[asterisk-users] High utilization with SIP registration
Greetings all, I have a problem with a PBX that I manage. The system has 2 AVM Fritz boards connected to two BRI ISDN services using chan_capi in addition to several SIP trunks going out to Internet based providers for call termination via the Internet. They experience problems when the Internet connection goes down. Obviously the SIP trunks are lost. However the strange thing is that calls are dropped on the capi channels as well during these Internet outages. One of the engineers that I work with felt that the problem was due to Asterisk persistantly trying to re register the SIP services and was using up too much CPU in the process. In fact he was able to workaround the problem temporarily by commenting out the SIP registration in sip.conf, which would confirm his theory. I suppose my question is. Has anyone else seen this sort of behaviour before? Is there any SIP settings that we should be including to try to slow down the SIP registration so that it doesn't use up too many system resources?

Hi to all. I've registred my Asterisk 1.2.12.1 to a VoIP Service Provider and I've some problem with outgoing calls: there is a big delay for bidirectional audio flow. By traces, I've observed that several 200 OK SIP messages are sent by my SIP Provider until ACK is riceved. Maybe the 200 OK messages sequence freezes Asterisk introducing delay for biderctional audio flow. Can anyone tell me if there is some option to set in order to manage sip messages time or similar? Moreover..when I attempt to make an outgoing call with option canreinvite=yes, Asterisk notifies the follow message?

It worked very fine for a few days. After that, I configured PSTN (Digium 04B and 20B) and making outgoing and receive incoming calls. After that, SIP protocol was down and unable to make calls to USA using Teliax using SIP. So, I configured IAX2 Teliax account and its working fine now. Why SIP protocol was down?My Second Experience:I have installed Trixbox ISO image in a system and configured as mentioned above. Now, I have faced the same problem. After configuring PSTN only, SIP protocol was dead. What may be the reason?Error Message: When I am making call to USA using Teliax service, it is telling that "All circutis are busy. Please try call later. Thank you".Please share your feelings and experiences. Looking forward to your response. Thank you.Regards,Chandra. All-new Yahoo!

An xlite softphone reports ~ 5ms regardless of what computer it's installed on. I have two 7960 phones with 7.4 firmware and sip show peers tells me that response time is 70 and 72 ms. Hope this helps. I can't tell you why either, but a ping from a linux command line shows sub-millisecond response (phone and asterisk on same lan segment), while the qualify response time is around 79 milliseconds. Just taking a pure guess (without doing any packet sniffing) is the qualify method sends a sip packet to the phone and waits for a response. It is entirely possible that qualify ping might involve multiple packet interactions. Also, the qualify ping must essentially pass through all of the asterisk code, IP stack, etc, on both ends. That value would be greater then a simple icmp ping. There are no settings in the cisco phones that would impact this. ___ --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] Comments on new system plan.
Paging: You can also use the server's audio card for paging, if it is close to the main amp. Beware of Bogen or Valcom as they mainly make FXO paging interfaces for trunk lines. Viking makes the paging toys you would want to look at. ABE: ABE is the supported version of Asterisk, same code but someone to call on the phone. I am sure that they can help you with your card. Depending on your comfort level you can select ABE or Public. No real draw backs, one benefit is that buying from Digium will keep the developers in free pizza land for longer. :-) POTS: While more exspensive a PRI T1 would better suit you. Yes it cost more, but it has some advantages. A channel bank is a little handier than an ATA, you just plug in and test to your hearts content. Just did a setup of this size, company was quoted 60k+ from the phone company so don't be afraid to setup PRI, Channelbanks for future testing or use as you will fall way under budget.

This is going to be used in a manufacturing facility with about 22 phones. About 10 of which are office staff. I'm not going to implement call recording, meetme, or queues or anything fancy at this point. I'll be using Polycom 601's and 501's for the office staff and 301's for the plant phones. I've already had a few phones set up in my office to test with and I've got what I need for provisioning figured out. I'll have all the phones set to canreinvite=yes and use the transfer functions of the phone. Voice mail will be provided for office staff. Since I don't have that many phones and everything will be on the LAN I'm just going to stick with ulaw for the codec. The planned server will be an HP Proliant ML110 G3 with a 3Ghz Pentium 630 processor, 1GB of RAM, and two 80GB SATA hard drives in a RAID1 (linux software raid) configuration. I'm planning on using the on-board gigabit network controller. I'll have about 8 POTS lines (no caller id or call waiting) connected to the system. I'm planning on using a Sangoma Remora A20004D (8 FXO with on-board echo canceler). Echo is actually my biggest fear of the whole project. There won't be any faxes coming through the server. For the few analog phones that may be used I'll be using some SPA-3000's I already have on hand for FXS ports. We will have need for overhead paging eventually. This is one area I'm a little unsure of. My current off-the-cuff plan is to use a Budgetone phone with the headset jack plugged into the amp and set to auto-answer. (Saw this on the wiki). I've looked at some of the other devices on the wiki but I'm not sure how to implement them. Any advice would be appreciated. I'm also trying to decide whether I want to use Asterisk Business Edition or stick with the downloaded version. Money really isn't a big issue but I'm not sure what the pros and cons are. I know I would get a hardened version thats not likely to have many bugs and support from Digium, but I'm not sure what version of asterisk it is or what features are in the 1.2 branch that aren't in ABE or vice-versa. I'm assuming ABE is in binary form, will it even work with Sangoma hardware, is it distro sensitive? (I was going to call Digium but ran out of time this week). I think that covers it.

Lee Howard wrote: On Sun, Sep 24, 2006 at 01:58:21PM -0700, Christopher Corn wrote: A couple of faxing methods im confused about. The pass through method, sending fax data over G711 codec versus Relay method, t30 to t38 conversion Can someone explain to me why the pass through method doesn't require t30 to t38 conversion ( or does it do it?)? i believe the conversion to t38 is so that it can be routed through a packet network and then back to t30 so that the fax machine can understand. why is it that if you use a pass through method, and your still passing through a packet network, you dont need to convert to t38 and t30? Be careful about your wording. People here generally refer to pass through as T.38 pass-through and not G.711 pass-through. I think that if you understood how faxing works you would see that your questions here don't really make sense. In traditional PSTN faxing you have a total of two endpoints performing T.30 protocol. In a simplified form, the sender takes scanner image data and modulates it (into an audio waveform) and then passes that audio over the PSTN to the receiver which demodulates it (takes the audio and turns it into data again). As long as the demodulated data is identical to the original data, then everything should be okay... for the most part. However, if you start to consider audio corruption on the PSTN, then that's where difficulties start to ensue. If you have some audio, modulated data, and then you compress it or fracture it or otherwise corrupt it, then there's no possible way that the demodulator is going to be able to come up with the original data. Now introduce VoIP telephony... where a small amount of audio corruption (jitter) is anticipated on the UDP channel... and mix it with faxing and hopefully you can see how it just doesn't work well. VoIP is packetized audio passed over an IP network. Packetized audio is nothing new. ISDN circuits have had it for a long time now. Those circuits are digital - meaning the audio waveform is digitized at 8000 Hz... so the audio is represented with bytes and are packetized into frames. Those traditional digital circuits are designed to prevent any loss of that data. VoIP works similarly, except that the medium is lossy UDP/IP networking. ISDN doesn't packetize voice. ISDN is a strict circuit switched TDM system. Since VoIP works on *IP* networks, and since IP networks already handle data communication very well, there really is no reason to perform the modulation or the demodulation - just send the raw data through. So that's basically the punchline of T.38... it's fax protocol without the traditional modems involved. Then you have FoIP. However, these days the world is a hybrid of VoIP and PSTN environments (mostly PSTN still), and thus anyone using T.38 will need to have a gateway involved somewhere along the call path that can do that traditional modulation/demodulation. That is what the T.38 gateway is. If a T.38 relay does not act as a gateway (i.e. no modulators) then it performs only T.38 pass-through - meaning it only is useful for situations where calls are end-to-end T.38 or where an external FoIP service provider is used. Because of the way things work T.38 gateways will not only need to have traditional modems (hard or soft) but will also need to perform T.30. So when faxing with T.38 and the call is not end-to-end T.38 then you have at least three points along the call path performing T.30 (versus the traditional scenario of just two). So, to answer your questions... Why does using G.711 not require T.38? Because from the viewpoint that the question was given, G.711 and T.38 are competing approaches. T.38 was designed to replace G.711. You can packetize G.711 audio just fine without converting it to anything else. So when faxing with G.711 T.38 is not involved because its basically mimicking the old-style traditional PSTN faxing, except that the audio is passing over a different (less-reliable) medium. So the reason that T.38 exists is because UDP/IP is lossy and is not therefore reliable for the purposes of faxing with G.711 unless the communication can be guaranteed to be nearly lossless. For those that work on lossy channels, G.711 will just not work reliably. Lossless channels are only a part of it. If you look at http://www.soft-switch.org/foip-with-real-atas.html you will see examples of other problems that happen with a wide range of ATAs. Once that have FAX support modes, yet cann't possibly ever work with FAX.

Re: [asterisk-users] progress problems from SIP to PRI
Hi Steve! The problem is following PSTN PSTN | | | | E1 E1 | | PBX1--E1--Asterisk1---SIP---Asterisk2--E1--PBX2 2 offices. Asterisk between the PBX and the PSTN. Calls between the offices are routed directly via SIP (toll bypass). SETUP--- --SETUPACK-- ---INVITE--- ---100-- SETUP--- ---183-- --PROGRESS-- --SETUPACK-- --CALLPROCEEDING-- --ALERTING ---180-- --CALLPROCEEDING-- --ALERTING A user at PBX1 call a user at PBX2. Asterisk 2 sends 183 immediately after the SETUP from Asterisk2 to PBX2. This causes Asterisk1 to generate a PROGRESS message. Thus PBX1 activates inband audio. But, as PBX2 does not generate inband audio, the users at PBX1 do not hear ringback. As you can see, the 183 causes Asterisk go signal PROGRESS with inband audio although there is no inband audio (if there would be inband audio PBX2 would send PROGRESS too). My reading of this is that the 183 message you describe is perfectly legal and appropriate. The PRI has made progress by sending a SETUP request. IMO that's not a real progress. And as you see from the signaling, at site 1 there is a PROGRESS message which is not at site 2. regards klaus Steve Davies wrote: On 9/25/06, Klaus Darilion [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi!

Re: [asterisk-users] OT: Opinions on Aastra 480i CT?
I don't have experience using the 480i CT, only using the 9112i, so you should take what I say with a grain of salt. I have been nothing but impressed with this phone. In terms of being friendly with *, they dedicate a section of their manual to asterisk configuration, which makes things go quite smoothly (not that the configuration is particularly difficult: its a totally standard SIP setup). As for the No hold, no one-touch voicemail, this isn't strictly true. It has programmable soft-keys, and though I haven't experimented that extensively with them, they can be configured to dial a line (i.e. your voicemail), or park a call (i.e. hold). There's also other cool features, like the ability to write custom menus for the phone, that get called over HTTP. All in all, my 9112i has been pretty good (I had a few lockups, but none since I upgraded the firmware), and I would say its definitely worth buying one to see if it will work for your needs. --Brian On Mon, Sep 25, 2006 at 10:48:00AM -0400, Richard wrote: It's excellent home phone.

It's excellent home phone. I wouldn't use it in a business environment. No hold, no one-touch voicemail. However, it works great! aw crap, that's a biggie but I think I can work around it, teach the user to dial *98 for voicemail, *700 for park and hash to transfer, currently the users dial feature-9-8-1 for voicemail right now so they are used to doing things the hard way.

Lets say you have a cluster of, say, 10 Asterisk servers.

Even though it says many handsets per base, in reality you should probably limit it to 1 per base as the system can only handle 2 active voice streams at a time and annoyingly enough, only one of them can be G.729, something about the phone does not have enough processor power to encode 2 G.729 streams at a time.

You could also, as you say, limit the number of registration servers (i.e. servers doing both the registration and DUNDi) and then only query to them. I'm sure the hybrid model you suggest would work as well although it'd need testing to see whether you got more performance out of splitting the DUNDI and registration roles or just adding more dual-purpose machines.

[asterisk-users] channel.c: Nobody there, continuing...
I'm seeing channel.c: Nobody there, continuing... in the asterisk full.log. This error is repeated 20+ times per second when it occurs. I thought this problem was specific to one PBX that performs call recording on all the call queues, but after disabling all call recording, the error persists, although less often. The system was hanging badly requiring daily reboots, however since disabling call recording, the system has stabilized. I've since noticed this behavior on another less loaded system. The asterisk versions are 1.2.11 and 1.2.9.1 respectively, and both are running Trixbox. Other systems running older versions of Asterisk, some with AMP/FreePBX don't seem to exhibit this problem. At this point I'm not sure if this is specific to Trixbox, or a problem with later versions of Asterisk. Google turns up very little regarding this error, and the few bugs listed at bugs.digium.com appear to be unrelated. Anyone seen this issue and know what is causing it?

Realtime is resource intensive, requiring many queries to perform simple lookups. We can easily create multiple virtual IP address, and since each virtual IP address can bind to port 5060, each phone can register with domain.com:5060 without a problem. We don't need multiple instances to access hardware as this is a SIP only solution. Our PSTN access is via external Audiocodes gateways, not via Digium T1 cards. The dial plan was not able to handle the complexity we needed (for example the MySQL() application command could not do nested queries), and so right now, we have a 2000 line python script and several very complex MySQL stored procedures in order to fulfull our requirements.

you didn't listen. SIP only. Anyone can understand that multiple instances on the same machine can't touch the same hardware.

[asterisk-users] TDM2400P vs Sangoma A200
Greetings List, I'm putting together a plan for a new Asterisk system and I'm trying to decided on an interface card to use. I was originally planning on using a Sangoma A200 but now I'm considering a Digium TDM2400P. The server is large enough to accommodate the full sized TDM and I'll be using 8 FXO channels so molex power connectors aren't an issue. The connector will be slightly more to deal with but not a biggie. Either card I get will have the on-board echo canceler. For the extra $150 for the TDM, not having to mess with two sets of drivers is pretty appealing. Anyone have experience with both cards to give advice one way or the other? (And in case anyone suggests I just go with a PRI, I can't. I'm stuck with POTS lines for now).

Re: [asterisk-users] Running Multiple Instances of Asterisk
But if I segment my zap channels, that shouldn't be an issue, correct? I.e. Instance 1 = Port 1, Instance 2 = Port 2, etc. Of course, you are also assuming there is Zap channels, as I believe he is using a gateway, which takes that out of the equation.

[asterisk-users] How to stream audio to external app for speech recognition and recognize dtmf in parallel ?
Hi, we're writting interface module for our speech recognition system. We would like to export stream of audio samples to external app, but to preserve dtmf recognition and dialplan progress. I wonder if recording application would be a good start for that (recording application obviously streams audio and makes recording out of it in parallel) We're also interested in best way to report speech recognition results back Best way would be to be able to call extension in dialplan, for instance : 1, DTMF 1 2, DTMF 2 support, spoken word support sales, spoken word sales -- but also putting results in variable would be probably fine Any advice how to develope such scenario ? What is the best module code to start with ? Any similar solutions ?
