Has anybody managed to get * working with a Mitel 3300 and if so what method (sip / h323) and licences did you use and have you any tips or pitfalls.

The 3300 uses the MiNet protocol so you wouldn't be able to interface it over a LAN, but hooking it up the "old school" way (crossover PRI cable) should work fine, you would have to set up DID's on your 3300 that correspond to the extension numbers you would want to dial the 3300 from Asterisk. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk [mailto:asterisk@zinix.co.uk] Sent: Monday, July 24, 2006 5:11 AM To: 'Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion' Subject: [asterisk-users] Mitel 3300 + * Has anybody managed to get * working with a Mitel 3300 and if so what method (sip / h323) and licences did you use and have you any tips or pitfalls.

SIP is on the "low-end" product (3200?) which is meant as an Asterisk-style mini-PBX that provided an entry point to get Mitel into orgs with < 50 users, but for some reason it seems discontinued I can't find it on their website anymore. There is a SIP stack for the 5220 and higher phones but it is sparsely supported and it seems that Mitel did it just to pay lip service to orgs that didn't want to give up their 5220's when they moved to a SIP based PBX. There's marketing value to having the "Mitel" brand on the handset that the enduser picks up, regardless of what's in the back end. Every few days one of my endusers asks why our phone system has a funny name: "SNOM" lol anyhoo you are better off not dealing with the strange, funky, obscure and undocumented MiNet protocol. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk [mailto:asterisk@zinix.co.uk] Sent: Monday, July 24, 2006 9:31 AM To: 'Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion' Subject: RE: [asterisk-users] Mitel 3300 + * Thanks, I know the phones can be loaded with the sip protocol and seem to recall from some time ago that mitel said they were going to introduce sip to the platform and assumed they had.

The Mitel 3300 natively supports SIP as of version 7.0.21.4 (also referred to as 7.0 UR2) which was recently released. We currently have several Asterisk systems integrated with Mitel 3300's via SIP. You will require SIP trunking licenses. Contact me off list if you need any assistance with this.

The Mitel 3200 was Mitel's first effort at an IP PBX and ran on Windows NT. It has been long discontinued (many years ago) and was replaced by the Mitel 3300. There is SIP firmware available for the 5212, 5224, 5215, 5220 and 5235 phones on Mitel's sip firmware site at sipdnld.mitel.com. There have been regular updates to Mitel's firmware. The Mitel SIP phones are used in a number of large TSP installations and work fine with Asterisk. Mitel provides support for their products through their network of resellers. They do not support end users directly. Mitel IP phones run MiNet which is Mitel's proprietary voip protocol when used in conjunction with the 3300 and SX-200 ICP PBXs. This protocol existed long before SIP and I'm not sure how it is any stranger, funkier or more obscure than any other proprietary voip protocol that other vendors use such as cornet or skinny. The MiNet protocol enables support for Mitel's 500+ legacy station features and I'm confident that at whatever point it becomes possible or practical to map that functionality into SIP that Mitel will do it. They are very committed to SIP as a company.
