Re: [Asterisk-Users] Cisco 79xx + asterisk + some functions Q
It seems that's it not that trivial to replace a common (commercial) PBX and to have instandly all these functions. Anybody experience with Cisco's CallManager and the support of the asked functions ? http://www.asternic.org This is very nice and will help a lot, that's for certain. thank you already for this much appriciated help alex -- visit us at Infosecurity NL - Stand 08.B121 13-14 october 2004 Jaarbeurs - Utrecht Netherlands Free Registration, click here: www.axsguard.com aXs GUARD has completed security and anti-virus checks on this e-mail (http://www.axsguard.com) ___ 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
Re: [Asterisk-Users] Cisco 79xx + asterisk + some functions Q
Just some more information regarding the 7914 addon for the 7960 phone. The 7914 requires upgraded firmware to be able to work with a 7960 of firmware 5.x or above. Do not upgrade the firmware of your 7960 above 5.x until you have done your 7914 first as you cannot downgrade the Cisco to a pre 5.X version in order to flash the 7914. I was experimenting with chan_sccp2 as it is claimed to have 7914 support. I got the 7960 working ok with chan_sccp2 but was unable to get the 7914 going and could find no information on getting it working aside from references to it and a screenshot on the sourceforge site. I also found the chan_sccp2 module to be reliable but not robust. For example pressing a speeddial button whilst on a call would bring down *, taking the handset offhook and leaving it offhook would also bring down *. In the end I have gone with the SIP image and am using the Flash Operators Panel which IMHO offers better functionality anyway. It is also cheaper to buy a 15 LCD panel and secondary display adapter, mounting the panel next to the users workstation than it is to buy the 7914 (Which for us cost more than the 7960 itself!) The Flash Operators Panel also has the ability to 'monitor' an extension and then launch a URL when a call comes in.

[Asterisk-Users] Cisco 79xx + asterisk + some functions Q
Hi, I am new to Asterisk and have some general questions _before_ I start buying equipent to install and get everything up-and-running. (this means I have no running Asterisk (yet)). I have read already a lot of doc, but some things are not clear to me, since I'am inexperienced in Asterisk and PBX. The goal: Make PBX using Asterisk and Cisco 79xx equipment for 25 phones (1 x 7970, 4 x 7960, 20 x 7905 / 7912) + 4 ISDN BA connections using ELSA ISDN (Hisax compliant) boards. I will use SIP between Cisco CP 79xx and Asterisk, and mainly the ISDN gateway towards the public network. Q's: 1) Status info: can I see on my 7960 equipment (eventualy with the 7914 extension) who is free/busy and alike ? 2) Can I use 1 button press on that 7960 to transfer the call to that free line ? 3) Besides the physical differences, are there functional differences between 7960, 7940, 7912, 7905 ? (ea, are there functions (like hold, transfer, ... that are missing on a certain model ?) or are the firmware images of alle equipments the same ? 4) Can Asterisk (or own extensions/scripts) drive the dis- play on the 7960, 7940, 7912, 7905 ? (for example: incomming call from XXX = we do db lookup = when found, we show their Maintenance status on the Cisco display of the phone that answers the call) 5) I understood that the 7920 (Wireless) does not support SIP. Does this limit this equipment very much ? (no call transfers, or on-screen info, or ... ???) Or has anyone heard of a newer model that will support SIP ? 6) Can we make following scenario work with Asterisk ? Incomming call = secretary she answers and looks on her 7960 + 7914 who's free she transfers to X during transfer, a db lookup is made (or own Postgresql) to find a matching original tel number. As a parameter, X is passed, so via IPC we can do a pop-up on his PC (when on) with info of the caller. X receives the call on his 7912 / 7905. On his Cisco display some extra info is showed to tell him that info was found and he should look to his PC. 6) Any direct pointers towards similar projects Thank you very much, a-like-to-become Asterisk user/developer.

While it looks like recent SIP images support this multiple call appearance feature, to my knowledge asterisk does not. -- Matt Ranney - [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ 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

You can see who is busy or idle or not registered, you can transfer via drag and drop, you can popup a webpage with the callerid passed to your web application (in our office, we open a webpage with customer information and details before we pick up the phone). You can modify the callerid text before transferring to pass information, and many features more.. Its not exactly what you want, but similar. It needs a PC, you cannot do it just with phones. http://www.asternic.org Best regards, -- Nicolás Gudiño Buenos Aires - Argentina ___ 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
