Re: [asterisk-users] Question about PCI Slots for DIGIUMs Boards

2008-03-29 Thread Al Baker
Detailed specs for the types of PCI slots on the system were posted 
each and every time I posted int the line

I an considering using *your High Density T*1 cards on a number of 
servers we are considering purchasing. The _VENDOR lists_ that his 
_SYSTEM has:
_
_PCI Express_*: _two x8 slots*_, _two x8 low profile slots*_; *_PCI-X: 
64-bit/100MHz_* 

I just do not know how to ask any more clearly, but as always I am open 
to suggestions.

*_To Jared Smith  - THANK YOU VERY MUCH 
_*

Steve Totaro wrote:
 Are you looking to purchase a server or just looking for a card for an
 existing server?

 Either way, post the specs from the manufacturer (and also make sure
 those slots are open)

 You will get your answer pretty quickly, and much less painfully this way.

 Thanks,
 Steve Totaro

   Here is the Confusion   - 1)  Can ANY of your QUAD cards go in the PCI

  Yes, the *TE420B *will fit.  It's a 4-port T1/E1/J1/PRI card with echo
  cancellation on-board.  It only fits in PCI Express slots.


  
  2  Can ANY of your QUAD cards go in the PCI 
 Express - two x8 LOW Profile Slots  - Yes or No ?

  No, none of our PCI Express cards are low-profile (as far as I know)


  3) Can your Quad cards you list as fitting a 
 PCI or PCI-X 3.3 Volt Slots  fit in  the PCI-X: 64-bit/100MHz slot
 OR would I have to ask the vendor Is this 
 PCI-X:  64-bit/100MHz  definitely a 3.3 Volt Slot ?
  Yes - It would absolutely definitely fit 
 OR NO - It will NOT fit   OR   To answer that I need more info  ?
  

  *You would need to ask your vendor whether or not the PCI-X slot is a 3.3
  volt or a 5.0 volt slot.  I'm guessing it's 3.3 volts, but that's just a
  guess.*

  Here's a link to a decent article explaining the difference between PCI
  and PCI Express slots, if you're interested.

 Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Question about PCI Slots for 
 DIGIUMs Boards

 No actually I gave it a LOT of thought and I and even asked two 
 different techs who repair PCs
 and both said what the to vendors are saying is not 
 sufficiently clear 
 that I would
 make a purchasing decision based on what you have in hand from them
 But, nice try at the cheap shot.

 

 The two techs you spoke with are obviously not familiar enough with the
 technology at hand to be able to make that determination, because all of
 the necessary information is contained within the original e-mail and
 the specs available on Digium's website.

 To simplify, however, here is the answer:  The TE420 cards will fit in
 the regular x8 (not low-profile) PCI-E slots, and the TE412P will fit
 into the PCI-X slots.

 - Brad

 The notifications come from the HP tools you can download
 for free from their website.

 The recovery cd is probably a selfmade installer for their
 setup. At least that's what we have.

 the ILO stuff is to give you access to the box like you were
 sitting right in front of it with a physical keyboard and
 monitor, but over IP.
 You can boot the machine, access the cd in your local
 machine etc, even if the box is on the other side of the
 moon.

 We use Debian. HP even supports it on their DL380 boxen.

 We use the P400 raid controller. Setup RAID5 with 3 disks.
 CPU we use right now is the Intel E5405

 Hope this helps a bit.

How did you chose Centos, versus Red Hat, Suse, Debian, ?
Was there some key feature it offered that the others didn't ?
Cost ?

Darren Wright wrote:
 Notifications can be done either thru SNMP traps or SMTP.  Insight
 Manager is free from HP, but any SNMP trapper can work with alerts.

 The recovery CD is just a build that reloads the majority of the system
 with a static ip.   We backup off site to one of our servers via FTP.

 ILO access is an integrated IP KVM.   So you can see the machine boot,
 get virtual media access, etc.

 O/S is CentOS.

 For smaller systems, RAID 1, and for larger DL380 based systems 0+1

What exactly is supported?

Specifically, RHEL does not include Zaptel. And is not likely to include
the kernel Zaptel modules until Zaptel comes closer to mainline kernel.

SLES includes a Zaptel package of its own. 1.2.4 .

Will they support a system that has unsupported kernel code?


What is the alternative? buy support elsewhere. There are people who
will support your Debian / Centos / whatever boxes. With RHEL and SuSE
you have to buy support. With Debian it is optional.

It's not just Voip numbers.  We've got a PRI from XO that (even though
they say otherwise) we can't white pages listings (reliably) or yellow
pages.  We've had to purchase analog ATT lines just to be listed.
When our contract is up, it's back to ATT we go.

I think that is one of the biggest things that businesses overlook
when switching to Voip.  It's hard to get in the directories.

Good luck!

Re: [asterisk-users] Finding iaxy's (iaxies?)

2008-03-29 Thread Stelios Koroneos
I haven't used any Iaxy but from the example it looks like once you ping the
ip of the Iaxy it will responde with a udp packet from port 
So you don't actually ping the  port, but again as I said never used it
so I could be wrong

 According to http://kb.digium.com/entry/12/
 
   The Iaxy will respond to pings on port . You can ping your
   broadcast IP on your network and listen with tcpdump on your
   network on port  which will show the Iaxy 
 responding and what
   IP address it is coming from.
 
   Ex.
   ping 192.168.1.255
   tcpdump -i eth0 udp port 
 
 Before I get my karma whacked again, does this work for anybody?
 
 1) Shouldn't ping 192.168.1.255 be ping -b 192.168.1.255
 
 2) Aren't pings ICMP and thus invisible when tcpdump is 
 looking for UDP?
 
 3) How do you set a port on an ICMP ping?
 
 4) How do YOU find an Iaxy on your network?
 
 Thanks in advance,

Kernel panics are usually caused by a change.  Just change it back,
whether that is a hardware or software configuration.  Could be bad
RAM too, but the logs should shed light on what the issue is
Hopefully.

Anyways, I have been lucky enough not to have a kernel panic in quite
a long time (whatever flavor, in fact, the last time was trying to

Asterisk core dumping...

Just go with the flavor you like and if support is a huge concern, buy
ABE and take the support role off your hands (as long as you are using
Digium products).

Re: [asterisk-users] Question about PCI Slots for DIGIUMs Boards

2008-03-29 Thread Steve Totaro
If I am not mistaking, Digium has pictures of the various PCI slots on
their website.

Google images is very helpful if you know what you are at, just don't
know the name
http://images.google.com/images?hl=enq=pci+slotsbtnG=Search+Imagesgbv=2

Another idea is to call your sales channel, I am sure one or two phone
calls will get you setup for the right card in a few minutes and much
quicker than all this back and forth posting.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro

   No actually I gave it a LOT of thought and I and even asked two
   different techs who repair PCs
   and both said what the to vendors are saying is not
   sufficiently clear
   that I would
   make a purchasing decision based on what you have in hand from them
   But, nice try at the cheap shot.
  
  
  
   The two techs you spoke with are obviously not familiar enough with the
   technology at hand to be able to make that determination, because all of
   the necessary information is contained within the original e-mail and
   the specs available on Digium's website.
  
   To simplify, however, here is the answer:  The TE420 cards will fit in
   the regular x8 (not low-profile) PCI-E slots, and the TE412P will fit
   into the PCI-X slots.

 Hello list,
 after spending the best part of an afternoon trying to build Asterisk on  
 an old EPIA VIA C3, I thought that writing a tutorial would make life  
 easier for future compilers:
 
 http://astrecipes.net/index.php?n=356
 
 I had never compiled Asterisk for a different architecture, and I'm pretty  
 disappointed at how complex it is - building Zaptel, Libpri and Asterisk  
 requires discovering three different procedures, and even passing the  
 required architecture to the autoconfig module was not enough for a clean  
 build - libpthread and libresolv would not link, so you have to add them  
 manually. Aybody got an idea of who should be notified of this immediate  
 problem, apart for the time-wasteful general compilation procedure?
 
 Thanks

Hi there,

I didn't find it too much trouble in a Via C700N system. But I wouldn't 
use one of the mainstream distros for the OS. They chew up system 
resources just trying to accommodate any hardware.

The solution is to roll-your-own. See this series of articles on my 
blog... http://www.theopensourcerer.com/tag/asterisk/

Cheers

Al

Re: [asterisk-users] Two phones fail to agree on codec, asterisk at fault?

Hi Martin,
Am Freitag, den 28.03.2008, 14:27 +0100 schrieb martin f krafft:
 [...]
 So calls are going via an asterisk bridge and the symptoms of my
 problem are:
 
   1 if C450IP calls softphone, they can talk fine
   2 if softphone calls C450IP, voice only goes from C450IP to
 softphone, not the other way around.
 
 I traced this down to the session description protocol, where there
 is funky stuff going on with the supported codecs each peer
 announces. Remember, asterisk is between them, and I set
 disallow=all,allow=ulaw,allow=alaw in [global].

If this isn't a typo, use [general] instead of [global].

 it's free so they put up with the occasional issues or I just call

 FWIW, the free calls only last 90 days after you deposit the 10 euros

Re: [asterisk-users] Two phones fail to agree on codec, asterisk at fault?

2008-03-29 Thread martin f krafft
also sprach Brent Davidson [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2008.03.28.2149 +0100]:
 With canreinvite=no you are forcing asterisk to remain in the call path.  
 As long as Asterisk is in the call path, it is supposed to be transcoding 
 the calls, so it doesn't care what the compatible codecs are between then 
 endpoints.  Each leg of the call is phone-asterisk so asterisk 
 negotiates a compatible codec set with each phone.

This seems incredibly silly. Asterisk could (*should*) just see if
it can find a common denominator between the two peers and thus
reduce its workload.

 If there is a codec difference between two legs of a call, it
 should be transcoding between them, unless you have that disabled
 somehow.  (A quick google and I don't see how to disable
 transcoding apart from limiting codecs.)

It doesn't. The Siemens definitely receives GSM packets.

 Now the other issue here is why Asterisk is offering GSM to the softphone 
 and g726 to the C450IP.  Try setting the allow and disallow settings for 
 each channel rather than in Global.  I tend to set things like codecs on a 
 per-device basis rather than in global.  Global settings have a bad habit 
 of being overridden.

I did this and now I cannot reproduce the problem. Gotta love * :)

Thanks, guys!

Re: [asterisk-users] how to register IAX user without password for any user

2008-03-29 Thread Tim H. Panton
Do your callees have known IP addresses ?
If not, how does Asterisk know where to send the call?

Normally this works because the callee has registered with asterisk,
so asterisk has an IP address to associate with the name (or number).

Without this asterisk can't know where to send the packets!

 Detailed specs for the types of PCI slots on the system were posted 
 each and every time I posted int the line

Actually, your description wasn't 100% clear at all.

 _PCI Express_*: _two x8 slots*_, _two x8 low profile slots*_; *_PCI-X: 
 64-bit/100MHz_* 

1)  This description seems to IMPLY that there are 5 slots total.  Do you
know if this is in fact correct?  It implies there are 2 PCI-E x8 slots, 2
PCI-E x8 low profile slots, and 1 PCI-X slot.  I wouldn't rely on that
however without talking to the vendor.

2) The first PCI Express: heading would normally imply that the slots
listed afterwards are ALL PCI Express slots, however PCI-X is not PCI
Express, so the vendor's description is confusing and misleading.

3) All these damn *'s you keep inserting, are those all done by you, or
are some of them from the web page description?  Most of the time when
something has a * by it that means it's conditional on a footnote that
appears at the bottom of the section or page.  Are there footnotes we need
to know about to clarify this?

4) Is this a rackmount server or a tower case?  If rackmount, is it a 1u
server or a 2u server or a 4u server?  Just because the motherboard has 5
slots doesn't mean the case it is installed in will support 5 cards.  A 1u
case rarely supports more than 1 or 2 cards, and always requires a riser
card.  A 2u server rarely supports more than 2 cards unless they are
low-profile.  A 4u server might allow 5 cards, IF the case is designed
with 5 slot openings in the back.

5) Are all the card slots open and available to you at time of shipping?
Many options a customer orders with a server, such as a RAID controller or
additional network ports will fill one or more of the available slots.
You need to be sure all the slots you need are available to you when you
get the server.

As for types of cards.  As others have already said, PCI-X is not
PCI-Express and they are not interchangeable.

A PCI-Express card slot can accomodate any PCI-Express card with the same
number of lanes or less.  So an x8 slot (8 lanes) will support an x1, x2,
x4, or x8 card, but not an x16 card.  I believe the Digium PCI Express
cards are only x1 (one lane) so they should fit in any PCI Express slot,
but you should check with Digium's web site to be 100% sure the card you
are buying is a x1 card.

Unless you specifically buy a low-pofile card, a normal PCI or PCI Express
Card will NOT fit in a low-profile slot.  So assuming Digium's cards are
full height, you only have 3 possible options.  The 2 PCI Express full
height slots, and the 1 PCI-X slot, assuming all those slots are open and
will be available with the case you're using.

I would NOT base my purchasing decision on that vague description given by
the vendor that you have listed in your messages.  I would contact the
vendor and clarify the total number of slots, types of slots, whether they
are open or not, and whether the case will support them all.

Many vendors will use a motherboard with 3-5 slots on the board, in a 1u
rackmount case that only supports 1 physical card.

One final word of warning...  don't try to stick too many cards in one box
without double checking with someone who can tell you if it will handle
that capacity or not.  There were a lot of problems with early Digium
4-port T1 cards where you couldn't use more than 1 or 2 cards at a time
because of the interrupts.  The newer cards, especially PCI Express, may
not have that problem anymore... but I would double check before
proceeding with more than 2 cards in one box.

Can anyone out there clarify (for me as well) whether you can put, say, 4
or 5 4-port T1 cards in a single box now and have it work ok?  Assuming
enough RAM and a fast enough CPU of course.

 Maybe it has a different name but I don't see any option containing
 md5 in the config you pasted. What is the md5 option called? I would
 like to setup md5 authentication between my 7961 on SIP 8.3.3 with
 Asterisk 1.4.18.

 Thanks,
