[asterisk-users] Asterisk and Hardware Requirements
Hello, I would like to put 1 asterisk box in Country A and 1 asterisk box in Country B. Let's assume : - Asterisk box in country A = GWA - Asterisk box in country B = GWB - Calling party number (located in country A) = CgPNA - Called party number (located in country B) = CdPNB - Second Called party number (located in country B) = sCdPNB - PSTN in country A = PSTNA - PSTN in country B = PSTNB The idea is: The end user in country B will have 2 phone numbers : CdPNB and sCdPNB CgPNA is dialling CdPNB through PSTNA. The call will be intercepted by GWA. GWA will process the call, will change the CdPNB to sCdPNB and direct it via IP to GWB. If the quality of the call via IP is not really good, then I want to redirect it through E1 lines via KPN which will be able to route the call to GWB. GWB will then transmit the call through the PSTNB and will reach sCdPNB. First Scenario -- GWA's requirements would be: - 1 E1 port receiving the calls through PSTNA - 1 E1 port connected to KPN to re-route the calls - Asterisk? being able to map ~5000 CdPNB to sCdPNB - Handling up to ~50 simultaneous calls - Using G711, G.723.1 & G.729.a codec - H323 and SIP compliant GWB's requirements would be: - 1 E1 port receiving the calls routed through KPN from GWA - 5 E1 port connected to PSTNB - Handling up to ~150 simultaneous calls - Using G711, G.723.1 & G.729.a codec - H323 and SIP compliant - Asterisk managing the whole thing Second Scenario --- GWA's requirements would be: - 5 E1 port receiving the calls through PSTNA - 10 E1 port connected to KPN to re-route the calls - Asterisk? being able to map ~5 CdPNB to sCdPNB - Handling up to 500 simultaneous calls - Using G711, G.723.1 & G.729.a codec - H323 and SIP compliant GWB's requirements would be: - 10 E1 port receiving the calls routed through KPN from GWA - 50 E1 port connected to PSTNB - Handling up to ~1500 simultaneous calls - Using G711, G.723.1 & G.729.a codec - H323 and SIP compliant - Asterisk managing the whole thing I was wondering whether Asterisk could handle each scenario and what kind of hardware I would need to support each scenario. I hope I've been clear enough in my explanations. Looking forward for your comments/inputs.

[Asterisk-Users] Incoming calls
Hi, I run an asterisk server. The configuration is very basic. Here is my question : When someone calls my phone line, which is connected to an FXO card, asterisk is answering using the context : ; Incoming calls goes to this default context : [incoming-rtc] include => postes-sip ; exten => s,1,Goto(menu,1) exten => s,2,Hangup ; exten => menu,1,SetVar(count=0) exten => menu,2,Answer exten => menu,3,Background(silence/1) exten => menu,4,Background(josh/welcome-msg) exten => menu,5,Background(silence/5) exten => menu,6,SetVar(count=$[${count} + 1]) exten => menu,7,GotoIf($[${count} < 1]?4) ; Repeat 3 times exten => menu,8,Goto(s,2) When a friend calls, I would like for him to enter a 4 digit password in order to access to a sub-menu, if no password is entered, then the welcome msg is said ... Any hints on how to do that ??

[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk and embedded system
Hi all, I'm kinda new with asterisk stuff. I'm running a Debian with asterisk and a digium X101P clone card in country #1. Since I'm going to work in another country (country #2), I would like to setup another Asterisk server + 1 FXO device in #2 as well as in #1. However I'm looking for a small solution. By "small", I mean I don't wanna have a big desktop running 24/7 ... just an small box like a WRT54GS + ATA Ethernet FXO for ex ... I've read some howtos from http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+embedded+systems but I'm still wondering what kind of hardware to choose. The network I would like to setup is basic, something like : X101P + asterisk (#1)asterisk + FXO (#2) Person in #1 will call the line connected to the X101P, then choose via a menu to call me. The call is transferred via IAX between the 2 asterisk boxes, then in #2, asterisk will dial the number via FXO With your experiences, which hardware/system (that can be reliable) do you recommend ? i was thinking of a WRT54GS + a GrandStream Handytone 488 (http://voipstore.atacomm.com/Shops/ViewItem.aspx/27934028032-43151799552.htm), what do you think about this ?

[asterisk-users] Is this doable?
I am trying to configure Asterick, having the following system setup on the Asterick server: * eth0 faces the external Internet interface, *but* it does not have IP address (it has a private one given to it by my ISP's DHCP server); * eth1 faces my internal network (say 10.1.1.0/24); * tun0 serves all mobile smartphones and connects to the internal network (it has a different ip range, say 10.1.2.0/24) - they are all connected via the Internet using OpenVPN; I would like to configure Asterick for internal calls between ourselves (eth1<->tun0) and I think I have no problem with configuring this part. I would also like to use one external VOIP provider to which Asterick registers on startup. I think I know how to do that and use the "register" option in sip.conf, though I am not sure for the rest of the NAT-related entries (see below). The purpose of registering this external account is so that both the smart phones (tun0) and the internal net (eth1) users could use this account to make external calls (starting with "0", i.e "_0[0-9]." pattern in extensioins.conf). Obviously, I need these calls to be routed properly via the external VOIP account. In addition to that, I would also need to receive calls from that external account to a nominated internal one (say on extension 20). Is this achievable? If so, I am not completely clear on whether I need to explicitly specify my public IP address (via externip/externhost) or whether Asterick is able to find it without this option? If not, then my plan is to use external program to find it and then use a script in Asterick to set it up as an environment variable. Would that work? That external IP address is going to change, but only in rare circumstances and in such cases I have to restart a lot of stuff (including Asterick) on that server (this is usually triggered by a monitoring program), so it won't be a problem once it is setup initially. I am also not sure whether to specify "nat=yes" or just have "nat=route" only - any ideas? Is there a comprehensive list of all the options available in sip.conf and what they do, because I was unable to find such a list? If the above is doable, I would also like to add the following 2 features: 1. Secondary external VOIP account, though I have no idea how to specify its port in "register" (it uses port 5065 instead of the standard 5060). That account would need to be used on a separate interface (eth2) with a different public IP address. Would it be possible to use externip/externhost inside that external account section to specify it? If this is not possible, then I am thinking of running a separate instance of Asterick with the second VOIP account/public IP address set up - would that work? 2. I would like to be able to configure the following work flow: for a specific set of (external) calling numbers (including where no Caller ID is available): a) these callers to be prompted to specify the "reason" for their call; b) their response to be temporarily "recorded"/stored (a short message of, say no more than 10 seconds long or when they press '#' for that recording to stop); c) Asterick then rings the nominated number for external VOIP calls (extension 20) and play that recorded message back; d) then asks for one of four possible outcomes: - accept this call (pressing, say 1) in which case the call is connected as normal; - reject it with a message that that number/person is "unavailable" (say, by pressing 0); - ask the caller to leave a message by transferring them to a voicemail (say by pressing 2); or - end the initial call completely with a message that the caller/number has been "blacklisted" (say, by pressing the 9 key); Could this be achieved? One final question about binding: in order to be able to use both tun0 and eth1 interfaces so that Asterick serves the calls from both eth1 and tun0, do I have to use "bind 0.0.0.0"? Is there an alternative, like specifying "bind 10.1.1.1" for eth1 and then "bind 10.1.2.1" for the tun0 interface - is this possible?

Re: [asterisk-users] Is this doable?
I think you might want to split your questions first. I thought that instead of creating a dozen different threads (and clogging the ML in the process) it would be better to put everything into one place - just pick the issue (or issues) you could address and leave (i.e. delete) the rest out. 1. You can't have multiple externip, but it's not necessary to run two Asterisk instances, because you can set routes to different destinations via particular interfaces. I have no problems with the routing - that is already done. I am not certain how Asterisk handles a stream running across multiple interfaces and how the packet NAT is done. I am also aware that SIP packets "embed" the IP address in it so not sure how this is handled either. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Is this doable?
I can't see any reason it shouldn't be. At this stage, after reading for the past couple of days, my two main concerns are NAT handling of SIP as both the Asterisk & my clients will be behind a firewall on a private net, and multitasking - the latter *may* be solved by going with AGI (not sure yet as Asterisk is still completely new to me). I figured out most of the things which had me worried initially, including how to get multiple "register" entries for external providers using (non-standard) ports (in v10.0 there is a provision for this in sip.conf). If so, I am not completely clear on whether I need to explicitly specify my public IP address (via externip/externhost) or whether Asterick is able to find it without this option? As I understand it, that depends on your router. If you have a Linux router with the ip_nat_sip module, it'll "fix" your SIP packets so that you don't need to use the externip setting. However, you'll need to test to verify that. Nope! My eth0 interface is not facing the public Internet directly - it takes its IP address from my ISP's DHCP (which is private!) even though it can forward/pass traffic through the public internet via that interface, that is the problem. Asterisk won't be able to figure out your external address on its own, so if your firewall isn't fixing packets, then you'd need to specify externip. I had a brief look at the sip.conf(.sample) for v10.0 and there is a provision for activating STUN (application/module) to figure out what my "real" public address is - if it works, then I may as well go using this, otherwise I will have to use a separate program to do that job. http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+variables According to the information here, you should be able to use ${ENV(externip)} to reference the value of an environment variable named "externip". Thanks, that was good, but this is better ;-) -> http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+Detailed+Variable+List http://www.asteriskguru.com/tutorials/sip_nat_oneway_or_no_audio_asterisk.html For a SIP trunk... no, I don't. The above link may be useful as it describes NAT issues with SIP. If you have to specify NAT options at all, start with "yes" and try "route" if that doesn't work. Very good find, thanks again! Is there a comprehensive list of all the options available in sip.conf and what they do, because I was unable to find such a list? http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+config+sip.conf I wish I knew. The link above seems fairly complete, but also terse. Top find again, thanks! It is a bit dated, but it certainly helps and I've got a few ideas of my own from this page. One final question about binding: in order to be able to use both tun0 and eth1 interfaces so that Asterick serves the calls from both eth1 and tun0, do I have to use "bind 0.0.0.0"? Is there an alternative, like specifying "bind 10.1.1.1" for eth1 and then "bind 10.1.2.1" for the tun0 interface - is this possible? Start with binding to 0.0.0.0. That was my initial intention as I was hoping Linux will map each request/response using the appropriate interface (i.e. on which interface it comes from), I realise binding on 0.0.0.0. is not ideal from a security point of view (I'd rather issue separate udpbind statements for the interfaces I want to use), but for now it have to do if there isn't an alternative.

Re: [asterisk-users] Is this doable?
and multitasking - the latter *may* be solved by going with AGI (not sure yet as Asterisk is still completely new to me). I don't really follow you. What I meant was that it may be necessary (at a later stage, once I get enough level of knowledge to be confident of doing something a bit more complex) to ask Asterisk to "multitask" - for example: I listed in one of my previous posts, that once the "essential" part (i.e. connectivity & security) is set up properly, my idea is to set up the proper logic for treating different call groups. One particular example of this, as I already pointed out in that earlier post, is I'd like to ask "anonymous" callers (i.e. callers without any caller IDs or callers placed in that group by myself/admin/other) to be asked by Asterisk what is the reason for their call before routing the call, then some sort of moh to be played while Asterisk - at the same time - rings a nominated number and plays what the callers just said (which should be recorded temporarily, obviously) and I would have 4 options - accept the call, in which case Asterisk transfers the caller to me, reject it with a "not available" message, reject it but allow the caller to leave a message, or reject the call returning a message to the caller that the number is blacklisted. This flow, I am almost certain, would require multitasking on the part of Asterisk - that is what I meant with my previous post. Nope! My eth0 interface is not facing the public Internet directly - it takes its IP address from my ISP's DHCP (which is private!) even though it can forward/pass traffic through the public internet via that interface, that is the problem. In this case, "your" router is the one that your ISP provided or is using, which performs NAT for your hosts. If it is Linux with ip_nat_sip, I believe that it'll "fix" packets without requiring you to configure your Asterisk host. I am not sure that is the case though - especially when I will be using "non-standard" sip port (5061 & 5065) - in my current configuration I use a STUN option on my existing client, but the connection is routed directly - no intermediaries at all, so don't know what Asterisk is going to do in such case, hence my concern. That was my initial intention as I was hoping Linux will map each request/response using the appropriate interface (i.e. on which interface it comes from), I realise binding on 0.0.0.0. is not ideal from a security point of view (I'd rather issue separate udpbind statements for the interfaces I want to use), but for now it have to do if there isn't an alternative. Linux *can* do that, but it requires a bit of configuration for route selection. All the routes are already configured - I have no problem with that bit (I use checkpoint as well as another - customised - module, which takes care of accounting & implements additional tracking). My only worry is from a security point of view - 0.0.0.0 binding is for all interfaces, which is not something I want, but can live with - for now. I am a bit baffled though - Asterisk has existed for quite a while now and I am not sure why this wasn't implemented sooner - everyone knows that using 0.0.0.0 is a security risk.

Re: [asterisk-users] Binding to 0.0.0.0 a security risk?
Why do you see binding to 0.0.0.0 to be a security risk? Purely because a response from Asterisk can be received as a result of a connection on *any* interface on the system/machine. If I have Asterisk confined to, say, 2 interfaces - eth0 (10.1.1.1) and eth1 (10.2.1.1) then a request over a third/subsequent interface cannot be served - it is not normally possible. When Asterisk binds to 0.0.0.0 that is not the case and request over a third/subsequent interface *can* be served by Asterisk (provided the routing is setup properly, that is). If you only have 1 interface, what's the difference? I don't as evident from my initial post. If you have 2 interfaces, just bind to one or the other. I don't - see above. If you have 3 or more interfaces (or you need to just bind to some subset), you should have the skills to configure 'iptables.' I do, but that is not the point - do you rely on microsoft for the security of your own desktop system (if you have one running windows that is) or do you take it into your own hands and make sure it is properly implemented? I don't know about you, but I am firmly in the latter category. Unfortunately, (IIRC) Asterisk does not reply to the same interface packets are received from which limits the usefulness of multiple interfaces. What do you mean by that? If a request is received over eht1 are you saying that Asterisk does not respond over the same interface?! -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Binding to 0.0.0.0 a security risk?
While usually thread hijacking is not something that should be done, in this case thank you for hijacking it as the OP on his original topic was way off topic. Why is that - I think I posted legitimate questions/queries with regards to the installation, configuration and running of Asterisk - how is that "off-topic"? Asterisk can quite nicely deal with NAT provided you set it up right. That said the answer to your question is it doable? yes it is. Next time do lots of hands on and you'll see for yourself. The reason I see this as off topic is because it was mainly routing questions you had which is linux and not asterisk. I disagree - my original questions were with regards to installing, setting up and using Asterisk in a multi-interface environment (NAT, as well as restricting Asterisk to which interface it needs to bind to is part of that process as far as I know). My questions are not how to do general NAT - I am perfectly capable of implementing that, having over 18 years experience with that sort of thing, thank you. My questions were more on how/whether Asterisk deals (or whether is capable of dealing) with NAT and all the other issues I raised in my initial post. One last thing though - drop the attitude - if you are not willing/capable of contributing anything to this thread just move along - there is nothing to see here. Everyone knows? Not me. From Steves post I understand that neither does he know. Do you mind explaining this? See my previous post. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Is this doable?
Your description sounds almost entirely like the existing call screening, so I'm pretty sure you'll be able to accomplish it. Start with call screening, and modify that to suit your needs. It is indeed. This is already implemented in Asterisk I take it then? If so, brilliant news! I'd encourage you not to give callers much information. If you tell callers that their number is blacklisted, or that the recipient is not available (and not offer them voicemail), they're likely to call back and provide different or no information. It'll be more effective to let them leave voicemail and then delete and ignore it. Just a suggestion. A good one, thanks for that - will take it on board. IP routing alone isn't actually sufficient (typically) to use multiple interfaces. Under Linux, you have to set up multiple routing tables, track connections, mangle reply packets (mark), and use 'ip rule' to select the proper routing table for the packet. If you haven't verified that replies go out the right interface, you should look. If you have, then ignore me. :) This is already done and works, though from my (admittedly limited) understanding of the sip protocol I know that internal IP address information is included in the actual packet. I know that I could use sip helpers (kernel modules), but just wanted to know whether I should rely on Asterisk to do this or whether I should do it via netfilter alone (in which case why are all the nat-related options present in Asterisk?). No... binding to 0.0.0.0 isn't a security risk. Typically applications bind to a specific address so that a single host can have multiple addresses, and an application or multiple applications can bind to specific addresses to implement virtual hosting. I disagree. Binding to 0.0.0.0 allows connections to be made from all interfaces (provided the routing allows it, of course) - see my previous post as I do not wish to repeat myself here. I do not wish to solely rely on iptables/netfilter/other means if I can constrain Asterisk to the interfaces it is supposed to be using. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Binding to 0.0.0.0 a security risk?
As far as I know, Asterisk would use the default Linux/Unix routing algorithms to send packets out, in which case yes: responses may not go out on the same interface packets were received on. E.g. if you receive packets with non-LAN IP addresses on eth0, while your default route is set to eth1, in the absence of custom routing Linux will send the responses over eth1. Thanks, another mystery solved then - Asterisk does rely on the Linux/Unix routing, in which case I would definitely need to take care of the SNAT/DNAT and proper routing/forwarding of packets between interfaces using core Linux/Unix tools.

Re: [asterisk-users] Is this doable?
It is indeed. This is already implemented in Asterisk I take it then? If so, brilliant news! More or less. I don't know if it's easy to trigger for specific caller ID values, or for none. You might need to to a little customization, but something mostly like what you describe is present. I am glad to see this! Which modules/functions present this functionality - do you know? I am almost certainly going to customise this as the screening of calls will be done using my own custom-defined criteria and the response options will also have to be customised/enhanced as well (how much really depends on what is currently implemented in Asterisk). Is there some kind of attack that you believe is possible on one interface that isn't on the other? I can't conceive of any way that making your service available on additional addresses increases your vulnerability. Of course it does - by making Asterisk service available on, say eth2 (by binding on 0.0.0.0 that is automatically enabled, i.e. Asterisk can receive packets coming from that interface). This is not what I want. If I could restrict Asterisk to bind only on the eth0 and eth1 for example, packets coming from that interface (eth2) won't affect Asterisk at all and they will either be dropped or rejected as nothing would listen on that address/port. I know that you may say "netfilter/iptables is there to protect you", but the system will be more secure if Asterisk don't have the (physical) ability to answer requests coming from "undesired" interfaces - regardless of whether I have a fully-functional netfilter/iptables in place (even if it is compromised), rather than having Asterisk potentially answering such requests (by binding to 0.0.0.0) even if netfilter/iptables are functioning. In other words, having physically restricted Asterisk from answering requests coming from undesired interfaces (short of directly forwarding/routing packets from/to that interface) is better than allowing it do so and relying solely on netfilter/iptables for protection. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Binding to 0.0.0.0 a security risk?
All of that is true, but none of it appears to be a security concern, specifically. For you, may be, but from where I am sitting, I don't want to rely solely on netfilter/iptables to protect me when I could physically restrict Asterisk from binding to that interface (and answering such requests) - that will serve me well in the event netfilter/iptables is somehow compromised (see my previous post). It's possible for an application to bind a socket to a specific interface, but very few do. Generally speaking, server applications bind a socket to an address. The kernel decides what interface that packets are sent on. Normally that will be the interface that has the lowest cost default route, not necessarily the one on which a connection was initiated. That is why I noted previously that you have to use connection tracking, packet mangling, and ip rules for multi-homed hosts. If you've never verified that your packets are being routed out the interface you expect (probably with tcpdump), perhaps you should. Yeah, that was already clarified by another poster - I assumed (wrongly, as it turned out) that Asterisk, somehow, could "automagically" take care of directing sip/voip packets between interfaces and also take care of all the other related issues. As I understand it now, I will have to reconfigure this myself by using the standard Linux/Unix tools (ip & iptables mostly).

Re: [asterisk-users] Is this doable?
http://www.asterisk.org/astdocs/node66.html Thanks, never knew that! Yes, I understand that it's not what you want, but that doesn't make it a security concern. If Asterisk is publicly available on one interface, making it available on another interface doesn't make you less secure. You lost me. What I want/don't want is largely irrelevant. The issue is, as you rightly pointed out, whether it is considered more secure or less secure when Asterisk binds to 0.0.0.0 as oppose to using a specific set of interfaces, selected at startup. If one has internal networks, accessible via, say eth1 and tun0, and implements Asterisk to act as the internal/private PBX (without exposing it to the outside world), then having been forced to use 0.0.0.0 will, of course, expose Asterisk to any other - undesirable - interfaces, including those pointing to the outside world. By having the option to specify which interfaces Asterisk should use to bind to (via multiple {udp,tcp}bind statements or by any other means) Asterisk is *not* exposed to any undesirable interfaces and thus, the risk is not there. I thought I have made that clear by now, obviously I haven't, it seems. It's fine if you want to take that step, but please drop the "everyone knows this is a security risk" thing. You appear to be alone in that opinion, and unable to explain why you think it's a security risk. Moreover, you're speaking for others without warrant or welcome. If you can't see why binding to 0.0.0.0 carries greater risk than restricting Asterisk which interfaces to use, then you are truly blind and beyond help, I am afraid. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

[Asterisk-Users] PBX / Asterisk integration
Hi all, I regret that I don't know much about telephony as I'm a networking bod, but here goes... We are thinking about implementing a VoIP service so that staff and students can make VoIP calls from home or using our wireless LAN on campus. Clearly, we would like it to integrate with our PBX so VoIP users can talk to the PSTN as well. We don't actually control the University's PBX, so it is highly desirable that any changes to the PBX are very minimal! We were thinking of setting up a single extension which is associated with a huntgroup on the PBX that somehow connects (via an E1?) to the Asterisk box. If a user leaves his office he sets his extension to re-direct calls to that extension number (or to re-direct on no-reply). The PBX would route the call to the asterisk huntgroup. Asterisk would "see" the original extension number called (assuming this is possible!!), and (knowing which extension maps to which user to which IP address) route the call to the user over the IP network. I can handle the IP stuff without any problems. My question is: is this a possible/sensible approach to implementing this type of service? If not, what's a better solution?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] 403 FORBIDDEN Help!
is the sip extension on the vocal sip server also 1234? if not, that could be why it's not working... when you're dialing sip, you have to use the format: exten => LOCEXT,1,Dial(SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:port) so it would be something like exten => 1234,1,Dial(SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:5060) where REMEXT is the sip extension you're trying to dial. pardon me with the context stuff, i just woke up recently, and didn't think to ask if the remote extension was the same. - Original Message - From: Bartosz Jozwiak To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 18, 2003 9:50 AM Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] 403 FORBIDDEN Help!

Re: [Asterisk-Users] MusicOnHold and MP3Player not triggering "answer"
Hello Mickey, I had a similar problem with the mp3 functions a while back, but I handled it off list, but since you're having the same issue, here's how I noted to fix it: 1. Make sure you have mpg123 in /usr/bin. Symbolic links will NOT work, and it has to be the REAL mpg123. 2. Make sure that the system has already passed the Answer call for the extension. For example: exten => 69,1,Wait(5) exten => 69,2,Answer exten => 69,3,MP3Player,/path/to/music.mp3 This example is the only way I found to make the mp3 player work. I haven't been able to test fully the music on hold functionality, as my system is'nt fully functional yet, and I don't have other clients to test with. -Josh - Original Message - From: "Mickey Binder" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Asterisk maillist (E-mail)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, September 03, 2003 11:13 AM Subject: [Asterisk-Users] MusicOnHold and MP3Player not triggering "answer" > Hi > > I have kind of an odd problem. > When dialing in from an outside line via a TE410P card it seems like > MusicOnHold and MP3Player doesn't work properly (for me anyway).

Re: [Asterisk-Users] MusicOnHold and MP3Player not triggering "answer"
Along the same lines, though, I do agree that MP3Player app should cause the system to trigger the answer without having to do it manually, but I could see where you might not want it to, as well. In theory, the Playback app (pardon, this is what i've gathered by toying with it) triggers the 'answer' function if the call is not already answered. Couldn't we get the MP3Player app to do the same? I'm not that skilled of a programmer, otherwise, I'd hack it up and do it myself. -Josh - Original Message - From: "Mickey Binder" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, September 04, 2003 4:34 AM Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] MusicOnHold and MP3Player not triggering "answer" > > -Original Message- > > From: Joseph Finley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sent: 3. september 2003 23:21 > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] MusicOnHold and MP3Player not triggering > > "answer" > > > > > > > > I used a symbolic link and it works just fine for me. > > > > -Joe > > > > > > -Original Message- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > > Josh Roberson > > Sent: Wednesday, September 03, 2003 4:30 PM > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] MusicOnHold and MP3Player not triggering > > "answer" > > > > > > Hello Mickey, > > > >I had a similar problem with the mp3 functions a while back, but I > > handled it off list, but since you're having the same issue, > > here's how I > > noted to fix it: > > > > 1.

[Asterisk-Users] Channelized T1 Question/Request
Using a channelized T1 here for our * box, we get ANI and DNIS information inband over DTMF, in the format *1234567890*222333*, where 1234567890 is the ANI and 222333 is the DNIS. Any hope for processing this effectively without resorting to AGI scripting?

It automatically registers with all asterisk servers that have been configured in the Options|Directory dialog. I dial out and register from two different servers. I previously had an "auto register" checkbox, but changed to registering all servers when I moved the servers list from a listcontrol to a combobox. I'm thinking that you would want to register with any server through which you may want to make outbound calls. When the servers are read from the registry, they are read in alphabetical order, and registration is attempted in that order. (The order may be different on other platforms). You should see "Registration accepted" in the status bar after the last server is registered. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free.

Basically what you need to do, unless you are installing zap devices, is uncomment the ztdummy line in the zaptel makefile, make install, and modprobe ztdummy. This will install a 'pseudo channel' driver for zap. (ie, emulating a zap device for applications needing zap interfaces).

Re: [Asterisk-Users] chan_sip and budgetone
Is there a way to checkout a two week old version of the cvs? Jon CVS has an incredably flexable date specification routine: -D date_spec Use the most recent revision no later than date_spec (a single argument, date description specifying a date in the past). A wide variety of date formats are supported, in particular ISO ("1972-09-24 20:05") or Internet ("24 Sep 1972 20:05"). The date_spec is interpreted as being in the local timezone, unless a specific timezone is specified. The specification is ``sticky'' when you use it to make a private copy of a source file; that is, when you get a working file using -D, cvs records the date you speci- fied, so that further updates in the same directory will use the same date (unless you explicitly over- ride it; see the description of the update command). -D is available with the checkout, diff, history, export, rdiff, rtag, and update commands. Examples of valid date specifications include: 1 month ago 2 hours ago 40 seconds ago last year last Monday yesterday a fortnight ago 3/31/92 10:00:07 PST January 23, 1987 10:05pm 22:00 GMT So there should be no problem with cvs update -D "2 weeks ago" ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [Asterisk-Users] PSTN intercepted announcement
Michael Ulitskiy wrote: Hi, I have asterisk functioning as SIP to H.323 gateway for local SIP endpoints and I have H.323 to PSTN gateway (Lucent MAX TNT) connecting my LAN VOIP to PSTN via PRI. Everything works fine with one exception. I seem to be unable to figure out why I cannot hear PSTN intercepted announcement ("number is not in service" etc.) when I'm calling a disconnected number through asterisk. AFAIK, A PRI is normally expected to signal number not in service conditions out of band, so * should be signalling the out of service condition in a manner appropriate for the channel type (as a recording, or as the most accurate protocol specific out of service response code available, casung the out of service condition to be indicated by the target equipment) With my SNOM phone, the PRI signals not in service or no route or whatever, then * relays that in the form of a SIP error response, then the SNOM phone executes an internal recording and shows the error on the display as well. This results in more reliable call handling all the way through, and some bandwidth savings. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

I'd look into ISDN, both PRI and BRI. If the costs are not too prohibitive, this would be the most flexable option. ISDN uses out of band signaling and has a number of features which complement a DID enviroment, such as DNIS (dialed number information service), where the number dialed is passed along with an incoming call. If your enviroment never uses all its outside lines at the same time, this can be cost effective, because you can have direct dial numbers for all the phones without a one to one correspondance of outside lines to extensions. PRI is usually too expensive, but sometimes BRI is affordable, however you should check on pricing for both to see if they may be cost effective. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Re: Grandstream Early Dial
I've never had early dial working, however, I resolved my multiple digit issue by simply putting both the GS phones and asterisk in INFO mode. This worked on both 10.0.3.81 firmware on the budgetone and the ATA286, as well as 10.0.4.30 firmware. I'm not saying I don't believe you, but doubelcheck your lines in asterisk to be dtmfmode=info and the gs devices are on SIP INFO method, and your DTMF Payload type is 101.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] New to asterisk? RUN... don't walk.
Well, since everyone else is top-quoting on this message, so will I :P I'm no veteran either. As a matter of fact, I have had ZERO prior knowledge to the telcom industry or more than 'user level' experience with telecommunications in general. I decided that I wanted to expand my knowledge, and actually LEARN a few things, so I jumped into asterisk. I was, and quite frankly, IMO, still AM a 'n00b' to *. However, after playing around, and learning what things do, by reading the documentation that IS there, searching the archives, and just trolling the list and IRC, I have learned more in the last 4-5 months of having * than a lot of people I've noticed have learned in a lifetime of experience.I now have a fully functional (well, minus MOH, because mpg123 isn't yet compiled on my new box), * implementation, serving myself and my roommates strictly over VoIP, and a couple ata's and a Internet PhoneJack card. I love it. And I'm STILL learning to this date. Asterisk is not something you can expect everyone to just drop what their doing and help you with. Sure, it can be frustrating, but if you are so dense that you can't sit down an play with it and learn what happens when you type something in the cli, or change a few things in your dialplan, then get out, I agree. If you liked taking apart mom's hairdryer as a kid and seeing how it worked, and then later on, rewired up a few things to do what you wanted them to, or even took a hex editor to command.com in msdos to change what it says to suit your taste (mucho guilty on that one.. lol), then you will have no problem finding out what you can and can't change simply by editing files, and trying things out.

Re: [asterisk-users] Requiring a login to a phone
For such a simple application I'd use AstDB to avoid having to hassle with an external database (and also means this sort of dialplan will work even on embedded/slimmed Asterisk boxes that may not have db modules loaded/available). In any case, what Tilghman said is what I'd suggest as well. http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+func+db http://www.the-asterisk-book.com/unstable/funktionen-db.html Also consider allowing emergency number dialing to bypass authentication, if applicable. -jr On Dec 1, 2007 5:32 PM, Tilghman Lesher <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Saturday 01 December 2007 18:09:27 Steve Johnson wrote: > > Hi List, > > > > We have a remote asterisk SIP phone at the cottage. > > > > I'd like it to have minimal privileges when it first registers with > > Asterisk.

[asterisk-users] phoniceq e400p driver for DAHDI
Hello everyone, We have an E400P Card from phoniceq. There is a DAHDI Driver posted at: http://e400p.phoniceq.com/driver/dahdi-tor2-tormenta3-e1.tgz but, it doesn't work. The author (martin (or marcin) pycko) says that it isn't finished. I've e-mailed martin, and he stated that he would fix the driver AFTER we order 10 more cards, not before. I have a difficult time ordering thousands of dollars worth of product BEFORE i see it working correctly. During my life, I've been promised a lot of things If anyone can fix the driver, I'll gladly pay a reasonable fee for the service. The hardware seems to work well, and it definately fits my budget, but i'm more comfortable paying a few dollars to get this done BEFORE i buy the cards. Cheap insurance. To replicate my setup, you would need to download dahdi-linux-complete-2.0.0.tar.gz , untar it, and then download the file above and copy the contents over the top of .../dahdi-linux-complete-2.0.0+2.0.0/linux/drivers/dahdi/tor2.c Below is the debug information I provided when I first contacted phoniceq. If anyone here thinks they can tackle this for me, Please get in touch via direct email and let me know how much you want to fix it up. Thanks Everyone, Josh --- When I insmod/modprobe tor2.c, however, I get a segmentation fault, and I can't use the driver, or even unload it. The only way to remove the driver is to reboot the machine. develop:/usr/src/tor2/dahdi-linux-complete-2.0.0+2.0.0/linux/drivers/dahdi # uname -a Linux develop 2.6.25.5-1.1-pae #1 SMP 2008-06-07 01:55:22 +0200 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux develop:/usr/src/tor2/dahdi-linux-complete-2.0.0+2.0.0/linux/drivers/dahdi # insmod tor2.ko Segmentation fault develop:/usr/src/tor2/dahdi-linux-complete-2.0.0+2.0.0/linux/drivers/dahdi # develop:/usr/src/tor2/dahdi-linux-complete-2.0.0+2.0.0/linux/drivers/dahdi # rmmod tor2 ERROR: Module tor2 is in use develop:/usr/src/tor2/dahdi-linux-complete-2.0.0+2.0.0/linux/drivers/dahdi # *NOTE*(tor2 is NOT in use)**NOTE* develop:/usr/src/tor2/dahdi-linux-complete-2.0.0+2.0.0/linux/drivers/dahdi # dahdi_cfg -vvv DAHDI Tools Version - 2.0.0 DAHDI Version: 2.0.0 Echo Canceller(s): Configuration == SPAN 1: CCS/HDB3 Build-out: 0 db (CSU)/0-133 feet (DSX-1) SPAN 2: CCS/HDB3 Build-out: 0 db (CSU)/0-133 feet (DSX-1) SPAN 3: CCS/HDB3 Build-out: 0 db (CSU)/0-133 feet (DSX-1) SPAN 4: CCS/HDB3 Build-out: 0 db (CSU)/0-133 feet (DSX-1) Channel map: Channel 01: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 01) Channel 02: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 02) Channel 03: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 03) Channel 04: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 04) Channel 05: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 05) Channel 06: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 06) Channel 07: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 07) Channel 08: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 08) Channel 09: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 09) Channel 10: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 10) Channel 11: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 11) Channel 12: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 12) Channel 13: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 13) Channel 14: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 14) Channel 15: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 15) Channel 16: D-channel (Default) (Slaves: 16) Channel 17: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 17) Channel 18: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 18) Channel 19: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 19) Channel 20: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 20) Channel 21: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 21) Channel 22: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 22) Channel 23: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 23) Channel 24: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 24) Channel 25: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 25) Channel 26: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 26) Channel 27: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 27) Channel 28: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 28) Channel 29: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 29) Channel 30: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 30) Channel 31: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 31) Channel 32: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 32) Channel 33: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 33) Channel 34: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 34) Channel 35: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 35) Channel 36: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 36) Channel 37: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 37) Channel 38: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 38) Channel 39: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 39) Channel 40: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 40) Channel 41: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 41) Channel 42: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 42) Channel 43: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 43) Channel 44: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 44) Channel 45: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 45) Channel 46: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 46) Channel 47: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 47) Channel 48: D-channel (Default) (Slaves: 48) Channel 49: Clear channel (Default) (Slaves: 49) Channel 50:
[asterisk-users] Override sip.conf settings in extensions.conf? Possible?
Hi all... Does anyone know if it is possible to override sip.conf settings in extensions.conf (for example: session-minse=90) without needing to create an overarching peer in sip.conf and selecting it specifically in the dial plan? I'm on the 1.4 stable code base and looking to implement session-timers on certain call flows in a modular dial plan.

I'm hesitant to migrate to 1.6 because some of the servers I want to make these changes on are production units. I think-- based on what you've suggested-- that the best action for me would be to clone my sip peer definitions in sip.conf and add the specific session-timers I need for origination in the peer. Then, I can just call the alternate peer with timers invoked. I've used this successfully in the past to create unknown and anonymous calls so I think this is the easiest course. I'm not opposed to hacking code but it seems redundant when chan_sip technically already has the functionality I need. At any rate, great answer! You did make the correct logical leap, by the way. It's nice to see an answer right from Digium on this question as well. We use your cards in our labs and production and find your hardware very useful.

It is possible-- barely-- but you have to be able to put up with two to six second lags between replies and lots of stepping on each other in conversations. The feasibility will also depend on the traffic shaping/filtering of the provider and whether they black hole VoIP ports/packets. There will be a lot of delay and echo which can be compounded by an imbalance in upstream and downstream bandwidth. If you're using dialup for upstream the bandwidth _will_ be an issue. If you're looking for point-to-point communication a client-to-client push-to-talk solution like Speak Freely [1] might be a better choice. You may also want to consider-- if you're trying to use Asterisk-- a narrowband codec such as Speex. [2] I used Speak Freely over 28.8 dialup links to have conversations between Florida and Ontario almost fifteen years ago. It's more like a two-way radio than a telephone but it works very well and is win/lin cross-platform.

[asterisk-users] Phone system "ping" checker
Does anyone know of an online tool or program that would call our phone numbers to confirm that they are up? What I'm imagining is something like pingdom.com (a ping checker for web services), except for the phone system. It would call us, confirm an answer, then hang up. If no answer, it would send an e-mail to our cell phones so we knew about it right away.

[asterisk-users] TellMe Voice Recognition in Asterisk working..
A couple of weekends ago I decided to see if I could get Asterisk to play nice with TellMe's VoiceXML studio. They provide the VoiceXML studio for free, and you can access it through SIP, so I thought this would be a fun and cheap way to integrate voice recognition into my IVR. I have posted a brief tutorial with code and examples on the voip-info.org wiki ( http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Add%20Voice%20Recognition%20to%20Asterisk ) as well as at my blog ( http://www.spinepunch.com ). The code is a little rough, and I'm sure there is a better way of doing what I did, but this was easy and it worked for me. What's next on my to-do list is trying to cover up the TellMe jingle before it starts the VoiceXML app. If anyone would like to help clean up the code, or has a better way of interacting with the Asterisk manager, please let me know.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] snom and "hint" priority
(boy mail in this list piles up fast when I can't check it) On Apr 8, 2005, at 10:03 AM, Michael George wrote: - It appears that the extension used with the "hint" must be the same as the extension used to dial that channel. So if extension 22 will ring Zap/2, then "exten => 22,hint,Zap/2" will work, but "exten => 222,hint,Zap/2" will not. Why is that? The extension is how asterisk maps SIP URLs to chunks of your dialplan -- if you program a button on a snom to "dest ", the phone will use that same URL for both dialing and subscribing to extension state. Unless you have a phone that lets you specify different URLs for dialing and subscribing to state, they have to match in asterisk. - If I am correct in the above, then there is no way for me to monitor a channel that is not an extension. As an example, I have a TDM400 with 3 FXS (Zap/1-3 on extensions 21-23) and 1 FXO (Zap/4) as well as a VoIP channel for dialing out. I can monitor the states of the extensions with extension entries like "exten => 21,hint,Zap/1" but I cannot monitor the state of the FXO with "exten => 0,hint,Zap/4" because 0 is not the extension of Zap/4. Indeed, Zap/4 has no extension. Is it not possible to monitor that line, then? There has to be a SIP URL for the phone to subscribe to -- if you put: exten => zap4,hint,Zap/4 in your extensions.conf (with no zap4,1,... entry) it wouldn't be dialable (although the phone would still try if you pushed it) but would have a valid SIP URL. -- Joshua P.

[Asterisk-Users] clarent hardware
Just wondering if anyone has had any luck with the Clarent CPGs ( uses MGCP ). I have a couple CPG 201s laying around that I am trying to get working but am having difficulties. They successfully register with the asterisk box, but when I lift the handset of the phone plugged into any of its ports, there is no dial tone, I hear no DTMF tones when I press keys, etc. But I can make the phone ring by using a soft phone, although when I lift the handset it just keeps ringing. Any help would be great, I did see a post I found with google about someone getting CPG 101s going well, but they never posted any config files or how they did it. I also can't find any good information about using MGCP with asterisk, any links, tips, help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance! ---- Josh Krueger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Urban Communications http://www.urbancom.net/
[Asterisk-Users] toll access - account code
Our telco has setup toll access account codes for outgoing calls. I would like to include these account codes in the dialplan for certain extensions (fax lines, modems) so that they are not prompted for the 4 digit code when making a toll call. I have played around with the 'w' command with ZAP channels, commas, and DISA, all with no success. I see a lot of examples of Asterisk with account codes, but they are all using internal codes, not those setup by a telco. Has anyone set this up successfully or can point me in the right direction?
