Hi everyone: Anyone know some idea if the Asterisk voicemail (WMI) can send the messages to meridian for activate the light on meridian digital phones for voicemail notification????

There isn't a really good way to do it, as that is part of what keeps you hooked into their proprietary crap. It's the same as trying to tie in SIP phones through Asterisk to a Norstar system. I have it done through a PRI but even then Norstar sees the phones as external destinations, so I can't pick up Norstar parked calls and can't transfer calls over. -A.
Please keep responses to the list, so this can help everyone. On Tuesday 01 August 2006 09:26, you wrote:> Thak you for you response.

This is about the Meridian simply having no way to accept that information from an external trunk. There are VM message centers but they are extraordinarily limited and you can't give a unique one to every user, or even to a group of users. They're line-based. Similarly, you can buy an expensive NAPN or MCDN license which will allow the Norstar to see a PRI as an internal trunk line, but now you are running an undocumented and proprietary PRI signaling protocol called SL-1. It's what Norstar systems use to communicate with each other (imagine two Norstar systems connected together over a leased T1). We have no documentation on it, and Nortel is very likely unwilling to give us the information. So, as I said, you are stuck using a Nortel ATA and an FXS port on Asterisk and using a hookflash *1 sequence to toggle it. Unfortunately the VM callback # will be the ATA's DN, so only one person at a time can access voicemail. I spent some time digging into this last year, but came up without an acceptable solution. I may be forgetting or misremembering some of the details but the end result is the same: you can hack something into it but it's a shitty solution. -A.
How does the Meridian turn on the MWI? does it use simple DTMF?

If it's control by serial port, you need TAPI license, and need some investigation period to integrate with Nortel system. ( you have to pay for the license, if your system can do so. ) Cheers.>Andrew:>The key here is try to create a way to integrate Asterisk Voicemail with>existing Meridian PBX and send the MWI to M2616.>I'm investigating the propietary protocol used by Nortel in the integration>between Octel-Dialogic and Meridian for MWI.
