similar to: Volume on Zap channels (T1)

We've got a Toshiba DK system w/ analog ports that went to a voicemail server. I swapped in an Asterisk box with a Digium 4-port fxo card. It /almost/ worked perfectly. The problem is that Zap channels never hang up. They have to time out. I set up MeetMe, but all Zap channels hung forever. Very annoying. Same thing for FXO-to-FXO bridges. I figured out today why and fixed it.

I know this topic came up many months back and some discussions were being had on how to do this within the Zaptel drivers. However, I'm looking for even a crude hack that someone has put together to get this done. We have PRI's and LD T1's that are load balanced on two boxes. The hunt order goes from box to box as far as the spans are concerned. There are times that I would like to

My boss is complaining that the delay between speaking and hearing in a meetme conference is noticeable and doesn't want to roll out our system until I can eliminate the delay. Personally, I don't think the delay is significant, but I don't sign his check. The system consist of 3 1u's, each with a single quad t1 card. Each card has 2 t1's running NFAS. The "t1

I'm posting here in case anyone else runs into this and needs some help. I'll probably update the voip-info Wiki pages on Toshiba integration in a bit. Asterisk 1.6 makes things a bit easier than what is on that page. I'm integrating an Asterisk server with a Toshiba Strata system at my office. Right now, it is driving some VoIP phones (Cisco ATAs with analog phones plugged into

Hi All, Is it possible to go beyond 250 concurrent ZAP channels with some tweaking or workaround ? Meetme uses zap channels, so we could have a max of 250 conference ports. Is it possible to higher this ? "An Asterisk system can only handle a *max. of 250 concurrent ZAP channels*. This is due to the design limit (255) within the ZAP channel driver." Thanks, ~Vamsi -------------- next

hello, I got those extensions: exten => 555,1,MeetMeCount(500|count) exten => 555,2,Gotoif,$[${count} = 1]?6 exten => 555,3,Meetme,500|pMs|1234 exten => 555,4,Playback,goodbye exten => 555,5,Hangup exten => 555,6,Goto(from-internal-custom,556,1) exten => 555,7,hangup exten => 556,1,System(/bin/cp /etc/asterisk/1-test /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing/) exten =>

Here's the scenario: 1. I call out through * using a X100P card to somebody. Then I transfer them to a MeetMe conference and that all works. 2. After the conference is over everybody hangs up but "show channels" shows that the Zap/1-1 channel is still in use by MeetMe and the analog line is not freed up for re-use. Ever. Any clues? Thanks!

One thing that concerns me is that this post is from 2009, even though the newest version of the app on Sourceforge is up to date. I have a customer who has been using a conference server that I built for him using app_konference for several years now and he routinely runs conferences with anywhere from 10 ? 125 active users. The ultimate goal is several hundred concurrent users and I can see that

I have 12 T1's going into 3 servers, 4 in each into "Digium, Inc. Wildcard TE410P Quad-Span togglable E1/T1/J1 card 3.3v (rev 02)" cards. Each "group" of T1's have the primary D on 24 and the secondary D on 96. The first server (ts20) and the last server (ts22) can playback "demo-congrats" fine. The "middle" server (ts21) cannot -- just dead air.

Hi guys/girls, We are running a TDM04B card with Asterisk in a Linux box that has 15 GS102 extensions and 1 SNOM190 phone which we are using as an operator console. The FXO ports in the TDM04B are plugged directly into our telecoms provider's analogue lines. Something I've picked up with the SNOM is that sometimes when there are two active incoming calls via Zap channels and the first

I've been asked by my company to setup a conferencing system to support up to 400 people on a conference calls, where all users will be dialling in frpm the PSTN. I am exploring using Asterisk meetme to do this. I have two questions in relation to this:- For Meetme conferences is it better to have all participants to dial in via SIP provider terminating to Asterisk via SIP/IAX, or use

Hi all, I'm dealing with a Toshiba PBX - DK 40 I think it is...The problem is this: If someone dialing in from the PBX (on one of the two X100P cards) goes into a MeetMe conference...Everything is fine, until they hang up - especially if there's music on hold - the line is held open because Asterisk does not know the far end hung up. I have it set to fxo_ls right now for signalling.

Hi all, Some simple questions about codecs: What codec does the Zap channel use by default? Can this default be changed, and to what? (g729 too?) What codec does meetme use? (I think this is ulaw, but asking to be sure) Can you use another codec, or does everything have to be transcoded to ulaw? Finally ... if I have a 3way call going, between 1 g729 caller and two other callers, do I need one

There is one more thing to try: http://snapvoip.blogspot.com/2009/07/appkonference-asterikast-high.html I would appreciate if anyone can comment on the feasibility of playing an audio file to the caller and callee using ControlPlayBack and appkonference. Much of the reviews indicate that appkonference is an over-kill for an audio as its main functionality is with video. Going past that. Thanks

I was playing around with conferencing tonight. I was able to place a bunch of SIP phones and a couple of my Zap FXS phones into a conference. So I thought, "Let's see what it's like when people come in from outside." So I called a friend and had him call in on one of my Zap channels, WHICH IS CONNECTED TO MY POTS LINE THAT DOESN'T DO DISCONNECT SUPERVISION. When he

I have Meetme conferencing compiled for Debian as per http://powerontech.com/freepbx-on-debian.htm . I drop a callfile in the outgoing dir, and it intitiates a call to a local extension as a channel, but the call seems to block on the Meetme() command. That extension completes the outgoing Dial(SIP) command to my phone, announcing that leg is the only member of the conference, and just waits. If I

Hi. The UPGRADE.txt of asterisk distribution contains the following snippet under the MeetMe heading: /"MeetMe: * The conference application now allows users to increase/decrease their speaking volume and listening volume (independently of each other and other users); the 'admin' and 'user' menus have changed, and new sound files are included with this release.

I'm trying to get a souped-up test machine(G5 Xserve) from Terrasoft to do some testing in a few weeks. If/when I actually get it I'll certainly post the results here. In theory the G5 should mop the floor with the Intel for high-volume Asterisk Zaptel usage, and I have heard from several Mac-heads that they have run three quad T1 digium cards on the Mac platform with no problems.
