similar to: RedFone foneBRIDGE2 2e1 - anyone used it oranother TDMoE bridge?

I've been asked to look at deploying Asterisk in a high availability environment and I've been looking so I've been searching for methods to decouple the voice PRI circuits from the Asterisk server so failover to another server could take place. I've been looking at the RedFone foneBRIDGE2 2e1 product here:

Hi, I'm wondering what the best option to obtain a high availability asterisk server is. I currently use a TE410P (4 x E1) card. I'm thinking of 2 different solutions: - 2 servers configured with Heartbeat + DRBD (drbd mainly for voicemail....) and the E1 span plugged to the 2 servers (with a TE410P in each server). - 2 servers configures with Heartbeat + DRBD with the E1 span hooked

I'm looking for reports of recent experience with redfone fonebridge2 (with echo can) TDMoE gizmos. Anybody? Good? Bad? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

We have been using Red-fone foneBridge2 Quad T1/E1 for last few years. As these devices are not available anymore, we are looking for alternatives. Are there any similar devices available ? -- Regards, Tirveni Yadav www.udyansh.org What is this Universe ? From what it arises ? Into what does it go?

I'm scoping out HA for a relatively simple Office/Call Center PBX. Current setup uses a TE412P with 4 PRI our telco with SIP hard/soft phones for users. Some outbound also goes to a SIP provider. Active/Active looks to be too much hassle for an installation this size, so we're looking at adding an extra * in an active/passive configuration with Linux-HA in between them. Does anyone

Hello List Does anybody have any experience with the FoneBridge line of products from RedFone? I think their HA implementation sounds interesting, and like the prospect of having dedicated hardware for our PRI connections. Kind Regards Jon Leren Sch?pzinsky

We tried them out early last year when we were looking at a large deployment and they gave us a lot of the redundancy that we wanted. However we did run into issues where calls seemed to get caught up in the system. It was as far as we could tell rather random. No consistency to it at all. Asterisk hung up the call but the telco side of the line didn't actually hang up. The channel was left

I've been evaluating Asterisk for a while, and things seem to be going very well. The issue of redundancy and automatic fail-over is now on my mind. I searched the archives and googled for solutions, but didn't really come up with much. We'll be using queues (modified), which precludes some of the standard redundancy solutions, since the queue needs to know all the agents

First, Something seems to be wrong with the list. I'm not the only person who has expressed seeing their messages either arrive late, or not at all. With that out of the way.. Is anyone aware of any type of failover device for PRI on asterisk? I've found the ISDNGuard, however it is currently not made in the U.S., nor does it run on U.S. power. Is anyone aware of a device that will

Hello, I want to create channel bank in this case: "channel bank" |-----------------------------------------| | FXS,FXO<----->TDMoE<--|---------------------------------->Asterisk |-----------------------------------------| How can it?

Hi list, I recently purchased an ISDNguard from Junghanns. It came with no software and there is no sign on their website or in any of their documentation where to download it. I have looked in http://www.junghanns.net/downloads/ and there is no sign of it there either. The only thing remotly close ther is isdnguard-asterisk-1.2.13.patch. Their documentation refers to /usr/sbin/ISDNguard. Where

Hello, I'm trying to decide between the foneBRIDGE2 ($1135) and foneBRIDGE2-EC ($1610). Has anyone here directly compared the two? Would we really suffer without the onboard echo cancellation? The manufacturer's site doesn't really give much helpful information about choosing one over the other. Thanks. -- Kevin DeGraaf

Hi I've published my Asterisk/foneBRIDGE2/heartbeat setup: config files, scripts... along with a brief description of the architecture and working of the cluster. It's available here: http://www.bisente.com/blog/2007/08/26/asterisk-cluster-fonebridge2/? lan=english Hope somebody finds it useful. :) Regards -- Vicente Aguilar <bisente at bisente.com> |

Hi all, I recently purchased a Junghanns ISDNguard and to my horror I found out: - Junghanns technical support is non-existant - I can't use it without recompiling Asterisk with res_watchdog My situation: - Recompiling Asterisk with thrid party code is not an option us - We only need it for manual failover - don't require all the fancy monitoring stuff I need a simple shell script

Hey guys, I am trying to diagnose a hum in my FXO lines I am using an Adtran 750 with 8 FXO ports. I am getting a pretty bad hum on the line during a call. I have checked the Telco side of the 66 block and there is no hum there so it's my problem to fix. I have tried to lower the gain but that reduces the call volume to much. Where else should I be looking? Setup as follows Dell

Ok Guys, I've done a tonne of hunting around on this problem, but can't find much help. I'm running: asterisk 1.4.19.1 libpri 1.4.3 and zaptel 1.4.9.2 which I believe has been modified by RedFone to add the ztd-ethmf module. My interface is a RedFone foneBridge2 4 Span; and I'm connecting to a BT E1 PRI / ISDN30e with 15 lines on span 1, and a legacy Panasonic PBX on span 4. Upon

Hi list, Last Friday, an Asterisk server became unresponsive after ~8,5 months of smooth operation (~320000 calls). Server did reply to pings, but no ssh, no more console login. Also Asterisk no longer took calls, but ISDNguard watchdog was still alive. Looking at the logs after reboot, I could not find anything significant, except in a file created by the following command via a cron job:

asterisk. If asterisk fails, it will automatically fail the PRI over to your backup machine. Can you manually force the failover? I think so, but I'm not positive. You can ask the failsafevoip people directly. I've exchanged emails with them before and they are knowledgeable and responsive. > It would be nice to have a way to gracefully switch boxes, e.g. all new > calls to

Hi All Does anyone have any ideas around what processing power is needed when bridging PRI channels and recording? I am not sure how the bridging takes place with and without recording? I basically have a situation like this: Telko <----> Asterisk <-----> Legacy PBX Where the lines are PRI's between Telko and Asterisk and Asterisk and the Legacy PBX. At what level does

Hi, I tried "upgrading" from debian's 1.4.21.2 package to vanilla 1.4.22 but then my TE410P alarms stay RED and no zap channels can be created, even if they are correctly listed by "zap show channels". I tried adding "dahdichanname = no" to asterisk.conf's [options] to no effect. Going back to 1.4.21.2 brings my alarms back to OK. This is with zaptel
