[asterisk-users] PRI Problem

2011-08-16 Thread Eric Merkel
I am having a problem with a new PRI turn-up on dahdi 2.5.0 and
asterisk 1.8.5 that I have not seen before. The PRI is setup as B8ZS,
ESF and the span shows up and ok. This PRI is merely a crossover T1
going into an old DC0 class 5 switch.

I am getting the following errors over and over again

[Aug 16 10:26:10] NOTICE[8002]: chan_dahdi.c:3043
my_handle_dchan_exception: PRI got event: HDLC Bad FCS (8) on
D-channel of span 1
[Aug 16 10:26:10] NOTICE[8002]: chan_dahdi.c:3043
my_handle_dchan_exception: PRI got event: HDLC Abort (6) on D-channel
of span 1

I am also showing CRC4 errors on span as well.

# asterisk -rx dahdi show status

Fra Codi Options  LBO
T2XXP (PCI) Card 0 Span 1OK  1  0  2938622
ESF B8ZS  0 db (CSU)/0-133 feet (DSX-1)

I am leaning towards a misconfiguration on the span on the switch side
but here is my setup. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

 I'm not familiar with this switch however...

 I am getting the following errors over and over again

 Do these errors start right away or does it take a little bit of time
 before they start appearing?



The error pretty much right away.

 I am also showing CRC4 errors on span as well.

 You have this configured for the switch to provide you timing. Is the
 switch really expecting to provide timing to the TE220?


I guess I was just assuming the switch would provide the timing as the
telco normally provides this. Would you recommend just turning the
timing off?

[asterisk-users] 4 Port FXO interface

2010-08-13 Thread Eric Merkel (Mail Lists)
 

I am looking to build a small PBX for an office that has 3 incoming analog
lines and less than 10 extensions.

 

For the Asterisk server I am going to use a small form factor PC with no-PCI
slots so the FXO interface needs to be either FXO-SIP or USB. Can anyone
make suggestions?

 

I am looking at an AudioCodes MP114 FXO or possibly two Sangoma U100's but
don't have experience with either.

[asterisk-users] Xorcom Experience

2010-04-19 Thread Eric Merkel
I am looking at using for a Xorcom channel bank to provide some FXO  FXS
ports. Can anyone tell me how well they work with asterisk and your
good/bad experiences with their products?

Also, how well do they work with faxes and modems?

Thanks!

[asterisk-users] pri CLI command not available

2010-01-21 Thread Eric Merkel (Mail Lists)
I am in the process of trying to terminate a PRI into a new * server. The
server has an old T100P T1/PRI card in it. I have compiled the following on
Centos 5.4.

 

dahdi-linux-complete-2.2.1+2.2.1

libpri-1.4.10.2

asterisk-1.4.29

 

Everything seems to have compiled fine. DAHDI reports Found a Wildcard:
Digium Wildcard T100P T1/PRI on bootup. Dahdi_tool shows that the span is
up and active with no alarms however the phone company is not seeing the
trunkgroup going into service. I was wanting to take a look at the PRI
debugs but for some reason the CLI pri option is not available. I libpri
compiled without any issues prior to compiling asterisk. What would cause
the pri debug commands to not be available in the CLI?

Re: [asterisk-users] pri CLI command not available

2010-01-21 Thread Eric Merkel (Mail Lists)
Thanks you were exactly right. I had a problem in my chan_dadhi.conf file.
Basically, I had the channels defined before the signaling and it wouldn't
load. It did not show any errors that I could see on startup and there were
no messages in the /var/log/asterisk/messages but when doing a load
chan_dahdi.so from the command line showed me the problem.

 

Thanks again!

This is often caused by the dahdi module not loading, check
/var/log/asterisk/messages for the reason, or better yet, from the cli load
the module manually and see the error in real time. If I had to guess I
would say it is a configuration error.

 

Thank you and have a  nice day,

Re: [asterisk-users] 7960 Queue Issue

2007-11-04 Thread Eric Merkel
On 11/4/07, Nick Brown [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 Morning All,

 Quick question that has me stumped. Have a queue with several members
 (Statically defined in queues.conf at this stage for testing) who use Cisco
 7960's.

 The queue is configured to use rrmemory and generally this works correctly.
 However if a member is already on a call their phone will still ring (The
 7960 can show multiple incoming calls for one line). I really don't want
 members who are on calls to get more calls. Especially when we start logging
 out members who don't answer.

 Asterisk shows;
 -- Called 1014
 -- SIP/1014-08f2e4d0 is ringing
 -- Local/[EMAIL PROTECTED];1 is ringing
 -- Nobody picked up in 15000 ms

 Short of disabling the feature to show multiple incoming calls on the 7960's
 (Which I don't know if it can be done anyway), has anyone got any
 suggestions?


Yes, you can turn off this in the phone. Go into call preferences on
the phone and turn off call waiting. Not optimal but can be done.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Weird Error When upgrading 7960G to 8.2

2006-05-17 Thread Eric Merkel

I would guess from the error message that you have the filename of the
firmware mispelled in the OS79XX.txt file or it's not in your tftp
directory. It could also be bad permissions on the file.

Hello All,



I just picked up 10 new 7960G's and having a hardtime upgrading the firmware

when I get a new phone, I just plug it into the voice vlan and it auto
grades to the firmware in OS79XX.txt. Now whats happening is im getting a
weird error during the reading of that file.



Here's the output from the TFTP logs.

[Asterisk-Users] Linksys PAP2-NA

2004-09-22 Thread Eric Merkel

I receieved my first PAP2-NA yesterday from our distributor(Tech Data). It
installed pretty easily and has worked great so I went to order some more
of these units today.

When I logged into Tech Data this morning, the PAP2-NA was now marked as
discontinued and no longer available and only the PAP2 version was
available which is the Vonage branded version. :(

I saw someone on the list say that they heard from Cisco that these units
were not due out until Dec. Did Cisco/Linksys pull these units off the
shelves?

[Asterisk-Users] Cisco AS5350 Gateway Intergration

2004-02-22 Thread Eric Merkel
I am beginning a project to integrate * with a Cisco AS5350 gateway for
inbound/outbound termination. If anyone has experience with this, what
channel type would you recommend? H.323, SIP or MGCP?

I've scoured the archives to see what channel type would be the most
stable but haven't found a definitive answer.

Also, if anyone has dealt with this setup before and would be willing to
share an example config (cisco  *), that would be much appreciated!

Thanks.
