[asterisk-users] How many maximum SIP Registrations can Asterisk Handle

The registration interval you use, the smaller the interval the greater the load but the better at keeping NAT connections open, 2. Whether you use the qualify setting to help with keeping NAT connections open, 3. Whether you are using realtime or a configuration file. 4. The load from calls, With a best case scenario the answers to the above questions would be: 1. 3600, 2. No, 3. Configuration file, 4. Minimal With that set up I'd guess that somewhere between 5,000 and 10,000 registrations would be something your hardware could handle. However it would be normal that once the number of SIP accounts gets to a certain point it becomes to painful to configure them via a config file which means realtime with it's database option comes into play. At that point you are better off taking the load from registrations away from Asterisk. Asterisk is not a particularly good SIP Registrar anyway so putting in something like OpenSER is a superior option.

[asterisk-users] breaking DNID into country code, area code, and local code
Dear friends, I am wondering if there is any efficient way of extract the country code, area code, and local code into 3 different variables from one DNID that can look like 001630233-4333 or 0086213345333? International code can be 011, or 00. National code can be 0 or 1 Country code can have 2 or 3 digits Area code can have 2 or 3 digits Local num can be 7-10 digits Is there anyway to break this down efficiently in the dialplan or AGI? Any comment will be greatly appreciated.

I think it can not be done efficiently, reliably, and for international numbers. The first problem would be to create the uniform international number in +(X[XX])[YYY] format. For example consider the number 01149228730 This might very well be a valid Sheffield, UK, number (no idea if it is, and I will not call to find out :-) of area code 0114 and local seven-digit number 9228730. If dialled from US it will connect you to the University switchboard in Bonn, Germany. (I had to find a really short number to fit the seven-digit dialplan of Sheffield). The problem is that some countries have 011 being (part of) a valid area code, banning it as identification for this is an international number dialled from North America. Vice versa some countries seem to have valid uses for 00 that mean different things than international dialling. I think it was used for operator in Spain back when they had 07 for international dialling, and had been in some area codes in Russia until they decided to migrate from 8~10 to 00 for international dialling until 2010. So getting your numbers standardized to + C[CC] A[] SSS[SS] may already break on those problems. Sorry, but you are not all happy either once you have that standardized form. US is easy with the fixed +C AAA SSS form, and some countries are similarly easy as they have fixed-length area codes (France, AFAIK) or no area codes at all (Denmark). UK has two (London 20, Coventry 24 and a few others) up to four (afaik) area code digits, which possibly can be recignized by logic, as +44 2 always is two-digit, and +44 1x1 and +44 11x are always three-digit - I do not know if that is valid universally though. Any logic breaks when it comes to German area codes, where +49 x0 may or may not be a valid area (30 - Berlin, but 5031 - Wunstorf, and 209 - Gelsenkirchen), and area codes range from two to five digits, with a few three-digit subsribers nearly anywhere, but up to nine digit subscriber numbers in Berlin. For some countries information may even be hard to get - although you probably will not receive many calls from Benin, Ethiopia or Mongolia, and if you do indeed, you will have no trouble getting their local telephone system explained. Once you have your numbers standardized ($NUMBER in +xxx form) you could of course query a database, looking for ${NUMBER:1:7} down to ${NUMBER:1:2}, such that if applicable the Country-/-Area can be returned as string, as a fall back the country only, and if nothing helps, the number can be discarded as invalid (assuming you have a complete list of country prefixes). I think you will not find anything much simpler that which can handle the structure of phone numbers, as that is for historical and political reason rather messy ;-) BR Anselm ___ -- 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] How many maximum SIP Registrations can Asterisk Handle
I'd say several thousands i n normal circumstances, but i would also like to recommend not to use asterisk for large scale registrations, its better to do those on SER for example, and route the calls through asterisk for termination, voicemail, conferencing etc. It all depends on how fast the reregistration time is set on those end devices and how much the registrations will collide in the same small interval. SER doesn't handle audio so even if the registration gets a little delayed because a flood arrives, the audio won't suffer.

Tzafrir, Anselm, and others. Thanks for your comments on my suggestion to Ayman. As one who is familiar, but not-native speaker with Arabic, Hebrew, and several other classical Semitic family languages, it would require much more time to try to fit those into the linear structure of SAY.CONF than to deal with it in a directly parsed manner. I can say the same for some Asian languages too. The results would recognized but would not be culturally acceptable. OFF TOPIC COMMENTS: I am constantly amazed at cross-language translations that try to follow the western language standards in computerized applications.

Is 1.4 SVN recommended for that at the moment?) Also no idea. I was told to use 1.4 if I'm using Asterisk 1.6 so I went with that. - Gonzalo Try: /svn/zaptel/!svn/ver/3905/team/kpfleming/battery_alarms It worked for me. You should have to rebuild asterisk. We do need a new zaptel release though. sean ___ -- 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] New Tutorial: Asterisk on EPIA VIA C3

Aybody got an idea of who should be notified of this immediate problem, apart for the time-wasteful general compilation procedure? Thanks l. 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/ The C7 supports full i686 features. The C3 is an older chip that is fully i586 and partially i686 compatible. If you have a distribution that is compiled with i586 optimizations, you won't have problems.

[asterisk-users] Tests in VMWare
I'm just wondering if any one else has tried to successfully install Asterisk on Ubuntu inside VM. I've installed Ubuntu without incident or error. Even the install of Asterisk is relatively straightforward as it is maintained in one of the repositories. But when I attempt to start Asterisk I get a nice Segmentation Fault. I've narrowed down the problem somewhat. If I disable modules from automatically loading in modules.conf, e.g. autoload=no, Asterisk will start. If I keep the default, autoload=yes, Asterisk fails to start (seg fault). I can't find in any of the other config files where Asterisk may be trying to load a module and therefore crashing the system. I'm really just trying to experiment with different features and configurations of multiple Asterisk machines and would prefer to do that in virtual space. I'm willing to make my configs available. I just thought I'd drop this email on the list hoping for the chance that someone has dealt and corrected this problem. :-) Thanks much in advance. -- Ein Bielaczyc [EMAIL PROTECTED] NOTICE: This E-mail (including attachments) is covered by the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, 18 U.S.C.2510-2521, is confidential and may be legally privileged.

[asterisk-users] Advice on queue setup needed please.
Hello, I have two sites. Both the sites will require queues for their own reason, own campaigns, etc. Like site1 would handle product1, product2, product3, while site2 can do product4, but can also do customer support for product1 and if anything, can transfer to site1's product1 queue (usually via SIP) Also, a few of these queues will require AgentLogin() type logging in, and some might not (and they can use regular either AQM or just be statically logged in cases where they might need to be logged into two queues) Currently I have sip peers setup in sip.conf where 1xx is for site1 and 2xx is for site2. I've made queues like product1, product2 and for example peer 121 has context=product1 in sip.conf. I also have [product1] in extensions.conf. If a call comes in via DID, I do a Goto(product1,100,1) where the call is sent from [incoming] to [product1] where it enters a queue(product1), and if 121 needs to transfer to say, exten = 7,1,Dial. which is in [product1], it transfers. That's the type of scenario that's real nice. But I have a few complications. I currently somehow have these queues setup, but I need to make myself clear on a few things. And maybe even need suggestions/advice. All the sip peers use eyebeam. When a new queue needs to be added, how can I simply re-assign the agents to new queues without having to make any changes on the eyebeams and only on the asterisk server? In this way, I just tell a team leader, Ok, agents 215 to 230 are configured to handle product4 queue. So they log in and when it prompts for username, punch in any of the ones between 215 and 230. This way all peers 215 and 230 do all product4 related stuff and not depend on what the device is configured. For example, if the device is configured as 245 and the agent logs in as 215, it should only take up all sip settings of 215 and do whats required rather than saying stuff like this extension is not in context test which 245 is set under. I'm not sure if anyone is following me because this completely clouded for me as well. But if someone is, can they please recommend a way for me to keep this mess organized?

Re: [asterisk-users] Tests in VMWare
If you leave all of the modules enabled, which one does it have a problem with? You should be able to run asterisk -vc to see where it stops loading. The last line or so should give you the module that it tried to load before it failed. Based on the last time I tried to install under Ubuntu, you're probably failing to load the Zap module. Since you're in a VM and it's unlikely that you're using Zap for anything, you can disable chan_zap.so and see if your Asterisk starts properly then.

Re: [asterisk-users] Had it with Dell Garbage - HP Question
There are people who will support your Debian / Centos / whatever boxes. If it is OK to ask on a non-commercial list, do you have a list of reliable O/S support folks. By this I mean companies with a support staff, as opposed to a really bright and talented guy who does it between classes in school.

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.
