[asterisk-users] Presence Management - use of hint
Hi, I am working on Presence management on a SIP client. I have something working based on SUBSCRIBE / NOTIFY mechanism and Asterisk hints. I know that an other solution could be implemented using peer to peer SUBSCRIBE / PUBLISH mechanism. I would like to understand the advantage and drawback of each solution. My main concern is the case of a complex VOIP environment such as Asterisk server to server connection. As example if we have : [client A] -- [Asterisk 1] --- [Asterisk 2] ---[client B] Using hints and SUBSCRIBE / NOTIFY would it be possible for client A to be notified of client B presence modification ? If client A can call client B, it would make sense to have SUBSCRIBE / PUBLISH with peer to peer mechanism working. Am I right ?

[asterisk-users] Presence Registration on the D40
So I'm working with our Digium D40's and we're not using DPMA. This video ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zcuocp01pfM#t=35s ) shows presence information being displayed in the Contacts application. Obviously the video is showing DPMA in play. Is it possible to enable this functionality without it? Is this status information only available on higher-end Digium phones? In the contacts XML data, I am supplying the appropriate parameters: contact first_name=John last_name=Doe organization=Acme contact_type =sip account_id=123 subscribe_to=123 but I am not seeing the icons shown in the video at all. On the Asterisk CLI, I can run: etc*CLI core show hint 2003 2003@default : SIP/charrington_desk State:IdleWatchers 0 1 hint matching extension 2003 and Watchers is always 0 for all extensions. Is there a separate way I can test subscribing for presence information? I don't even know, at this point, if it's the phones or Asterisk. -- -Chris Harrington ACSDi Office: 763.559.5800 Mobile Phone: 612.326.4248 -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

[asterisk-users] Presence subscription from other pbx systems
Hi members, I have a question regarding presence in asterisk. I have two PBX systems and would like to connect them. After configuring each other as sip providers calls between users of the pbx systems are possible. Now I'm trying to implement presence between the systems. PBX1 sends dialog-event SUBSCRIBE messages to PBX2. Asterisk just answers 404 not found although user 410 exists. I think this is for security reasons. Is there an option to allow presence subscription from configured providers?

Re: [asterisk-users] presence with polycom DND
You might have to look at writing a forward macro on the server that would be dialed by the DND button - that also changed the device status to busy(via the devstate app?). My guess is that it would be less than 10 lines of dialplan code, but maybe 1.6 only PaulH cfh wrote: hi, I have configured asterisk 1.4.21 to control the presence BLF (hint + watch buddy parameter) of Polycom phones (650,550,330) and it works good.

[asterisk-users] Presence on Polycom 301 partially broke?
Hi all- Equipment: Xlite softphone Polycom 301 with SIP 2.1.1 and BootROM 3.2.3 Polycom 501 with SIP 2.1.1 and BootROM 3.2.3 Asterisk 1.4.2 SIP Trunk to FWD I wanted to post this problem as I haven't found it described in any of the past presence threads on here. I use an identical configs for a Polycom 501 and 301. (I actually unplug one when the other is in use). The only difference between the two is that the different mac.cfg and mac-directory.cfg have different MAC addresses. On the 501, presence works fine under the Buddy Status screen and when a Contact is put as a speed dial on a line key, the icon next to the line key changes correctly depending on the buddy's status. On the 301, presence works fine under the Buddy Status screen, but the icon for the Contact when put as a speed dial on a line key remains the dial pad icon no matter what the current status of the buddy is. *The buddies ARE added to the contact list with the buddy watch enabled. I have had a very experience Polycom/Asterisk person from the #asterisk IRC channel recreate the problem. I am wondering if anyone has seen this and found a fix for it. Or is it a known problem without a work around? I am doing the most basic config possible on the phones. From the default configuration, I change on the following: sip.cfg: voIpProt.server.1.address=192.168.0.34 feature.1.enabled=1 phone1.cfg: reg.1.address=station1 reg.1.label=101 sip.conf ;Polycom Phone [station1] disallow=all allow=ulaw allow=alaw type=peer context=internal host=dynamic dtmfmode=rfc2833 callerid=101 101 nat=no qualify=yes canreinvite=no notifyringing=yes notifyhold=yes call-limit=99 ;X-Lite softphone [station2] disallow=all allow=ulaw allow=alaw type=peer context=internal host=dynamic dtmfmode=rfc2833 callerid=102 102 nat=no qualify=yes canreinvite=no notifyringing=yes notifyhold=yes mailbox=1234 call-limit=99 extensions.conf [internal] exten = 101,hint,SIP/station1 exten = 101,1,Dial(SIP/station1) exten = 102,hint,SIP/station2 exten = 102,1,Dial(SIP/station2) exten = yy,1,Dial(SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED]) ;(yy is really a known fwd number) Any thoughts?

[asterisk-users] Presence-awareness in Asterisk
Hello all, I am just wondering - how can I implement presence awareness in Asterisk? I know there is the hint feature that might be useful (for someone) but it is not exactly what I am looking for. My idea is some fairly simple application running on user desktop and having just 3-4 buttons like - online - do not disturb - forward to my mobile and possibly also monitoring xscreensaver activity. This application could then communicate with the * server (via AGI or SQL database or something) and amend the dialplan accordingly. Does anyone implemented it somewhere? How can I achieve this? I am happy with just any hint pointing me to the right direction.

Re: [asterisk-users] Presence-awareness in Asterisk
Hi Anselm, Yes it looks promising. somehow update the status in the Asterisk DB and that's the problem - how can I access Asterisk DB remotely (in some nice and elegant way)? That's why I was more thinking about mysql - it is already running on my * box and remote access is no problem. Question is, if I could do the same trick you did with Asterisk DB with Mysql. Thanks!

Ciao Ondrej, That's why I was more thinking about mysql - it is already running on my * box and remote access is no problem.

[asterisk-users] Presence SUBSCRIBE/NOTIFY behaviour
I'd appreciate some feedback on the behaviour of some tests relating to presence SUBSCRIBE/NOTIFY. In the tests no NAT or proxies are involved. We have a client using a SIP stack accepting requests on one port (eg 5060) but handling responses on a 'temporary' port. In other words it sends a request on a port '', quotes port '' in the 'Via' header, and then handles the response to that request on port ''. What we're seeing is that * sends the notification requests to the '' port associated with the SUBSCRIBE request/response rather than 5060. Naturally this port is no longer open, so they don't get through. I'm interested in how * figures out the addressing for the notifications. Is it from the Via header on the SUBSCRIBE (although I thought this was just used for responses?) or does it assume that the source of the subscription is the target for the notifications, or is it through some other means? Is it expected behaviour? OPTIONS requests generated by * are targetted at 5060 so they get through without any problem. Any light you could shed on this would be helpful - at this stage I'm just trying to establish what the correct behaviour is.

We are sending the NOTIFY as transactions within the existing dialog, the SUBSCRIBE, which means that the via header int he SUBSCRIBE applies. Whether this is the right or wrong way, is something we have to find out from the RFCs - a task that is not always easy. /Olle --- * Olle E.

Hi, -Original Message- I personally don't think it's a good idea to implement it in chan_sip. One reason for this is that user1 wants msn, user2 wants jabber, user3 wants icq, user4 wants gadugadu etc etc. Are you gonna implement all this ? That is, if you mean Instant Messaging in SIP ;) Forgive me if I'm wrong... You actually need a little of both. For PC interfaces, a universal messaging would be nice. There are SIP devices which support SIP messaging though, and they will not be able to deal with much else. Some form of integration in chan_sip will make sense...

[Asterisk-Users] presence and IM again, want to develop a working hack
Hello, I was again asked to try to add support for presence (SUBSCRIBE/NOTIFY) and IM using SIMPLE. I have few questions: a.) are there any, at least partial projects, patches, anything, that at least partly implements presence and/or IM to chan_sip? I don't care about presence on other channels, I have one SIP client per user. I've read this list's archive several times and found lots of wonderful proposals, which try to convince asking users, what needs to be done to support this well (multichannel, multiple phones per user, ...), mainly saying, that without very difficult reworking of internals, it would not be supported. What I really need is to hack it into chan_sip.c. I need the support of other channels and applications (f.e. MeetMe), but where I really care about presence and IM is SIP. So, any project, hack, patch, anything, that would allow me to go further with this would be greatly appreciated. I found this page in Russian: http://www.asterisk-support.ru/forums/development/53843189454 that somehow deals with the problem. I tried babelfish translation, (http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/trurl_pagecontent?lp=ru_entrurl=http%3a%2f%2fwww.asterisk-support.ru%2fforums%2fdevelopment%2f53843189454) but I was not able to find out, if it really at least partially solves this problem, but as far as I understand it, Windows Messanger makes use of Subscribe/Notify, so this should be it. b.) Anyone has a partial solution using SER (which supports presence and IM) as a frontend, but routing all calls through Asterisk? Can this be done? I need the calls to go via Asterisk (I don't mean only sip notifications, but also the data, so I have canreinvite=no). So basically, SER would be a registrar proxy to Asterisk, which would do the authentication. The only thing, that SER would do would be to handle presence and IM and pass everything else on to Asterisk (as far as I know, SER can't pass traffic through it. I need the data to pass through the SIP server, since machines in my network topology don't see each other, it's a star with Asterisk in centre -- quite poetic indeed:). Any ideas, pointers to similiar configurations, ... are welcome. c.) If there is no solution to start with, is it possible to implement it only to chan_sip? I'm not familiar with Asterisk source code at all. Where are the places to look (in chan_sip.c) which are best to hook this code. Again, any code, hints, etc. about the structure of the source code are really welcome. Doing this in a clean way (although it's a hack) so it can be reused by community as much as possible is my intent. If anyone wants to help with the project by donating coder's time, mail me off the list. I hope I'll be able to support presence for hardphones and Xten's eyeBeam softphone in a few days with your help.

If anyone wants to help with the project by donating coder's time, mail me off the list. I hope I'll be able to support presence for hardphones and Xten's eyeBeam softphone in a few days with your help. Best wishes and thanks for any replies, Juraj. Hi, Why not use the manager interface to poll if the sip device is logged in? You can make a script that puts your jabber client on/offline based on the manager output. I personally don't think it's a good idea to implement it in chan_sip. One reason for this is that user1 wants msn, user2 wants jabber, user3 wants icq, user4 wants gadugadu etc etc. Are you gonna implement all this ? That is, if you mean Instant Messaging in SIP ;) Forgive me if I'm wrong...

SV: SV: [Asterisk-Users] Presence and IM?
Hello all! First of all, thank you for all suggestions. As suggested, FOP does show who's online, but it's not really what I'm looking for. As said before, there's possibilities within the SIP protocol to have presence indication (using SIMPLE?) and that's what I would like to use. Not there yet, but imagine a small department with five staff members, all equipped with laptops. Some of them are constantly on travel. With the ability to use presence, any staff member will be able to tell right away who's online and who's not, without going through an operator or opening up FOP through their web browser. I'd consider this an advantage.

Hello, We have been running Asterisk for about a month now and one of the things I miss the most is the ability to se who's online and available and who's not. Surely, there's the manager interface, but unless you'd want to install extra software on each client computer, this is not a good option. Then there's the presence / IM function in SIP. Since we're only using SIP clients, this could easily solve some of our problems. However, I cannot get this to work with Asterisk using Eyebeam. Is this because the function is simply not supported within Asterisk? If lack of support is the case, anyone knows if this feature is to be implemented in the near future? I have the same problem and am seeking for few weeks for a suitable solution... If you'll figure out something, please let me know. We use Polycom IP500s which when used with a 'hint' in extensions.conf, can show presence via the 'buddy list.' could you post a snippet? Does this hint work as a presence agent and sending notifies?

Asterisk does support the presence support in SIP, at least in CVS head. It takes some fiddling to make it work. Below you'll find a link that will hopefully help you.

Hello again! As said below, this was already tried. However, it doesn't work. I should add that I've gotten the hint function to work through the management interface, so the syntax should be right. But for presence it's not fully compatible with SIP devices and software such as EyeBeam.

Re: SV: [Asterisk-Users] Presence and IM?
Hello, We have been running Asterisk for about a month now and one of the things I miss the most is the ability to se who's online and available and who's not. Surely, there's the manager interface, but unless you'd want to install extra software on each client computer, this is not a good option. Then there's the presence / IM function in SIP. Since we're only using SIP clients, this could easily solve some of our problems. However, I cannot get this to work with Asterisk using Eyebeam. Is this because the function is simply not supported within Asterisk? If lack of support is the case, anyone knows if this feature is to be implemented in the near future? I have the same problem and am seeking for few weeks for a suitable solution... If you'll figure out something, please let me know.

Maybe, but that would not have been a reliable way of handling it, as not all users would necessarily use voicemail.

[Asterisk-Users] presence and video conference

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Presence
This is a wonderful idea. I like the app_im concept a lot. I'd make a few additions though. Like the ability to have festival read the Away message as the Voicemail message. I'd definitely change my voicemail more often if I could do it by changing my Jabber away message. I would suggest that Jabber would be a more effective first target though, as with it comes the ability to hit AIM/ICQ/MSN/Yahoo/etc users via a simple proxy. Having just the one implementation would simplify things. Chris Tooley On Wed, 2004-04-07 at 21:29 -0400, John Todd wrote: At 8:29 PM -0400 on 4/7/04, Shad Mortazavi wrote: I have to agree.

[Asterisk-Users] Presence (was FW: pda skype)
Dean Collins just sent out a message a second ago (responding to an earlier posting regarding the new Skype PDA client). He said: Presence based information is the biggest 'seller' in the IP PBX market at the moment, being able to tell what/where a person is certainly driving a lot of sales through my door. I would like to take a moment to second his message. Every presentation at the VON show concurs with his opinion. PRESENCE IS LIKELY THE MOST IMPORTANT SINGLE ADDITION TO ASTERISK THAT COULD BE MADE AT THIS TIME. I know there are people out there working on or waiting for all kinds of features. And I understand that all of them are important in one way or another. But THE feature that turns up time and again on RFPs for VoIP phone systems is PRESENCE. Like it or not, managers like to know where their people are. Friends like knowing where their friends are. Everybody likes being able to communicate how they want, when they want. This is the next step beyond the follow-me/find me applications. Beyond the basics of VoIP. And this step is driving people to deploy VoIP systems (including Asterisk). Perhaps the gory details of implementation are best reserved for the Developer list, but I think everybody out there can comment on the ideas: HOW DO YOU SEE PRESENCE INTEGRATING WITH ASTERISK?

The protocol is quite simple, it's all text messages. S for subscribe to a user's events, T for send a text message I was half way through discussing this with Mark and more specifically adding it to IAX (along with some other cool stuff). Unforunately, I was told to do another project asap but that'll be released next week (stay tuned). My main concern with IAX were you don't know when someone goes offline until their reg expires - no acceptable in presence. Our solution was to keep the registration session open. Keeping the registration session open actually helps everything else fall in place, you can just send messages over that session without requiring setting up a channel, auth and tear down for each message. -Adam ___ 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] Presence
I'm not familiar with the protocol used in Firefly. If that was known then it would be possible to add the functionality to * so anyone can have the simple presences by dialing extensions in their dial plan or crafted packets at a software level. Jabber is already deployed in my organization so I would lean toward integration to that standard as well.
