[asterisk-users] chan_ss7 with ringing, but no voice stream.
hello, all of users: sorry, resend it again for clarifying the message. I have implemented cha_ss7 in china. initially, the chan_ss7 can not support the call group. i modify the code. now the problem is that, both sides can hear the ring, but i can not hear the voice from each other. i think the ss7 does not send the voice steam to the destination. in chan_ss7, i added: === static struct ss7_chan *cic_hunt_even_mru(struct linkset* linkset) { struct ss7_chan *cur, *prev, *best, *best_prev; best = NULL; best_prev = NULL; for(cur = linkset-idle_list, prev = NULL; cur != NULL; prev = cur, cur = cur-next_idle) { /* Don't select lines that are resetting or blocked. */ if(!cur-reset_done || (cur-blocked (BL_LH|BL_RM|BL_RH|BL_UNEQUIPPED|BL_LINKDOWN))) { continue; } /* if((cur-cic % 2) == 0) { */ /*change to this*/ if(((cur-cic % 2) == 0)0==strcasecmp(cur-link-name,linkname)) { /* Choose the first idle even circuit, if any. */ /*end of change*/ best = cur; best_prev = prev; break; } else if(best == NULL) { /* Remember the first odd circuit, in case no even circuits are available. */ best = cur; best_prev = prev; } } cic_hunt_even_mru if(((cur-cic % 2) == 0)0==strcasecmp(cur-link-name,linkname)) { my environment is: asterisk-1.4.20 chan_ss7-1.0.91 Openvox D410P === anyone has an idea for the problem? please give me some hints! thanks! james.zhu ___ -- 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

Most cable modems are jsut that - a dumb media convertor. The DHCP server back at HQ was set to give just one IP address per subcriber - at least in the UK that was how it was.(still is I think) The routers inside the phones were relatively full fetured IIRC, offering DHCP, NAT, port forwarding, etc. I suspect they were intended mainly for the US market where cable was the main technology at the time - and presented via Ethernet off the modem. Didn't mainland europe embrace ADSL from the start? The UK was cable in the early days but then BT got wise and we have near 100% ADSL avalability, as well as the existing cable stuff, but everyone I know with cable went out bought a router anyway...

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk and PBX internal numbers
2009/3/20 D Tucny d...@tucny.com 2009/3/19 Oguzhan Kayhan oguzh...@bilkent.edu.tr Hi, i know i am asking a lot of questions lately in this forum..sorry about that first of all. :) Ok, here is the deal.. I am trying to make a hybrid system with an ericsson MD110 and asterisk. Internally we have 4 digit phone extensions on ericsson.. and so in asterisk. So, what i want to do is to call pbx side without adding 9 or etc to the begining of the number from asterisk clients.. For example if smbody tries to call 1500 first asterisk should look for its local extensions and, if it not there it should dial PRI trunk.. Is there any way for that? It's pretty simple... e.g. [context-for-phones] include = localphones include = everythingelse [localphones] exten = 1500,1,Dial(SIP/1500) exten = 1501,1,Dial(SIP/1501) exten = 1502,1,Dial(SIP/1502) [everythingelse] exten = ,1,Dial(DAHDI/g1/${EXTEN}) So, your phones would be set up to use context-for-phones, then if a call was made the localphones context would be checked for a match before the everythingelse context... If 1500/1501/1502 were dialled, the calls would go the SIP/1500/1/2, any other 4 digit extension would be sent to the DAHDI group 1... Yes seems pretty simple, so can i use a wildcard instead of giving all numbers one by one? Such instead of exten = 1500,1,Dial(SIP/1500) exten = _15XX,1,Dial(SIP/_15XX) ? assuming all my local numbers are on 15 prefix??

Re: [asterisk-users] T.38 - Which endpoint shall reINVITE ? caller or callee ?
Steve Underwood schrieb: Hi Olivier, Olivier wrote: T.38 says that if the call starts in audio mode it is the called end which should initiate a re-invite to change from audio to T.38. This makes sense, as that is the end which has the best chance of figuring out if a FAX machine answers the call. In practice many T.38 implementations will send out a re-invite when they are the calling side, so any practical implementation has to allow for this. Clashes are possible, if both ends send re-invite, and this is not always handled properly Yesterday, with 2 consecutive sendings on the same setup (same fax file, same ATAs, same servers), on the first try, I've seen the reINVITE coming from callee on from the caller on the second try. I don't remember I changed anything between both tries (though I may have done without noticing this). That is what typically what happens when the calling end doesn't obey the spec. It comes down to a race for who initiates the re-invite first. If you are lucky the two ends sort themselves out. If you are unlucky you end up with both ends re-inviting, and you may get a call failure. This is what I see very often - both sides send reINVITE (overlapping), both sides reject with 491 (request pending) with the result that the switch to T.38 failed. I have only once seen handling overlapping reINVITEs smart (ComISDN client) Theoretically it would be perfect if the reINVITE is always triggered by the callee (as the spec says) - but there are ATAs which need up to 15 seconds to detect a fax and send reINVITE - and in this cases you sometimes have to work around by allowing the caller to send reINVITE too. regards Klaus ___ -- 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] chan_ss7 with ringing, but no voice stream.
SS7 doesnt send any voice. It sends call info, and tells the switches which trunk to use for the voice. Trunks are two-way as far as audio content, though they maybe designated is inbound or outbound trunks. An audio problem is possibly a NAT or other issue. Since you are modifying the SS7 code, there could be some error in setting up the call, but normally the IMT trunks are two way. (Of course they are 4 wire circuits so are two one way paths, but they are matched pairs so, for practical purposes they would be 1 entity for call set up purposes.)

Re: [asterisk-users] Special Information Tones
From a cell user level perspective... The cell companies are doing it like they think makes sense. If they know your cell is off/out of range they route instantly to VM. They could give 4-10 rings of fake effort, but why. With follow me roaming and such, they want to process the call as fast as possible. If they don't know if the cell is available, they may go through about 4 rings of searching, but beyond that it is time to send it to VM, charge for the call :-), and move on. Ideally, a find me call forwarding system should have a real person identifier and local voice mail. Real person means that all called external numbers should not be assumed to be answered until they send back a DTMF tone. Something like a Background announcement with some silence, waiting for DTMF. It could be a Boing or You have a forwarded call, press any key to accept the call Then the call should be cut through to that extension.

First I'll describe the problem. I'm trying to implement Single Number Reach. For example, when a call comes in to one of my DIDs, it simultaneously rings on a couple extensions in my home office and a couple of Verizon Wireless cell phone numbers. Everything works just the way it is supposed to if the cell phones are powered up, and within the range of a cell tower. The problem is if a cellphone is turned off, or out of range and unable to talk to a cell tower, Verizon is unable to find the cellphone on their network, Verizon answers the call and plays a recorded message, instead of allowing the number to continue ringing, and allowing one of the voip extensions, or another cellphone to answer the call. Verizon really wants to get rid of the call as quickly as possible to free up their equipment to handle other calls. Unfortunately we spend a lot of time in rural areas where there is no cell tower to talk to. In that case we really someone else to pick up the call.

Re: [asterisk-users] T.38 - Which endpoint shall reINVITE ? caller or callee ?
2009/3/20 Klaus Darilion klaus.mailingli...@pernau.at Steve Underwood schrieb: Hi Olivier, Olivier wrote: T.38 says that if the call starts in audio mode it is the called end which should initiate a re-invite to change from audio to T.38. This makes sense, as that is the end which has the best chance of figuring out if a FAX machine answers the call. In practice many T.38 implementations will send out a re-invite when they are the calling side, so any practical implementation has to allow for this. Clashes are possible, if both ends send re-invite, and this is not always handled properly Yesterday, with 2 consecutive sendings on the same setup (same fax file, same ATAs, same servers), on the first try, I've seen the reINVITE coming from callee on from the caller on the second try. I don't remember I changed anything between both tries (though I may have done without noticing this). That is what typically what happens when the calling end doesn't obey the spec. It comes down to a race for who initiates the re-invite first. If you are lucky the two ends sort themselves out. If you are unlucky you end up with both ends re-inviting, and you may get a call failure. This is what I see very often - both sides send reINVITE (overlapping), both sides reject with 491 (request pending) with the result that the switch to T.38 failed. I have only once seen handling overlapping reINVITEs smart (ComISDN client) Theoretically it would be perfect if the reINVITE is always triggered by the callee (as the spec says) - but there are ATAs which need up to 15 seconds to detect a fax and send reINVITE - and in this cases you sometimes have to work around by allowing the caller to send reINVITE too. Linksys 3102 have an option specifying if reINVITE should be inbound, outbound or both. Unfortunately, I couldn't find this option in Patton SmartNodes. regards Klaus ___ -- 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
[asterisk-users] Asterisk + OpenSIPs Integration - Rewrite URI on Trunk Numbers of a SIP Trunk
Hello All, I have a little complicated question about the Dial command. I use OpenSIPs to loadbalance Asterisk Servers, and Users are registered on Asterisk servers. Asterisk use the Reg. Contact entry to reach the UAC via the OpenSIPs server. Everything works except for trunk numbers: For each peer on Asterisk, Addr-IP is IP of the Proxy and Reg. Contact is the IP where the proxy will relay the packet to reach the UAC. Ex: with a trunk 0123400010 - 0123400019 with 0123400010 as the sip peer. When a number from a trunk is called, like 0123400019 the Reg. Contact of the main number is not used. For the time being, I use Dial(SIP/0123400010/0123400019) but it It sends an INVITE sip:0123400...@proxyip to the proxy whereas it should send INVITE sip:0123400019@Reg. Contact of the main number to the proxy So I'm trying use the Dial Command with Dial(SIP/0123400010/0123400019@Reg. Contact of the main number) but it doesn't work Have you got any idea how to rewrite the IP of the URI sent?

[asterisk-users] OpenSIPS on CentOS
Hello, I've been looking into OpenSIPS to see if it's a worthwhile addition to our setup. We're currently running a cluster, using Heartbeat, between two servers. It works well but I'm interested in seeing if we can improve it. My manager heavily uses RPM's for installations rather than source, particularly using yum to update. I'm trying to actually install OpenSips via that method. Does anyone have/know of where I can find an rpm aimed at EL4? And how I can nab libxml2, with the dependencies. I can get an RPM from for libxml2 from ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxml2/, but the dependencies for it are causing me headaches. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks.

Re: [asterisk-users] T1 problem (call using a .call file)
Don't really know the answer, but these are givens: 1. your phone is (most likely) in the same area code as the asterisk installation 2. NY is most likely not in the same area code. 3. Even though the T1 is a dedicated digital service, the code that handles all of this is/was written to process calls from analog sources for backwards compatibility and therefore would have the timing issue handlers in place even though they don't apply. My research revealed that you might use an exception to stop this, but I didn't really find a good example.

Re: [asterisk-users] Special Information Tones
The message I play to people (or machines) answering is something like DEX Yellow Pages call for Jones Bail Bonds, press [1] This information, along with the caller's phone number, etc., is logged for follow-up. The key, as Cary points out, is to look for DTMF to confirm that the call is not being transferred to voice mail or an unexpected intercept. (In 40 years of doing this stuff, this is the most reliable approach I've found to human/whatever answer-detect.) To further protect from the six-year-old answering the phone or the unfortunate forwarded-to-the-ex-girlfriend's-number, replace [1] with your password. My experience suggests that saying press [1] (or enter your password) results in a little quicker reaction than press any key.

It could be a Boing or You have a forwarded call, press any key to accept the call Then the call should be cut through to that extension.

Similar issue in the UK and yes, the carriers do answer the call - because from that second onward thy are taking revenue. BT offer a free voicemailbox on landlines too - for the same reason. So, they really want to answer the phone so they can charge for the call.

First I'll describe the problem. I'm trying to implement Single Number Reach. For example, when a call comes in to one of my DIDs, it simultaneously rings on a couple extensions in my home office and a couple of Verizon Wireless cell phone numbers. Everything works just the way it is supposed to if the cell phones are powered up, and within the range of a cell tower. The problem is if a cellphone is turned off, or out of range and unable to talk to a cell tower, Verizon is unable to find the cellphone on their network, Verizon answers the call and plays a recorded message, instead of allowing the number to continue ringing, and allowing one of the voip extensions, or another cellphone to answer the call. Verizon really wants to get rid of the call as quickly as possible to free up their equipment to handle other calls. Unfortunately we spend a lot of time in rural areas where there is no cell tower to talk to. In that case we

Since you are modifying the SS7 code, there could be some error in setting up the call, but normally the IMT trunks are two way. (Of course they are 4 wire circuits so are two one way paths, but they are matched pairs so, for practical purposes they would be 1 entity for call set up purposes.)

Re: [asterisk-users] [OpenSIPS-Users] OpenSIPS on CentOS
Hi Darrin, Hi Marc, Darrin, with an OpenSIPS frontend you can do more things actually: 1) move the HA in OpenSIPS - it will be able to re-route if one of the Asterisk boxs is down 2) do LB - you can use in parallel multiple Asterisk boxes and to balance the traffic between 3) you can terminate TLS (from client) and convert to UDP to deliver to Asterisk. Marc, Darrin has a point here - if you want to give a quick try to something, it is nice to be able to install it easily. We already have an APT (for debian) repo up and running (still beta). We could do the same for RPMs or, in the worst case, to generate the packages for download.

Thanks for your help Don’t really know the answer, but these are “givens”: 1. your phone is (most likely) in the same area code as the asterisk installation My phone has a different area code than the asterisk installation. The asterisk box is in FL and I can call a number in MN but not the 201 or many others 1. 2. NY is most likely not in the same area code. I agree but I could call a MN cell phone for example which works all the time 1. 2. Even though the T1 is a dedicated digital service, the code that handles all of this is/was written to process calls from analog sources for backwards compatibility and therefore would have the timing issue handlers in place even though they don’t apply. My research revealed that you might use an exception to stop this, but I didn’t really find a good example.

Re: [asterisk-users] [OpenSIPS-Users] OpenSIPS on CentOS
Hello Bogdan, I have set a small rpm repository for opensips 4.4 for CentOS (with el5) x86_64 (and later i386 32bits) Simply visit http://centos.leurent.eu/ and read the README.txt Maybe we could just do the same on the official OpenSIPs website? ++ Le Friday 20 March 2009 18.12:25 Bogdan-Andrei Iancu, vous avez écrit : Hi Darrin, Hi Marc, Darrin, with an OpenSIPS frontend you can do more things actually: 1) move the HA in OpenSIPS - it will be able to re-route if one of the Asterisk boxs is down 2) do LB - you can use in parallel multiple Asterisk boxes and to balance the traffic between 3) you can terminate TLS (from client) and convert to UDP to deliver to Asterisk. Marc, Darrin has a point here - if you want to give a quick try to something, it is nice to be able to install it easily. We already have an APT (for debian) repo up and running (still beta). We could do the same for RPMs or, in the worst case, to generate the packages for download.

Re: [asterisk-users] [OpenSIPS-Users] Asterisk is not designed for University with largeuser base?
Hi Yehavi, Please see my inline comments: Yehavi Bourvine wrote: Hello, Sorry for the delay - was out of office. I also cross-posting it to OpenSIPS list. I have a small pilot (20-30 phones) which also does some sort of SIP to PRI transcode for our old PBX. The pilot is base on Asterisk and mostly Polycom-501 phones. It works quite well, but I have a few minor/missing issues: - I have the RPID patch, and unattended transfers fails with it. - No SLA, only BLF. I know there is SLA, but it is cumbersome to deploy. - Confference is limited to 3 participants. I guess I can do more with external server but didn't manage yet to make it working. - No busy dial again which is required by our users. Now, to the original issue: I tried adding 1000 extensions to the SIP database, and then use SIPP to send one REGISTER for each extension. After doing so Asterisk still worked, but it was continously accessing the database for all these extensions, just polling them. This raised a red flag to me, and I decided to check the following config: OpenSIPS/Kamailo/etc. as registrar and SIP switch for the phones, while using Asterisk only for media related issues (which is the common suggestion here). Actual this is the natural way of doing. You have two pieces of software, with different purposes, but complementary in the same time. Asterisk is an IPPBX handling media and implementing a lot of nice class5 features - and an PBX is not more large numbers of lines OpenSIPS is an softswitch, no media, limited class 5 features, but nice routing and able to handle hundreds of thousands of line and subscribers See: http://www.opensips.org/index.php?n=Resources.DocsTutLoadbalancing Now, I have new problems: - SLA works, but very fragile. - Not BLF, although I think it will be solve with the dialog handling on OpenSIPS 1.5 yes, there is such a module (thanks to the combination of dialog and presence features) - Same confference and busy dial problem. Next week our management is going to decide (I hope...) how to proceed: Do nothing (stay with the Nortel as we are tight on budget), go to open source or to a commercial solution. Although a commercial solution allows me so sleep well at night, I am going to recommend the open source direction. If accepted, then I will continue the development and you'll hear me quite a lot here asking hard questions :-) Well, a commercial solution does not exclude open source - there are lot of companies offering commercial products based on OSS. So, you can get a good price (no licenses) and you can still sleep well :). James Body from Truphone was asked (during a VON when he had an OpenSER talk) if using OSS is cheaper - the answer was no, it is not, but the difference comes in what you get in the end - instead of paying for 70% licence code and 30% for customization, with OSS you can pay 100% for customization/tunings. So, at the end you get exactly what you want and not a compromise solution (cost versus requirements). BTW, If I didn't say so far: we have around 8,000 extensions on 4 Notel PBX'es, using around 10 PRI's to the world.

The Asterisk.org development team is pleased to announced the release of Asterisk release candidates 1.6.0.7-rc2, 1.6.1.0-rc3, and beta release 1.6.2.0-beta1. Additionally, new release candidates of Asterisk-Addons 1.6.0.2-rc1 and 1.6.1.0-rc3 have been created. Note that the 1.6.1 series of Asterisk-Addons is compatible with both Asterisk 1.6.1 and 1.6.2 branches. These releases are available for immediate download from http://downloads.digium.com/. These Asterisk releases improve compatibility with T.38 switchovers internally; fixes an issue with Asterisk using poll() on OSX systems when it should not; allows chan_h323 to be built against both OpenH323 and H323Plus libraries (while simplifying the build process); and improve behavior of ast_answer() which was problematic for T.38 re-INVITES and other sorts of channel operations. Additionally, other bugs have also been resolved in these release candidates. The Asterisk-Addons release candidates fix a few minor issues since the last set of release candidates. The first beta release of the Asterisk 1.6.2 series is now available.

I mean for example an ATA device with 24 ports with 24 independent SIP accounts. For example for some dormitories in my area, i want to put an ATA device and move existing lines to VOIP accounts. Only problem is, if i dont give seperate SIP accounts for all ports, i can not control who is calling where... And the billing system will also be a problem in that case.

Re: [asterisk-users] Looking for clues to this error message
Hi Cary, I glanced at the code in main/devicestate.c and it seems the AST_DEVICE_NOT_INUSE is set when the agent channel does not exist ... and that's most likely true when the agent is not logged in or you had asterisk reloaded and the information about agent has been lost ... (true only for callback agents) Are you using callback agents ? Can you describe the Queues announcement problem in more detail ?

Please check UPGRADE.txt for correct configuration settings. [Cary Fitch] We are running 1.4.22 and this message popped up in console. It could be causing our Queues announcement problem, because if all members don't show busy.. there will be no announcements. However, I see no references to such an issue in any upgrade documents I have found. Any one have a tip?

Re: [asterisk-users] Music on Hold doesn't play back for external callers
Do you have zaptel timing working ? (or dahdi) ? If no timing is available then if there's no incoming audio frames coming from the external SIP channel then no outgoing audio will be produced (even if you have MOH application working) The trigger to fire the outgoing audio frame comes from the incoming audio frame. So check if the Answer + Echo application work. Also if you have VAD which means your SIP device doesn't send audio frames when there's silence detected = you'd also have the same problem = not see audio going to your phone.

I am running asterisk version 1.4.22, and have a default script set up in two places for MoH playback.

The internal devices requesting MoH are using the SCCP protocol load image(registered elsewhere) and then they are SIP trunked to Asterisk. Asterisk uses a second separate SIP trunk to peer with the PSTN. -Greg -- Windows Live™ SkyDrive: Get 25 GB of free online storage.
