Hi, I have a project coming up which will need to interface Asterisk to E1 trunks in the UK. I have a couple of questions which I hope someone can answer, or give me some pointers: 1. If I want two E1 trunks, is there anything to choose, performance-wise, between using two ports on a single TE405P, and using two E100P cards? 2. How can I test the E1 operation in the lab, which doesn't

Has anyone else experienced a problem with the LED for span 1 on a TE410P or TE405P? I had a TE410P on which the span 1 LED would not light red, but once the span was connected, it did correctly light green. I RMAed the board to our UK distrbutor and received a replacement. However, the replacement board displayed the same problem! Wondering if it was related to the computer I was putting it

I have an Asterisk system running on T1 PRI trunks using a TE405P. It seems to be running ok, but one thing puzzles me. Every so often I get a raft of messages like this: -- B-channel 0/1 successfully restarted on span 1 -- B-channel 0/2 successfully restarted on span 1 ....... -- B-channel 0/22 successfully restarted on span 1 -- B-channel 0/23 successfully restarted on span 1 I could

Is there anything to choose, in performance, between a TE405P and a TE410P? I understand the difference between the PCI bus voltages, and certainly don't intend to try Andrew's hacksaw operation :-). But if I choose the card first, and a compatible mobo second, does it make any difference which? Cheers Tony -- Tony Mountifield Work: tony@softins.co.uk - http://www.softins.co.uk Play:

Does anyone know which physical interrupt line out of the four on the PCI backplane the TE405P uses? Or is it somehow configurable by hardware or software? I'm trying to diagnose a problem where the card generates no interrupts in one system, but is fine in another system. These systems are SBC-in-backplane type. My knowledge of how PCI works at the physical layer is rather limited, but I

Hi, Is anyone here using the SuperMicro SuperServer 6014P-8R with Asterisk? I'm especially interested if you've used it with a TE405P or TE410P. Cheers Tony -- Tony Mountifield Work: tony@softins.co.uk - http://www.softins.co.uk Play: tony@mountifield.org - http://tony.mountifield.org

Has anyone here done any work on clustering Meetme conferences over multiple Asterisk boxes? The scenario I am thinking of is where there are two or more boxes connected to a set of PRIs that all answer to the same PSTN number, and where it's not possible to know in advance on which box a call would arrive. So it would be possible to have some calls on one box and some on another, that should

I wonder if anyone can suggest ways to diagnose an infuriating problem being experienced by customers of a company I did a large Asterisk project for. First some background: The system is a conferencing system using a modified MeetMe. There are seven Asterisk boxes (we call them bridges) each with four T1 PRIs into a TE405P. No VoIP is involved. A conference is always local to a single bridge.

worked came to one ring only now. Thank you very much. If I use TE410 or TE405 instead of X100P. do it make that first ring disappear?

Hi, I'm using OH323, mostly with success, to interface Asterisk to a provider's switch (World Telecom INX). I have noticed a particular effect, and I wonder whether anyone else has seen the same? The effect is audio flutter (almost like the flutter one gets on MF or HF radio sometimes) which only happens intermittently. Audio coming into Asterisk is unaffected, as proved by using the

I wonder if anyone has come across this odd behavour with a T1 PRI using NI2 signalling from a Nortel switch. Sometimes, when bringing up a PRI trunk, a channel gets into a state where asterisk can't request a channel, and gets reason 0, but the channel is not busy. The only thing so far that clears this state is to make an incoming call to the channel, which succeeds. After that, outgoing

Does anyone know how a program, script or shell user can best determine whether the machine is running on bare metal or is a VMware guest? Cheers Tony -- Tony Mountifield Work: tony at softins.co.uk - http://www.softins.co.uk Play: tony at mountifield.org - http://tony.mountifield.org

I want to use fail2ban on CentOS 6 to monitor Apache with the standard default logfile format ("combined"). Has anyone here succeeded in doing so? The format has the IP at the start of the line, followed by two dashes (if no authentication) and THEN the timestamp. What I've read on the fail2ban wiki seems to say that the timestamp must ALWAYS be at the start of the line, followed by

I have a potential client that wants to send many faxes simultaneously, over E1 trunks. How CPU intensive is spandsp's txfax? How many concurrent faxes could be sent by a decent CPU (e.g. Xeon 3GHz) before timing starts to get disrupted?

[apologies if this comes through twice - the original doesn't seem to have shown up even after 16 hours] In the handling of agents, when using AgentCallbackLogin, a call placed to an agent needs to be accepted by the agent pressing the '#' key. I'm trying to replicate that kind of operation in a non-agent scenario: I want to call Dial() from my dialplan, play an announcement to

I am seeing some curious behaviour with a 1.2.32 system, which I do not understand and so can't work out how to fix it. I have a PRI routed to context default. Here is the complete default context: [default] exten => _9X.,1,Dial(IAX2/m1peer/${EXTEN:1}) exten => _20XX,1,Dial(IAX2/sipeer/${EXTEN}) exten => _X.,1,Dial(IAX2/m1peer/${EXTEN}) exten =>

I'm just setting up a SuperMicro system which has twin SATA disks on an Intel IHC7 RAID-capable controller. The system came with Fedora 5 pre-installed, which I will be removing and replacing with CentOS 4.5. But before doing so, I've been having a look at how the original vendor configured it. When I've built systems previously, I've disabled any RAID controller and used kernel

I have been writing a lot of AGI programs in C with good success. I would like somehow to have an AGI program continue in the background while the pbx execution returns to the dialplan and continues. Is this possible? I was thinking that perhaps I could fork or create another thread within the AGI prog. The reason I want to do so is in order to monitor external information (e.g. credit limit and

I'm having a bit of trouble setting up my sip.conf entries to accept calls from a particular provider, and the problem really is that I am unclear exactly what parts of the INVITE are supposed to match what parts of sip.conf. I couldn't find this info on the wiki, so if someone here can shed some light, I would be very grateful! Here are the relevant lines from the INVITE (from sip
