similar to: Ring-Answer with Polycom 501 and Asterisk

I'm stumped on this one and any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm just trying to get my Polycom 601 to have multiple extensions on it. For example, on line 1 I want extension 21, on line 2 I want extension 22, and on line 3 I want extension 23. Ideally I'd actually have each extension appear on 2 lines and therefore filling up all 6. I should be able to do that with the

hi there I'm setting up asterisk@home and I'm using Polycom IP 500 phones. When I call a number that has a digital receptionist (i.e. "dial 1 or such and such, dial 2 for this and that...") the Polycom doesn't seem to send the extra digits. When I try it with X-Lite things appear to work fine, so I think the problem is with the Polycom configuration. Here's some

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, I've been meaning to fix my non-working paging feature here for a while, and I've just spent the last 5 hours looking at many, many web pages that all say the same thing. I am using Asterisk 1.6.2.18 and Polycom phones, both older (501 with "latest" legacy 3.1.7 firmware) and newer (335 and 650 with latest 3.3.1f). I have changed the correct values in sip.cfg like

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 just moved many Polycom phones from firmware v3 to 4.0.1b. Anto-Answer simply stopped functioning. I can downgrade and make it work, upgrading kills it again. There obviously is a difference in how the newer firmware is treating this auto answer sip header. Can anybody tell me if they have Polycom firmware 4.x.x working with auto-answer/paging? Just so I know it's worth my time

I was hoping that someone may be able to shed some light on some issues I'm having on trying to get an Asterisk test server up and running. At the moment I have the basics, two Polycom hard phones (301 & 601 with expansion unit (which oddly will not power up)) that can call each other, log into voicemail (one touch) and have custom directories & buddy lists. Unfortunately some of the

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

Hi, My phones stopped auto-answering when being paged, since I moved on to Polycom firmware 3.3.0 (3.3.1 is the same, I tried). That is with Asterisk 1.6.2.16. I looked at the wiki but nothing I try there works, even if I cut and paste the same setup. Any one has any idea of what I should change from my old 3.2.3 setup? My older phone (501) still using 3.1.6 still auto-answer

(new asterisk user - currently setting up Polycom IP600 phones) Does anyone know if it's possible to make a sip phone instantly pick up on speakerphone when a particular call comes in? Eg so that you can quickly bother someone across the office without making them reach for their phone?

I was trying to get my polycom phone to auto answer. I added this to the dialplan. Used a different phone to call "22" and the phone rang it did not auto answer. Did I miss something? exten => 22,1,SipAddHeader(Call-Info:=\;answer-after=0) exten => 22,n,SipAddHeader(Alert-Info: Ring Answer) exten => 22,n,Set(__SIPADDHEADER=Call-Info:\;answer-after=0) exten =>

I am using SugarCRM together with the asterisk plugin, which allows me to click a number, SugarCRM calls my extension then places the call when I pickup. I would like to have that extension auto-answer. I set it up as line 3 on my phone so normal calls do not get auto-answered. However, I have not been able to get this to work. Has anyone implented this? This is what I put in the config file

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

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 all - This isn't really directly Asterisk related, but has anyone successfully set up a Polycom phone to register two lines on two different Asterisk boxes? I can get the first line to register, but the second one does not. I can still place calls from that second line, which indicates to me the server, user, and secret are correct. I'm running the newest 2.6 series firmware with the

Hi all, My company has pretty much standardized on Polycom phones and I am in the beginning phase of writing a GUI for administering/managing polycom provisioning at multiple sites which we intend to release as OS. I've started studying the docs and I'm having trouble understanding the following xml attribute: voIpProt.SIP.requestValidation.x.request.y.event I understand what it

I am trying to configure a Polycom IP4000 for use with Asterisk 1.4.5 on a flat local network. I followed the provisioning guides that I found on the Web, and I have the phone downloading bootrom.ld, sip.ld, and a bunch of configuration files. This all works properly. However, I receive the following error: NOTICE[27345]: chan_sip.c:14725 handle_request_register: Registration from

Hi, One of my users is in trouble with his polycom phone hooked to an asterisk server. The phone works fine for a few days, and then disappears from the registered sip peers in asterisk. The user is able to place outbound phone calls, but can't receive incoming calls until the network plug is unplugged/plugged. Working line XXYYZZAA24/XXYYZZAA24 10.50.5.186 D A 5060
