HI all: I have spent a large amount of time configuring/installing phones connected to Asterisk. Halfway through the process I discovered that my Cisco7960 with 2 7914 expansions was not supported in the SIP protocol. After reverting to SCCP 6.0(4.0) I am now perplexed with the hassle of configuring SCCP to properly work with Asterisk. So far I have gotten the phone to dial and receive calls from the other participating SIP 7.2 phones on the LAN. Obviously this verifies that chan_sccp is correctly installed and running. I have scoured the internet looking for documentation regarding the 7914 call modules with asterisk and turned up nothing. So this is my question.... Does anyone have any kind of documentation regarding 7960 phones with 7914 expansion modules running on AsteriskPBX??? I also have the proper load file for the expansion module... Any Help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks, Jesse Tyler
If you are going to use the 7914 (which yes, unfortunatly isn't supported on SIP, dammit Cisco) you might want to check out http://chan-sccp.sourceforge.net an alternative sccp module for *. Before we switched all our 7960's to SIP we used this and it seemed alot better than the built in one.

Hi Jesse, I would strongly recommend changing over to the SIP image and uisng something like the Flash Operators Panel (www.asternic.org) instead of the 7914's. I experimented with chan_sccp2 a few weeks ago and decided that it wasn't for me right now due to both the very limited support for the 7914 and the lack of robustness of the protocol module. For example configure a speed dial on the 7960 and place a call, then whilst in the call, press the speed dial on the 7960 - Asterisk will die. For a second example take the handset offhook and leave it offhook for a minute or so without dialling and you will find that Asterisk will die. I am hoping to experiment again with the sccp module once it gets a bit more development time under its belt. I found the hardest part of configuring sccp was creating the SEP<MAC>.cnf.xml file and after much searching I found one which has been added to the wiki at http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=SCCP-HOWTO2 Craig ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jesse Tyler" <jtyler@goarctic.com> To: <asterisk-users@lists.digium.com> Sent: Tuesday, September 21, 2004 11:23 PM Subject: [Asterisk-Users] chan_sccp/SEP<mac>.cnf.xml> HI all: > > I have spent a large amount of time configuring/installing phones > connected to Asterisk.

Craig: Thanks very much for the pointer. I suppose a guy could use dual monitors on a Reception PC running Flash Operators Panel. This would work well for my application. Thanks Very much for the info. (SCCP sucks!) Jesse Tyler On 21-Sep-04, at 11:00 AM, Craig Guy wrote:>
