04:20.58PixelAsteriskHi everyone! I'm looking for a company that can provide contracted support to a cluster of Asterisk servers with customised dial plans (Digium support said they couldn't help due to the customisations) - does anyone have any recommendations? I've tried calling the businesses listed on Voip-info without responses yet. Thanks :)

13:36.05n3tWhat happens in a dialplan after using Dial() app? According to https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+13+Application_Dial there is "g" option ("Proceed with dialplan execution at the next priority in the current extension if the destination channel hangs up").
13:36.28n3tIt seems like a common behaviour and in Dial it's an option.
13:37.02n3tDoes it by default jump into "h" extension? After successful dial? After any? Where can I read more about Dial's behaviour?
13:37.44xphereshello, can questions about security and fail2ban be done here?
13:38.23[TK]D-Fendern3t, the default is to end the channel after a bridged call ends.  That's what it does.  Everything extra is in the dial options like "g" you just found
13:39.01xpheressomeone is trying brute force against my asterisk server and fail2ban does not ban it
13:39.09Samotn3t: What are you trying to do? When Dial() executes the dialplan is no longer processed until the Dial() completes and returns a status. In order for Dial() to complete, at least one side has to hangup.

13:55.02n3tSamot: first of all, I'm trying to understand before building production setup. I understand that Dial() completes after hangup. But I can't answer following questions. 1. What if the connection (call?) won't be established in the first place? Does it count as a hangup? 2. Where should I process DIALSTATUS? What is the best practice?
13:55.45n3t> Dialplan execution will continue if no requested channels can be called, or if the timeout expires
13:55.48n3tOh, I see.

13:58.43SamotThis is all in the wiki
13:59.08SamotDIALSTATUS will return a status telling you what happened...
13:59.14SamotA connected/bridged call is "ANSWERED"
14:00.03n3tI mean, where should I log DIALSTATUS? I guess it shouldn't be the next priority in the dialplan (unless using "g" option).
14:01.06n3tShould I just use "g" option? Should I log DIALSTATUS in "h" extension? What If requested channel can't be called?
14:01.25Guggeif you just want to log it, use cdr
14:01.44Guggeif you want to do something with it, either check it right after Dial(), or in the h extension

16:12.06[TK]D-Fender<TECFALL> can you jump major versions of sip firmware on the cisco 7961G? <- yes
16:12.16[TK]D-Fenderthere is no implicit concept of "jump"
16:12.42[TK]D-Fenderit loads what you give it and if the firmware and configs match and the settings  match what your environment demands then it works

16:40.53[TK]D-Fenderyou only touch configs if you tell it to

22:12.41PixelAsteriskHi Samot, the customisations are entirely dial plan/config file/agi changes, however Digium have said they can't provide support for systems with custom dial plans
22:13.20SamotI'm not sure what that means.
22:13.30PixelAsteriskI have 3 asterisk servers load balanced by opensips, I'm purely looking for a company that can provide remote support to log into the asterisk servers and troubleshoot issues when they arise and can log in from time to time to do maintenance/check for any potential problems
22:13.30SamotBy default when you install Asterisk, there is no dialplan.
22:14.39SamotSo basically, you need standard Asterisk support/management.
22:14.49PixelAsteriskI haven't changed any of asterisks base code, all the changes are in extensions.conf, sip.conf, features.conf, etc and we're running the rest of our configuration in realtime
22:15.09SamotOh.
22:15.25PixelAsteriskyes correct, although Digium said they couldn't provide that, which is why I'm looking for "the next best thing" as it were :P
22:16.20SamotGood luck. Real-Time is a sparsely used thing...
22:18.12PixelAsteriskwhy is that? we've got about 60,000 lines of dial plan information across our customers so it makes the most sense for us to manage it within a database, is there a better alternative?
22:18.29PixelAsterisk(this is why we're looking for consulting companies to help manage/advise on this)
22:19.32SamotYeah, I'm not sure why you would need 60K lines of dialplan.
22:20.13PixelAsteriskwe have 5,500 DID's each with their own unique call flow
22:20.44SamotStill don't see the need.
22:22.59PixelAsteriskthere must be some knowledge you have of asterisk that I don't have (which is likely, I'm not an asterisk tech), as far as I knew, you have to have each DID's call flow mapped out for it eg: check if its during this time range, if so dial these extensions, then play this sound, then go to this queue, then go to this voicemail box.
22:23.37PixelAsteriskand it seemed like the most efficient way to do that was to store it in a database where we can give clients easy interfaces to make changes to their respective dial plans without having to directly edit extensions.conf
22:24.09PixelAsteriskand I possibly incorrectly thought the way to read in dial plans from the database is via realtime
22:24.23SamotYes.
22:24.36SamotBut the real question is how often is that database being updated?
22:24.55SamotFollowed by, aren't there other options that could be used.
22:25.19PixelAsteriskit's not updated often, roughly 300 times a day
22:25.49SamotWhy does it have 300 updates a day?
22:25.53SamotNew customers?
22:25.55PixelAsteriskI don't know what those options might be, like I said I don't really know asterisk - always keen to explore better options
22:26.17SamotReal-Time has always lacked in depth documentation and support.
22:26.38SamotIt has it's limitations which require you to use both it and static anyways to get features that you want
22:26.40PixelAsterisknew customers, existing customers porting numbers, customers changing dial plans to reflect changes in their business etc
22:26.52SamotOK, so basically what I do.
22:27.31SamotI'll update dialplan, when needed but you can design hooks, subroutines, etc that can pulled from AstDB, other sources, etc..
22:28.39SamotEven things like FreePBX rely on macros/routines that are used globally.....
22:29.21PixelAsteriskI think that's what we're doing? we have macro's pre-created in extensions.conf, and the data stored in the database is just "macro-x, variable1, variable2, variable3", and the dial plan is essentially created from a collection of macros being called
22:29.29PixelAsteriskif I've understood what you're saying
22:29.48SamotRight but Real-Time isn't really needed for that.
22:29.49PixelAsteriskand I'm guessing AstDB is just whatever database we're running (in this case mysql)
22:30.01SamotNo, Asterisk requires AstDB
22:30.06PixelAsteriskoh ok, that I didn't know
22:30.07SamotEven in static mode.
22:30.46PixelAsteriskso you're saying storing in astdb avoids the need for realtime - is that right?
22:32.03PixelAsteriskand if I'm reading between the lines to my original topic, that might make me eligable to fit within digiums criteria for their support plans?
22:32.12SamotWell, in my experience I've run up to 50K+ users on Asterisk systems + OpenSER and Real-Time was never used.
22:34.44SamotSadly, while what you do is in my wheelhouse (and what I do for others like you)....Real-Time...
22:37.48PixelAsteriskI'm understanding from what you're saying that real-time is a problem, also that there are better alternatives, which is great - that's the kind of information and support we're looking for, but hopefully from this you can see why we're looking for a company that can provide that kind of support and consultancy, otherwise we're rather in the dark here as to what's best practice, and what's problematic
