I'm trying to duplicate a behavior we had with our old avaya system, and I've come across Auto Answer (Ring Answer). However, its not quite the same yet. Right now, when I dial **5053, it will add the SIP header for Ring Answer and it will call 5053. The phone auto pickups just fine. However, we need that call to be muted. If you were to call into a meeting, we wouldn't want them to

Hi List, I need to change my provider, at this time Asterisk box is on VOIP trunk. I have two options, T1 or 15 analog lines. I have some experience with analog and I have had two main issues with it. first is echo (I have not tried HPEC yet) and second unpredictable volume. The question is, if I use TE100 with PRI , will I have same issues? I would appreciate any comments and sample zaptel.conf

Hello all, I currently have all outgoing calls set to mask the caller id so it will always appear to be coming from our main number. The problem I'm having though, is with both the call detail in mysql and with the automon (recording) feature. It shows the originating number as the number I masked it to, rather than the actual person calling. How can I go about having both the destination see

All, I have done research on VoIP for some time now. I'm a Cisco certified Network Engineer however Telecom is not my strongest suit. I've been a part of this mailing list for sometime but my delusions of grandeur in migrating our 25 year old phone system to a new platform have been on the back burner, until now. I have found my company is moving to a new location(building) and this

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone has had much experience with Realtime Asterisk. I like the ability to setup my extensions and voicemail boxes in MySQL, but I have a huge worry. What if MySQL crashes. I played with rtcachefriends, but can't seem to find a way to have asterisk store the extension information to ensure the phones will continue to work even if MySQL has a hiccup. Any

Hi, Did anyone manage to connect either Digium or Sangoma T1 card to any other PBX/gateway using T1 E&M Wink/Wink signaling? I'm trying to connect Avaya Definity to an Asterisk box with T100P and so far no luck. (I know I can do so with ISDN PRI, but need an additional ISDN processor card for Definity.) I tried to connect Definity to Cisco 3640 CCME (call manager express) to test the link

<Correction in my zapata.conf file I used> Hey Everyone, So this is a problem I've been having for sometime now. I sent a few messages to the list with no luck. The problem is that when people dial into the Asterisk system using DID numbers, it works the first time or 2, then I get busy signals. A friend recommended I clear out the zapata and zaptel, start over, and recreate my

So I might have a bit of a more narrow question from my earlier one. Previous, I had been wondering what would cause a phone dialing into a DID that connects to the asterisk box to get a fast busy. I've noticed the following message: chan_zap.c: Ring requested on unconfigured channel 0/1 span 2 Any idea what would give me this error? And would this cause a fast busy? Thanks again everyone

We have a location that is having a really odd issue. We have a sangoma POTs card. We are running software echo cancellation with the card (through asterisk) to try to eliminate some major echoing problems. I've turned on both EC and echotrain, which seemed to have gotten rid of the echo for the most part. However, we are now running into an issue where the outside caller hears a star wars

I'm sure this was asked before, but I can't seem to make this work... If a customer dials one of our DIDs, and the operator transfers that call to another employee, the Caller ID doesn't seem to do what I would expect it to. I would expect it to show the original caller's ID. Example: John calls in from the outside using (213-555-1234) and he calls into the asterisk system

Hey all, I had a user complaining of calls which were dropping mid-conversation. I looked into the time of one of the calls, and saw the following: Apr 4 12:13:03 WARNING[6670] chan_zap.c: No D-channels available! Using Primary channel 28 as D-channel anyway! Apr 4 12:13:05 WARNING[6660] channel.c: Avoided initial deadlock for '0x82b8430', 10 retries! Apr 4 12:13:05 WARNING[6660]

We are trying to use a softphone from a location that is behind a firewall. We are using x-lite as the softphone. So far, we've been able to get the phone to register with the asterisk server, and it can receive voice from the asterisk server (IE, voicemail, etc). However, asterisk can't hear anything from the softphone. We have used 2 different machines to test this on. We are watching

Hi all I have a server that has two TE412P (T1/E1+DSP) cards installed. One of them configured as an E1 PRI connected to PSTN and another one configured as a T1 E&M connected to Avaya PBX. Each card only uses two ports, so there are 2 E1 lines and 2 T1 lines connecting to this server. The purpose of this server is as a TDM trunk gateway that gets call from E1/T1 and then forward to an IP-PBX

hi! First of all i want to tell i have a dedicated server on layeredtech with direct internet connection and i currently dont use iptables, so this is not about network configuration =). well so, i install asterisk-1.4.2 on my server, and next install asterisk-gui from the digium repository. next i go to: http://pbxa.com:8088/asterisk/static/config/cfgbasic.html and install a default

Hello eveybody, I've been looking for a way to share trunks between two asterisk servers. I guest I have to use Dundi, but I've not found the exact method yet. I need a way to allow users registered in one server to use the another server's trunks in the case the first server's trunks were busy and vice versa. Is this possible? Thank you so much, any comment will be useful.

Can anyone recommend software that will allow me to utilize my VoIP provider and send fax over IP? I use Asterisk now for my phone system. Thanks! Wiley E.

I've been able to page to a specific phone (intercom type of thing), but I'd like to have a macro or agi that pages all phones but first checks if their on the phone. It looked like there used to be a pageall.agi type of script on the wiki, but that link isn't valid anymore. Does anyone have that script, or something else that would work? I would just do SIP/1000&SIP/1001, but

Hi all, Here's our setup: Asterisk 1.4.18 Agx-ast-addons 1.4.5 Problem: When accepting a fax, the fax itself comes through just fine, and it does successfully create a tiff file. However, the dialplan should be executing a system command right after that completes, but isn't due to hanging up early. I'm getting a cause 16 hangup, which I believe is a "Normal Hangup", but

I'm having a problem getting my queue to function as it should. After 20 seconds or so, it should prompt the user with a message "thanks for holding..... press # to leave a message or stay on the line to continue holding". I set up the "context" in the queues.conf file, so if a user presses a digit, they should be able to leave. But I get a SIP BUSY message. Here are my
