Re: [Asterisk-Users] * point to point t1 solution?
Damon, I am not intimately familiar with what you are specifically trying to achieve, *BUT*, if the two Norstars are essentially just 'interconnected' via teh T1 to provide either an EM Wink "type" connection/private TDM bus between the two boxes so that extensions are 'bridged' between the two PABX's.. then *YES*.. Asterisk can do that. I have a setup at present of an Asterisk box that has 1 E1 PRI coming in from a telco, and 1 E1 PRI going TO an Ericsson BP250 system. The Asterisk box transparently passes incoming calls destined for the BP250 to the BP250, and all the BP250 users can 'direct-dial' so to speak Asterisk extensions and vice-versa. Since your original question is a tad ambigious to someone not entirely intimate with your setup, I could have missed the point entirely, as there is quite a few 'ways' to tie PABX's together and the reasoning can be very different (Could be for 'switched' extensions, could be for LCR setup, could be for VoiceMail integration, could be cause thats what the original installer just did...) Hope that helps you a little. I'd suggest looking at "Connecting Asterisk to Legacy PABX's" and then extrapolate that information to suit your needs.

As for web based hints, with some experience I've found that google is as good as asking the mailing list. If you have no success with the mailing list, the wiki (voip-info.org) and google, you can try the irc channel #asterisk on freenode. If that still doesn't work, shelling out a few hundred bucks for a consultant to help you do it - and train you in the process - is the other alternative, and is often a good deal. I've done it a couple of times myself, and it's awesome how far people can get you and how hard they try when you recognize the value of their work with some money (as opposed to just asking nicely).

Jean-Michel, I agree with all of your comments, and would be willing to bet $100 that NO AMOUNT OF GOOGLING will answer this question definitively. After reviewing Adrian Carters very informative response regarding TDMoE I am getting closer to what I need to know (now my googles include asterisk AND TDMoE). This is CLEARLY uncharted territory, while I'll bet it has been done before, no one took the time to document it. My return to the list if I am successful will be to document the config on the wiki... fair exchange? And, if along the way I find an EXPERT in this area with REAL WORLD PRODUCTION EXPERIENCE I will gladly pay the fees, but I am not about to shell out anything to pay some know-it-all to educate themselves and provide me a half baked solution that has never been put to the real world test. D Damon Estep a écrit : Jean-Michel, You missed the entire point - the question is IS ASTERISK CAPABLE OF EMULATING A POINT TO POINT T1 BETWEEN 2 BOXES, AND IF SO ARE THERE ANY WEB BASED HINTS I MIGHT LOOK AT? Not WILL YOU DO IT FOR ME? Yes, I think Asterisk can do what you are trying to achieve. No, I don't know how to do it, and no I won't do it for you since I've never been in the situation you're in. As for web based hints, with some experience I've found that google is as good as asking the mailing list. If you have no success with the mailing list, the wiki (voip-info.org) and google, you can try the irc channel #asterisk on freenode. If that still doesn't work, shelling out a few hundred bucks for a consultant to help you do it - and train you in the process - is the other alternative, and is often a good deal. I've done it a couple of times myself, and it's awesome how far people can get you and how hard they try when you recognize the value of their work with some money (as opposed to just asking nicely).

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Best FXO hardware for home use
I'm using an X100P Clone at home and i had not much trouble, remember I'm just testing and learning a bit at home. I think if you hace to implement it at office you'll have to spend a bit more. 2006/1/25, Joseph Tanner [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Personally, I've had great success with an X101P (it's a clone, but it's the exact same chipset and layout of the original). Now, with Asterisk 1.2 beta2 (I believe it was beta2, I could be wrong though) and a P3 933MHz PC I did get annoying echo that I couldn't get rid of, and only on outgoing calls. If someone called me, even though all the same equipment is being used, there was no echo. Anyways, I upgraded to [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2.2 with Asterisk 1.2.1 and at the same time upgraded to a Celeron 2.93GHz PC, and there's virtually no echo. Only if there's complete silence on the other end and you yell very loud, can you barely make any hint of an echo out. No idea if it was the Asterisk upgrade, the new PC, or both that fixed my problem. Also, somewhere around the pre-1.0 days, I had two of these clones (one was the exact same layout as the actual X101P, the other had a different layout but the same chipset) and the one I used with my Packet8 line had no echo, but my landline did. Didn't matter if I switched the lines, the one connected to the Packet8 device had zero echo, the one connected to my landline had a noticeable echo (again, only on outgoing calls, incoming was fine). Played with rxgain/txgain, all the echo settings, etc. But now all is fine. Guess what I'm trying to say, is a lot depends on the line itself, and your exact setup. If you can pick up an X101P clone for cheap, I'd try that first. Most you're out is a few bucks (I say a few bucks, cause even if you pay $20 and decide it won't work for you, you can sell it for about what you paid). If you build or repair PCs a lot for others, then you'll need a good cheap modem someday anyways, the clone cards work fine for that. Works fine for me, only issue I have now is callerid isn't 100% reliable, but works the majority of the time. Until I troubleshoot it further (i.e., connect a regular phone directly to my landline to at least verify it's getting callerid when asterisk isn't), I can't blame the card for that. As long as the card will work with your setup (odds are it will), I think it's the best solution for home or small business use. Joseph Tanner On 1/25/06, Rich Adamson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: echo cancellation is pretty limited on these cheap devices. the spa3000 manual for example states the AEC is limited to 8ms. good AECs will handle 64ms or more. in my experience the spa3000 echo canceller is cranky. it works most but not all of the time. I have been using one for 6 months without any problems. Make sure you have the most current firmware on it and it should work just fine. Kerry, There is an issue with the spa3k (as well as the TDM04b) in terms of handling echo properly on long pstn loops. You are obviously on a relatively short loop if you've not been exposed to the variable echo cancellation issues. In other words, long pstn loops basically fall outside the limits of the echo cancellation software as someone else already noted. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users -- Facundo Ameal. famealatgmaildotcom Linux User #395088 FWD: 741664 MSN: asadoatlamorcilladotcomdotar ICQ: 74005793 Open your mind, use open source. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Looking for Q.Sig success story
Hi Mimmus, and thanks for the quick reply. You are welcome. It is actually very good to hear that most of it works. The difference in my project is that we'll keep the PSTN link on the Alcatel, and use the asterisk only as a inter-site trunking solution. The reason is that I have no Alcatel knowledge (will rely on other people), and I want to be as un-intrusive as possible. If you don't mind, I would have some additional questions: I have no knowledge of Alcatel too! I think that putting Asterisk in front of Alcatel is the best way to offer * advanced features (voicemail, audioconference, fax, ...) to all users. 1) Can you confirm that Q.Sig is the only option for me ? No idea! 2) What hardware are you using on the Asterisk (Digium ?) Tried both Digium TE410P and Sangoma A102. Better results with latest one. Once my pilot starts I may come back to you for some examples and advice, but this probably won't happen before a month or so. No problem.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Best FXO hardware for home use
I didn't right those products off and in fact use both on a regular basis. For the price, both are pretty good. However, for a higher price there are products on the market that _do_ handle echo cancellation in a very solid fashion (eg, Mediatrix 1204 as one example) regardless of the analog cable lengths, etc. To blatantly suggest the spa3k or TDM are the _recommended_ choices totally ignores their weaknesses. In other words, chose the product that fits the situation, and for this list there seems to be a large number of people that don't have a clue how analog lines are even constructed let alone measured. There is no such thing as one product that fits all needs. There is no doubt that given a particular scenario, anything won't work properly. This is not necessarily a problem with the SPA3000 or the TDM cards, this is much more of a phone line issue. Granted, those devices don't handle line issues as well as some other devices (such as the long loop issue you mentioned) but to write them off as being poor products I felt was a bit overkill. I have several very successful installs with TDM cards and SPA3000s and on the other hand I have an install that nothing seems to want to work with the PSTN lines that are there. So while I do agree with you on what the actual issue is, I don't think it is 100% fair to write off the SPA3000 in all cases.

I have been using one for 6 months without any problems. Make sure you have the most current firmware on it and it should work just fine. Kerry, There is an issue with the spa3k (as well as the TDM04b) in terms of handling echo properly on long pstn loops. You are obviously on a relatively short loop if you've not been exposed to the variable echo cancellation issues. In other words, long pstn loops basically fall outside the limits of the echo cancellation software as someone else already noted. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ---End of Original Message- ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Linksys SPA-941 multiple line appearences
Has anyone had any experience with the Linksys SPA-941 when it comes to multiple line appearences? This is what the 841 manual says: (maybe the 941 is different?) The SPA-841 does not support multiple calls on the same Line key. The corresponding Line key blinks quickly in red on any incoming call. If there is no other active calls, the SPA-841 will ring with either the default ring of that extension or the distinctive ring associated with the caller. If there is another active call, however, the SPA-841 will not ring the phone, but plays the call-waiting tone to alert the user. The SPA-841 supports multiple call-waiting. In fact, all 4 call appearances can ring at the same time. Or was that not the question? :) I find no settings (phone or web interface) on the SPA-941 about call waiting. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
RE: [Asterisk-Users] * point to point t1 solution?
Lets put the TDMoE aside for a minute... The same trunking could be achieved with SIP or IAX, could it not (with higher latency)? The rest of the question remains - is there a way to get asterisk to output, bit for bit, on a t1 interface, the same data that is input on a remote asterisk box t1 interface - using any trunking protocol. This is what would be required to truly emulate a signaling un-aware point to point t1 like one that you would get from a telco if you ordered a point to point esf/b8zs t1 from A location to Z location. Pure circuit emulation - not ISDN/CAS/EM signaled voice.

Damon,Unless I misunderstand what you are looking for, a P2P T1 would be handled by the kernel, not by asterisk. If you want to use digium cards, you would still need zaptel, or you could use a sangoma card on each end and their wanrouter drivers. Asterisk would obviously be involved in the SIP or IAX connection to pass calls, but not with the P2P T1.

Its really not hard to provide good cust service over the Internet. It doesnt take very long to reply to an email inquiry or fix the little problems most people have.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] * point to point t1 solution? / alternatives
This has been an interesting discussion for me (except for the sniping). The last post led me, out of curiosity, to this wiki entry: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+TDMoE I was unaware of this feature, and it looks pretty good. I've been pondering replacing some T1's by leveraging IP capacity but of course have run up against the QoS issue. My idea was different... I don't have production experience with precisely this type of application, but I ask for validation from this list. Pardon me for stating what is undoubtedly obvious to many... The key to assuring adequate performance in replacing a TDM link with IP is to assure that adequate idle time is reserved for voice on the IP segment(s) involved in the route. In this way, latency can be stabilized, and if maintained below a certain (arbitrary) threshold, performance can be deemed acceptable. The first step, of course, is to assure that the virtual TDM allocation does not exceed the available IP bandwidth (so leave a margin, which is huge in the example given). The next step is to use routers which respect the TOS field (however it is used; diffserv/whatever), and finally, to assure that no non-VoIP traffic can be injected into the path with higher routing priority. On a point-to-point link, a pair of typical Linux boxes can do all this. Given the original problem, I would place Asterisk boxes at either end of the link, and have them blend the ordinary traffic with the VoIP traffic (which would probably use IAX to relay calls between the T1s), while assuring (enforcing) that VoIP packets are marked as highest priority. There are varied ways of accomplishing this, and a good reference which I've used in the past can be found at: http://www.lartc.org/lartc.html Additionally, I think one could use the tunneling techniques described in that guide to encapsulate the non-VoIP traffic such that its packets' originally marked TOS values are preserved for transit outside the segment used for TDM emulation. In this way, that part of the segment bandwidth not required for VoIP would function as a dedicated link, allowing other prioritization of traffic such as interactive vs. bulk (or even other voice!), with the added advantage that it could use the reserved VoIP bandwidth when it is otherwise not required (albeit in the case of a T-1 over 10Mb, that's insignificant). Is this easier or harder than TDMoE as described? Does the TDMoE shared idle bandwidth? What about stability (I'm thinking of SW releases)? What other drawbacks or advantages are there?

RE: [Asterisk-Users] * point to point t1 solution?
Thanks Matt, PRI signalling means that calls and answered and dialed (aka signalled) by asterisk, the goal is to maintain the signalling between the two nortel boxes. I have gathered that raw point to point circuit emulation is not possible on asterisk... I am aware of how to connect a PBX to asterisk using ISDN PRI signalling.

The same trunking could be achieved with SIP or IAX, could it not (with higher latency)?

This is what would be required to truly emulate a signaling un-aware point to point t1 like one that you would get from a telco if you ordered a point to point esf/b8zs t1 from A location to Z location.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] * point to point t1 solution? / alternatives
I've seen this discussion before. The conclusion was, it is possible to route TDMoE through a VPN tunnel depending on the tunnel setup you are using (bridge + tunnel for example) however the latency would make it useless. TDMoE is designed for the same network. Unfortuanely I can't find a link for it, but I remember it distinctly. Another, large issue, is that TDMoE uses T1 - style bandwidth constantly whether it is in use or not. Even if it were possible to route it, and even if the latency problem was solved, can you imagine your bandwidth surcharge of ~1.5Mbps constant? At the end of the day, emulating TDM through the use of IAX and a well written dialplan is totally the way to go. -Original Message- From: Steve Langstaff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 26, 2006 8:16 AM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] * point to point t1 solution? / alternatives Remember, however that TDMoE is TDMoE, not TDMoIP - it's not routable (unless you encapsulate it somehow, I guess). -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Bill Michaelson Sent: 26 January 2006 14:58 To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] * point to point t1 solution? / alternatives This has been an interesting discussion for me (except for the sniping).

Thanks a billion. Outbound bluetooth dialling on the lines of Dial(BLT/DevName/8005551212) worked for me. Still trying out the inbound route. Before I created the [bluetooth] context, it tried to reach the [default] context but then I began by creating a new context [bluetooth] in extensions.conf and got my internal SIP phone to ring when I received a call on my SE T616 cell phone.

Also the usb dongle must have a CSR chipset, else it won't work (well, at least probably won't work, I'll provide instructions on how to tell if it should work or not later). Here's the relevant instructions on http://www.crazygreek.co.uk/content/chan_bluetooth for how to dial out: Send a call out by using Dial(BLT/DevName/0123456). As far as dialing in, there's a special context (I think [bluetooth] maybe? I'll have to get back to you on that).

Also the usb dongle must have a CSR chipset, else it won't work (well, at least probably won't work, I'll provide instructions on how to tell if it should work or not later). Here's the relevant instructions on http://www.crazygreek.co.uk/content/chan_bluetooth for how to dial out: Send a call out by using Dial(BLT/DevName/0123456). As far as dialing in, there's a special context (I think [bluetooth] maybe? I'll have to get back to you on that). I know that it should work fine, because I tried dialing the phone, asterisk picked it up then immediately disconnected because there was no context for it to go to (I think it tried to fall back on [default], which I didn't have configured to accept an incoming call).

To connect the channels of the T1 straight through would be by using a Digital Access Cross Connect system (DACS in proprietary ATT lingo). I believe there is this capability in zaptel, though this does not seem like the best option. As mentioned before, the ISDN PRI signaling seems like a much better solution.

[Asterisk-Users] Local Channel Call Looping
*** If anyone has a better way of doing this, please post to the list. I hadn't seen anything on this list or in channel.c/chan_local.c - which prompted this email *** I'm not sure how many VoIP providers out there are using Asterisk as a service platform like we do, but I thought I'd share an experience with call looping that was racking my brain with the list. One of the features we offer our customers, is of course, call forwarding. We take a call in and spit it back out to whatever the call forward number is set by the customer. With our particular proxy setup, if a call originates from * to the proxy it will never loop back to *; this prevents SIP call loops. In *, for an on-net call forward number, we would use the dial command to call (if it was registered) the customer's device with SIP via the proxy, and also dial a local channel to process any of the 'forward to' customer's features; again, this is for an on-net call. The problem was that if when we dial the local channel and that customer had forwarded calls to the first number or calls were setup to forward from cust1 to cust2 to cust3 to cust1, we were getting an infinite local channel loop. As you can imagine, the load on * was off the charts. The solution to the problem finally ended up being to set inherited channel variables. First, we'd read/parse the channel variable to determine if the call was coming in anything other than a local channel. If it was, a variable with that called number label was immediately set to a value of 1 - i.e. the first in the chain. Next, an addition variable with the 'call forward to' number was also given a value of 1, and then the call was processed. When the new local channel for the 'forward to' number was spawned, and assuming that call forwarding was set on that number, the process would repeat with this inherited variable label scheme. The catch is that in each iteration at the same time the call forward to number is being labeled, the system would check that variable for a value before it tried to assign one. If the variable had a value, it was safe to assume that it had already been processed in the call chain somewhere and therefore the system would be looping the call if it continued. Here are some sanitized Perl based AGI excerpts that accomplish this: sub callfwd_loop_check { my %v; ($v{callednum},$v{cfnum}) = @_; $v{num} = $AGI-get_variable($v{cfnum}); if ($v{num}) { debug( Call Loop Anaylsis for .$v{callednum}. = LOOPING); return(1); } else { debug( Call Loop Anaylsis for .$v{callednum}. = NO LOOP); $AGI-exec('Set',__.$v{cfnum}.=.$v{callednum}) } return; } $AGI-exec('Set',__.$callednumber.=1) if ($calltype !~/^Local/); if (callfwd_loop_check($callednumber,$callfwdtonum)) { return; } $AGI-exec('Dial',Local/+.$callfwdtonum.[EMAIL PROTECTED]SIP/+.$callfwdtonum.[EMAIL PROTECTED]|180); I hope this all makes sense! :) Thanks, - Darren ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

[Asterisk-Users] Pause/UnpauseQueueMember
Title: Message Hello all. Anybody around that is utilizing the PauseQueueMember and UnpauseQueueMember applications? Or even the AddQueueMember and RemoveQueueMember applications? I'm trying to set these applications up to function in relation to the agent number, rather than the extension the agent is at. I'm not having much luck. Anybody have any pointers or suggestions on how to get these applications working based on the agent id instead of the interface (which is basically the phone extension they are at)? Does it seem silly to anyone elsethat AgentCallbackLogin and AgentLogin work relative to an Agent ID, but PauseQueueMamber works relative to the interface? Makes things difficult to manage. I mean, PauseQueueMember actually pauses theAgent ona single or all Queues, sothere must be a way to pass it the Agent ID rather than theextension. Perhaps Pause/UnpauseQueueMember needs an overhaul or perhaps we need a PauseAgent and UnpauseAgent... Any help on this would be GREATLY appreciated!
