Well, to do an upgrade on a traditional system you have the same issues, perhaps even worse as everything is physically wired to one system. To develop for production you must have a dev environment, a beta test and a scheduled release right?

FYI there is a way to do 911 its called E-911 enhanced 911 the user has to set it up with the local emergency services to it and you setup your pbx to xmit the data. Here is the fcc rule about it http://www.fcc.gov/911/enhanced/

Just curious if any of the Asterisk installers are doing anything special to protect themselves from a possible lawsuit caused by 911 failure during a Asterisk/computer crash? I realize that any traditional PBX or even a phone line can fail but, anything running on a computer is probably going to be less reliable than most PBXs. Anybody requiring customers to acknowledge and sign any kind of

I understand that most VoIP providers allow for 911 calling but that 911 service is not the same as that available to PSTN.

OK, got a question on 911. Looking into setting up a couple asterisk servers at a country club, with VOIP phones in each of 100 short-term residential rental units. Approx 100 extensions, approx 24 outside lines. Since everything is geographically at one location, reaching 911 correctly shouldn't present a problem. However, the club wishes to ensure that 911 authorities are able to identify

OK, that "VOIP dialtone?" thread was getting really out of hand, so I'll condense my answers into one big ugly message: 1) 911 service. Yes, that is one of three reasons to keep your PSTN line. The other two reasons are: Inbound calls from local callers still should work on a POTS line, for now. You can't find VOIP providers in most area codes, so you'll most

Has anyone used asterisk as a simple voip server? (I'm sure its been/ing done). If so... how did you provide 911 service? Did you setup different contexts and put sip phones in those contexts per county? Also, is it possible to put a phone into multiple contexts? For instance: context=from-internal Can I add a second context like with a , comma? So the phone can have the rules from 2

I believe the 911 is a serious issue if one does an asterisk installation in an office. How do you test 911? Won't they arrest you or something for dialing 911 for no reason and talking to one of their agents who could have taken a more important call? On the other hand what an emergency comes up (like someone got seriously injured) and on top of that asterisk crashed all of a sudden

To anyone seeking 911 services Highly recommended to everyone to stay away from this issue I do not have a name for the company right off hand, but they got sued really bad when they tried 911 via VOIP and the 911 drop kept occurring in different areas and someone died!

I have a client that would like to use asterisk to link their multiples locations together. However, if a person in the remote office dials 911, How can the 911 operator determine WHERE the emergency is?? Since all calss would be going out of the PRI in the main location, the police/fire trucks will show up at our COLO!! I know that there are some that are doing this multi site setup, how did

Has anyone had any experience using asterisk for a 911 call center? Does anyone know of any reason why it would not be suitable? As far as I know all 911 call routing takes place at the CO switch so a regular T1 line should work fine. I understand that there is support for ACD in asterisk and that is should be possible to implement screen pop (CTI). Any comments? Gene Kochanowsky Solution

In United Kingdom, we have time based dialling pricing from most of Telco's based on time the call is placed! It is called PEAK (08.00- 18.00 Mon-Fri), OFF PEAK(18.00-08.00 Mon-Fri) and WEEKEND (all other times! Could someone from any of other countries let me know if time based charging exists in your country? Also, what numbers (up to 999) are commonly used for emergency, police or other

Hi all, While pondering my choices for local dial tone service via a bunch of POTS lines or a T1, I began to wonder if perhaps there is another way. Are there VoIP dialtone providers? That is, could I use only my internet connection for voice calls and not have a separate T1/POTS bank for that? I guess I am imagining a company that gateways between the PTSN and the internet backbone.

Hi there, I am running a PBX under asterisk 1.6. I have few FXO analogue lines connecting to PSTN. These lines are in a hunt group. I trying to make my extensions to dial 91, but this is a bit scary, I mean if somebody make an emergency call after hours and without completing call is not able to tell his/her location. How can I make 911 call center to know the exact location of my extension. I
