similar to: Status of ALERT_INFO and Cisco 7960?

I am impressed, I have been trying this for sometime using the SIP image and the only difference I can create is a 'single' and a 'double' ring on the phone. I use the 'single' ring for phone calls and the 'double' ring for the doorbell. I would love to be able to choose a ring tone based on the incoming msn or callerID. The idea of the phone shouting 'Its the

I am wondering if there are any tricks getting the Cisco ATAs to do "distinctive rings" via the ALERT_INFO variable? I have seen some contradictory information in the Wiki, and I tried the example there. I then sniffed the connection between the server and the ATA and didn't see the header sent like it is "supposed" to be. If someone out there has a handle on this and

Hi, I've just found: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2003-June/014475.html which talks about ALERT_INFO and Cisco phones. How do I actually get this working and what does it do? Do I need to add anything to the configs for the phone or is it just a SetVar(ALERT_INFO=1) - which I tried and it seemed to do nothing at all.. Thanks Andy

I'm trying to change the ring tone on my 7960 from the dialplan. I've tried the example on the wiki but it doesn't seem to work. Something like: exten => 3010,1,SetVar(ALERT_INFO=<Bellcore-dr1>) ; selects Ringer exten => 3010,2,Dial(SIP/3010,15) I'm not sure what the Bellcore-dr1 ringer is supposed to be. I've tried replacing ALERT_INFO with another ring tone

Hi ho, is there anyone out here that is making use of the regcontext and regexten settings in sip.conf? I've tried this on two Asterisk boxes (1.2.10 and 1.2.12.1) and in both cases I don't see the Noop priority 1 being created upon SIP client registration, "show dialplan xxx" reveals no change. And yes, I have also read and checked bug 7144; if I go down that route and no

Hi C F no asterisk and sip device are not behind same router. actually both are in different countries. how ever when caller and callee are behind same routers voice is just fine (both ways) and i can see re-INVITEs too. but when someone calls from another router then this issue arises. caller can hear the called party but called party can not hear caller. and there are no re-invites issued

I have been playing with a 480i with the new firmware 1.2.0.162 I hope to get some form of paging intercom function to work. In the wiki someone post that ALERT_INFO type of paging might be in this version of firmware but I have been unable to find anything on this yet. I have tried sending the ALERT_INFO to the phone a number of ways with no results. I then hooked up my bt100 and tried to dial

Hello, I've got my dialplan configured to do a double ring when a customer service call comes in, and a normal ring when an extension is dialed directly. When a customer service call is transferred, I want to ring to revert back to normal. In the local extension macro, I have the following ; make sure ring is set to default exten => s,n,NoOp(${ALERT_INFO}) exten =>

Hi All, I am running into a problem setting the ringtones via _ALERT_INFO on the Cisco 7960 phone. I am using * 1.2.1 and have tried setting the variable to several values. I have also tried setting the phone's software to both 7.5 and 8.2 thinking that it might be a version issue, but with no success. I have examined the packets and do see the ALERT_INFO header being sent, but the

A call comes in I set the distinctive ring by setting variable ALERT_INFO then dial a SIP channel. The channel is answered, but then the user forwards the call to another SIP channel. ALERT_INFO is still set. How can I clear the ALERT_INFO variable after the SIP channel is answered so that when the call is forwarded the ring goes back to "normal"?

Hi! Yes you're right (for windows), but I found this thread http://www.mail-archive.com/asterisk-users@lists.digium.com/msg10695.html and that works! The first card is connected to a normal Telekom NTBA, the second to an internal PBX. There have to be a possibility to configure multiple ISDN cards (e.g. AVM B1 PCI) through capi.conf. How? Or does chan_capi support only one ISDN-Card?

Is asterisk able to forward it's ALERT_INFO data to another asterisk server ? My situation should look like the following: Call comes into asterisk1 in SIP. Asterisk1 sets the ALERT_INFO=Bellcore-r2, Asterisk1 dials Asterisk2 (SIP), Asterisk2 dials our SIP device which should ring with the Bellcore-r2 Any way to pass the ALERT_INFO through to the SIP device? Thanks -- Benjamin

Anyone having any problems with CVS-HEAD-12/24/04-15:59:15 and ALERT_INFO I have a system setup with polycom phones configured to auto answer on internal calls. When we upgraded to the latest CVS the auto answer stopped working. My dialplan has not changed. I did a sip debug and I dont see the alert-info tag in any of the sip traces. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks John Bittner Simlab.net

Hi Can anyone with distinctive ring on their 7960's possibly post how they've got it to work? I understand that the ALERT_INFO variable is involved but using the examples for the variable value from the WiKi I'm just getting an error message from the Asterisk concole. Thanks in advance. P

Since 1.4 ALERT_INFO variable has been deprecated. I used to send this via AMI: Action: Originate Channel: Sip/1234 Application: AgentLogin Data: 1234 Variable: _ALERT_INFO=info=alert-autoanswer Callerid: AutoLogin[1234] In order to send an autologin and autoanswer call to the agent 1234 on an Aastra phone at extension 1234. (just for example). Now in * 1.4 with ALERT_INFO deprecated I

Greetings, I am trying to implement distinctive ringing on a Cisco 7960. I have tried setting alert_info to chirp1 or chirp2 before dialing the phone, but it has no affect. If you have successfully implemented distinctive ringing on a 7960, I would really appreciate seeing the snipit of code that works. Thanks in advance Bruce Komito High Sierra Networks, Inc. www.servers-r-us.com (775)

supposed to be able to give you much help with such little info anyway), I can only guess that since you are using the 's' extension, you are in a macro ? If so, try scrolling down the wiki page to the example using '[macro-inbound]'.<br> <br> Rob<br> <br> Jonas Kellens wrote: <blockquote cite="mid:4C17C4A1.8020404 at telenet.be"

Hello, I have uploaded a custom ringtone to our SPA-922's for the purpose of sounding like a door bell chime when the doorbell is pressed. I am using __alert_info to set this ringtone. It appears that I can only set the ringtone via alert_info for the ringtones that come from Linksys. Has anyone else seen this issue? I am doing the following: exten => 100,1,SetVar(_ALERT_INFO=doorbell)

I have looked at several IAX and SIP soft phones but I have been disappointed with the sound quality on my Windows XP Pro PC. Also the GrandStream problem is that they don't yet support headsets. When I turn auto answer on and I dial in it instantly picks up with the speaker phone. But if I have the handset picked up when a call is coming in the line is busy. That means that the phone itself
