[Asterisk-Users] Problems dialing out with T100P and Adtran
I have a T100P card connected to an Adtran and then a T1.
I have added the following configurations to Asterisk...but, when I dial
9 and then a local phone number, it bounces between the dial tone and
silence and the *error* light on the Adtran blinks.

I am using Grandstream BT101 phones, plugged into my LAN. I can dial
extension/phone to extension/phone in the office just fine. But, when I
dial *9* to get out, nothing happens. I don't get the dial tone back
after I dial 9, and if I dial 9 and the number and send the call...the
server runs through what looks like a connection to a Zap channel...I
don't get any noticable erros...but the call never makes it out. Once,
I dialed the number again, while the Adtran was flashing erros and the
dial tone was going in and out and it rang my cell phone...but then
immediately hung up and closed out the call?
I'm new to Asterisk...any help or insight would be much appreciated.
Cheers,

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Problems dialing out with T100P and Adtran
Nevermind. I was a digit off in my zaptel.conf...
the span for my adtran settings is 1,1,0,esf,b8zs instead of the one i
have listed below.
ph...one digit off.

[Asterisk-Users] Help with a fax via Grandstream Handytone 286?
I have an analog Fax machine which I wish to connect to the network and the Asterisk server. It will connect through a GS Handytone 286 converter and then into the LAN. Is there any information out there on what I need to write in *sip.conf* and/or *extensions.conf* to make sure the fax works as a fax? Channel 8 on my T1 is a reserved, dedicated line for the fax number. Do I need to create a special group in *zapata.conf* for the fax, or I can just have the fax extension dial only channel 8? I assume the latter, but I don't know if it will actually work. So far, I've managed to get the system up and running and working with the phones. But my limited knowledge is making it difficult to configure more advanced features. I have re-read the wiki numerous times trying to figure things out...sometimes it helps and sometimes it doesn't.

[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk Install on Kernel 2.6.x
i know asterisk itself will install on a linux kernel 2.6.x, but i've seen places say that the zaptel drivers wont? is this still true? is it possible to build asterisk/zaptel on a linux 2.6.x kernel? -- Shawn Parker Network Administrator Cumulus Broadcasting, LLC.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] What is the best Linux for asterisk
Although I haven't tried it for Asterisk yet, I use Archlinux (http://archlinux.org/) in my production environments. It's similar to Gentoo. It as a minute disk footprint, most popular software packages are available via it's *pacman* package manager, and you can get it in 2.4 or 2.6 kernel flavors. The Server I am building currently for Asterisk will run the latest build of Archlinux. I'll report back any major issues I may have with it...although I don't expect any. If it runs on Gentoo or Debian, then it will [normally] run on Archlinux. I gave up on commercial distro's like Red Hat, SuSe and Mandrake long ago. Cheers, Johnathan Bunn wrote: I would disagree, in any type of server environment you should be able to gain huge boosts from a properly tweaked kernel, I would suggest a lean distro like console-only gentoo setup with a custom tweaked kernel, and if compiling a kernel is hard just find some linux-geek who can ssh to you and build it for you, ( i have built many kernels like that ) On Mon, 16 Aug 2004 11:31:35 -0400, Vlok Stone [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: When deciding on Linux you decide which kernel to use.

Also, the most reliable version of asterisk would be a more appropriate queston. To sum, there is no magic asterisk linux distro. All have the requisite components at their disposal ( well don't use linspire since they run as root for that ease of use/ hack).

[Asterisk-Users] Cisco 79xx series IP phones
I got a call from our Cisco rep today saying that they couldn't sell just phones to anyone because if my ethernet isn't to exact spec... then they won't work at all. I've read over the Wiki documentation and it seems that the 79xx series phones work with Asterisk. They told me that without a Cisco phone system in place or a Cisco router or switch, then the ethernet wouldn't work with the phones. Is this true, or is it someone just trying to sell me a Cisco system? I don't see how my use of a Planet or Netgear switch would alter the spec of my ethernet to cause a IP phone to fail. Seems far fetched to me. I've never had any other problems mixing Cisco equipment with other product lines. Does anyone have any knowledge or experience to give me dealing with Cisco 7902G and 7905G IP phones and getting them to work on a lan with Asterisk when *not* using other Cisco hardware?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Cisco 79xx series IP phones
Thanks for the responses, everyone. One problem a colleague and I discussed moments ago is the system may preform better if we're using a Layer 3 switch. Which I would like anyway, but isn't very cost effective for an office with 10 phones and 5 workstations. A L3 switch would be almost half, if not more, the total cost of the project build. I guess it also depends on the amount of traffic and calls made from the office. But, other than the 4 sales people, I don't imagine the office having a high volume of traffic in and out. It is a small publishing house not a call center or support company. The most they use the phone system for, other than selling ads, is talking to each other and calling writers. Cheers, Joshua M.

my apologies for using a previous thread. i was in a hurry when i did it and didn't consider that some would be using threaded views.

Layer-3 switching won't add any value unless your network is rather large and you already have a need to segment it into broadcast domains. I do a fair amount of professional network performance work and we've actually been involved with a flat (layer-2 only) switched network that has over 900 active non-voip devices. Adding a couple of voip devices (for testing only) into the mix resulted in excellent quality. But, all of that depends upon how well managed the network is in the first place.

[Asterisk-Users] New office hardware set up question.
Pardon the newb question and all, but this is my first real experience with phone systems, let alone VoIP and Asterisk. I'm building an office space for a former employer and we are considering Asterisk as the phone system there. But, I've never set up an Asterisk system before so I've got a couple of questions about the required hardware. The network architecture is pretty simple, we have an incoming T1 (into an adtran box). There is a 24-Port switch and a 24-Port patch panel for the network. The office needs 10 phones and they have 5 workstations. I was looking at building a server with a WCT100P card and using Asterisk on it, and using Cisco 7905G IP phones. Now, my question is this, do I need anything else for this set up to work? The IP phones plug into the lan like everything else, each has it's own IP address and appears on the network. If I run a T1 line into the T100P card how does incoming and outgoing calls work? The T1 can be broken up into as many voice/data channels as needed, and the company has existing phone and fax numbers. I'm a network guy, not a phone guy. Is there any other piece of hardware I need between the PBX and the T1? Or anything else I'm leaving out that makes the phones work with Asterisk? -- Shawn Parker Network Administrator Cumulus Broadcasting, LLC.
