similar to: Busy notification with call limiting by GROUP_COUNT()

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

I have a macro and when I call it I have something like this: exten => s,1,NoOp(Group Count: ${GROUP_COUNT(MYGROUP)}) exten => s,n,Set(GROUP()=MYGROUP) ;Set Group exten => s,n,NoOp(Group List: ${GROUP_LIST()}) exten => s,n,NoOp(Group Count: ${GROUP_COUNT(MYGROUP)}) The GROUP_COUNT returns zero before the call to GROUP but also returns 0 after the call to GROUP. If I

Hello, this is a test to add a channel to multiple GROUPs. this is my dialplan : exten => s,n,NoOp(groepcount = ${GROUP_COUNT(40)}) exten => s,n,Set(GROUP(40)=40) exten => s,n,NoOp(This channel is member of : ${GROUP_LIST()}) exten => s,n,NoOp(groepcount = ${GROUP_COUNT(40)}) exten => s,n,NoOp(groepcount = ${GROUP_COUNT(40L)}) exten => s,n,Set(GROUP(40)=40L) exten =>

Dear all, Anyone has experience using group and group_count to limit outgoing calls in AGI/CAGI? SET VARIABLE GROUP(${CALLERIDNUM}) OUTBOUND_GROUP EXEC Gotoif $[${GROUP_COUNT(OUTBOUND_GROUP@${CALLERIDNUM})} > 1]?BLOCK SET VARIABLE GROUP(${CALLERIDNUM}) OUTBOUND_GROUP But it doesn't work as it should. Tried in extensions.conf and it works. Any idea. Thanks Ray

I want to limit the number of simultaneous incoming calls that my IAX DID can accept to, say, 2. The IAX DID provider sets no limit. The code below does work, but when the limit is in effect, new callers hear a "call cannot be completed as dialed.." message instead of a busy signal. Maybe this is an issue with the provider, but I do not like this and want callers to hear a busy signal.

Anyone know what the POE draw is for the Aastra 480i phones? We have switches that will do 15 watts on 12 ports but only do 7.7 watts on all 24 ports. A Cisco 3560 switch will do 15.6 watts on all 24 ports. Just trying to find out if we need that much power. Can't seem to find any info on the Aastra site. Comments?

Getting "no service" display on aastra 480i. Sip debug shows an "unathorized" blub when the aastra tries to register. Some reading indicates that 1.4 firmware wants aastra.cfg and mac.cfg in /tftpboot/. There are none. Anyone have basic config files? Or can point me to a good link? All links I have tried, that purport to have config files, are either dead or error out.

I need to provide a 80 people office with VOIP. I want to commit to one vendor Polycom or Aastra. Price of the phones is not a factor in the decision. The quality of the phones is the factor. Some of the features that I am evaluating on are: (arranged in order of priority) 1. Sound quality 2. complete product line with conference phone and receptionist phone (not on Aastra) 3. cordless (not on

Hi Folks, Looking for feedback on the cordless phones with the Aastra 480i CT handset. Is voice quality comparable to standard consumer residential 2.4GHz cordless phones in the US$30 - $50 price range, or better/worse? How about handset and speakerphone quality for the main phone? Seems like there have been various big issues with firmware in past, but is it pretty stable now? Thanks,

I need to buy some new phones for our own offices. I've used only Polycom phones until now, but I'd like to broaden my experience. I'm trying to decide which phones to experiment with. I have these options: - A combination of Polycom, Aastra and Snom - Just Polycom One the one hand, I'd like to keep things uniform, since it greatly simplifies provisioning. On the other hand, I

Does anyone have success in upgrading Aastra/Sayson 480i CT firmware? All I get, no matter what I've tried is "Unable to upgrade firmware". tftpd is working because the dialplan freshens, and I have aastra.cfg whatevermacaddressfile.cfg and firmware.st in /tftpboot Am I missing something stupid? Is there another way to upgrade it? Chris Coulthurst chris@shuksan.com

I have this Aastra 480i phone, and you can set the TFTP server IP address manually in the phone, but there should be a way to have it find the TFTP server information via DHCP. Does anyone know if this is possible, and if so, what is the attribute I have to set on my DHCP server? Thanks! __ Dana Olson Disclaimer: The information transmitted in this message is intended only for the person or

I just bought an Aastra 480i CT for a client who needed cordless capabilities in their office. I'm trying to set up the base station and cordless handset in my office first. I'm able to connect the phone to my Asterisk box and make outgoing calls from either the base station or the handset - to extensions within my office as well as numbers outside the network. But I can't

Does anyone know if it is possible to upload a common directory to all Aastra phones (480i, 9133)? Is there someting equivalent to the way Polycom phones do it? -- Carlos Chavez Director de Tecnolog?a Telecomunicaciones Abiertas de M?xico S.A. de C.V. Tel: +52-55-91169161 Ext 2001

I manage the PBX system for a medium sized call center. Where all calls are distributed via a few call Queues. However I am having an issue where reps are being distributed calls regardless of wether they are on a call. I have looked into using SetGroup but I don't think this works with Call Queues. I have also looked into incomingcalllimit and that seems to no longer work. Any sugestions?

Just found out my maintanence agreement with fonality does not cover phones over a year old. So, of course, they don't repaird phones, only replace them. Very worldly of them... Anyone know where I can get an Aastra 480i repaired? The phone works on speakerphone, but when you lift the receiver offthe hook, the phone does not engage. There is something wrong with the "hook". The

Are the cordless phones on the 480i CT from Aastra registered independently in Asterisk? Such that if I have 5 of the cordless phones hooked up, each one is it's own "extension?" ________________________________ This e-mail, facsimile, or letter and any files or attachments transmitted with it contains information that is confidential and privileged.

Hi, We have a few Aastra 480ci phones and we've noticed that in order to get the phone to receive a call, qualify must be = no. Apparently the Aastras do not respond to the qualify message (or respond in a way Asterisk doesn't understand) and Asterisk thinks the phone is unreachable. However, this now prevents MWI from working properly on the phones. Does anyone know how to get MWI

I have some phones (and an ATA) that are shared between two users who each have separate voicemail but they are not behaving as desired nor expected. Incoming calls show up on the correct lines. Calls originating from the device are seen, at the terminating device, as coming from the account listed last in sip.conf, regardless of the line selected. This creates three main issues I would like
