similar to: limit simultaneous calls

Is there a way to limit simultaneous calls. I like to limit simultaneous outgoing calls as more than few simulataneous calls are charged by my voip providers. However, I do not want to have any such restriction for internal calls. Thanks Jim

Anyone have an idea how to implement a phone number that can only be called once? The first time it will process normally and any subsequent calls will be rejected.

Dear List; To have better security, how can I put a password on the international calls (if the user dialed the international call, then it will be asked for password to send the call outside)? Can this password read from the CDR file to know whom did these international calls (using which password? As I might have mutliple passwords). Regards Bilal

Hi, I've built an Asterisk HA cluster by means of heartbeat and drbd. The following folders are stored on shared storage and referred to by means of symbolic links: /etc/asterisk /var/lib/asterisk /usr/lib/asterisk /var/spool/asterisk /var/log/asterisk I was under the impression that phone registrations were stored in /var/lib/asterisk/astdb and as such preserved when failing over. But

Hi, I have question regarding Asterisk Local channel. Is it possible to define codec used in Local channel as like in SIP channel?. If it's possible, how do i do it?

Hi all, I have a cheapskate customer whom wants to leverage some cheap all-you-can-eat VoIP connections rather than pay for a per minute provider. On the inbound side I think I have a solution in that I can activate the "call forward on busy" option with his provider (some noname white label house) but how do I balance his outgoing minutes? Is there some way that I can set up a round

Hopefully a fairly easy question for the group... I have a queue which should contain about 10 agents (it will be all the phones in the office). This office is remote, so I would like to add their sip phones into the queue remotely. Also, if the system ever gets reloaded or rebooted, I need those agents to remain in the queue. Question: 1) How do you remotely add agents to their respective

Hi, I've sucessfully completed an Openser 1.3.2 + Mediaproxy 1.9.1 + Asterisk 1.4 + CDRTool with freeradius telephony system. Asterisk is used only for voice mail and redirectioning calls. Every calls should pass through mediaproxy so that i can account them. The goal was to create a simple prototype of what could be a VoIP provider. Now i need to dimensioning this system to work

I've got the ztdummy kernel module loaded and seem to have all the desired prerequisites in place, but Asterisk never seems to compile with MeetMe() application support enabled, nor does there appear to be a module I am failing to load that would contain this application. Is there something really obvious I am missing? Thanks, -- Alex Balashov Evariste Systems Web :

Hi All; I do not know if anyone faced such case in dealing with open vpn (as we need it for fring to be used from the mobile: Which mobile can be used to install the open vpn client on it, so we can use it to do a vpn channel with the server that has open vpn server? Regards Bilal

Hello, I think I have encountered an odd bug in Siemens C460 IP/dect handsets, which is a bit annoying, and I'm not (yet) sure how to get round it without lots of hacks. Basically, on all external incoming calls, we set: exten => s,n,SIPAddHeader(Alert-Info: Bellcore-dr2) This causes handsets (i.e. Cisco 7960 / Grandstream / aastra) to set a different ring cadence so to differentiate

Hi, what could be the maximum simultaneous calls can asterisk do? i read about the asterisk business edition review[1] and it can only handle 120 simultaneous calls? i'm using 1.2.x branch of asterisk and i use more or less 90 simultaneous calls.

I have a customer installation with an Adtran DS3 mux. The DS1's go into my Asterisk servers that run IVR/Call recorders. The DS3 provider is Qwest, and they tell me that they routinely drop the DS3 service to redundant back-up's and that this is a common practice that happens thousands of times to DS3 lines daily across the US without any service interruptions. They say that the

Hi, I have read about SS7 recently and learnt that it is a signalling protocol used in PSTN for call management, setup, etc. The thing that I don't understand is how SS7 plays a role in VOIP. When I make calls between landline and Asterisk via PSTN, I don't need to do anything with SS7. Is it because the SS7 signalling is already done by Asterisk already? From the prespective of

So, is there anyone out there that provides rather generic but comprehensive CNAM-style directory services via SIP, to end-users? So I can put names to my calling numbers? Thanks! -- Alex Balashov Evariste Systems Web : http://www.evaristesys.com/ Tel : +1-678-954-0670 Direct : +1-678-954-0671

Hi, I am requesting for a E1 connection from my telco. They are asking if I want DSS1 or SS7, and I am stuck here. Could someone tell me the difference between the two? How should I decide which one to use? Thanks in advance for your help. Mark -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi, What are the current best practices for running asterisk as SIP B2BUA? Are there any sample configs online or the books that detail this configuration for the newbies? I'm going to run it behind 1:1 NAT for the clients in the public internet so I will use the externip, localnet, and nat settings. Thanks, Andrew
