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

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. Thanks in advance Bruce Komito High Sierra Networks, Inc. www.servers-r-us.com (775)

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 =>

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 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

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, 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

Hello, I have uploaded a custom ringtone to our SPA-922's for the purpose of sounding like a door bell chime when the doorbell is pressed. I am using __alert_info to set this ringtone. It appears that I can only set the ringtone via alert_info for the ringtones that come from Linksys. Has anyone else seen this issue? I am doing the following: exten => 100,1,SetVar(_ALERT_INFO=doorbell)

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

I'm wondering whether there's a problem with the blindxfer and atxfer commands. I was using Asterisk STABLE and pressing the # key to transfer calls worked fine, except of course when you called up FedEx and they asked "Enter the number of packages, followed by the Pound key". I found on the wiki (http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk+config+features.conf) that

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

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Good evening, I have something strange, when I add an ALERT_INFO variable to a ring group, the invite generated contains 2 lines with Alert-Info and my phones return a 400 Bad Request... I've checked in my config files, there is only one line with Set(__ALERT_INFO..... Any idea?? PS: I'm using Asterisk Asterisk 1.4.13-BRIstuffed-0.4.0-test4

Does anyone know of a way to setup distinctive ring in * for a Grandstream BT 101? I'm attempting to setup a way for users to distinguish between external and internal calls. I've tried ALERT_INFO with no success. Thanks, Mason Herring Director of Engineering Delta Signal, LLC -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

I've done the unspeakable. I took a working setup of 1.0.5 and upgraded with the latest cvs. with 1.0.5 distinctive ring worked great. with the latest cvs, it doesn't seem to work with my sipura 2000 (the only thing i have to test it with). I can see in console that its sending the info, but its not working? i realize the likely hood is I messed something up somehow during checkout or

Is asterisk able to forward it's ALERT_INFO data to another asterisk server ? My situation should look like the following: Call comes into asterisk1 in SIP. Asterisk1 sets the ALERT_INFO=Bellcore-r2, Asterisk1 dials Asterisk2 (SIP), Asterisk2 dials our SIP device which should ring with the Bellcore-r2 Any way to pass the ALERT_INFO through to the SIP device? Thanks -- Benjamin

I am impressed, I have been trying this for sometime using the SIP image and the only difference I can create is a 'single' and a 'double' ring on the phone. I use the 'single' ring for phone calls and the 'double' ring for the doorbell. I would love to be able to choose a ring tone based on the incoming msn or callerID. The idea of the phone shouting 'Its the

I am trying to get distinctive ringing going again with these phones, depending on the outside line the call comes in on. I had a working 1.0.x Asterisk setup using: SetVar(ALERT_INFO=<http://127.0.0.1/Bellcore-dr2>) Which used the short quick rings. In Asterisk 1.4, I have tried several things, but I think the correct syntax is: Set(_ALERT_INFO=<http://127.0.0.1/Bellcore-dr2>) But

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

Hi there, see subject: Am I right that with current CVS "ALERT_INFO" doesn't work anymore? FYI: This is supposed to select the ring tone on a Cisco 7960. Cheers, Philipp
