Re: [asterisk-users] PRI over T1 calls dropping, cause 100
The T1 was setup as tie line, not a trunk. The Bell guy tried setting up the line 2 ways: 1. As a trunk. This did not work because: a) When he typed in the access code for the trunk on a phone set (and then any numbers), the call never appeared on the Asterisk side. b) The Bell guy said that unless Asterisk was generating a dialtone, a trunk would not work. (I struggled to understand these explanations...but figured I must be missing something) 2. As a tie line. This sort of worked because a) When he typed the access code for the tie line on a phone set, he got a second dial tone. b) When he dialed any digits thereafter, the call was handed across the T1 and I saw it on the asterisk side.

[asterisk-users] Best cheap card to use for home Asterisk system???
Hi all - I'm building an Asterisk system (Trix2.2) for the house- I'd like to do the following things: I have a single phone line (happens to be Charter Communications VOIP, but I have their ATA and they've connected to red/green pair in the house wiring) What I'd like to do is this: Get some low-end but reliable card/external adapter which would connect to their ATA and tie into Asterisk to take calls and faxes I'm assuming this should be something with one FXO and one FXS port to connect the incoming line to and to connect the red/green wiring in the house to. I don't mind if all the house phones ring at one time for the moment, as line 2 on them are the Asterisk extensions. Whatever I use must also have failover capability, such that when Asterisk is not working right (server down completely OR just not responding) then the unit fails over and cross connects and makes things work just as is normally the case with Charter only. Unfortunately, I don't have a budget of hundreds of dollars for a true Digium multiport card - I've already built out Asterisk and have a Cisco ATA supporting line 2 on a couple of cordless phones, but I'd like to have the failover piece so that if * starts failing, the home phones still work..

Tim Reimers wrote: I have a single phone line (happens to be Charter Communications VOIP, but I have their ATA and they’ve connected to red/green pair in the house wiring) Ok. so they've installed an ATA which connects your analog phones to their VoIP (perhaps SIP) service. What I’d like to do is this: Get some low-end but reliable card/external adapter which would connect to their ATA and tie into Asterisk to take calls and faxes OK. Since we've established above that Charter's service is VoIP converted to analog, AND since Asterisk isn't really designed to work with fax over IP it is safe to say that it's not worth the effort to attempt to get this to work. I have relatives who have Time Warner's offering and even a stand alone fax machine will not work reliably over their internet phone service. Hell the audio quality is crap most of the time. I’m assuming this should be something with one FXO and one FXS port to connect the incoming line to and to connect the red/green wiring in the house to. I'm not sure if you're familiar with the Canadian television show that is popular on PBS in the US, but this sounds alot like the guy on the Red Green Show using duct tape to fix things. If you really want to use Asterisk, you'd be better off getting an account with a SIP provider and using an FXS adapter to feed line 2 on your phones similar to what Charter is doing with line 1. Linksys makes a decent adapter which would suit this purpose. Good luck!

There are numerous places where the extension string could be getting truncated, so you'll have to look some more: 1) On the console, with verbose set to 3 or higher, when the dialplan is executed, are you showing all of the numbers? 2) If you run wireshark on the wire, does the IAX2 packet show all of the numbers in the CALLED_NUMBER IE? Also, you should know that in trunk, there is a much better way of transmitting independent bits of data about the call, called IAXVARS. We're presently looking at abstracting this into something a bit more protocol independent, but that's the way it is presently. -- Tilghman ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [asterisk-users] (no subject)
We have used the Grandstream GPX2000, HT503 and GXW4104 gateways. Quality is in all cases are on the lower end. The quality I refer to is buggy software and poor call quality. I have been involved with Telecom since the early 80s and dealt with a lot of phone systems. The Grandstream phones just plain feel cheap. Real Walmart quality, not professional business class equipment. The phone functioned ok and was super easy to setup but complaints of echo and poor volume levels were common. They may be better as we have not used them in over 6 months. We have recently used their gateways due to good pricing and their economics fit our solution base well but ran into issues with them. I believe their gateways will get improved as both are new and on early firmware releases. However, we got upset with poor support. Either no call back at all or a useless email a day later with little to no information to help solve our issue. In Grandstream's defense it may be we are just too small to matter and that's ok. We prefer to go elsewhere and deliver product that when the average user picks it up to talk on it they say this is quality stuff. Asterisk is as talented as the firm that programs it BUT the phone is crucial in the end user's system satisfaction. Regardless of what you put in the back room the phone IS the device that sets the impression to your client if you are delivering a quality solution. We would do Cisco because it is high quality but we don't care to fight with the configuration or licensing issues. We would do Polycom, and probably will, but have not had the time to jump to through the hoops needed to acquire good enough pricing to make money selling them. We feel Aastra is a good compromise in delivering quality product to make the customer happy with their decision while still making us to make some sort of small profit for our time. It's solid and provides a quality feel and function. This said, Grandstream is not junk and this is not meant to be a Grandstream rant. I would like to apologize if I jumped in too quick sounding that way. Grandstream is just the lower end of quality and should be deployed in applications where the client is willing to accept that. That's not our marketplace. If you want easy to configure, low cost, slam dunk Asterisk deployments then Grandstream works. But the end result will not be as good if you build a system with Cisco, Polycom, Snom, or Aastra. We've even tested Avaya 46XX phones on Asterisk. They sound GREAT! Probably one of the best. We just can't get Asterisk to light the messaging waiting light on the phone. Arrggg! You need to decide what your marketplace offering is and what your clients are willing to accept. If call quality is the most important then our testing shows nobody beats Polycom or Avaya. Someday we are going to beat the Avaya message waiting light issue. If quality of deskset feel is the most important factor them Avaya and Cisco stand out as best. We will not put configuration into a factor simply because the customer uses the tool we are expected to configure it to their needs. We won't sell them any device based on it being easier for us to configure. I would like to hear what people say about Snom as their sets look very nice. Sorry for the novel, all I really wanted to express is Grandstream is cheap, look before you jump. Good luck on your decision...

Re: [asterisk-users] (no subject)
Honestly, Its my opinion that the Aastra phones are very lacking in the firmware department. If they could get that sorted out I wouldn't mind using them. But for now there are too many NAT issues mostly caused because they use an OLD version of Broadcom CallCtrl. Why they use an ancient version is beyond me but the phones dont even have a NAT keepalive option. They promise updates to their firmware but then they only fix minor bugs. Grandstream are ok. But as others have said their support is very lacking. I've had products of theirs behave very oddly like operate and refuse to apply any settings no matter what and not allow a factory reset... paperweight. I'd personally use Polycom in the situations where there's no NAT and the Linksys SPA-phones where you do have NAT.

Re: [asterisk-users] Large voicemail
Probably the best option is store the messages in IMAP and the userdate in a database. Honestly I dont think there is an issue with any number of mailboxes the issue is going to be how many calls at once your system can handle or how well your architecture scales to handle multiple machines. Can your storage handle 5,000 mails being recorded at once? Just trying to sort out the thousand different aspects of it all in my mind right now I say you give it a try but expect to write your own voicemail fron the ground up and not necessarily based on Asterisk. Then again, I could be wrong. On 10/25/07, Pepo [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am trying to use Asterisk as the voicemail system of the TELCO where I work.

The issue is that the code has exceptions to the GPL, to allow it to be linked to certain patented codecs, for example, without violating patent licenses or the GPL. SpanDSP, on the other hand, is not dual licensed, so you cannot run, for example, both G.729 and SpanDSP in the same binary (legally), since the pure GPL license of SpanDSP pollutes the Asterisk binary to require the same of the G.729 codec (which is not permissible until the patents on G.729 expire). -- Tilghman ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Re: [asterisk-users] (no subject)
We have Cisco 9760 for executives and Aastra 9112i for everybody else. We started with Grandstream, don't remember the model, cost around $80 USD but it had bad audio quality and echo problems (running asterisk 1.09). The quality of construction felt poor, like a toy phone. We replaced them with the Aastra for double the cost and the quality improved dramatically. Audio quality was much better and echo problems all but eliminated. This phone also feels more solid. There are a few areas that are not perfect; the speaker phone is good not excellent and we have had to replace a couple of phones because they have stopped working. Over all I would say not bad for the price especially if they are for general use. We had to upgrade from the Aastra phones for our executives because they needed very good audio for both handset and speaker phone. We are using Cisco 9760's for them and have had no problems with quality. Plus they have a very solid feel. My question to the list is: As I need to add phones I am considering buying used Cisco 9760's. Is there any difference with the 9760G? I have heard that the 9761's have even better audio quality. Our main requirement is audio quality, our users do not need a lot of features on their phones.

[asterisk-users] Problem with flash hook
Hi, I facing a problem with flash hook. When ever I do a flash hook to place an extsing call on hold, the call gets disconnected. The debugs on Asterisk shows that 'on hook event detected' when I press the flash button on the phone. The setup is like this Asterisk box with T1 cards and FXS cards. The T1 card is connected to an IAD and configured for ISDN PRI lines. Analog phones come out of the FXS cards. Phone 1 Phone 2 --FXS card . Asterisk. T1 card ISDN PRI=IAD +IP Phone 3 The Asterisk is configured to plce calls on one of the T1 ports/channels based on the dial plan. ie, if I dial 94XX then the call will be placed on a channel in the 4th T1 port which is connected to the IAD. I am able to make calls using this setup. But I am not able to put the call on hold using a flash hook. The call gets disconnected when the flash button is pressed.

We park the calls by transferring to extension 7000, which is our parking extension. We have both Zap and SIP extensions, and I haven't been able to see a pattern if its related to one or the other. The primary person answering the phone is using a SIP phone (Grandstream GXP-2000), we have a small number of analog phones left (2), and other SIP phones (mostly Polycom).

[asterisk-users] Connection astrisk to a RAS (portmaster)
Here's my planed setup : PRI from telco -- (port 1 of A104d) * (port 2 of A104d) -- PM3 The PM3, for those who don't know is lucent's portmaster RAS dial-up router. I had setup asterisk, zaptel, libpri, wanpipe (as I have sangoma's cards). In wancfg, I have port 1 as TDM_VOICE, with hardware echo on, span 1. Port 2 is TDM_VOICE, without hw echo, Clock as master, reference 0 (for the time being, I'm still not hooked up with my pri, will be 1 in the future), span 2. I alswo had to enable High Impedance on port 2 to operate without alarms. Zaptel.conf: loadzone=us defaultzone=us #Sangoma A104 port 1 [slot:12 bus:0 span: 1] span=1,1,0,esf,b8zs bchan=1-23 dchan=24 #Sangoma A104 port 2 [slot:12 bus:0 span: 2] span=2,0,0,esf,b8zs bchan=25-47 dchan=48 zapata.conf (part of) : ;Sangoma A104 port 1 [slot:12 bus:0 span: 1] switchtype=national pridialplan=unknown context=demo group=1 signalling=pri_cpe channel = 1-23 ;Sangoma A104 port 2 [slot:12 bus:0 span: 2] switchtype=national pridialplan=unknown context=demo group=2 signalling=pri_net channel = 25-47 Now, after start wanpipe and asterisk, my PM3 shows that the line is up (via a t1 cross-over cable). I see that the channels are idle and waiting. On * console, I get : Primary D-Channel on span 2 up All the time I also get sometime : == Primary D-Channel on span 2 down [Oct 31 20:50:53] WARNING[10250]: chan_zap.c:2393 pri_find_dchan: No D-channels available! Using Primary channel 48 as D-channel anyway! == Primary D-Channel on span 2 up [Oct 31 20:51:05] ERROR[10250]: chan_zap.c:8178 zt_pri_error: !! Got reject for frame 1, but we only have others! In my extensions.conf, I have : exten = 1234567,1,Dial(Zap/g2/${EXTEN}) Whem I trie that extension via a softphone, I hear hald a ring, and nothing else. The d-channel up continue to appear on the console. Any help would be appriciated.

Re: [asterisk-users] hostname in MySQL CDR records

Is there a better way than using the userfield and adding SetCDRUserfield for every call to set the userfield to the name of the host? If you set systemname in asterisk.conf, that prefix will become part of the uniqueid field. You'll probably need to widen that field, though. -- Tilghman ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

But I need the hostname included with each record for monitoring purposes. Is there a better way than using the userfield and adding SetCDRUserfield for every call to set the userfield to the name of the host? Personally, I think the userfield is a hack. I prefer to add properly named columns to the cdrs table using cdr_addon_mysql. It makes everything so much more obvious -- especially when you don't have to cram several values into the singularly obtuse userfield. I prefer to retrieve the CDRs rather than send them. This way, you only have a single script to retrieve all of the remote CDRs and the script is simpler since you don't have to poll a directory and try to figure out if the remote transfer has finished so you don't process a partial file. It also makes it easier to handle a remote host that is temporarily unavailable. I retrieve the CDRs from remote hosts using a script that looks like this snippet: # for each host for HOST in ${HOST_LIST} do # mark the records to be exported mysql\ ${USER_AUTH}\ --database=mumble\ --execute=update cdrs set disposition = 'EXPORTING'\ --host=${HOST} # dump the cdrs mysqldump\ ${USER_AUTH}\ --host=${HOST}\ --no-create-info\ --skip-opt\ --where=disposition = 'EXPORTING'\ mumble\ cdrs\ /tmp/${HOST}.sql # load the cdrs into our database mysql\ ${USER_AUTH}\ --database=mumble\ --host=localhost\ /tmp/${HOST}.sql # delete the exported records mysql ${USER_AUTH}\ --database=mumble\ --execute=delete from cdrs where disposition = 'EXPORTING'\ --host=${HOST} # end of hosts loop done I am misusing the existing disposition column, but I never use it in my application anyway :) Thanks in advance, Steve Edwards [EMAIL PROTECTED] Voice: +1-760-468-3867 PST Newline Fax: +1-760-731-3000 ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

You can purchase them from Digium: http://store.digium.com/productview.php?category_id=5product_code=8G729CODECmain_category_id=5 $10 each. Install one license for each simultaneous g792 call you expect to take on the asterisk box and off you go. There are free versions of g729 avalable, but if your country is compatable with the various (US) patent laws then you ought to pay the license fee to stay legal.
