similar to: Polycom Auto-Answer and Call Transfers

Hi All - I'm trying to implement the auto-answer config from the wiki, but the result for me is that the phone just rings as normal. I'm running firmware version 1.4.1 on an IP500. I've added the following to my sip.cfg: <alertInfo voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.2.value="Ring Answer" voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.2.class="4"/> and this to my ipmid.cfg

CVS Head from 07/07/2005 I'm trying to make an IP-501 auto answer a call. exten => 301,1,SetVar(_ALERT_INFO="Ring_Ans") exten => 301,2,SetVar(ALERT_INFO="Ring_Ans") # Tried both combinations exten => 301,3,Dial(SIP/5001,15) exten => 301,4,Hangup Sip.cfg for Polycom phone <alertInfo voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.2.value="Ring_Ans"

Hi, I have was testing some of the different ring types with my polycom 500, and the ALERT_INFO settings. Now when my phone receives a call it won't ring. All the other phones ring fine, and my phone wasn't the only one I rebooted with the changed sip.conf and impd.conf. I have reverted back to a standard sip.conf and impd.conf and I still can not get my phone to ring for any incoming

Hi, I'm using asterisk 1.2.1 on a debian sarge distro. I've followed notes in http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Polycom+auto-answer+config and http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=OptiPoint+600+SIP+-+Distictive+ring+using+ALERT_INFO but I still cannot change ring style via asterisk using exten => 666,1,SipAddHeader(ALERT_INFO="ring3") in extensions.conf . Is it

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 =>

I am looking for clues on how to configure distinctive ring for a PolyCom SoundPoint 300. Does ALERT_INFO apply? If so, how? Thanks, David Koski david.nospham@kosmosisland.com

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

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

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"?

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

In ipmid.cfg I have: <G3INTERCOM se.rt.10.name="G3INTERCOM" se.rt.4.type="ring-answer" se.rt.4.timeout="1000" se.rt.10.ringer="7"/> In sip.cfg I have: <alertInfo voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.1.value="G3INTERCOM" voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.1.class="10"/> I set up a test extension: exten =>

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

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

Hi, I'm having trouble setting the ringtone on my Polycom 501. The relevant entry in extensions.conf is: exten => 801,hint,SIP/creative1 exten => 801,1,SetVar(ALERT_INFO="Test") exten => 801,2,Dial(SIP/creative1,20,Ttr) In the sip.cfg: <alertInfo voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.1.value="Test" voIpProt.SIP.alertInfo.1.class="13"/> and <TEST

Hi everyone, I'm wondering I would accomplish the following: I want to dial several SIP extensions simultaneously, HOWEVER, for different times (say ext 10 for 15 sec and ext 11 for 30 sec), and potentially with different headers (such as ALERT_INFO) and codecs for each extension. Obviously whoever picks up first gets the call. After the longest timeout expires (30 sec in this example) I want

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

Hi all, Has anyone gotten custom ring tones to work using ALERT_INFO with the Cisco 7940 SIP phone? I've read the wiki, but just can't get this to work. I'm currently using the 7.2 SIP image. Thanks, Chris

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

I am trying to have the ring types different for internal and external incoming calls. I have followed the guide on the wiki, the SetVar executes, in extensions.conf I have it as s,1, Yet it doesn't work? When the phone rings, the ring type is the one I chose on the phone, it rings same tone for both when I test. Using Asterisk Stable. Anyone got this working and can

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.
