Every hints are welcome


There is no native Oracle driver available to my knowledge, but if you 
can install an ODBC driver for Oracle, Asterisk will happily use that.

Hi Murf, Jason,

I have been testing asterisk 1.4 with a view to deploying it in my
organisation and I am experiencing jittery voice prompts from the voice

plan.



What do you have installed, that will provide the 1Khz timing interrupts
you will need to function properly?


Actually, I doubt the timing source will be required if you only use 
playback or background commands with the supplied gsm prompts. We run 
lots of machines without it.


Timing sources are used for some cases of musiconhold, meetme and the 
likes, but not for regular stuff.


Jason, if you do a 'vmstat 1' on the unix prompt when a call is run, 
does it ever hit an idle count of 0 somewhere ? If so, you have 
performance issues, if not, you'd probably look toward the network, or 
perhaps a silly Voice Activation setting in your phone.


If possible, you could also try and look at a tcpdump capture of your 
traffic using wireshark to see if there is specific jitter or packetloss 
in the audiostream as it leaves the server.

Re: [asterisk-users] Dual Ringing Tones

2007-01-01 Thread Florian Overkamp

Hi guys,

Leo Ann Boon wrote:

I have a couple of interconnected asterisk boxes connected to several
providers.  With one provider in particular (ATP in Australia) there
are two ringing tones heard on outbound calls.  It is not the end of
the earth - I am not reselling our services yet - but it is strange
being that none of the other providers we are connected to exhibit
that behavior.
I think your provider is providing early media. Check your sip messages, 
look for 183 with SDP in the response from the provider.


Correct, early media is offered when this occurs. Solutions:

1) Add the 'r' parameter to dial, which causes asterisk to fake the 
ringing signal. You will lose early media in the process


2) Modify the Dial command like was done in BRIstuff so that the ringing 
is faked by Asterisk _only_ if the remote party indicated ringing too.


Or is there a more correct approach ?

Unfortunately I haven't yet had one in my hands, but from the

Especially being able to handle 4 SIP accounts/lines at one provider, 
being able to add more handsets to the basestation etc. would be of 
value for SOHO use.


I did notice the C450 is unable to use the flash-key for call transfer

We coupled an Asterisk box to a Samsung DCS a while back. We did it 
based on ISDN2 BRI lines, where Asterisk was the NT side. We did notice 
the DCS had some problems accepting different timing sources on 
different TE busses, causing some strange effects with callers in 
meetme-conferences. It worked fine for some time, but needed recycling 
every once in a while, so I would not recommend this approach unless you 
also have a good DCS technician with you :) Eventually we phased out the 
DCS and implemented IP-phones all over the office.


If you need a solid approach, perhaps you can place the *-machine in the 
path of the ISDN lines:


DCS - * - PSTN

This would avoid the timing issues we have seen.

a license for the client phone.  Cisco phones are sold pre-bundled with 
a license in their CH1 form.  If there is a CH1 or CCME attached

Cisco also offers spare versions of their phones, which do not have 
the CH1 or CCME annotation to the part number.  These are unlicensed 
phones.
 
Cisco phones do not currently ship with SIP firmware loaded.  In order 
to register your phone with Cisco and obtain a login for their TAC and

versions do not allow you registration with Cisco for access to firmware.


Point is, you do not really need a CH1 or CCME license, you are free to 
combine the Spare phone with a separate SIP license - the price is 
identical. It is NOT OK however to use a Spare phone without any 
license, as far as I am aware.

Its their opinion.  This generally cant be dont automagically and still
be MOS.  You can try to track frame drops and other things on your end
to rate call quality and try to come up with something, but that
technically isnt MOS.

AFAIK asterisk doesnt keep statistics of jitter, frame drops or anything
else, that might be a good project for someone to take on, especially if
you have multiple providers so you can rate quality in a more meaningful
way.  The human ear really isnt the best tool for much of this.


There are ways to guesstimate MOS scores on a call by continuously 
getting some decent statistics from the jitterbuffer. We've had an 
intern do some work on this using IAXclient.

yes and I suggested that however, MOS is an opinion, so its totally

supposed to be rated at (ideally the two would be intertwined).  


Technically you are right, but its difficult to communicate that in the 
market. Using 'accepted' methods like MOS (or variations thereof) makes 
discussions with other parties a lot easier.



The work that you have done so far is a great step towards a product
that many people might find useful.  In a nutshell the concept I am
thinking about is a tool that you drop onto your network and it will
monitor the data (presumably not just iax but sip, h.323, whatever) and
generate live stats of the call and possibly even have an alarm system
that would send off a page or something if conditions get too far from
'normal'.  


Yes, that would be excellent indeed. Problem is that the location of 
measurement will influence the scoring :) If you have good ideas towards 
this we'd be very interested in participating.

Things to consider:

- Extra servers are cheap - you could use LinuxHA to failover the server.

Using VLAN's (and more importantly, VLAN priority settings) will most definitely

When you IAX trunk a call from Asterisk A to Asterisk B, you can't

Correct, same applies for using 'switch' in your dialplan. Once the call

Only needed in NT mode in combination with ISDN phones that require 
power feeding. Doesn't seem nessecary in your case.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Junghanns, Germany ISDN settings

Hi Chris,

I've got a Junghanns QuadBRI card which I'm going to install on a system in

Anyone give me some tips on the Jumper settings?  I'm guessing it's going to
be NT mode with p2p?  I haven't used ISDN before.

I'm going to also put a Digium TDM400P card in there to plug the analog
phones into.

I'm just worried about the jumpers and modes.


It really depends what you will be hooking up to the asterisk box. If 
you are connecting to a telco's S0 bus you want the card to be in TE 
mode (Terminal Equipment). If you are using multiple ISDN lines that are 
coupled together as one bundle (ask the telco) you will probably neet to 
configure it as p2p. If all lines are singular, use p2mp.


If you will be connecting to a PBX, everything is dependant on how that 
PBX is configured.

Yes, assuming your telco allows you to. Be sure to figure out what 
number format is required in your case. Your telco can tell you. (Often 
this is the full DID without a leading 0)

Nope, but maybe you could separate the traffic in to different SIP peers.

2006-02-09 Thread Florian Overkamp

Hi Ronald,

Ronald Voermans wrote:

What exactly do you mean by seperating traffic in to differt SIP peers?

The situation is as follows:

I have OpenSer connected to our SIP provider/PSTN Provider (the answer
to your question: Enertel).


Ah 'kay.


Asterisk registers to OpenSer, which then forwards the call to PSTN.
Asterisk registers two numbers at OpenSer; one phonenumber and one
faxnumber. I also made two entries in sip.conf. However, the host=... Is
the same for both numbers. So incoming calls are always matched to one
(1) peer/entry in sip.conf. Hence the problem with negotiating the right
codec (g.729 for voice, g.711 for fax). 


Hrm, yes for inbound the problem is with the host=.. matching. Maybe 
Olle has a good suggestion on this :-P.


However, if you control the OpenSer yourself you could easily bind 
another IP, or perhaps use OpenSer rules to do the trick ?


Asterisk SIP stack doesn't seem suited for this type of traffic 
separation I guess...

What is the current registration time you accept on the servers ? 3600

shorter registration period. This will effectively deliver just as many 
REGISTER commands so it can be used for a reasonable test.


We've used 10 phones at a registration time of 1 second to 'emulate'
 1200 phones at a registration time of 120 seconds. This will ofcourse 
not emulate the call volume, only the REGISTRERs (and perhaps OPTIONs).

I need to do some investigation of bringing the tap count WELL above that... 
I'd like to see what kind of performance we can get with 128 MILLISECOND 
tail...  128 taps is only 16ms...  and 16ms of echo cancel is damn near 
useless, as it's fast enough that you'd likely not even hear the echo as 
anything more than a sidetone anyway.


I imagine it's deathly hard on the CPU though.  :-)


Actually, the problem is different. If you receive an echo on the PSTN 
gateway that has a 16ms echo, the problem would not be noticeable there, 
but if you then add a VoIP connection the delay added would make the 
echo audible.

Well, the problem is the difference between keeping under 16ms and

immediately. We used the sangoma echospike tools to measure the delay

Although the code is wanpipe, all the interaction is at the zaptel level, so
I am pretty sure it will work on Digium or other cards as well.

Just being able to see what the echo looks like on a troublesome line gives
quite a lot of info. You can see if the echo is delayed, or markedly
non-linear.

I haven't tried it as yet but plan to do so.

There have been a few issues especially related to the echotraining

[Asterisk-Users] app_queue on 1.2 ?

2005-12-07 Thread Florian Overkamp

Hi

We're trying to migrate our platform from 1.0 to 1.2 and we're seeing 
some oddness in app_queue.


We use local_channels a lot for things like persistent agents, 
call-forwarding on agents and such. Now on our 1.2 server we notice that 
the queue is listing all members as 'Invalid' (thus any caller will 
automatically fall out of the queue, no phones will ring) until we issue 
a reload manually:


After startup:

omega*CLI show queue queue1
queue1   has 0 calls (max unlimited) in 'ringall' strategy (0s 
holdtime), W:0, C:0, A:0, SL:0.0% within 0s

   Members:
  Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/n (Invalid) has taken no calls yet
  Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/n (Invalid) has taken no calls yet
  Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/n (Invalid) has taken no calls yet
  Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/n (Invalid) has taken no calls yet
  Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/n (Invalid) has taken no calls yet
  Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/n (Invalid) has taken no calls yet
  Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/n (Invalid) has taken no calls yet
   No Callers
omega*CLI

After we issue a reload:

omega*CLI show queue queue1
queue1   has 0 calls (max unlimited) in 'ringall' strategy (0s 
holdtime), W:0, C:0, A:0, SL:0.0% within 0s

  Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/n (Unknown) has taken no calls yet
  Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/n (Unknown) has taken no calls yet

I cannot find anything that explains this in the changelogs. I'd 
appreciate some comments on why this is, and how it can be fixed (other 
than completely redesigning the platform, which I do intend to do, but 
not just now yet)

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Bizarre Echo Problem

2005-10-17 Thread Florian Overkamp
Hi Mark,

Citeren Mark Edwards [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 to add some fuel to the fire, I was monitoring one of the agents last night.
 He made a call to a target and then had to call them straight back to
 confirm some information.

 The first call was as echoey as the inside of a cathedral.
 The second (next) call was as clear as a bell.

Although I did not follow your thread from the start, I can confirm there are
significant differences in zap-channel inbound versus outbound
echocancellation, i.e. the direction of initiation of the call is important.

As far as our tracing went, the echo-cancellation itself was properly activated
on the channel, but the exact moment of canceller-training may not be perfect.
Think of when training can occur _before_ the entire call-path is up and
active. This would mean the training is infact useless and may even be
increasing problems.

We have been managing the issue via implementation of a small loss-plan and some
mods to chan_zap, although I need to see with our developers on how that was
done precisely.

Best regards,
Florian

No that's not true. I myself would be perfectly happy with an MPL. 
However, because Asterisk is available under a GPL formed license, any

Cisco phones work fine using SIP, good reports have also been seen with 
SCCP/Skinny, although my own experience on that is limited. We use 
SwissVoice a lot and others have reported great success with Polycom.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] slight echo via sip provider

2005-09-14 Thread Florian Overkamp

Hi,

Damon Estep wrote:
Here is the setup; analog phone  Linksys ata  asterisk  sip 
provider sonus GSX 9000  PSTN  called party.


The caller on the analog phone connected to the ATA hears no echo at all.

The called party has a slight echo of their voice.

All of the Zapata.conf echotraining, echocancel, etc do not seem to 
apply here as there is no zap channel involved in the call.


Correct.

I assume that since the echo is toward the called party who is on the 
other side of the provider sonus softswitch and somewhere on the PSTN, 
that the echo is really coming from the providers media gateway/softswitch.


This is possible, but not really likely. Most decent service providers 
use digital equipment and would (should) not introduct additional echo 
on their end.


However, it is very well possible that your Linksys ATA and the 
connected analog phone are causing the echo. I'm not sure about the 
capabilities of the Linksys, but with Sipura's you can modify the line 
impedance settings to best match your equipment.


Look for the Regional Tab at the top. There is a setting called FXS Port 
Impedance. Try various options in there - they should match your phone.

You could use a goto to exit the AGI script first and jump to a fax

Why don't you use WiFi VoIP phones like ZyXEL 2000W (which is not such

Because if you have a network of DECT (maybe even GAP) repeaters, why 
should you invest in a new WIFI network ?


Besides that, in most WIFI  basestations and handsets things like

I have been reading with great interest the posts on trouble shooting 
echo cancellation with *.  Is it just coincidence that all of this 
discussion has been with analog lines.  Are PRI's susceptible to echo 
problem like POTS lines.





Keep reading. Echo _can_ occur whenever a two-wire circuit is converted to
a four-wire circuit (eg, hybrid involved). There is no way for you to identify
where (in a pstn call) that might occur even with a PRI. You could have 
a PRI (four-wire) leaving your facility, but the telco (or another pstn

customer) may have a hybrid involved in that end-to-end call.


Very nice summary post. One thing to remember: If your side of the call 
is hearing an echo, it is being caused somewhere on the other side.


Also, there are two kinds of echo. Hybrid echo, which has now been 
discussed, and accoustic echo. Any echo can be batteld best at the place 
where it is caused, and this is especially true for accoustic echo. With 
accoustic echo, see if the source device (handset, speakerphone, ...) 
can be tuned properly (echocancellation settings, echosuppression or 
maybe just lowering the volume a bit).


Also note: An echo becomes more and more problematic as the round-trip 
delay time increases.

This is very much dependant on how your dialplan works. We use 
normalisation for each account so the system doesn't have to worry about 
many different dialling formats (i.e. with or without areacode, and 
such). You can use a similar strategy for all your internal numbers as well.

We have been suggesting that people implement this sort of thing by

By using the dialplan, you can use any method you wish to decide that

Hi,

this is a viable option, I have actually defined persistent agents in 
older asterisk versions with that strategy. It does seem to have 
considerable effects on the logging of the calls though, so if queue

Hi, 

 -Original Message-
 So I won one of these on ebay, in the auction it says it has the RJ45
 ports on it but it doesn't :(
 
 If I were to get an analog adapter would I be able to use the video
 portion of this or am I SOL? The auction requires me to pay for
 shipping back, so I end up losing money unless I sell it on my own.
 
 Or has anyone hacked these to work on enet?

The Vizufon is a 21st century video-over-analog desk telephone that offers
the best performance and the lowest cost for a video telephone anywhere in
Detailed entry

And later on:

Network - PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) RJ11, Transmission
speed(max) : 33.6Kbps(V.34 bis), Communication mode: Synchronous access

This leads me to believe this phone is actually a completely analogue device
that performs modem signalling to transfer video. At 33.6Kbps you can forget
about using that over a VoIP ATA.

So if you bought this under the impression it was an Ethernet SIP device of
some sort, you may have been misinformed. Sorry...

 So, that's a start, I guess ;)

 extensions.conf contains:

 I'm sure I'm missing a vital config option elsewhere...

Try: 

exten = _X.,1,Dial(SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED])

The '.' is a wildcard match of unknown length. With your pattern you only
accept extensions of 1 digit long.

It is very much dependant on what type of line (analog, T1, E1) you have and
what your telco allows you to do, so ask your telco.

In many of our setups, it is required that callerid's are sent in a specific
format, the national number without leading 0 to be exact. Similar
requirements may apply to your setup.

Talk to your telco.

On a pure TDM path this should be fine. In fact I think you should not have

Using VoIP in parts of the link does limit the connection, although we have

 Thanks, but it isn't an option because the Telco is actually 
 connected to
 a PBX which is connected to Asterisk which should act as a intelligent
 answering device during non-office hours. The PBX isn't 
 capable of doing
 this. Any other option?

Hmm, this is a bit of a hack, but it might suit your needs:

- Make sure each of those lines goes into a different extension or context
- Add a delay on each line, like this:

exten = line1,1,Do stuff

exten = line2,1,Wait(2)
exten = line2,1,Do stuff

exten = line3,1,Wait(4)
exten = line3,1,Do stuff

exten = line4,1,Wait(6)
exten = line4,1,Do stuff

Could this help your case ?

Florian

RE: [Asterisk-Users] ENUM NL dead ?

2005-06-07 Thread Florian Overkamp
Hi Michiel, 

 -Original Message-
 I been searching on the wiki and google for ENUM in NL.
 All I could find were some docs from the Dutch Financial
 Department about taskforces and plans. But it all links to
 dead pages and no-longer-connected phone numbers.
 Is there anyone who knows some more about Dutch ENUM stuff ?
 If it's all dead, anyone interested in setting it up
 together with me ?

We have been trying to get it alive but have been unable to do so just by
ourselves. Some cooperation with the dutch government (dgtp) and domain
registry (sidn) will be required. Care to join forces ?

RE: [Asterisk-Users] 4 port BRI options ?

2005-06-03 Thread Florian Overkamp
Hi Remco, 

 -Original Message-
 I am thinking of another solution for fax. I have an * box 
 with one PRI 
 card and I'm thinking of adding a quad BRI card in the same box.
 
 A separate box running fasx server software will also be 
 equipped with a 
 BRI card for faxing (I cannot use spandsp for various 
 reasons, one of them 
 being that we must log / register all faxes).
 
 By keeping the path all digital I'm hoping to avoid trouble with echo 
 (cancellation), interrupted faxes etc.
 
 Anyone have an idea on this?

It should be possible that way. A few caveats:

- Gain settings (also on your PRI/BRI lines) are crucial for faxing - set it
too loud and the handshake will fail, set it too soft and the fax will fail
after a certain amount of time. Quality of ATA's is also very important with
this.

- Make sure your box has enough horsepower to cover all the interrupts!

With ASTTAPI you can see events for your own phone too.

Take a look at this client:

Hi, 

 -Original Message-
 What do you mean With ASTTAPI you can see events for your 
 own phone too.

As opposed to having something message you from the dialplan you can make
use of the manager events, that's the point I was trying to make.

 I already have astapi installed .. Have you tried call alert? 
 Does it work
 as promised?

Yes, it works as promised in my setup.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] CallerID

2005-05-22 Thread Florian Overkamp
Hi, 

 -Original Message-
 I just tried call alert but something is wrong.. For each 
 call I get I see 2
 or 3 events on the callerid.. The first is the actual number 
 that dialed me,
 then 1 or 2 entries of my own number.
 
 Seems astapi or call alert is recognizing my own number is if I called
 myself on each call.
 
 Is this an astapi issue, misconfiguration on my side or call 
 alert problem? 

This can be a dialplan issue or a call-alert issue. It is higly dependant on
which channel you are monitoring and the way callerid is handled throughout
your dialplan. I have seen similar things when using TAPIrex instead of
Call-Alert. The TAPI messaging layer allows you to peek into a lot of
environment things of the call, including the CALLERID and the CALLEDID
(subtle difference ;).

Hi, 

 -Original Message-
 All of the stuff I've googled for and read on wiki all relate 
 to Outlook.
 Has anyone been successful in getting Outlook Express to do 
 click to dial?

I don't think Outlook Express has any support for that kind of thing at all.
No TAPI hooks in there at least as far as I can tell.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] BRI and PRI together possible?

2005-05-10 Thread Florian Overkamp
Hi, 

 -Original Message-
 I tried it first with the bristuff drivers from Junghanns. 
 The BRI card
 worked fine alone, but as soon as I load the zaptel driver for the 
 TE110P the BRI card says, that the port is down.

 Is there any stable way, or as someone experience with this 
 two cards in one
 box?

Yes it can be done (at least with 'real' Junghanns QuadBRI cards, I don't
know about the BN card, but I suppose it should work).

One thing to note is the way in which modules are loaded. Make sure you
don't use modprobe in this scenario, but insmod. This is because with
modprobe ztcfg is run after loading the first driver module. This can cause
some problems. So insmod all modules, then run ztcfg manually (or from your
own script).

 It is also possible with the Eicon DIVA Server cards (BRI, 
 4BRI and PRI).

The DIVA Server cards don't use Zaptel, they have to use the CAPI driver,
ISDN4Linux or mISDN. I'm not sure if that would work.

 http://www.vocera.com/products/documentation.shtm
  
 Anyone have any experience with this?  If these things could 
 speak SIP and were half way decent I could see some real 
 value, even if they are kinda startrekkie

Yeah, the concept is interesting. However:

- You need the application server to do the actual voice recognition (they
supply software/hardware for that)
- It was not suited for anything other than US English last time I asked
them about it

Its not cheap either :)

Any chance you will share the mrtg setup you used for that ? How did you
