Re: [asterisk-users] Dial script
Thomas, Yes you can do this. I actually have done this and run it as a service under the name Meetmecall. I use MSN as the user interface to record the message, create phone lists of the numbers that has to be called and to actually schedule and perform the delivery. It is possible to use it for spam but the customers I have use it to notify, remember, offer or let the callee know about something relevant, but always as part of an already existing relation. With some extra parameters used, you can start a groupcall and use all the other Asterisk magic available like doing a questionarry using a smart IVR etc. etc. I can think about a long list of useful use of this service. I have no idea about the rules and legislation in other countries but in Holland you will end up with serious trouble and extreme high penalties to pay if you actually use it for spamming. I will not send you a copy of the solution but it is based on the use of call files pointing to local channels/extensions where the Asterisk magic is combined in a working (and I think clever) way. The CDR isn't perfect but disable and enable CDR at the proper points in the dial plan and clever use of the USERFIELD variable will result in useable data for billing the users. The CDR shows that most callees, listen to the message until it ends and yes, sometime there are complaints about the use but that is very rare. About the scheduling of the calls to make. It is not Asterisk that limits you. Far before reaching the limits of Asterisk it will be the bandwidth available and the SIP trunk provider that normally doesn't allow an endless number of concurrent calls. When I started this I was working for a Norwegian company offering the dial tone on the internet and I had a server almost directly connected to the backbone of internet with more or less endless bandwidth. I did some stress testing of a call center solution and 80 concurrent calls wasn't a problem and my guess is that you can far beyond 80 calls. It is wise to move the call files one after the other or one batch after the other. Moving large numbers of call files into /var/spool/asterisk/ outgoing might sometimes result in unexpected and not intended results. There are other scenarios but this was my choice. 10.000 calls will take some time but with a 30 seconds message, 20 concurrent calls and 10 seconds average to dial after around 5,5 hours the last phone call will be dialed. If the message is just 15 seconds it will take around 3,5 hours. If you want to deliver in short time, like 10 minutes, you really have to scale up to 420 concurrent calls which doesn't sound doable unless you have real serious budgets. If you put everything in place at your side you will probably run into constraints of the SIP provider and the interconnection to the pstn. btw: Asterisk has the potential to build lots of evil features and lots of standard features can be used in an evil way. Personally I think it is kind of strange that, if a question is asked, one has to explain why the answer is not mend for evil use. We don't have to help someone out and we can refuse because of lots of reasons: no time, not an interesting question, not a single sign of any effort by the one asking the question, not willing to give something away that costs lots of time and energy, the feeling that it will be used in an evil way etc. etc. I think the tone and the content of this discussion harms the Asterisk community as a whole. with friendly regards, Erik de Wild Tripple-o: your asterisk migration partner the Netherlands On 6 feb 2010, at 03:54, Thomas Perron wrote: Does anyone have a Dial script or a hint on how I can dial 1 numbers in sequence?

Hi, The 'i' extension only works in applications like Background(), WaitExten() and everything that uses DTMF to route extensions within a context. As you can see in your call, it won't work directly because asterisk by default will reject a call that doesn't match in the context or included contexts you defined for the user. Because the call is not accepted there's no need for a hangup (in a SIP environment). If you want to explicitly hangup calls using the dialplan, for your case add a one-digit catch all and leave your good calls with a 2-digit minimum: exten = _X,1,NoOP(sorry, extension doesnt exist) ; all 1 digits exten exten = _X,n,Hangup exten = _XX.,1,Goto(s,1); accept exten LEN 1 numeric That will be enough to hangup what you want to, adjusting it to your needs.

using mixmonitor might not be such a good idea. afaik the mixing of the recordings of the two channels starts after ending the call causing a high cpu load. if you have recordings going on all the time moving the 2 files that has to be mixed to a dedicated mixing server might be a good idea. after mixing it should be stored in a retrievable way.

In the IP world it means that both media (RTP) and signalling must pass through asterisk, and in the E1/T1 digital or analog world it means that the call must be bridged through asterisk. A simple dialplan would explain it: exten = s,1,Answer() ;Asterisk receives the call, from the lecagy PBX or from the external link (this should be two different contexts) exten = s,n,MixMonitor(blah) ; Records the conversation, exten = s,n,Dial(Tech/peer/number...,30,rtTwhatever) ; and sends the call back to the legacy PBX or to an external link If you want to record 100% calls, you would have to route every call through asterisk, even internal PBX calls. Even if you want to tap your legacy PBX to a non-asterisk recording server like the ones suggested before in this thread, the calls must go through a link to make tapping possible and you should seek an alternate solution to the internal calls within your legacy PBX. The beauty of asterisk and open source IP-PBXs relies on the native recording capabilities which makes things really easy.

Re: [asterisk-users] T1 TE121 cable connected to a TN2464BP AVAYA card
Not an answer to your question but maybe helpfull. If you use pri to connect two servers you might prefer the European way ( E1 ) instead of T1 because it will offer you 7 extra channels. As far as I know most pri cards support both. Be aware of the role each card has to play: one the telco role and the other the enduser role.

Re: [asterisk-users] cepstral vs festival (MRCP)
John: However, that doesn't mean that it shouldn't be implemented. This is an area in which I think there is a disproportionate amount of non- discussion, since many people who would use or be interested in MRCP simply don't participate in the Asterisk project because it doesn't meet their needs out of the gate. Therefore, we see few people asking for it, in a self-fulfilling loop. Is MRCP something that is significantly lacking in Asterisk? Is it a difficult protocol to implement? Is there anyone here on -dev with the experience to do it? I don't know whether it's significantly lacking nor how difficult it is to implement, but it's certainly nice to have. It would increase the appeal of Asterisk to those used to working with MRCP-compatible resources in other platforms. That said, it can be argued that it's best to keep Asterisk simple and free of extra features. If its core purpose does not consist of interfacing with ASR and TTS engines, then some would argue that it's best to keep such features to a separate platform.

Re: [asterisk-users] cepstral vs festival
Festival sucks. Cepstral sucks less. The End. In my experience, it depends on the specific app, who's paying, and who's going to be the victim, err...user listening to it. This is the difference between domain/context specific phrases/words to pronounce vs. general stuff, a client on a tight budget or not, the users being internal vs. customers/public, and so on. Cepstral is a $30 TTS engine. It's not too bad, but you'll find mostly things like Realspeak deployed in large scale professional deployments, such as those used by the big boys, telcos/banks/airlines. We deployed Cepstral recently for a client, for a phone-in service used by the general public, and I can tell you that there was quite a bit of work in teaching it with SSML how to pronounce stuff. Again, it really depends on your specific situation. You should definitely try out those two at least and also ensure that the client/stakeholders are aware of limitations. There's a certain expectation of it will speak perfectly these days, followed by disappointment and blame when reality hits them.

Re: [asterisk-users] cepstral vs festival
Erik - Have you found RealSpeak to be worth the cost? Actually my last note was probably a bit misleading because in the particular cases I mentioned RealSpeak, the platform wasn't Asterisk and Cepstral wasn't even on the radar. Can Cepstral, with the hourly $ spent on tuning, be made to be a reasonable substitute? Nuance would say no :) I'd say maybe. Call up +14164854854, it's a recent project we did for a client using Asterisk, Cepstral, and a lot of custom code. It's a free phone-in service that allows folks to get local traffic, weather, news, commuter transit, border crossing wait times, and more. There's obviously quite a bit of domain-specific, dynamic, constantly changing text, so this is certainly an example of pushing it to the max. Just think of all the street names it has the potential to mispronounce. It's a work in progress, but it's very promising. Definitely an example of a lot of hourly $ spent on tuning as you put it. My results: The RealSpeak sample was more clear than the Cepstral. Depends on what you mean by more clear. As Brent Davidson mentions, make sure you're comparing 8khz to 8khz, or similar. If you mean it pronounces things better, then I agree. That being said, I'd really be interested in hearing if anyone has done a RealSpeak-to-Asterisk conduit. I wasn't able to quickly uncover how they interact with third-party systems - is it VoIP? A C library? Some sort of HTTP socket? The more methods we can get working with Asterisk, the better, because not every implementation of a voice system has the same requirements... MRCP is the standard for interfacing with ASR and TTS engines (including RealSpeak) in other platforms. Brief Googling reveals a previous flame war on asterisk-dev regarding MRCP. I have no idea if it's implemented in Asterisk now.

I've wanted to get it set up for several months now, but haven't been able to due to lack of play time in my work schedule. -Erik ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
[asterisk-users] First-time queue app: verifying human member?
Good evening all - for the first time, I'm implementing my first-ever queue in asterisk. Overall, it's a pretty simple setup, 4 static members, very low call volume, etc. The one thing that has stumped me so far, though, is the following... This is a queue I'm setting up for contacting our IT support staff off-hours. As such, I've just added the cell phone numbers of our staff as members. I'd like to somehow verify that it's an actual human answering the phone when a member is dialed and not their mobile phone's voicemail. Is that possible? I'd envision just requesting that the member press 1 or something to accept the call. I currently have the timeout in queues.conf set low enough so that the call will never automatically roll over to that member's mobile voicemail, but I can't guaranty that the staff member won't just hit Ignore on their phone and send it directly to voicemail. Ideas? Thanks! -Erik -- Erik Anderson http://andersonfam.org ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk Openfire Asterisk-IM Plugin Performance Observation
On Fri, Jun 20, 2008 at 12:47 PM, JR Richardson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: So now the PBX is over 1.2 Gig for the installation. Typical PBX installs are under 600 Meg. This makes me wonder about server stability, reliability and performance as uptime creeps on and user count increases over 50 to 100+. Increased data on the hard drive won't really have an affect on reliability or performance. Can anyone give me feedback on real world experience with this type of setup and any performance issues that my arise? I can't speak directly to the asterisk + openfire situation. I can, however, say that I've been running openfire for nearly a year now on a very highly-loaded server (other than openfire, it's running nagios and cacti, monitoring about 300 devices around our network) - the load average on this 5-year single processor old dell server is pegged near 1.00 24x7. I haven't had a single problem with openfire, and I have between 50 and 100 open sessions at any one time. In the year that I've been running openfire, I've only had to restart it once, and that was to upgrade the software. It takes very little CPU, and a modest amount of RAM. Is it better for production to run Openfire on a separate server than the PBX? What's your definition of better. Is it better to not have all your eggs in one basket? Is it better to only need to purchase one server? Is it better to only have one server to manage/update/etc versus two? My biggest concern is deploying a 100+ user environment with high call volume and high chat volume. Java seems to be a bit resource hungry with the user notifications and call pop ups. I would hate to have the IM server walking over Asterisk and affecting call quality or PBX stability. Speaking personally, I'd have no problems putting openfire and asterisk on the same box. If needed, you could even just nice the openfire process down to a lower priority than asterisk - it's not as latency-sensitive as asterisk is. I'd doubt you'll need to do that, though. -Erik ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

[asterisk-users] using gtalk received instant messages in the dialplan
I have been doing some reading about gtalk and asterisk. Most of it is pointed to enable using gtalk for making phonecalls. Would it be possible to use gtalk instant messaging input (just some text send to the gtalk account configured on an asterisk box) into the dialplan. This way you could use gtalk im to trigger all kind of events like sending an sms, adding sip entries to the system, start conferences etc. etc. The basic question is: is it possible to store the received Gtalk message into a variable that can be used to trigger events in a dialplan (which isn't actually a dial plan anymore) or doesn't anything like that exists at this moment. Is this just a crazy thought or does the idea of triggering events in the dialplan via Gtalk im input make sense. I was thinking about a call with the im message as a variable in it starting a local channel that goes into the relevant part of the dialplan. examples: sms: Could you please call Mark 0612345678 for sending an sms sip_entry: 500 cdwtg_34$ ALAW snom320 for adding a sip entry to sip.conf with number 500 and password cdwtg_34$ for a snom320 conference: 0591234567 0201234567 0612345678: for setting up a conference between this numbers All the logic has to be in the dialplan or scripts but it all should start with receiving a message send by a gtalk client. My personal opinion is that it would make a great and easy to explain user interface that can be used from every pc and every pda or smartphone. ___ -- 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] nokia 770 has a build in mic, asterisk and iphone
was almost tempted to try it, but time was short at the time, and holding an N770 to my head seemed a bit silly.. (built in mic and speakers, but no socket for an external mic) Gordon I run Asterisk on a Nokia 770 and as a mini pbx it run pretty smooth. I used it, just for fun and demonstration, with a sip account and 4 concurrent sip calls were running smooth. For those just making and receiving phonecalls now and then it is a very useble pbx. a little bit off topic: The Nokia 770 has an internal mic. It is the little hole next to the hole for the power supply. It looks like a reset whole but it isn't and I'm afraid you will ruin the mic if you try to reset your Nokia 770 this way. With the Gizmo client for the Nokia 770 you can make (partly free) phonecalls and yes, you have to keep the Nokia 770 against your ear. about Asterisk and iPhone I run Asterisk on an iPhone too. It fascinates me to have Asterisk running on small devices like the Nokia 770 and the Iphone. It was running but it took almost 100 % of the cpu power, turning the Iphone into a device to keep your hands warm during cold days. Something most have gone wrong with building Asterisk . As soon as Asterisk is up and running it is actually the same as running it on a normal server. For using Asterisk as the device pbx (routing incoming calls, moh, queueing, transfer, voicemail etc.) I think there should also be a sip phone available that can be registered on the local Asterisk. The first sip phone (Fring) is a smart proof of concept but certainly not ready for normal use. With a sip phone available you can make outbound calls. sip phone - asterisk - sip provider - pstn-net And receive inbound calls the other way around. I'm very interested in using my iPhone as a sip phone with PBX functionalities but it seems not to be an easy task to make a stable sip phone for the iPhone with Apple trying everything to prevent this from happening. ___ -- 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] Dutch Asterisk mailing list?
What is the most reliable method for Asterisk to detect the Called ID for incoming calls on an analog line in the Netherlands? In Holland you have to pay to receive cid info on the incoming line. If you don't pay at the moment you can start with that. There are 2 ways for a provider to deliver the cid,ETSI en FSK. In Holland (with a couple of other countries) ETSI is used so if you have a phone that only supports FSK the CID will never work. I still have a couple of ETSI - FSK converters catching dust. So if you pay for CID but your phone doesn't support and you have a pot line connected to your Asterisk server I can provide you with a solution for a couple of EUR. If you use the proper card maybe you can adjust the settings so it supports ETSI instead of FSK. I used X100P cards and needed the convertor to get proper CID If the Dutch mailing list starts I will join ;-) Erik de Wild Tripple-o ___ -- 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

I'm guessing this is for just a few calls at a time, correct? I'd guess that rather than these quality issues being caused by cramped bandwidth, they're actually being caused by latency issues. Have you ever checked the latency of the connection between your asterisk server and your SIP/IAX endpoint? If it's really high (say 300ms+) or if the latency is really erratic, you'll have quality issues. You didn't mention whether you are doing traffic shaping on your upstream connection, so I'll assume you're not. That would be something good to look into - with traffic shaping, you can prioritize your VoIP traffic over all other types of network traffic. -erik ___ -- 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] Multiple Asterisk Servers. One Conference
On Wed, Feb 20, 2008 at 8:49 PM, Klaverstyn, David C [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I currently have about 10 Asterisk servers scattered around the place each hosting their own dynamic conference centre. Is there any way that when people join these conference centres on each server that somehow Asterisk bridges the conference centres on each server to form one large conference? In theory, this wouldn't be difficult at all. I'd imagine it could go something like this: set up one central conference server. Each branch server would call an extension (zap/sip/iax/whatever) on the main server, which in turn would dump it into a certain meetme room. Alternatively, you could have the central server call out to the branch servers and join them to the meetme room. In practice, though, I have no idea how the audio quality would be. -erik ___ -- 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

Any additional information would be greatly appreciated. Sure - I use the default HTB traffic scheduler. The number one tricky thing about traffic shaping that most people miss is that they don't set their uplink speed correctly. For 99% of the use cases out there, you have no control of your downlink speeds, so there's not a whole lot you can do for that - you really only have control of your uplink packets. So - do a bunch of speed tests and then set your uplink speed to about 80% of your max upload speed. That will ensure that there's always a bit of overhead and that your link itself will never be the uploade bottleneck. After doing this, just start classifying traffic. Here's a synopsis of the rules I use: - DNS - high priority - SIP - express priority - RTP - express priority - HTTP/https - bulk priority - (other p2p applications) - bulk priority Putting those rules in place should make a big difference. You can also specify a specific ethernet jack on the router that will get high priority if that would help in your setup.

Kind Regards, Erik I`m using several GXP2020 phones with newest Firmware 1.1.4.18. I had issues with phone locking up using 1.1.4.18. I've now gone to 1.1.4.22 and have eliminated that. Asterisk Version: 1.4.11. Me too. Still testing 1.4.13 on a non-production system. I use on every phone the 1 as local port and in the rtp.conf From my knowledge of IP I don't think this is a problem since the address/port would be unique. However the example config I originally had from Grandstream indicated that each phone should use a different port and recommended to use the random port option on the phones. I have since assigned the port number on each phone to 1 plus the extension number. This was done to create a unique port number and to help with troubleshooting when using Wireshark or tcpdump. I set this in the config file for each phone.

[asterisk-users] Grandstream GXP2020 + Asterisk 1.4.11
Hi, I`m using several GXP2020 phones with newest Firmware 1.1.4.18. Asterisk Version: 1.4.11. It happens several times that users complain that the caller cannot hear the transmitted voice from the phones Also now it happens quite often that callers on hold beeing dropped. Environment: ISDN with chan_misdn and SIP internal calls. No NAT no DNS name (only IPS configured). I configured in sip.conf and on the phone now that alaw is preferred. As I saw in the FMW Bug list that GSM is not a good option Also I set the canreinvite=no as it is also configured in a Grandstream manual. I use on every phone the 1 as local port and in the rtp.conf I allowed a range from 1 - 5. As far my SIP knowledge is up to date the local port has not to differ from phone to phone or I´m wrong? Any idea or useres which had the same problems and fixed it? My sip.conf: [test1] type=friend context=outgoing username=test1 secret=987454 qualify=yes host=dynamic nat=yes canreinvite=no disallow=all allow=alaw allow=ulaw callerid=Test 0 insecure=very Kind Regards, Erik ___ --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] Two PRI setup questions

Any help that you can provide would be greatly appreciated. 1) What switchtype should be configured in the zapata.conf file when ATT is using CUSTOM? My understanding is that this equates to the dms100 in Asterisk, is this right? The D channel is coming up just fine, but ATT tells me that they cannot see the B channels. When I try to make a call I get a slow busy and the debug shows an ISDN cause code of 34, no circuit available. 2) Is there a way to see the idle status of a B channel?

So then you have to spend more time debugging the conf files. Even with a bunch of pre-made templates it seems like an awful lot of unnecessary heavy lifting when a GUI can make it so much easier and efficient. This is *very* much a to each their own issue.

Probably another 30 for the dialplan and debugging. My point still stands - use what you're comfortable with. I spend the vast amount of my day working through an SSH console into various linux servers, so it would only make sense that for me (and many other CLI geeks), it doesn't make sense to use a GUI. I actually get a little put out when I have to switch over to my browser or another GUI tool to get things done. So - the CLI is what works for me.
