similar to: T1 with Robbed Bit Signaling

I don't want to start the "How many calls can Asterisk handle?" discussion or "How many angels can stand on the point of a pin?" discussion either. But can anyone contribute some practical knowledge of systems that take in channel bank T1s or DS3s from "far away", and process the calls? I am looking for real world, been there, done that, or "check the

All, I have done research on VoIP for some time now. I'm a Cisco certified Network Engineer however Telecom is not my strongest suit. I've been a part of this mailing list for sometime but my delusions of grandeur in migrating our 25 year old phone system to a new platform have been on the back burner, until now. I have found my company is moving to a new location(building) and this

Sorry for the off-topic, but perhaps this will be of interest to other asterisk based ITSPs. We are starting service in a rural area where the ILEC has the rural "monopoly". From what we have read in the FCC docs this does NOT exempt them from number portability, but what does it take for us to qualify to receive their numbers? To date we simply have a few voice trunks to them,

I have a couple of live T1s sitting around and they are not ISDN(like most of the people that are using Asterisk seem to be using), they are regular old 24 channel, robbed-bit, E&M wink start, D4AMI T1 circuits. Can I get these T1s to work with a T100P Digium card and asterisk? Searching through the lists and the documentation I haven't seen any examples of how to configure this kind

I am an Asterisk newby, and I cannot seem to get Caller ID information from our T1 line. When calls appear at the phones, they say the call came from "asterisk" and unknown number. I know how Caller ID information is passed on an analog phone line (between the rings) but with a T1 line, I don't know technically how it is done. I don't see the caller's number in the

Hi, Please forgive my terminology, still a bit new to T1s and such. I'm looking for a way to have 5 T1s from a carrier terminate into some type of box (multiplexer?), then be able to plug 7 asterisk servers into that box (each with single port T1 card) and be able to have 2 * servers go down at any given time and not actually have the carrier see that anything has happened. Obviously if a *

Only 100? We had a single server over 300.

Hi All, Just a little over thought. Sorry if someone already asked about this before. Is it possible to put all 16 Ports of E1 in One Asterisk Server ? And if it's not possible is there any suggestion or alternative for me to use more than 320 lines of outgoing calls on One Asterisk Server ?

Is there a way to program an FXO device to totally ignore incoming calls? I want to put an FXO on a Fax line so that 911 calls can be sent via that line, but all other activity on the line is between the Fax machine and the phone company. Perhaps munge the ring tone detect if nothing else? Cary

Howdy, New installation, trying to connect an RBS T1 with AMI/D4 framing and E&M Wink. Using a Sangoma A102d and asterisk 1.4.22-2 on Centos5 (Trixbox 2.6.2.1). Outbound calls work fine, but inbound calls fail to read the DID information, and with debug set to 10 I get the following: [Feb 2 19:40:23] DEBUG[25184] chan_zap.c: Monitor doohicky got event Wink/Flash on channel 3 [Feb 2

I am not sure what the problems are and the reasons for the basic 64K modems used in VOIP are. I understand the compressed codecs that get the bandwidth down to 20-30 K. And perhaps the 64K units give much better potential audio than you would get on a normal POTS line. But, as phone circuits VOIP/SIP doesn't seem to perform as well as plane old phones. Multiple transcodings cause issues.

I am trying to get a queue to do more than just play music and hold calls. Specifically, making some "comforting" voice announcements would be nice. Below is the queues.conf file relevant portions. Member phone number is munged to protect the guilty. We shouldn't need the announcement source info, but I have been trying everything. The problem is with the member busy, we get no

Is it possible to control the dialing format used when making a call from asterisk separately from the inbound format? In my case I have a single robbed-bit T1 configured for featd (to receive ANI and DNIS) on a TE410P. This configuration works fine for inbound calls, however when an outbound call is made on this same T1 asterisk dials outbound in the featd format. I need asterisk to only dial

Something new to me. Recently installed a 1.4.30 box for a small office with four POTS lines in a hunt (Digium TDM410P). Had the telco put a "call forward" option on the main line of the hunt. They dial a feature code from their desk phones (Polycom IP450) that results in forwarding the main number to our VoIP service. This is all to let them "try out" our dialtone

Can any one suggest a little code to either ring a cell phone when a new VM message is recorded, or send a text message? Basically outside sales people want to know they have a new message, but don't want to be interrupted to take a forwarded call. While a message by message notice would be nice, even just a single notice on the first message would be an alert to call for messages.

Hello, I am having a problem with my current SIP over VPN setup. We have a server running asterisk at our office. All the phones in the office are on the same network / local to this server. We also have two employees with home offices using SIP phones over VPN to connect to the asterisk server. These phones have no problem with calls to the phones in the office, however there is no audio

I have two questions for the group. #1 - I'm looking to use some GSM SIM cards with my Asterisk PBX. Can anyone recommend a gateway? I need about 10-15 SIM slots. #2 - I'm also looking to connect Asterisk to an SS7 signaled DS1 (24 channels) for inbound and outbound voice calls. Can anyone offer any suggestions for cards to use there?

We are an asterisk user... small time system 50-100 users or so. But, we have an opportunity to get into a big time telecom activity. It would have 2000 to 30,000 user lines per city, and we would like to have those brought back to a central location for control and because transport can be more economical than remote site rentals, maintenance and personnel. We could take the local lines into

Hi, We are trying to implement a complex business logic in Asterisk. Executing "Wait_For_Digit" command after playing IVR. We want to stop the IVR once we receive the digit. It is not recognizing the Digit until it completes the IVR. How can we stop the IVR once we receive the digit? Thanks BB -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
