[Asterisk-Users] Noisy/Clicky hangup
When I call in from an outside POTS line to a Zap channel, and the call ends, it seems like the hangups are very "sloppy." I see Asterisk give the hangup command, but on my phone there's lots of clicks and the line acts like it's staying open for several seconds, then I hear a phone ringing sound followed by "If you'd like to make a call, please hang up and try again..." Is there something wrong with my setup that it acts this way, or is that just "how it is?"

[Asterisk-Users] chan_zap "Cannot handle frames in 2 format"
I have discovered something quirky in our Asterisk. If I call in to a Zap channel (from an outside POTS line), then transfer the call around several times, I get the above error, after which it will hangup. I believe Asterisk may issue a SIP CANCEL to the extension it was starting to dial. Now when I say 'transferred around several times,' our routing is pretty compex and uses the database lookup for user extensions. It plays a static message, then goes to a 'which user do you want' type menu, then may go to voicemail or ring an extension, while I beat on it with Redirect commands through the management interface. I sometimes redirect it to specific SIP extensions and sometimes to users, which have to be looked up in the database. The SIP phones are set to communicate with Asterisk only using mu-law. The IAX connection uses GSM (and we do have multiple Asterisks talking over IAX). One thing that puzzles me is that the "format 2" in chan_zap I believe corresponds to GSM. Where is it getting that? It should only be using mu-law on the local system. The only other possibility that occurs to me, is that voicemails are left in GSM format. Is it possible that if a call gets transferred after it's already in the process of leaving a voicemail that will break it? Suggestions?

[Asterisk-Users] * Picks up line during outgoing call
We have some regular POTS phones connected to our incoming line as well as the machine that runs Asterisk. Sometimes during an outgoing call from the POTS phone, the Asterisk will pick up also, and play its menu. The FXO card is set to fxs_ks signalling; I'm told this might be the culprit but I really don't understand about the signalling types and what the ramifications of different ones are. Any help?

[Asterisk-Users] Q. on key sniffing/spoofing
Hi everyone, I'd like to set up the RSA keys for the IAX registration, but have a couple of Q's. I have the manual and can follow the instructions, but I want to understand the limitations. First, understand there will be a central Asterisk (which has the private key?) and several remote Asterisks (which are as automated as possible, and each have the same public key?). We don't want the remote Asterisks to be able to spoof each other. 1. Do I have to type in the same "PEM passphrase" on both the central (at our office) and the remote asterisk? Or can the remote one just do "init keys" or "asterisk -i" without needing anything else. I understand the key has to be copied over there. 2. What's to stop someone from sniffing and spoofing the data coming from a remote Asterisk just as easily as a plaintext password. Could Joe Blow set up an Asterisk at his house, and give it the same public key, and it would register as whichever one he wanted (assuming he could guess an installation name). 3. What information is actually contained in the encrypted message from the remote Asterisk? Is the solution to create a separate key pair for each remote system, so that no two systems have the same public key? I'm assuming Asterisk can handle different keys from each one.

I have one of the Digium 4-port FXS cards, although it only has 1 of the 4 modules installed, making it a 1-port FXS card I suppose. I plug it in, and plug the power connector into it, but none of the 4 LED's come on. Are they supposed to? doing an 'lspci' I believe I see it listed as a "Tiger Jet" product. But when I do a ztcfg or cat /proc/zaptel/*, it doesn't show up. All I see are the other 2 FXO cards which are also installed.

[Asterisk-Users] Alternatives to FXS cards?
Hi everyone, I know someone makes a product that's a POTS phone to SIP converter, where you just plug your POTS phone in one side and the network cable in the other. Has anyone successfully used any of these with Asterisk, and if so how expensive were they? I ask partly out of frustration with the FXS cards but mostly because it would make installation MUCH easier for what we're doing, plus it would be another piece of hardware that we could re-sell, plus it would free up some slots in the server, which is valuable real estate.

Most of the time, when someone calls in from the outside on a POTS line, and possibly over IAX as well, they don't hear any ringing sound while the internal SIP phones ring.

[Asterisk-Users] chan_zap won't load after CVS update
I've just finished updating my Asterisk to the CVS version. Unfortunately, chan_zap won't load anymore. The hardware has not changed and the config files have not changed. I can re-install the two packages back and forth. The old one will still work. The new one won't. I tried updating to a brand-new zaptel and wcfxo modules, with no difference. This has got to be the most frustrating thing about dealing with Asterisk. This is also the same error I get trying to get the FXS cards to work (I have never succeeded).

Ah ha. That's *almost* got it. It will now load and * will run. The only big gotcha is it won't pick up or dial out on a POTS line. ztcfg shows both channels configured OK, as does 'zap show channels.' If I try to dial out I get: -- Executing Goto("SIP/3063-74d0", "outside|9555|1") in new stack -- Goto (outside,9555,1) -- Executing Dial("SIP/3063-74d0", "Zap/g1/ww954...") in new stack == Everyone is busy at this time I had the same problem the other day. Resolved it by essentially blowing away the existing src directories (rename them if you want) and doing a new cvs checkout. I know I seen someone post something a month or two ago relative to using a cvs flag to effectively over-write everything on the local system. Guess we're all supposed to be linux cvs experts. In my case, I was simply trying to do an update to asterisk (without zaptel, zapata, etc), and that didn't work since some constants were apparently defined in some non-asterisk header file (zaptel, I think, but I didn't bother to search it out) that were needed in one of the channels modules.

[Asterisk-Users] Need help with jitter buffer/quality settings
I'm using Asterisk to do audio as well as H.263 video over SIP. Actually the video works pretty well but I have trouble with the audio. I'm wondering if someone can suggest codec/jitter settings or other tweaks. The system looks like this: Softphone <---ulaw> Asterisk #1 <--IAX (usually GSM)-> Asterisk #2 < IAX (usually GSM) > Asterisk #3 <--ulaw-> softphone. Now originally I had all jitter buffers turned off. Today I tried turning the jitter buffers for Asterisks #1 and #3 on with maxjitterbuffer and maxexcessbuffer set to 1000. That seemed to help a little. Then I tried those settings for Asterisk #2 and it seemed the same or worse. I have tried several different audio codec choices as well. The puzzling thing is, the video works pretty well but the audio has the trouble. It's largely bandwidth-related but a residential DSL line ought to be able to get out a good audio signal! Sometimes the audio is good but most of the time it's garbled or cuts out completely. We've tried reducing the bandwidth of the video signal, but that's not the whole story. Now when I do an IAX2 show channels on Asterisk #1 or #2 (during a call), I see Lag and Jitter values in the tens of thousands and climbing, in spite of the fact that I set jitterbuffermax to 1000. That also is puzzling. I suspect I shouldn't be seeing large numbers like that. We also do audio-only calls of course. Sometimes those sound great but a lot of times those break up as well. So, my Q's are: 1. What should I set the jitter buffers settings for each of the 3 Asterisks above? The links between them may be low or high speed. 2. Should I force a particular audio codec? 3. Is there anything else I can do to improve the audio quality? (besides a faster connection) Thanks. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

In an attempt to reduce bandwidth usage, I tried forcing my Asterisk to use Speex. I did a "disallow=all" then an "allow=speex". The crazy thing is, it didn't reduce the bandwidth usage at all! I can do an IAX2 show channels and it shows the call being in format 512 (Speex, right)? Then I switch iax.conf to only allow ulaw. I retry the call. IAX2 shows the call is in format 4, as expected. But in both cases, iptraf shows the call is consuming about 170kbps (85 each way) over the baseline. How can this be? How can there be no difference between the two? :-/ ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
[Asterisk-Users] Excessive VNAK's and jitter over IAX2
Howdy, I recently saw something strange with a call between *'s over IAX2. There are actually 3 *'s involved. The setup is like this: SIP phone --(ulaw over LAN)-- *1 IAX2 (ulaw over Internet) -*2(GSM over Internet) ---*3(ulaw over LAN)-- SIP phone Now what is shown below is the Asterisk in the middle, that is doing the conversion between the other two, one of which only speaks ulaw and the other only speaks GSM. The call basically seemed to work, except the audio quality was terrible, but it did seem to be basically connected. Asterisk started spewing out these VNAK messages, thousands of them as fast as it could. In the middle of it I did an "IAX2 show channels" to show what was in progress. The asterisk version shown here is a completely stock, CVS version from just a few days ago. The "outboard" Asterisks are somewhat modified but also re-synchronized with CVS within the last week. Also, all Asterisks have iax jitterbuffer=no. So, my questions are: 1. What do the excessive VNAKs indicate? Some type of communication error? NAT-related perhaps? 2. Does the 20,000+ jitter have something to do with the audio sounding terrible? 3. Why is there jitter at all if all Asterisks have their IAX2 jitter buffers turned off? 4. Is there any significance to the "Username (none)" for one of the peers? The Asterisk has both peer and user names for both machines. The caller name shows up, but the callee name is always "(None)" Ideas anyone? Thanks.

I copied sphinx2-simple to another file and changed sphinx2-continuous to sphinx2-server. So, I ran eagi-sphinx-test under asterisk. What exactly is it supposted to do? Here's what I get: I wondered how long before someone started asking about that. That was all about creating a hook into Asterisk where it would stream the audio over a socket to another program (which was a custom program we wrote, but similar to the Sphinx example programs). The Sphinx program could do the voice recognition and possibly return a result to Asterisk over the socket, in the form of a text token. The goal was to be able to route calls using voice recognition. It basically worked, except at the time we were having terrible problems with the Zap cards and echo. It was distorting the sound so horribly that it wasn't even human-recognizable, much less machine-recognizable. We've put that project on indefinte hold for now but it could possibly be usable again in the future. It's been many months since I worked on it so I'm a little rusty. If you used something like an ISDN line where you could get a clear signal it did pretty well. Of course it was only choosing between about 10 different words. The eagi-sphinx-test program is basically a stub that has the necessary hook into Asterisk. We have a modified "Sphinx AGI" which is similar to the test program but just includes some of the logic of what we wanted it to do when it heard a token, etc.. As far as the Sphinx side of it goes, I actually posted the modification I made to Sphinx to read audio from a socket to the Sphinx mailing list. I was surprised that no one hardly seemed interested in it. The stock "Sphinx server" doesn't read audio over the network. It only communicates the responses over the network. That's why I had to make the above-mentioned audio-socket-read modification. - Matt ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

[Asterisk-Users] Broken DNS makes Asterisk whacky!
Check this out. I recently closed a bug I had written, #495 "ExtraChannel in transfer causes crash" Now I've been able to reproduce it, and somewhat narrowed down the culprit. But before I write another bug report, I wanted to see if anyone else had experienced the following (or would like to try:) When DNS (or outside connection to the network, not sure which) is broken and you have "register=>" lines in iax.conf, Asterisk gets whacky. First of course you'll the message "Host (whatever) not found at line (whatever)" in iax2.c at startup. It takes a long time for the lookup to timeout. Later, I get some other generally bizzare behavior including: 1. I get "everyone is busy at this time" from devices that aren't. 2. The dual-redirect crash is 100% repeatable now. One of the last things you see is "planning to masqerade 0sd8(*&(& INTO " just before it crashes. If you remove the "register" lines from iax.conf (or fix your DNS/Internet problem) it runs fine. My first thought is it could be a timing issue due to the timeout taking so long during startup. Looking at the IAX2 registration code, it doesn't immediately appear that a failed registration would wreak any particular havoc. Does this sound similar to anyone else's experience? Anyone else care to verfiy? Our Asterisk version is pretty close to CVS, maybe a few weeks out but I didn't see any bugs listed that seemed to address this. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

But this is not to say _you_ can't built a reliable VOIP based system. Get _two_ providers and set up your dial plan in extensions.conf to "fail over" if one service fails to connect to dial via the next one and finally if both fail use pstn. your users will see a system the "just works". Now there's an idea. I'm playing with this now, but there's at least 1 case I'm having trouble recognizing: The call connects but then drops due to "unauthorized." It then only goes to the "h" extension and I don't get a chance to try again. Is there anyway to detect this? I have to cover all of the following cases: 1. VOIP IP address is not reachable. Goes to extension n+101 (seems to work as expected) 2. VOIP service answers but refuses with call with "unauthorized". It just goes to the "h" extension Is there any watch to catch this failure? Perhaps put a timer on it and say if the call was less than 5 seconds or something try the next one? Yes I am using a correct username and password and getting this today (not from Voicepulse, from another provider).

[Asterisk-Users] Re: MeetMe Video option
That's one of the things that's been on our (1control, I have nothing to do with Digium) wishlist/"to do" list that just hasn't gotten done yet. Currently, video in meetme is not supported. What we experience is the audio will conference with the other audio streams but the video just freezes. I was hoping to look into someday but I'm swamped with 1000 other things of higher priority. I have been thinking though, of some ways it could be supported, starting with the simplest and easiest: 1. First, if only 2 of the phones in the conference are video phones, allow them to exchange their video with each other, while having all of the audio streams conferenced as usual. 2a. The next step could be having each videophone "rotate" which stream it was showing for a few seconds (20 seconds maybe?). i.e. you could have 3 video calls mixed with several audio-only calls. Initially video call #1 would show #2's image, #2 would show #3's image, #3 would show #1's image for a few seconds, then rotate them by 1. Of course you don't need to show your own! :) Actually, ours has a picture-in-picutre in the corner so you can see yourself all the time anyway. 2b. The other option instead of time-rotating the images would be to try to show the image of whoever was talking. That kind of sounds like a pain to me, but maybe it's doable. 3. The really fancy thing would be to have Asterisk decode all of the video frames and create a 2x2 or 2x3 or 3x3 etc. mosaic, re-encode them and send them to each client. That REALLY sounds like a pain to me, but again, maybe it's doable. Right now I'd be pretty happy with 2a though. - Matt Message: 3 From: "Regovich, Timothy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Fri, 30 Jan 2004 13:07:46 -0500 Subject: [Asterisk-Users] MeetMe Video option Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello All: Has anyone configured a meetme conference to use video?

[Asterisk-Users] Re: MeetMe Video option
No, there is no video output once the call goes into a meetme room. What I was talking about is a case where you have a regular video call between 2 video phones, then you try to send them to a conference room. The audio still works but the softphone's (Linphone in our case) behavior is to just freeze the video with the last image it received. I should mention one caveat to my previous suggestion (about just passing through the video with 2 phones or "rotating" through the images) ; I was assuming that all video calls were using the same format. In our case that would be true for the time being. That should be easy to do, just direct the rtp packets to the desired client. If they were using different video formats, you'd have to translate between them.

[Asterisk-Users] Need knowledgeable comments, bug 981 and dual redirect
It seems I'm not the only one that's had a difficult time with the "dual party redirect". i.e. You have a connected call and you want to redirect both ends of the call into a meetme room (presumably because you're going to add more people). AFAIK, the only way to do it is using the "ExtraChannel" feature with Action: Redirect (it needs to be done from the management interface in my case, assume the user cannot use his phone's conference feature). Up until a cvs update about 2 days ago, I would have intermittent crashes with this ("ExtraChannel in transfer causes crash"). The most recent cvs hasn't shown me a crash so far but exhibits the bugs in #981 Can someone knowledgeable about masquerading shed some light on this (I've tried to follow the code but it's pretty confusing, what with all the zombies and AsyncGoto's and p->pvt->pvt's, whose meaning eludes me): 1. Is there a better way to accomplish the dual-redirect using only the management interface? 2. Is Masquerading used for anything other than this feature? 3. Is the masquerading code going to remain in Asterisk (comments suggest that it's some sort of temporary hack) 4. Is there a flowchart or description anywhere of what states the channels are supposed to transition through during masquerading and dual redirect? I'm willing to try to diagnose it but it's just really confusing. I was hoping that someone who really knew how this works could give some words of wisdom before I am pulled into what will probably be a very time-consuming task.

[Asterisk-Users] port number keeps changing
We have an asterisk installation that's on a residential-grade DSL and its port number (as visible from the outside) keeps changing, every time it registers. fuser indicates that asterisk is only using port 4569 for IAX2 (as it should), but when it goes out over the Internet, the port number is reported as something in the 1's and it changes every time. Obviously, this is a network issue of some type, but can anyone explain more precisely why this happens and how to stop it?

[Asterisk-Users] Please Explain newchan->pvt->pvt
I'm into my 4th or 5th day of working on bug #981. I know that part of the problem is that the fixup routine is called in chan_sip.c. Well in there is a line that says p=newchan->pvt->pvt. Problem is, that doesn't exist in this case. I see "pvt" described as "private lock" but that doesn't mean I have any clue what the ramifications are in this instance. Of course I can easily put a check into fixup that says if p is NULL then return success. But what does it *mean* if newchan->pvt->pvt is NULL? What should be done in this case? This situation happens (sometimes) when the "dual redirect" is used and it's in the process of transferring the original receipient. i.e. A calls B, then you do the dual redirect. Regardless of which parameter goes into "Channel" or "ExtraChannel", "B" is the one that will cause the crash, as it's going through the masquerade process.

[Asterisk-Users] Zombies got me!
After 2 weeks on bug #981 (Dropped Channels during dual redirect), I just posted 2 patches and almost have it fixed. The only problem is, the patch has a side effect of leaving some zombies. That is, the zombie channel that is created during the masquerade process doesn't get hungup. If I can get rid of the zombies, it will be 100% done. Out of 30 retests, I was left with 11 zombies, so it's not all the time. I suspect it's 66% of the time when a certain channel/extrachannel combination is used (11/15 is pretty close). Interestingly, that proportion seems to be the complement of the original 33% dropped channels. I would really appreciate help from someone who can help with this.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Woodpeckers
The low "B" string on a 5-string bass guitar is approx. 31 Hz A power spectrum plot will tell him he has a 60Hz hum. I think he already knows that. I think he can definitely consider solutions without following your suggestion. :-) No, It's not a "60Hz hum". Yes, 60Hz is getting into the line but the existing filters are removing the 60hz. What he hears is most likely 120Hz, 240Hz or something else or most likely a combination of various multiples for 60hz. I'd bet that the tiny speaker inside a telephone handset can not even reproduce a 60Hz tome. Yes you can hear a hum but it's the overtomes of 60 that you hear.

That's what I'm trying to get at. *normally* you expect to dial 00 but when you're using voicepulse, Asterisk needs to start all international number with 011. Think of it this way, in VoicePulse's mind, you're always dialing from the US. Of course the user will try dialing 00 because that's the 'normal' way to do it. So what you have to do is change your dial plan to intercept a "00" prefix and reformat it using a 011 prefix, something like this: exten => _00[1-9].,2,Dial,IAX2/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/011${EXTEN:2} Message: 9 Date: Mon, 23 Feb 2004 07:49:07 -0700 From: Michael Welter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Re: Asterisk-Users digest, Vol 1 #2879 - 10 msgs Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the UK it's "00" then the country code.

[Asterisk-Users] Re: Confusion with IAX PBX-PBX
You can have it accept "unauthenticated" calls from anywhere, if you wish, or you can have it require a password. The password is the "secret" field. The username is the context heading "othermachine-1". If no "secret" is defined, it will accept incoming calls from anywhere. Besides iax.conf you also need to look at extensions.conf. It is there that the rules are setup telling which machine to dial under what circumstances. For Example, Assume the name of this machine is "othermachine-0" [going-to-other-machines] exten => _71.,1,Dial,IAX2/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/${EXTEN:2} exten => _72.,1,Dial,IAX2/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/$(EXTEN:2} This would set up a dialing rule so that if you dialed "711234" it would call extension "1234" on othermachine-1. Similarly, "725678" would dial "5678" on othermachine-2. othermachine-1 and -2 would have to have definitions in iax.conf, as you suggested, and "othermachine-0" would have to be defined in the other two servers (but not on itself). What those lines are saying is "If a number starts with 71, dial the extension number (except leave off the first two digits, the "71" itself) on othermachine-1. Tell othermachine-1 that my name is othermachine-0."

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Voicemail has hard-coded limit of 100 messages?
Ah, so in a normal Asterisk world, the messages are supposed to be moved to another dir.? In our deviant Asterisk world, the voicemails are never checked through the phone, only through a custom web interface, so they stay in INBOX until they're deleted. Thus they collect quickly to over 100 total. Perhaps what you really should be asking is, "why am I receiving more than 100 messages between the times when I check my voicemail, and what can I do to either decrease that number or arrange for voicemail to be checked more often?" ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
[Asterisk-Users] How can I use the # key normally?
Is there a way to disable the transfer function of the # key? When calling other services, we often need it to access other menus, other voicemail, etc. Does this have anything to do with the T and t options in the Dial string? Thanks. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
[Asterisk-Users] 800 Numbers (was Re: NuFone?)
I have been having the same problem with 800 numbers. NuFone and VoicePulse always behave the same (when one can't connect, neither can the other). I have so far found no explanation for this. Some other 800 and 877 numbers I can call. Can you elaborate on this at all? Thanks! o I couldn't dial 800 numbers via Nufone (IAXTel and PSTN worked) - I had forwarded him all pertinent information from my configs - All I got from support was, "Everyone else can." and "I can't reproduce it" and "we treat 800 the same as all other US calls", even after I had suggested that it wasn't him, it was the carrier he passes the call to. - I finally figured out that his carrier requires exactly 10 digits in the callerID, for tollfree numbers. This requirement does not exist for any other US number. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
[Asterisk-Users] RE: 800 Numbers (was Re: NuFone?)
Ah, I was hoping to find the silver bullet, but no such luck so far. I have tried every combination of SetCallerID and SetCIDNum in my extensions.conf, both with and without the |a option, on both services with no luck still. When I call myself on our 877 number, I can see that the caller ID being sent is correct, 10 digits. Still won't call American Airlines. :( Well, there ya go. :)=20 -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of=20 Robert Hajime Lanning Sent: Wednesday, March 17, 2004 1:15 PM To: Asterisk Users Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] 800 Numbers (was Re: NuFone?) =20 I did not have intermitent access.

[Asterisk-Users] Where is the archive?
I've been trying to search the archives for older messages, but the archive at: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/maillist.html only seems to go back a few days.
