[asterisk-users] Question about 7940s and call forwarding
Hello, I need some advice on the following problem I'm trying to solve: At the office we are using 7940s as our phones, connected to an asterisk box via SIP. Pretty standard setup, nothing fancy. Everyone has an extension that comes out as a single line button on the phones, with the second line unused at this point. Certain things on our phone system are set to ring all the phones in the office (support queue fills up, etc.). I just simply do something like this: Dial(SIP/123SIP/456SIP/789) which works just fine, except if someone wants to use the phone's built-in call forwarding to send their calls to their house or cell phone. Then, any call that rings all the phones gets picked up and forwarded by that person's phone and they end up getting all the calls. Originally I had set up everyone as agents and let them forward their extensions anywhere, but the agent callback stuff makes things really unstable, plus it's cumbersome to use compared to using the phone. The solution I'm considering is to make the ring all calls ring to the second line button on all the phones and disabling call forwarding in sip.conf for those lines. I'm just not sure how a phone set to forward calls will react...will it properly not answer the calls on this line, or will it try to forward them and fail and cause the calls to get dropped? Will call transfers still work for calls that came in on the second line? Also if there's a better way of doing what I want to do I'm all ears. :) -- Joshua M Thompson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
[Asterisk-Users] Weird DTMF issue
Ok, this one has me stumped. This setup was working fine Friday and now today it's just stopped working. Details: Dell 2850 running Asterisk 1.2.4. Phones are SIP phones (Cisco 7940s). Timing is done via a WCTDM card (also tried ztdummy.) All traffic in and out of this box to the PSTN is via IAX2. At some point between Friday and today DTMF stopped working right. Specifically, when you call our main # and are at the IVR, only the first digit you dial is recognized. For example if I try to dial 81 this is all I get for debugging: Rx-Frame Retry[ No] -- OSeqno: 003 ISeqno: 004 Type: DTMFSubclass: 8 Timestamp: 02123ms SCall: 00020 DCall: 9 [1.2.3.4:4569] Tx-Frame Retry[-01] -- OSeqno: 004 ISeqno: 004 Type: IAX Subclass: ACK Timestamp: 02123ms SCall: 9 DCall: 00020 [1.2.3.4:4569] As soon as the 8 is received the Background app stops playing as you'd expect, but it stops recognizing any more digits, and eventually times out and errors out with an invalid extension '8'. Even worse, if you try to dial anybody's direct extensions (2xx) now you end up in the support queue after it times out since the queue is option 2 (yeah I know that's a stupid IVR design, but I had to mimic the old PBX I didn't set up.) I've tried this through two different call paths, one through the PSTN and one direct from my house asterisk system (SIP/IAX2 end-to-end). It behaves the same both ways. The strange part is, while the invalid extension message is being played by Playback() all the digits I hit *are* recognized, as they show up in the iax2 debug output. It's only in the Background() app that this seems to be a problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. This has our IVR totally busted and I've tried everything I can think of so far. -- Joshua M Thompson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

I know you said you didn't have a firewall between the phone and the server but this is exactly the behavior I'd expect from a firewall with a default policy of drop. If it's a RedHat box of some sort (Fedora, RHEL, Centos) you might want to make sure the default firewall is turned off by running service iptables stop as root. -- Joshua M Thompson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation sponsored by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Wouldn't necessarily recommend this box for any commercial production use, but... What's common and not so common between these _very_ diverse boxes? My guess would be interrupt and/or PCI latency. Echo is produced by delays in the audio path so if some motherboards are adding delays it's going to make the echo worse. Fiddling with PCI bus settings both in the BIOS and from Linux (using the pci tools) may help in some cases. The unfortunate part about this is that there are SO many variables that can influence latency that you can't really tell if a motherboard is going to work or not until you try it. Even two MBs with the same CPUs and the same north/south bridges could produce different results. Probably the best we can hope for right now is to start building a whitelist of known good motherboards for people to reference when building Asterisk systems. -- Joshua M.

I seem to remember that there was one series of Cisco IP phones that required Cisco's call manager. Does anyone know if the 7960 will work with Asterisk or does it require call manager? 7940 and 7960 work fine with SIP. The 7905G (but *not* the regular 7905) and 7912G should work as well. I think the ones that *require* Call Manager are: 7902 7910 (too bad, it's a nice little inexpensive phone) 7920 7970 (a VERY nice phone, wish it did SIP) -- Joshua M.

That context has no way out other than to dial a valid extension. Once you do that it transfers to the in-extns context, where 666 is valid. I bet yourother phone is set to be in the in-extns context so it doesn't need to do this to dial out. Just out of curiosity why do you have this strange setup? I usually use a setup something like this: [extensions] exten = 101,1,Macro(vmextension,101,${EXTEN101}) exten = 102,1,Macro(vmextension,102,${EXTEN102}) [pstn] exten = _NX,1,Macro(route,${EXTEN}) [applications] exten = *98,1,VoicemailMain(${CALLERIDNUM}) [speeddials] exten = #01,1,Macro(route,2345678901) [internal] include = extensions include = applications include = speeddials include = pstn (where the 'route' macro is a macro that looks up the NPA/NXX via dbodbc and routes local calls to my analog trunks and long distance calls to my VoIP trunk) And then all my cisco phones are set to be in the internal context and they can dial any internal extension as 1XX or dial a plain ten digit PSTN number. There won't be a conflict because my dialplan uses strict 10D dialing (no 1+number) so anything beginning with 1 cannot be a valid PSTN number. So my dialplan.xml is set to allow 1XX to dial immediately. If you need more help with your dialing plan email me off list. I have four Cisco phones in my house (1 7960G and three 7940Gs) and they're all working just fine without problems using SIP with firmware version 7.1. -- Joshua M.

Apparently the FC2 2.6.5 kernel has another issue, one that I didn't start seeing until 2.6.6 (I build my own kernel RPMs.) There are a few files that are auto generated by the Makefile. The complete directions to set up your source tree are thus: cp configs/config-for-my-kernel .config make oldconfig make include/asm make include/linux/version.h make SUBDIRS=scripts A pain in the butt but at least you only have to do this once after installing a new kernel-source RPM. -- Joshua M.

[Asterisk-Users] US source for compatible ISDN cards?
Is there a source out there for getting Linux/Asterisk compatible ISDN PCI cards in the US, *besides* the overly pricey Eicon Diva Server? Linux Central doesn't seem to carry the NETspider-U anymore so I'm looking for either that or an inexpensive passive ISDN card to play with. I've scoured ebay and found nothing so far. :( If someone out there has a card or two and wants to sell it I'll happily PayPal you the money plus shipping. I have an NT-1 here so S/T interface is fine; all I require is that it be PCI since I don't have ISA slots. I *do* have a TigerJet card here with a U interface, but the backend chip is a Siemens IECQ instead of the ISAC so the i4l driver won't drive it. I've been meaning to do the work necessary to get it working but just haven't had the time. -- Joshua M.
