[Asterisk-Users] Voicemail2 - auto fill the dialing extension?
Hi, First off, a big thanks to Digium (Mark, John, and Martin) for helping sort out a BellSouth config issue on our PRI. T100P working like a champ! Now it's back to tweaking the configuration on our SIP phones (7960s). The message_uri parameter in the phone's configuration file is working great. Dials comedian mail directly. Is there a way to let voicemail2 know what the incoming extension is, and use it? On our current handsets, the voice mail button goes directly to the password prompt. And if you dial in and get voice mail, # sends you to the please enter voice mail box please... (Siemens HiCom). Not a must-have feature, but something I'd like to use myself and for our office. Also, we decided to go with actual extension numbers on the phones instead of usernames per extension. On the Cisco phones, is there a way to change the name/number on the top line (white text on black) to the user's name, while having the extension number next to each presentation (line1, line2, etc)? Thanks, * is a rocking and rolling! Regards, --- Gavin ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Sure, something like:
exten = 85000,1,VoicemailMain2(${CALLERIDNUM})
Also, we decided to go with actual extension numbers on the phones
instead of usernames per extension. On the Cisco phones, is there a way
to change the name/number on the top line (white text on black) to the

Use phone_label for that text...

I can't answer the voicemail question, but this one I can. The config
file for the phone can include the following line:
phone_label: User's Name ext. 1234
Appreciate the info. I was looking for this in the Cisco SIP admins
guide for firmware 5.1 (running 4.4, which I understand is functionally
equivalent except for the code signing bit).
The line labels are a little bit of a problem. The Cisco phones
actually
try to authenticate with the text that is in there. The cisco config
file:
It took some time to figure this out, but I use the following for a 2
extension phone config:
Phones .cnf file:
phone_label : Gavin Adams
line1_displayname : 4001
line1_name : 4001
line1_authname : 4001
line1_password :
line2_displayname : 4011
line2_name : 4011
line2_authname : 4011
line2_password :
which properly shows my name on the top line, and 4001 and 4011 for
lines 1 2 (on the right hand side of the phone). The sip.conf entries
are:
; Gavin Adams
[4001]
type=friend
username=4001
secret=
context=sip
host=dynamic
canreinvite=no
nat=yes
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
callerid=Gavin Adams (404) 262-7321
[4011]
type=friend
username=4011
secret=
context=sip
host=dynamic
canreinvite=no
nat=yes
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
callerid=Gavin Adams (404) 262-7321
Martin @ Digium was able to help out with translating the last 4 digits
on the DID to the internal extension (in this case, 4001). In
extensions.conf, I use the following for these extensions:
; used to map 7321 to 4001 for extension to extension calls
CALLID_7321=Gavin Adams 4001
; use caller id value from sip.conf to map to =text value when calling
; a local extension (i.e., not starting with _9 or other value
[sip]
exten = _X.,1,SetCallerid(${CALLID_${CALLERIDNUM:6}})
; Callerid remapped to the 4 digit extension, now pass call
; to next context with the extension being called.
exten = _X.,2,Goto,sip_old|${EXTEN}|1
[sip_old]
; Gavin Adams
; first line
exten = 4001,1,Dial(SIP/4001,10)
exten = 4001,2,Voicemail2([EMAIL PROTECTED])
; if 1st line engaged, goto 2nd line and ring
; (user may wish to put 1st part on hold)
exten = 4001,102,Goto(4011,1)
; second line
exten = 4011,1,Dial(SIP/4011,10)
; if no answer, goto VM
exten = 4011,2,Voicemail2([EMAIL PROTECTED])
; if busy (both lines engaged), straight to VM
exten = 4011,102,Voicemail2([EMAIL PROTECTED])
This mimics our current config. I've disables call waiting for the
7960's, but may play around with using that if it makes sense. Would
save a line for other uses such as meeting rooms, etc. Especially
important for the 7940's we have.
Hopefully, this configuration may be of use to someone else.
Regards,
--- Gavin

I can't answer the voicemail question, but this one I can. The config file for the phone can include the following line: phone_label: User's Name ext. 1234 This will cause the text in quotes to appear in the black bar. The line labels are a little bit of a problem. The Cisco phones actually try to authenticate with the text that is in there. The cisco config file: line1_name: Line 1 This displays Line 1 on the phone, but also tried to login to the proxy as Line [EMAIL PROTECTED]. Using other SIP proxies, you can do this with the auth name/password, but with Asterisk... It jsut doesn't seem to work. There may be a work-around for this, I've only been looking at this for a week. -Sean ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
