00:14.07[TK]D-FenderNovceGuru, Funny, the rest of us take this stuff for granted and see it on our PHONE's
00:14.08gitguyhi
00:14.28gitguyis asterisk 1.6 (latest one) good for production already?
00:14.58[TK]D-Fendergitguy, its in BETA.  Do the math.  And generally you do't want to take X.0 into "production" in anything.
00:15.18drmessanoIt's not even an RC
00:15.44gitguyhm okay
00:16.32drmessanowonders when "beta" went from "experimental, testing only" to "got my whole company running on it"
00:17.43ManxPowerdrmessano: sometime before Asterisk 1.0, but it really accelerated between 1.0 and 1.2
00:17.53NovceGuru[TK]D-Fender: ?
00:18.15drmessanolol
00:18.55NovceGuru[TK]D-Fender: you mean the person that wants it
00:19.00[TK]D-FenderNovceGuru, like I said... GO READ THE WIKI
00:19.02NovceGuruthinks it "should be simple"
00:19.11[TK]D-FenderNovceGuru, What you're looking for is PRESENCE.
00:19.27NovceGuruRight I just didn't get your second comment is all
00:20.47puzzledevening all
00:21.34puzzledin 1.4.20-rc2 did speex get disabled too like ilbc? I have speex & speex-devel installed, ./configure shows all is ok yet in make menuselect I only see it disabled XXX and I can't enable it
00:22.48jeffspeffhey, what's the best way to stress test a system? I want to find out how many concurrent calls mine can handle. Do I have to setup a bunch of phones and have several people call me?
00:23.08puzzledjeffspeff: google for sipp and sipsak. voip-info.org has some info on this too
00:23.28_ShrikEjeffspeff: google sipp
00:29.59gitguycan asterisk transcode, eg: when one of your endpoints uses GSM and the other one ULAW/ALAW, will it work?
00:30.09_ShrikEgitguy: yes
00:30.20gitguyif A (gsm) dials b (ULAW)
00:30.45_ShrikEg.729a requires a license however
00:31.13gitguyi'm doing that right now and getting "Call failed: 503 Service Unavailable" in xlite
00:31.23LinuxMafiahi
00:31.25LinuxMafiame again
00:31.34gitguyguess i should enable sip debug

00:32.34jbotextra, extra, read all about it, phones is http://bani.anime.net/phones/.  While personal preference will dictate which phone works best for you, general consensus on a rough order of quality and suggestibility is as follows:  Polycom (any), Aastra 480i, Aastra 5i Series, Cisco 7940+, Linksys SPA-9XX, Snom, and finally everything else.  Do not consider Grandstream phones.  Ever. places like such as
00:32.46LinuxMafiaQwell, in canada though
00:32.52LinuxMafiai did not find any of those
00:35.27[TK]D-FenderLinuxMafia, how many, and for what kind of use?
00:35.49LinuxMafia[TK]D-Fender, just 1 , for home use for now
00:35.58[TK]D-FenderLinuxMafia, And down the road?

00:36.33[TK]D-FenderLinuxMafia, What do you expect out of buying a phone?
00:36.34LinuxMafiajust want to try
00:36.41manddhow do I add another SIP account for an outgoing calls?
00:37.09manddso that when users dial 9 before the nimber, and alternative SIP is used.
00:37.16manddhi [TK]D-Fender!
00:37.35LinuxMafia[TK]D-Fender, i want it to work with asterisk and i can use it also as company/home phone (just want to check )
00:38.02LinuxMafia[TK]D-Fender, but it gotta be in toronto
00:38.05rob0haha, that was my project for the day ... an alternate SIP trunk
00:38.13mandd:)
00:38.38manddany helpful urls ?
00:38.40*** join/#asterisk Frogzoo (n=Frogzoo@124.184.18.213)
00:38.45rob0actually mine was slightly different, yours is simpler to do
00:38.53rob0(I did a failover)
00:38.54[TK]D-FenderLinuxMafia, waitasec.. I already answered all of this for you before...
00:38.57manddi hope :)
00:39.02manddyeah, not like that
00:39.10manddjust an alternative on demand
00:39.12manddnot on fail
00:39.38rob0Yours is just a matter of setting different sip.conf peers and referencing those from the dialplan.
00:39.40LinuxMafia[TK]D-Fender, yeah but people told me that dlink is blocked
00:40.03[TK]D-FenderLinuxMafia, No I recall you menioning you can't order via CC, etc...
00:40.11rob0What I did, keep poking around the wiki and trying things until they work :)
00:40.33[TK]D-FenderLinuxMafia, And I never suggested d-link for anything more than PoE switches.
00:40.48LinuxMafia[TK]D-Fender, yeah that is why i want it to be in toronto
00:40.56rob0You can have as many SIP registers and peers as you need.
00:41.03manddrob0 any samples, for sip.conf  and extension.conf?
00:41.15manddi sorta have an idea how it should work
00:41.17rob0sure, at the wiki, lots.
00:41.19LinuxMafia[TK]D-Fender, i have to go to the store by person , other wise i can not buy
00:41.52[TK]D-FenderLinuxMafia, and I gave you a link you could take the friggen Metro too and you didn't write this shit down.
00:42.14[TK]D-FenderLinuxMafia, I spoon-fed you all of this and you can't even seemed to be bothered to write it down.
00:42.25LinuxMafia[TK]D-Fender, you gave me link for canadacomputers right?
00:42.44[TK]D-FenderLinuxMafia, Go read some logs.
00:43.15LinuxMafia[TK]D-Fender, and that was some hardware that changes the ordinary phone to voip phone
00:43.19LinuxMafiai remember that
00:43.27LinuxMafiaand that device was dlink
00:43.34[TK]D-FenderLinuxMafia, No, it WASN'T.
00:44.04LinuxMafiai remember it was canadacomputers
00:44.10LinuxMafiai checked it out
00:44.23LinuxMafiathere was a branch close to me

01:10.09rob0Don't be sorry, it's true.

01:12.11rob0Hey, I have a real albeit offtopic question; what do I need for PoE? What do I search for at newegg? Or is it cheaper on a small scale to just buy AC adapters?
01:12.22drmessanoPower and Ethernet
01:12.27drmessanoand the Power must run over Ethernet
01:12.39rob0"power ethernet" turns up a lot
01:12.40drmessanoPoE is too expensive for small scale
01:12.48drmessano120V AC on pins 2 and 3
01:12.50drmessanoNo
01:12.53rob0ok that's pretty much what I figured
01:12.56mwalling*blink*
01:13.14mwallingdrmessano: PoE done right is expensive. PoE done like a hick is cheap
01:13.27drmessanoWe use PoE injectors at work for 8 devices or less
01:13.31rob0hmmm
01:14.07drmessanoI've made a freakin art of wire management and mounting of Cisco PoE injectors
01:15.02[TK]D-Fenderrob0, Since no-one asked.... how many PoE ports are you looking for?
01:15.14rob0just a couple at nost
01:15.16rob0most
01:15.25[TK]D-Fenderrob0, a number please...
01:15.47drmessanoat-nost, is Latin for "Not enough to buy a PoE swi.. holy crap that's expensive"
01:16.08drmessanoCouple being 4 or 5?
01:16.11drmessano3 or 4?
01:16.16rob0well, not sure if this old ATA would support it, so probably only one for the foreseeable future.
01:16.16drmessano5 or 6 is a handful
01:16.37[TK]D-Fenderrob0, I've never heard of an ATA that runs off PoE

01:16.59rob0I was looking at a polycom
01:17.03rob0330
01:17.19rob0I don't think it comes with AC adapter
01:17.43[TK]D-Fenderrob0, Ok, you don't seem to be reading from the same program as the rest of us.  how MANY are you looking at?  please narrow down the range and provide actual NUMBERS.
01:17.55drmessanoHe said ONE
01:18.03rob0yup
01:18.19[TK]D-Fender1 is a divorcee, 2 is a couple :p
01:18.21drmessanoTwo if his ATA supports it
01:18.29rob0which it does not
01:18.39[TK]D-Fenderrob0, just buy the power brick if needed.
01:18.41drmessanoWhat kind of ATA?
01:18.57rob0old Sipura spa2000
01:19.03rob0pre linksys
01:19.14[TK]D-Fenderrob0, no, they don't
01:20.08[TK]D-FenderYay, China Roby is back and advertising on the WIKI.  Here's hoping they don't go spamming it again...
01:20.20[TK]D-Fender*cough*cheapcrap*cough*
01:20.51ManxPowerI thought 1 is happy, 2 is a couple
01:21.13rob0That Polycom, US$138 shipped, but I'd need the power brick too: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16876129004
01:21.14[TK]D-FenderManxPower, that too.
01:21.43[TK]D-Fenderrob0, For your needs I might suggest an IP 501 in its place
01:22.13[TK]D-Fenderrob0 : well... actually.. that is shipped...
01:22.20ManxPowerAll polycoms my customers have purchased over the past 2 years came with a power supply in the box.
01:22.43ManxPowerMaybe they just didn't order the part number that does not include the AC adapter, I don't know.
01:22.55jeffspeffi'm trying to test my server with sipp... i can get the test to run, but i'm getting a few errors, does anybody have experience with sipp? or is there another suggestion for stress testing my server?

01:25.23ManxPowerjeffspeff: My idea is that 99% of Asterisk people don't understand SIP well enough to use SIPP to do anything.

01:26.20jeffspeffManxPower, I'm wanting to stress test my system to see how man concurrent calls it can handle... i asked in here earlier and sipp was suggested by 2 people that are no longer in the room...

01:28.30ManxPowerjeffspeff: No idea.  I never have to worry about it.
01:28.49dFenceoook..... maybe i'll wish i never asked that question but... apart from being absolutely hideous - what's it with GrandStream phones?
01:29.04[TK]D-FenderdFence, Cheap crap as the comments allude to.
01:29.10rob0Thanks for the suggestions ( drmessano & [TK]D-Fender )
01:29.37jeffspeffdoes anybody else have any ideas of how to stress test? i want to find how many concurrent calls my system can take...
01:29.55ManxPowerjeffspeff: I live in a corporate environment where, in the unlikely event of a system not being able to handle the load they just buy a much faster system -- cheaper than paying someone to spend days trying to figure out wher4 performance can be improved.  In a service provider enviroment, of course, things are totally different.

01:53.07freezeyif i was trying to build a medium size call center thats scalable... what specs on a asterisk machine should i go for?
01:53.10[TK]D-FenderHaMYaI, That you desperately should be considering modern hardware.
01:53.44[TK]D-Fenderfreezey, everything is scalable so log as you aren't using it to its potential.
01:54.07[TK]D-Fenderfreezey, please get SPECIFIC for your starting point, and ENDING points.
01:55.44*** join/#asterisk BeeBuu (n=beebuu@218.13.81.208)
01:56.06freezey[TK]D-Fender: starting point is 1 t1 line coming from a trunk with an 800 number and trunk size is roughly 50 lines and ending point would be a voip solution that can start off with roughly 20 people and expand to possibly 500
01:56.55[TK]D-Fenderfreezey, now try to put solid terms to those numbers an describe usage and maybe we'll be able to suggest something.
01:57.21freezey[TK]D-Fender: lets say its a 24hr service center and want to be able to support 200+ concurrent calls
01:57.42[TK]D-Fenderfreezey, All over T1?
01:57.52freezey[TK]D-Fender: yeah
01:58.46[TK]D-Fenderfreezey, ok, well if we're talking local, the calls themselves aren't too serious.  HWEC required, transcoding should be avoided, then it comes down to call recording.
01:59.18freezey[TK]D-Fender: calls could be long distance as well... and call recording capabilities are a must..
01:59.59[TK]D-Fenderfreezey, fast big RAID array, native codec recording recommended.
02:01.56freezey[TK]D-Fender: so say like a dell poweredge 2950 with about 5 drives with a raid 5 array
02:02.22[TK]D-Fenderfreezey, Aim for RAID 6.
02:02.29freezey[TK]D-Fender: slap asterisk on their and grab a t1 digium card with all polycom phones?

02:38.29drmessanoI'd like to have that problem
02:39.35jbeezfrom his description, he had a cable modem account with multiple public ips, several boxes "outside" of the dd-wrt plugged into a switch using public ips, and his lan computers behind the dd-wrt and when he would transfer the files between his lan computers and the servers in his little dmz as he called it, he would get these janky transfer rates

02:40.30drmessanoA VLAN using 5 routers is not a VLAN
02:40.57jbeezhe didn't really have a vlan, he had an unmanaged switch with those servers plugged into it and the cable modem, and the wan interface of the ddwrt
02:41.14jbeezand home computers i guess behind the ddwrt box, and these boxes outside were hosting things, website, maybe email

12:17.05puzzled[TK]D-Fender: any idea what the best practice is with irqbalance. Iirc it should be turned off. Do you agree?
12:17.42[TK]D-Fenderpuzzled: Never heard of actually.
12:18.08puzzledah ok. it's a service on RHEL/CentOS boxes. It dynamically spreads irqs over cpu's
12:21.30tzafrir_laptopBut if you have just 2 CPUs, isn't it best to let 1 CPU handle all the hits and keep its cache warmer?
12:24.28awkdoes anyone have agx-ast-addons for centos 4 (rpm) ?
12:25.09puzzledtzafrir_home: yes I guess so unless it gets pretty overloaded. in the past I would fiddle with smp_affinity settings and assign the nic to one cpu and raid/e1 card to the other cpu

12:52.15puzzledtzafrir: just read that irqbalance switches irq beteen cpu's and that may result in dropped irq's which you obviously don't want
12:52.23tzafrirLet them hog specific CPUs, if reasonable
12:52.27awkJT cmake doesn't compile. so its 1 story after the next..
12:52.39awkcmake requires ceratin vars that are not defined and its turning into such a hack
12:53.05awkand ive tried the agx-ast rpm package but it doesn't come with rxfax.. or app_fax.so
12:53.55tzafrirpuzzeled: on a different matter:
12:54.31tzafrirwould you consider moving the default extensions.conf to /usr/share/asterisk/configs/extensions.conf
12:54.43tzafrirand have in /etc/asterisk/extensions.conf:
12:54.59tzafrir#include /usr/share/configs/extensions.conf
12:55.15tzafrir(with perhaps an extra line or two of notes)
12:55.55tzafrirThe idea is to let the sample config file update on version updates, and thus keep serving as a useful reference
12:56.29puzzledtzafrir: I always stick them in /etc/asterisk-samples_<version> so they never interfere with the real config
12:56.31tzafrirWithout running over the user's configuration
12:57.33tzafrir/etc/asterisk-samples_<version> ? Why the <version>? Do you expect two versions installed ocncurrently?
12:58.15puzzledno just in case configs changed between versions so it's just a reminder
12:58.49tzafrirIf it's something the user shouldn't edit, why place it under /etc ?
12:59.56puzzledwell I have them in /usr/share/doc/asterisk-<version>/ too :)
13:00.11puzzledbut that way it's easier to copy stuff between samples and the real config dir
13:00.41JTawk: what about cmake from a package?

13:19.54jayteeis it that no one is talking? or no one is listening?
13:19.58rob0Now, with asterisk, but never with asteriskNow. :)
13:20.02JimTheBeefWould you say asteriskNow is a lot more limited that the standard asterisk ?
13:20.24JimTheBeeflol
13:20.26rob0Don't know, but I imagine it has to be.
13:20.27LinuxMafiaany one
13:20.28jayteethe GUI is just glued onto asterisk but it limits you
13:20.46JimTheBeefcan you not pass all the standard commands though the console then ?
13:21.13rob0If you do things in the console / config files that the GUI doesn't understand, the GUI breaks.
13:21.33JimTheBeefoh dear :(
13:21.44JimTheBeefmaybe i need to install the proper version then

15:30.29rickrossI'll have to find what options that is invoking
15:30.34[TK]D-Fenderrickross: Go check your features.conf
15:31.46rickrossFender - is this discrete channel method the best option to record for podcasting? (so we can adjust the in/out volumes independently if needed)
15:32.29[TK]D-Fenderrickross: Why would you broadcast each half of the call separately?
15:32.37rickrosswe wouldn't
15:32.41[TK]D-Fenderrickross: and I've never broadcast anything like that.
15:32.48[TK]D-Fenderrickross: then why do you want them separate?
15:32.58rickrossbut often there is a significant variation in volume between in and out
15:33.20rickrossso, for post-production, it would be helpful to have discrete channels that can be independently processed

16:50.18cli4me*out-of-band
16:50.35[TK]D-Fenderkeith4 : I'd use SIP gateways over channel banks any day.  CB makes your T1 card the poitn of failure, has clocking concerns, adds the cost of the card, etc.  SIP gateways can allow you to have a HA setup w/ redundant servers, removes the need for stupid DMTF features, zaptel, etc.

17:33.28jbot[~itsp] An ITSP is an Internet telephony Service Provider or "VoIP Telephone company". The allow you to either PLACE calls to the PSTN (called Termination), RECEIVE calls from the PSTN (called Origination), or both. Some offer fixed rates, others $/min.

17:33.36ManxPower~trunk
17:33.36jbotit has been said that trunk is a word with varying definitions.  In Asterisk, a trunk is a "stream of UDP packets containing IAX2 frames from more than 1 call"; in telecom, a trunk is a "single voice channel between two pieces of switching equipment."; in Ethernet a trunk carries more than one 802.1q VLAN.  There is no such thing as a "SIP Trunk" -- Don't use the term.

18:00.31mratliffokay guys...another question...this time regarding raid
18:00.40mratliffwould 1+0, 5, or 6 be best
18:01.08mratliffthis server would have a heavy load potentially
18:01.08[TK]D-Fendermratliff: 6 clearly.

18:53.47Hawk36I can dial out but can't receive calls :(
18:53.52ManxPowerHawk36: If there is, it would come from les.net

19:29.31anonymouz666even if I am not using DNS SRV?
19:30.37jpeeleranonymouz666: that's correct, if no srv record is found it will just do a normal lookup. but this behavior is only present in 1.6
19:31.07b11d`IAX is supposed to work well behind NAT correct?
19:31.18jpeelerb11d`: yep
19:31.21[TK]D-Fenderb11d`: easier than SIP+RTP anyways
19:31.23defsdooranyone here use sangoma a500 ?

19:31.58b11d`sweet..
19:32.00b11d`thanks TK
19:33.25anonymouz666I just need a normal lookup :)
19:35.51jpeeleranonymouz666: since dnsmgr isn't present, the IP change isn't going to be detected
19:36.17jpeeleri'm not sure if there is another way to force the lookup
19:36.33jpeelerthat's why dnsmgr support was added :)
19:36.53anonymouz666"sip reload" do it, but thats not a good fix

20:17.13adr3nalin3Hey guys I am having trouble hooking up my digium t1 card with the telco PRI.  I got the digium driver loaded and everything.  When I change the switch type to Nortel DMS all alarms clear but the telco says I am throwing errors on their end.  Also in the zaptel.conf span=1,1,0,esf,b8zs line it should auto detect which one is being used correct?
20:19.42[TK]D-Fenderb11d`: if you get that regardless on an single channel with little traffic, codec won't matter
20:20.03b11d`i figured as much..  the lag is not that noticable anyways..  i appreciate it TK.  Thanks.
20:20.31[TK]D-Fenderb11d`: note I HAVE seen IAX lag all by itself whereas SIP would not.  I'd advise testing.

21:07.17anil-astIs there a command which plays a file and stops while the caller is speaking something. Right now, we have solution integrated with nuance but the caller has to wait till the prompt is over as anything he speaks during does not stop the recording.
21:07.44[TK]D-Fenderanil-ast, No, there is no "stop on audio" option.
21:08.04LinuxMafia_[TK]D-Fender, it does not load

21:08.44anil-astthere is also a speech api which is not documented properly. I am willing to write a connector but the documentation on that is poor

21:38.21defsdoorended up trusting that my home line wasn't setup correctly by BT for this
21:38.34defsdoorand was true apart from the one duff line - which was eventually fixed
21:38.41jdugganbasically we had a pbx outage so had them move our number mapping to their own internal extensions and they gave us some nortel handsets, so we can only test on a BT line which was used for a redcare system, i believe

21:55.27adeelLinuxMafia, what exactly is your problem?
21:55.29mwallingpreferably red or green.

21:55.50Maliutamwalling: really? I find the black works best
21:55.53LinuxMafiaadeel, i dont know how to set it up
21:56.07rob0yikes.
21:56.14adeelLinuxMafia, i'm assuming the DI-604 is a router right?
21:56.15LinuxMafiaadeel, i connect the adaptor as client into router
21:56.22LinuxMafiaadeel, right
21:56.30LinuxMafiai spent 100$
21:56.33mwallingMaliuta: http://www.redgreen.com/
21:56.35LinuxMafiafor these
21:57.03adeelLinuxMafia, pretty much you just need to forward ports UDP/5060 & UDP/10000-20000 to the ATA
21:57.17adeelLinuxMafia, but then you need the ATA to register with a Voice Service Provider/ ITSP
21:58.13LinuxMafiaadeel, oh but phone light is not on on the adaptor
21:58.32adeelLinuxMafia, the phone light will only come on once the ATA has registered with the VSP/ITSP
21:58.51adeelLinuxMafia, you still need someone to terminate your calls to the PSTN (typically)
21:59.19LinuxMafiaadeel, oh how do i find out what ip address ata has?
21:59.39adeelLinuxMafia, there should be a status page on the DI-604 that should give you the ip

22:34.45LinuxMafiaManxPower, it is about my syslink adapter
22:35.08adeelLinuxMafia, try plugging your machine directly into the linksys adapter
22:35.14adeelLinuxMafia, or try reading the book on the SPA
22:35.14ManxPowerAh.  The vendor was no help?
22:35.23ManxPowerThis isn't really an Asterisk issue.

22:41.26alanciohi people, have a question
22:41.52alancioI am trying to place a call across the internet, using SIP, and the other party answers but he can't hear me, although I can
22:41.57alanciowhat can be wrong?
22:42.01adeelNAT?
22:42.28adeelalancio, you're probably behind a NAT/Firewall and you need to open ports
22:42.34adeel~NAT
22:42.35jboti guess nat is Network Address Translation  Usable in Asterisk sip.conf file with externip, localnet, and localmask setup properly.  See docs.
22:43.00adeel~firewall
22:43.01jbotsomebody said firewall was This is a form of Internet security that stands between a private network and the Internet. It is like a wall in that it can prevent unwanted traffic from passing either way. Some firewalls have proxy functions built in. In fact, the distinction between a firewall and a proxy is often blurry. Add in the differences and similarities between a firewall and packet-filtering router and you've got one big ball of confusion. True ...
22:43.05alanciook, I am not behind a NAT, but my friend is (although his asterisk box is the one doing nat)

22:43.38adeel~1-way audio
22:44.06adeelalancio, he needs to setup his firewall to allow RTP packets in from ports 10000-20000 udp
22:44.37alanciobut is this necesary even though I am calling to his asterisk, to its not natted interface
22:44.46adeelyep
22:45.03alanciowhat about if I use canreinvite=no, or something like that? so that asterisk is always in the middle
22:45.15adeelthe reason why he can't hear you is because none of the RTP packets are getting to asterisk
22:45.44adeelalancio, look up 1-way audio/ nat & asterisk on www.voip-info.org
22:45.50alanciook thanks
22:46.22alanciois there any way to solve it using a netfilter module for connection tracking of sip?
22:46.35adeelalancio, yes...it's possible
22:46.54adeelalancio, but you need to realize that SIP and RTP are related, but different things
22:47.13adeelSIP is used for control/signalling while RTP is the actual media...they operate on 2 different ports
22:47.27alanciommm ok, I see, I think sip is actually working well, but RTP is not
22:47.29rob0ip_conntrack_sip IIUC won't substitute for having the SIP UDP port open to the host that wants to initiate the call to you.
22:48.12rob0(if you have registered to that host, I might be wrong)
22:48.36alanciowe are both registering to the asterisk box
22:48.43alancioand the asterisk box does the nat

22:53.38adeelNugget, i haven't had that problem
22:53.42NuggetI gave up on it and just put asterisk completely behind NAT.
22:54.08ManxPowerthe two biggest issues I've seen is the Asterisk box NATing packets from the internal network to the external IP of the box
22:54.08Nuggetperhaps it has improved since 1.2

22:56.18`Sauron"bindaddr has been buggy" ?
22:56.24`SauronIt's not rocket science.
22:56.48Nuggetin my old topology, NAT wasn't a factor.  The asterisk box sat on both the public and the private networks and no phones had NAT in between them and the asterisk box.
22:56.56Nuggetand asterisk was flaky
22:57.18alancioif I remove bindaddr, what will be used?
22:57.22adeelNugget, what IP did the phones register to? public or external?
22:57.23alancioit has to bind to something
22:57.24ManxPowerPeople are lazy and set their nat rules to be "nat anything not destined for the local internal network", not realizing that they should not nat packets going to the OTHER local network, the external IP of the box
22:57.46Nuggetadeel: the inside phones to the inside address, outside phones to the outside address (obviously)
22:57.53ManxPoweronce you fix that, register your phones to the external IP, allow the SIP and RTP packets and you're done
22:58.06ManxPowerNugget: no, not obviously
22:58.15adeelNugget, why not just have ALL phones just register to the external ip?
22:58.22ManxPoweryou would still need canreinvite=no, of course.
22:58.46`Sauronadeel: Give me a good reason WHY one would have internal phones talking to the external interface?
22:59.01`SauronOther than working around some bug in *.
22:59.04ManxPower`Sauron: to make them work? 8-)
22:59.06adeel`Sauron, reduce the complexity of your IPtables...make it easier to debug....whatever
22:59.22rob0I think what he was talking about was an Asterisk connecting to an Asterisk with no NAT in the middle, not really a "multi-homed" thing as far as * is concerned, is it?
22:59.25Nuggetadeel: to avoid nat traversal and the need for my nat device to do hairpin routing.
22:59.26ManxPowerYour phones could also roam between internal and external networks with no config change
22:59.38ManxPower(you can do that using SRV records for endpoints that support it)
22:59.51`SauronUmm. There's no iptable rules involved in having internal phones register to an internal address, and external phones register to an external attress.
22:59.54adeel`Sauron, the first thing is to make sure things work, then you can work on optimization and funky setups
23:00.00`SauronTurn off IP forwarding, and it gets even simpler.
23:00.07adeel`Sauron, [15:56] <ManxPower> People are lazy and set their nat rules to be "nat anything not destined for the local internal network", not realizing that they should not nat packets going to the OTHER local network, the external IP of the box
23:00.17ManxPower`Sauron: Asterisk is pretty bad about picking the correct interface for RTP.
23:00.17adeel`Sauron, iptables is always involved with NAT
23:00.47`Sauronadeel: Huh.
23:00.51ManxPowerI'm sure it's gotten better in recent releases, but for a long time bindaddr only bound SIP, not RTP.
23:00.57`SauronLast I checked, it was PF under *bsd.
23:01.20`SauronManxPower: so all this work to fix a lousy bug in * that people are too lazy to fix?

23:06.27Nuggetthere are legitimate reasons to want to have an asterisk box which is multi-homed.  bob knows I tried to run that way for a year.

23:11.07alancioI have another question
23:11.11NuggetI ran that way for about a year and faced a pretty stready stream of small problems and erratic behavior
23:11.31alanciowhat happens if a user registers from two different phones
23:11.32Nugget(all on asterisk 1.2.mumble or earlier, never on 1.4+)
23:11.35alancioand he receives a call
23:11.51nDuffalancio, whichever one registered most recently gets it.
23:12.09adeelunless you setup the new shared line stuff
23:12.45alancioand if the one that registered most recently deregisters, while the other one was always on, the call will be correctly routed to the first one
23:13.19adeeli don't think that'll happen
23:13.20nDuffalancio, the traditional answer if you want connect SIP behavior in interesting circumstances is to put a dedicated SIP proxy in front of asterisk.
23:13.31nDuffs/connect/correct/
23:14.03alanciooh that would be overkill for me, I think I'll just have fun with these circumstances
23:14.21nDuffalancio, ...and no, there's not a queue like that -- deregistering one won't make any difference until the other reregisters.
23:14.39adeelalancio, one way to do what you want is to give the user multiple extensions and then make a ring group for it
23:14.45alanciooh ok, good to know that
23:14.56alanciothanks
23:15.06adeeland direct all calls to the ring group, so which ever device is registered will get the call...you can setup how the indvidual extensions will be rung
23:16.13alanciook, in my case each person has a phone in his work place, but maybe he leaves the office and takes the laptop
23:16.24alancioand he runs a software sip phone on the laptop
23:16.40Nuggetthe easiest solution is to have the softphones use independent SIP credentials
23:17.06alanciook, and then I would use a single extension that calls both of them at the same time?
23:17.12adeelalancio, yeah, so each device has it's own extension/pass, and then you have a ring group defined for them
23:17.16NuggetDial(SIP/user&SIP/usersoftphone)
23:17.36alanciowhat is a ring group?
23:17.46adeelalancio, what Nugget just pasted
23:18.00alanciooh ok :)
23:18.04rob0Oh, FWIW my very small * box is multihomed. SIP ATA's on the internal interface (canreinvite=no) and SIP inbound/outbound peers on the external one.
23:18.58drmessanoOh, AIFWIWIYC, my * box is multihorned.
23:19.02adeelalancio, you just define an extension to it....e.g if bob has extension 888 and his sip phone is 889, you can create a 3rd one 890 and just publish 890 to everyone, and 890 will call 888/889 until bob picks up
23:19.39Nuggetor just put both SIP clients on the same extension
23:19.57Nuggetthere is absolutely no direct correlation between extensions and SIP clients.
23:21.18rob0hey, if you do that (2 SIP clients same exten), if one picks up, what happens when the other one does? Dial tone?
23:21.29adeelyes
23:21.31rob0(assuming the call is active)
23:21.38Nuggetwhichever grabs the channel first gets it
23:22.20alanciook, I'll use that one, calling 2 sip clients on one extension, its easier to remember

23:30.30`Sauronadeel: do you really need us to give you the explanation again? :p
23:30.54adeel?
23:31.06`Sauronoh, good, you forgot.. nvm.
23:31.07`Sauron:)
23:31.16*** part/#asterisk clive- (n=pirch@dsl-242-156-73.telkomadsl.co.za)
23:31.40adeeli haven't forgotten, i just can't think of a real life situation where i'd do a deployment similar to what you and nugget had described
23:32.08`SauronSo, we all agree that * and NAT pretty much sucks.
23:32.29`SauronSo you have your NAT/fw gateway that deals with all your traffic to/from the internet
23:32.33adeeli'd go so far to say any application and NAT sucks
23:32.46jbeezsome work perfectly fine with it
23:32.52`SauronOn the outside of said gateway is a router between "you" and your internet circuit (T1/whatever)
23:32.55`SauronSo
23:33.07`Sauronin paralell to your nat/fw machine, you put a *nix box running asterisk
23:33.19`Sauronwith one interface on the "outside" with a public IP
23:33.38`Sauronand one interface on the "inside" with a RFC1819 address (or whatever internal numbering scheme you have)
23:33.58adeel`Sauron, what in gods name is the benefit of that setup? your just adding complexity for the hell of it
23:34.03`SauronNow, in effect, asterisk becomes a sip/whatever proxy
23:34.15`Sauronadeel: No you are not. You're removing having to deal with SIP and NAT.
23:34.30`SauronSo in effect, you are REDUCING complexity.
23:34.48`SauronYou're also removing having to deal with * and NAT
23:35.01adeel`Sauron, not really...it only takes 3 lines of iptables rules to get * to have that same functionality
23:35.09adeelbehind a NAT
23:35.31`SauronAnd a line of proxy-arp
23:35.38adeeland i no longer have to worry about any dual homed problems that maybe lurking inside of *
23:36.14adeeli don't need to add proxy-arp unles i have a NEED to give * it's own public ip
23:36.24jblackOh man. That ssh key vulnerability is a disaster
23:36.33`Sauronadeel: You're not listening.
23:36.46`Sauron18:33 <`Sauron> with one interface on the "outside" with a public IP
23:36.49adeelif no other services on my network is using 5060 udp then why should i bother with anyone else?
23:36.49`SauronSo yes
23:36.53`Sauron* needs a public IP
23:36.57jbeezjblack: disaster for who? :D
23:37.21jblackjbeez: Anyone running a debian derived system that uses ssh keys
23:37.58adeel`Sauron, yeah, i can come up with complicated * setups where * will not work properly...but why bother? if you can do it a simpler way, why wouldn't you? there's no justifiable reason (to me anyway) where you'd go through the hassle of this exercise, especially if you KNOW * doesn't handle the situation well....next thing you'll suggest is running SIP & RTP purely over TCP
23:38.51jbeezthats not me :D
23:39.04`Sauronadeel: The problem is the following:
23:39.05adeeljblack, what ssh key vulnerability?
23:39.11`Sauron1) It's not a complicated setup
23:39.16`Sauron2) asterisk doesn't handle it
23:39.20`Sauronergo, asterisk is broken
23:39.32`SauronWhich is what Nugget was trying to point out earlier
23:40.12`SauronAnd having written numerous network-centric applications in the past, it is NOT rocket science to map  your outbound connections (udp or otherwise) to the same address that the incoming packets arrived at.
23:40.12adeel`Sauron, and what i had tried to point earlier is that i've had a similar setup working before (hadn't tried before 1.4) and then decided against it
23:40.27`SauronThe * developers are lazy, and can't be arsed to fix it.
23:40.29jblackadeel: The one where debian broke the random number generator for key generator, resulting in a many, many easily reproduceable keys. http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.security.announce/1614

23:40.41jblackAny key generated after 2006 needs to be checked.
23:40.57russellbI don't appreciate you calling Asterisk developers lazy .. we bust our asses fixing things every day
23:40.59adeel`Sauron, so why don't you help everyone out and fix it yourself?
23:41.18adeeljblack, ouch, that sucks....good thing i don't use ubuntu
23:41.25adeelor debian for that matter
23:41.44jblackYeah. I have something like 30 systems to check
23:42.25adeeljblack, ouch...too bad you can't just force a global upgrade/key-regen on them all...but then key maintenance would be a problem
23:42.29jblackThankfully, _my_ key is older than 2006, so that's not a couple hundred easy to root system out there.

23:43.47adeelhahah
23:43.53adeelrob0, what do you run?
23:44.00rob0sorry, I like Debian, but that was pretty stupid.
23:44.02shastaain't source routing what Sauron is asking for?
23:44.21rob0Slackware and slamd64 (64-bit port of Slack)
23:44.26adeelshasta, not really....he wants * to be running on a separate network leg
23:44.49shastaok, I didn't follow the conversation closely
23:45.11jblackrob0: Yeah. It's a true egg-on-the-face moment.
23:45.12lmadsenrussellb: <3
23:45.18rob0me neither, but I tried to participate in the flames
23:45.31rob0made up a new flame when the old ones had died down :)
23:45.49jblackTo drag it bck on topic... Make sure you call anyone you know that may be at risk for the vulnerability
23:45.54jblackWith *, of course.
23:46.04jbeezlol
23:46.11tzafrir_homerob0, the Debian maintainer asked upstream (openssl-dev mailing list) if the patch is  OK, and was answered that it is OK
23:47.12rob0Okay, I'll officially admit no knowledge of the topic, but I'm sure glad I don't have to scramble to fix mine.
23:47.12adeelit's not like the guy broke it on purpose...he was trying to improve something but messed up...it happens
