asterisk users - Apr 2005 - Siemens optiPoint 420 phone and Asterisk

Hi,

  today I've got two Siemens optiPoint 420 phones and I want to connect
them to an existing Asterisk server.

I didn't find any SIP firmware for that phone, according to announcements
it will be released later this year (hopefully soon).

chan_cornet, which would support the proprietary Siemens protocol, is not
part of the CVS tree yet (thanks to Steffen Koepf for writing this).

Maybe, someone of you can help me getting this phones working with
Asterisk by pointing out a good starting point for my investigation and
own development (if necessary) ;-)

Last but not least, some kind of network diagram to clarify the situation:

ISDN NT ---[Siemens PBX]--(S0)--[Asterisk]--(IP)--[optiPoint]

Does anybody know, if it is worth trying out the optiPoint 400 SIP
firmware on the 410/420 phones?

Thanks for your assistance,

greetings from Vienna,

Franz

On my Siemens, The extenion look like this. You can't have a user/password
and you need the reextern, extensions, and defaultip.

[200]
type=friend
defaultip=172.16.243.23
regextern=200
extensions=200
qualify=no
port=5060
pickupgroupnat=never
mailbox=200@default
host=dynamic
dtmfmode=inband
disallowcontext=from-internal
canreinvite=yes
callgroupcallerid="Test" <200>
allow

Regards,


Chris

The latest firmware for optipoint420 advance SIP seems to be version 4.0.22A, 
released for HiPath8000. Unfortunately on the Siemens page the only SIP image
that can be downloaded is for OptiPoint400 (www.hipath.de then ->download
-> software/version 2.3.14). For Optipoint410/420 only the HFA version is
available.

Is Steffen's chan_cornet available for testing? We have * connected to a
HiPath4x00 using oh323.

What siemens PBX do you use?

I don't know... maybe it will work... We only have several OptiPoint400 and
they work fine.

thanks for this information. I've contacted my customer adviser at
Siemens, he'll try to organize me this version.
> What siemens PBX do you use?
It's a HiPath 3300 (Rack version) with the extension containing 4 ISDN
ports to connect to *.

The risk of making the phone unuseable by installing a wrong firmware
seems too high for me, so I won't try that.

Thanks for the help!

Bye,

Franz

Hi Franz,
 
ok, can you please inform me (the list) if the Optipoint 420 with the firmware
4.0.22A work with Asterisk. If so i will try to contact our contact at Siemens
and organize some Optipoint 420.

BTW Have you additional information about Steffen's chan_cornet. Is there a
beta version of the chan_cornet available for testing. As mentioned in my first
post we use for the moment oh.323 and i'm very intersted to test it if
possible.
 
thx in advance...
