Hi guys We're using asterisk 1.8.23.1 on CentOS 5 and are trying to create a trunk to MS Lync server. If I create the peer in sip.conf the trunk connects with no problem. However, we prefer to use ARA. Whenever we define the peer in our peers table, the trunk does not work, even if we use sip show peer <peer-name> load. Has anyone got any experience of connecting to Lync using ARA?

Hi Ever since we upgraded our asterisk servers to 1.8.23.1, we no longer get the 'no matching peer' error when we get a dictionary SIP attack. Now the logs always show a 'wrong password' when there actually isn't a matching peer. We even have alwaysauthreject = yes in our sip.conf. Has anyone else noticed this phenomenon? Thanks in Advance Ish -- Ishfaq Malik

Hi We're using asterisk 1.8.23.1. Our inbound calls are routed into the default context with explicit number matching. If found they are passed on to a distinct context for the number being called using the Goto application. If the call is successful or even if it has no answer, the cdr dcontext field has the correct second context. However, if the call fails or is busy, and even though we

Hi I'm using asterisk 1.8.23.1 but I've seen this same issue in previous versions of 1.8. I have created some work arounds but the behaviour is incorrect. This is the scenario: Call comes in and goes to appropriate dialplan In the dialplan the call is forwarded to another number using a Local channel (and using /n ) e.g. Dial(Local/<my-number>@outbound-context/n,60) The number is

Hi Guys I'm using asterisk 1.8.23.1 When I add a SIP Header from inside the extensions.conf (SIPAddHeader(Alert-Info:<http://www.notused.com>\;info=alert-internal\;x-line-id=0) ) it works fine. When I try to do the same thing from within a database table, all of the string apart from x-line-id=0 gets ignored. I've tried escaping the semicolon and not escaping it and the result is

Hi We're using 1.8.23.1 on CentOS 5 and are trying to get accurate stats for queues. For a particular customer, when I run queue show <queue_name> I get the following numbers: <queue_name> has 0 calls (max unlimited) in 'ringall' strategy (17s holdtime, 94s talktime), W:0, C:175, A:44, SL:48.6% within 45s So from that data we look at 17s holdtime And assume that is the

Hi I'm just about to upgrade to version 1.8.29.0 and have compiled with SRTP. However, we exclusively use the asterisk realtime architecture using the mysql connector. Looking at tutorials we have to set encryption=yes and transport=tls for any peer we want encrypted traffic for. Having a look at contrib/realtime/mysql/sippeers.sql from the source code shows that the encryption column is

Hi Is there any harm in using res_mysql for some things and res_odbc for others? We already use res_mysql for ARA but could do with having CEL logged to MySQL.

Hi I'm using asterisk 1.8 but I'm sure this applies to other versions. If someone puts a call divert on a handset such as a Snom phone I get this type of SIP message on receipt of an inbound call: Got SIP response 302 "Moved Temporarily" back from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxxx Which then triggers a local channel to make the call. Is there any way I can access that IP address inside

Hello asterisk-users, We've been having intermittent issues with chan_sip - it stops responding to cli requests, trying to reload chan_sip from cli doesn't seem to have any effect, initiated calls carry on for a short period, but no new SIP requests are processed ('sip show channels' hangs forever, server stops responding to SIP OPTIONS, or any other SIP messages). We have updated

Hi This is a bit of an exploratory question for groundwork before I start playing with asterisk 12. I've spotted the very useful looking file contrib/realtime/mysql/mysql_config.sql in the source. Are the table names starting ps_ all to do with PJSIP? Direct MySQL connection has been deprecated for quite a while, will I need to use ODBC for PJSIP or will it be supported by the old

Hi people Just having a quick check to see if anyone is using any AMI proxies and which are the most popular. For our purposes it must be able to connect to multiple asterisk instances.

Does anyone on this list use pyst for AMI purposes? If so, can you point me in the direction of some simple examples. There seems to be none anywhere online. Probably doesn't help that I'm not that experienced at python but not insurmountably so.

Hi I'm using asterisk 1.8. How are channel names constructed. I always thought they were <technology>/<peer>-<hex counter> but I've had a lot of instances where a channel name doesn't have the correct peer as part of it. Is it unwise to use channel names to extract the peers involved in a call? -- Ishfaq Malik Department: VOIP Support Company: Packnet Limited
