Re: [asterisk-users] Voice quality assessment in Asterisk

Those boxes run around $50k USD, I've only seen them once back in the late 
1990s.

At work for customer consulting we have very expensive site licenses for 
Prognosis IPT Assessor which generate great looking pdf reports.

We also use Cisco IOS IP SLA however it doesn't have a reporting mechanism.

The professional way is to do a series of test calls, play a reference file and 
record the audio at the incoming side. You then use both files to calculate a 
MOS score. This method is used by telco's to do quality checks.

How do you typically test voice quality in Asterisk? For example if you like to

Re: [asterisk-users] Opensource Speech recognition for Asterisk

2010-08-22 Thread Jason Aarons (US)
I'm not aware of an open source speech product.

Some great examples where speech recognition works well are 1-800-USA-RAIL,  
Microsoft/Cisco corporate directory 425-882-8080 you can say the employees name 
and be connected and those works great,  1-800-Goog-411 also works well.  
Windows 7 Speech Recognition, Dragon Natually Speaking work pretty good. Vonage 
does a good enough job of sending my home voicemails to my email in Speech to 
Text, I use this app daily, rarely having to listen to actual voicemails.  What 
Speech-Text doesn't convey is anger/happiness, etc.

 This technology is nothing more than a joke so far, not practical at 
 any level. As for free, there is nothing decent.

Actually, speech recognition works fine across the board AS LONG AS you use a 
limited grammar set.  It's the arbitrary language speech recognition that needs 
to be trained to a particular voice.  However, arbitrary language isn't 
normally a common case for IVR systems, which need a limited set of responses 
in order to decide the proper branch in a decision tree.

Re: [asterisk-users] T.38 fax between ATA's and Asterisk and Cisco PGW 2200

2010-07-29 Thread Jason Aarons (US)
WireShark does a good job showing the T38 communication. Most products you can 
also set packet redundancy to send 2 packets.

Your setup was T.38 ATA to T.38 Gateway with PRI/ANALOG/PSTN/G.711.  I've heard 
various problems with SIP/PSTN and faxing, around jitter/packet loss and it's 
not supported by Verizon SIP and others.

Subject: [asterisk-users] T.38 fax between ATA's and Asterisk and Cisco PGW 2200

To provide a reliable fax solution for users connected to a Asterisk 1.6.2.6 
server i have tested a few T.38 capable ATA's:
- Patton M-ATA
- Grandstream HandyTone 486
- Fritz!Box 7170

I have tried Asterisk 1.6.2.6 compiled with SpanDSP-0.0.6pre17 and also 
Asterisk 1.6.2.6 with Fax for Asterisk installed.

These Asterisk servers are connected to a Cisco PGW 2200 + AS5400XM.


Sending fax messages from all ATA's to the PSTN (so ATA - Asterisk - PGW - 
PSTN) failed with a variety of error messages so i tested the different steps 
one by one.


ATA's - Asterisk ReceiveFax:
So far i have only succeeded in sending fax messages from the Fritz!Box 7170 to 
both Asterisk configurations using the ReceiveFax application.
Sending fax messages from the other ATA's to Asterisk using the ReceiveFax 
application failed.


ATA's - PGW:
To exclude Asterisk i have connected the ATA's directly to the PGW; no success 
either.


Asterisk - PGW:
To exclude the ATA's i used the Asterisk SendFax application to send a TIFF 
file to a landline each time with a different fax machine connected to it.

Re: [asterisk-users] ringback tone after MOH, before queue member bridged

I normally work with other 3rd party IVRs, usually once the Agent is Reserved

The trick here is to replace the Music on Hold with a fake ring file.

Good morning,

i've noticed many times that there are IVRs that play a ring tone just before 
bridging me to an agent.  My asterisk does not behave like this but i've always 
wanted to.

I'm now playing with 1.6.2.9 and i've read in queue's doc:

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+cmd+Queue

R — stops moh and rings once an agent is ringing (Asterisk Trunk)

(in queue's optinal parameters).

Could someone please explain this line to me?  I've set this option, i have a 
softphone and an ATA registered to *, pure SIP, nothing more. 
It's not working, either i'm using the r option, which disables MOH and just 
rings, or i'm using R which gives me MOH but no ringing.

It's nothing major, it just would be nice to have.

thanks

Re: [asterisk-users] Complex Dialplan Help Needed

2010-07-12 Thread Jason Aarons (US)
I think you need to ask your SIP provider about Redirecting Header, ask what 
they support and how-to.

I work more with Cisco CallManager and SIP Rediversion Header is new in 
CallManager 8x. Not sure about Asterisk. We have this same problem with Cisco 
Mobility/Single Number Reach, providers usually won't accept a Calling Party 
Number that isn't in your range, some will.

Subject: [asterisk-users] Complex Dialplan Help Needed

Hello all,

I have a project which requires me to rout calls from ten blocks of sequential 
numbers i.e. 02081000100 - 02081000200 (each block - 100 numbers) coming in 
from a telco gateway via Dahdi-SS7 to 10 specific numbers outside the box 
through two to three SIP trunks (trunk 2 and 3 will be spare capacity/redundant 
for trunk 1). CLI is crucial here as I need to forward the CLI of the numbers 
from the blocks of numbers from the SS7 gateway, not the CLI of the originating 
caller.

The Asterisk is behind a firewall with NAT setup. The traffic is one way only. 
Calls going to the switch goes to Asterisk, Asterisk accepts the call, looks at 
the CLI from the line (not the caller), routs the call to its assigned outside 
number through the primary trunk. If primary trunk is unavailable, trixbox will 
then rout the call to the spare trunks on the list.

Hope anyone who has setup this before could give me some good tips on how to 
set this up.

Geoffrey

Sounds like the Toyota bug has migrated to Asterisk... it's mutated into
runaway ringing :-)

-Jeff

Sorry for my attempt at levity; just couldn't help it plus I'm sure
Digium guys will know how to resolve.


 We're having an issue that isn't easily googleable so I thought I
might might try here.

 We have several customers who want all their extensions to ring on
incoming calls.   Frankly I think it is craziness
 to ring 11 extensions all at once but that is how they want it.

 We're doing this by creating an incoming route that goes to a hunt
list containing all the extensions.

 This normally works fine but occasionally when someone picks up the
call other phones don't seem to realize the call
 has been answered and will continue to ring.   On at least once
occasion I saw a call that went to voicemail and all
 the phones continued to ring.   When this happens the phones will
continue to ring forever.   The only way to stop
 them from ringing is to pickup the handset at which time they realize
there is no call and reset.

 I'm pretty sure the underlying cause of this problem is funkiness in
their network but it just seems to happen too
 easily and then once it stops it won't stop.Even if this is caused
by network issues is there anything I can do to
 mitigate the problem.   Just seems wrong that the phones would
continue to ring forever.

Business SIP trunk/g711 ?

 

Verizon Business indicates they don't support it, and I have 2 recent
customers that it doesn't work for, and 1 current large customer telling
me he's going to make it work grin.

 

The issues is the latency/jitter on fax/g711 over Verizon Business seems
to spit out only 11 pages of a 15 page fax.

 

Anyone having faxing over PSTN SIP over G711 that is working? Any
advice?

Lol , simply lol, don't forget the super duper, top secret patch

PS. don't tell anyone i said this .

 

But yeah , since you need to blast 500 calls+, you should be aware that
normal blasting even 4 seconds audio will run you quite a bit of money,

 

20 seconds * 400 channels = 8000 seconds every 20 seconds, +- prep
times...

Or 

133 minutes every 20 secs...

399 minutes every minute.. @ 0.015 let's say 

 

400 * 0.015 is 6$ a minute, $360 an hour, 3600$ a day, and ill let you
do the weekly fees

 

Now, that's starting to be expensive for a pet project ;) if not and gov

convict me of mistrust, but who would have paid for such a
thing.  TV ads,
radio spots, billboards, etc., are much more effective for
public
information.  Unsolicited calls on that order mean only one
thing to me -
SPAM.  So what wonderful product were you informing the public
about
with regard to the looming threat of illness?

 

Jeff, indeed i was posting for posterity. Maybe someone will benefit in
an outbound-only scenario that he/she will not need a supercomputer to
pump a 20sec audio clip.

Again, this was a public service. And indeed TV and radio was used.
Unless you live in a bubble, you may have heard about AH1N1 virus. Which
unfortunately hit us (Panama, Republic of Panama, Central America)
very hard. I foud very repetitive to tell in my posts that i am from
panama, central america, blah,blah blah.

 

Anyways, a quick google search of this forum will also revealed that i
am kind of a regular poster and even my cellphone is listed here (Jon
Pounder, my cellphone is +507 6675 5083 in case YOU want to sell me a
car loan, i dont mind getting a call. Im a IT consultant and i have a
chargeback line. Please call me as many times as you want...please do so
between 10pm and 6am where my chargeback is the most expensive).

 

Guys, Grow up!

 

Next time someone needs to learn mouth-to-mouth and CPR lessons, please
DONT teach him. Because, following your inmature way of thinking, the
person who wants to learn CPR may as well be looking for information to
learn how to suffocate people.

Next time your son wants to know how gasoline works or how is being
produced. Please keep your familiy in ignorance. You may be training the
next crazy person who will burn things all around the world.

 

But, you wont do that, do you?

 

Again, I always tell my familiy that keeping others in ignorance is bad.
but sometimes it must be done for the sake of a greater good, and my
comment is always followed with good and sound examples (atomic
technology, viruses, etc).

 

But I forgot that Asterisk, the phone lines and a calling system is the
way the world is going to be dominated by the martians. So the secret
about phone system calculations must be keept in Area 51.

 

Now I understand Kevin Mitnick.

 

Cheers to all. Bye.

What is to stop anyone from dialing international at any time,
regardless if he bridges someone else on?

Usually we implement Force Authorization Codes (When dialing out after
dialing you have to enter a code) to track all Long
Distance/International calls. You can then generate bill back reports to
departments by code. Some software (ISI InforTel) can trigger an email
alert if someone spends more than $100USD in a day based upon CDR
records, etc.

Subject: [asterisk-users] Limit transfers

I have asterisk installed in a callcenter: 60 DAHDI external lines and
72 SIP extensions, and have a BIG PROBLEM.

Image a friend of one of the agents wants to call abroad paying the
local fee. He dials to the callcenter, uses DID to get to his friend,
asks him to place the call on hold and dial abroad and then hangup to
bridge the call!!!

I discovered this by chance when one of the agents, after answering an
external call, tryed to hangup and place a new call. He really pressed
the hook for a few milliseconds and was interpreted as a flash. After
finishing the call he hanged, bridging the first call with the second.

I cannot disable call forwarding, as the agents need it under certain
circumstances. What I need to do is disable bridging two external
lines.
Has anybody faced this problem?

Thanks,


  Daniel

This technically isn't SIP encryption. It encrypts the RTP streams.
Though this is probably what you're really after.

This still won't e.g. encrypt the dialed number.

Hi to all
in a scenario where:

- the bandwith is shared with other traffic (HTTP,VPN,ecc)
- the PBX is on a remote VPN peer
- due to many reasons Qos is not usable

There is a IAX trunk between 2 Asterisk 1.4 i've tried different
codecs (ulaw,alaw,gsm) but the main problem still remain the same: too
many voice packet get lost.

The main problem is surely on the network, but the strange thing is
that on the same network there is an H323 trunk from an Alcatel and a
Cisco CCM (using g711 codec) and in that case the voice isn't so bad!

i've tried to enable jitterbuffer but i can't notice some difference.

Is there something else that i can do?

Thanks to all

that is half duplex. (OK some support a couple of minor half duplex
modes).  All state of the art modem protocols send and receive
simultaneously using the full 300 - 3000 Hz bandwidth in both directions
with adaptive equalization and echo cancellation to make it work, which
is pretty much what a voice circuit need.  There are two differences:
1) The response and quality of a current modem must be considerably
higher than what is needed for voice use or it would never achieve the
throughput expected of it, and 2) the adaptive equalization algorithm is
designed around modem specific techniques.  The latter is (especially
for a softmodem) a software issue, not a hardware limitation.

 

Only a fraction of the hardware available is actually capable of full
duplex audio.

 

Absolutely not the case.  Particularly the softmodems (the most
inexpensive) contain little else than what is required for placing and
answering full duplex audio calls.  Everything else is in the driver.
The OP is 100% correct, that they would be an excellent candidate for
FXO use in low volume applications.

 

 

What it really comes down to is a value proposition:  

 

Quite true.  This is the real issue.  As mentioned, these drivers
require considerable skill and knowledge to write.  While there is no
doubt that the result would be very cost effective, the business model
is lacking.  The modem manufacturer is going to see the potential market
for this as somewhere down in the noise compared to their normal modem
sales, so isn't inclined to invest.  A third party developer with the
skills would have a difficult time recouping development costs (let
alone any profit) because they don't control the hardware, and therefore
have no leverage.  A user with enough volume to justify paying for the
development (or doing it if they had the skill) probably has enough
volume to use T1s instead.  If everyone that could benefit from using a
modem card were to pitch in $10 towards the development, it would
probably be quite possible.  But how to make that happen?

Nextel does that, pickups up after x rings and says 'The Nextel subscriber you

I'm not sure what Verizon or Nextel called this feature or what advantage is 
it for the carrier to play it versus just letting it ring forever...
 
In general I've had similar issues, customers want voicemail and single number 
reach delivers the call to the device that answers, be it a home answering 
machine, cell phone voicemail, etc.  I haven't had a customer keep single 
number reach as one call in can burn 4 or more channels out to each device.

Hi,

I'm having a problem with Verizon Wireless,
I'm hoping someone here knows the right way
to phrase the trouble report so it gets to someone
at Verizon who can solve the problem.

We have DIDs that simultaneously ring on
voip lines, and Cell numbers.

Verizon voicemail is turned off.

Every thing works the way it's supposed to,
UNLESS one of the cellphones is turned off,
or in a remote location where it is too far away
from a cell tower.  Verizon searches their network
and if they cannot find the cell phone, they pick
up the call and generate a voice error message.

Or if the cell lines are busy they generate busy
signal.

I need to know the right incantation to use with
Verizon to get them to just let the cell lines
ring until either some picks up a voip line,
or the voip voicemail picks up the call.

Re: [asterisk-users] Problem with Verizon Wireless

2009-03-16 Thread Jason Aarons (US)
Is the feature you are implementing Single Number Reach? 

They dial a number and you call another number (Verizon Cell Phone) trying to 
connect them to the user? But the problem is Verizon answers with the silly out 
of reach message?  I've never seen where the PSTN carrier lets you re-direct 
the call to the cell phone without your Single Number Reach PBX 
holding/hairpinning the call. I'm more old school PBX than SIP expert and 
suspect this can be done in the SIP cloud. I suspect services like Vonage Ring 
Lists don't hairpin calls!

4 channels?  Could you count them for me please?

I'm just getting started and working my way up from the simplest configurations.
I may not have the jargon right right.

I was expecting that I could eventually configure things so that I
could hand off
the calls so that once the Asterisk box got a connection between the
DID provider
originating the call and whatever/whoever is terminating the call (SIP
device, or SIP
service provider) the Asterisk box could then drop out of the connection and let
the originator talk directly to the terminator.

Is this an unrealistic assumption.

Ah,  I see one disconnect.  I think you are assuming T1 or better connections to
the PSTN where you are originating  and terminating the calls yourself
and I'm using
SIP service providers to do all the origination and termination.

I'm connecting a bunch of home offices scattered around the country and do not
have enough lines in any city to justify originating or terminating my own PSTN
calls.

Maybe just one PSTN line per DSL connection to avoid paying a sip provider to
terminate some local calls, and supporting some backup functionality, if the
Asterix box has crashed, but it will be a while before things get that
complicated.

Since it's not clear from this thread of conversation, do you need 100 
unique DIDs?  If you do:

That NPA is owned by Pacbell with the central office:  SCRMCA12

I don't know if anyone but Pacbell will have numbers in that NPA.

Since I use them and am happy with the service, you can try
contacting http://www.jnctn.com and ask if they can get numbers
there.  I do see they have others in the Sacramento area, in fact I
have a Sacramento number with them already.


If you don't and you just need outbound channels you can buy one (or 
more) DIDs and then use that as the caller-id setting for all the 
outbound calls.  This is perfectly legal since you own the DID that you 
are using as the caller-id.  The channels you are using for outbound 
calling don't have a DID associated with them so you need to associate 
it with one by setting the caller-id to an owned/valid DID.  They don't 
have to be unique.

What is illegal is to set caller-id to a fraudulent value such that the 
person on the other end will not be able to correctly identify the 
originator of the call.

That's funny. The way I have it phrased, when I called I started talking
to it as well! I have some code for short list voice recognition and
thought about detecting yes and no in there, but I ran out of time...and
the prompts were already recorded.

Thank you everyone for helping test the module. There have been 200+
calls from users on the list and they are still coming in. We're getting
about 65%-70% success rate. My target is 80%-85% in random sampling and
90%-95% in controlled settings.

Update: I'm adjusting the detection ratios tomorrow, so that should
improve general detection results based on the received data. I'm
implementing filters to remove the background noise. I'd guess that 5%
of those testing are trying to fool the system for fun, in one way or
another. When the user is unaware of sampling, the results are slightly
higher. My greeting suggests a less masculine phrase, but with a male
voice. I suspect this throws off both genders' recordings. I probably
should have had testers say their own names, since testers rarely divert
on that.

In Florida some new subdivision developers have sold the
phone/cable/internet rights to a provider. They run fiber to each house
and then have the uplink to provider which isn't a traditional telco.
You can't get another provider as satellite dishes are limited in
covenants and restrictions (CCR). I guess you could get GSM or CDMA
service from cell provider or WiMax/LTE.  It provides an upfront funding
to developer for sewer/water costs.  I'd be curios what battery life
they have.

 

I know the FCC mandated cell towers have more battery life after
Hurricane Katrina wiped out communications in New Orleans for months.

make sure the message can get out as many ways as possible,

Cable/DSLAM etc only have about 4 hours of battery power.
The CO
has a entire battery room which will last a whole lot
longer. Not
to mention that it may stay up longer than your VoIP
network. You
also have to take into account everything between you the
CO or
cable company. If just ONE thing fails you loose voip.
Copper is a
lot more forgiving  has failover modes versus the phone
co's ATM
network or the cable companies network (or lack there of)

I don't know if thats really true any more, all the new areas around 
here have satellite CO's where fibre comes out to a box on the street 
with some batteries etc and copper runs out from there - great for dsl 
since its close, but at the mercy of whatever batteries are in there.
  

The dial tone for the phone line still comes from the CO. The phone
companies loop there copper cable in and out of the remote cabinets. 



 
maybe your alarm needs to report in since there is a fire in your phone 
equipment - what then ?
 
I have seen every type of media go down or have problems no matter how 
stable - the only answer is have more than one so you always have a 
backup. Poles get hit, cables get cut, equipment breaks, its just a fact

of life.
  

This is true, that is why most fire panels have to have 2 phone lines.

I have several discontinued Sierra Wireless MP775 mobile GSM/EDGE radio
modems. These devices were originally installed in emergency vehicles to
provide data and voice access along with GPS reporting. They have
external RF connections for GSM/EDGE and GPS signals. The baseband side
includes four wire audio, RS-232 serial, USB and some parallel digital
I/O for panic switches etc. GSM voice connections are established by
sending AT commands via the RS-232 serial or USB ports and utilizing a
handset connected to the four-wire audio jack. Here is a link to the
Sierra Wireless web pages for the MP775.

My interest comes in finding an inexpensive way to connect an Asterisk
PBX or similar system to the PSTN via GSM when POTS and Internet service
isn't available or is too costly to connect. In my case, I'm considering
building a house at the end of a long unpopulated stretch of dead end
road and the cost of trenching and cabling from the nearest telco POP is
prohibitive.

 

I would like to find a way to connect these modems to my network so they
appear as a SIP FXS device. This would require a device
generating/reading AT commands and passing baseband audio on the front
end and SIP emulation on the backend. I'm sure there must be a way to do
this with a pc but to minimize power consumption; I would prefer to use
something like a small single board computer with a Geode processor. The
latter, having multiple RS-232 and audio ports, ought to be capable of
handling at least two of the MP775's.

 

Has anyone seen any hardware, software or combination that would allow
me to accomplish such an interface?

 

Regards,

George

Re: [asterisk-users] Large Asterisk installations (~10, 000 extensions), preferably at universities

2008-11-21 Thread Jason Aarons (US)
Just switching from Nortel to something else may not eliminate
hardware/software failures, or prevent those without experience from
pushing the enter key at the wrong time.  You have to consider the two
professionals actually cost considerably more than just salary, due to
taxes, 401k, benefits and after they gain knowledge of your Asterisk
will they go to a VAR to make big money?  It's a catch-22.

 

I would start with a small pilot of anything (Nortel VoIP, Cisco VoIP,
Asterisk) and use it to build your knowledge/experience and then make an
informed decision versus a rush decision based upon how last week went
with the legacy equipment.  You might find you need to plan for PoE long
term, or have network issues, etc, etc.

Thanks to everyone who replies so far!

 

We have Nortel PBX'es with a support contract from one of the local VARs
(Nortel does not give direct support here). In the last two weeks we had
one of our exchanges down for three half days; one was after a failure,
and the other two were when the technician came to fix remainders of the
original problem and just did a 5 seconds restart which won't even cut
calls. Yeh, the 5 seconds took 6-7 hours... BTW, they still do not
know what was the original problem.

 

So, why won't we save the big bucks we pay them, hire two professionals
(who cost less) and support an open source code by ourselves? This way
we depend on ourselves only.

 

 Thanks, __Yehavi:

Hello very interesting project you have, however asterisk is not
a registry server, i suggest that you use opensips/opense/kamalio for
your registrar, from where you dispatch to you asterisk servers, inside
a good environment with a controlled network and nice tagged voip flow
you could acheve a good results.

A lot of places you still can't get GSM in the US.it has
improved...but GSM 3G coverage is lacking compared to EVDO/CDMA.

Another option is a World Phone that can do all bands.

My story;

Visiting American lands in Kuala Lumpur and checks phone for messages...

Puzzled look appears as it worked at Home, Canada, Mexico, Caribbean...

You start to explain about GSM and their eyes open wide as they realize
they need a unlocked GSM phone from a electronics shop and SIM chip from
some company named Digi sold in 7-Eleven and some scratch off cards for
refills using SMS.

In reality my roaming fees for Intl are too high, I'll get a pre-paid
in-country phone before I get phone bill for Intl roaming. My data
connection syncs email all day long.

Re: [asterisk-users] issue with high latency

2008-07-22 Thread Jason Aarons (US)
Jitter is what your describing, it's a bad thing.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jitter

While VoIP may work (third party  128ms echo cancellers, etc) most
support organization won't go outside ITU-T G.114 recommendations.

I've done Cisco 7940 phones deployed in the Gulf of Mexico on a oil
platform using Callmanager based in US in 2003. The company controlled
the satellite and prioritized voice, ping was 600ms. Worked well except
the local calls were to Venezula which was too expensive per minute from
US.  Two phones ran up more than $1000US in 30 days.

Not true.
Voip is done over satellite every day and those ping times are at least
540
and upwards of in the 700's depending on the technology used.
The key here is keeping the latency stable.
If the packet flow fluctuates too much in latency this is when a problem
arises.

Re: [asterisk-users] Cisco vs Asterisk

2008-07-22 Thread Jason Aarons (US)
I haven't used Asterisk Voicemail but here are Unity Unified Messaging (for 
Exchange) 5.x/7.x features, in short I think you need to be a 
Callmanager/Exchange Server shop with heavy integration with ActiveSync/Direct 
Push/Outlook 2007/OCS2007. The company that created Unity (Active Voice) was a 
bunch of ex-microsoft guys. If you are not a enterprise/campus or prefer 
IMAP/SMTP then I don't think you would see any benefits or ROI. I don't think 
just hanging Unity Voicemail Only off a Asterisk box would be of much value.
 
I like AVST CallXpress  http://www.avst.com/products/callxpressMessaging/ for 
smaller customers.

Unity Unified Messaging (for Exchange) 5.x/7.x
 Using Exchange Administrator it reads/writes directly to Exchange Message 
Store (not IMAP or SMTP)
 Phone View (listen to message as callers leave them, control message on Cisco 
79xx phone LCD screen)
 Windows Mobile/Blackberry intergration (has Blackberry plug-in)
 Single number for fax/T38
 Speech Connect (reply to voicemails via Speech to Text or have them read Text 
to Speech)
 Mailbox greetings based on Calendar Integration 
 Unity Digital Networking for multiple sites being able to send each other 
messages

There are flash videos and datasheets here;
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/voicesw/ps2237/index.html

Now I will go read the Wiki and see how Asterik handles Voicemail

Note there are several version of Unity (Unity Unified Messaging (with 
Echange), Unity Unified Messaging (with Domino), Unity Connection 2.x, Unity 
Unified Express). I choose the version with the most integration with Exchange 
to discuss here.

Re: [asterisk-users] MagicJack and Skype call quality

2008-07-12 Thread Jason Aarons (US)
My understanding is Skype's secret is using the iLBC codec, which Cisco
has also licensed for their 79X2 models as well.  I travel and lot and
in places where Yahoo Phone Out or MSN Phone or Cisco IP Communicator
will fail the Skype client will work.  The iLBC codec can really handle
packet loss.

Skype High Quality Video with the Logitech Orbit AF on both ends is
awesome. I got my family a set for Fathers day. Just amazing video
quality. Uses a On2 VP-7 codec that has much lower cpu and other
benefits over h.264.

 I don't know what Magic-jack does (I've never actually seen one), but
I 
 know the key thing about Skype that impresses people - its wideband 
 voice codec. A lot of people poo-poo the idea that wideband voice has

 value in a phone call. They are either close to deaf, or have never 
 tried it. Clarity is profoundly improved. Skype seems to use various 
 tricks to keep the packet flow smooth, but its wideband that makes it

 sound better than the PSTN.

 You might think a standard phone plugged into an adaptor, like a 
 Magic-jack, would be limited to narrow band voice, as that is all the

 phone was designed for. It turns out most phones only aggressively 
 filter at the low end of the band. They let a lot of energy above
4kHz 
 through, and they do generally sound better through a wideband codec.

 Many modern line interface chips are actually capable of running in a

 16k samples/second mode, even though most are programmed for 8k 
 samples/second. I think the ones on the TDM400P type cards can. Some 
 from Silicon Labs certainly can, and chips from Zarlink and others
can.
 

 The DAA in those cards can work in 16Hz. So they can send higher
quality
 samples to the telco. Provided Zaptel supports it. But then again, it
 will get lost as soon as it gets converted to digital at the telco,
 right?
   
I guess I wasn't clear. What I said was only useful for a SLIC to phone 
connection. It won't be of any benefit for a DAA to PSTN exchange 
connection, for the reason you state.
 Anyway, the ProSLIC chip does not seem to support it. 
   
Silicon Labs make a Wideband ProSLIC, Si 3216, which is, er, wideband. 
As I said before, Zarlink and other make them too.

Steve

We are in the process of preparing to move our Asterisk server to a

2) Asterisk is not detecting the far end hangup.  Through the Adtran  
it does, but direct digital it does not.  I bridged an incoming call  
to an analog phone and listened as I hung up the far end (cell-call).   
I hear a audible click, silence, and then after maybe a half second  
I hear dialtone.  I tried turning on hanguponpolarity switch, tried  
turning it off, tried turning callprogress on and off, still does not  
detect the hangup.  Am I missing something obvious in Asterisk (this  
is my first digital hookup)?  I read somewhere that Asterisk is  
already suppose to detect dialtone to know that the far-end hungup.   
Do I need to call my phone company and get details on exactly how they  
are triggering the hangup, though I would think with digital it just  
happens).

Google multitech CallFinder 100, has both FXO and FXS interface you can

Problem is you call out and don't get simulated ring back while the GSM

either do VoIP over VSAT or connect via T1/E1.

1) set the fax machine to disable Super G3 (33.3k), try to force it to
use G3 (14.4k).

2) set the fax machine to Disable ECM (Error Correction Mode)

3) If PSTN is T1 check span for errors, etc.

keep in mind that faxing over VoIP is extremely tricky at best, but if

 The answer is no it will not work in NA. Their reasoning being that

 the demand seems to be very low.

This is a real chicken-and-egg problem. More people would get BRI if
there were affordable hardware for it.

I would like to see them write a NAm driver for it. To get them to take
the chance, there have to be enough people willing to purchase the card
to make them consider it seriously.

The other option is a bounty or community support to get it done. The
hardware already exists.

The more people make noise about this, the better the chances of that
happening.

RE: [asterisk-users] Asterisk to Cisco's Rescue...again...AuthenticateLD Calls

2007-02-21 Thread Jason Aarons \(US\)
Glad to hear you had a workaround.
 
I would suggest re-queing your TAC case, perhaps you got a outsourced or less 
experienced engineer at Cisco. Their support has varied depending on which 
city/group you get. Some have more experience then others.
 
While your 2600 from 2001 timeframe it should work, you can't run any of  12.4T 
images over the last 3 years without maxing the DRAM/Flash.
 
I've got 1200+ Forced Authorization Codes with 4.1(3)SR1 using 
2811ISRs/VWIC2-1MFT-T1s running 12.4T with both  MGCP and H323 gateways across 
20 sites with no issues. Could be the old 2600s IOS as you mentioned.

Subject: [asterisk-users] Asterisk to Cisco's Rescue...again...AuthenticateLD 
Calls



Hi All,

 

Just wanted to share a story:

 

We turned up a new customer yesterday evening, typical situation, Cisco 2600 
Router with T1 PRI card pointed to the customer's analog PBX with 2 data T1's 
linked back to our network.  The router PRI was configured as a gateway on our 
CCM 4, like we've done numerous times in the past.  The customer needed LD 
Authorization codes enabled, got the list 400+, and configured them in the CCM, 
no problem.  We started passing calls, local was fine but the LD would not 
work, turned the LD codes off and LD would work.  After engaging Cisco TAC, was 
informed that LD coded do not work with this type of gateway device.

 

After strapping on my Asterisk-Orange Super-Engineer Cape and Goggles, I told 
my Cisco Guy to prepend all the LD traffic with a 3 digit code and send it to 
one of my Cluster Asterisk Servers.  I put in a pattern for matching just this 
customers LD traffic as so:

 

exten = _5551NXXNXX,1,Answer

exten = _5551NXXNXX,2,Set(CDR(userfield)=Company LD)   

exten = _5551NXXNXX,3,Authenticate(/etc/asterisk/companyld.codes|a)

exten = _5551NXXNXX,4,Goto(ccmtrunkld|${EXTEN:3}|1)

 

;Answer because the authenticate cmd sends audio back to the caller

;set the CDR userfield to the company name

;Authenticate with file where the LD codes are stored, 'a' option puts the LD 
code in the CDR accountcode field

;strip the 555 off and pass the LD call outbound

 

So now all the LD traffic from this customer can be authenticated from the 
codes in the file companyld.codes, the CDR is updated properly for parsing the 
LD and generates a nice monthly report for tracking who is using LD for this 
customer.

 

I guess I'm feeling grateful that the Cisco Gateway is passing calls in the 
first place, but it would have been nice for the Cisco CM and the Cisco Gateway 
to play nice together.

 

The real hero here is Asterisk, Digium, and the Community that supports it!

 

Thank you All

 

JR

[asterisk-users] RFC2833 SIP trunks and DTMF

2007-02-09 Thread Jason Aarons \(US\)
I have a telco providing DTMF inband, they say they can't provide it any
other way. This is creating headaches for me.

 

What is the common method for SIP DTMF? Kpml, or 2833 or inband?

 

My handsets don't support inband so I'm tying up some expensive
resources to convert the inband  DTMF to out-of-band DTMF...

 

Can you recommend a vendor in US that provides SIP with DTMF in RFC
2833?

Based on these,
XO Communications one of the largest US DID Provider, now offer SIP
Orignation Services for wholesale.
Verizon Communications One of the largest US Teleco, now offer SIP

That means no need for PRI card.
So if I take service from them, then my asterisk server will be SIP

How can I set up my asterisk servers so that the calls originated by
XO/Verizon goes to different asterisk servers based on load.

Has any one does this and can share that with me. Any idea or hint will
