Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk version survey
As I said before. I would like to see a much more comprehensive survey complete with names or nicknames if supplied. Asterisk version, in-house patches or programming, OS, preferred hardware (server, phones, cards) Then more bio on the respondent. Years in data and also telephony field, other phone systems certified or capable of deploying or servicing. Number of installs, number of stations/trunks, function of deployments. Maybe even an breakdown on age group as well as general comments. If $9 can put that survey together in a comprehensible set of questions and results, I will pay the $9.

[asterisk-users] Sip to ATA?
Currently running two POTS lines into an asterisk system. Analog and SIP on premises. Being in the sticks, the POTS service is abysmal for quality, especially in the rain. Recently, cable has become available with VOIP phone. The cost savings are attractive as it can replace several independent services for TV and internet (currently satellite). But, I cannot get much out of them, regarding how the phone service works. All I can get is I plug my existing phones and answering machines into the back of the cable modem and am good to go. I am hesitant to believe that I can simply plug my TDM400P (2fxo/2fxs) into these (ATA ?) jacks and call it good. Any insight? Am I better off ignoring their phone offering and setting myself up with an IAX or SIP provider? (and surplus-ing the card). I would end up needing more than their single line offering with a second line at $30/month (USD). Seems that might make more sense joe a. ___ --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] Asterisk behind a PIX firewall?
Matt, If your phone is using SIP, then you should enable sip inspection (7.x code or above) or fixup sip (6.x code) and have a rule that allows source (wherever you need) inbound on the outside interface to TCP 5060 (SIP port). The sip inspection or fixup should enable the proper ports for the require RTP streams. I had this working through an ASA at some point, but I don't remember if both ends were doing NAT or only one end. I don't know the phone you are talking about, but you also might want to look into STUN or ICE to get beyond the NAT Traversal issue, if that is what's causing the problem. In the Firewall log, are you seeing Denys? or drops? Have you tried debug sip on the firewall console? I've been dealing with several ASA SIP issues lately. SIP trunking with NAT will certainly not work and there is a Cisco Bug that my company discovered when setting up our PBX.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk behind a PIX firewall?
Try to just open port 5060 for SIP signaling on the PIX and also enable the INSPECT SIP rule. That way, your PIX firewall will inspect SIP signalling and open the necessary UDP ports for the RTP. If you have NAT uptream in the network, you should see if in the layer 4 the IPs shown in the SIP messages got rewritten by its public IPs, it should have, or else you'll never get it working right.

[asterisk-users] Attended transfer to Queue
Hi, I will confess immediately that this is only tested on 1.2.24, and I would be interested to know if it happens on 1.4, but I cannot find a bug-tracker entry which represents this issue. Consider a PSTN call which comes into asterisk, and is bridged to a SIP phone. The phone operator then places the call on hold (hold music plays) and a second call is made from this handset to a Queue... Operator can now hear hold music from the queue. The operator then completes the attended transfer, bridging the initial PSTN call to the Queue. The system sees a transfer being completed, and stops MOH on both of the channels. This means that the caller is correctly transferred to a queue, but the MOH has been stopped, and they hear silence. While this behaviour is expected, it is not ideal and if anyone can point me at a workaround, or an existing bug-tracker entry, I would be most grateful.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk behind a PIX firewall?
Shlomo, My understanding is I have to do a no fixup sip 5060. This from Cisco. Without doing the no fixup the registration ports get all mangled. On Nov 27, 2007 10:11 AM, Shlomo Dubrowin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Matt, If your phone is using SIP, then you should enable sip inspection (7.xcode or above) or fixup sip ( 6.x code) and have a rule that allows source (wherever you need) inbound on the outside interface to TCP 5060 (SIP port). The sip inspection or fixup should enable the proper ports for the require RTP streams. I had this working through an ASA at some point, but I don't remember if both ends were doing NAT or only one end. I don't know the phone you are talking about, but you also might want to look into STUN or ICE to get beyond the NAT Traversal issue, if that is what's causing the problem. In the Firewall log, are you seeing Denys? or drops? Have you tried debug sip on the firewall console? I've been dealing with several ASA SIP issues lately. SIP trunking with NAT will certainly not work and there is a Cisco Bug that my company discovered when setting up our PBX.

[asterisk-users] Snom phones, blinking lights and call pickup
Hi! I have the following questions/problems with * 1.4. We have several Snom phones (320 and 360). Hints are configured in extensions.conf (core show hints shows the correct values). My Snom phone is registered to some numbers (validated by using sip show subscriptions). I see the lights blinking if someone calls the subscribed number and steady lights if the call is established. So far, so good. What I want now is that I can see the number of the caller in my display and can pickup the call by pressing the blinking lights. I can pickup the call using the pickup extension. IIRC there is some pickup magic with Snom firmware 7.x. But this doesn’t solve my problem with the missing number in the display. A little example: Person A calls Person B. I am subscribed to B’s number. My Snom light is blinking. Now I want to see the number and be able to pickup the call. If I can restrict this bevaviour with pickupgroups, this would be great. When I used * 1.2, the example above would result in the displayed message „From B to B” in the phone which was quite useless (I don’t see who called), but by pressing the blinking light I could pickup the call. This is a part of my sip.conf for a snom phone: [404] type=friend context=sip callerid=”Stephan Seitz” 404 username=404 secret=secret host=dynamic defaultip=10.10.30.103 canreinvite=no mailbox=404 vmexten=1404 call-limit=1 useclientcode=yes subscribecontext = sip notifyringing = yes notifyhold=yes dtmfmode = rfc2833 Any hints how to solve the problem are welcome.

Re: [asterisk-users] Sip to ATA?
Yes, you would just plug the FXO ports directly into the cable modem and it would work. In my experience the cable media gateways (Arris and Motorola) are more robust than VoIP ATAs. They can provide polarity reversal on disconnect, can power a higher REN, and even have built-in batteries to keep the phones running when the power goes out (the battery only powers the phones, not the Internet connection). YMMV based on your local cable co's implementation. From a financial standpoint, I think you would be better off with a SIP/IAX trunk, because cable telephone service is taxed just like regular POTS service, adding 40%+ to the bill. - Original Message - From: Joe Acquisto [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Sent: Tuesday, November 27, 2007 9:01 AM Subject: [asterisk-users] Sip to ATA? Currently running two POTS lines into an asterisk system. Analog and SIP on premises. Being in the sticks, the POTS service is abysmal for quality, especially in the rain. Recently, cable has become available with VOIP phone. The cost savings are attractive as it can replace several independent services for TV and internet (currently satellite). But, I cannot get much out of them, regarding how the phone service works. All I can get is I plug my existing phones and answering machines into the back of the cable modem and am good to go. I am hesitant to believe that I can simply plug my TDM400P (2fxo/2fxs) into these (ATA ?) jacks and call it good. Any insight? Am I better off ignoring their phone offering and setting myself up with an IAX or SIP provider? (and surplus-ing the card).

[asterisk-users] Urgent question.
Our provider gives us four PRIs as a trunk group hunt group. Meaning, the provider's switch will cycle through B channels in span 1, 2, 3, ... until it finds one that is available. I have moved spans 2-4 onto another machine. But we have one remaining box with a PRI full of calls and I don't know what to do with them; the box is failing, but dropping them by simply yanking the PRI is not acceptable from a business POV. Sending Congestion() or Busy() in the dial plan wouldn't work because the far-end switch would simply pass that onto the subscriber, rather interpreting it to mean that the B channel is unavailable and it should go on to other T1s in the trunk group.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk API Manager
So you'd be making 100 connections/minute, which is pretty relentless. That's like five connections, five requests sent, five responses received, and five disconnects, /every/ three seconds. And the likelihood of all 100 users to be spread out evenly over a minute doesn't seem very high. I think your box would be pretty busy with that. Astmanproxy would be indicated. Moj Anthony Chapellier wrote: However I wanted to get periodic infos about queued users (position in queue) only. So I thought I could make a program sending periodic requests to asterisk manager. Is it really bad to bother asterisk manager with frequently and periodic requests sent by mutiple users (we could say maybe 100 users with a request every minute) ?

Re: [asterisk-users] Semi-OT Part 2: Videophone
We've used the Grandstream video phone quite a bit, and I have to say, I'm considerably impressed with its quality. YES, it's a Grandstream (and has the usual quirks and annoyances that one has come to expect now and again), but the quality of the screen and camera are both excellent, and with the later firmware handling H263 as well as H264, it meshes quite well with many of the software video-capable phones out there such as Ekiga and X-Lite v3/eyeBeam. Sorry... no vmukti.com response from me, I'm afraid. N. Ken Williams wrote: Following the recommendations here I've ordered a couple different Polycom Aastra phones to play with speaker phones.

[asterisk-users] Can Asterisk act like an ISP dialin server to data callls from Sipura 3000 or other ATA connected devices ?
Hi, I have an older phone with touch screen from Philips. It have it connected to Sipura 3000 FXS port and majority of features work ok. But phone also has touchscreen and web browser that I'd love to use for accessing my local web pages. But the phone only allows me to setup ISP phone number (username and password) and it wants to call it to get to Internet. Since it is connected to Sipura3000, call can come to Asterisk and I'd love to somehow fool that device and connect it to local web pages ? I guess I could somehow mimic ISP internet calling feature on local Asterisk server, but have no clue even where to start searching ... Any advice ?

I don't know what to say I have not used the Pirelli phone but at the same time it is the same ODM as most of the Linksys and D-Link phone and I have not been too pleased with those. They work. They roam ok but they also lock up every so often and the call quality isnt the best. You can tell the G729 codec is very taxing on the device it can take 2 sec for the phone to respond to a keypress. Hello *, I have the Pirelli phone (there are two actually, I have the bar-type one, I think it's L10) in daily use, both GSM (O2 Germany) and WLAN (registered to Asterisk of course - behind OpenWRT boxes, FritzBoxes, D-Link APs whatever is there). I had the latest firmware in August, did not check back since. In my opinion, this phone is not ready for production use for regular users. It works really nice in the short run, but a few things make it unacceptable or at least lack for my approval as a well-done product: - Connection loss on DHCP expiry (twice yet) - Relatively poor Wifi signal strength, compared to other Wifi devices - frequent lockups, which require battery removal and clock reprogramming: - if you power on the phone while it is on charger power - if you receive a WIFI call while you have a WLAN call, and the WIFI call is from the same contact in the phone book - plugging in, unplugging, plugging in headset fast in a row - no SIP voicemail support, GSM voicebox only (pressing 1) - slow user interface It further lacks - one-touch silent mode - you can only kind of emulate that - proper headset support - any key accept call does _not_ work, although it is a separate choice from accept key accept call. Auto-accept works OK though. Vibra seems to _not_ work once a headset is plugged in... or at least not always. - one-digit press in main menu to open the menu: It works in the submenues, but you always need to navigate the main menu with the arrow controls - quick mode switch WLAN on/off - if you are out of home range, WLAN seems to suck lots of battery. - display of CALLERID(name), currently only CALLERID(num) is displayed I would also like a modus which is if no known network is in range, connect to any unencrypted network you can get that seems to have network connectivity. This should of course be optional. That said, for my personal uses it is OK, lightyears in front of the two UTStarcom phones I also had in daily use. Well, while they worked anyway. Both the good WPA support (basically broken in the UTS) and the GSM function make me like it. The phone book (multiple entries) is great, although it would be nice to see from which of the numbers listed the call is coming (call Sam back on his mobile, or is he at home?) I believe most of the problems I see could be solved in software quite easily, but until they are, I would not give it to my users, rather I would go with DECT, Siemens Gigaset ISDN, on FritzBoxen internal S0 bus, because this combination I know works absolutely perfect, as good as ISDN, and that means a lot. I have been using the Pirelli for five or six months, and keep using it because the GSM/WLAN combo is just the killer app on it. It sucks a bit more than my regular mobile phone (which I sometimes carry instead, I have a Dual-SIM contract), but for me all mobiles suck. I have thin fingers, but using mobile keypads always makes me feel like having jelly sticks on my hands. That is why I love the BudgeTone 100 phone :-P Best regards, Anselm P.S.: Your fingers are too fat to dial - please mash the keys for your free dialing wand -- phone announcement in Simpsons King Size Homer ___ --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] Can Asterisk act like an ISP dialin server to data callls from Sipura 3000 or other ATA connected devices ?
Am Dienstag, den 27.11.2007, 18:00 +0100 schrieb Robert Rozman: Hi, I have an older phone with touch screen from Philips. It have it connected to Sipura 3000 FXS port and majority of features work ok. But phone also has touchscreen and web browser that I'd love to use for accessing my local web pages. But the phone only allows me to setup ISP phone number (username and password) and it wants to call it to get to Internet. Since it is connected to Sipura3000, call can come to Asterisk and I'd love to somehow fool that device and connect it to local web pages ? I guess I could somehow mimic ISP internet calling feature on local Asterisk server, but have no clue even where to start searching ... Any advice ? Hi Robert, I researched for something similar about a year ago, and came up with nothing really worth the work. If you can, try to get another ATA that has a real, old-fashioned serial modem plugged into it, and limit that modem to 9600. I think more than that will not work reliably, but you could of course try. The only working implementation of software emulating a modem in conjunction with asterisk I have seen is fax-related, and even there I read from several people that anything better than 9600 is hardly ever achieved. The code there is cranked into fax-use though, not modem use, which would require the PPP bytestream to be off-handed instead of fax parsing. Perhaps iaxmodem would do that No idea. I'd be interested in how you get that working, if you do indeed.

Re: [asterisk-users] Snom phones, blinking lights and call pickup
Hi! 2. if the call is not answered after a short time, a light (phone layout is similiar to the Snom phones) begins to blink at the monitor phones; caller ID and the target number are displayed; if you press the button next to the blinking light, you pick-up the call; I don't think you will be able to get the exact same behaviour arranged with asterisk and snom, however there are three choices for you that get quite close: 1. Use group dial like in Dial(SIP/1SIP/2) and have your monitor phones each act as SIP/2 to SIP/6 with dedicated (!) lines that have their ringer set to silent. You might want to adjust the Caller ID name to prefix it with the called number like to 123: from 4567890. The SNOMs have 12 lines, so why not actually use some of them ... A variation of this: Record a new ringer sound that is a) long and b) has 10+ seconds silence at the beginning, and let the monitoring SNOMs use that. 2. Take a closer look at the new SLA functionality in Asterisk 1.4 (shared line appearance), the Wiki has it all including a link to the blog that explains it all in detail 3. Stay with your current solution, and add a SIP MESSAGE sent using sipsak using System() that informs the monitoring phones of the caller ID; I haven't tested this particular case so I am not sure if this SIP MESSAGE would not be immediately overwritten on the phone's display with other data like (useless) pick-up information.

Re: [asterisk-users] Urgent question.
If the hunt-group is properly done, you should be able to busy-out members of a trunk for maintenance. Otherwise, if the individual trunks have numbers (unpublished) assigned to all the circuits in the group, you could always send a Redirect() to that any of the other trunks' numbers. -Philip Alex Balashov wrote: Our provider gives us four PRIs as a trunk group hunt group. Meaning, the provider's switch will cycle through B channels in span 1, 2, 3, ... until it finds one that is available. I have moved spans 2-4 onto another machine. But we have one remaining box with a PRI full of calls and I don't know what to do with them; the box is failing, but dropping them by simply yanking the PRI is not acceptable from a business POV. Sending Congestion() or Busy() in the dial plan wouldn't work because the far-end switch would simply pass that onto the subscriber, rather interpreting it to mean that the B channel is unavailable and it should go on to other T1s in the trunk group.

Re: [asterisk-users] Urgent question.
Anyone have an application to robo-dial an outgoing conference call? ;-) You could tie up all your circuits with outbound calls... If you hairpin them at the switch, you shouldn't incur any usage costs... Steve Totaro wrote: To answer the question, there is currently no way to busy out a channel except to put it in use.
