Re: [asterisk-users] Question about Presence and IM feature
15 jan 2010 kl. 08.23 skrev Yuji Kondo: I have two questions for Asterisk feature. 1. Can Asterisk support presence feature ? Asterisk is a telephony PBX and supports presence subscriptions for extension states - if a phone line is busy or not, over a few different SIP presence formats, like SIP dialog-info and SIMPLE. Is latest version supporting PUBLISH method No. 2. Can Asterisk provide Instant Messaging feature as server ? During a phone call, yes. Not otherwise.

Re: [asterisk-users] Beginners Guide to setting up a Call Centre
Ok this has Probably been put to bed several time but never mind. Elastix, Trixbox, or AsterixNow, or DIY (ie Ubuntu or whatever installed with OpenPBX, Asterix etc by hand) I've got a new server to run Asterix on and want to get it working quickly and yet be configurable in the future with out having to reisntall and start again regally. Currently no VoIP hardware but that will come once I prove the concept. I guess Oh the machine does not have a CD Rom Drive so a network/USB install would be nice.. But I guess I can open the case and plug one in for installation if I must! (Says he who has just installed Ubuntu over the network to check the computer works!)

After I did this the caller stopped hearing a ringing tone when ringing into this dial plan. When I put the Answer step back in instead of the NoOp the caller could hear the ringing tone when dialling in again. I've tried replacing the Answer with Ringing but I still got silence while the extensions and numbers were ringing. Any thoughts on this would be helpful and I will be trying to replicate this on out test system.

[asterisk-users] jitterbuffer and PLC
Hi, I have a question about jitterbuffer and PLC. I use Asterisk 1.6.2.0 and 1.6.0.20 or older. I use uLaw. My system map: = [ asterisk 2 ] -- # LOSS # -- # A # -- [ asterisk 1 ] -- # B # -- [ X-lite ] = I use two asterisk server. 'asterisk 2' do Playback(some voice file) 'asterisk 1' do jitter. 'asterisk 1' and 'asterisk 2' has trunked by sip or iax2. X-lite call 3003 to asterisk 1, and asterisk 1 call 3000 to asterisk 2. On the map, at LOSS I caused packet loss 5%, and at A and B I captured packet. I thought number of packets at B would be same number from asterisk 2. And I thought number of packets at A would be 95% from asterisk 2. But the result is different! At A and B is the same number as 95%. No PLC ,No interpolations has made. But on CLI,messages was like that jitter and PLC work right . Like this: === -- Local/3...@extd-651d;1 answered SIP/id-0001 -- fixed jitterbuffer created on channel Local/3...@extd-651d;1 VvvvLvvvLLvv vvLvvLvvv vvLvL L vLLvvLvvv vvLvvLvLv vLL-- Hungup 'IAX2/ip-address:4569-3645' == Spawn extension (extd, 3000, 2) exited non-zero on 'Local/3...@extd-651d;2' -- fixed jitterbuffer destroyed on channel Local/3...@extd-651d;1 == Spawn extension (extd, 3003, 2) exited non-zero on 'SIP/id-0001' === Why ? why no interpolations ? when sip trunk and iax trunk,same result.

Leif its not the network switch that i'm worried about, its the build in switch of the phones with the double network card Sure. My point was just that IF you only got one connection in the wall, its cheaper to get a switch than getting a phone with dual 1Gbit ports. Leif OK, point taken. but i have 6xisdn2 and already 2x24 gigabit switches (will need to replace one with a PoE version ) these connections include both desktops and current phones. i was just hoping to cut back the amount of cabling with 50%, and when i found out that most phones with 10/100/1000 connection cost about 250,- euro's a piece instead of 90,- for a decent version with 10/100 it was a real bummer, it would mean about doubling my budget. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [asterisk-users] Beginners Guide to setting up a Call Centre
2010/1/12 Jeff LaCoursiere j...@jeff.net That is so not true. FreePBX has hooks in a million places to do custom dialplan stuff - I do it all the time. I also link in custom AGI/AMI applications, custom provisioning, custom LCR, and am even working with one customer that has mastered making FreePBX multi-tenant. If you want to get your hands dirty there is plenty of dirt underneath FreePBX. On the other hand, if you want a simple setup that is easily managed, the GUI is fantastic and saves a LOT of time. And if you are a PHP programmer you can easily modify the operation of any part of it. Preach it brother. We take the same approach and have never had any difficulty integrating our customisations into the FreePBX dialplan. The common structure makes it EASIER for my techies to work on systems that we built and support. On asterisk-users its traditional to be hard core and raw-dialplan and look down on those who have projects to deliver and are happy to have the help. I'm not the insecure - each of you writing your raw dialplans runs some of my code every time you run Asterisk.

Currently no VoIP hardware but that will come once I prove the concept. I guess Oh the machine does not have a CD Rom Drive so a network/USB install would be nice.. But I guess I can open the case and plug one in for installation if I must! (Says he who has just installed Ubuntu over the network to check the computer works!) Decide if you are going to be a zealot for your preferred approach - Ubuntu and all that - or if you want a solution that works without tons of extra work. If you wisely decide that you want the latter, then get Elastix and install it. Buy QueueMetrics and install on your Elastix build. Start running your inbound call centre.

[asterisk-users] Getting Answered Stations instead of Group in cdr?
I have a dialplan entry that takes a did, and sends it to a group of stations Dial(Sip/ExtSip/ExtSip/Ext) etc. However, cdr only shows dst = 5000 (given) and lastdata shows the dial context, however I see no cdr entry for who actually answered the phone. , I can see dstchannel as SIP/-RandomHexNumbers but its not in an easy format such as dst/src.. Any easy way to get that in say the userfield? or should I just do some tsql and parse out the sip stations from dstchannel? (note, if nobody answers the call, dstchannel shows the last station in the dial context?? Which is incorrect) Any Ideas?

Re: [asterisk-users] Beginners Guide to setting up a Call Centre
2010/1/15 Doug Lytle supp...@drdos.info Decide if you are going to be a zealot for your preferred approach That's a little harsh, wouldn't you say? Do whatever your most comfortable with. But, to call me and those like me a zealot, for offering advice that was asked for is a little off, in my opinion. Hi Doug, Maybe I read too much into the original poster's question, and I didn't mean to be harsh. But I used to get called in often here in South Africa to sites where the usual way wasn't good enough for someone so they'd put the whole system together the way they thought it should be done and in the process bumped into all the subtle gotchas that are mostly worked out in the standard builds. Then discovered that its harder than they thought it would be and PBX users are ungrateful b*ggers sometimes and they've walked away. Our efforts to recover these installs are always twice the work because they are tainted by what went before. But we hate to see failed Asterisk projects so we try to get them right. If your objective is to run a simple inbound call centre and get good metrics into the bargain then a FreePBX-based ISO-install (Elastic, AsteriskNow, Trixbox-CE, whathaveyou) plus Queuemetrics will have you up an running in short order. Build from the bare metal using your-own-install-of-your-preferred-distro plus raw Asterisk plus dialplan from scratch plus DIY reportage and you'll be working away after a month and cursing Asterisk. Once you're an expert then you may indeed be able to do a better job for your application than the all-in-one distros. But not first time. So apologies to the poster if I read too much into the question, but this is the sort of situation I thought of.

On Fri, Jan 15, 2010 at 1:54 AM, randall rand...@songshu.org wrote: does anybody know of another solution to this or is my conclusion above simply all the choice there is? So let me get this straight. You're planning on buying multiple Gigabit, PoE switches, and you're quibbling over the price of running parallel data cable? The gigabit PoE switches are not cheap, at least if you're buying enterprise switches that actually deliver real gigabit, with full cross-sectional bandwidth. The cable isn't very much money, and if you double-wire now, you're ready when you have twice as many employees in the same space. Next, you don't say what this office is like, but I'm going to let you in on a little secret. Most people in an office rarely spike to a full 100Mbit connection. Do some bandwidth monitoring on your network and you'll discover that. A gigabit ethernet phone is a nice thing to have, but it's more a marketing thing than an actual necessity. Anybody that can afford a gigabit ethernet switching phone and true gigabit ethernet PoE backend can afford a second wire to every desk. Please let me know the use case if you find people can't be happy with a 100Mbit connection for the typical Windoze office environment. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Both channels work fine under 1.2/Zaptel. With 1.4/DAHDI both channels still work OK, but only for one line - the 2nd line causes it to refuse to dial-out no matter which port it's plugged into. The Lines are bog-standard BT analogue lines and we're about 2Km from the exchange. Both sound good to me and dial out OK with a test phone connected to them, but only one will dial-out via the PBX. This is what I see: [Jan 1 05:14:14] WARNING[1200]: app_dial.c:1237 dial_exec_full: Unable to create channel of type 'DAHDI' (cause 0 - Unknown) == Everyone is busy/congested at this time (1:0/0/1) And yet the line isn't busy or congested - nothing's using it.

Most important thing is to PLAN your solution out.. flowcharts, understanding where calls go, etc. Project planning, and good ideas on how the calls should be handled, and coming up with testing scenarios, to make sure everything flows correctly. From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Stephen Davies Sent: Friday, January 15, 2010 10:50 AM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Beginners Guide to setting up a Call Centre 2010/1/15 Doug Lytle supp...@drdos.info Decide if you are going to be a zealot for your preferred approach That's a little harsh, wouldn't you say? Do whatever your most comfortable with. But, to call me and those like me a zealot, for offering advice that was asked for is a little off, in my opinion. Hi Doug, Maybe I read too much into the original poster's question, and I didn't mean to be harsh. But I used to get called in often here in South Africa to sites where the usual way wasn't good enough for someone so they'd put the whole system together the way they thought it should be done and in the process bumped into all the subtle gotchas that are mostly worked out in the standard builds. Then discovered that its harder than they thought it would be and PBX users are ungrateful b*ggers sometimes and they've walked away. Our efforts to recover these installs are always twice the work because they are tainted by what went before. But we hate to see failed Asterisk projects so we try to get them right. If your objective is to run a simple inbound call centre and get good metrics into the bargain then a FreePBX-based ISO-install (Elastic, AsteriskNow, Trixbox-CE, whathaveyou) plus Queuemetrics will have you up an running in short order. Build from the bare metal using your-own-install-of-your-preferred-distro plus raw Asterisk plus dialplan from scratch plus DIY reportage and you'll be working away after a month and cursing Asterisk. Once you're an expert then you may indeed be able to do a better job for your application than the all-in-one distros. But not first time. So apologies to the poster if I read too much into the question, but this is the sort of situation I thought of.

[asterisk-users] Changing ring cadence on FXS lines
Is there a way I can change the ring cadence on FXS lines on a system using a Digium Wildcard TDM2400 card? I recently deployed a new phone system, and the customer has a few POTS phones in areas where they don't have data network services, so we're using the FXS lines to provide dialtone at those outbuildings. The old phone system would ring those phones with a short ring-short ring-pause cadence, which sounds louder to the users than Asterisk's default long ring-pause cadence. I tried setting a cadence line in chan_dahdi.conf and restarting Asterisk, and typing dahdi show cadences in the CLI after the restart showed my custom cadence, but the phones were still ringing long ring-pause. Can someone point me in the direction of what I'm doing wrong? -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

The cable isn't very much money, and if you double-wire now, you're ready when you have twice as many employees in the same space. i already have 3 cat5e wires running to each workplace, at the moment 2 are occupied with respectively 1 for a desktop and 1 for the old phone Next, you don't say what this office is like, but I'm going to let you in on a little secret. Most people in an office rarely spike to a full 100Mbit connection. Do some bandwidth monitoring on your network and you'll discover that. we use a lot of email which is IMAP based, for normal text like this email it will not be a problem but we are send huge picture attachments, when using 100mbit it can get real sluggish at times especially when you are in a hurry to forward them, plus i like to have /home directories mounted on the server. a little extra never hurts. A gigabit ethernet phone is a nice thing to have, but it's more a marketing thing than an actual necessity. i don't care for the phone to have gigabit connection, its about the desktops not losing gigabit connection Anybody that can afford a gigabit ethernet switching phone and true gigabit ethernet PoE backend can afford a second wire to every desk. its not the wires at the desk i wanted to get rid off, i was hoping to use less in the server room, from the patch panel to the switch. Please let me know the use case if you find people can't be happy with a 100Mbit connection for the typical Windoze office environment. windoze? people still use that? ;) we mostley have Xubuntu based desktops running here, not that it matters or is absolutely necessary to have, but its a terrible thing to loose if you are used to it, also i use the LAN here sometimes for cluster testing. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
[asterisk-users] Digium Asterisk World at ITEXPO - Yahoo keynote update
I don't know how many of you are going to be at ITEXPO/Digium Asterisk World in Miami next week - I hope to see as many of you as possible, though. There has been an interesting change in the line-up for the show, that I think bears mentioning here since it possibly will help quite a few of you in your discussions about getting Asterisk into your company. We've had the good fortune to have a last-minute keynote addition at the show, which is going to be Jeremy Wadhams from Yahoo. He's going to be talking about a Fortune 500 implementation of Asterisk across their entire network, and why they made the decision to move to Open- Source telephony for the core of their voice network. Keynote: 3:30 - 4:00 PM on Wednesday - Jeremy Wadhams, Yahoo It's not yet on the ITEXPO site, since we only confirmed this yesterday with Jeremy, who is really being a great sport for doing this on short notice. Having Yahoo giving a keynote on their multi-thousand seat installation is great news for the Asterisk community in general, and is great news specifically for other Enterprise managers who have been looking for that all-important set of examples of public users of a technology. (Enterprise tends to move in herds.) There are large numbers of Enterprise users of Asterisk, but it's always great to get a name-brand company who can be offered as a proponent of Asterisk.

Re: [asterisk-users] 10/100 voip phones and gigabit connection
If the phone is first, then it slightly limits the PC and rebooting the phone causes loss of contact with the PC. If the PC is first you have to have dual ports on it (a few bucks of hardware, plus configuration costs), then rebooting the PC causes the phone to loose contact with the world. Not good if you are on the phone and need to reboot. Two separate feeds would work best, but cost more. Dual wall jacks with green-PC and blue-Phone jacks could then be used. The phone will be on the desk, the PC may be under it. Two jacks, two cables. If there were a standard for two Ethernet connections in a cable... that could work, but might interfere with Power Over Ethernet. I wouldn't want to be like Bill Gates saying 640K memory is enough for anyone circa-197?, but isn't two 100 meg connections enough for any single desk? The phone doesn't really need more than 10 meg. An advantage of the separate net for the phone, is that it would make POE easy for the phones, and eliminate a lot of wall warts under every desk. Plug in the phone and it works. YMMV.

In regards to a CD/DVD drive, I have a small ISP farm for web/email hosting. I stopped putting cd/dvd readers in the servers about 2 years ago. All the new motherboards out there support booting from a USB drive, so why bother? Get one good DVD drive and put it in a case with a USB adapter in it and just plug it in when you need it.

Re: [asterisk-users] Changing ring cadence on FXS lines
Noah I. Engelberth wrote: Is there a way I can change the ring cadence on FXS lines on a system using a Digium Wildcard TDM2400 card? I recently deployed a new phone system, and the customer has a few POTS phones in areas where they don't have data network services, so we're using the FXS lines to provide dialtone at those outbuildings. The old phone system would ring those phones with a short ring-short ring-pause cadence, which sounds louder to the users than Asterisk's default long ring-pause cadence. I tried setting a cadence line in chan_dahdi.conf and restarting Asterisk, and typing dahdi show cadences in the CLI after the restart showed my custom cadence, but the phones were still ringing long ring-pause. Can someone point me in the direction of what I'm doing wrong? http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+ZAP+channels Lyle Giese LCR Computer Services, Inc. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [asterisk-users] 10/100 voip phones and gigabit connection
Windows, yes, but used to be through 3rd party software. Doubt this has changed as Windows has no focus on any useful network anything. Linux, yes, and it's definitely not complicated. Probably take 2 minutes to setup if you already had bridge utils installed, maybe 5 if you had to install the package first. Regardless, I would say this wouldn't be the best solution for the reasons someone already mentioned - you form some dependency between the phone and the PC. 2 cables is definitely the best, followed by a cheap gig switch at each desk. Also, someone was mentioning if you could run 2 ethernet connections through one cable. This works with 10/100 (as only 2 pairs are used, so you can wire 2 pairs to one jack, and the other 2 pairs in the cat5 to the other jack), but doesn't work with gigabit, as it uses all 4 pairs. Even if you just consider 10/100, this is a nifty hack in a pinch, but I seriously doubt anyone does this in a professional install. Cable isn't all that expensive when it comes right down to it.

[asterisk-users] Realtime cached values
Hello, Does the cached values for realtime peers expire automatically? I have rtcachefriends=yes in sip.conf. When the peer registers for the first time it is cached. After the first registration if I modify the peer in the database the new values are not used until I do a 'sip prune realtime peer' or 'sip reload'. Is it possible to specify an expiry time for the cached values so that asterisk does a database look-up again.

Re: [asterisk-users] Beginners Guide to setting up a Call Centre
Looking at all the docs I can find Asterisks looks like it should be able to do the job and a whole lot more. This is for a small call centre so ideally we want all the features of an average call centre, ACD, Call Recording, Queue's etc etc. Any pointers on how to get started would be most helpful. Peter. --- (sorry this is so long) Peter, I figured that I would chime in, as I run IT and am a managing partner of a small call center based on Asterisk and I think that my experience will be helpful (hate to beat a dead horse)... Asterisk can definitely do what you need, so I am not going to talk about that any further. I wouldn't waste my time with anything else. I would strongly recommend either of the two following methods to get started, with the deciding factors being time and money. There are lots of factors that will sway this argument, such as the complexity of your workflow, CTI needs, etc., but those time and money are the biggies. You also have to carefully weigh your support requirements, uptime, and your desire to manage a phone system. Asterisk doesn't have to take that much work once it's installed and tuned, but it will require some maintenance. You will need to evaluate whether or not you want to take on that maintenance role or whether you want to pay to have it done for you. Method 1: A professional installation by a Digium Certified Asterisk Professional. It will cost you some money, how much depends on your needs and how clearly you articulate them. There are lots of great people out there that can help you get EXACTLY what you want and design a system that will grow with your business. Call Digium for recommendations, or reply to this with your contact info and we can talk off list (I'm not trying to sell anything, but I have some people that I can recommend). This can be a great option for a solid Asterisk system with good support and reliable operation with little maintenance. There's a couple different approaches to this method- managed and developed with support. Managed is where the team that developed the dialplan and asterisk environment for you manages the system for you as well for a recurring support fee. Drawbacks to this method: A. You will have to find a good vendor that will charge fairly and deliver on their SLA (always get an SLA with enforceable penalties). This isn't that tough, but it's important. B. The recurring support costs can eat into your budget quickly C. This will take some time to develop properly, and for simple environments it may be overkill. D. Adds/changes/ and deletes can be costly as well. This can be mitigating by communicating the need to accommodate staff turnover with a user maintainable system. Method 2: Get a distro, install it, be dialing in about 8 hours or less (the route that I took when we started). This method is by far and away the easiest, cheapest, get-it-up-and-running-consequences-be-damned method. You will take less time, effort and money to get going like this than any other way I know of. If your call flow is simple to moderately complex, this is the way to go in my opinion. The FreePBX distros (Trixbox, AsteriskNOW [I think], Elastix, etc) all are very well put together, and will do everything that you listed in your original message and then some. Of the distro's, I would probably either go with AsteriskNOW or, if you are up for a little more setup work, FreePBX on it's own. Drawbacks to this method: A. I can't speak for others, but I found that the configuration engines have their limitations when it comes to call centers. They simply weren't designed to do some of the specific things that we needed to do as we grew. This doesn't mean that they wont do everything you need though, each case is unique. They were fine for us in the beginning, but as our business grew so did our specific needs, and we outgrew these solutions. There is nothing wrong with that if you understand from the outset that you may have needs that aren't met in the future. These distros have to factor in the needs of their respective communities, and what may be good for one organization might not be good for others. B. Troubleshooting issues can be more complex as you start to understand Asterisk and increase your level of sophistication. I had a hard time troubleshooting FreePBX until I understood it's dialplan more, and it made troubleshooting complicated as I didn't fully understand the call flow through it's dialplan. The more you work with it, the easier it gets, but there can be a learning curve. C. Integration with other vendor's products can sometimes be a challenge if they don't already support your configuration GUI. D. You cannot, no matter what anyone tells you (I know this to be cold, hard fact), modify the built in dialplan of FreePBX. When you upgrade, or even
