[asterisk-users] Question about 7940s and call forwarding

2006-08-31 Thread Joshua M Thompson
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. :)

[Asterisk-Users] Weird DTMF issue

2006-02-27 Thread Joshua M Thompson
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.

 It would have been helpfull if you would have posted the few dialplan
 entries associated with starting the ivr. The following works fine for
 me for incoming iax2  analog pstn calls:

Here's the IVR. As I said this was working at least through Friday and
was in service for quite some time with no changes:

exten = s,1,Set(TIMEOUT(digit)=5)
exten = s,2,Set(TIMEOUT(response)=20)
exten = s,3,Answer
exten = s,4,Wait(1)
exten = s,5,Background(s24-intro)

exten = 0,1,Playback(transfer)
exten = 0,2,Set(CALLERID(name)=Operator Line)
exten = 
0,3,Dial(SIP/221SIP/222SIP/223SIP/224SIP/225SIP/227SIP/230SIP/231SIP/233SIP/240SIP/241SIP/242)
exten = 0,4,Hangup

exten = 1,1,Playback(transfer)
exten = 1,2,Set(CALLERID(name)=Sales Queue)
exten = 1,3,Queue(sales)
exten = 1,4,Hangup

exten = 81,1,AgentCallbackLogin(||@outgoing-voice)
exten = 81,2,Hangup

exten = 83,1,AgentCallbackLogin(||@outgoing-voice)
exten = 83,2,Hangup
exten = #,1,Directory(s24,extensions)

exten = i,1,Playback(pbx-invalid)
exten = i,n,Goto(s,5)

exten = t,1,Hangup

include = extensions

include = s24-daytime|8:00-16:59|mon-fri|*|*
include = s24-evening|17:00-17:59|mon-fri|*|*

include = s24-nighttime|0:00-7:59|mon-fri|*|*
include = s24-nighttime|18:00-23:59|mon-fri|*|*
include = s24-nighttime|*|sat|*|*
include = s24-nighttime|*|sun|*|*

(the extensions context, obviously, contains the individual extensions
which are 2XX. There is a support queue at option 2 that's routed
differently by time of day and it's in the daytime/evening/nighttime
contexts.)

The problems seems to be in Background(). If I add a WaitExten(10) as
s,6 and wait for the entire menu to play through I can dial an extension
during the silence. But if I try it during the menu it recognizes the
first digit and then times out while ignoring subsequent digits.

I just can't understand why it suddenly stopped working. Nothing was
changed over the weekend.

 What version of code are you running?

1.2.4 now. It was on 1.2.3 but upgrading asterisk and zaptel was the
first thing I tried when we noticed the problem this morning.

 I assume you've tried stopping and restarting asterisk, right?

Yep tried that a couple times now. Also thought maybe the TDM400 card
was acting up so I switched to ztdummy, since we're only using the card
for timing purposes.

I'm about to try rebooting the entire machine now that it's after hours.
There's nothing suspicious in the logs or dmesg output but rebooting is
about the only thing I haven't tried yet.

This looks strange to me...your server appears to be completely ignoring
the tftp requests from the phone. It's not even responding with a
connection refused. 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.

It's quite possible you have an interrupt-related problem in 2.6 but not
in 2.4, since 2.6 tries to fully utilize ACPI now. You might want to try
booting with acpi=off and see if that fixes the situation.

 The cdr_addon_mysql module does not want to load and Asterisk claims 
 that it cannot open shared object.

 It compiled fine, however.

It sounds like you don't have the MySQL client libraries properly
installed, although you seem to have the headers since the module
compiled. If your mysql client libs are not in /lib, /usr/lib
or /usr/local/lib then you'll probably have to add whatever directory
they are in to /etc/ld.so.conf and rerun ldconfig.

Star38.com is a caller ID spoofing service that was recently announced.
You subscribe to the service, and then when you want to make a call you
fill out a web form with your phone #, the number you want to call, and
the CallerID you want to appear on your call. The system then calls you
and the victim and bridges the calls together. Supposedly they're
going to only sell this service to what they consider legitimate
customers (licensed private investigators, etc.)

Looks like an Asterisk box and a simple CGI script to me.

 Is this possible out there without a SS7 gateway? Or do you need just a

It can be done with a PRI as long as you just have a friendly provider.
It's not hard to find one at least in the US.

Maybe a bad batch of cards? When did you buy yours? I got mine mid-June,

Hmm that will be perfect for my new multiline Future Vision BBS ;-)

Hi,
 
When we use BudgeTone where the DTMF is set to via RTP (RFC2833)
 all the DTMF functionality of Asterisk is working OK. When use Cisco
 7960 the transfer is working OK, but when I try to remote pick-up the
 call through '*8#' I can't do that because the Cisco Phone start busy
 signal.
How can I start using all DTMF features using Cisco Phone?

Is your cisco dial plan file set up to allow you to dial *8#?

 No echo on eMachine T2240 2.2ghz Celery, 360m RAM, with either tdm04b

 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.

 Hi All,

 A friend of mine bought this a couple of days ago and had to

I run a couple several 7960G and 7940G phones at home using SIP (no Call
Manager) and they are the best phones I've ever owned. Was your friend
just unable to find SIP firmware for them?

Then the trick is just finding someone who will sell it to you. After a

I bet Cisco could make some easy money by whipping up a PHP or Perl
script that would let you sign up for IP phone SmartNet contracts via a
simple web form (enter your name, billing address, CC#, phone model and

 I have been doing so much reading on phones lately that I have completely

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)

The reason  you're getting this behavior from the Cisco is that you have
assigned it to the in-internal context. 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.

You'll need to configure the source tree before zaptel will compile. The
config files are in /usr/src/linux-2.6/configs...copy the one that
matches what you're running to /usr/src/linux-2.6/.config and then run
make oldconfig. Zaptel should compile after that.

 Thanks for the try but its didn't work.. Got exactly the same result..

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.

The ${EXTEN} variable is the extension number, which in this case will
always be 99. You will want to use ${CALLERIDNUM} here (or some variant
thereof.)

[Asterisk-Users] US source for compatible ISDN cards?

2003-10-24 Thread Joshua M. Thompson
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.

 Total file size of the database was under 200meg, and was fully cached

What table type? The default MyISAM tables don't support row-level

InnoDB tables however are much, much better. Hell SlashDot runs on MySQL
