similar to: Problem with setting ringtones on Cisco 7960 phone.

I'm trying to change the ring tone on my 7960 from the dialplan. I've tried the example on the wiki but it doesn't seem to work. Something like: exten => 3010,1,SetVar(ALERT_INFO=<Bellcore-dr1>) ; selects Ringer exten => 3010,2,Dial(SIP/3010,15) I'm not sure what the Bellcore-dr1 ringer is supposed to be. I've tried replacing ALERT_INFO with another ring tone

Hi Can anyone with distinctive ring on their 7960's possibly post how they've got it to work? I understand that the ALERT_INFO variable is involved but using the examples for the variable value from the WiKi I'm just getting an error message from the Asterisk concole. Thanks in advance. P

Hi, I'm having trouble setting the ringtone on my Polycom 501. The relevant entry in extensions.conf is: exten => 801,hint,SIP/creative1 exten => 801,1,SetVar(ALERT_INFO="Test") exten => 801,2,Dial(SIP/creative1,20,Ttr) In the sip.cfg: <alertInfo voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.1.value="Test" voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.1.class="13"/> and <TEST

Hi all, Has anyone gotten custom ring tones to work using ALERT_INFO with the Cisco 7940 SIP phone? I've read the wiki, but just can't get this to work. I'm currently using the 7.2 SIP image. Thanks, Chris

Hi All - I'm trying to implement the auto-answer config from the wiki, but the result for me is that the phone just rings as normal. I'm running firmware version 1.4.1 on an IP500. I've added the following to my sip.cfg: <alertInfo voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.2.value="Ring Answer" voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.2.class="4"/> and this to my ipmid.cfg

Greetings, I am trying to implement distinctive ringing on a Cisco 7960. I have tried setting alert_info to chirp1 or chirp2 before dialing the phone, but it has no affect. If you have successfully implemented distinctive ringing on a 7960, I would really appreciate seeing the snipit of code that works. Thanks in advance Bruce Komito High Sierra Networks, Inc. www.servers-r-us.com (775)

Hello, I've got my dialplan configured to do a double ring when a customer service call comes in, and a normal ring when an extension is dialed directly. When a customer service call is transferred, I want to ring to revert back to normal. In the local extension macro, I have the following ; make sure ring is set to default exten => s,n,NoOp(${ALERT_INFO}) exten =>

Hi Everyone, I've been asked to determine which phones our organization should go with. And I've narrowed it down to the Polycom IP500 or the Cisco 7940. From my travels through google, it's hard to find a definitive comparison of the two phones. So I thought I would ask the people that have probably used both. From what I can tell, the only major benefit the Cisco has over the

Hello, I have uploaded a custom ringtone to our SPA-922's for the purpose of sounding like a door bell chime when the doorbell is pressed. I am using __alert_info to set this ringtone. It appears that I can only set the ringtone via alert_info for the ringtones that come from Linksys. Has anyone else seen this issue? I am doing the following: exten => 100,1,SetVar(_ALERT_INFO=doorbell)

CVS Head from 07/07/2005 I'm trying to make an IP-501 auto answer a call. exten => 301,1,SetVar(_ALERT_INFO="Ring_Ans") exten => 301,2,SetVar(ALERT_INFO="Ring_Ans") # Tried both combinations exten => 301,3,Dial(SIP/5001,15) exten => 301,4,Hangup Sip.cfg for Polycom phone <alertInfo voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.2.value="Ring_Ans"

I am wondering if there are any tricks getting the Cisco ATAs to do "distinctive rings" via the ALERT_INFO variable? I have seen some contradictory information in the Wiki, and I tried the example there. I then sniffed the connection between the server and the ATA and didn't see the header sent like it is "supposed" to be. If someone out there has a handle on this and

I am trying to get distinctive ringing going again with these phones, depending on the outside line the call comes in on. I had a working 1.0.x Asterisk setup using: SetVar(ALERT_INFO=<http://127.0.0.1/Bellcore-dr2>) Which used the short quick rings. In Asterisk 1.4, I have tried several things, but I think the correct syntax is: Set(_ALERT_INFO=<http://127.0.0.1/Bellcore-dr2>) But

I am looking for clues on how to configure distinctive ring for a PolyCom SoundPoint 300. Does ALERT_INFO apply? If so, how? Thanks, David Koski david.nospham@kosmosisland.com

(new asterisk user - currently setting up Polycom IP600 phones) Does anyone know if it's possible to make a sip phone instantly pick up on speakerphone when a particular call comes in? Eg so that you can quickly bother someone across the office without making them reach for their phone?

In ipmid.cfg I have: <G3INTERCOM se.rt.10.name="G3INTERCOM" se.rt.4.type="ring-answer" se.rt.4.timeout="1000" se.rt.10.ringer="7"/> In sip.cfg I have: <alertInfo voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.1.value="G3INTERCOM" voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.1.class="10"/> I set up a test extension: exten =>

Hi guys I'm using asterisk 1.4 and going on to Snom phones. I'm trying to add a sip header to make the Snom phone use a different ring tone on one particular incoming number. I have added the following to the dial plan of the incoming context +------+------------------+-------+----------+--------------+-------------------------+ | id | context | exten | priority | app

Hi All I have just upgraded from Asterisk 1.2 to 1.4 and am having trouble with with one of my ATAs not ringing. Basically, when I execute the Dial command, an error occurs: "Got SIP response 400 "In alert-info header: Empty value expected" Now in 1.2, I just issued the following command to overcome this problem: Set(_ALERT_INFO=). Now in 1.4, _ALERT_INFO is deprecated, so I

Hi Everyone, Using Elastix (FreePBX + Asterisk 1.4.2x combination) with Aastra phones, how can one receive distinctive ring tones for INTERNAL calls ONLY? Even though FreePBX Inbound has an option for Alert_INFO but that doesn't work when the call comes into an IVR or Queue. The calls has to go directly to extension for external ringtone to be different. So, I am looking for internal calls

I am trying to have the ring types different for internal and external incoming calls. I have followed the guide on the wiki, the SetVar executes, in extensions.conf I have it as s,1, Yet it doesn't work? When the phone rings, the ring type is the one I chose on the phone, it rings same tone for both when I test. Using Asterisk Stable. Anyone got this working and can

I'm going to be rolling out asterisk at a small office and one requested feature was the ability to have a phone that can be configured so that ringtones can be configured according to the callerid of the caller. Does anyone have Asterisk experience with such a phone? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!!!
