Re: [asterisk-users] what codec is sip using?
Sean, Try 'sip show channels' or 'sip show channel channelid' for the drill down. I believe the codec in use will be displayed with either command.

Re: [asterisk-users] PoE switch recommendations?
We've been EXTREMELY happy with the HP 5400ZL series chassis switch. Price per port is about 1/3 that of Cisco when it comes to POE. Price is about $100 per port and all ports are 1Gb with POE by default -- you can't get modules that don't have 1Gb and POE. 10Gb uplinks are available with other modules.

Re: [asterisk-users] Cisco 7906g SIP

Make sure that only the contents of the cop file and the SEPmac.cnf file are present in your tftp root. Then unplug the phone and press and hole the # key.

This will factory reset the phone and should cause it to check the termxx.default.loads file for the proper image.

My only concern - my phones are Cisco 7960's (with sccp firmware 7.2 loaded) and to support them better, I remember compiling in a skinny(?) driver to replace the (from what I could tell) basic in built sccp support. After digging around a little it would appear that the original creator of the skinny driver has not done any development for ages. Simple question, has 1.4 got better native support for sccp now without having to add in anything extra to make everything work ok?, if not, is there a version that someone may have carried forward of the skinny driver that will work with 1.4?

You can use the Cisco phones with either the SIP of the SCCP image.

Re: [asterisk-users] network design philosophy and practice
Fair enough, I guess I was concentrating on this line in Jerry's message :) The only reason I can think of not to is to eliminate the cost of the second cable. I believe you're mistaken about the QOS though. QoS is not required on lightly loaded links and will do nothing for you on over loaded ones. QOS will absolutely allow voice traffic to pass with priority over heavily loaded links -- this is in fact the reason that it would be implemented. Obviously giving priority to the voice traffic on these heavily loaded links serves to mitigate both latency and jitter. The concern is almost never one of taking bandwidth away from the desktop, but one of the desktop taking bandwidth (especially by introducing latency) away from the phone. Agreed -- but with VLAN tagging and QOS, the issue of how much bandwidth the desktop uses and/or needs becomes moot since the phone is given priority. Dave David Gibbons wrote: Two separate networks?

The key point is that the last yard cable to the phone is not shared with the computer. The issue is not a lack of bandwidth but that the phone has to try and get its little packets inserted between the massive packets of a database lookup or file transfer in a timely manner (latency and jitter). You might get away with a single logical network on a smaller site or a larger one with very light traffic. QoS is not required on lightly loaded links and will do nothing for you on over loaded ones.

Re: [asterisk-users] SPA-962 Asterisk
I've never used the Sipura phones but they probably sync with an NTP server. My guess is that the NTP server is on the asterisk box (you can probably verify this by checking the config of the phones and finding the option for NTP server). It is possible that the NTP service isn't running on the asterisk box (after a reboot or a crash) or that the asterisk box's time is incorrect. Do you know what distribution you are running on the server? You can type 'uname -a' at a command prompt and get an idea of the distro. Also try '/etc/init.d/ntpd' start or 'service ntpd start' - these may be able to restart the NTP daemon for you and begin syncing the phones properly again.

I'm confused as to why you think leaving a phone off the hook is better than parking the call and hanging up the phone. The phone that's off the hook can't receive any more calls after you've 'pulled' the one it was on the line with, assuming you don't walk back to that phone and subsequently hang it up, making the originating extension effectively useless.

I'm don't have any facts, but I'll bet you a penny that they don't have a proprietary system using something /OTHER/ than IP to send encapsulated voice over 'additional frequency spectrum'. That would be prohibitively expensive to develop and pointless from a technical standpoint, given that IP telephony is already set to deploy and relatively mature. The reliability of faxing is based soley on network jitter and latency and codec compression.

In my limited memory, this last weekend represents a new low in the relevant subject to noise ratio. Replying to requests with meaningless, misleading, or misspelled subject lines (I need help, asterisk help, Ntework Card) encourage careless posting and obfuscate useful replies from search engines. Also, while replying to such requests may seem helpful, some of the requests indicate such a lack of basic understanding that giving the answer is like giving a small child a very sharp knife when they ask for a slice of bread. For example: How do I delete these files that end in that squiggly thing in my current directory and all directories below? Since most of these users are probably running as root, a simple extra space here and a missed character there (rm --force --recursive /* ~ vs rm --force --recursive ./*~ can have catastrophic consequences. In an attempt to improve the quality of the lists, I propose the following: For a user's first 10 posts, they will receive a reply with a link to a web page and have to answer the following questions: 0) I acknowledge that I am asking for free help and I acknowledge that following the conventions below increase my chances of engaging another list member with relevant expertise and resolving my request. 1) I am posting a new request. a) My request cannot be answered on a more general list such as Beginning Unix, or on a distribution specific list. b) My request cannot be answered on a more specific list such as an AsteriskNow or Trixbox list. c) I have attempted to search for an answer using a search engine such as Google. d) I know what thread hijacking is and I created this request from scratch. e) I have created a meaningful subject line that indicates with as much specificity as reasonable which part of Asterisk I need help with and why. f) I am not posting a self-serving message directing someone to my product that would be better posted to the -biz list. g) I am not posting in HTML. h) I am posting in English. i) I am fluent in English or I have attempted to have someone who is review my request. j) I have run my request through my spell checking resources. or 2) I am posting a reply to a post. a) I know what top posting is and I am not ignoring the convention of the list. b) I am not posting a self-serving message directing someone to my product that would be better posted to the -biz list or only to the requester. c) I am not posting in HTML. d) I am posting in English. e) I am fluent in English or I have attempted to have someone who is review my post. f) I have trimmed the previous post down to just the point(s) I am replying to. g) I have run my request through my spell checking resources.

Re: [asterisk-users] Sending Calls via SIP trunk from two different IP addresses from same Asterisk Machine
If your provider has two different IP addresses at its endpoint, you could use iproute2 (source based routing) with two local source addresses to make sure that there is a one-to-one mapping of source address to destination address. Then you could have two peer definitions and an address=declaration in each. As I think about it, I believe that with iproute2, you could use one provider endpoint address and two local addresses in the same manner, without the one-to-one mapping... This seems like the most elegant solution in my mind. And the only one that will work reliably... :) --Dave snip If that code in the below link worked, will I be able to have two SIP (IP Trunk), both send for same destination IP:Port, but from different source IP's?

Re: [asterisk-users] VoIP over satellite internet
snip ...routing via satellite adds about a quarter second of latency to the path. Is that too much? /snip Eric, I believe that you are mistaken. Routing via satellite adds about a quarter second of latency PER TRIP from earth to orbit. This is simply due to the distance a satellite is from the ground and the speed of light (interference not withstanding). Traceroutes and pings to satellite providers can be misleading because they cache some content on the birds in order to decrease latency. As I recall they even intercept some pings to accomplish the same. A *real* round trip for a VOIP call and/or non-interfered TCP connection would look like this: 1. Your device up to the bird (~250ms) 2. The bird back to the ground (~250ms) 3. The ground station out to the internet (~Nms) 4. The internet back to the ground station (~Nms) 5. The ground station back to the bird (~250ms) 6. The bird back to your device (~250ms) As you can see, even the one way udp stream will take approximately 500ms beyond any latency introduced by things such as your wireless network and the internet. VOIP over satellite, as Josh indicated, will be painful. You'll be talking all over one another due to the delay assuming that the stream can even be sustained with that much latency. -Dave ___ -- 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] VoIP over satellite internet
snipOf course, that's assuming your satellite is in geosynchronous orbit. If It's in LEO.../snip Singer, You are of course correct, low earth orbit will have lower latency.

Both servers are on public internet IPs. Whilst the client migration happens, I want to divert all the Register traffic from Server A to Server B to catch any clients still left out there. Unfortunately, the original Clients were configured with static IPs instead of DNS names for the SIP Registrar, so I have to proxy Server A until all the clients have been updated (which might be a long time). Obviously A*k itself wont do this (as far as I know). I've looked at siproxyd and party-sip, but with no success so far. I've also tried using IPtables to redirect at the IP level, but the public IP ranges seem to stop me from achieving this. It works in my local-lan testing, but not on the public servers. Any ideas?

Re: [asterisk-users] Suddenly the voice became garbage(likerobot)using Asterisk 1.4.19.2
Danny, Just out of curiosity, can you elaborate? Anything in use for asterisk should be in cache by the time it's needed for a SIP stream. And nothing related to a SIP stream should ever be read directly from the disk... Unless I'm mistaken. Thanks Dave snip Since this is internal SIP, I'd probably vote for a memory leak, bandwidth problem or hardware hiccup. I've had a similar situation when a grep caused pounding of a bad disk sector. /snip ___ -- 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] Removing line 2 from CISCO 7940g
Mike, 1. Remove the 'line 2' entries completely from the SEPXX.XML file. 2. Change the 'Version' tag in the SEPXX.XML file. You need only change one digit; I usually just increment the last digit. (version1.0.0.0-9/version). 3. Restart the phone (Settings - **#**). 4. This should do it. If it doesn't, proceed to step 5 with caution. 5. If the line still appears, reset the phone to factory defaults (Hold # while booting, then dial 123456789*0# when the line lights flash amber back and forth). DO NOT RESET TO FACTORY DEFAULTS IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE TFTP SERVER SETUP WITH THE FIRMWARE IMAGES.

This may be a stupid question, but IS THERE a message waiting against your PSTN lines? -Dave -Original Message- From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Mike Sent: Tuesday, August 04, 2009 1:33 PM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: [asterisk-users] Message Waiting Indicator on DAHDI line Folks, I have recently installed Asterisk 1.6.1.1. I have two PSTN lines connected to a TDM400 and two VoIP lines using SIP. I have a CISCO 7940 using SIP as my desk phone. Calling any of the four lines should ring the desk phone. This works fine, except that when ringing the PSTN lines, it activates the MWI on the 7940. I can see this happening on the console: [Aug 4 16:48:47] NOTICE[2964]: chan_dahdi.c:7669 ss_thread: MWI: Channel 3 message waiting! Looking at the offending piece of code, it seems to suggest from the comment that it is getting the MWI from the CLID. /* If the CID had Message waiting payload, assume that this for MWI only and hangup the call */ if (flags CID_MSGWAITING) { ast_log(LOG_NOTICE, MWI: Channel %d message waiting!\n, p-channel); notify_message(p-mailbox, 1); /* If generated using Ring Pulse Alert, then ring has been answered as a call and needs to be hungup */ if (p-mwimonitor_rpas) { ast_hangup(chan); return NULL; } } I have set usecallerid=no on both interfaces and globally but I still cannot get it to stop. I have failed to turn anything up on Google regarding this. Does anyone have any suggestions please?

Re: [asterisk-users] Monitoring Asterisk uptime
How about a shell script on the monitoring server: #!/bin/sh trunk=`ssh aster...@astbox asterisk -r -x 'sip show registry' | grep USERNAME` state=`echo $trunk | awk '{print $4}' if state is 'Registered', yay! else, UHOH! EOF Based on that ssh/shell script framework (you'd obviously need host keys to do this without user interation), you should be able to poll any linux server for really anything you want. Someone who is in the business of selling hosted applications should be able to EASILY use awk and grep to figure out if his sip trunks are in the 'Registered' state via SSH...

Re: [asterisk-users] Cisco 7960 Multiline phone
Jimmy, To clarify, you want to configure the phones like this where p means phone and l means logical line: Phone 1: P1l1 P1l2 P1l3 Phone 2: P2l1 P2l2 P2l3 Phone 3: P3l1 P3l2 P3l3 It sounds like (and looks like) you're dialing all of the extensions on one phone at the same time, which is why they're ringing and ringing. What you want to do is place the extensions for line 1 of each phone (p1l1,p2l1,p3l1) in the dial command to ring them simultaneously. asterisk will then fail through if none of the phones answer in time. -Dave From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Jimmy Ezell Sent: Tuesday, August 11, 2009 3:05 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Cisco 7960 Multiline phone Thanks for the help, I really appreciate the feedback.

If you're installing from source, you'll need to recompile, adding SSL support to the configure options. If you're installing from a package, there's likely another package that you need to install for SSL support (e.g. in Ubuntu, you need to install either libcurl4-gnutls-dev or libcurl4-openssl-dev). Thank you very much for your help Tilghman. But I have one more question here. After I install libcurl4-openssl-dev, do I have to do some configurations about it?

As such, the VPN tunnel will be disconnected and reconnected.

Fail-over routers have to wait some criteria are met in order to fail over (ping latency, ping loss, etc). This means that the connection you're using as the 'default' WILL go 'down' BEFORE it switches to the other one, regardless of the criteria used. Another plan would be to set up two routers at the site with two separate VPN tunnels across the two different links, both tunnels being always on. You could then use a SIP proxy or iptables magic to choose which tunnel was the best at any given time. I would go for the wifi. Maybe because I want to do a long-shot link.
