00:00.07 | Uther_P | IF your provider is sending inband dtmf.. that only works with g711 codec (ulaw and alaw), so if you were defaulting to using a different codec, then the dtmf wouldn't work even if you had it configured as inband |

00:11.15 | sandboy007 | could anyone give me some pointers on asterisk behind a nat connecting to a sip server |
00:11.16 | sandboy007 | please |
00:11.36 | Silik0n | does asterisk support BGMGCP? |
00:11.42 | Silik0n | MGCP rather |
00:11.51 | kpfleming | chan_mgcp |
00:12.06 | twisted | what about BGP? |

00:12.50 | wankel | sandboy: set externip and localnet/localmask in sip.conf? |
00:13.12 | sandboy007 | wankel, do I need to setup anything about stun ? |
00:13.42 | wankel | i've never used stun. i just fix the nat instead of proxying, usually. |
00:13.55 | twisted | chan_fufme will allow use of http://www.fu-fme.com/ with asterisk |
00:13.59 | kpfleming | or use phones that support RFC3581, then you don't need STUN at all |
00:14.29 | sandboy007 | I jsut have a home network behind NAT, and the outbound I jsut want to register with sipphone.com |
00:14.45 | twisted | you can dial based on the number of shakes |
00:15.00 | wankel | you'll need to be able to port-forward on your nat gateway as well, so if you don't have any control over it you'll have to tunnel or talk to a proxy on the other side that handles rewriting and symmetric RTP |
00:15.36 | Silik0n | twisted is that anything like http://www.vibrators-faq.com/hightech/internet.html |
00:15.49 | Zorix | vibrators? |
00:15.53 | twisted | Silik0n, sorta |
00:15.53 | sandboy007 | wankel, what ports then ? |
00:16.07 | twisted | i could probally add a usb driver to chan_fufme |
00:16.10 | sandboy007 | ok, I'll read the doco |
00:16.18 | wankel | if you've got a linksys or something like that you can just forward whatever ports you want to use for Sip to the * box and then have * present itself as the external ip. take a look at http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+FWD+NAT+Config+Example |

01:10.04 | jgenender | Good evening...quick question for anyone ... |
01:10.21 | jgenender | I am considering going from my Windows based PBX to asterisk |
01:11.02 | jgenender | However, I have a certain need and I would like to know if/how asterisk can handle this |
01:11.02 | jgenender | I have a centrex line... |
01:11.02 | jgenender | So I can transfer out calls (i.e. to my cell phone) |
01:11.18 | jgenender | Without the need to tie up the line...the line is released upon transfer |
01:11.24 | jgenender | Can asterisk handle this? |
01:11.40 | jgenender | An dif so, any info on where I can find this configuration? |
01:13.00 | jgenender | anyone? |
01:15.28 | mishehu | centrex is CO based |
01:16.38 | jgenender | Yes |
01:16.53 | mlh407 | if you put asterisk at the CO then yes you could but otherwise are you are doing a connect between 2 lines |
01:17.21 | jgenender | So it cannot handle the transfer out function and drop the line upon transfer? |
01:17.40 | mlh407 | if it drops the line, then it will kill the call |
01:17.48 | jgenender | My current Windows based PBX can handle this, so i assumed its standard |
01:18.10 | mlh407 | humm ok? I guess I am not getting it then What does it do? |
01:18.35 | jgenender | Ok... |
01:18.47 | jgenender | On my Windows based PBX... |
01:18.51 | mlh407 | How do you tell the CO to transfer the call? |
01:18.59 | jgenender | I can have a "follow me" kind of function. |
01:19.11 | jgenender | It requires a centrex type line for call forwarding |
01:19.22 | jgenender | So I pay an extra 5.00 / month for it |
01:19.23 | mlh407 | if you don't have a pbx in there, what would be the key seqance |
01:19.49 | jgenender | Its not one...I think it does some kind of flash behind the scenes |
01:19.57 | jgenender | What it does is... |
01:20.03 | jgenender | It call my extension... |
01:20.29 | jgenender | Then my extension "bounces" the call by dialing the number to follow me (i.e. my cell) |
01:20.37 | jgenender | Then drops the call... |
01:20.54 | jgenender | I *think* it does this through a flash type function behind the scenes... |
01:20.54 | mlh407 | sorry, I don't know enough about centrax ... I am sure it can be done ... but I could not tell you how unless you can tell me what is going on from a DTMF stance |
01:20.59 | jgenender | Not dialed |
01:21.41 | jgenender | I will see if I can get seom info on this |
01:21.45 | mlh407 | flash is dtmf .... ok |

01:24.28 | jgenender | Thanks in advance BTW. |
01:25.32 | enyc | [all]: I would like to know if ''ordinary rockwell style serial modems can be used in 'voice interface mode' to connect to a PABX line (e.g. to provice a VOIP gate that can be 'phoned up' over local-pabx) |
01:26.05 | enyc | I know some/?many? rockwell serial modems will indeed enter 'voice' mode over serial.... |
01:27.13 | ManxPower | enyc: Then write a driver. Nobody else will. |
01:27.30 | enyc | well I want to know if this is already supported in cuirrent configartion ;-) |
01:27.37 | ManxPower | enyc: Asterisk does not support voice modems. |
01:27.58 | enyc | damn.. what sort of hardware-interfaces does it support for non-IP transports? |
01:28.01 | ManxPower | There are some "voice modem" drivers included with Asterisk, but nobody uses them and they have not been updated in ages. |

02:12.34 | jsmith | There are no complete docs :-) |
02:12.48 | Zorix | noticed |
02:12.53 | Zorix | i dont know where to begin either |
02:12.57 | jsmith | Check out the wiki at voip-info.org, what's been written so far at asteriskdocs.org, and the handbook from Digium. |
02:13.12 | jsmith | First, set up a mailbox in voicemail.conf. |
02:13.15 | Zorix | ive been using the wiki and i read all the asterisk docs |
02:13.19 | Zorix | ok |
02:13.20 | jsmith | You should be able to copy and paste. |
02:13.40 | jsmith | We'll assume the voice mailbox is number 1234 |
02:13.55 | jsmith | Then, from within your dialplan, you can send callers to your voicemail like this: |
02:14.09 | jsmith | exten => 1234,1,VoiceMail(b1234) |
02:14.13 | jsmith | (where b stands for busy) |
02:14.17 | Zorix | would it be 2 tho |
02:14.22 | Zorix | since its 2nd priority |
02:14.34 | jsmith | or exten => 1234,1,VoiceMail(u1234), where you're unavailable (didn't answer the call) |
02:14.41 | jsmith | Yes, adjust the priorities to match your dialplan. |

02:17.47 | blitzrage | twisted[work]: what line did you say to start reading in zaptel source code for the *0 option again? |

02:17.59 | NTJOCK | the BT? |
02:18.54 | jsmith | Zorix: It can be, but doesn't have to be. It's completely up to you. |
02:19.03 | Zorix | exten => _*1XX,1,Voicemail(u${EXTEN:1}) |
02:19.03 | Zorix | exten => _*1XX,2,Hangup |
02:19.18 | Zorix | what is the :1 after extension |
02:19.37 | jsmith | It strips the first digit off the front of the dialed extension |
02:19.43 | jsmith | In your case, it strips off the * |
02:19.52 | Zorix | ah |
02:19.55 | Zorix | and the _ means? |
02:20.16 | NTJOCK | has anyone read Sipura's data sheet onthe 841? It talks about all this PBX functionality as if it were in the phone. |
02:20.24 | NTJOCK | http://www.sipura.com/Documents/SPA-841.pdf |
02:20.58 | jsmith | Zorix: The _ means it's a pattern, and not just an extension named *1XX |
02:21.01 | NTJOCK | I mean pardon me but music on hold is a PBX function, the phone is just a handset/brick |
02:21.14 | NTJOCK | it's a device to connect to the pbx and hear the channel. |

02:27.34 | syslod | Yea I know you can listen to channels but its a bit more complicated than that to impliment LCS. |
02:28.42 | jsmith | I see... |
02:29.25 | blitzrage | jsmith: plus doesn't work on non Zap channels... :( |
02:29.29 | syslod | LCS works like at home. Call comes in rings phone goes to voicemail then automatically lets you listen and intercept the call. |
02:29.42 | jsmith | I see... |
02:29.52 | syslod | Hmm. SIP seems to be working better now. |
02:30.06 | syslod | Most PBX's have it. |
02:30.36 | jsmith | Hmmmn... I've never seen one with it, or at least with it turned on. |
02:30.49 | syslod | Be nice to have two way record and two way transfer too but it'll require some SIP phone interface. |

02:31.42 | syslod | Its not required. |
02:32.00 | Zorix | i want voicemail to be received by dialing the voice mail extension |

03:04.30 | NTJOCK | nugget- because that is how the rest of hte world does it |
03:04.32 | Nugget | is your zap channel hooked up to a pbx and not a pstn line? |
03:04.41 | NTJOCK | dial 9 for an outside line and then dial for amusement |
03:04.47 | Nugget | or are you trying to make it give you a secnd dial tone within asterisk? |
03:04.48 | NTJOCK | no, straight to PSTN |
03:04.57 | Nugget | because that's not how it's "supposed" to work in asterisk. |
03:04.59 | NTJOCK | Honestly would be nice to have it just dial, like our nortel does |
03:05.01 | Nugget | nobody does it that way |
03:05.06 | haha | Hai. |
03:05.07 | Nugget | *that's* how it works. |
03:05.15 | NTJOCK | ok |
03:05.21 | NTJOCK | so should I turn off the ignorepat stuff? |
03:05.30 | NTJOCK | it's all over the extensions.conf file in the default |
03:05.37 | Nugget | do you want to dial 9 to place outbound calls, or are you just under the impression that you have to? |
03:05.43 | NTJOCK | under impression I had to |
03:05.50 | NTJOCK | I prefer that you jsut pick up the phone and dial |
03:05.53 | Chuji | My sister-in-law just got a job answering Pizza hut delivery calls from home. They supplied her with a sipura and she take pizza delivery orders from all over the country |
03:05.54 | syslod | Acutally most PBX using digital have a distinctive tone or if ACR is on it has no second tone. |
03:05.55 | haha | I want to dial into an asterisk using FWD, then be able to make outgoing calls on my PSTN, is it worth my time and effort, or should I just go with vonage or a similar carrier? |
03:05.59 | NTJOCK | and that the PBX thinks about how to get there and does the dirty work |
03:06.05 | Nugget | because it can go either way. dialing 9 for an outside call is possible, if you don't want to retrain users, but it's not necessary at all |
03:06.16 | NTJOCK | No, nortel is direct dial |
03:06.20 | NTJOCK | we currently have a nortel brick-set |
03:06.22 | Nugget | I dont' care about nortel. |
03:06.26 | Nugget | I'm talking about asterisk. |
03:06.27 | Chuji | haha: It's worth the effort, as long as you have a month to spare |
03:06.44 | NTJOCK | yes, and you said retrain... thus nortel is important because they currently are trained to just dial... without the 9 |
03:06.50 | haha | Chuji: a month? |
03:06.53 | NTJOCK | prefer to just dial |
03:06.57 | Nugget | so configure asterisk to behave that way |
03:06.58 | NTJOCK | and not worry about dialing 9 for outside |
03:07.00 | NTJOCK | k |
03:07.05 | Chuji | haha: Asterisk is addicting |
03:07.14 | NTJOCK | so, should I remove the 9 from all the exten=> statements |
03:07.18 | Nugget | yes |
03:07.20 | Chuji | haha: You'll be spending the next month working on it. I promise |
03:07.21 | NTJOCK | k |
03:07.21 | NTJOCK | thanks |
03:07.26 | NTJOCK | chu- who me? |
03:07.29 | Brixius | Chuji: I'd have to agree with you on the addicting part. |
03:07.33 | Nugget | exten => NXXNXXXXXX,1,Dial(ZAP/4/${EXTEN}) |
03:07.36 | Nugget | that should be all you need. |
03:07.47 | Nugget | replacing Zap/4 with whatever channel is appropriate |
03:07.48 | NTJOCK | k |
03:07.56 | NTJOCK | I was going to leave the trunk thing in |
03:08.03 | NTJOCK | we have 4 pots lines for voice and 1 for fax |
03:08.06 | Nugget | yeah, that's a cleaner way to do it. |
03:08.07 | NTJOCK | and under * we will have 5 pots lines |
03:08.17 | NTJOCK | right now I'm playing with * on our fax line. |
03:08.17 | NTJOCK | :) |
03:08.47 | NTJOCK | when I have it behaving and handling the fax brick, 2 fax modems, and credit card creature (terminal) I'll move to testing a couple of SIP phones with it |
03:09.05 | NTJOCK | and hopefully by then Sipura will have 841's out |
03:09.16 | NTJOCK | and we can forklift the Nortel into oblivion (ebay) |

03:15.45 | NTJOCK | what does trunk digits to strip mean in extensions.conf? |
03:16.01 | Section | I dont suppose I could trouble someone for a lil help with an asterisk install? |
03:16.01 | NTJOCK | I think it means that it yanks out that digit |
03:16.22 | Chuji | NTJOCK : It's the number of digits at the front of EXTEN that it strips |
03:16.30 | NTJOCK | ok |
03:16.39 | Chuji | i.e. if you were using dial '9' |
03:16.41 | NTJOCK | so if I want to just dial, then it should be set to 0 to strip no digits |
03:16.43 | NTJOCK | got it |
03:16.45 | NTJOCK | thanks |
03:17.05 | Chuji | NTJOCK : Yeah, in the example it's just setting a variable |
03:17.30 | Section | If I want asterisk to route calls via sip, how would I go about doing it? so far the most I can get it to do is accept sip calls, but it tries to route it to console, and I daren't touch the default config for fear I break it |

03:25.33 | Chuji | rolm is a big pbx |
03:25.33 | NTJOCK | expensive |
03:25.36 | NTJOCK | proprietary |
03:25.38 | Chuji | I've worked on them before |
03:25.50 | Zorix | well at work our pbx is siemens |

03:28.04 | NTJOCK | np |
03:28.08 | NTJOCK | it's better then nothing |

03:28.20 | jsmith | Well, hopefully! That's the point... |
03:28.22 | NTJOCK | it's just that * quit working after I used the .conf files |
03:28.26 | NTJOCK | and I couldn't figure out why |
03:28.31 | jsmith | Hmmmn. |
03:28.37 | NTJOCK | so I did a purge and replace because it was easier then figuring out what I had messed up |
03:28.44 | NTJOCK | shame on me honestly |

03:29.02 | NTJOCK | it's a nice start |
03:29.05 | NTJOCK | and I did appreciate it |
03:29.10 | NTJOCK | So is the "getting started" |
03:29.20 | NTJOCK | The biggest thing I had trouble with is it covered too much ground at once |
03:29.28 | jsmith | Well, hopefully before too long the docs will get *much* better. |
03:29.32 | jsmith | It's just going to take some time. |
03:29.42 | jsmith | And yeah, I tend to cover too much ground too quickly... I'm working on that. |
03:29.44 | NTJOCK | i.e. it doesn't do a step a, why step a, how step A, test step A success. Step b |
03:30.19 | jsmith | Yup. I know. I'm guilty of trying to get you to drink from a fire hose. |
03:30.32 | NTJOCK | well newbies must sip before the gulp.... pun intended |
03:30.48 | blitzrage | Chuji: good idea :) |
03:31.03 | Chuji | I'm going to start doing that for all of our * boxes |
03:31.15 | Nugget | It's a good approach for nearly anything. |
03:31.58 | Nugget | we go a step further for shared-admin boxes with distributed.net. nobody has the ability to directly edit config files, they have to commit the change and then "cvs up" on the box. |
03:33.09 | Chuji | Jameno123: Connected to pstn? |

03:34.12 | Chuji | Jameno123: I would tell you to use supervision, but I got a lot of random hangups on that |
03:34.21 | Jameno123 | you mean reverse the red/green? just to get it to hang up? or? maybe its wired wrong? |
03:35.03 | Chuji | Jameno123 : Maybe it's wired wrong. Flip red/green. |
03:35.09 | Jameno123 | will try ;) |
03:35.30 | Jameno123 | heh, it hangs up eventually, after the timeout, but thats way too long for my environment (Callcenter) too many calls coming in to let it take 10 seconds to timeout. |
03:35.42 | Jameno123 | let me try to flip the cord. |
03:39.19 | Chuji | Jameno123 : If you have a call center enviornment, you should get away from pots anyway |
03:39.32 | Chuji | Jameno123: You really need to run a T1 or PRI |

03:41.25 | WilliamK | true... this one is using it as a lifeline when Unity goes down and I can't bring it back up immediately |
03:41.37 | WilliamK | Unity has this mysterious crash syndrome |
03:41.39 | syslod | We did one just last week that had over 40 analog trunks at $120 per trunk per month. Converted to predictive dialer and PRI. |
03:42.15 | syslod | Most we deal with there is no lifeline option. ONce they go with us its fiber so the eq can't go down anyways. |
03:42.58 | WilliamK | this one is waiting on SBC to drop fiber in, and they're going back to regular PBX and getting off the IP phones |
03:43.07 | WilliamK | ip phones have been a nightmare to them (Cisco) |
03:43.22 | jsmith | WilliamK: Snag a few of the phones and sell them to me cheap :-) |

03:48.22 | WilliamK | over 100,000 was the total investment including labor |
