Hi all. I'm in the process of configuring a phone system for my family and friends. I'm wondering if I should try to implement the "Vertical Services" (http://www.nanpa.com/number_resource_info/vsc_assign) in the Asterisk dialplan, or if I should delegate those functions to the various ATA's. For example, the Sipura SPA 2002 can handle*69 internally. On the other

Hi all, While trying to track down a T.38 issue, I came across a series of log entries like this: ============================================================================ [Jan 26 10:23:31] WARNING[32508]: udptl.c:948 ast_udptl_new_with_bindaddr: Unable to allocate socket: Too many open files [Jan 26 10:23:31] ERROR[32508]: acl.c:488 ast_ouraddrfor: Cannot create socket

I am looking for a simple way to send occasional faxes via the FXO port on my SPA3102 -- without having to connect a fax modem to an ATA. In an ideal world, this would be some sort of "softfax" that runs on my Linux desktop and talks (via Asterisk) to the SPA3102 with T.38. This is one of those things that I thought would be relatively straightforward, but a couple of hours of Googling

Hi all, I seem to be having a strange problem with a sip trunk. On a fairly frequent basis, I'll make a call, ore receive a call, and there will be NO sound. The strange part is that both endpoints are public IP addresses so NAT isn't in play and a sniffer trace reveals that the packets simply aren't being sent. It only seems to happen on a particular trunk. The same phone

Hi all, I'm trying to tighten things up a bit and I seem be be running into something that doesn't make sense to me. I've got 2 contexts, one for customers, and one for guests, that I include into [customers] and [default], in extensions.conf, as below: ============================================================= [default] include = dial_GUEST [customers] include = parkedcalls

Hi all, Lately, I've been seeing more and more instances where I get a flood of warning messages like this: [Apr 26 14:09:50] WARNING[21054] udptl.c: No UDPTL ports remaining The next thing I know, my server is dropping calls and starting to misbehave. I use fax via T.38, so I can't just turn udptl off. I could expand the port range, but I suspect that will just mask the situation.

Hello everyone- I recently read the thread entitled "Faxing Success Rate on PRI" which dealt with Asterisk/HylaFax/IAXmodem. I'm successfully using this 'recipe' in a few instances on systems with only a couple of analog lines all the way up to a full PRI worth of Iaxmodems. However, I'm finding that I'll need to scale upwards in the coming months and would like to

Hi all, I've got a problem where many times, there is silence at the first 1-2 seconds of a call. Then it clears up and it's crystal clear. I've not put a sniffer on it, yet, but I suspect that the media channel is still being set up. The server shouldn't be too overloaded. Can anyone give me some advise on how to solve/mitigate this problem? Mike.

Hello everybody I am trying to connect my asterisk to a payment equipment trough PSTN. I have a TDM400P card with an fxs module an the equipment use modem to send data! I was thinking to implement a software data modem in asterisk, but I found out that there is just faxmodem for asterisk, Is anyone here know something about software data modem working with asterisk to help out? Thanks,

I am quite new to Linux and have moved (almost) from a windoze NT4 environment. My present configuration is running SuSE V 8.0 with KDE3.0.5 desktop on two machines, connecting with Samba to an NT4 PC, and an occasional laptop or other PC that connects locally to the network. After a deal of searching, researching, and seeking advice I have decided to use Shorewall as my firewall.

Hi all, I'm installing Hylafax on my Asterisk system. From what I've read, I can either use IAXModem or T38Modem to provide the virtual fax device. So at the risk of starting a religious war, which one should I use? I don't mind running IAX if I have to. I want as much flexibility and stability as I can get. So, what are your recommendations? Mike. -------------- next part

Ok, ok, I know there has been plenty of discussion on asterisk and fax - from this I understand: 1) First and foremost, use g.711 ulaw 2) Packet loss, etc...makes faxing over the internet unreliable My need is for a fax to come in on a X100P and be forwarded to a fax machine on the local lan. I don't currently have any fxs as I'm using all sip phones at this point. I see the

Hi, I've managed to get HYLAFAX---->T38MODEM----->ASTERISK---->CISCOAS5400 working, but when they are negotiating asterisk drops a message telling "Unknown RTP codec 96 received from gateway" Do somebody know how to fix it ? Thank you ! << [ TYPE: Control (4) SUBCLASS: Ringing (3) ] [SIP/GWCISCO5400O-600bfcc8] << [ TYPE: Control (4) SUBCLASS: Answer (4) ]

Hi all, Is it possible to send a SIP header to a PAP2T or SPAxxxx and cause the device to automatically answer? I can do this with my Polycom phones and would like to do it with my ATA's. Any ideas? -- Take care and have fun, Mike Diehl.

Hi all, I need to be able to delete a voicemail message using a program. Is is sufficient to simply delete the .wav and .txt files in the spool directory? Or do I need to also renumber the remaining files? For example, let say a given mailbox has 20 messages in it and I want to delete message number 5. Can I just delete the 2 files and expect that asterisk will renumber them? Or do I

Hi all. I'm looking to change from a standard telephone line to a VoIP phone line at home. I'm looking for recommendations for VoIP providers that I can use with Asterisk. One of the catches is that I often telecommute and sometimes I do some side business; these practices violate many provider's acceptable use policies. So, I need a provider who doesn't care how I use the

Aloha, We are looking to roll a solution that will have the following network layout: ISDN-PRI <--> Asterisk <--> T.38 <--> ATA <--> Fax Does version 1.8 with the Digium fax driver have this capability? I like 1.8 because it is a long term support version. What ATA's are people using? Any working solutions would be great! Aloha, Matt

Hi all, I have 2 servers running 1.6.2.9 and I'm about to build a third server. This suggests the possibility of doing a rolling upgrade of all of my servers. This brings up the question of what version to install and upgrade to. I don't have many upgrade opportunities, so I'd like to get as much bang for my buck. Since I've applied some custom patches to my 1.6, I'd

I've just upgraded to 1.6.2.6 on one of my test systems. I started out happy, with some improvements in transfers to Local() channels from a SIP channel, and much nicer verbose fax handling. However, something is really weird when I need to do System() calls. It was really, really weird. This was also affecting AGI, when I needed to read system variables from asterisk into an AGI Perl script.

Hello all, I've played with background and play sounds apps and googled around and asked the list before to no avail. Does anyone know of a way to have tones played during the call progress stage of the call? We (especially on some international circuits) get up to 5 seconds of silence before the phone starts ringing or is busy. I don't want to force "R" on the Dial app as
