Hi- Because a majority of my customers are in Europe, I've gotten quite used to working with ISDN (PRI) and BRI on a regular basis. Recently one of my customers asked me if I could terminate a few lines locally here in the USA (California), so I called up SBC to enquire as to how much it would cost to install a BRI here. Although the rates were reasonable (except the installation), I got

Hi all- Over the past week or two, I've been trying out asterisk under Fedora 1 Linux (RedHat). In my setup (single and dual Xeon motherboards), I have so far had a very good experience in terms of performance. In doing E1 load testing, I've found that Fedora handles heavy load much better than RedHat9, probably because of its better use of the multi-threading capabilities of the Xeon.

Hi- I have an upcoming application that requires use of PRI channels that are primarily used for high-volume incoming traffic, but that are to be used for outbound calling as well. Of course, one option is to have dedicated outbound channels reserved, but this is an inefficient use of channel resources. Normally PBX's are designed to have the CPE yield to an incoming call if a particular

Hello- Is it possible to set the CDR record field called "accountcode" from within the dialplan? Or is there another way to cause this field to be set, preferably without using AGI code.

Hi- I'm almost embarrassed to ask the following simple question, following John's excellent and rigorous bandwidth analysis (see earlier thread): I have a straightforward Asterisk application, IVR-only (no connections between channels). It will simply decode DTMF's and speak prompts (probably A-Law encoded) on a number of E1 circuits simultaneously. Realistically, how many

Hi all- It's often mentioned here that recompiling the Linux kernel may improve the performance of asterisk. My question is: Does re-compiling the kernel have any effect if there are no changes to the configuration? What parameters will typically improve performance? Thanks for any insight! Scott Scott M. Stingel Emerging Voice Technology Inc. Palo Alto, California and London,

Hi, I have resources available to host a portal specifically for the Asterisk system, to help correlate documentation, FAQ's and How To I am new to Asterisk, and my hardest work is in locating information on using or configuring the software. Would Mark, John or any of you feel this would be of benefit to host? I am offering a PHP-NUKE portal for this, (Unless you know of a better

Hi all, Does somebody know how I have to setup my TE405P ? Is it correct my configuration below ? Otherwise, can somebody help me ?

Hi all- Thanks to Mark Spencer for finding this patch: If you are experiencing leftover zombie processes from your AGI scripts that have terminated, this is apparently due to a RedHat 9 threading issue introduced in a recent update.... To get rid of this, try entering the following line before you start asterisk: export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 It works for me - I'm still checking to

Hi- I have an upcoming order for a bunch of asterisk boxes, and I'm considering using an "assembled" package for the server, instead of building them from components as I usually do. Does anyone have experience with the Dell PowerEdge 750 server, or any other 1U rackmount server for use with asterisk? Thanks in advance Scott Stingel Scott M. Stingel President, Emerging Voice

Update on this problem: I gave up on the "native" h.323 because, like others, I couldn't get audio working. (yes, I tried disabling FastStart in ast_h323.cpp - no change) So I went and got the OH323 code from www.inaccessnetworks.com. Glad to say that everything seems to work so far. Not only does audio work, but even the handshaking is now working in both OpenPhone and even

Hello- What is the .gsm format? Ie: what's the encoding method and sample rate please? Thanks Scott Scott M. Stingel Emerging Voice Technology Inc. Palo Alto, California and London, England Email: scott@evtmedia.com URL: www.evtmedia.com

Hi- Perhaps someone with an E100P in hand can answer this: I just received an E100P from Digium (I normally buy quad boards) I noticed that the circuit board says "T100P" on it, and I assume that the T100P and E100P both use the same circuit board. Can someone please confirm that their E100P says "T100P" on the artwork? Thanks Scott Scott M. Stingel Emerging Voice

I'm having difficulty getting a PRI working between asterisk and a Merlin Legend. I have been attempting to get it going as esf, b8zs & 5ess (although I have tried other switchtypes...). I found the following info in the Legend docs: If the switch type is 5ESS, the protocol MUST be set for ATT Custom. If switch type is DMS-100, the protocol MUST be set for NTNAPRI The README in

Hello, We have one production server that is identically configured to another production server except for the fact that they each use a different type of digium quad T1 card(one has T400P and one has TE405P). The server with the 405 has been developing delay problems with Sipura SPA-2000 phone adapters after a call has gone on for 15-30 minutes (up to 1 second audio delay). I asked Sipura and

While the rest of you were chatting about the smallest * server, I was sitting her staring at the telephone hanging on the wall. It is a Western Electric set in a varnished pine box with an earpiece you hold in your left hand and a mouthpiece attached to the box. You crank the magneto with your right hand to signal the switchboard. The two dry cells inside are dated 1935, and I'm

Hi- I'm looking for an appropriate system board to power a system with two (2) Digium TE410P cards. Since these cards require the 3.3 volt PCI, I'm considering vendors like Tyan for the motherboard. Can anyone please tell me their experiences with the Tyan i7501 series (Xeon-basd), or recommend an alternate motherboard? Thanks Scott Scott M. Stingel Emerging Voice Technology Inc.

Hi all- This question is for those familiar with EuroISDN setup. I have a customer in Europe where I'm going to install an asterisk based system with 4 E1's. The customer will configure them all in one large hunt group. My question is about the E1 channel configuration. I know that usually single E1 spans are set up with 30 channels (1-15 and 17-31) as the voice (bearer) channels and

Hi all- HELP! This is actually a revisit of a problem that I had earlier with E400P's at a customer site. Customer still gets locked up channel problem, but has learned to live with it (channels clear themselves after several minutes). The symptoms, which I believe are directly related: I'm having problems with tons of framing and "read" errors on my E1 connections (and
