04:01.56gamednawhat about their IP assignments?
04:02.08gamednai hear that they are dynamic ,and problematic for sip connecitons

04:08.54LemensTSApparently asterisk just looks at the txt files in the voicemail directory because i deleted the files and now it shows only 2 messages in the cli for that user instead of 3...
04:11.35JerJergamedna:  they are dynamic in the sense of you will get a new ip for each instance, but you keep that ip for as long as your instance is running

05:40.20gamednaMicc_: why do you ask?
05:40.31gamednaim in TX, USA
05:41.42Micc_Trying to think of hosted asterisk companies that might be in the area.
05:41.51gamednaah, thanks
05:42.10Micc_vitelity might have something like that, but I don't think its scalable like EC2, but I don't think you would want to do that even if you could.
05:42.28Micc_an infinitely scalable asterisk box would have deminishing returns.
05:42.42gamednatrue
05:42.53gamednabut finitely scaleable may have some advantages
05:43.09Micc_TX is a good location, its a major hub.
05:43.20gamednayea, too bad im in san antonio and not dallas
05:43.40gamednabut that is only a few hrs away
05:43.53Micc_yeah, you could still host in dallas and be good probably.
05:44.01gamednayeap
05:44.15Micc_What exactly are you looking to do with it that you think you need such scalability?
05:44.24gamednamostly experiment
05:44.53gamednabut im looking at hosted voice apps
05:45.01gamednanot pbx stuff
05:46.04gamednaanother option is to just buy a few servers in key datacenters and run Vsphere / Esxi
05:46.19gamednaXen, or something else
05:46.30gamednai am just tired of dealing w/ hardware.
05:46.43Micc_depending on what your doing, virtualization can be a problem for time sensative data.
05:47.02gamednai have been using VMware in one form or another since its inception
05:47.18gamednayou are right though
05:48.27gamednaright now im facinated with virtualized asterisk
05:48.44gamednaand what i can actually do with it
05:48.57gamednafrom and application standpoint
05:50.07shamelessn00bwe are running asterisk primarily for IVR
05:50.43shamelessn00bits quite easily managable really
05:51.08Micc_shamelessn00b, virtualized?
05:51.11*** join/#asterisk AliRezaTaleghani (~AliRezaTa@unaffiliated/AliRezaTaleghani)
05:52.11Micc_Most of the time we found virtualized asterisk was fine, but there were some weird things that happened every once in a while that we couldn't explain. Haven't had any of those issues since moving to a dedicated server.
05:52.38Micc_We tried two different hosting companies with different virtualization platforms, both with the same results.
05:52.50Micc_one was xen and one was virtuoso I think.
05:54.36gamednaever use ESXi?
05:54.45gamednai have found it to be very stable
05:55.43Micc_No, but I have read about it. Thats the vmware commercial product, right?
05:55.45gamednashamelessn00b: are you running it virtualized? what provider do you use?
05:56.00gamednayes, but you can use it for free
05:56.24Micc_Is it a trial? I think I remember, its the management peice that costs money.
05:56.30gamednahttp://www.vmware.com/products/vsphere-hypervisor/index.html
05:56.32gamednano
05:57.11gamednaits an ISO that you install on hardware, and it completely reformats and takes over as a baremetal hypervisor
05:57.25gamednayou then need to use their VirtualCenter to manage the VM's running
05:57.38gamednathe trick is that you are only allowed to connect to one ESXi instance at a time
05:57.46gamednaand cant manage the whole bunch from a central location
05:57.54gamednathat is what you need to pay for, the VSphere
05:58.08gamednayou can run 10 ESXi servers, but you will need to manage them seperately
05:58.16gamednalogout of one, and login to the next
05:58.16gamednaetc
05:58.37gamednabut... there are API's that you can use to manage the machines from the command line
05:58.48gamednayou can write your own scripts.
05:58.54ChannelZBORED
05:59.06gamednaw/o vsphere you loose the ability to migrate VMS's automagically, etc...
05:59.13gamednabut in general i have not needed that
05:59.29gamedna<<< Juggles for ChannelZ
06:00.09gamednaChannelZ: better?
06:02.15Micc_gamedna, right thats what I call the management piece.
06:02.56Micc_I did look at that before, and I really liked the looks of it, but I would want to buy that management piece so I can migrate vms and stuff.
06:03.00gamednaIMHO, if you are managing  < 20 ESXi boxes.. you dont really need vsphere
06:03.30Micc_yeah I should try it first I guess.
06:03.32gamednaMicc_:  you can do it, but you need to write a few scripts... not that hard acutally
06:03.49gamednai have 4 ESXi boxes here in my sandbox at home
06:04.07gamednasome powerful, some not
06:04.12gamednai move VM's all the time
06:04.18gamednajust have to do it from linux
06:04.20Micc_I might have to try that on our next machine.
06:04.24gamednaanother tip...
06:04.30gamednaif you decide to go ESXI
06:04.39gamednaalways have at least ONE windows XP or Win7 VM
06:04.44Micc_I'd like to run a couple linux and one windows server.
06:04.49gamednawith the management software on there
06:05.17gamedna(i think linux works too)
06:05.26Micc_can I run the management software on windows server 2k8?
06:05.29gamednayes
06:05.34gamednai believe so
06:05.48gamednathe only drawback is that you cant manage that particular VM
06:05.50Micc_can the management OS be running in VM too?
06:05.57gamednayes...
06:06.21Micc_can't manage it, what do you mean?
06:06.23gamednai have a 512MB /  8GB VM that runs XP for the management OS
06:06.40gamednawell,  cant really shutdown an OS that you are running on
06:06.41gamednaright?
06:06.47drmessanoSo, I can run the VM management in a VM that I manage with the VM management?
06:06.52drmessanoFAR TEH HELL OUT
06:06.59gamedna;)
06:07.14gamednai do it all the time
06:07.25gamednaSince i am on MAC, i have no other choice
06:07.36gamednacant run the tools on mac yet, and the web stuff just blows IMHO
06:07.36drmessanoI hear that all the time
06:07.48Micc_I thought you didn't need to run an OS to host the other OSs?
06:07.49drmessano"I am on a MAC, I have no other choice"
06:08.05gamednadrmessano: dont reboot, be-root.
06:08.11drmessanolol
06:08.28gamednaMicc_: you dont...
06:08.39gamednayou can install ESXi
06:08.43gamednaon 10 machines
06:08.45*** join/#asterisk nova911 (~Adium@115.118.151.80)
06:08.49Micc_but you have to run the management software at all times to keep the other OSs up?
06:08.55gamednaand run the management software on a seperate computer
06:09.00gamednano
06:09.05gamednanot at all
06:09.19gamednaim just giving you the tip for convenience
06:09.36gamednahaving a small XP vm with the tools on there makes it super easy
06:09.41Micc_but you can't shut it down, why?
06:09.49gamednayou cant shut it down from ITSELF
06:10.01gamednaif you are logged into that VM, you cant shut yourself down
06:10.02drmessanoAn Egg can't lay a chicken
06:10.05Micc_oh, you mean the management tools allows you to shut down the other VMs.
06:10.09gamednafrom the MGT console
06:10.12gamednaright
06:10.39Micc_ok, got it. I would want my VMs always up though probably, but I get it now.
06:10.50gamednahere is an example
06:10.57gamednasay you got new hardware and you wanted to migrate everything
06:10.58Micc_So the management tools are free too?
06:11.09drmessano....
06:11.20gamednaif you were logged into that VM MGT OS, you could do all the other OS's except the MGT OS
06:11.27gamednaall you do then, is logout
06:11.30gamednaand use it on another desktop
06:11.37gamednayes, mgt tools are free
06:11.41gamednait comes w/ it
06:11.58gamednayou can do iSCSI
06:12.03gamednaNAS
06:12.03gamednaetc
06:12.05gamednaall works
06:12.19drmessanoWhat about iNAS ?
06:12.28Micc_Thats some good shit.
06:12.30gamednanope, but it has SNAS
06:12.37gamednaand PIZAZ
06:12.42drmessanoWhat about iCUP?
06:12.51gamednapervert
06:12.54gamednaj/k
06:13.12Micc_I might use that for one of my consulting gigs. They need some in house servers for a 30 person office. I think one server with 3 or 4 VMs might do the trick.
06:13.28drmessanoYou're the one who stated "I scuzzy"
06:13.45gamednayes, got me again, i did.
06:13.48Kyoshsup game
06:13.55drmessanoSup Yoshi
06:14.09gamednaMicc_: one word of caution, be sure to read the hardware requirements.. ESXi is slightly finiky about what hardware it runs on
06:14.11Kyoshpeers at the doc
06:14.21drmessanoSlightly?
06:14.25gamednasupports all major "server"  class machines, but white boxes are hit / miss
06:14.38Micc_gamedna, I was thinking a supermicro box.
06:14.42gamednathere is a website that is dedicated to listing all the white box machines that esxi supports
06:14.46gamednashould be fine w/ supermicro
06:14.53Micc_dual quad core or dual dual core.
06:14.57gamednai have an older Dell SC400 P4 box, and it runs fine there
06:14.57drmessanoESXi bitches unless you have a box with hardware virtualization and 2GB RAM minimum
06:15.10gamednacorrect
06:15.15drmessanoI know it is
06:15.22Micc_of course.
06:15.22Kyoshhe is the doc
06:15.34gamednabut 2gb is not enough
06:15.38gamednareally go for 4 or 8gb of ram
06:15.39gamednamin

08:56.13henkso i'm almost good now :-/ is there a definitive reference on what formats, bitrates, whatever asterisk actually _likes_ in soundfiles?
08:56.57tzafrir_laptopWAV is a rather simple container format. Look at the wikipedia entry for ".wav" .

09:20.28henkasterisk tries to deduce the file format from the extension right?
09:21.21ChannelZSort of;  It tries to find the best possible file to use based on the channel codec, and looks for the file with various extensions as a result
09:21.44henkok, what channel codec(s) should i use/allow?
09:21.48ChannelZit assumes the extension actually matches the content though
09:22.14ChannelZDepends on your needs, but ulaw/alaw at least
09:22.50ChannelZ* will transcode when it can if for instance the channel is gsm but the only available format is wav or ulaw or whatnot
09:23.54ChannelZwhile a call is going you can do 'sip show channels' and it should list the codec being used
09:25.31henkok, i'm on ulaw, was on alaw, both have problems...

I figured out that when I want to buy such cards I don't only need to buy the card itself, but also some modules, is that true?

11:13.01SiNGLerm0t3jl: user will use analog or VoIP phones?
11:13.58SiNGLerand your state lines are PRI or BRI, I guess BRI, because you have only 15 users
11:14.30doolittleworkif a customer does not want to upgrade to asterisk on the fly because of cost, it is always better to link it to the old system then fade it out as money becomes available

11:17.06doolittleworkUQlev: the cost of the phones is what scares the customers off
11:17.22m0t3jlSiNGLer, PRI is ISDN? If yes, then we have BRI ;)
11:18.05SiNGLerPRI and BRI are basically ISDNs. PRI is E1 in Europe (30 channels), BRI - 2 channels
11:18.44doolittleworksawgood: use pri, bri to link to system
11:18.53m0t3jlSiNGLer, oh, then I think it's BRI, we have 4 lines (cables) as far as I know
11:19.08UQlevm0t3jl: changing traditional telephone to VoIP phone will not give your users any additional comfort or benefits

11:24.30SiNGLerI can say only about Sangoma cards, because I work with them (but never used FXO/FXS cards, only digital). You need a card, and module to that card, depends what you need FXO, or FXS modules. one module can support a few lines, don't remember correctly.

11:34.04m0t3jlUQlev, I don't
11:34.32SiNGLerm0t3jl: take a look at sangoma's A400 and/or A200. One module is 2 lines. you'll need 2 modules for analog and 8 modules for users.
11:34.42m0t3jlUQlev, it's just that it's impossible to repair the old PBX, so we're switching to Asterisk
11:35.10m0t3jlSiNGLer, so there's not place for 8 modules, but only 4 ;)
11:35.37SiNGLerm0t3jl: you need expansion card, see pictures
11:35.59UQlevm0t3jl: those zap cards will cost you more than local PBX
11:36.15m0t3jlSiNGLer, so there's a baseboard, to which I connect daughter cards, and then I have the modules? ;)
11:36.56SiNGLerwhere is base card, to which you connect modules, if you need more, you connect daughter card. It's cheaper than buying additional card
11:37.20SiNGLerand cards are synced this way
11:37.39m0t3jlSiNGLer, I was thinking that way

11:39.30SiNGLerI worked with Audiocodes devices, Can't say about others
11:39.41SiNGLerIt depends on config

11:43.56m0t3jlSiNGLer, I tried that as well, but it did not work either. There was some error that Asterisk is not able to recognize the image data ;)

12:27.50joobieaka they cant forward
12:27.53joobietheir shit is off the air
12:28.12joobieis there some failure mechanism that can be used in ISDN to revert the numbes to another trunk.. something in the industry as a standard for this?
12:28.17WIMPyjoobie: If your telco goes down, your screwd, unconditionally.
12:28.22joobieif they are down, i cant ring them to ask them to forward the numbers
12:28.33joobieu serious? there's NO failover mechanism in ISDN?
12:28.40joobiefor example in IP, there is BGP
12:28.43WIMPyThere is
12:28.49joobiewher eyou can setup a BGP relationshp with another isp
12:28.50m0t3jlSiNGLer, that's how I found out about the ISDN line ;) Totally it's 5 FXO, 4 EuroISDN numbers and 16 office phones...
12:28.55WIMPyBut there is not fail over for an entire telco.
12:28.55joobieand then route the same ip to their equipment
12:29.14joobieWIMPy, not an entire telco, just my ISDN circuit with the numbers that are associated to it
12:29.36WIMPyjoobie: Then it's back to my first answer: Get a 2nd line.
12:29.47SiNGLerm0t3jl: how many ISDN lines do you have? 4 numbers can be on one or 2 lines
12:30.00joobieWIMPy, then it's back to my 2nd comment - the telco is down and they cant forward when they are down

12:30.36m0t3jlSiNGLer, by the looks of the bill it seems like one line
12:30.53WIMPyjoobie: Now what is your question? Is it about a line being down or a telco being down?
12:31.11joobieWIMPy, i have numbers assigned to my ISDN from my telco
12:31.21joobieif my telco goes down, how can i make those numbers accessible
12:31.29joobie.. if they cant forward because their systmes are down
12:31.41joobie.. with IP, if this happened, BGP would handle this and route the same IP over a different route
12:31.57joobiemy question is, is there s similar thing i can get the telco to setup which will be able to route the numbers over a different trunk
12:32.05joobieis there a "standard" to handle this type of siutaiton
12:32.07WIMPyYou get a 2nd line with the same numbers.
12:32.24joobieand you can do that with 2 providers?
12:32.29WIMPyAnd yes you can also use forwarding, as I already wrote.
12:32.29joobiehow so .. what technology is it called?
12:32.41joobieforwarding i cannot do if the telco is down
12:32.50joobieive had this situation where my telco had a complete outage in their NOC
12:32.57WIMPyForwarding would work with a different telco.
12:33.00joobiethey couldnt forward numbers, so the numbers just went to a busy tone
12:33.19WIMPyYou do the forwarding before the line goes down.
12:33.24joobiebut if telco#1 went down, whom owns the numbers, forwarding wouldnt wokr?!?
12:33.27m0t3jlSiNGLer, do you know if it's possible to have that numbers transfered? Like moving all the FXO numbers to ISDN or vice versa?
12:33.41joobiei'm talking about unscheduled outages
12:33.52m0t3jlSiNGLer, I don't quiet like the idea of using two technologies...
12:33.59joobiedood
12:34.02WIMPym0t3jl: That would sound like a sensible idea.
12:34.03joobieis there something like BGP
12:34.07joobiefor ISDN indials?
12:34.09WIMPyjoobie: YES!
12:34.12joobieit sounds like there isnt from what you're saying
12:34.16joobieforwarding is NOT BGP liek
12:34.23joobieif the telco #1 drops, so does the forwarding
12:34.26joobiewhat dont you get about that?
12:34.33WIMPyYou setup forwarding in case of failure, just like in case of busy.
12:34.47joobiewhat is that called
12:34.51joobie"forwarding in csae of failure"
12:34.55WIMPyYou still don't seem to know what your question is.
12:34.57joobieis there a proper industyr term for this?
12:35.18joobiei know my question, you don't understand
12:35.25joobieyou're going aroudn in circles
12:35.26WIMPyYes, but it doesn't spring to mind ATM.
12:35.27SiNGLerm0t3jl: not sure how it is in your country, but it is possible
12:35.30joobieand im getting pissed
12:35.37joobiefuk
12:35.39joobiethat term
12:35.40joobieis what i need
12:35.55WIMPyAsk someone else, please.

12:38.03SiNGLerblame the progress :P
12:38.05m0t3jlSiNGLer, why would he buy an ISDN line if he had already 5 FXOs ;)
12:38.41SiNGLerto use more numbers on one line? to save on wires? because ISDN = 2 analogs
12:38.45WIMPym0t3jl: Better ask the other way round. Then the answer is probably: Because of the old PBX.
12:38.50SiNGLermaybe it was cheper
12:38.52SiNGLer*cheaper
12:38.56m0t3jlSiNGLer, I know, but we presently still use only one of the numbers :D

12:39.51m0t3jlSiNGLer, I'm now looking on some of the prices they have for ISDN cards. Do I get it right that on one of the ports I get two numbers?
12:40.00joobiehey WIMPy that's a good site
12:40.33WIMPym0t3jl: Usually you can get up to 10 or alternatively a DDI block.
12:40.41SiNGLerm0t3jl: what exactly do you look at? one ISDN line can have 2 calls at one time. Numbers can be much more
12:41.23[TK]D-FenderBRI = 2 channels.
12:41.29WIMPyAnd that's two active calls, BTW.
12:42.04m0t3jlWIMPy, oh, so it's like that. Maybe we have one line with four numbers, but only 2 channels.
12:42.36WIMPyAbsolutely possible.
12:42.54m0t3jlBut when there are four ports on an ISDN card, I could be having 8 channels, therefore 8 simultaneous calls, right?
12:43.12WIMPyright
12:43.31m0t3jlThat's what I call clever ;)
12:43.33SiNGLerdepends on card, sangoma's A500 have Y cable, su you can connect 2 BRI's to one port
12:44.02SiNGLerA500 use jack with 8 pins, BRI need only 4 :)
12:44.25SiNGLerI mean socket RJ-11 - 4 pins, RJ-45 - 8
12:44.26WIMPyI'd prefer to call that two ports on one socket.
12:44.37SiNGLeragreed
12:46.30m0t3jlBy the looks of it I'd be more happier if they could take the one number we use from the ISDN and make it an analogue FXO ;)
12:46.57m0t3jlCause the cards are cheaper and I could use the same card and daughter card I would use for the office phones...
12:47.38WIMPyErr, no. BRI cards cost next to nothing. And you have a lot less trouble.
12:47.40SiNGLerBut then you will not be able to receive multiple calls on one number
12:48.02m0t3jlWIMPy, next to nothing?
12:48.05WIMPyAnd are much more flexible, right.
12:48.05SiNGLermaybe it was a reason for ISDN?
12:48.23m0t3jlWIMPy, here the A400E costs 8K CZK, the A500 costs 10K CZK ;)

12:51.07WIMPyI'm pretty sure, you can. Just go for a normal one, not one that has voice applications printed on the package.
12:51.22m0t3jlWIMPy, what is a normal one?
12:51.50m0t3jlSiNGLer, how much is that E500 you were talking about worth?

13:05.45m0t3jlSiNGLer, why does it have 3 ports, when the modules are 2 port? ;)
13:06.24SiNGLerbecause there are cables which split, and you can connect 2 port on one socket
13:06.42SiNGLerwe discussed this earlier
13:07.05m0t3jlSiNGLer, I know you talked about it, but I did not realize it

13:29.27ruyoThinking on trying that instead of mISDN...
13:30.15sawgoodI have a situation/need to solve a concern for an Asterisk 1.6.x box:  I have a group of 4 SIP phones ... which all need to 'act' as one single extension (not as a ring group) ... is this even possible?
13:30.57[TK]D-Fendersawgood: What is the functional difference?
13:31.31ruyoSince a SIP account is associated to an IP address I don't think it's possible to use the same account on 4.
13:31.34sawgoodmight be symantics ... but ... call one number (four phones ring) because any work at any of the four phones all do the same job
13:31.57sawgoodany worker I mean at any of the 4 phones all do the same job
13:32.02[TK]D-Fendersawgood: How does a "ring group" (shit term) not do that?
13:32.14ruyo601,1,Dial(SIP/601&SIP/602&SIP/603) doesn't do the trick?
13:32.30sawgoodwell, if a VM is left for a ring group can it be left on all four phones at once?
13:32.35[TK]D-Fendersawgood: "make 4 phones ring where only 1 might be expected for a similar action" <- sounds the same to me
13:33.07[TK]D-Fendersawgood: You don't leave VM on a PHONE.  VM is in ASTERISK, and * can inform whatever phones about whatever mailboxes you want
13:33.24ruyoYou can use the same mailbox=xxx@xxx for them.
13:33.30sawgoodgood point ...
13:34.02sawgoodwell, this leads me to another sub-variable ... which I'll leave off for the moment ...

13:35.11sawgoodThe client wants the four phones in the 'staff A room' to all ring anytime someone needs help from the 'staff a people' ...
13:35.33sawgoodsometimes, one phone will ring and the worker is not at their desk, but the other 3 staff members are (but their phone did not ring)
13:35.55sawgoodI call it lazy worker not picking up a known call for them, but they say, well I did not hear my phone ring
13:36.11jamkoThen create an extension that they can dial when they want all phones to ring.
13:36.55ruyoYes, like and extension that represents the whole room.
13:36.59ruyoOr a queue.
13:37.18sawgoodSo, let me ask this sub-variable ... (if the four phones are extensions 101,102,103, and 104) and I have a ring group of x400 (which calls all four phones)

14:04.15[TK]D-Fender_structz: You are showing us NOTHING
14:04.43WIMPyInteresting. I can only get the wcb4xxp module to work when loading (and unloading) hfcmulti first.
14:05.08cherva[TK]D-Fender, ok I have 2 trunks, named Viki and ZzZ, when I call Viki in the logs I get this http://pastebin.org/475547 .. why there is SIP/ZzZ not SIP/Viki there ? except this everything is ok the extensions specified for Trunk Viki are ringing when I call this trunk.........
14:05.32_structz[TK]D-Fender, I have a number(6298) on the incoming context when the call is placed from another sip number(on the same server, and different servers) works properly, but when is a incoming call from E1 goes to Timeout (sip numbers on a server E1 on another, comunication between=SIP)
14:05.52[TK]D-Fendercherva: because that is the peer it matched
14:06.34[TK]D-Fendercherva: Which is probably because you set "insecure=port,invite" for them and it picks the FIRST because it doesn't need to CHALLENGE them
14:06.51ruyoWIMPy, wcb4xxp is the new module to use BRI with DAHDI?
14:07.05[TK]D-Fender_structz: Don't give us a story, show us the FAILED CALL AND CONFIGS
14:07.46cherva[TK]D-Fender, is this a problem ? and what should be the insecure part to show me the right trunk names ?
14:07.53WIMPyruyo: Yes. Well, not that new.
14:08.21ruyoWIMPy, yeah, as new as dahdi. How is it working out for you?
14:08.48ruyoBecause mISDN is giving me an headache.
14:09.02ruyoI can't get regular PTP to function correctly.
14:09.32WIMPyruyo: Well with a patch from issue 17694 you can get hfc4/8s cards to work in NT mode.
14:10.13WIMPyruyo: Forget mISDN, at least the old one. It has been abandoned more than two years ago.
14:10.23[TK]D-Fendercherva: because it ISN'T checking it matches the FIRST peer that has the same IP <-
14:10.27WIMPyAt the moment I'd still recomment mISDN2 with LCR.
14:10.50ruyoWIMPy, yeah, I'm trying to get that one up now.
14:11.12ruyoI beleive I need to compile a newer kernel though.
14:11.25cherva[TK]D-Fender, so there is no problem ?
14:11.28ruyo(Debian Lenny)
14:11.30WIMPyWith dahdi I have two issues ATM: The first that I need to use mISDN befor dahdi will recognize the card and the other that it won;t end a call if the line goes down.
14:11.47_structz[TK]D-Fender, http://pastebin.com/3YgneKKS
14:12.20WIMPyruyo: Use a current kernel and use a git version of LCR.
14:12.24ruyoWIMPy, maybe mISDN is blocking the resources, no?

14:14.08[TK]D-Fendercherva: that is how it works.  You want it to do something else, make sure they auth instead of "insecure".  If you can't then change what else you log to separate them easier.  Or update your CDR's after the fact.  Or whatever

14:16.37[TK]D-FenderCAN*
14:16.40WIMPytzafrir_laptop: the wcb4xxp module won't recognize the card unless I modprobe hfcmulti;rmmod hfcmulti first.

14:17.10tzafrir_laptopWIMPy, that's a bug in the module. What card is it, exactly?

15:29.45flambothe card i was pointed to was the Digium te122
15:29.56Qwellwhat is FRI?
15:30.50flambomaybe it's a UK/ european standard,,, PRI or a FRI ISDN line. is 32 and 16 channel ISDN
15:30.53flamborepectively.
15:31.33flamboso we're just going with the 16 channel line, as we don't imagine receiving more than 8 calls at once (i'm hedging a little in assuming that 1 call requires 2 channels, just in case; )
15:31.44WIMPyflambo: For data connections I'd look for an old NAS.
15:31.56flamboan old NAS?
15:32.05QwellIf you're doing data stuff, Asterisk is really the wrong thing to use..
15:32.39WIMPyflambo: Network Access Server
15:32.45doolittleworkhi there is there a way to assign a unique identifier to a recording filename
15:32.56doolittleworknever mind dum question
15:33.06[TK]D-Fenderdoolittlework: You pick the name.  Increment a number or something
15:33.11flambothe situation is that shops around the contry use a stock dispensary computer installed at each location that dials up with a modem to wholesalers, in this case my client, we just have to plug in a server, how does a NAS help here?
15:33.39flamboWIMPy: oh, not network attached storage?
15:34.18WIMPyflambo: Like Cisco AS or Lucent Max
15:34.31flambowe're just going to put some python code on the back of the dial-up data connections that receives the order transmissions and stuffs the decoded orders into mysql
15:34.36doolittlework[TK]D-Fender: was hoping u show up, do yo know of a way where i can send text to the screen of eyebeam whiles on a call or just before a call starts?
15:35.02WIMPyflambo: Pre IP?
15:35.15[TK]D-Fenderdoolittlework: Maybe you should read their admin guide or something <-
15:35.16flamboPre IP?
15:35.33doolittleworkta thanx that a start
15:35.47WIMPyflambo: From times before the invention of IP?
15:36.09flamboWIMPy: you mean using some kind of serial protocol or something, i honestly don't know.
15:36.48flamboWIMPy: in this case we're just leasing a server from a hsoting company and sticking in the ISDN PCI card,, UPC are connecting the ISDN line into the Data Centre,
15:37.04WIMPyflambo: That could make a big difference. Other question is if they use modem or ISDN?
15:37.25flamboit's all been talked through, just wondering if that card is a good choice,, and what kind of system we can use to connect of the back such as asterisk? or should i look into some kind of modem library?
15:37.47flambosomething that provides an interface to python for the ip stack on the back of the modem or something.
15:37.52WIMPyDepends on your needs.
15:38.04WIMPySo is it IP?
15:38.18flambook, so you're saying i need to know more about the type of dial-up connection,, what are the possabilities? i think it is IP

16:43.06anonymouz666and then make a modem v92 to work passing-through an Asterisk box integrated with Siemens
16:43.53WIMPyPassthru is something entirely different.

16:44.36anonymouz666but still doesn't work
16:45.10WIMPyYou can't get the modem to connect via Asterisk?
16:45.21anonymouz666it connects and it stops.

16:45.45anonymouz666you can't issue any settings
16:46.14anonymouz666PSTN -> E1 -> Asterisk -> E1 -> Siemens PBX -> modem
16:46.15WIMPy?
16:47.10WIMPyHmm. I can't see why Asterisk should do anything bad in there. What happens exactely?
16:48.10anonymouz666I think the problem is due Echo Cancellation in DAHDI.
16:48.48flamboWIMPy: ok so i'm confused, we will have an ISDN line going to our server in the data Centre, the digium te122 card is in the server and can receive incoming calls from modems in other locations? is this not the case?
16:49.17anonymouz666right now, I am looking for a way to port the DAHDI to disable the echocan from DIALPLAN

16:50.10WIMPyflambo: It can receive calls, yes. But it cannot terminate them. It's not a modem.
16:50.58flamboWIMPy: terminate you mean be the end point of a telephone call?
16:51.49flamboWIMPy: i think this is where my understanding lacks,, i'm just a part time code monkey and project manager.
16:51.53WIMPyflambo: You need a modem on your end. Or some software modem, but I don't know what the capabilities of iaxmodem are. Mind you fax is a lot easier than normal modem.
16:52.02WIMPyflambo: Yes.
16:55.17flamboWIMPy: well, the te122 card is PCI card in the server, and then we would use a software library that implements the modem stack or to control the calls by code ourselves? does this cover what you're meaning here?

18:39.15tzangergot a friend with crazy-ass echo using MG2, and he's blaming MG2 for his woes, but I always found MG2 to be pretty good, at least of FXS. calling the local milliwatt number says -12dB and that seems awfully damn low to me
18:39.37anonymouz666MG2 is good, OSLEC is better
18:39.38tzangerI'd be happy with -3 to -4dB but -12?  Stuff I'm seeing on the intertubes is saying -5.5 and even -8.5dB as what the telco will call acceptable
18:39.50tzangeranonymouz666: yeah OSLEC's next
18:39.52tzafrir_laptoptzanger, is that really FXS there?

18:49.51[TK]D-Fender[14:35]<tzanger>[TK]D-Fender: what's the rule of thumb for acceptable path loss on a typical POTS line? is it as high as 5.5dB? <- not a clue :)
18:51.16Naikrovekdoesn't someone, ANYONE, have an uncle or something that works at a phone company that can answer this
18:51.24TheDavidFactoris there a way to know in the dialplan what local IP the call came in on? I thought some the SIP* functions might have it, but didn't find anything. Using asterisk 1.6.2.x
18:51.56[TK]D-FenderTheDavidFactor: They do.
18:52.29tzangertzafrir_laptop: no, it's not that it's MG2's fault, it's that MG2 isn't handling it
18:52.49tzangerbut again, -12dB when calling the local mW number tells me he has a problem in his part68 interface
18:54.02tzangertzafrir_laptop: I'm positive that MG2 will work just fine, but they like to balme software so I'm making them inject a 0dBm signal into the tip+ring with a simulated phone line and measure the waveform at the DAA input pins, and then measure what is sampled
18:54.09tzangersomething's not right and I"m positive it's in their design

20:44.02mmlj4I could do that with a AGI script, dunno if * supports it out of the box
20:44.52xhelioxtitter: Weights and ringinuse=no
20:45.02xhelioxwith call limit (presuming you're using SIP)
20:45.58xhelioxSorry, not weights.. penalties -- same difference though.
20:46.39xhelioxagents with the higher penalty will be tried last.
20:46.41csnookdo I need the centos-digium repo if I'm only doing VoIP?
20:47.25xhelioxYou don't "need" it regardless of what you're using Asterisk for.
20:47.34csnookfigured
20:47.42titterI tried both, and it didn't work ... I have the strat set to ring only, and assigned the penalties as 1-4 ... but if I call the queue as the second caller it rings penality 1 again
20:47.54csnookI just thought it might be some sort of addons for digium hardware
20:48.07xhelioxtitter: I suspect you don't have call limit set properly in sip.conf then.

20:51.03xhelioxfor ringinuse=no to work properly, you have to have call-limit set.

21:17.07mtryfossas I wrote.. tried mixmonitor on the gateway, and it's true
21:17.28mtryfossthe first thing that happens when the call arrives is the monitor, and there's silence

22:09.42jamkoWell I would settle for the origination not being full 48.
22:10.00exothermcjamko: Qwest does toll free origination with t.38, but that is about as good as it gets.
22:10.16exothermc360 Networks has a fairly good foot print that does t.38

22:12.56exothermcthat is surprising.  Typically providers love TF term, and make sure it works.

22:24.37Micc_We've been using Vitelity for years, pretty solid service for TF.
22:24.52Micc_And they have failover DIDs you can set for each TF DID.

22:26.14jamkoYea I have heard Vitality is pretty solid.  I use Voip.MS for the fail over DIDs.  Their management gui is  real nice.  Do you have an e-mail address? I or my partner can send you some information.

22:27.39Micc_jamko, you said you got t.38 working properly yesterday, so did you find a work around for your re-invite bug?
22:27.41xhelioxI've only been using VoIP.ms for a few months, but I'm highly impressed.
22:27.42kfifeVITEL is nice but every now and then the two-bit carrier they farm out to messes up my outbound callerid.
22:27.57kfifeVery infrequent, but it happens.
22:28.02Micc_jamko, I've been playing with T.38 for almost a year now. It drives me crazy some times.
22:28.41Micc_kfife, has that happened recently? I think they may have changed providers.
22:28.51jamkoMIcc_ : yes I had to turn off t.38 reinvite from the provider side, and let my ATA initiate the T.38 re-invite.  It seems a T.38 re-invite from a SIP cluster was causing my problem with Asterisk.

22:29.33Micc_jamko, so set canreinvite=false on the sip peer that is the provider?
22:29.36kfifeMicc_: It's quite hard to tell right?  You would only notice if your called party says: "WTF. why does your callerid say X"
22:29.46exothermckfife: I still can work with that.
22:30.09Micc_kfife, I think I remember seeing that sometimes.
22:30.18kfifeexothermc: Micc_:  Still they're great.  Best in show says me.
22:30.40kfifeMy favorit thing about Vitelity is that they can set OUTBOUND CNAM.
22:30.41Micc_kfife, I think they've changed how they do callerid too, I can't send them 3 digit callerid anymore, but I used to be able to.
22:30.42exothermckfife: who?
22:30.53jamkoMicc: no set canreinvite=yes across the boardm, and tell your provider NOT to issue a reinvite on T.38... Let you sip peer do the initial re-invite.
22:31.15exothermckfife: outbound cnam isn't technically possible.
22:31.45kfifeBe careful what you assert :-).  In other words, called party sees "Karl Fife" or "YourCompanyName" instead of "Chicago, IL"

22:32.22exothermckfife: Oh yI thought you said "send"  It can't be sent, but you can set it, correct.
22:32.49Micc_kfife, that all depends on the cnam lookup provider they are using though. They can't change them all on the fly.
22:33.11kfifeYou send the number, the terminating telco dips against the LIDB entry managed by the originating telco.  Terminating telco pays, originating telco gets paid.
22:33.26exothermcMicc_: Right you can't change it on a per call basis, but it is near realtime.
22:33.26joobiehey guys.. anyone got an idea on how to use the queue system in asterisk, but make the queue member a PSTN telephone number (that's seperate to the asterisk box)
22:33.28jamkokfife: let me elaborate, I have canreinvite=yes in sip.conf for all peers, and then I actually go to my providers website and turn off T.38 reinvite.
22:33.48Micc_exothermc, right and with vitelity it costs 10$ I think or 5$.
22:34.10kfifeMicc_ if the CNAM source is some half-assed google lookup, then yes, it depends.  If the CNAM source is the LIDB, then no.
22:34.15exothermcMicc_: To set names on DIDs?  that doesn't make sense.
22:34.22Micc_kfife, exothermc, I would think that being able to set the cnam on a did you order is a requirement that all providers should be able to do.
22:34.45exothermcMicc_: mostly because they would be stupid not to, yes.
22:35.24Micc_Is there a way to interface with the LIDB directly?
22:35.49exothermcMicc_: You can, but easier to use an aggregator like SNET or TNSi
22:36.17exothermcMicc_: then you can dip directly using SIP, SS7 or SIGTRAN
22:36.21kfifeLIDB is tightly controlled by the ILECS and CLECS because it's a valuable asset.  Vitel has figured out a way to legally obligate the 'keepers' of the LIDB to populate with their records.
22:37.07kfifeWhen you dip the 'real' LIDB it costs money every time, and you pay about 2¢ per dip, and you sign an agreement not to cache.
22:37.33exothermckfife: "obligate"  is wrong, if you actually own DIDs/TNs you are required to have access to set them. and by own I mean there is no one above you.
22:38.04exothermcand if you are paying $0.02/dip you are getting bent over and.....
22:38.07Micc_which means you would have to be a clec to own the dids.

22:44.49kfifeexothermc:  Not bad.  I know a lot of CNAM providers were recently 'chased' (read threatened) out of buisness by upstream providers.
22:44.52Micc_exothermc, what is LRN?

22:45.15flapjacksits a samsung OfficeServ500 connect to my rinoT1 card which is acting like the PSTN for the PBX I can make calls from the samsung out the rhinoT1 and out sip trunk provider
22:45.36exothermcMicc_: If a number is ported from one carrier to another the LRN dip will show what carrier it is actually pointed at now.
22:46.18flapjacksMicc_: I can recive calls to on the samsung they just ring the operator group because no did was seen
22:46.25exothermckfife: Ya not to many upstreams allow you to resell access to the DB.
22:46.30exothermcfor obvious reasons.
22:48.04kfifeexothermc: I wonder if TNSi is in violation of their TOS.  The compensation system is a bit messed up these days, but it was my understanding that the originating LEC was compensated right around one cent for the dip.  It may depend on who you are too--in other words I'm sure AT&T doesn't pay Verizon 1¢--but I
22:48.05exothermckfife: Just to put the cnam stuff in perspective for you.  $0.002 / dip would be a high rate for payout, much less a sell rate.

22:53.16exothermcbut ya if you have someone selling you at $0.02 they are either taking a big cut or getting screwed themselves.
22:53.43kfifeI've talked to the proprietor.  He's getting screwed.
22:54.00kfifeonly slightle less than I am :-)
22:54.04exothermcget a TNSi connection and sell to him.
22:54.21exothermcof course getting them to give you legal rights to do so will be a miracle.
22:54.44exothermcbut you don't have to tell them, and they should never know.
22:55.10kfifeexothermc: LOL
22:55.29Qwellwho actually owns/runs ILDB?
22:55.34QwellLIDB*
22:55.54kfifeQwell: good question
22:56.08exothermca great racket is get your own numbers, then you are paid for the dips, then you just place outbound calls to a source that will dip them, and never connect the calls.  Kinda like printing money.
22:56.36exothermcQwell: It is kinda like who owns/runs DNS?
22:56.54Qwellfair enough
22:57.26exothermcQwell: managed by Telcordia I believe, either that or NEUSTAR.
22:59.14exothermcQwell: but ya being able to access the LIDB I think is kinda like being a root registrar, you need to be certified that you know what you are doing etc.
23:04.12Micc_exothermc, Maybe thats why I get all these calls to all of my customers from DOCTORS NETWORK, but they never connect.
23:06.18Micc_They call someone on my network almost every day, somtimes many different customers in a day. Theres no way they know all these different customers and their DIDs in different rate centers. Its not like they are all grouped together or something.
23:06.34Micc_It really makes me wonder wtf they are doing.
23:07.03Micc_And what really ticks me off is sometimes it makes aastra phones ring forever until each phone is picked up.
23:07.54Micc_which reminds me, I need to call aastra about that. Theres got to be something they can do in the mean time until asterisk can fx it the right way.
23:13.40exothermcMicc_: Ya that isn't it, because if someone picks up then their will be a duration no matter how small and whoever would just be going backwards.
23:14.00kfifeMicc_: can't you just have asterisk ring them for x seconds then fall through to the next priority (for example answer, and play them monkeys, or "Hang the hell up" message :-)
23:15.14Micc_kfife, yeah but the did is always different. not always, but it seems to be a pretty big range.
23:15.37kfifeexothermc: Do you know the mechanism by which companies like YouMail (and MNO's
23:15.37kfifeusing their own voicemail system) are able to redirect ALL calls from a ALL
23:15.37kfifesubscribers to *just one* voicemail DID, yet determine WHICH subscriber did
23:15.37kfifethe redirection?
23:17.08kfifeMicc_: Do you have hundreds of DID's or are you sending just ANY sip call to your phone?
23:17.21exothermckfife: I'm not sure I get what you are saying, but if you mean the "new VM provider" be able to tell which voicemailbox and original calling party?
23:17.52*** join/#asterisk roe (~roe___@unaffiliated/roe)
23:18.33kfifeFor example T-Mobile sends ALL unanswered calls from all subscribers to ONE voicemail system access DID number.
23:19.06exothermckfife: Ok ya that is just do to the fact that SS7 has more information built in than SIP does.
23:19.30exothermcSS7 have information about DNIS and ANI, but also billing DNIS and billing ANI.
23:19.40flapjackswould it be the pbx or zaptel config issue that is wiating to send the DID number until after the call is picked up on the zaptel channel
23:20.02Micc_kfife, we have hundreds of customers, so we have hundreds of DIDs.
23:20.24kfifeexothermc: I'm talking ISDN PRI.
23:20.33kfifeexothermc: I had always assumed this was simply done using RDNIS.  In other words, the original calling party's CallerID is passed with the redirected call, (and I assumed) the redirecting subscriber's number was passed via RDNIS--thusly the voicemail system knows to place the call into the voicemail account belonging to the RDNIS value.
23:20.59*** join/#asterisk ManxPower (~manxpower@user-24-236-87-78.knology.net)
23:21.41kfifeIs there a 'normal' way to do this (such as a QSIG call transfer message), or is it more likely a home-spun and carrier-specific message, such as a Q.931 facility message.
23:22.03exothermckfife: I'm not sure you have much control over what is put on the PRI.  I know those things are set, but I would have to look at libpri to see what is exposed.
23:23.12*** join/#asterisk werdan7 (~w7@freenode/staff/wikimedia.werdan7)
23:23.27kfifeexothermc:  I'll just have to debug the PRI channel and redirect the calls to myself so I can see what's visible.  Basically I want to redirect calls to Youmail for their transcription service without using DropBox because doing so obliterates the original CallerID
23:23.32exothermckfife: I'm out of my water on this one, but I know on ss7 you have access to 4 number fields.
23:24.32kfifeexothermc: I see.  So big boys like MNO's have better-than-PRI type connections enabling them to do telephone voo-doo that may be outside of scope for a lowly PRI group.
23:25.07exothermckfife: you can just do the transcription via wav file and http service, probably going to get better results.
23:25.16ManxPowerI just arrived.  What specifically do you need to do?
23:25.40kfifeexothermc: you mean for example via the YouMail API?
23:25.50exothermckfife: Correct, but with that "may be" caveat.  I'm pretty new to PRIs.
23:26.16exothermckfife: I didn't know youmail allowed wav file transcription.
23:26.44kfifeexothermc: The idea is to give smartphone users access to all features of the well-implemented youmail apps--including from our terrestrial lines.
23:26.48Micc_I'm lookin at the cdrs for all my customers and this DOCTORS GROUP or DOCTORS NETWORK comes up with disposition answered but generally always about 3-6 seconds in billsec. The callerID numbers they call from are varied but looks like within the same block maybe.
23:26.53exothermckfife: I'm saying their are services out there that will allow you to send them a wav file via http API call and get back text.
23:27.03ManxPowerIt is trivial to set your own callerid on a PRI (or SIP) if your carrier allows you to.  (many do)
23:27.23ManxPowerSpecifically the Caller*ID NUMBER.  Name can also be sent to the telco, but they will always ignore it.
23:27.36Slugs_Question about asterisk call queues, if all agents are busy in a queue, it says 'your call cannot be connected at this time' instead of going to the mailbox that was setup.
23:27.44exothermcManxPower: Ya you are missing the point.
23:27.57ManxPowerexothermc, I did ask for details.  Nobody provided any.
23:28.03exothermcManxPower: if you pass just the CLI then the service won't know which VM box to attach it too.
23:28.16kfifeexothermc:  Such a service may not have the well-implemented smartphone apps.  YouMail does transcription via DropBox (email), but like I said they fu¢k up the callerid.
23:28.50ManxPowerexothermc, So you want to pass DNID to the destination telephone number?
23:28.52exothermckfife: You sure that you are passing out the correct caller ID?
23:29.09ManxPowerDo you need to know the callerid info of the caller at all?
23:29.11kfifeexothermc: I'll look into their API, but redirecting the call with their RDNIS like VOO-DOO is the simplest, most robust solution.
23:29.21exothermcManxPower:   Well there is the key, you need to pass both the DNIS and the billing DNIS.
23:29.45ManxPowerexothermc, that does make it more complicated 8-)
23:30.09exothermcManxPower: They use one to see what number is actually sending to them (for the correct voicemail box) then they use the other to put on the mail to say who the call actually originated from.
23:30.18kfifeexothermc: Yes.  We've redirected the calls to ourselves, and it's showing up right.  My bet is on QSIG redirect
23:30.53ManxPowerexothermc, *nod*  Maybe 2BCT is something that should be investigated.

23:34.36Micc_kfife, http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/RDNIS talks about RGN and using it to know which voicemail box to use but says it only works on a PRI.

23:39.57hardwirecheck your context and queue flags.
23:40.10hardwiremake sure you have your priority numbers in order or 'n'
23:40.20Slugs_sorry to hear that, and ok
23:40.21kfifeMicc_: Right. RDNIS is not specified is SIP.  (BUt it is in SIP-T)
23:40.25hardwiremake sure the PBX at your office isn't saying that vs asterisk

23:40.38Slugs_k
23:40.42kfifeMicc_: Beta-3  Not going to risk my job over it :-)
23:40.51kfifeMicc_: not on a production system
23:42.38Micc_right, I just remember 1.6.0 was super unstable even after final release, it wasn't till about 1.6.0.6 I think it started to get better.
23:43.58Micc_It was about 6-8 months after first release that it was stable enough to run in production.
23:44.58leifmadsenyou can't run any commercial modules at this point either, so you're pretty much limited to development servers at this point unless you don't use G729, Skype, etc...
23:47.11kfifeleifmadsen: Thanks for the tip the other day about 1.8 chanspy
23:47.19leifmadsenkfife: hope it was useful
23:47.21kfifeIs there a backport to 1.6.x
23:47.43kfifeleifmadsen: ^^ ?
23:47.54leifmadsenhave you created it? :)
23:48.10leifmadsenit's probably not that difficult unless it uses something crazy
23:48.21leifmadsenjust do a diff between the files and find the feature you want
23:48.25leifmadsenmight not be very difficult
23:48.27kfifeleifmadsen: lol.  I'm not technically there yet.  One day I will be.
23:48.44kfifeleifmadsen: good idea.
23:48.51Micc_I've never used chanspy.
23:49.19Micc_It sounds like a lot of fun, but just never needed it.
23:49.47kfifeleifmadsen: If there's no crazy changes, would it be as simple as copying the app_chanspy.c from the 1.8 source tree to the 1.6.2.x tree?
23:49.56leifmadsenkfife: it might be :)
23:50.48kfifeleifmadsen: Please evaluate this statement: "If it works for a handful of test calls, it probably wont cause asterisk to segfault. " :-)
