Hello We have successful trixbox running since last 1 year and I have tried many times to replace it with sipx(since 3.10) before I finally give up, I ask this forum the problems I am facing.
Our setup is one Vegastream50 Europa and one GXW4104 used as gateway and approx 20 Polycom 550+ 6xCisco7975. Trix works fine. For experiment, I switch off trix, and setup sipx at the same IP address. I setup all users and pins same as the trix (so that I donot have to reconfigure anything). I have tried the following with the results - a) Flipping the polycoms to ftp - this way, they are autoprovisioned by sipx and works most of the time. b) Tries using ciscoplus to generate the Cisco xml file - It generates buggy file(but reading - I came to know I had to insert the processnodename). Cisco registers after that. c) Vegastream - Never was able to make it work. In dial plan, sending to TA:sipx_address never worked. But sending to TEL:100 (autoattendant) works. d) GXW4104 - switching became extremely unreliable(though it is super reliable with trix). While autoattendant is playing, there will be strange noises and the number will be busy. I guess codec neg. issue with sipx. It never has happened with Trix. To be sure, I upgraded the firmware to latest. (1.25.xx) e) Since Vega was able to direct calls to AA, I tested to find that AA will only trnasfer calls to Polycoms. All others - ext not avail. But Polycom can call Cisco, so I believe there is bug with AA. And no - its not DTMF issue as I tried even on timing out, it doesnot go to defualt extension(which happens to be cisco). e) 3CX softphone as test had hit and miss call transfers. Bria - worked most of the time. So, my findings are - a) Sipx works only with Polycom b) Sipx has serious issues with Vegastream and Grandstream gateways. c) Sipx doesnot like Cisco and eventhough it stays regsitered, its lying!! Please comment - Is sipx is designed to work ONLY with polycom and VOIP providers? Its not supposed to be replacement of asterisk? _______________________________________________ sipx-users mailing list [email protected] List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-users Unsubscribe: http://list.sipfoundry.org/mailman/listinfo/sipx-users sipXecs IP PBX -- http://www.sipfoundry.org/
