It only works on the phones hanging off the tdm400p.
Should this work on all phones? Does anyone have it working on non 
digium FXS phones?
Sounds to me like you have a DTMF problem.  Does other DTMF work from 
your non-Zap devices?

Not dialing, I mean like an IVR or VoicemailMain.

I've got Polycom and Cisco phones and quite frankly, I prefer the Polycom 
Soundpoint IP-500 and 600 to my Cisco's now. All things being equal 
between the phones, the following are why I prefer the Polycoms:

1. Better speakerphone than the Cisco 7960s. Despite the fact that Cisco 
licensed Polycom's SpeakerPhone technology, the SoundPoint IP 500 and 600 
just sound and work better.

2. Lower price point: $185 for a NEW SoundPoint IP 500 is better than the 
$225 I see for used 7960s.

3. FTP based provisioning. TFTP is fine, but doesn't work very well 
through some NAT implementations. The PolyCom's can be centrally 
provisioned from any FTP server, and NAT doesn't seem to be a problem for 
it.

4. More intuitive User Interface. My clients require less training and are 
up and running quicker on the Polycoms.

These are my opinions I love BOTH phones, and you can't go wrong with 
either choice, but for my needs the Polcom's work a lot better.
 The Polycoms also include a power supply and SIP firmware, which the 
Ciscos
do not.  Overall I just think the Polycoms are a better value.

Grandstream does not support a dialplan.  It is supposed to support 
Early Dial, but didn't work.  I've been told that recent firmware 
fixes the early dial bug.  I doubt that Early Dial is the solution. 
The solution is to buy a good IP Phone.  Polycom and SIPura both 
support continue dialtone after digit.  Cisco ATAs do not.  I don't 
know if the Cisco IP phones do or not.

probably intentional.
So, try placing the ignorepat in your handset-contexts instead.
Well, it works now on the Zap channels but not on the SIP phones.
Does anyone know how to fix this for SIP phones? but it's not that

The idea is to have 2 or more sip clients behind some NAT and been able to
connect to a remote asterisk box.
I don't know why people think this.  Any router with PAT (Port Address

routers support PAT (but may not call it that).

e.g. If I dial on a Zap Channel, Zap answers the call the moment the

SCSI RAID can cause the problem.  If disabling hyper threading does not

I really hope that they are wrong, as I don't feel like throwing away my

I've gotten some iffy advice from Digium tech support before.
There is not a specific issue with RAID that I know of.  However, it is 
common for some kernel modules to lock interrupts for very long amounts 
of time.  This will cause problems.  Graphics is well known for this, as 
is some RAID drivers.

2. Low ringing voltage still (~44V AC). I have used the boostringer=1 option 
when loading wcfxs, did I miss something at compile time?
3. Rogue on-hook 109V AC voltage (11V AC off-hook) on both FXS ports. I have 
conformed that it is being generated by the card itself. I repeat, it is not 
being induced on the wire. After finding it a the wall jack I was able to 
sample the same 109V AC at the card itself with no cables attached.
4. Random calls dropped on the FXO ports from both FXS and SIP clients. The 
drop is usually preceded by a 2-3 second buzzing sound on the line. This occurs 
with both incoming and outgoing calls.
It should be noted that the card is sharing an IRQ with another device (the USB 
controller to be exact). No matter what slot the card is inserted in it ends up 
sharing an IRQ. To that end I made sure it was sharing with an unused device 
(no USB devices attached).
Looking for help here...

2. Disconnect asterisk and install an ordinary analog phone. Take
the phone off-hook and measure the AC. If the value is very small,

Put the phone on-hook and measure again. If the value is large, then
go looking for the source of the induced AC. Things like wall-warts,
fluorescent light ballasts, any device with a transformer in it,
electric motors (of some fairly large size), desktop high intensity

I have done some further research, the first RTP packet is sent when
playback() is called.  No others.  The application is running, if I
press a key and goto a different item that would cause a new

To be clear If I call myself, RTP packets are sent.  During a wait no
packets are sent, only when playback() starts, and then only the 1
packet.
This is true of any sip phone I have tried, whether or not it is local
or remote.  I can also call out through asterisk and that works, it just
appears to be having a problem sending packets if it has to create the
noise.  As such this makes asterisk less than usable in my given
situation.
Is Asterisk getting a stream of RTP packets from the SIP client?  What 
happens if you start talking on the SIP device?  Does Asterisk then 
start sending RTP?  It still sounds like VAD and silence supression is 
enabled on the SIP device.

You should not call Hangup from exten = h.

I disagree; you should use Hangup() WHEREEVER you want to make absolutely sure 
the dialplan stops.  If you do post-hangup processing that has some branching 
it's far simpler to simply Hangup at the various branches than to 
Goto(h,end,1).  A lot neater, too.

A warning perhaps, but it should not error out.
exten = h will not be called unless the channel has ALREADY hung up.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Invalid extension handling

Adam Robins wrote:
When an outside callers hits my system, I play them a welcome message
and ask that they enter an extension.  If the extension is invalid, it
tells them so, and asks them to try again.  The relevant logic for this

exten = _2XXX,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN})
;
exten = i,1,Playback,invalid
exten = i,n,Goto(incoming,_NXXNXX,1)
;
[incoming]
exten = _NXXNXX,1,Answer
exten = _NXXNXX,n,Background(welcome); play welcome msg 
ask for extension
exten = _NXXNXX,n,WaitExten(5)   ; Wait for extension
This works fine, however, there is one special case that I would like to
handle differently.  If the caller inadvertently presses the # key
following the extension, I would like to discard the # and then send the
call back onto the stack.  I know how to strip the #, but I can't find
another command like WaitExten that will reprocess the call as new.
Use Goto.  Since you have a pattern of _2XXX if they dial 2XXX# then 
Asteirsk will process the call as 2XXX and just discard the # since 
it's not listening for DTMF since it's already hit the Dial.

Same for _NXXNXX.

My HDLC Abort problems are lessened, but not solved.  We haven't seen the

The HDLC problems were NOT solved or lessened.  However, the telco (after 
insisting that they had throughly tested the lines) discovered that there was 
indeed a problem (unbalanced voltages in one of the pairs).  When they fixed 
this problem, my HDLC Abort problem went away completely.

The lesson I've learned: It's always the telco's fault :-)
MOST of the time, in my experience, HDLC Abort problems are lost data 
caused by something locking interrupts for too long.  As you 
experienced, it can also be caused by line problems.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] VAD/DTX implementation through zaptel cards

The only time PLC makes sense is thwn you are converting FROM VoIP to

For CVS-HEAD you would want to do this on the receiving side in the

TDM (PSTN/telcos) do not support VAD. The entire idea of VAD is not

Doing VAD on audio coming _from_ the TDM world certainly is something 
you might want to do, to dramatically reduce the bandwidth you consume 
when sending the audio via VoIP channels.

This kind of thing is not presently implemented in *, though, but it 
could be. (note: doing it well will require a bunch of CPU, though. I

Unless Digium's plans changed since the last time I spoke to Mark, the

Something is locking interrupts on your system for so long that the 
Digium card is losing data from the PRI.  It could just be a crappy 
motherboard (the SuperMicro board I got recently did this).  Usually 
it's caused by the IDE and you can use the various things listed in 
the mailing list archives like unmasking interrupts, enabling DMA, etc 
to reduce the time interrupts are locked.

You cannot disable call waiting on the polycoms.  Therefore you need 
to use SetGroup and CheckGroup to keep Asterisk from sending more than 
one call to the same SIP peer at the same time.  The polycom will 
ALWAYS accept a second call on a line that's in use.

Do you have your lines register sepratly? E.g. is there a seperate entry
in sip.conf for each line or do they both register as the same sip

Re: [Asterisk-Users] QoS TOS numbers and Cisco IOS

2005-04-12 Thread Eric Wieling
tos=0xb8 will set the the packet to be DSCP EF (Cisco likes to use DSCP)
Rich Adamson wrote:
Does anyone know how setting the TOS bits in iax.conf corresponds to 
the Cisco TOS types?

For example, if I set:
tos=0x04
in iax.conf, and on the Cisco, I use:
access-list 110 permit ip any any tos 4
I can't get the Cisco to match any packets.  I've tried various 
combinations of numbers on both asterisk and the cisco.  I've also 
tried hex to decimal conversion.  I just can't get the Cisco to see the 
TOS bits that I set in iax.conf.

Here's what I'm using.
sip.conf:
tos=0x18  ;lowdelay ;sets ip tos bits (=lowdelay, throughput)  
iax.conf:
tos=lowdelay

Cisco:
class-map match-all voice-rtp
  match access-group 103
access-list 103 permit ip any any tos min-delay
access-list 103 permit ip any any tos 12
C1750#show access-list 103
Extended IP access list 103
permit ip any any tos min-delay (2077271 matches)
permit ip any any tos 12 (651833 matches)
The NAI Sniffer does a better job of showing the bits. Here's two
samples for the above:
sip packet (tos=0x18):
  IP: Type of service = 18
  IP:   000.    = routine
  IP:   ...1  = low delay
  IP:    1... = high throughput
  IP:    .0.. = normal reliability
  IP:    ..0. = ECT bit - transport protocol will ignore the CE bit
  IP:    ...0 = CE bit - no congestion
iax packet (tos=lowdelay):
  IP: Type of service = 10
  IP:   000.    = routine
  IP:   ...1  = low delay
  IP:    0... = normal throughput
  IP:    .0.. = normal reliability
  IP:    ..0. = ECT bit - transport protocol will ignore the CE bit
  IP:    ...0 = CE bit - no congestion
Study the above and the bits become very clear. :)

With analog Zap you cannot do this.  With ISDN you can do this (if you

Background should not support this since you can only SEND audio before

You configure the dialplan for your SIP device ON THE SIP DEVICE. 
DISA is an ugly hack and should only be used to provide dialtone to 
devices in the case of the device being too stupid to have a

Correction, this is true for both IAX and SIP incoming calls on my

Hmm, I did not realize that the Ringing command can be used before the
call is answered, I thought it could only be used after it was
answered.  Putting the Ringing command at the top of the extension
fixed my problem.

I don't believe an iax - sip call is considered answered until the
sip phone picks up. Therefore, the r option instructs asterisk to
provide ringback tone until the sip does answer. (That's not necessarily
true with some other channels though.)
No.  r instructs Asterisk to provide a fake ringback tone.  If you 
need r then something is seriously wrong.  Asterisk will always 
provide rinback tones when it thinks it should.

You need to look at the dialplan on the SIPura device.  The docs for 
the SPA-841 are not very complete when it comes to dialplans, but 
SIPura uses the same dialplan syntax across all their products.

Here is the (very simple) dialplan on one of my SIPura phones:
(9,1[2-9]xx[2-9]xx|9,[2-9]xx|[2-9]xxx)
Notice the ,  That tells the SIPura to continue the dialtone after it

so as soon as what you dial matches a patterns the SIPura will dial.

Usually you read the documentation.
At the Asterisk CLI do a show applications to show you what Asterisk

To see detailed help for a specific application, like Dial, do show

Don't worry about the t option at this time (and don't use that

In MY extensions.conf I have a comment above [incoming] that says 
something like Calls without a destination number land here, usually 
from the PSTN.

s is ONLY EVER called when Asterisk doesn't know what number was 
dialed.  This (generally) only happens if a call is coming in on an 
ANALOG port, or if the call is coming in on a T-1/E-1 port that does 
not have DID/DDI service on it.

An IP Phone or ATA normally send the number dialed to Asterisk and 
therefore if you dial 5551212 then the ATA will send the call to exten

Now if your ATA is not sending the correct numbers or not waiting for 
you to finish dialing then the problem is with ATA and NOT Asterisk. 
You didn't bother to tell us what ATA you are using, so I can't really 
give you any more advice.

nat=yes makes Asterisk use the public IP that is inserted by the far 
side NAT router instead of the private IP the SIP device puts in the 
packet.

Perhaps there is a problem in your sip.conf that is causing the SPA's 
packets not to match anything.

sip show peers will tell you if Asterisk is seeing the public or the 
private IP of the far end SPA.

[Asterisk-Users] OT: ManxPower 2005 European Tour

2005-04-09 Thread Eric Wieling
I've helped a lot of people on the mailing lists and on IRC #asterisk. 
and wanted to let people know that I will be in Europe between May 19 
and June 21.  Stockholm (VON 2005), Brussels (holiday/vacation), 
Amsterdam (holiday/vacation), and Madrid (Astricon).  There are 
several weeks during my trip that I have no current plans for and may 
add other cities to my itinerary.

I'm looking for recommendations for lodging and tourist activities in 
all of the above cities.

I would be interested in meeting Asteriskers for drinks or coffee in 
any of these cities.

I am also looking for employment in Europe.  I would prefer the 
Benelux area, but all serious offers will be considered.  I have 
experience in a number of areas including Asterisk/SIP/IAX (2 yrs), 
Linux (10 yrs), WAN/Frame/T-1/DSL (10 yrs), and more.  I can do 
limited programming in C, Perl and PHP.

I am a citizen of the USA and want to relocate to Europe.

With Teliax I noticed that the delay between the Dial command running

just unusual for a VoIP connection.  More like the delay when dialing 
out of an analog port, but they don't use analog ports.

I have a STUN server running on my Asterisk box which seems to work

I never understood why Asterisk users seem to have such a fetish for 
STUN and SER.  Most people don't need them.  If you have many phones 
behind NAT and you want the phones to call each other and you want to 
enable reinvites then, yes, you need SER or STUN or something like that.

Asterisk seems to be commonly used in three ways:
1) Home Phone System
2) Business Phone System
3) Internet Telephony Service Provider
Generally none of these types of use has a large percentage of phones 
behind NAT and calling each other.

Companies like FWD, etc DO need this since most of their users are 
calling each other.

If you turn on debugging what you'll see is that the Sipura has

by repeating the signal (very loudly I might add)
So this appears to be a bug in the most current firmware. I've

This is the way NAT works.  It's not a problem for Asterisk unless you 
are doing something silly like port forwarding 4569/UDP on your NAT

Check your Zaptel card timing setting.  i.e. span=1,1,0,esf,b8zs in

http://www.digium.com/index.php?menu=documentation
specifically the link to 
http://www.packetizer.com/voip/diagnostics/bandcalc.html

Unfortunatly the above URL is not terribly clear and understandable.
People complain about Asterisk's lack of good, organized, understandable 
documentation.  It might help if they actually used the documentation 
and links that ARE available.

Here we have an example of one person that didn't do the research 
(understandable, since he/she might not have known about the 
Documentation link on Digium's web site) and then asked a question and 
then another person that ALSO didn't do the research (I'm guilty of this 
too, but am getting much better) but answered the question anyway.

how much bandwith is used to go between a phone set and the asterisk server
when a call is in progress?  Just trying to plan out a system and need some

Yes.  Read up on the various codecs and how much bandwidth they use.

Hi,
I recently encountered an odd situation: the network cable to my
SPA-841 got unplugged while it was in the midst of a call.  I got it
re-plugged in about 30 seconds, and the phone rebooted.  The phone
showed no evidence of the previous call in progress and worked like
normal.
Asterisk, on the other hand, believed the call was still in progress
-- my outgoing line was still in use, and it showed up in the show
channels list.  I resorted to the soft hangup command to terminate
it.
What could I do so that Asterisk would automatically terminate a call
in these situations?
 Wait.  Asterisk will eventually realize the call is gone.  That's what 
the whole Maximum retries exceeced message is about.

Hey Everyone - 

I am having a problem that is keeping me awake at night.ok, so maybe
not keeping me awake, but it is frustrating. :-)
I am running Asterisk 1.0.7 on Gentoo (2.6.10-gentoo-r6) on an Intel
700Mhz box with 512MB of RAM.
The system is very light, with maybe 35 SIP and IAX connections. I am
using NuFone and Konfer for dialtone with no traditional TDM cards
installed at all. Overall system load is around .4 or less most of the
time.
Overall - a very simple configuration.
I am using (mostly) the Linksys PAP2-NA units for deployment. I
preconfigure the units, then ship them out to the people that need them.
I also have several of the Digium IAXy units in use.
The problem I am starting to see is that a person's extension will work
great, and then I will start to see failed registrations for their unit
over and over again. When this happens, the units fall offline. Then the
unit will magically reregister and start to work again.
I had assumed (initially) that it was a bad unit, so I replaced it, but
then it started to happen to other units as well.
When registered, the units in question have ping time under 50 to 60 ms,
and no latency associated with them. Packet loss is extremely minimal or
none at all.
There was a thread recently, I don't recall if it was -users or -dev 
about SIP registrations failing when network latency was high.  I don't 
remember seeing a solution.

I would suggest trying Google, but I'll bet it has not indexed the 
mailing list archives recently.  Try searching manually.

Is there any ${var} that has the number dialed in on? (that would be 
optimum).
Your carrier can tell you how many digits they will send to you. 
Asterisk sees these digits and will match exten = 1234,1,Blah if the 
carrier sends you 4 digits.

Remember Asterisk does not really support DID on analog ports, only 
T-1/E-1 (including PRI) ports , BRI ports, and VoIP ports.

Hello all,
I was hoping to be able to call a mobile and if it is un-reachable for
whatever reason (e.g. switched off) then I was expecting an unobtainable
response that would be detected in Asterisk. It seems that the operator
(Virgin in UK) imedately completes the call and plays an automated
message before clearing the call. Does anyone know if there a way of
avoiding the call completion for mobiles? I have noticed that Sipgate
charge for a calls to an unavailable mobile regardless.
Bellsouth at least WILL play an automated message, but NOT answer the 
line.  I work around this by adding the r option to the Dial command. 
 The r option of course provides a fake ringing sound to the caller, 
even if it REALLY should be doing something else like playing telco 
audio before answer, or a busy tone.

This is quite interesting.
I tested calls to 2 mobiles that I knew were off, and not diverted to 
voicemail. 1 with Telstra, the other with vodafone (I'm in Australia). 
Via ISDN, both calls were shown as unanswered by asterisk. When the 
calls went to voicemail, the call was deemed to be answered.

Via analogue circuits, the call is shown as answered, no matter what.
That's what I would expect.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] patlooptest: Usage, setup?

2005-04-01 Thread Eric Wieling aka ManxPower
Eric Wieling aka ManxPower wrote:
Does anyone know what I need to do to use patlooptest?  I have what I 
think is a T-1 loopback plug in the card (1-port, TE110P), but I still 
see a red alarm.  Is this normal?  I don't even know where to start for 
this.
From Digium Support:
You will need to specify each span as span=1,0,0,esf,b8zs.  You must
change the span number of course.
Then you will specify clear=1-24 for a T1 or clear=1-31 for an E1.
The only other options you should have in your zaptel.conf is loadzone
and defaultzone.  It does not matter what these are set to.
Then you will have to reload the zaptel kernel modules.
Run make tests in your zaptel source directory.
You will need a T1 loopback cable plugged into the back of the card.
Once the T1 loopback cable is installed the span should go green.  You
may check the status by using zttool.  If the span is not green then
your T1 loopback cable is faulty.  You can make a T1 loopback cable
using wires 1 to 4 and 2 to 5.
You will run ./patlooptest /dev/zap/1 180.  The 180 is the length in
seconds that the test will run.  /dev/zap/1 is the first clear channel
on this span.  If you wish to test a second span then you would start
with the first clear channel of that span.  Span 2 would start at
/dev/zap/25 on a T1.
patlooptest will only output on errors.
Disregard any errors the first 15 seconds of the test.  Very few errors
over a long period of time are normal.

By your command...
Made the suggested changes.  Called in via SIP and Cell Phone.  Still
no response to DTMF.
It was worth a try. 8-)  Try allow=gsm instead, but I doubt it will make 
any difference.  Your other option is to just switch providers.
