Hi, Are there any resellers of phones that can take power over ethernet in Australia? All I can find for sale online is the BT-10[12], which is cheap but not featureful enough, and the Snom 190, which is about right, but neither of them support PoE. I'm particularly intereseted in the Snom 220 with the keypad expansion for our receptionist. Although, could you make a PoE split-out cable

Hi, all I am doing "prrof of concept" system. I will have two IP phones connected to Asterisk box. Box itself will have 1 PSTN conenction and one analog phone conenction. A basic minimal configuration. At the moment I am planning to use an old PII-350 with 128M of RAM I have lying around. I can not test anything yet, as I am waiting for phones to arrive, so question is will that be

I have a Polycom IP600 serving as a receptionist phone. We developed a call manager via c/gtk that runs on a touchpad. It allows them to transfer calls, transfer to voicemail, page, etc. The problem is this: When paging another phone from the touchpad, I have to open a channel to the receptionist phone. This rings the receptionist phone. When she picks up, it then pages the desired person. This is

Hi, all Stupid question, but how do you exit asterisk console without stopping the asterisk? Tried quit and exit: *CLI> exit No such command 'exit' (type 'help' for help) *CLI> quit No such command 'quit' (type 'help' for help) *CLI> Any other ideas? I started asterisk with -cvvvvg option. Same problem if use asterisk -r to connect. Can not exit. Any

Hi, all I am still battling to connect * and voipbuster. What protocol does it use? Ethereal capture shows UDP traffic, but no SIP or IAX traffic when using their client. VoipBuster client connects to connectionserver.voipbuster.com on port 11112 for authentication. Call itself is placed on different server. I have tried to connect using SIP and IAX and it seems that no authentication is

I have a number of Polycom phones to setup with my * server. For my initial few phones I hand wrote configs. Does anyone here who uses Polycom phones have some form of management utility for automating their setup?

Hi, all I am building a new server. Have installed FC 6 and put in TDM400 card. Checked out latest asteriusk code, run make install in zaptel directory. So far all is fine. Now I am trying to install the drivers. # modprobe zaptel FATAL: Module zaptel not found. Fair enough, no zaptel driver is found on the system. Is there are any known problems with FC6? I did not have much trouble running

Hi, all I am trying to figure out how to forward incoming PSTN call on SPA3000 to VoIP extension(s). Basically, I have converted my home to VoIP. I have normal phone (connected to SPA3000) and couple of IP phones. All call coming from VoIP DID do ring all phones (analogue via SPA3000 and IP ones). Now I need to do same thing for incoming PSTN calls. I have enabled gateway function in SPA3000 and

Hi, all I want voicemails to be delivered to recepients by e-mail. I have set up voicenail, and I can see asterisk is using sendmail to send messages out. Using Ethereal, I can see that messages are leaving my network, but receipeint mail server never replies back. As a result, mail delivery is timed out. I got a book on sendmail and it looks quite complex. It will take quite a bit of time

Hi all, I am working on building a new VoIP PBX. Looking at the current market for phones it seems my best "enterprise" options are the Cisco and Polycom phones. I have some experiance with the Cisco 7940G, but the process of flashing the phone with the SIP firmware left a bad taste in my mouth (not to mention the added expense for the phone). What is the general consensis about

Hi, all I am trying to set up voicemail. I've done it to the point where I can leave messages. How do I retrieve them? Actually I have few questions: 1. I want voice mail to be available at certain extension, say 100. How do I set it up so all users can call this number and get to their respective mailboxes. 2. How do I let users to create their own voicemail passwords from the phone? 3.

Hi all, We are in the process of selection IP Phones to work with our *new* Asterisk PBX. We want to buy 4 for something less than 1000$ but with a nice set of features to work with our mail box, lines, good sound quality, full duplex (and maybe speaker phone). Any suggestions for something with good voice quality and not much troubles to setup with Asterisk? Voici quality is the most

Hi, all I have couple of SIP phones and they are in [from-sip] context. I also have an IAX2 phone. I have put this one in [iax-user] context. I want to make calls between SIP and IAX2 phones. If I put them all in same context all is fine, however when they are in different contexts they will not call each other and I will get message (in * CLI) that particular extension does not exist in a

Hi, all I am setting up Asterisk for the first time and have some problems. Setup is very simple -- Astersik box and two Polycom SP300 phones. I will add bells and whistles as I go, at the moment things are very simple. No TFTP servers, so phones run with their default configuration. I set up IP addresses, netmask and gateway IPs manually on the phones. Now, I have read of problems with

G'Day All, Can anyone give me some direction in setting up the TFTP server on my RadHat ES3 box? I did quite a bit of reading, but I think I am more unsure now than before. I found the information nebulous. TFTP is already installed. I am trying to determine where the root directory for the tftp services is located so I can copy the CISCO 7960 firmware files onto it. Thanks.... Ferg

Hi, all Can a normal PCI modem be used to provide PSTN interface? I have seen modems that have answering machine capabilities, so there should not be a problem sending voice through them. Certainly, modem will be cheaper option then dedicated cards.

Hi, all I have installed TDM400 with 1 FXS and 1 FXP ports. Now I am goig through documentation on how to configure it. It mentions 3 protocols: Loopstart, Groundstart and Koolstart. Which one do I use? Can someone send me sample zaptel.conf file for Australia? This will save me some time and will be used as a working example. Thanks, Rudolf

Hi, all I have installed TDM400 card. I can see it is there (lspci). But Asterisk does not find it. phonebox2*CLI> zap show status No Zaptel interface found. I assume that driver is not loaded, but I am sure I have installed it (I compiled zaptel and then re-build asterisk and did make install for both zaptel and asterisk). When asterisk is started I get: Jan 2 06:28:08 WARNING[3473]:
