Re: [asterisk-users] Paging systems?
No. The SNOM PA1 are headless SIP clients which you configure in auto answer and connect to an amplifier to drive PA speakers. The phones are where you make the announcements from.

Re: [asterisk-users] Paging systems?
For a paging system? No you don't. A number of SNOM PA1's and a few grandstream phones and you're golden. If you do need FXO or FXS, they are just as easy to setup as well, and there are lots to choose from. On Thu, Mar 21, 2019, 4:45 PM Ryan, Travis, wrote: > You need more than an ATA.

Re: [asterisk-users] RS485 Audio device
We do something like this, however we have two pairs of wires. One pair is RS-485 for control running at 9600 baud. The other pair is baseband audio which we control through relays on our intercoms. I can't imaging trying to transmit digitally encoded audio over an RS485 network. There are just too many issues with such a setup. cheers, darryl On 2016-11-02 03:46 PM, Jerry Geis wrote: Hi All, The reason for the question was simply that the customer desired some solution called an "AOR" or Area of refuge - I think it was. Basically a call button, microphone and speaker to hear back with the kicker being "a long distance" the solution has to run. RS485 is like 4000 feet. There are solutions our there apparently that are not built on asterisk - so I was just trying to find a solution that potentially worked with asterisk. Thanks!

Re: [asterisk-users] Delay after Answer
I've seen this sort of thing where a DNS server is programmed in resolv.conf but is not accessible over the network. Threads get blocked, and you have to wait for the DNS query to timeout. On 16-06-07 10:48 AM, Brent Davidson wrote: I am having an issue with a couple of phones where they ring, but there is a long delay after the phone is picked up before the audio starts. My setup: * Server running Asterisk 13.9.1, Dahdi 2.11.1 w/ OSLEC * Server is CentOS 7 * Quad core CPU with 16GB Ram * 2 Snom 300 phones. * NO NAT. Server and phone are on the same subnet with only a gigabit switch between them. * Digium TDM400 analog card with 2 incoming analog PSTN lines When a call comes in, the system answers, IVR plays, caller dials an extension, Snom 300 rings, handset picked up. Caller continues to hear ringing for another 7 to 10 seconds. Answerer hears a click, a quick burst of audio, then silence, then another click and audio is engaged. I have tried both SIP and RTP debugging and there are absolutely no messages indicating any timeout or retransmit. I am at a total loss. In the past I've always been able to find an answer to issues like this on my own, but this time I just don't know. I was even beginning to suspect the network switch might be bad, but pinging between the server and the phones shows no packet loss and 0.969ms average response time.

[asterisk-users] SIP port blocking
Hey all. This isn't directly an Asterisk question, but it is Asterisk related because I am using SIP on asterisk. The last couple of days I found that our asterisk box was having all packets originating from port 5060 being blocked. If I moved my SIP port to any other port I could register and place calls, leaving it on 5060 I can do neither. Also if I ran tcpdump on both ends of my truck connection. I could see all packets arriving at the other end ONLY when they were not originating from port 5060. The next question was where was it being blocked. running traceroute yielded the following: root@1940IronStone:~# traceroute -z 1000 -A -U -p 5060 --sport=5060 70.xx.xx.200 traceroute to 70.xx.xx.200 (70.xx.xx.200), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets 1 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) [*] 3.837 ms 5.282 ms 6.280 ms 2 64.230.199.2 (64.230.199.2) [AS577] 9.690 ms * * 3 64.230.232.177 (64.230.232.177) [AS577] 24.936 ms * * 4 agg2-toronto63_xe5-1-0.net.bell.ca (64.230.156.178) [AS577] 40.235 ms * * 5 lns9-toronto63_GE1-0_101.net.bell.ca (64.230.103.145) [AS577] 10.382 ms * * 6 * * * 7 * * * 8 * * * 9 * * * Notice the second and third packet at each hop after the first router all timeout. Even when I put a long delay between packets. Looking further, I find the same response no matter what source port I use. It appears any UDP packet stream from the same port is being blocked. I don't see this behaviour if I allow traceroute to use random source ports for each packet, and I don't see this on other networks. traceroute -A -U -p 5060 70.xx.xx.200 traceroute to 70.xx.xx.200 (70.xx.xx.200), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets 1 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) [*] 62.783 ms 62.759 ms 62.743 ms 2 64.230.199.2 (64.230.199.2) [AS577] 66.565 ms 66.550 ms 66.587 ms 3 64.230.232.177 (64.230.232.177) [AS577] 66.488 ms 66.487 ms 66.535 ms 4 agg2-toronto63_xe5-1-0.net.bell.ca (64.230.156.178) [AS577] 66.521 ms 66.510 ms 66.552 ms Has anybody seen anything like this before?

[asterisk-users] Suspicious routers
Hello list, I have again come across a router which behaves very badly with my IAX2 packets. This time I've documented it and thought I'd share to see if anyone else has seen similar issues.

Now having said that. I agree once you leave the lab environment and decide you need g.729, you will unfortunatly need a licence to keep using it. The real question is: is there really any choice other than Digium for the licence? Due to the dual licensing of the asterisk code, even if you could license the codec elsewhere, you might be violating Digium's OSS license when you don't but their commercial asterisk license.

Re: [asterisk-users] is g729 codec free? or under license???
Thank you Steve, and I read a bit more on the web on this subject including your own well reasoned page at http://www.soft-switch.org/patents/index.html However, despite wide acceptance of the patentability of such codecs (unfortunately), whether they are in fact software patents or not appears to be a matter of opinion. The FSF and Fedora both refer to codec patents as being software patents. http://endsoftpatents.org/2011/02/usa-patent-reform-not-enough/ http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Software_Patents A quick google search of both terms will show that there are a great many people who see codec patents as software patents, so I don't think I am alone there. Though I think I can see how you differentiate them, I'm not sure there are any simple rules on how you draw that line between them, and that is very problematic. Before the advent of powerful personal computers, codec patents would have few societal issues. I think now, the harm caused by these patents are greater than the benefit. Much like the harm caused by current copyright laws out weigh the current benefits. I was disappointed to read that New Zealand's patent reforms did not go as far as to invalidate codec patents, but I do look forward to g.729 entering the PD in 2016ish and joining MP3s which also recently became an unencumbered format in most countries.

Re: [asterisk-users] is g729 codec free? or under license???
Hi guys. I would also add that in countries which do not recognize software patents (New Zealand for example) there is no need to get a license and the codecs can therefore be downloaded from http://asterisk.hosting.lv/ and used freely. In countries where there is ambiguity about certain software patents, (such as Canada or Germany) well you take your chances. Countries that do recognize them (such as the US or Japan) you'd be smart to get a license. Also I do believe the US patent on g729 expires next year anyway, so again you might want to weigh that costs/risks factor too. cheers, darryl On Wed, 2013-10-02 at 09:55 -0400, Bryant Zimmerman wrote: When calling between two g729 client endpoints you do not need any licenses as long as no audio prompts or voicemail is evolved. Also as a sip trunk provider we offer g729 as a source and destination codec this allows you to make calls in and out using g729 (most carrier grade providers offer this option) You really only need to buy the number of g729 licenses that you will need for callers that require simultaneous transcoding. This is when a callers stream in or out will need to be converted to another codec format. This occurs when callers are jumping from say g729 to g711 or g729 to g722, g729 to gsm. If you plan things right and make sure any audio prompts your system is using are recorded in g729 as well as g711 and g722 you will reduce the number of g729 license considerable. Process that use a lot of g729 transcodes. ConfBridge uses g722 so all g729 has to be converted to and from g722 so 10 g729 callers to a confbridge would likely require 10 codecs (**See confbridge trick below). If you have prompts that are not pre-encoded in g729 those would use a transcoder license while playing. Voicemail would require a license as g729 has to be transcoded to one of the storage formats. The real number is based on how you are using your system. ConfBridge Trick - Have seen this used for voicemail as well, Make sure you test when using this method. If you can live with using higher bandwidth to the asterisk switch when using confbridges (endpoints also have to support in call reinvites correctly) you can force endpoints to re-invite to g722 before dropping into the conference bridge. This has the upside of not needing to transcode on the server thus improving performance and reducing g729 license requirements. This comes at the cost of needing higher bandwidth between the client endpoints and the phone. Figure about double the bandwidth when using this method.

Re: [asterisk-users] iax packet loss again.
OK list. Just in case anyone cares. I did figure out (sort of) why I was not receiving any IAX packets. http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2013-September/280590.html My modules.conf file was the same one I had previously used in 1.8 and it specifically loaded necessary modules instead of using autoload = yes. This was because previously I had been having issues with a few modules and my simple application did not need many, so this was the easy solution. I'm not sure what modules IAX requires in 11 which were not required in 1.8 so as not to choke. (Well other then chan_iax2 of course which I was using.) Any way. If any one else has issues with IAX packets (I've seen a small number) check your modules.conf file and see if you can figure out what undocumented module it is missing.
