Yup, that fixed it, modules.conf now starts with

[modules]
autoload=no
load => res_sorcery_config.so
load => res_pjproject.so
load => res_rtp_asterisk.so

; 

Thanks!

[asterisk-users] res_rtp_asterisk.so problem with minimal (ish) chan-sip based Asterisk

2019-12-22 Thread Andreas Sikkema
Hi,

For years I've been running a minimal (ish) SIP based Asterisk with
the modules based on chan-sip. For various reasons unrelated to
Asterisk the machine the latest incarnation of this configuration has
been updated to Debian Buster and thus to Asterisk 16. Since this
upgrade I have a dependency problem related to res_rtp_asterisk.so.

So the old config was:
[modules]
autoload=no

load => res_rtp_asterisk.so
load => res_http_websocket.so
load => chan_local.so
load => codec_ulaw.so
load => codec_alaw.so
load => pbx_config.so
load => chan_sip.so
load => app_dial.so
load => func_callerid.so
load => func_cut.so
load => func_logic.so

[global]


Since Asterisk 16 (Debian Buster version) I have a dependency problem,
where res_rtp_asterisk.so is dependent on res_pjproject.so:

When I try to make a call:
[Dec 22 22:00:55] ERROR[6093][C-0001]: rtp_engine.c:474
ast_rtp_instance_new: No RTP engine was found. Do you have one loaded?

[Dec 22 22:04:04] WARNING[28261]: res_pjproject.c:665 load_module:
Failed to register pjproject log_mappings object with sorcery

I haven't been able to find what I need to do to get "Wizard 'config'"
to be applied or why I need it. Googling for this phrase suggested I
created an empty config file for pjproject but this also didn't
resolve this problem.

I am sure I must have missed something, can someone point me in the
correct direction?

Thanks!

Are both your servers behind the same NAT router?

Re: [asterisk-users] Suspicious routers

Most of the cheaper NAT implementations appear to assume that there's
ever only just one client on the LAN side sending traffic from port A to
a server port on the WAN side. For TCP this assumption is a nice hack
with not too much risk, for UDP applications which send traffic from a
well known port to a well known port, this is killing.

I've added a full chapter on this problem in our manual that gets sent
to customers, which basically says to reconfigure the SIP clients to all
use a different source port for SIP traffic. This should be applicable
to most UDP based protocols.

I think this is valid for most routers below a certain price point
($250?), perhaps those running Linux might not be affected.

In latina_open you first play a WAV file, and then go to the queue, in
latina_close you go directly to the queue. That probably explains the
difference between the two situations.

I've never played much with the Queue command so I don't know if there's
a flag that is needed to add ringing from the Queue command or that a
simple additional Ringing command in latina_open might help.

Re: [asterisk-users] Movistar sip Mexico

I have had the same problem with a carrier, where some calls we receive
from them have an image and an audio stream in the initial INVITE, even
though the call is intended to use the audio stream. Responding back
accepting T.38 will fail and *all* other options trying to reject the
T.38 using known SIP supported methods will also fail. The *only* option
is to just ignore the image stream, which is not allowed by the current
set of SIP RFCs...

Asterisk used to ignore the image stream, but since the 1.8(?) timeframe
its behaviour has changed more towards standards compliance in this
area. And now we're between a rock and a hard place.

The only way out that I could find is to put something in front of
Asterisk that just removes the image stream from initial INVITEs when
received from the carrier. (OpenSIPS has this nice method called
remove_stream() since a couple of versions)

Complaining about this didn't help, "Asterisk is not certified because
Open Source", was basically their answer.

It's actually pretty easy.

If an INVITE message has a tag parameter in both To and From headers,
it's a re-INVITE. If the To header doesn't have a tag parameter, it's an
initial INVITE.

The problem is that some customers of mine (erm ours) who are running an
Asterisk based sot PBX are having some issues that are remarkably
similar to what is described here. I can unfortunately only confirm that
not every SIP client handles a null port reply or a 488 Not Acceptable
Here message as we would normally expect.

It's a complicated scenario involving a large carrier with legacy
hardware that I don't have access to to do a quick test :-(

I ran into a similar problem this week. There's a number of SIP
implementations (either legacy or not good enough) that don't handle a
zero port denial of a media stream quite right.

In the past these implementations would have worked fine when the called
party would have just ignored the offending media stream, instead of
sending an explicit deny.

[asterisk-users] Recommended T.38 settings for receiving faxes from Cisco AS5350XM

2012-12-20 Thread Andreas Sikkema
Hi,

What are the recommended T.38 settings for sending/receiving faxes
from Cisco AS5350XM gateways? The chan_sip.conf file has a remark
about what Cisco is doing wrong and says that the values received from
the gateway should be overridden, but doesn't say what settings to use
for maximum success.

Can anyone give me some suggestions? I don't know much about T.38 and
I've been told I have to solve this...

Thanks!

I don't know if these are available in the US (presuming you are from
that area in te world), but there are DSL modem/router suppliers who
sell an Ethernet version of their product complete with internal ATA. I
know some of them have VPN functionality, so that might work around some
of your limitations. They are not Raspberry Pi priced, but not *that*
much more.

Developing something yourself from the ground up might be more expensive
in the short/mid term

I am thinking along the lines of a Draytek Vigor2110Vn, the wifi and
routing capabilities are not used, but the SIP, VPN and FXS should be
able to fit your needs. And with the possibility for automatic
provisioning using an ACS..

A PBX provides functionality to users. An SBC *can* secure a PBX
against the outside world, but that is configuration dependent. The
more powerful the SBC, the more configuration it requires to make
things work, let alone secure whatever it is supposed to protect.

An SBC is in essence a B2BUA, looking quote a lot like a really simple
pass through Asterisk configuration.

We're using a GSM gateway to send SMS messages from our network
monitoring system. Once you dig through some chipset specs it was
suprisingly easy to start sending SMS messages. While we didn't
investigate receiving messages fully we did one quick test and that was
easy enough. You just need some daemon to monitor the gateway to see if
it has received a message and pass it on to Asterisk, sending the other
way around is not that different.

If you want to extend the range of a DECT basestation you can use
repeaters, but you then lose DECT encryption and you can only add up to
6 repeaters around one basestation.

Extending your range beyond that requires a proper DECT network and
brings you into a whole new cost level. But that can go up to 256x12
handsets and 256x8 (IIRC) simultaneous calls...

Are you sure your provider *always* sends data from this /29?

Maybe you have this in your iptables as well and sometimes audio is
received from outside this /29 and therefore blocked?

The value for 18 is defined in some RFC as being G729/8000 so there's no
real need to redefine it in the SDP, especially not since the answering
party already knows that the initiating party also uses the same value.

Inconsistent configuration over multiple routes probably. I know I have
one route (the default actually) to a number of destinations where I am
100% percent able to send redirected number information, but another
route just will not pass it on to the destination.

So normally calls to these destinations have nice caller id as if A was
calling C (at least that's what C sees in their display) but every now
and then I flow over to the alternative route and the information is
lost, C doesn't see A, but B.

Nothing I can do about it, been fighting over it for ages but I just
doesn't seem to be able to make it work.

I've used them in the past and still use the little brother (AS5350XM).
I have no experience with T1s, but I used them to convert EuroISDN E1s
to SIP. They were very stable (I don't think I've ever seen one crash)
but can be a pain when you want to set them up.

These machines were originally designed as modembanks for internet
access so the default config has an interface for every B channel. That
is a pain to browse through the configuration. Grouping them solves this.

Make sure you understand how to route calls using dialpeers, and make
sure you understand this before putting them in service. These are very,
very capable machines with lots of useful configuration options.

Make sure you buy enough DSP channels to cover all simultaneous calls
that need transcoding, we generally bought enough DSP cards so we could
transcode all simultaneous calls. If you add it all up we were actually
buying more DSP channels than E1 channels were available, for some
reason Cisco designed the machine like this, perhaps to cover for slow
call teardowns occupying DSPs too long.

And if that still doesn't give a clue where Asterisk is looking for
beep, monitor the asterisk executable with strace and grep its output
for beep and that should point  to your problem. You might need a little
while to figure strace out but that is the way to be absolutely sure
what Asterisk is trying to do. Everything else is just guessing.

Then you're asking the wrong people. It is totally possible to get a
Patton to be configured correctly. Since PRI is much easier to configure
than a BRI interface (PtP, PtMP?) it shouldn't be that hard.

The problem with these very powerful VoIP to ISDN gateways is that they
have lots of things to configure, some more intuitive than others. If
you're using real hardware, be prepared to spend real time and effort
into configuring them.

The webinterfaces on Patton or Audiocodes gateways are miles better than
the CLI on a Cisco AS5350 or the CLI on an Acme Packet SBC. The bad rep
Patton and Audiocodes seem to have is probably related to them using the
same software for a simple 2xFXO port gateway as those for 4xISDN BRI or
4x ISDN PRI.

Build a Linux based router and use netem/tc to mess around with the
routed traffic. You can insert packetloss, jitter, etc and have it be
reproducable.

What part of the system isn't working? The "route calls to the
appartment" part? That could be replaced by Asterisk with enough
(analogue?) ports to serve the front door and appartments using existing
wiring.

If the door part also needs replacing because it is proprietary to the
old system, you could use a SIP dooropener/intercom, but these are
generally expensive, starting around EUR800/$800? or so and probably
need an expension for apartment buttons. And you'd need to run new
wiring to the door and perhaps change the lock.

And then there's the apartments, it could get *very* expensive when you
need to replace wiring and the "phones" in each apartment to something
VoIP like.

We tried an Android SIP client last week and it had *huge* "echo"
issues. The Android client operated by a colleague sitting next to me
calling a normal SIP phone which I answered. When I started talking I
heard myself twice. First the soft direct echo trough the air and then a
really loud, very good quality second echo.

Muting the microphone on the Android side did not solve the really loud
second echo which suggests to me there might be something of a loop in
the operating system looping the audio back.

The phone is a Sony Ericsson Experia model, no idea what the exact type is.

I have heard/seen these kind of complaints and in my experience they
occur with _very_ low amounts of packet loss. The codec gets confused
and can't output the proper audio, just a slightly incorrect version of
it. Packet loss like this at the start of a call, which could be caused
by some form of NAT traversal via a media proxy where media is only sent
both ways when audio has been received from both endpoints, is not
unheard of.

Network bandwidth is not a very good indicator of the quality of your
network Make sure you know if there's packet loss on individual links
(managed switches FTW), what the jitter is end to end, etc.

If it is possible to make a network trace in a Wireshark compatible

lots of statistics, including packet loss, jitter, etc. Check the
Wireshark site (http://www.wireshark.org/) for more information.

What I have noticed with consumer grade NAT routers is that they seem to
be optimized to only keep track of one single client that is allowed to
connect to a server:port tuple on the outside. So if a SIP client on
local ip_a and port 5060 on the inside of the router is talking to a
server outside of the NAT at ip_s and port 5060 it works fine, but the
minute a second client at local IP ip_b and port 5060 starts to talk to
ip_s at port 5060 on the outside of the same NAT router all traffic from
server_s is sent to ip_b and ip_a will receive nothing.

With NAT entry timeouts and regular traffic from ip_a and ip_b you might
see only one local client being reachable all the time or connectivity
hopping from one to te other at regular intervals.

There are NAT implementations that do not have this problem, but that
might require a more expensive router or you can configure the SIP
clients to all use different local ports. Perhaps this is a result of
some sort of SIP ALG or a stupid basic NAT implementation to reduce code
complexity on the router, but it is a nuisance either way.

I think the solution would be to escape the , with a backslash, so 
your query would look like this:
SELECT TIMEDIFF(callend\,callstart) FROM tblCall WHERE id=7

Maybe even the brackets ()

If Asterisk was not used for registration purposes, but only 
for diallingplan "tricks" and leaving the registration parts to 
a SIP registrar/proxy like OpenSER. Then registering multiple 
contacts for the same username is, IIRC, more or less default

On a quad core Linux machine it is possible to have a totally 
unusable machine with a loadavg of 4 or a perfectly usable 
machine with loadavg of 10.

If you look at loadavg alone you never get the "full" picture.

In the first case the CPU load on all cores is 100% while the 
CPU load in case number two could be something around 25% on 
each, but they are all doing very I/O intensive stuff.

I frequently see machines doing loads of over 4 with total CPU 
load not above 100% (of 400% possible)

Using MYSQL() (or equivalent) heavily in the dialingplan is IMHO the 
nicest way of doing things like this. You can do lots of simultaneous 
calls before getting into trouble. 

Appending stuff to the CDR userfield is just plain ugly and asking for 
trouble (are you sure you can always separate the different values?).

There are several other things I would like to see from CDRs...

- a way to get the sip callid it's own column, instead of appending it
to 
  the userfield column (maybe as a "channel-callid" or something like 
  that so other channels can use it as well?)
- when a call takes longer than x seconds/minutes/hours a "yes, this

If you have no statuc stuff in your dialplan, how do you use the 'include =>'

Hardly, you're not required to use it ;-)

You have heard of the s? I think in our hundreds of lines of dialplan, I think 
we have at most 10 lines that match extensions, the rest is all handled by s.

What we have a lot is the following in extensions.conf

include  _.,1,Goto(example-outgoing,s,1)

And then in example.conf:

[example-outgoing]

exten => s,1,DoSomeStuff
exten => s,2,SetVar(outgoingCallerID=VALUE)

You can't use a generic extension and search a database table for 
$EXTEN <-> callerid relation and then set it? 

Your diallingplan is _so_ different to what we do, yet what you 
want to do is pretty much the same to what we do all the time.

But our Asterisk boxes have _no_ sip CPE's registered to them and 
our diallingplan is littered with database lookups. We have no 
static stuff in our dialingplan. And we have quite a number of 
users.

But no queues etc.

Why not do something like this (in pseudo dialplan):



SetVar(outgoing_callerid=1234567)

Set(CALLERID(NUM)=${outgoing_callerid})
Dial(outgoing destination)

This will not screw up your extesnions matching, but you will 
need to check that outgoing_callerid has been filled before setting 
callerid (or make sure it is always filled with something sensible).

Check the variables page in the wiki on exact syntax ;-)

That's because a REINVITE is generally used to change from one

existing audio, waiting a little while and then starting a new 
audio stream. 

So far this one of the reasons why I don't like reinvite...

Why is your asterisk startup script running before networking has been 
setup? Asterisk has the same networking dependencies as apache, so I 
start it around the same time using the same priority as apache and as 
far as I know networking should work at that time or not at all, not 
somewhere in between.

I've tried it in the last couple of days. The biggest issue for 
me ist that it HAS to be on the same side of a NAT as the 
server it talks to (asterisk, ser, etc). If it is on the 
private side of a NAT and the server is on the public side, it 
doesn't work. I've read something on the Nokia forums that 
Nokia is aware of the problem and it will be solved.

My problem is that they want to solve this using STUN etc, 
while I would prefer they also wouldn't have the software 
care if it is on the inside of a NAT like most other CPE's 
so our platform can take care of things.

I would expect these kind of messages to be played without 
"answering" the call. IIRC on ISDN this is done using a 
FACILITY message with a "start audio" IE included (I'm not 
that much into ISDN to be more precise).

On H.323 this is called "early media" and in SIP this would be 
signalled using a 186 Session Progress message.

Is this new behaviour? I've got an asterisk 1.2.5 installation that 
does not use the same CallID on both the incoming and outgoing side 
of a call through our Asterisk machine.

[Asterisk-Users] SIPCALLID, but which callid?

2006-06-16 Thread Andreas Sikkema
Title: SIPCALLID, but which callid?






Hi,

To combine two sources of CDR's I want Asterisk to save the SIP callid for
all calls. I know there's a variable that contains the SIP CallID value,
but is this the callid value of the incoming INVITE message or the outgoing
message? Are they the same? (I've not yet checked a trace, I'm sorry for
that). I've tried to read chan_sip, but couldn't find something in the time
I had today. I've found hardly any documentation o this variable, apart from
that it exists and that it contains "the" SIP CallID value.

Can anyone enlighten me?

When I worked at Philips there were two variants:
- camp on busy
- camp on no answer

The second one is tricky; after the destination number has 
been used again, the switch will dial the originator and 
then the destination and connect the two legs.

The _only_ way to reliably (well, in as much as that is possible) to 
test if your Asterisk is working, is to build a monitoring system that 
does more or less the same as a typical user would do.

We have a system with two modems connected to ATA's and they dial each 
other via multiple routes so we test all of the major scenarios. 

We only test if calls are routed through, not if the call itself 
establishes (media running) to prevent major costs from such a 
system. I works reasonably well, it seems to detect 99% of the major 
problems.

Ethereal can also show SIP traffic on-the-fly! 

"update list of packets in real time" and

A "sip" display filter is needed so you only see SIP traffic, 
a sip capture filter might be needed for very busy networks

I'd say support for one of these options  should be 
available whenever Asterisk generates _any_ media by 
itself, including conferencing.

IVR functionality and the like become much better when 
ztdummy or another timing source supported by Asterisk is 
available.

The same thing can happen when a SIP "ATA" is configured to 
use rfc2833 but is also a little to lote with the filtering 
out of the DTMF. So sometimes it's not Asterisks fault at 
all ;-)

And then there's some IVR's that don't notice it at all, while others 
are totally unusable.

Just make sure that you use different variable names for each 
query if the values should stay available after the next query.

What we tend to do is grab the data from the database and the stuff 
that should stay around for a longer time is assigned to a new and 
appropriately named variable. So the original variable can be used 
again.

We've got loads of queries in our extensions.conf.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk MySQL CDR - MySQL starting too late

2005-11-21 Thread Andreas Sikkema
> Well that didn't work. When I rebooted MySQL didn't start at all

The level doesn't set _when_ something starts, just _if_ something
starts. Some daemons should start in single user mode, some not. Some
others should only start when in GUI mode, others not, etc. This is what
level controls. When something starts is usually controlled with the
name of the start/stop scripts in /etc/rcx.d/ (or something like that).

Files starting with the S00 prefix are started first, files with S99 are
started last for that runlevel. The same for K00 and K99, but that
describes the time when processes are killed. So if Asterisk is started
using S80asterisk, and MySQL using S50mysqld, then it obviously isn't
going to work as intended. The same also when both are started with S99,
because asterisk will be started before mysqld...

I usually mess around with the numbers, but that is not very
reproducable, dependencies listed in the rpm file (or equivalent)
usually takes care of this. When isntalling from source, you're on your
own.

Do you have the Digium G.729 codec installed? This one provides "show

Depending on how many calls per second you want to perform, 
some dialplan magic might be cheaper than starting up a 
perl process. 

I'd write a diaplan macro for this. If the numbers are in a 
fixed format (4th character is a -, 7th character is a -, 
etc), then it's really simple. 

Something like this:

exten => s,1,SetVar(strPart1 = ${myNumber:0:3}
exten => s,2,SetVar(strPart2 = ${myNumber:4:3}
exten => s,3,SetVar(strPart3 = ${myNumber:7:3}
exten => s,4,SetVar(myNumber = $strPart1$strPart2$strPart3

But I'm using quite an old Asterisk, so current syntax might 
be a little different, but the Wiki suggests this still works.

Did provider1 send the exact same SIP message types to you

Well, if you do this before answering, nobody is going to

Oh, really? Only if you're running a 2.6 kernel or using 
a zaptel card you don't need it.

Buildings do strange things with radio. What might 
seem like overkill could be mandated by liftcages, 
firestairs etc. Also if you want to add dect 
coverage in a busy area where lots of people with 
dect handsets gather (meeting rooms, canteens) you 
need lots of basestations. 

I've worked in a building where there seemed to be an 
overkill of basestations every hallway had 3 or 4, (every 
20 meters or so) and still there were areas with 
insufficient coverage...

You can force Record to record to G.729, but I'm not sure the

Yes, true, but this entirely depends on how the blade is set up. We

We've had Asterisk running on a blade for some time. Blades as 
such can be used but with a couple of restrictions:
- There's probably no room for PCI cards, so no zap hardware
- Check the kind of USB supported on the board (UHCI vs OHCI,

For some reasons we've moved away (non blade related) from the 
blades, but not because blades don't work. We really liked them.

Check what the origin (IP/DNS name) of the incoming SIP message is. 
If it's from asterisk, send it to the user, if it is not from 
asterisk, it must be meant to go to asterisk.

Add a couple of other tests (known user, etc) to it and then I 
think you'll have what you're looking for.

I see these with every single call. I (naturally I'd say) also

As far as I know, Asterisk doesn't support QSIG. Do you 
_have to_ use QSIG?

I'd just use a PRI interface (DTU-PH IIRC) to connect to 
Asterisk with a sutable PCI card in the server.

On the (admittedly relatively old version we're using) this will

[Asterisk-Users] Zaptel based timing for VoIP-only Asterisk

2005-03-29 Thread Andreas Sikkema
Hi,

In a VoIP only environment, Asterisk has to use ztdummy 
to have any chance of playing back understandable audio 
files (without drops, hickups etc). 

I have been using ztdummy to some degree of success, but 
I also have a "Wildcard TDM400P REV E/F Board 1" in the 
Asterisk machine I'm using. I'm not using this card for 
anything at all, but I'm wondering how to set it up for 
timing only. What do I have to do (I have no experience 
at all with zap channels and the zaptel.conf file)?

I was thinking of just the SIP port. I am assuming that asterisk

Use iptables on the asterisk machine to only allow SIP traffic from

[Asterisk-Users] logger reload/restart hanging

2005-02-23 Thread Andreas Sikkema
Hi,

We're running a very old version of Asterisk 
(CVS-HEAD-08/03/04) and we're having some 
problems with logging.

Our logger.conf has the following:
full => notice,warning,error,debug,verbose

After having started Asterisk, asterisk will hang in 
"/usr/sbin/asterisk -rx 'logger reload'" unless some 
output has been sent to the file. I can't find 
anything on bugs.digium.com related to this problem. 
Am I the only one?

Also no useful output will be sent to the log file, 
unless I run "asterisk -rdn" and exit from the 
console. Is this normal? How do I prevent neeeding 
this step?

I know we shoul move to at least 1.0, but we're 
running this in production and we haven't felt the 
need to upgrade. If necessary I can backport...

I'm wondering if they didn't mean a "pseudo" ani? 

Are you sending internal Asterisk ANI or the ANI 
Gobal Crossing is expecting?

hardly any impact at all. Just a window of a few seconds where a 
call cannot be made.

Maybe you're the issue? :-))

A combo of SER and Asterisk is pretty powerfull IMHO.
