When a subaccount calls to report problems to us and we check our home page it will show all of our accounts as 'not registered', and then slowly one by one they will show as 'registered'. We had an incident over the weekend with a security office that couldn't receive any inbound calls. We logged in to the voip.ms site to check the registrations and initiate a support ticket and the site again said 'not registered'. The instructions had us do and 'echo test' procedure and the results were the same as when they were routed to the subaccount. The support response 12 hours later was 'works for us' and then 'check your routers and firewalls'. Comments? Who are other good candidates for reselling VoIP like this model? Voip.ms is a great service if you don't need t.38. The only "problem" is that there is something fish going on if you use registration authentication. Time to time, you will loose registration. Fortunately you can configure your account to be IP authentication. http://www.drouillard.biz/blog/ip-authentication-with-sipxecs-and-voip-ms/ Their tech support has been fine with exception to the authentication issue which I believe is a capacity issue on their side.

Re: [sipx-users] External calls cannot be transferred to voice mail (sipXecs 4.4.0)
On 10/11/2012 10:37 AM, Henry Kwan wrote: I am a total newbie on SipXecs. I am also green when it comes to the SIP and VoIP PBX scene. Please excuse my seemingly simple question. The problem that I am encountering, essentially, is that external calls cannot be transferred to voice mail when a call is not answered. Internal calls that were not answered were transferred to voice mail without a problem. My setup: - SipXecs 4.4.0 installed from the download ISO and updated to the latest patches with yum. OS is also updated to Centos 5.8, with the latest patches. - Phones are Linksys SPA942 only, no other phones are on the system. Only 3 phones are on the system. - Domain: mydomain.company.com. company.com is registerd but mydomain.company.com is local/internal and the DNS server is the Sipx PBX. - Sipx PBX is the DHCP server, dhcp.conf file is edited to assign a limited range of IP addresses. No other dhcp servers are on the subnet. - The workarounds stated on the sipfoundry wiki for the SPA942 are implemented, i.e.: a. MOH Server:~~mh~@mydomain.company.com <mailto:%7e%7emh...@mydomain.company.com> b. Message Waiting:checked c. Mailbox ID:$USER_ID d. Voice Mail Server:extens...@mydomain.company.com <mailto:extens...@mydomain.company.com>. I have also changed mydomain.company.com to the IP address of the sipx server. - Use internal sipXbridge to connect to my SIP trunk. SIP trunk authenticated successfully and works. - Router used is Linksys WRVS4400N. Port 5080 and 3 to 31000 are forwarded to the SipX PBX. - Aliases are setup for these 3 phones are set for DID. With the above setup, I can dial extensions and have their respective voice mail kick-in when a call is not answered. Dial out and DID work as well. The problem that I am encountering now is that voice mail does not kick-in when an external call is not answered. Voice mail does work for internal calls, though. I've also added domain aliases of the IP address of the PBX and PBX.mydomain.company.com to the setup but that did not help. I also setup one of the phones to call forward to another phone, then voice mail. The call forwart to another extension worked but call forward to voice mail did not. In desperation, I also added an A record for mydomain.company.com in my DNS server but that did not help. Lacking the experience of sipX, VoIP PBX, SIP, and network debug tools, I hope experienced SipXecs users can shed some on my plight. External calls not transferring usually have 2 causes: your ITSP does not support it, the call did not come in on 5080/registration, or a firewall issue. Who is your ITSP? Did you try to forward 5060 udp/tcp also? Is your ITSP sending the calls to your based on your registration is it IP based. If IP the call has to come in on 5080 to be able to transfer. Did you do a "yum update"?

Re: [sipx-users] Weighting on ACD
On 10/2/2012 3:04 PM, Aaron Carlson wrote: Hi folks, I'm hoping someone might have a minute to explain some call weighting scenarios to me. I'm trying to set up the following situation : I have an ACD queue with 9 agents in it, plus a manager who should only get a call if all agents are busy. In theory you could have 2 queues with the first circular/longest idle queue having an overflow to the queue with the manager in it. Just test it out in your environment though. In 4.4 there is currently a bug in the ACD overflow if someone is logged in and does not answer an outside/bridged call. The call will stay stuck in the first queue, I'm not certain what hapens if I set it up with circular, rather than longest idle. If I have it set to circular, and agent #4 is next in line, but is currently set to 'do not disturb', I presume it skips to agent #5, but what happens when they come back in? Are they slotted in for the next time it comes around, or does the system retroactively slip them in to take the next call before agent #6? With the ACD you can log in/out by dialing *88 or *86 by default. Also, I want to set things up so that there's one agent that's in the queue, but only gets calls if all other agents are on a call or on DND. Is there a way to do that? If all the calls came from the ACD. The current ACD has no knowledge about calls that came in some other way or the the agent is making a call. Would that be to create a hunt group with that single agent as the target (with a voice mail if they are dnd) or would it be to create a separate queue as the overflow with that single agent as the target of the queue? Can I set it to only overflow there IF that agent is logged in, and otherwise have the call stay in a holding pattern? Hunt groups are pretty good for small groups but lack the "circular" or "longest idle" abilities. It also lack the ability to keep the user on hold until the next available agent. Should I be using hunt groups instead? For a small group I use: * call comes in to a hunt group * if no answer roll call into a AA and give the caller a chance to leave a message * if they don't want to leave a message transfer to an ACD. My apologies for the detailed nature of the question, I'm trying to set this up and am both impressed and a little overwhelmed by the complexity of the platform. -- Regards -- Gerald Drouillard Technology Architect Drouillard & Associates, Inc. http://www.Drouillard.biz ___ sipx-users mailing list sipx-users@list.sipfoundry.org List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-users/

Not sure when this stopped working but in #17 and #18 you can call into a ACD queue with no active agents and the call will go on hold but not transfer to the overflow. The overflow in this case is an AA. Everything works fine if you call the ACD via an internal phone to it's extension. It is just the external calls. Other calls from the sip provider (Voice Innovations) transfer just fine. I have "Activated" the ACD. Sent profiles to the server and restarted with no success.

I believe the ultimate in interfaces for managing the services on the server is webmin. It is very rare that you cannot do anything you want within webmin. I have to admit that a lot of "newbies" to sipx have trouble setting up the DNS. We get a lot of people with phone backgrounds coming to sipx when a "network/server" background would be the best. UC device dns settings come from the dhcp server on the network or can be static. You just cannot take over being the DHCP server without going in and shutting it off on whatever else is on the network. I can see a lot of people bringing down their network without knowing what they are doing. I think the current 4.4 way is the correct way of doing it. The page that goes out and looks at the current settings on the network is good. If you don't know how to change your current DNS or DHCP server then you should get assistance from somebody that does before installing a phone server. It is only going to get harder when their firewall is not working either. I think we have to be careful on who we are targeting on the "install" phase. There is no harm in the server being configure to be a DNS and ntp server for the UC devices. But that can be misleading as those settings can be superseded by the "real" DHCP server on the network. Don't forget all the option settings in dhcp like: sip-servers-name boot-server "Dynamic DNS reverse domain" and "Dynamic DNS domain name" could also come into play for both DNS and dhcp. -- Regards -- Gerald Drouillard Technology Architect Drouillard & Associates, Inc. http://www.Drouillard.biz ___ sipx-users mailing list sipx-users@list.sipfoundry.org List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-users/

I did post a link on how to use t38modem, hylafax (for sending) and sipx together. In this case the hylafax server was a separate machine, but it doesn't have to be if you can get a version t38modem working on your sipx server and a t.38 ITSP. http://www.drouillard.biz/blog/sipxecs-hylafax-and-t38modem/ Most of my effort was looking for a t.38 ITSP that would work with sipx and t38modem. Just wanted to point out that hylafax does have email to fax gateways, linux command line sending, and print drivers for outbound. Although it does seem like a lot of extra baggage to have to install hylafax, it does provide a solution for high outbound fax sites. IMO, if you are not a big outbound fax site that doesn't need command line sending and print drivers, then you would be better off using something like ringcentral or maybe your ITSP has a email to fax gateway. -- Regards ---------- Gerald Drouillard Technology Architect Drouillard& Associates, Inc. http://www.Drouillard.biz ___ sipx-users mailing list sipx-users@list.sipfoundry.org List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-users/

The template drop-down is only displayed after you enter a name for the gateway and then select the default SBC. 3. If you ever click the Apply button before both the name and SBC are entered, the drop down is never displayed. This is why I never saw the template drop-down. Now, having said all of that, I deleted my existing voip.ms gateway and created a new one using the template drop-down. However, this did not fix my problem and everything is as it was before.

I hope someone can help me out ASAP. I've been up all night trying to get this fixed, but I can't seem to get it to register. NONE of the phones register, so when you look at the logs you will see MANY 401 unauthorized from all the phones. This leads me to believe it is something in sipXecs or the related network elements that is causing this phone to not get authorized. We are using Polycom VVX 1500 phones, sipXecs 4.4, on RHEL 5. All of the configuration tests pass with flying colors. I even see my SIP trunks registering with my ITSP, but I can't get my phones to register locally. I've been the through the sipregistrar.log file, but I didn't see any error or issues. In fact, it looks like it says that everything is VALID and should be authorized. Any help - ANY new direction would be extremely helpful. I'm simply at a loss especially since it was working fine previously - a change in IP scheme shouldn't cause this problem if all the configuration tests passed. That indicates to me that the new IP addresses have taken hold well and the routing is operating correctly. Thank you very much in advance! What change did you make to the IP scheme? Did you update the sip server with a new IP/subnet/gateway? Is the SIP server your dhcp server? Any vlans?

On 2/10/2012 5:19 PM, m...@grounded.net wrote: Is anyone on the list using appia? Yes. We have one account with them. They have t.38 if you ask for it. I am not a big fan of fix price "plan" pricing. I miss having a voip.ms interface, and to be able to self serve, like if you have to call forward from the ITSP side. Their phone service has been rock solid though and the setup was a breeze. They don't yet have a GUI but talk about it being done soon. Just changing ports takes having to communicate with support. So far, every time we come to test something, we're told they need to program that functionality in. We were trying to test a sip to analog gateway to use with pbx's but nothing worked. They found some problems which took a week to resolve saying that they didn't cover that functionality. Now with sipx, they can't send to me on port 5080 yet I thought someone here mentioned using them and they work fine. You don't have to do IP auth with them. They do registration also. Here are my notes for appia: *Sipx setting Registration Interval: 180 (not 600 - not sure about this one though) Usually first password doesn't work. They have to reload trunk group.

At this point your inbound calls are not dependent on your registration status. Most people say the inbound calls actually connect (first ring) faster than through registration.

Actually, we have been struggling with intermittent loss of registration issues with all our voip.ms accounts. We have tried different POP's, all kinds of different registration settings. We have sent them packet captures showing the problem but still no progress. Just yesterday we figured out, you don't have to use registration if you have a static IP. Everyone says you cannot use IP auth with voip.ms because they cannot send inbound calls via port 5080. The answer is to setup you DID's to use SIP URI for inbound and use IP auth for outbound. Your SIP URI would look like {DID}@pbx1.example.com:5080. If you don't add the 5080 port then you will not be able to transfer the call. -- Regards -- Gerald Drouillard Technology Architect Drouillard& Associates, Inc. http://www.Drouillard.biz ___ sipx-users mailing list sipx-users@list.sipfoundry.org List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-users/

[sipx-users] Remote Softphones and ALG
I was wondering if anybody has had any experience in getting around remote locations (home offices) that have routers with ALG on. We have a install that will have many "home/remote offices" and road warriors. The ALG stuff is everywhere. In some case there is no way to turn off the alg like with Verizon MiFi 4G.

It would say "failed" if the phone was not registered or it could not reboot the phone, but the new config files are ready for the phone(s) next time they reboot. -- Regards -- Gerald Drouillard Technology Architect Drouillard& Associates, Inc. http://www.Drouillard.biz ___ sipx-users mailing list sipx-users@list.sipfoundry.org List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-users/

Our old system, sucky though it was, had an option to remove them when it emailed them to the user -- anything I'm doing wrong here? I can't find any checkbox to enable that functionality. If it's not there, is there any plan to add it to 4.6 or a future release? Or, is there a way for me to remove them after a period of time / in batches?

Look at the log files on the server to see if it went to sleep. What is the boot/firmware on the polycom phones?

We can register, but in the last month or so we have been loosing our registrations voip.ms from time to time, effectively stopping the in/outbound calling for 5-10 mins. It almost seems like we loose the registration at each site about once a day now. We have tried different POP's and settings in the gateway. Voip.ms doesn't seem to take it seriously. I even had a capture when we lost registration that was passed off as a "normal challenge". I believe there is something going on with their authentication.

Re: [sipx-users] SIPX - RAID Management

The configuration under consideration is a re-purposed ASUS RS500 server with a ASUS Pike 1064E raid controller based on LSI MegaRaid. What we are attempting to achieve is the installation of the MegaRaid server software alongside SIPX for ongoing management and alerting functions. Is anyone doing this, any pit falls, or concerns regarding ongoing configuration management relating to SIPX upgrades... I would suggest using software raid instead of the hardware raid. That way you can take the drives and plug them into a new machine without too much concern about adapter compatibility. -- Regards -- Gerald Drouillard Technology Architect Drouillard& Associates, Inc. http://www.Drouillard.biz ___ sipx-users mailing list sipx-users@list.sipfoundry.org List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-users/
[sipx-users] Linux NAT / Firewalls / Shorewall
Just a quick note on Linux firewalls and in this case t.38 aka fax. We had a issue with t.38 working properly on a new install. Everything else was fine. We were seeing a 200 ok message from the ITSP on the phone server just before sending t.38 that was telling the phone server the Owner/Creator was a unknown IP address, meaning the IP address was unknown to both parties. The phone server would then send the t.38 to the unknown address as directed. The ITSP showed the 200 message leaving their system did not have the unknown IP. It turns out the client's linux firewall/server kernel has sip helpers loaded and kicked in only for the t.38. The following clears up the problem: http://www.shorewall.net/FAQ.htm#faq77 or basically: rmmod nf_nat_sip rmmod nf_conntrack_sip Maybe a nice note for the wiki? -- Regards -- Gerald Drouillard Technology Architect Drouillard& Associates, Inc. http://www.Drouillard.biz ___ sipx-users mailing list sipx-users@list.sipfoundry.org List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-users/
