Re: [asterisk-users] Am I being hacked?
They are sending requests from his own public ip huh? Trade secrets H, IPTaibles, Fail2Ban (as a preventative), there is something I am missing What the f is it called again? Oh yeah Pike!!! alwaysauthreject = yes I don't know about that However, using the mac address of the device as the `sipbuddies.name`, and having `sipbuddies.secret` other than `12345a` ;), I would say yes too. One of Asterisk's dirty little secrets is that it does not show the source IP when a device or hacker tries sending a call without registering. The rejection message in the logs do not show the IP of the attacker. Yes it sucks, yes it has been that way for many many years. Does not good if the address is spoofed as it seems is the case here.

[asterisk-users] SIP Trunking Mantra (Origination)
Hello Everyone, We are currently having talks with various service providers, and trying to determine what the best way is to interconnect in order to have access to the PSTN network. As you know there are two ways of doing this: Traditional PRI: Have trunks grouped into a transport layer such as OC3/12. With DIDs attached to the group. As you many know, this approach would also require a POP near the CO of the exchange we want to service etc.. We could also have the service provider backhaul some of the NXX in areas we do not have a POP, to a location near by. SIP Trunking: SIP traffic coming through the end of transport layer such as OC3 or ethernet connection directly connected to the service provider, with DID that can come from anywhere. No need for a POP in Chicago, for example, when we are located in Kansas. The benefits of one over the other are known, and not the topic of this message. What we are trying to determine are: When talking market price, a virtual PRI/SIP Trunk interconnect costs about 500-550 per 24 channel virtual pri. This compared to a true ISDN/PRI which can costs between 200-500 dollars depending who you talk to. We also have to take into consideration the hardware needed for either setup i.e.: * Option 1: SIP Proxy * Option 2: media gatweays, multiplexers, media server Even though it was natural to talk about pricing, this is still not what we are interested in knowing. What we are interested in finding out is: * How are service providers that offer virtual pris interconnected with their suppliers? I would imagine that some (non-CLECS), are renting a connection from the LECs, and grouping PRI/ISDN trunks (option 2). And others (CLECS), have a A-Link/ISUP trunk interconnect to the CO. - Which brings up a second question. How does a PRI trunk group differ from an ISUP trunk. I don't know much about and ISUP trunks and would *really* appreciate having someone educate us on (i) the concept, (ii) what type of equipment would be needed, (iii) how it differs from ISDN trunk groups. (iv) is it only available for LECS I do have more questions, however for the sake of brevity will stop right here. And before anyone asks the it depends what you want to do, I will mention that we are trying to establish an interconnection that will sustain 2016 channels or 84 T1s, and 5000 DIDs. We are not trying to become a CLEC however, still feel that option 2 would be the better choice for reasons covered here, and some that are left implicit (i.e, quality, reliability of managing our own networks..). Your insights are greatly appreciated! Nick. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] PCI Passthrough of T1 cards
Hello James, Thank you so much for your response. I should have chose my words carefully. PCI pass-through in terms of virtualization of devices and it's draw back are well know. I was leaning more towards near host performance virtualization using SR-IOV. This moves emphasis back to the production drivers of the interface card using virtual functions etc., and can provide near host performance. Rephrasing my question, are any of the T1 pci manufactures providing support for virtualization using SR-IOV and virutal functions?

Re: [asterisk-users] ILEC Interconnect: Basic MUX: M13 vs DCS: VT1.5 vs DS3
Hello Brian, Thank you so much On 6/12/13, Brian LaVallee b.laval...@globaltank.jp wrote: Hi Nick, Going from DS1 to OC-n is a multi-step process. Typically requiring a hardware device to handle each MUX step. But you can find hardware that handles multiple MUX steps together. The connection is coming into our premise on the OC-n transport. The question now is should we have it multiplexed as DS1 or VT1.5s to the DS3s. What is common today, I think DS1 VT1.5s mappings are more flexible? VT1.5 is just a raw OC-n channel containing a single DS1. An M13 device converts between DS3 and DS1. Understood!!! A DACS (DCS or DXC) provides M13 conversion, sometimes even capable of extracting the raw VT1.5 signal directly to DS1. The ILEC transport option you choose really depends on the terminating interface. Do you want to connect with a DS3 or OC-n? The transport is coming in as OC-n. What I am trying to figure out are the advantages of mapping the STS-1 using DS1s or VT1.5s. No matter what hardware you choose, you will need to convert to single copper pairs (DS1/T1) to connect to your Asterisk boxes. So an M13 or DCS will be necessary to reach the DS1 level. The device you choose depends on budget and growth expectations. Typically a DCS is an expensive investment, handling hundreds of DS3's. An M13 device is typically a small unit that handles one or two DS3's. This is almost understood. Is an M13 device basically a MUX (In our case STS-1-DS1)? From there we would plug the signaling into the Quad Digiums as you mentioned (this is where I get more comfortable). Could you kindly post a link to an entry level DCS with OC-n interfacing and M13s being used today. That way I can see what functionality each provides and determine which better suits our need. I am guessing, but hate to presume: M13: Adtran MX2800 DCS: Mediant 3000, Metaswitch 0610 etc.. The advantage comes when you add the 29th DS1. With VT1.5 it's just adding a single channel, DS3 will require another whole DS3 to get an additional DS1. This is why we are going SONET. It's a new transport layer for me compared to DS3s, and want to make sure I can put everything together at the network level.

[asterisk-users] ILEC Interconnect
Hello Everyone, We are looking to interconnect with a local ILEC over an OC-n transport layer. They basically gave us two options in terms of mapping the SONET to the DS3: * VT1.5s mapping * DS1s mapping The second option is quite clear. We would MUX the connection, and plug the lines into qaud t1 cads etc... The tech mentioned that with the second option we would also need a DACS to convert back to M13 mapping. I was scared to tell him that I could not follow can someone explain that to me kindly :). I don't know much about VT1.5 mapping. Can someone kindly explain what the benefits or lack of are in choosing that option. Also what type of additional equipment we would need? In case I have overlooked something, can you gents please tell me what I will need in terms of hardware in both cases (minus routers and switches). What we are looking at is: CO | | | OC-n | v DS3 MUX | | v 21 Asterisk boxes with quad T1s Kind Regards, Nick. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

[asterisk-users] Implementing G729 Passthrough - VM recordings, maybe even a2billing
We would like implement G729 passthrough for our calls and get rid of the encoding overhead, and a little confused as to how to do this, and some unanswered questions. Do we need the open source G729? If so, do we still need the patent license. Not so much of an issue, just checking. Finally, a recent howto of how to enforce pci passthrough and disable encoding would be greatly appreciated. Oh, and there is also the issue with VM recordings, message etc.. On a slightly unrelated, we are using a2billing on some of our machines, and I think that we would have to convert that media from slink to G729 if not done so already...

[asterisk-users] Fiber or regular DSL Supported Gateways/PRI
Hello Everyone, I am looking to getting converged with the local ILEC here in Canada (Bell or Telus), and was wondering if I can get some more information about typical setups. DIDs and channel offerings from third party clecs does not fit our business model and that's why we are looking to purchasing phone numbers directly from the ILEC, and manging our own PRIs for a convergence of sorts. My questions are: * Do we need a T1/3 of DS3 connection setup, or can we function of regular IPX, DSL, Fiber... * If we can function on a regular fiber or DSL connection, which media gateways provide a WAN interface for such a connection, or will we need a ethernet to T1 adapter to plug our connection to the appliance (e.g., audiocodes or sangoma). Finally, if you have recently setup such an interconnection, some details on what to expect, options and so on would be greatly appreciated.

I extracted the SIP user, pass, server info from the modem and even managed to put my PBX into the same VLAN they use, on the exact same IP address like the modem but there is 1 problem: It seems this modem also sends some session ID to the ISP's sip server, something what Asterisk doesn't by default.

Re: [asterisk-users] Network based transcoding
Hello Gentlemen, Thank you so much for your response, we have adopted transcoding cards in our old system, and they do have some limitations, especially when it comes to concurrent calls. We were looking more into the lines of a scalable multi server router like a cisco 3745. And loading it with maximum number of packet voice DSP modules. A gateway like the ones mentioned would also work fine. Anything but an SBC, since we handle that on our own, and it would just be redundant. What I am kind of unclear about, is how a network appliance would fit into our architecture when it comes to processing the RTP streams before passing it on to our servers for example Please excuse my noob question ;) N.

Re: [asterisk-users] Network based transcoding
Sorry for the missing info. Our current architecture is as such: NAT - SIP/RTP Proxy - *(n) Our concurrent sessions usually peak at between 700-800 channels. On average about 450. I will of course look at the documentation to better understand how a transcoding appliance would fit in our architecture, and thank you so much for the links!!!

[asterisk-users] Asterisk Peaking and 91 Calls And not a Dime More!
Hello Everyone, We are running some torcher tests on our * box using SIPP. The overall idea of the test is to contact asterisk and play a g729 encoded recording. On the asterisk side, we are initiating the echo app for the contacted extension, simulating a two way conversation. For some reason we cannot get past *91* calls on every test, with a lot of resources left: *top* top - 14:28:45 up 1 day, 1:45, 2 users, load average: 1.09, 0.80, 0.59 Tasks: 56 total, 1 running, 55 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie %Cpu(s): 7.6 us, 8.5 sy, 0.0 ni, 82.7 id, 0.0 wa, 0.0 hi, 1.2 si, 0.0 st KiB Mem: 3825108 total, 164480 used, 3660628 free,16324 buffers KiB Swap: 2097148 total,0 used, 2097148 free,97404 cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 7229 root 20 0 70400 25m 5808 S 35.5 0.7 7:29.26 asterisk *iftop* Press H or ? for help 1.91Mb 3.81Mb5.72Mb 7.63Mb 9.54Mb └┴─┴───┴┴ test.example.com = 192.168.2.100 1.75Mb 1.75Mb 1.71Mb = 1.70Mb 1.70Mb 1.66Mb test.example.com = db.example.com 37.3Kb 37.3Kb 36.5Kb = 10.1Kb 10.1Kb 9.87Kb TX: cumm: 8.28MB peak: 1.79Mb rates: 1.79Mb 1.79Mb 1.74Mb RX: 7.93MB 1.72Mb 1.71Mb 1.71Mb 1.67Mb TOTAL: 16.2MB 3.51Mb 3.50Mb 3.50Mb 3.41Mb The SIPP Results -- Scenario Screen [1-9]: Change Screen -- Call-rate(length) Port Total-time Total-calls Remote-host 10.0(0 ms)/1.000s 50602089.21 s20802 192.168.2.10:5060(UDP) 0 new calls during 0.000 s period 0 ms scheduler resolution 0 calls (limit 100)Peak was 91 calls, after 9 s 0 Running, 332 Paused, 0 Woken up 0 dead call msg (discarded)0 out-of-call msg (discarded) 1 open sockets Messages Retrans Timeout Unexpected-Msg INVITE -- 20802 0 0 100 -- 20802 0 0 0 180 -- 0 0 0 0 200 -- E-RTD1 20802 0 0 0 ACK -- 20802 0 [ NOP ] Pause [ 8000ms] 20802 0 [ NOP ] Pause [ 1000ms] 20802 0 BYE -- 20802 0 0 200 -- 20802 0 0 0 -- Test Terminated - Statistics Screen --- [1-9]: Change Screen -- Start Time | 2013-04-09 14:08:07:797 1365530887.797642 Last Reset Time| 2013-04-09 14:42:57:025 1365532977.025339 Current Time | 2013-04-09 14:42:57:025 1365532977.025537 -+---+-- Counter Name | Periodic value| Cumulative value -+---+-- Elapsed Time | 00:00:00:000 | 00:34:49:227 Call Rate |0.000 cps |9.957 cps -+---+-- Incoming call created |0 |0 OutGoing call created |0 |20802 Total Call created | |20802 Current Call |0 | -+---+-- Successful call|0 |20802 Failed call|0 |0 -+---+-- Response Time 1| 00:00:00:000 | 00:00:00:003 Call Length| 00:00:00:000 | 00:00:09:010 -- Test Terminated Can we clear OS and * bottlenecks down into the different parts: OS - Simple commands such as ulimit etc...

Hello Marie, Increasing the rate got us up 2 folds, Thank you so much for your help. We have a clustered asterisk setup, and it seems like 200 concurrent calls at 70% cpu is how we can keep these machine humming comfortably.

What command line do you use to start SIPP? I see your call rate is 10 calls/sec and maximum calls set to 100. Have you tried experimenting with increasing the call rate (-r command line parameter)? How long is the recording you are playing or have you set a call length for SIPP (-d command line option) - that is, how long are your calls? SIPP generates just as many calls as specified - if you have 10 calls per sec, it's quite logical to have ~90 ongoing calls after 9 secs. If your recording is about 9 secs, then the first calls will end at that time and you will never have more than ~90 concurrent calls. -- marie -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk Peaking and 91 Calls And not a Dime More!
Hello Steve, Thank you so much for your response, we are testing each working nodes separately. These are computers the size of your palm that run on an average of 10 watts. With more's law in mind, how far can we push? I just kept the load under 80% cpu consumptions? Can we increase exponentially till something starts clunking and pinging? What I am asking is what is the general rule of thumb when performing such tests? Thanks in Advance, Nick.

Re: [asterisk-users] Optimizing Asterisk Environment
On the network side, Joshua had mentioned some network based encoding solutions. We would be sold on this. What are some of the routers out there that provide this capability with descent throughput?

[asterisk-users] Using type=friend a mistake?
Hello Everyone, Just looking to secure our * box, and stumbled on the following This advice may run counter to the majority of documentation, sample files and examples shown on the voip-info.org site and on Asterisk forums, but you’ll have to take my word for it – using “type=friend” is a big mistake! It will make your Asterisk server much more vulnerable because “type=friend” actually causes two objects to be created – a SIP peer and a SIP user. This gives the potential hacker two entrance doors into your PBX, one of which has comparatively weak security. The problem is that a “user” is allowed to connect from any remote IP address, not just the address specified in the host parameter. Even if you want to allow connections from any address, it is much better to use “host=dynamic” than to use “type=friend”., http://kb.smartvox.co.uk/asterisk/secure-asterisk-pbx-part-2/ Is this true? Before I update all my type to peer, what are some of the things we needs to keep in mind when using friend vs. peer from a security standpoint?

[asterisk-users] Optimizing Asterisk Environment
Hello Everyone, We are getting some rather poor results (relative) with our Asterisk setup. Not sure if we are using the sipp correctly etc.. but nevertheless, is there any documentation that describes how we can get the most our of our Asterisk box. For example when we hit the too many file error, and fixing it using ulimit. Also, is there any way we can allocate sufficient memory to our Asterisk instance when starting the PBX. An up to date and in-depth tutorial that covers this would be great. A quick search yielded pretty motivating success stories, but no little to no description on how to achieve them.

Re: [asterisk-users] Optimizing Asterisk Environment
Oh no secret. Some things I do is increase the ulimit size. I was wondering if there was a way to increase allocated memory. I have been reading about a -p option but when I start asterisk using asterisk -p -10 it does not accept it but asterisk -p 10 works fine. Not sure if that was the intended new value. Also, I just want to mention I am not trying to break any records. Just would like to get a ~200 concurrent call stable environment using G729 out of our setup.

Re: [asterisk-users] Optimizing Asterisk Environment
Hello Gentlemen, Thank you so much for your responses. We have been working on a SIP/RTP Proxy+Asterisk in backed by MySQL for a few weeks. Everything is working nicely I am pleased to say. And will be making some donations for G729 licenses etc.. (it's the least we can do to support the cause). Speaking about transcoding cards. We are functioning 100% on SIP using u/alaw and eventually G729. Some typical observations being great performance when not using G729 :)... Is there any transcoding happening when using only G729 and no other codec? We tried disallow=all and allow=g729 and judging by the CPU load 260% there seems to be... I hope this is not a silly question, but if we force the DID reseller to send only G729 encoded media, our asterisk server only allows G729, and finally for termination most sip trunk providers have g729 in there list of supported codecs, would there still be transcoding happening on our * box? I hope this is not as silly question as I think To answer your question, we also tried with only ulaw and alaw and we seem to be stuck on exactly 101 peak. Is there a limit setting hidden in one of the *.conf files? We let sipp run for almost 3 hours on our box, from another local computer using the following command: extensions.conf exten = 1002,1,Answer exten = 1002,n,Goto(demo,s,1) exten = 1002,n,Hangup ./sipp -sn uac -d 1 -s 1002 test.example.com -l 200 -mp 5606: And we got the following results: http://pastebin.com/J0YCprCb At 9.4 cps 96963 calls were executed with 0 failed calls. Where is the concurrent call figure in this tool? Please forgive me still getting use to it :). In regards to hardware transcoding cards for SIP protocol. Please let us know of some digium solutions. Again, we would love to support the cause. Nick.

[asterisk-users] Register Free Opensips/Asterisk Integration
Hello Everyone, I have gone through a few really good tutorials from the OpenSIPS site, Asterisk resources etc.. The unanswered question (and final piece of our puzzle) is if it's possible to have a register free environment in an OpenSIPS/Asterisk integration. Most approaches have OpenSIPS relay the UA's REGISTER request to Asterisk which has host=dynamic set for the Friend/Peer and everything works as expected. Where I run into problems is in Inbound calls. When I try to call the extension from a DID I am receiving Unable to create channel of type 'SIP' (cause 20 - Unknown). And rightfully so! Reason being: SIP Show Peers Yields: Name/username HostDynForcerport ACL Port Status Realtime 1001/1001 192.168.2.5N 5060 UNREACHABLE Cached RT TTrunk/sip.exp.com 192.168.2.5N 5060 UNKNOWN Cached RT As for who will keep track of the UA location, the OpenSIPS `location` table has the correct info: select username,domain,contact,socket from location; +--+++--+ | username | domain | contact| socket | +--+++--+ | 1001 | sip.exp.com | sip:1001@192.168.2.11:5060 | udp:192.168.2.5:5060 | +--+++--+ OpenSIPS: sip.exp.com OpenSIPS: 192.168.2.5 Asterisk: 192.168.2.10 UA: 192.168.2.11 I have set `host=sip.exp.com' for the UA but the UA is still `UNREACHABLE` by asterisk As for the rest of the media related stuff, everything works perfectly. Outbound works fine. As you know, this only poses a problem with inbound calls to the UAs.

[asterisk-users] Moving User Agent To Remote Location
Hello Everyone, Before getting into SIP and RTP traces, I wanted to clarify some of the sip.conf settings that may to some seem redundant or have a misconception with. I do apologize if this has been discussed time and time again as I would imagine. If anything, this email would make google search results that much stronger :). With the UA local to my network I had tested two way audio, and now with the phone outside of network, we have no way audio. Before discussing NAT (which is enabled on the peer), and port forwarding (which is setup on the remote location), I would like to make sure I fully understand all the sip.conf settings. We are using Asterisk realtime via sip_buddies, and the fields in question are: (Enclosed in brackets are an example value for the setting) * host (dynamic): No problem here. Just wanted to mention that it's set as such * nat (yes): No problem here either * defaultuser (1...@example.com): Does the @example.com have to point to the UA (i.e., (1003@ua-public-ip), or is it just a name type field? * fullcontact: What to put here for a UA that is running at a remote location with dynamic external IP? * ipaddr (ua-public-ip): I did try setting it to the public ip of the UA, but is that really practical? What if I don't know where the initial registration request is coming from? I am guessing host=dynamic takes care of that. * defaultip?? * dynamic: Should this be set to yes, or is host=dynamic sufficient? The phone registers fine, and terminates a call through our providers. Just no audio both ways, which would suggest something more that an RTP issue which should at least have one way outgoing audio. Things that have been attempted: * Port forwarding to the phone * Changing defaultuser to 1003@ua-public-ip. This made our OpenSIPS sip proxy through a fit. Things I will attempt today: Calling the UA extension from an extension here SIP trace Your help is greatly appreciated!!!

Right now I am trying to call the phone from my softphone. That being said, I currently I am not able to reach the remote extension from my location here. I think this is the root of the problem here: -- Executing [1003@context-from-toronto:1] Dial(SIP/OpenSIPS-0009, SIP/1003, 20) in new stack Really destroying SIP dialog '06775f8653ff88b47cfa9ec123abdd89@127.0.0.1:0' Method: INVITE [Dec 12 15:35:54] WARNING[1736]: app_dial.c:2198 dial_exec_full: Unable to create channel of type 'SIP' (cause 20 - Unknown) == Everyone is busy/congested at this time (1:0/0/1) -- Executing [1003@context-from-toronto:2] Wait(SIP/OpenSIPS-0009, 1) in new stack -- Executing [1003@context-from-toronto:3] Answer(SIP/OpenSIPS-0009, ) in new stack Audio is at 5060 Adding codec 0x8 (alaw) to SDP Adding codec 0x4 (ulaw) to SDP Adding codec 0x2 (gsm) to SDP Adding non-codec 0x1 (telephone-event) to SDP It's actually not able to create the SIP channel between the two UA?

I do apologize if this has been discussed time and time again as I would imagine. If anything, this email would make google search results that much stronger :). With the UA local to my network I had tested two way audio, and now with the phone outside of network, we have no way audio. Before discussing NAT (which is enabled on the peer), and port forwarding (which is setup on the remote location), I would like to make sure I fully understand all the sip.conf settings. We are using Asterisk realtime via sip_buddies, and the fields in question are: (Enclosed in brackets are an example value for the setting) * host (dynamic): No problem here. Just wanted to mention that it's set as such * nat (yes): No problem here either * defaultuser (1...@example.com): Does the @example.com have to point to the UA (i.e., (1003@ua-public-ip), or is it just a name type field? * fullcontact: What to put here for a UA that is running at a remote location with dynamic external IP? * ipaddr (ua-public-ip): I did try setting it to the public ip of the UA, but is that really practical? What if I don't know where the initial registration request is coming from? I am guessing host=dynamic takes care of that. * defaultip?? * dynamic: Should this be set to yes, or is host=dynamic sufficient? The phone registers fine, and terminates a call through our providers. Just no audio both ways, which would suggest something more that an RTP issue which should at least have one way outgoing audio. Things that have been attempted: * Port forwarding to the phone * Changing defaultuser to 1003@ua-public-ip. This made our OpenSIPS sip proxy through a fit. Things I will attempt today: Calling the UA extension from an extension here SIP trace Your help is greatly appreciated!!! Nick. I'm going to vote for the RTP issue. If you are establishing a call but have no audio, you are getting the 5060 port, but not the 1-2 range that RTP normally expects. A better practice is to allocate 4 ports per line you expect to use in rtp.conf (1-2 would allow 2500 lines; much more that most folks need and more holes to monitor). -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Similarly for the reverse: originate a call from Indian PSTN to your local office here and route it using VoIP to any destination (whether within India or abroad). A licence is required in that case too. In general, interconnection of two different entities by bridging Indian PSTN with any other technology requires a licence. If you're only doing VoIP-VoIP, or PSTN-PSTN, or bridging an Indian VoIP call to PSTN outside India then it's permitted in principle. This is why, e.g., Skype is permitted: it doesn't connect to the Indian PSTN at any stage. Once again, IANAL and TINLA. This is purely from my (mostly informed) understanding of the current laws.

Re: [asterisk-users] DID from Direct from Telco
Thank you guys for your response, One FXS port can only handle one call. A PRI T1 gateway can handle 23 call channels. A single T1 Data line with SIP can handle about 18 call channels running G711, 37 channels running g729 I just want to make sure that a T1 Gateway (capable of 23 call channels), plugged into an FXS port (capable of one call), is not a bottleneck. I.e., even though our network can handle upto 23 channels, we can only support 1 concurrent call becuase of the single FXS? What I am trying to figure out is what would I need to have the same capabilities as a company offering DIDs. Which mediant, and maybe a nice illustration?

Re: [asterisk-users] DID from Direct from Telco
I realized there was an error in my last post. I meant analog gateway plugged into and FXO port. DIDs must start somwhere. And I am under the impression that the telcos are the one that have control over that? Therefore, we would first need an analog gateway plugged into an FXO, before being able to go through the T1s and media servers? Your insight is greatly appreciated.
