Hi, Companies that offer telephone service to the public are obliged to offer tapping to all kind of authorities. Does anyone know how to tap in Asterisk? I.e. record (or copy) a conversation based upon their telephone number? Thanks Dan _________________________________________________________________ Stay in touch with absent friends - get MSN Messenger http://www.msn.co.uk/messenger

However, most countries require specific protocols surrounding the lawfull intercept to make sure that no-one was able to tamper with the digital recordings. AFAIK Asterisk has no means to support those protocols at this time. -- Best regards, Florian Overkamp
So, you're providing public telephone service with *? -----Original Message----- From: Dan Tusa <dan_tusa@hotmail.com> Date: Thu, 11 Sep 2003 20:05:56 +0100 To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com <asterisk-users@lists.digium.com> Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Legal Interception - tapping Hi, Companies that offer telephone service to the public are obliged to offer tapping to all kind of authorities.

It would seem that you would be buying service from some larger telecom and they already have to meet those functions. So wouldn't it be possible to shift it to them, especially if all your traffic for any specific customer always crossed a specific telecom? -- Steven Critchfield <critch@basesys.com>

I know it is possible to record calls, it will record them to a directory you define on the server. But are you required to provide archives/recordings of the calls or permit real-time tapping?
Hi Brain, My question of course is: How do you record all the in and outbound calls (how does the script look like) and can you do selective recording as well (based upon number / username / IP@)?

Archiving calls depends on the definition of archive. When do you actually archive? If the information is stored in a buffer (memory, disk, tape) for technical reasons - do you then archive the call? Of course in general one is not allowed to store the information for a long period on his system (must be instantly forwarded to the authorities). But real-time and semi-real time definitions are pretty close /Dan>From: "Andrew Joakimsen" <andrew@envisionstudio.net> >Date: Thu, 11 Sep 2003 22:33:00 -0400 > >I phrased that incorrectly, I have way too much email to look at.... > >I know it is possible to record calls, it will record them to a >directory you define on the server.

My 5 cents ... Since the ideal situation would be real-time monitoring then maybe a more effective solution would be to sample/duplicate the packets in the IP layer rather than expecting Asterisk to perform yet another auxiliary function. Cisco like most vendors are in a position were they have to provide Lawful Intercept capabilities within their own (VoIP & IP) platforms very quickly to support the new European regulations. As a result of this a new feature will soon be available in Cisco IOS allowing routers (or AS5300's for that matter) to copy all inbound/outbound packets onto another interface or even re-write the destination address providing the capability to 'sniff' all IP (RTP/SIP) packets and route them off to another box. That other box could be another instance of Asterisk dedicated for the purpose or purely a replicated real-time packet stream routed directly to the authorities intercept platforms.> -----Original Message----- > From: Andrew Joakimsen [mailto:andrew@envisionstudio.net] > Sent: 12 September 2003 04:33 > To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com > Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Legal Interception - tapping > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: asterisk-users-admin@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users- > > admin@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Brian West > > Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2003 10:20 PM > > To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com > > Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Legal Interception - tapping > > > > pamAssassin 2.55 (1.174.2.19-2003-05-19-exp) > > > > > issue.
