[Asterisk-Users] Need someone to write a console application for us.
WARNING: This has been cross-posted in the Asterisk-BIZ mailing list. Hello, we are looking for a unix programmer who can write the following type of application that works with asterisk. 1. Operator Console. When a call comes in on a did, the did should be looked up in a database(against a list of did's assigned to companies) and the name of the "called company" should be looked up. If a flag on the DID entry in the database is to forward to the operator, then the name of the called company is displayed on the operator console, ie "FooCompany is being called on line xxx-xxx-". If not, the call should be forwarded to the IVR/Context for the company.(the context will be looked up in a database table as well). The operator console should be able to answer, park, transfer and hang up calls it recieves. Additional calls(up to 3 at a time) should be able to be displayed and answered. 2. Asterisk will need to be configured to work with the above application. We don't know the best way to do this. Probably some sort of forwarding of the call to the "operator extension" and agi. We have a small initial budget($800.00) which I know is very low for something like this, but we would like to work with someone to do some sort of payment or licensing plan for the application with eventual buyout. The program can be in any language, ncurses/c, perl-ncurses, php-ncurses anything you like just as long as it works and is somewhat fast. I would write this myself, but I don't have the time since we are nearing deployment of all of the actual infrastructure for our showplace client. ___ --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
[Asterisk-Users] follow me configuration web page??
Does anybody have an example follow-me configuration web page code written in either php or perl that can write out the follow-me config into the asterisk files? I'd like to setup something on our office voip server that I can change as needed via a web page rather than writing the script by hand. If no one has one handy, I may write one. ___ 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

[Asterisk-Users] Need unique switchboard/op-panel written
Hello, we are looking for someone to write a simple switchboard application for asterisk which can park, place on hold, and transfer to extensions. Standard switchboard/operator console features but we also need the following ability. We need to have a screen/panel which monitor the operators/main extension and displays a DID's owner. For instance, let's say we forward all of our DID's to a main extension. What we need to happen is, when someone calls a DID, the DID is looked up in a database(either odbc or astdb) and the called person's name is diplayed on the operators screen. IE a call comes in on did 555-555-, that did is looked up, and on the operator's screen, it should say "Call Arriving for Joe Company", the secretary should then be able to do all normal operator functions such as answer the call, forwarding, placing on hold, etc. The switchboard application can either be unix console based(perl-ncurses?) or Windows based. Anybody have a line on a good asterisk programmer that could do something like this?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Switchboards
On the actual switchboard side of this, how would asterisk handle this...going to a central person/extension as well as notifying that person who is calling and what line they are calling on. I have a customer right now who is hesitant to move to asterisk because of the switchbaord situation. Right now they have an executone which as a few t1's coming in. DID's are assigned to customers. In the executone switchboard application when a call comes in on a DID, the called party's(one of the businesses in the building) name shows up on a console and the receptionist can answer and forward the call as normal. I guess it's as easy as all of the DID's point to a single extension, then in that extension's context we could have an agi script which looks up the name associated with the did and display it some how. Something to think about...anyone has suggestions? On 8/5/05, Tom Hayden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Well Don, it depends on how you get things setup from your telco.

I have the following upcoming install and I'm trying to do it without having to resort to Digium t1 cards. I have a Cisco IAD2431 being installed by our Carrier. That Carrier will be providing 2 IP Trunks via ethernet handoff into the Cisco IAD2431. The CIsco IAD2431 has Two T1 ports installed and we would have to install a digium card to support those two t1's. What I'd like to do going completely ethernet with this bad boy.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Features you'd like to see in a GUI?
There are so many asterisk management guis out there,some good, some not. I would suggest doing something different. I think there is a big need for a opensource virtual hosted pbx interface. I think it would help out alot of the smaller ITSP's who are trying to get into the virtual hosted pbx market but don't have the money or resources to develop or purchase a commercial product. We paid somebody to do ours though, if there was an opensource version when we were getting into this, we'd probably use it and also contribute. That's just my two cents.

Hello, long time lurker, first time writer We have the following set up ITSP | | Internet | | Cisco 2600 | | SwitchAsterisk Server running 1.0.9(has public ip) | | Cisco 515e Pix Firewall running Pix OS 5.3(run's a class c 1-to-1 nat and pat) | | Grandstream GXP-2000(run latest fw from grandstream site 1.0.1.9) The grandstream registers with the public asterisk server fine. I even see one of the dynamic nat addresses being assigned. The Pix Firewall has sip fixed up and all VOIP related ports are wide open. This is the issue: We can make outgoing calls, but we can't receive calls when the grandstream is behind the firewall If we move the grandstream in front of the pix and give it a public ip, everything works fine. What is even wierder is the fact that one of our network users who is behind the pix firewall can use ATT's VOIP service just fine. Are there any things I should be looking for? In general is the setup above pretty common? I've looked through the Wiki and searched google many times but nothing that can give me any pointers.

[Asterisk-Users] System hardware requirements for *
What would be a the minimum hardware requirements for a small asterisk pbx that would only have 2 pots lines coming in(2 fxo ports) but with 4 extensions(4 fxs ports) And enough space to hold up to a month of vmail for those 4 extensions/users? Heck what are the typical hardware requirements of * anyways? I can't seem to find this on the website. I know it all depends on the situation,but what's typical?

[Asterisk-Users] Multi-Line sip phone?
Hi, I'm looking for a multi-line sip/ip phone that can answer multiple incoming paths. IE a secretary sits at a front desk and can answer multiple incoming lines/DID's. Is there something like this?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] What exactly does IAX and SIP termination mean???
So how does Asterisk fit in to the scheme of things when connecting to a IAX/Sip termination provider? Does a IAX/Sip termination provider just provide incoming call termination or does it do inbound and outbound? -Brent - Original Message - From: "Sean Cook" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, December 01, 2004 10:26 PM Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] What exactly does IAX and SIP termination mean??? > Simplest explanation: > > IAX and SIP are protocols that allow devices to talk VOIP.

[Asterisk-Users] What exactly does IAX and SIP termination mean???
I think I have idea what IAX and SIP termination means, but can someone explain this to me? For instance, how and why would I use someone like iax.cc?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] After setting up my FXO card, what should I now order from my telco?
Well...the office doesn't currently have broadband, so vonage would be out. We don't plan on getting broadband at that office either so...PSTN is my only access option. I'm was just curious if there was a specific type of cheap line I should order. Please define the following though: 1. Vonage Line 2. Soft Line -Brent - Original Message - From: Luke Catranis To: 'Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion' Sent: Wednesday, December 01, 2004 12:02 AM Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] After setting up my FXO card,what should I now order from my telco? Get a vonage line unlimited for $24.99 per month and get a softline and have vonage set it up as a rollover line. Grand total $34.98 per month. Route outbound to the ZAP/VONAGE first, then to the SIP/VONAGE NEXT, if need be setup an IAX termination account with voicepulse or iax.cc -Original Message-From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brent ClementsSent: Wednesday, December 01, 2004 1:00 AMTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Subject: [Asterisk-Users] After setting up my FXO card,what should I now order from my telco? Ok, so I'm setting up my small office. I have my asterisk machine setup and I have 3 sip phones connected as my stations and a 4 port FXO card ready to go(planning on only using 2 lines currently). What should I now order from my telco(sbc in this case) Everytime I call, they want to sell me this expensive $50 package that bundles everything and that's for a single line. Is there a specific type of line I should request? What is everyone else doing? How much is everyone else paying for single line PSTN access for their small/medium setup's?
