Re: [asterisk-users] is DNS SRV enough for failover?

2008-10-01 Thread Andres

Hi Sir.

This is the result of my query:

~$ host -t SRV _sip._udp.mydomain.com

_sip._udp.mydomain.com has SRV record 0 1 5060 sip-1.mydomain.com.
_sip._udp.mydomain.com has SRV record 0 3 5060 sip-2.mydomain.com.

is that what you meant on having at least 2 SRV record?
does this mean i need a UA capable of querying DNS SRV?

i know it's not a real failover but at least the UA should still try to 
register on the other server if it cannot connect.

  

Those records look fine.  Priority is 0 for both, which is the highest, 
and the higher one with weight of 3 should be selected most of the 
times.  My guess is your UA is either not doing SRV queries or is not 
following them in any case.  To know if it is actually doing the queries 
try to sniff the traffic with Wireshark and analyze it.

It all depends on country and laws.

[asterisk-users] GSM / 3g channel bank

2008-10-01 Thread Julian Lyndon-Smith
More than 60% of our outbound calls are now to mobiles, so the time has 
come to whack in a gsm channel bank.

Does anyone have any preference of bank ? Do you use a PRI or VOIP 
connection from the bank to asterisk ? Real-world experiences are so 
much better than marketing blurb ;)

We currently have  a TE412P with a free socket, so we have a choice 
either way. I am looking for up to 30 sims to be connected, and we are 
based in the UK.

Any advice is gratefully received.

Thanks

Julian

[asterisk-users] Debugging

2008-10-01 Thread Wilton Helm
First, I'm new to the list server format, so I'm trying to figure out the 
mechanics.

I am installing an asterisk server for my SOHO.  I'm working my way through Van 
Meggelen's book (just finished ch 4) and trying to get something up and working.

Hardware is 1.8 GHz Pentium with 1 GB RAM
OS is Fedora 9
I'm using Asterisk 1.6
I have a Linksys 941 SIP phone
I will also be using ISDN for pstn and an engenius Wi-Fi SIP and a Grandstream 
386 ATA, but that's future.  Right now I just want asterisk to recognize the 
SIP after setting everything up as per ch 4 of the book.

Everything seems to load fine.  I don't see any obvious issues with either the 
SIP phone or asterisk, but the green light for line 1 doesn't come on as 
expected, and asterisk says its unmonitored.  There are a couple of warnings 
for things like dundi that I don't think matter at this point.  What sort of 
tests should I be running to narrow this down?

The Linux firewall is off (my LAN has a firewall that protects me from the real 
world and all of this is inside it).  SELinux is in permissive mode, as I'm not 
sure what I need to do to it so I got it out of the way.  both the phone and 
the computer are on the same 10/100 switch.  I don't think it gets much simpler.

Thanks,
Wilton

Can I used Aastra phones as agents instead of web-base on

 Hello,

 We've released another update to our astGUIclient-VICIDIAL suite: 2.0.4

 http://astguiclient.sf.net/

 The client suite runs on most modern web browsers on almost any
 GUI-capable operating system, and it includes the VICIDIAL call center
 suite and the astGUIclient client-side web app which extends your
 phone's functionality.
 This package is free and GPL.
  (the suite is not an asterisk configuration tool)
 This package is geared towards Asterisk installations with SIP,IAX or
 Zap phones and Zaptel, IAX or SIP trunks.

 For this release, we have focused on adding new features to inbound
 call handling such as custom music-on-hold, agent alert messages per
 inbound group and agent-rank call routing per skill as well as several
 other new administrative features. We have also tested the suite on
 Asterisk versions through 1.2.24.

 All client web-apps and administration pages are available in English,
 Spanish, Greek and German, with rough translations of French, Polish,
 Italian, Portuguese and Brazillian Portuguese for the client web-apps
 only.

 Check out the project blog for more information:
 http://astguiclient.blogspot.com

 Let me know what you think.

 Thanks,

[asterisk-users] RTP sent before the INVITE ACK (for voicemail app)

2008-10-01 Thread tic tac
Hello,

With asterisk 1.4.11, I am calling AGI exec voicemail upon a SIP INVITE

invite - asterisk
- 100
- 200
- RTP
ACK -
...

asterisk is sending the RTP for the greeting before the original invite is 
ACK-ed (confirmed with a tcpdump) as if playing the prompt as soon as it is 
received from the AGI. I don't see any 183 so I don't think early media should 
apply.

CLI output does not show any error that I see. Is there any reason other than a 
SIP 183 that would trigger this and isn't asterisk supposed to ACK/answer the 
channel before playing any prompt?

Thanks,

Sebastien.

Does anyone have any perspective on how well Asterisk performs and
scales inside a Xen hypervisor environment?

I tried on many different pieces of hardware with various recent Xen
versions and it always had some level of unpredictability and was not
as reliable as running on bare hardware. I wouldn't do it for production
but it was fine for testing (sort of :).

This was of course w/ ztdummy in a pure sip env.

 Most of the relevant patents are *not* software patents. Don't confuse

Re: [asterisk-users] RTP sent before the INVITE ACK (for voicemail app)

2008-10-01 Thread Grey Man

 CLI output does not show any error that I see. Is there any reason other
 than a SIP 183 that would trigger this and isn't asterisk supposed to
 ACK/answer the channel before playing any prompt?


Asterisk wil start the audio as soon as it sends back the 200 Ok
response it doesn't wait for the ACK. Most SIP servers will work like
that. The matching of ACK requests to a SIP transaction is not a
particulalrly robust mechanism (for instance if a user agent puts its
IP address in the Call-ID and a SIP ALG fiddles with the SIP packet
for INVITEs but ignores ACKs then there will be a mismatch. This
happens more frequently then you would think) so sending RTP after an
OK response is the correct thing to do.

I think Asterisk will actually cut off the call after 32s if it
doesn't get an ACK which is not such a great idea but that may have
been changed in later versions. The arrival of an RTP packet from the
remote end should be used as the definitive indication of an answered
call not the ACK.

Regards,

Greyman.

[asterisk-users] Ongoing calls with SIPPEER, curcalls

2008-10-01 Thread Olivier
Hello,

From http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+func+sippeer I understood I
could use SIPPEER and curcalls parameter to get the number of ongoing calls
passed of received by a given peer.

Strangely, in my system, returned value remains equal to 0, even when the
targeted peer is oncall with another one.

exten = _753X,n,Set(foo=${SIPPEER(${EXTEN}:curcalls)})
exten = _753X,n,Set(foo2=${SIPPEER(${EXTEN}:limit)})
exten = _753X,n,NoOp(${foo} ${foo2})

Replies are 0 and 5.

Am I missing something ?

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk in VM.

2008-10-01 Thread Bill Michaelson

My experience is very limited, but you asked for any perspective, so...

I put an Asterisk with freePBX on a linode server (linode.com), just to 
play with it a few months ago.  I can say that it worked to the point of 
being able to dial out with my Polycom phone on a FiOS connection, 
through the * box, and a SIP termination service like Vitelity, and to 
receive calls in the other direction.  No problems with that, and kinda 
cool to be able to throw a virtual PBX out there with so little 
expense.  I did not stress test it, nor did I examine resource usage to 
gain perspective on scalability.  More of a proof of concept.


One issue that comes up with regard to this is about timing sources for 
MOH, etc.  Related to this and of general use to know, I believe one can 
associate PCI cards with particular VMs, but it's been a few months 
since I configured a Xen box of my own, so the details have already fled 
from my feeble brain...


But I hope that's helpful.

Alex Balashov wrote:

Obviously, the answer depends largely on what sort of hardware it's 
running on, whether it's in PAE mode, whether it's a newer CPU that has 
some paravirtualisation instruction sets available to assist it, how 
much memory is allocated to each VM, and other architectural 
considerations.



Any perspective would be helpful, however.

 You mean countries that recognize software patents, right?


 As resident of country where the file is hosted - yes we don't have
 software patents, they have been proposed to EU and reject few years
 ago. So by law - software is algorithm and can't be patented.

 In local laws we even are allowed to reverse-engineer software for
 needs of compatibility and interoperability. So, writing code for
 commercial codec and using it for interoperability with hardware
 devices (you purchased) is allowed by law.

 Damn, we even have a law that don't allow bittorrent trackers, as
 bittorrent file is considered breaking copyright law.. Ironic :p



 Please do NOT discuss ways to use unlicensed codecs on this list or any 
 other forum
 provided by Digium.  This has been discussed multiple times as to why 
 not,
 and I don't feel like rehashing the argument again.


 I did not know you were a moderator on this list.



 contributory infringement


 What if  I make a page that explains the patent issues and then
 provide a link to http://asterisk.hosting.lv/ from that site and only
 provide people on this list a link to my site? What if I provide a
 link to the Google search for asterisk g723? Where do we draw the
 line? If that site is so illegal, why hasn't it been taken down? Why
 hasn't the patent holder at the very least provided Google with a DMCA
 notice?



 I guess because it's completely legal here, and there's a disclaimer on 
 page:
 DISCLAIMER: You might have to pay royalty fees to the G.729/723.1
 patent holders for using their algorithm.

 It all depends on country and laws.


 There are a few algorithmic speedup patents around, what can accelerate
 codecs like G.729 and G.723.1, and which are purely software patents.
 Most of the relevant patents are *not* software patents. Don't confuse
 software patent with something running on a computer.

 Patents applicable to speech coding are perfectly valid in the vast
 majority of countries. Certainly in all the EU countries.


 It seems that this have been discussed numerous times.

 http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2004-October/058136.html

 Does anybody have some more legal experence with this? Any courts?
 Negotiations? NDA? :p

 From what i've found, there's an EU directive regarding software
 patents, but it's full of legal terms. Maybe anyone can comment?

 http://www.europarl.europa.eu/commonpositions/2005/pdf/c6-0058-05_en.pdf

 You're back to talking about software patents again. People love to do
 that, in the same spirit that schoolboys cross their fingers in the hope
 it absolves them from something. Would you care to look through the
 patents which the G.729 patent pool licences, and try to find any
 software patents amongst them?


Because it's one directive regulating software and
mathematical/algorithmic patents.
Personally, I don't use G.729 at all, i'm just curios about this.

If you would point me, i would gladly take a look at this patent list,
for now my searches were unsuccessful. I was also asking somebody for
some legal experience with this, as theory and practical application
of patent laws may differ :)

[asterisk-users] [Fwd: asterisk-users Digest, Vol 51, Issue 2]

2008-10-01 Thread Bill Michaelson

From: Joseph L. Casale [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Does anyone have any perspective on how well Asterisk performs and
scales inside a Xen hypervisor environment?



I tried on many different pieces of hardware with various recent Xen
versions and it always had some level of unpredictability and was not
as reliable as running on bare hardware. I wouldn't do it for production
but it was fine for testing (sort of :).


All other things being equal, certainly the bare HW will win out.  I'd
like to also note that Xen provides a mechanism to dedicate a CPU core
to a virtual machine in a system appropriately equipped.  Might be
useful.

As to whether all critical sources of contention can be controlled
adequately to achieve an equivalent or sufficiently robust environment
for Asterisk -- I can't say authoritatively.  It's reasonable to think 
it might be possible.

Re: [asterisk-users] New VICIDIAL astGUIclient Release: 2.0.4

2008-10-01 Thread Matt Florell
Hello,

I have never tried using Aastra phones as user agent. If they support
Javascript and AJAX then it should work. VICIDIAL is tested with IE,
Firefox, Opera and Safari.

At the very least they may be able to use the remote agent interface
that does not use Javascript, but there is reduced functionality as
compared to the full agent interface.

Thanks,

Re: [asterisk-users] RTP sent before the INVITE ACK (for voicemail app)

2008-10-01 Thread tic tac
Thanks, in my case though it looks like the originating party (polycom 
softphone) is hearing a clipped voicemail prompt because of that; should I look 
into having that fixed into their firmware? As a workaround, I was thinking to 
just add a few seconds delay in app_voicemail, or wait through AGI before 
calling voicemail, makes sense?



 Date: Wed, 1 Oct 2008 15:43:37 +0100
 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com
 Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] RTP sent before the INVITE ACK (for voicemail   
 app)
 
 
  CLI output does not show any error that I see. Is there any reason other
  than a SIP 183 that would trigger this and isn't asterisk supposed to
  ACK/answer the channel before playing any prompt?
 
 
 Asterisk wil start the audio as soon as it sends back the 200 Ok
 response it doesn't wait for the ACK. Most SIP servers will work like
 that. The matching of ACK requests to a SIP transaction is not a
 particulalrly robust mechanism (for instance if a user agent puts its
 IP address in the Call-ID and a SIP ALG fiddles with the SIP packet
 for INVITEs but ignores ACKs then there will be a mismatch. This
 happens more frequently then you would think) so sending RTP after an
 OK response is the correct thing to do.
 
 I think Asterisk will actually cut off the call after 32s if it
 doesn't get an ACK which is not such a great idea but that may have
 been changed in later versions. The arrival of an RTP packet from the
 remote end should be used as the definitive indication of an answered
 call not the ACK.
 
 Regards,
 
 Greyman.

I can see in sip.conf :

So, when Set(foo2=${SIPPEER(${EXTEN}:limit)}) replies 5, it replies to
correct value.
The strange thing is with curcalls  ...

As I'm using the same method to get its value, either :
- curcalls is not set to what I was thinking (I misunderstood its definition

Does anyone have any preference of bank ? Do you use a PRI or VOIP

much better than marketing blurb ;)

We currently have  a TE412P with a free socket, so we have a choice

Any advice is gratefully received.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk - Failover System

2008-10-01 Thread Alex Balashov
Depends on your conditions for failure.  If you are simply looking to 
get around hardware failures or other physical conditions which result 
in the T1s going down, you can use a reliable piece of ISDN gateway 
equipment in front of the Asterisk boxes that pushes SIP out the other 
end and configure it to fail over calls to a second VoIP peer.  It 
creates a single point of failure, but one which is far, far more 
unlikely to fail than PC hardware.

Or, you can use a DS1-level DACS that can protection switch the T1s to 
another port.

Ultimately, your failover options are limited if you have T1s physically 
going into an Asterisk box with a T1 card.  Your best bet is to somehow 
separate the two components;  then, you can get the proper redundancy 
measures implemented on both sides in ways that are most native and 
technologically appropriate, instead of coupling them in a way that 
makes them difficult to divest.

 Obviously, the answer depends largely on what sort of hardware it's 
 running on, whether it's in PAE mode, whether it's a newer CPU that has 
 some paravirtualisation instruction sets available to assist it, how 
 much memory is allocated to each VM, and other architectural

 Any perspective would be helpful, however.
 
We have been doing some test.
To avoid single point of failure (as musch as possible) we had mysql,

problem what so ever. DOM-u's are easy to scale up, considering mem or
cpu.
Would suggest to have either channel-banks/ata's or PRI-boards in a
separate machine(s). never got the pci forwarding from a hypervisor to a
dom-U properly working

 Does anyone have any perspective on how well Asterisk performs and

 Obviously, the answer depends largely on what sort of hardware it's 
 running on, whether it's in PAE mode, whether it's a newer CPU that
has 
 some paravirtualisation instruction sets available to assist it, how 
 much memory is allocated to each VM, and other architectural 
 considerations.
 
 Any perspective would be helpful, however.

Re: [asterisk-users] Software patents (was G723 on asterisk 1.4.1)

2008-10-01 Thread Michael Collins
 If you would point me, i would gladly take a look at this patent list,
 for now my searches were unsuccessful.

The ITU maintains a list of IPR (Intellectual Property Rights) claims
for various technologies. Check it out:

http://www.itu.int/ipr/IPRSearch.aspx?iprtype=PS

On the left-hand side there's a search box, plus you can select G.729
(or one of the many derivatives thereof) from the recommendations
drop-down list. When I select G.729 and click Search I get back a
list of 52 items, most of which seem to be patents that have at least
one claim related to this codec. (I see lots of references to stuff like
CS-ACELP and other super-geekish acronyms that only smart people like
Steve Underwood actually understand!:) 

IANAL but it looks like a lot of people have their hands out expecting
payment for people using G.729: www.sipro.com, e.g.

Happy researching,

[asterisk-users] no audio, firewall problem?

2008-10-01 Thread tic tac
Hello,

I am runing asterisk on a embedded linux and am having some RTP audio issues at 
the beginning of the call: the comfort noise packet seems to be opening the 
pinhole in the firewall though I don't understand why it is not already opened. 
Then audio is then transferred correctly between caller and callee through the 
asterisk bridge.

The SIP INVITE is received on a WAN interface and then I dial out to another 
SIP channel through the same interface. CLI output with RTP debug shows that 
Packet2Packet is only started and RTP is only sent by asterisk after the first 
rtpkeepalive timeout.

If I sniff at a mirroring port in the network I can see the first RTP packet 
going from my caller to the asterisk server yet it seems that it is never 
received (or it never reaches) asterisk (it is a direct route).

All firewall rules on the asterisk box are setup for the range of ports defined 
by rtp.conf (10k-11k in mycase); that is consistent with the SDP signaling 
generated by asterisk for the INVITE OUT and for the 200 OK back to the caller 
in the media description attribute.
Watching iptables live activation does not show any RTP packet blocked at the 
beginning of the call.

netstat shows:

netstat -an | grep udp | grep 10
netstat: no support for 'AF INET6 (tcp)' on this system
netstat: no support for 'AF INET6 (udp)' on this system
netstat: no support for 'AF INET6 (raw)' on this system
udp0  0 216.54.141.148:105540.0.0.0:*
udp0  0 216.54.141.148:105550.0.0.0:*
udp0  0 216.54.141.148:101020.0.0.0:*
udp0  0 216.54.141.148:101030.0.0.0:*

as I am using bindaddr=0.0.0.0 in the sip.conf.

I have multiple NICs on that box, could it be a problem or ...?

Thanks for any suggestion,

Sebastien.

[asterisk-users] rebooting snoms in 1.6

2008-10-01 Thread Dr. Michael J. Chudobiak
With Asterisk 1.4 I could use commands like:

/usr/sbin/asterisk -rx sip notify reboot-snom mjc_home

to reboot a snom phone. Now, with 1.6, when I try that, I get:

Unable to find notify type 'reboot-snom'
Command 'sip notify reboot-snom mjc_home' failed.

Do I need to add some magic to sip_notify.conf? I haven't quite figured 
out how to make it work.

I've used OpenSER to front-end Asterisk several times and am always 
pleased with the result.

The configuration is trivial for my needs and I find it to be rock 
solid. I love that you can restart it without interrupting calls in 
flight.

I've never had to use it in a fail-over situation -- yet :)

From a system administration standpoint, it is a big win. I can take a 
system out of production in a truly graceful fashion for updating the 
software on my Asterisk boxes.

[asterisk-users] cisco VAD and Asterisk recordings

2008-10-01 Thread Gabriel Ortiz Lour
Hi all,

  I'm experiencing problems with VAD activated on a cisco router doing the
bridge between an PBX and de asterisk server. The calls are all rights, but
on the recordings the silence from the cisco end point doesn't get recorded,
so the audio is completely wrong (the words and phrases from this side are
all 'glued' togheter and the other (native SIP) are OK)

Anyone experienced problem like this?

Well, almost.  :)  If you are using record-routing, it's going to drop 
transaction state so stateful forwarding for subsequent in-transaction 
requests isn't going to happen, nor is it going to recognise IDs of 
calls for which subsequent in-dialog requests must be routed.

If you are doing completely loose routing, you might be okay.

Either way, as you say, it's not going to cause media to cease in the 
middle of a call, no.

All depends on how important those 120 users are.

Hello,

If you are looking for a list of Call Center software packages that
work with Asterisk then take a look here:

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Predictive+dialer

There are over 20 now I believe.

2008-10-01 Thread Darren Sessions
I agree that an OpenSER solution on top of Asterisk for a 120 users is  
massive overkill to say the least.


High calls-per-second? Multiple Asterisk servers? Multiple vendors?  
Advanced LCR? or plans for any of that in the near future? Then I  
think it makes sense to look at fronting Asterisk with OpenSER for  
such a small amount of users.


Asterisk can do everything you'll need it to do otherwise.

Matt,

I saw them all but interested in one that I can use ATA as the agent. They
all seem to be based on softphones, my problem is if the computer goes to
sleep, the sofphones will not work.

Re: [asterisk-users] ATA for large networks

I work at a service provider and we use Audiocode MP-124 (Cisco IAD too). 
They are reliable and stable.  We use them for customers at shopping malls.

Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] ATA for large networks

 We have one hotel using Xorcom devices. It has 1 32 port FXS bank, and 1 
 24
 port FXS + 8 Port FXO.
 It works great with all the old analog phones in the motel, over the
 existing wiring.
 I haven't tried it with a fax though, but modem usage is very hit and 
 miss.
 The Xorcom guys are looking into this, as it should work. Apart from that
 problem though, I'm very happy with the Xorcom boxes.

 To do the 380 extensions though would require 12 of these boxes, so you'd 
 be
 using 12 USB connection on a single PC.

 Cheers,
 Col

 I would use Xorcom devices. Its not realy an ATA but you will have less
 problems managing an asterisk with a few Xorcoms than many ATA devices.

 Also you might have Fax devices and modems in your building and here
 Xorcom is definitively a better choice than ATA devices.

  Hi,
 
  I would like to know if someone can suggest a multi-port ATA worth
 buying (at least 8 ports).
 
  I have around 380 analog phones to convert to SIP extensions. So I need
 quite a few ATAs but they need to be enterprise-grade, ie. they need to 
 be
 reliable and stable.
 
  I bought and have been using 11 Grandstream GXW4008 (8-port FXS ATA) in
 a production environment and have been experiencing stability and quality
 issues which are not acceptable in a large company.
 
  I chose Grandstream because:
 
  - it was a cheap way to start
  - I thought their products were stable and reliable because I had
 already heard their brand name
 
  So since my experience with 11 Grandstream GXW4008 has been overall
 negative (I need to reboot the devices too often!), I'd like to know if
 someone could help me decide what brand/model to buy.
 
  I would also need to find these products in Europe (or at least
 deliverable there).
 
  I've been considering a few products but I don't know if they are
 reliable:
 
  TopGate TG8048 (48 FXS)
  Soundwin S2400 (24 FXS)
 
  In other words, I'd really appreciate feedback from voip administrators
 (not from resellers) who have had experience testing their devices and are
 happy with them.
 
  Thanks,
 
  Vieri
