polling loop that checks call status, the first call of channel_status() returns -1 that indicates a failure. Then the second call never returns to caller once called. Below is a debug log and the code snippet of my app: debug log: [2007-04-13 08:42:40] INFO Dialup [2007-04-13 08:42:40] INFO Dialing [2007-04-13 08:42:40] INFO Waiting for call to be done [2007-04-13 08:42:40] INFO -1 [2007-04-13 08:42:48] INFO Hangup code: require 'ragi/call_handler' require thread class CallHistoryHandler RAGI::CallHandler def dialup logger = WEBrick::Log::new logger.info(Dialup) hangup = false; Thread.start { # Keep running until the call is hung up while hangup == false # The 1st call returns -1 # The 2nd call never returns status = channel_status() # To show the polling loop keeps on running logger.info(Waiting for call to be done) if status == 4 logger.info(Ringing)# Still ringing elsif status == 6 logger.info(Answered) # Call is answered else logger.info(status) end end # dial() is done logger.info(Call has been hung up) } logger.info(Dialing) dial('IAX2/' + @params['agi_extension'])# Place a call hangup = true; # Notify the call is hung up. logger.info(Hangup) end end Does anyone have clue about why the 2nd call of channel_status() never returns?

Did you miss the part when I wrote I have Asstras sitting on my desk collecting dust. I program on average about 5 per month, deal with about 40+ per day. They're as impressive as that Hyundai in the lot next to the Aston Martins. I totally agree about the Cisco and Grandstream. People like to think the Cisco are great because they paid too much for them. People want to like the Grandstream because they are so cheap. I have no interest in dealing with Polycoms unwillingness to support Asterisk. Cisco is overrated. Grandstream... You get what you pay for. I don't know who you deal with I have direct contacts with Polycoms to get what I want when I need it. Anyhow after doing a sip show peers and saving it to a file called UA here is a summary from 2 servers I have to deal with on a daily basis... This doesn't include others, these are my main two headaches... The files UA are nothing more than more or less: asterisk -rx sip show peers|awk -F / '{print $1}'|grep -v \.\|[a-z-]|uniq UA (Server 1 of 3.

Of these two PBX's... I get less calls about the Snoms with the exception of Daylight Savings Time... Polycom is the most problematic followed by Cisco... Aastra's...

[asterisk-users] Outside Network PAP and also Outside Network eyeBeam Soft Phone
I have been trying to setup a PAP2 adapter on a remote network but can't seem to get it to work. The unit will register with the server and it can make calls to extensions on the Asterisk server but it can't receive any calls and it can't make any calls outside of the Asterisk server. I also have a eyebeam soft phone that works when it is inside the network but when I am on other networks it won't. It will also register and it will make calls and will receive calls but there is no audio either way on it. Can someone point me in the right direction, or is there a Asterisk expert willing to look at it with me for pay of course?

Re: [asterisk-users] zaptel/ssh interaction
Greg Woods wrote: I hope I don't get flamed the first time I post to a new list. I have spent a couple of hours poking around without seeing anything like this. The problem is, as soon as I load the Zaptel drivers (with a TDM-31B card), ssh into or out of the server is broken. Trying to ssh in, I get: RSA_public_decrypt failed: error:0407006A:rsa routines:RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1:block type is not 01 key_verify failed for server_host_key If I try to ssh out, I get: hash mismatch key_verify failed for server_host_key This makes administering the server remotely impossible, so it's a fairly large problem for me right now. Anybody ever seen anything like this? It is easy to reproduce: modprobe zaptel and it's broken. modprobe -r zaptel and it works fine. Also, and probably somehow related, when the zaptel drivers are loaded, the sound through the sound card is screwed up. I can still hear it, but there are extraneous beeps, crackles and pops in it. Aside from this, I love my new asterisk system, and my wife has almost gotten used to having to dial 9 to get out of the house :-) I suspect IRQ Sharing. cat /proc/interrupts to see. If you are seeing more than 1 device on the same IRQ, see the mailing list archives on ways to resolve this. ___ --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
