Can Asterisks properly handle outbound Enhanced 911? Blake

I have 3 analog trunks zap/1, zap/4 and zap/5. zap/5 is the least used line. Would the following work for 911 calls? [e911] exten => 911,1,ChanIsAvail(Zap/1) exten => 911,2,Dial(Zap/1/911) exten => 911,3,Hangup() exten => 911,102,ChanIsAvail(Zap/4) exten => 911,103,Dial(Zap/4/911) exten => 911,104,Hangup() exten => 911,203,ChanIsAvail(Zap/5) exten =>

OK, that "VOIP dialtone?" thread was getting really out of hand, so I'll condense my answers into one big ugly message: 1) 911 service. Yes, that is one of three reasons to keep your PSTN line. The other two reasons are: Inbound calls from local callers still should work on a POTS line, for now. You can't find VOIP providers in most area codes, so you'll most

Has anyone used asterisk as a simple voip server? (I'm sure its been/ing done). If so... how did you provide 911 service? Did you setup different contexts and put sip phones in those contexts per county? Also, is it possible to put a phone into multiple contexts? For instance: context=from-internal Can I add a second context like with a , comma? So the phone can have the rules from 2

Just curious if any of the Asterisk installers are doing anything special to protect themselves from a possible lawsuit caused by 911 failure during a Asterisk/computer crash? I realize that any traditional PBX or even a phone line can fail but, anything running on a computer is probably going to be less reliable than most PBXs. Anybody requiring customers to acknowledge and sign any kind of

Greetings to all, Can anyone think of a reason that a Softphone would not be compatible with the F.C.C's order for E911? If the user is able to update their address when they move their laptop, etc.

How exactly does Asterisk provide E911 service??

I have a client that would like to use asterisk to link their multiples locations together. However, if a person in the remote office dials 911, How can the 911 operator determine WHERE the emergency is?? Since all calss would be going out of the PRI in the main location, the police/fire trucks will show up at our COLO!! I know that there are some that are doing this multi site setup, how did

One of my providers has a different SIP account for each number. I have all of my users in one outbound context (caller ID passes fine). How do I ensure that the callers get routed down their correct SIP account with my provider for e911 purposes without each having their own context? ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com -------------- next part

Ok here is one for you. I know we all do the this for 911: exten => _911,1,Dial(Zap/1/911) exten => _9911,1,Dial(Zap/1/911) And this probably is more then acceptable for most of us. However I have a system setup that uses SIP for most calls and 1 POTS line. We use a "least cost" routing that uses the POTS line for local calls AND SIP when appropiate. What I want to do is

Does anyone have any experience with any SIP or IAX providers that support E911? I'd love to convert entirely to Asterisk at my house, but the lack of emergency dialing has been a major hold-up for me. Thanks in advance for any suggestions! -- Kyle Sexton

I believe the 911 is a serious issue if one does an asterisk installation in an office. How do you test 911? Won't they arrest you or something for dialing 911 for no reason and talking to one of their agents who could have taken a more important call? On the other hand what an emergency comes up (like someone got seriously injured) and on top of that asterisk crashed all of a sudden

I understand that most VoIP providers allow for 911 calling but that 911 service is not the same as that available to PSTN.

With the deadline coming up for sending notices to customers, I found it curious that out of 4-5 different providers I use, to date only one of them has contacted me. The rest don't even have anything on their website that I could find. Junction Networks was the only one that actually sent me a letter and also have everything right on the first page when you login to their system. A week or

I just set up a t1 with 2 camma mf 911 trunks on it, and I am having a issue with it. We can call 911 which is routed out these new trunks, and it goes to the 911 center, but they are not getting the ANI and hence "no record found". Our LEC is Embarq, and they say they can see the call come in and send: KP-911-ST and then KP-0-911-ST rather then KP-0-ANI-ST I turned on all the debug

Hi, We have been using Voxbone for some time for origination, and they now offer E911 services.? We are trying to set this up and having trouble meeting their authentication requirements. I setup a peer as I normally would, with user/pass as they supplied ("lacoursj", "pass"), but my calls are rejected.? Their support is asking that I follow this auth mechanism: 1st step

I *am* doing that, as I assumed it would be required just for the 911 mapping we have provided, but that doesn't change the SIP header.

OK, got a question on 911. Looking into setting up a couple asterisk servers at a country club, with VOIP phones in each of 100 short-term residential rental units. Approx 100 extensions, approx 24 outside lines. Since everything is geographically at one location, reaching 911 correctly shouldn't present a problem. However, the club wishes to ensure that 911 authorities are able to identify

During the course of a conversation with an member of the IT group who handles the E911 center for our county, I learned that all of the county's E911 is voip based. This got me to wondering why we could not just configure up a SIP or some such trunk directly to the E911 center to handle our emergency traffic. The county seems interested in exploring the possibility. So I'm wondering if

Hi, I'm trying to configure 2 parallel sip trunks between 2 boxes. However I seem to have the problem that when making a call from Box 2 to Box 1, it sometimes says authentication failed because it is using the username of the other trunk. Here's my configuration: Box 1: [dp-dp2] type=peer username=dp-dp2 secret=mysecret qualify=yes host=box.2.ip.address context=from-internal [e911-dp2]
