Hi, I have already send a message to Digium but I post this again to know of anyone who use the G.729 codec. My questions are: - Do I have to pay 10$ per month or it is only this fee to use the codec forever - How many licenses do I have to buy ? ( I have an Asterisk talking with two Cisco with VIC-2FXO each one, and one Cisco with a E1 ) - If I add another Cisco with another VIC-2FXO, Do I have to buy two more lincenses? - If I have 50 Cisco ATA Registered on my SIP.conf, Do I have to buy 50 licenses to use it when they talk between them without going through the PSTN? Thank you very much... Nahuel Ramos.
The $10 is a permanent license. You only need a license for each *transcoding instance* in the asterisk box. The Cisco's already have 729 built in. Cisco to Cisco doesn't take any license, Cisco to voicemail will require 1 license per simultaneous voicemail connection. Cisco to conference room will require 1 license each, and so forth. tim -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Nahuel Alejandro Ramos Sent: Monday, November 15, 2004 3:24 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: [Asterisk-Users] $10 for G.729 ?

I think this has been answered way more then once in the last six months or so.> I have already send a message to Digium but I post this again to > know of anyone who use the G.729 codec. > My questions are: > - Do I have to pay 10$ per month or it is only this fee to use the > codec forever > - How many licenses do I have to buy ?

Be sure to think about users calling vm, etc.> - If I add another Cisco with another VIC-2FXO, Do I have to buy two > more lincenses?Same answer. If no one is talking, no licenses are required. If you have four simultanous conversatons, you need at least four licenses. Doesn't make any difference if your own 1,000 Cisco cards.> - If I have 50 Cisco ATA Registered on my SIP.conf, Do I have to buy > 50 licenses to use it when they talk between them without going > through the PSTN?Same answer. Read the words "simultanous conversations" in progress as that is the number licenses regardless of what assets you deploy.
Seshu, Yes, I have got my ASTCC working. I just only compiled the astcc.tar.gz then I create my MySQL tables manualy, here are the SQL: # Database: astcc # Table: 'brands' # CREATE TABLE `brands` ( `name` char(40) NOT NULL default '', `language` char(10) default NULL, `publishednum` char(40) default NULL, `did` char(40) default NULL, `markup` int(11) default NULL, `inc` int(11) default NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`name`) ) TYPE=MyISAM; # Database: astcc # Table: 'cards' # CREATE TABLE `cards` ( `number` char(20) NOT NULL default '', `language` char(10) default NULL, `facevalue` int(11) default NULL, `used` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', `inc` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', `markup` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', `creation` timestamp(14) NOT NULL, `firstuse` timestamp(14) NOT NULL default '00000000000000', `expiration` timestamp(14) NOT NULL default '00000000000000', `inuse` int(11) default NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`number`) ) TYPE=MyISAM; # Database: astcc # Table: 'cdrs' # CREATE TABLE `cdrs` ( `cardnum` char(40) default NULL, `callerid` char(80) default NULL, `callednum` char(80) default NULL, `trunk` char(40) default NULL, `disposition` char(20) default NULL, `billseconds` int(11) default NULL, `billcost` int(11) default NULL ) TYPE=MyISAM; # Database: astcc # Table: 'iaxfriends' # CREATE TABLE `iaxfriends` ( `name` char(40) NOT NULL default '', `secret` char(40) default NULL, `context` char(40) default NULL, `ipaddr` char(20) default NULL, `port` int(6) default NULL, `regseconds` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', PRIMARY KEY (`name`) ) TYPE=MyISAM; # Database: astcc # Table: 'routes' # CREATE TABLE `routes` ( `pattern` char(40) NOT NULL default '', `comment` char(80) default NULL, `trunks` char(80) default NULL, `connectcost` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', `includedseconds` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', `cost` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', PRIMARY KEY (`pattern`) ) TYPE=MyISAM; # Database: astcc # Table: 'sipfriends' # CREATE TABLE `sipfriends` ( `name` char(40) NOT NULL default '', `username` char(40) default NULL, `secret` char(40) NOT NULL default '', `context` char(40) NOT NULL default '', `ipaddr` char(20) NOT NULL default '', `port` int(6) NOT NULL default '0', `regseconds` int(11) default NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`name`) ) TYPE=MyISAM; # Database: astcc # Table: 'trunks' # CREATE TABLE `trunks` ( `name` char(40) NOT NULL default '', `tech` char(10) default NULL, `path` char(40) NOT NULL default '', PRIMARY KEY (`name`) ) TYPE=MyISAM; Then I configure my ASTCC through the perl web script to ASTCC looks my MySQL DB and after that I put the extensions samples: ; use 77 as access number to enter the calling card system exten => 77,1,Authenticate(1234) exten => 77,2,Answer exten => 77,3,DeadAGI(astcc.agi) exten => 77,4,Hangup To probe it, I dial 77 on my Cisco ATA or Xlite and an operator start talking me and ask me to put the card number. I add anothe extension to extension.conf: exten => _77.,1,DeadAGI(astcc.agi,${CALLERIDNUM},${EXTEN:2},3) exten => _77.,2,Hangup So when I dial 7712345, I am using CALLERIDNUM card number and automaticaly dial 12345. I hope you make it work. Nahuel Ramos.

> 1) I am using the new MYSQL database darren Wiebe created. It has > additional column called 'PIN' in the table. Does that affect anything?I install the one with the PIN and works ok too, but with the ASTCC.agi using the PIN. I suppose it does not affect.> 2)The tables CDRS and Routes is new to me.

The Routes table is the one which has all the information about prices and route to send the call. For example, I have one with pattern "63" that send everithing to another Asterisk and cost 0.50$ per minute. To add a Route first you have to add a Trunk which is the Gateway you will use to manage this prefix or pattern.> 3) What is the use of IAXfriends and SIpFriends tables?I do not use IAX and SIP Friends table because I was not be able to reload them automaticaly.
