similar to: blind transfers with IP Polycom 501

We are doing a medium sized office in NYC with 80 phones. The customer originally requested Polycom 601 phones. The COO also authorized us to purchase 2 Grandstream GXP2000 phones for the mail room. We find these phones much easier to configure and work with asterisk . They support BLF & intercom right out of the box. They can also be centrally managed and provisioned. They also sound great

I'm running asterisk 1.2.8. I would like PSTN inbound calls to do the following: 1-once PSTN callers enter their desired extension; they have to record their name 2-recording then announces that it is trying to locate the user 3-asterisk calls local extension and announces callers recorded name 4-local recipient user can choose to take the call, send it to voicemail or transfer it to

Is there any technical difference between a T1 cable and a cat5e patch cable as far as using them with Digium T1/E1 cards? Can PRI circuits terminating at a smart jack connect successfully to Digium cards using straight through CAT5e cables? If so, are they using all of the pins in the cable? Thanks in advance

Does anyone know if sip phones from any of the major IP phone vendors support 802.1x authentication? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I was wondering if people have experienced issues with Cisco 7960G and Asterisk. Any feedback on people's experience deploying this phone in production environments would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

Running Asterisk 1.2.8 kernel 2.6.13.4-1. Everything in my dialplan seems to be working well except for one problem. When calls are blind transferred to an invalid extension I would like the call to go to the operator on ext 1000? What is the best way to do this? Thanks in advance Here's a snippet of my extensions.conf [default] exten=>_10XX,1,Macro(stdexten,${EXTEN},SIP/${EXTEN})

Running Asterisk 1.2.9. I just installed a TE110P card and configured zaptel.conf & zapata.conf. The config files look right to me but I'm getting the following error when trying to start asterisk: Asterisk died with code 1. Automatically restarting Asterisk. Does anyone have any idea what is wrong with this configuration?? Thanks in advance!!! Here's my config files: zaptel.conf

I'm trying to set on-demand call recording. Here's a snippet of the pertinent dialplan. The purpose of this is to allow one user in particular to be able to receive an email recording of the call everytime he dials *91 + number. The problem is that the email is not going out or being generated when I use the ${CALLFILENAME} variable. When I use the actual file name of the gsm recording,

I'm going to be rolling out asterisk at a small office and one requested feature was the ability to have a phone that can be configured so that ringtones can be configured according to the callerid of the caller. Does anyone have Asterisk experience with such a phone? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!!!

Sorry if you see this message repeated twice. I would like to set up hard phones and softphones with the same extension so that when anybody in the company dials an extension, each user's hardphone and softphone will ring at the same time. I've tried setting this up before, but I noticed that the last sip device to register with the same extension is the only one that rings when the

This is a dialpaln issue. I solved the same problem recently. For 4 digit extensions you need to append the dialplan statement in the sip.cfg configuration file as follows <digitmap dialplan.digitmap="[2-9]11|0T|011xxx.T|[0-1][2-9]xxxxxxxxx|[2-9]xxxxxxxxx|[2 -9]xxxT|1xxxT" dialplan.digitmap.timeOut="3"/> Michael > I am not sure what I did but blind transfers do not

I am having a strange problem with polycom 501 and dailing. I've read the archives and no one there specifically mentions this problem, so I thought I'd ask here. The problem is that when the user picks up the receiver or pressed new call, sometimes they will enter a number (for example 95072091234) and in the middle of the number the cursor might jump back one digit. So the call above,

Does anyone know if asterisk supports PLAR (Private Line Auto Ringdown). The Oreilly (Asterisk: Future of Telephony) book mentions it in passing saying that all you need to enable it is to set immediate=yes in zapata.conf. Has anyone implemented this in brokerage trading environments? Thanks in advance. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hey All, I'll be configuring an asterisk box to be the voicemail server to an old Merlin system which had an octel 100 voicemail server that is now dying. My question is simple: do I need to stick an FXO card in the asterisk box? My logic is that if the Merlin Magix system is actually generating electrical current, then I would need to have an fxo card. Is this correct?

Hi, Am running 1.4.18 at the moment, and am trying to implement inline blind transfer. I have : [featuremap] blindxfer => *6 ; Blind transfer in features.conf And in extensions .conf under [globals] : DYNAMIC_FEATURES=automon#blindxfr So what am I missing ?? Have read through http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+config+features.conf Thanks,

I am using Polycom 501s with asterisk 1.2.4. When transfering to call parking wih "#1" -> 700 the user is able to hear asterisk tell him what extension the call was parked on. However, when I press "transfer" -> blind -> 700 . The user is not able to hear what extension the call was parked on. It seems like the polycom is hanging up before asterisk is able to

Hi All - I noticed that the Polycom IP501's are now shipping. Has anyone gotten one yet, and if so, what's different about the phone? Any UI improvements, or is it just better hardware? Thanks, Noah

Thanks. Is there a way I can log into the Merlin Magix to determine that? How else do I tell? ________________________________ From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Eric Germann Sent: Monday, February 05, 2007 8:16 PM To: 'Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion' Subject: RE: [asterisk-users]

Hi, I was planning on getting a Dell PowerEdge 2950 for our new Asterisk configuration. But while searching for documentation about it and/or reported issues, I found this: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+hardware WARNING - many Dell motherboards use the e1000 gigabit ethernet chipset, which has been known to cause random locksup - if you plan on using a Dell server, disable the

I am doing some experimenting with Asterisk 1.0.9 and Polycom IP501's. I have the extensions setup, and everything is working well up to this point. Now, I want to setup my system so that a user at an extension can start a recording on demand. I have tried various Google searches, but am coming up empty. Could someone point me in the right direction, or have some sample Polycom/Asterisk
