01:02.11HQuestso, uhh
01:02.51HQuestI'm trying to get an install of AsteriskNow! going as a proof of concept that we can do an in-house digital PBX since we're a small business of only 4-5 people
01:03.14HQuestand one of the conditions is that I have to get the gui up on the server in addition to being able to remote in to it
01:04.05HQuestdoes any form of X even ship on AsteriskNow!? I tried to install it and even gnome (for my boss's sake) with Yum, but it was a failure to launch
01:04.28HQuestis there a web browser or anything I can just open to see the config gui?
01:10.34p3nguinhquest: Even though this isn't the AsteriskNOW channel, I'll try to explain it briefly...
01:11.07HQuestohh, sorry. I didn't think to look for a channel specifically for AsteriskNow!
01:11.39p3nguinAsteriskNOW is a CentOS Linux distro with Asterisk pre-installed and your choice of FreePBX, the Asterisk GUI, or no GUI at all.
01:12.27p3nguinIf you choose a GUI option, the system is to be administered from the web, from another computer on the network.
01:12.33funkylonehatHey guys, asterisk 1.8 timing off dahdhi, i have issues with voice quality when people are on calls and supervisors attempt to monitor using chanspy
01:13.28funkylonehati've checked on the boards, usually a timing issue, but mine's correct.
01:13.29p3nguinIf you choose the no GUI option, you administer the system like any regular asterisk deployment -- via ssh or the system console.
01:14.22p3nguinhquest: Does this adequately answer your question?

01:14.37correticohi
01:14.40correticoI need help
01:15.13correticoWhen i start asterisk... I get the following message: SETTING FILE PERMISSIONS
01:16.49HQuestp3nguin, not particularly, but I may be better served by the AsteriskNOW or CentOS rooms. What I want to know is how to access the gui locally from the server. I'm not well versed in console commands, and I don't know if any versions of X or any browsers are in the install

01:22.44p3nguinI feel that I addressed that part quite well.
01:22.48snadgei unfortunately have a voip only line.. and occasionally need to send/receive a fax.. like once in a blue moon
01:23.12snadgethere are various email -> fax gateways out there.. but the majority of them cost money etc.. and its not something i do often enough to really justify that
01:23.47funkylonehatasterfax?
01:23.50snadgeis sending faxes over sip worth bothering with? or is it too problematic
01:24.22funkylonehatdepends on how your sip trunk terminates into the PSTN really
01:24.51snadgeno idea.. i use "nodephone" which is part of internode, a fairly large aussie isp
01:25.02funkylonehatSimilar thing for us, pure sip environment --> cisco gateway --> E1 service.
01:25.03HQuestp3nguin, I understand that, but part of the condition to get this up is that I need to be able to manage it locally right from the server, but I guess I will go to a general linux room or the CentOS room to ask to install it
01:25.23funkylonehatpotentially may work, what codec do you use?
01:25.31snadgebut it gives me a local phone number.. which i can receive and make calls with
01:25.55snadgewell.. i dont actually use it at all to be honest.. and the rare occasion i have, its been with a soft phone
01:26.03snadgei have setup asterisk before for work though, with a similar isp
01:26.18p3nguinhquest: I've given you the answer twice.  If you use a GUI option, you manage it from ANOTHER COMPUTER ON YOUR NETWORK.
01:26.20funkylonehatcodec?
01:26.57snadgei dont know .. i didnt pay much attention to the codec.. i know one of them costs money and im probably not using that one
01:27.23snadgeso i guess considering i just want to be able to send or receive a fax occasionally.. i would use whatever codec is likely to be the most successful for that purpose
01:28.12p3nguinTo send faxes, you'll need to use g.711.
01:28.13p3nguinulaw or alaw
01:28.22funkylonehatyeah.
01:28.28snadgeis that proprietary?
01:28.33p3nguinNo.
01:28.34funkylonehatno
01:28.37funkylonehatlol
01:28.53funkylonehatprovider needs to have fax protocol passthrough enabled
01:28.54snadgeok excellent.. well.. the sucky part is, im using ubuntu.. is that going to be an issue? :P
01:29.02p3nguinNo.
01:29.18snadgeexcellent is packaged for ubuntu
01:30.02funkylonehatI'm having chanspy issues with 1.8 and dahdi timing
01:30.16snadgenow i need to read up on asterisk for ubuntu, and asterfax
01:31.18p3nguinI don't know anything about asterfax, but you can use fax for asterisk.
01:31.29p3nguinThere's even a free channel license.
01:32.58HQuestare there any free SIP providers around right now?
01:33.04HQuesteven just for a single number?
01:33.12p3nguinYes.

01:34.15p3nguinI don't know of any providers offering free termination.
01:35.59p3nguinsnadge: FFA is pretty simple to use.  Since I don't even know what asterfax is, I can't rate it.
01:49.27HQuestfor gui management, do you guys recommend the Asterisk GUI or the FreePBX gui?
01:50.03snadgewhy is the digium download site asking me what cpu variant im downloading for?
01:50.30snadgebarcelona, core2, generic, nocona, opteron and opteron_sse3
01:50.40snadgei have a bulldozer cpu
01:50.56snadgedoes it matter?

01:53.39p3nguinMost of us here don't recommend any GUI.  GUIs just complicate things beyond all recognition, making it impossible to do things like a normal admin would.
01:54.16snadgei used freepbx at work.. because i couldn't be bothered reading things and learning how they work
01:54.16p3nguinsnadge: If you feel like it doesn't matter what kind of CPU you have, get the generic build.
01:54.37snadgebut this is apparently ignorant, and lazy.. guilty :p
01:55.15p3nguinI won't touch a system that someone else has crapped up with FreePBX unless it is to remove FreePBX.
01:55.40snadgeat the moment im forcing myself to learn about how to make my own email to fax gateway, simply because i can't justify paying a monthly service fee for something i might use twice per year
01:56.09snadgeim inclined to go with Fax for Asterisk because its free for a single concurrency and its supported by digium
01:56.16p3nguinIf you NEED a GUI, you're probably best to use FreePBX, since there is fairly reasonable support for FreePBX in the #FreePBX channel.
01:57.10bbourdageWhat is typically the cause of this error ? WARNING[2297]: pbx.c:8134 add_priority: Unable to register extension '174', priority 1 , I am getting them for every extension in the dial plan, I have looked for duplicate includes everywhere ?
01:57.11snadgei think the network latency issues associated with faxing via sip.. may be mitigated somewhat by using the voip provider which is local to the isp im connected to
01:57.23snadgevia an adsl2 connection
01:57.39snadgetheres one way to find out anyway
01:58.13p3nguinIt isn't latency that destroys VoIP -- it's jitter.
01:58.29p3nguinBut ridiculously high latency will also be bad.
01:58.48snadgewell.. hopefully as the voip server is pretty much local.. the jitter will be better
01:58.56snadgethan trying to use a free sip provider on another continent (for example)
01:59.13p3nguinI'd say it's a safe presumption, but you should still check it out to be sure.
02:03.04snadgewell i can only try it anyway.. if it works.. yay
02:07.54HQuestthanks for the help, p3nguin
02:09.10snadgehmm.. there doesnt seem to be documentation for using asterisk packages for ubuntu
02:09.19snadgei found reference to installing it from source.. but this appears to be outdated
02:09.42snadgeprecise (12.04 dev version) comes with asterisk 1.8.4.4
02:09.46p3nguinIt should be in the asterisk wiki.
02:13.31p3nguinIf you haven't already found it:  https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+Packages

03:54.41p3nguinsnadge: The fax to email part is cake.  I can show you how to handle that part within a minute -- it's all dial plan.  Email to fax is a little different; you have to set up the interface so that you send email to a specific address and everything gets set it motion.
03:55.32p3nguinIf I had to build email to fax, I'd figure out how to run a script when a specific email address receives a mail, then the script would build a call file which would send the fax.

03:59.20nzkiwi1we have run a lot of tests and we are 98% sure we know what the problem is with yealink T28P and asterisk TLS
03:59.46nzkiwi1has anyone else had any issues with Yealink and TCP/TLS modes?
04:00.22sawgoodYou want to use a Yealink with TCP for SIP?
04:00.37nzkiwi1TLS actually but TCP doesn't work either
04:01.18sawgoodoh encryption ...
04:01.37sawgoodI have not done that with a Yealink phone, but I've been using Yealink stuff for a long time
04:02.32snadgethis is my first time setting up asterisk without freepbx
04:02.50p3nguinWelcome to the real world.
04:02.51nzkiwi1at this stage I am 98% sure we have nailed it and I just want to find other people wit these problems before going back to Yealink with the results
04:02.53snadgenot sure whether to edit the default sip.conf .. or just copy an example
04:03.26nzkiwi1I code my sip.conf from a blank page
04:03.43p3nguinsnadge: The sample files are not suitable for direct drop-in use, but some are very close.
04:03.48snadgewell when you see things like "insecure=very" thats a tad concerning
04:04.05snadgethis is an example file for my provider nodephone (internode isp) from a few years ago
04:04.12snadge2008 ;)
04:04.19snadgethe other examples are even earlier.. 2005
04:04.23p3nguinThere is no more "very".  There's "port", "invite", and "port,invite".
04:04.40p3nguinIf they say very, they mean port,invite.
04:05.02nzkiwi1I think it is only insecure=invitew now
04:05.10nzkiwi1that works for me
04:05.48p3nguinI just looked over the sample sip.conf, and it looks safe to drop in and modify to your own needs.
04:06.45p3nguinThe obsoleted "very" value is equal to "port,invite".  insecure=port,invite
04:07.21p3nguinBut only use either value if you need it.
04:09.00p3nguinsnadge: Do not attempt to use the sample extensions.conf.  It is not intended to be used on a real system.
04:10.18snadgefirst things first i guess.. i just want to be able to place and receive voip calls with my provider
04:10.28snadgethen figure out a way to use the installed fax for asterisk.. to send and receive faxes
04:11.51p3nguinSet up a sip peer entry for the provider.  Which provider are you using?
04:12.06snadgenodephone from internode (aussie isp0
04:12.20snadgeand i read in their faq that they support t38.. happy days ;)
04:12.25p3nguinAh, I don't have a peer definition for them.
04:12.49snadgei have found some vague references to peoples config files on the net.. but nothing "official"
04:13.36p3nguinLet me share a couple of my ITSP peer entries.
04:15.16p3nguinFlowroute example:  http://pastebin.com/657mLaLm
04:15.57snadgeso you dont need a register line?
04:16.36p3nguinOne moment.  I'll add that.

04:19.21snadgeso [general] is not needed ?
04:19.26dijibroot
04:19.53p3nguinEach of these is just an example of a single peer entry.
04:20.01p3nguinYou still need the rest of sip.conf.

04:25.00snadgeahh cool thanks
04:25.29jamesmillsHey guys. I have this problem I've been trying to work out for the last couple of days. Basically in the pcaps I'm seeing phones sending an INVITE, asterisk not responding, the phone re-sending another INVITE and this occuring 5-6 times with a delay of 5-6s before asterisk finally respond.
04:25.31jamesmillsAny ideas?
04:25.53jamesmillsWould this have to do with settings in /etc/asterisk/asterisk.conf in [options] ... maxload, maxcalls, etc?
04:26.24jamesmillsHow do I display what the current settings actually are? The entire [options] section in my asterisk.conf is commented out
04:29.28p3nguinsnadge: You may want to refresh that.  I had to delete an obsoleted setting.

04:33.55p3nguinHave you read the book?
04:34.25p3nguinRegister statements must be in the general section, above any peers, and above the authentication section if it exists.
04:35.05p3nguinMy sip.conf working example shows where a register statement belongs.
04:38.07snadgeyeah your example has it in between alwaysauthreject and localnent
04:38.33snadgeits hard when using the example sip.conf as a reference to figure out where you should put it
04:39.07p3nguinThe book should explain those details.
04:39.12snadgeit might be easier for me to delete all the comments
04:39.19snadgeand keep a backup of the original
04:43.05p3nguinAs I mentioned, I looked over the included sample sip.conf and it looks like it is safe to drop in and use, but modify it to suit your needs.  Use my example as a guideline if necessary.

04:48.44snadgethats an extension right?
04:49.24p3nguinNo, that's a phone.
04:49.31p3nguinThe phone's name is 00001234FFFF-a
04:49.46p3nguinIn that example, the phone named 00001234FFFF-a will be using extension 123.

04:51.05p3nguinAlso...
04:51.09p3nguin~devices
04:51.09infobotDevices, extensions, and people should be entirely abstracted.  Extension numbers are applied to people, and people are applied to devices.  This means you should name your devices something unique to each device, such as an ID tag or asset tag number, or a MAC address.
04:51.29p3nguinDo not confuse an extension number with a device's name.  They are not the same.
04:53.11Tyrael1Anybody have any Aastra experience?
04:53.38snadgeok well im just going to be using a softphone to connect to it.. with extension 1
04:53.45snadgewhich is highly original
04:54.15p3nguinAnd the phone's device name for going in sip.conf is going to be... ?
04:54.20p3nguin[myphone] ?
04:54.29snadgethat will do yeah :)
04:55.07p3nguinSo to associate the phone with extension 1, in the dial plan, you'll end up with:  exten => 1,1,Dial(SIP/myphone)
04:55.27snadgeok that makes sense
04:55.50p3nguinIn my example, you can see how I made an association using the callerid and the accountcode.
04:57.24snadgeahh i see you didnt paste an example extensions.conf to go with it

05:14.31p3nguinsnadge: That example extensions.conf also has the fax-to-email dial plan in it.
05:14.32snadgecheers.. i just kind of realised that you cant run asterisk and a softphone on the same box
05:14.35ChannelZI don't think parking is a function like hold.. it's only a feature code (?)

05:14.51snadgeits complaining about port 5060 being in use ;)
05:14.53p3nguinYou /can/ run them both on the same system, but don't.
05:15.18[TK]D-FenderYou can run them on the same system... just change the PORT on one
05:15.19p3nguinDepending on the phone, you may be able to change the server port of the phone.
05:15.54snadgeyeah its twinkle.. it has a SIP port option which defaults to 5060 and an RTP option which defaults to 8000
05:16.07p3nguinIt is easy to change in twinkle.
05:16.16p3nguinJust change it to something like 5061.
05:16.18Tyrael1@ChannelZ I think you're right, I have just encountered documentation that said something about putting asterisk:700 in the park button's config... My boss insists it can be done without DTMF tones...
05:17.42ChannelZwell I should say you can transfer to a park extension, it doesn't have to actually be a feature-code #700 type thing
05:18.00ChannelZso if you can macro that in the phone somehow..
05:18.32Tyrael1hmmm... sounds like it could just work... give me a few to try
05:20.32Tyrael1only thing it does that i dont like then is that it will announce to the caller what park they are... but I can turn that off right? then just rely on BLFs
05:20.48Tyrael1but you're right... setting it up as a transfer does work
05:22.09snadgehmm.. registration failed.. no matching peer found
05:22.24p3nguinI guess you put the wrong thing in the fields.
05:22.25ChannelZI've never actually used feature code park, but transfer park should only announce to the person parking, not the parked.
05:22.40p3nguinWhat did you name your phone in sip.conf?  It's the name between the square brackets.
05:24.30snadgemyphone
05:26.05p3nguinIn the User profile, you put an arbitrary name for Your name, myphone in User name and in Authentication name, and whatever secret you defined in the Password field?
05:26.26snadgeahh thats the problem
05:26.48snadgemy name is set to "myphone" username is set to "1"
05:27.22p3nguinYou indicated that 1 would be the extension number used to reach the phone.  The phone does not need to know the extension number.
05:28.44snadgei made an assumption that accountcode=1 would set the username to 1

11:43.14kaldemarsrini: or list the devices in the dial command, like Dial(SIP/foo&SIP/bar)
11:43.42v0lZyWIMPy: reality check... my ISP just routes a sip trunk to me... no username, no password.... they claim their configuration doesnt support username authentication
11:43.45srinikaldemar, so we cannot generalize them?
11:44.12v0lZyis this kind of bullshit or is there any truth to this? I cant understand why you'd hard route traffic that way...
11:44.13kaldemarsrini: but what are you really aiming at? dialing multiple phones at once or one single phone from a defined group of phones?
11:44.56sriniDialing sigle phone from a defined group depending on which one is free
11:45.15WIMPyv0lZy: As we don;t know their software it's hard to say. Maybe they just don't know how to use it, or did a config system that doesn't support it.
11:45.32kaldemarsrini: maybe a queue is what you want. see "core show application Queue" and queues.conf.sample.
11:45.54kaldemarsrini: or maybe http://www.asteriskdocs.org/en/3rd_Edition/asterisk-book-html-chunk/asterisk-ACD.html would be a better start.
11:46.11v0lZymight be that they dont know how to use it a
11:46.31v0lZyI mean... seriously... its friggin stupid they want me to do 1 to 1 nat for rtp....
11:47.01v0lZyfunny thing, got it working yesterday
11:47.03WIMPyI don't see what that has to do with RTP.
11:47.03v0lZybut its not working now
11:47.06srinikaldemar, Great Help! Thanks! Looks like thats what I am looking for!
11:52.16v0lZyalwso
11:52.29v0lZyWIMPy: i'm getting SIP from one ip (signalisation) they call it)
11:52.32v0lZyand RTP from another
11:55.33snadgeim so close.. i have t38 incoming faxes working.. but i cant send
11:56.49v0lZyWIMPy: ... huh.... Feb 22 12:51:01 asterisk[1462]: NOTICE[1497]: chan_sip.c:25290 in sip_poke_noanswer: Peer 'SIP-PROVIDER-19089295184f44cc87c3de5' is now UNREACHABLE! Last qualify: 0
11:57.16snadgei have a script which generates a call file.. but it doesnt appear to work, im not sure how to correctly invoke it
11:57.35v0lZywhats this sip_poke_noanswer
11:58.11kaldemarsnadge: make sure your script does not copy but moves the file to the spool. it needs to be an atomic filesystem operation.
11:58.34WIMPyv0lZy: You have qualify enabled.
11:58.47v0lZywhats qualify?
11:59.11stephendowed@wimpy so the qualify just helps to show if an extension is reachable right?
11:59.13WIMPyConnectivity check.
11:59.27stephendowedif it goes down or offline that also helps us track it right? @wimpy
11:59.34WIMPypeer, not extension
11:59.41WIMPyyes
11:59.54v0lZyso basically it checks every 2 seconds
11:59.59v0lZyand its sayingthat its unreachable
12:00.01v0lZy?
12:00.12WIMPyAnd if it has already been qualified as lagged or offline, Dial() won;t even try to reach it.
12:00.36WIMPyEvery 2s seems very often.
12:01.47v0lZybtw
12:01.51v0lZyif i dont have a username and password
12:02.10v0lZyi probably dont need to have fromuser field in sip.conf right?
12:02.27v0lZyincreased to 60s
12:02.32stephendowed@wimpy is there a way of increasing the frequency it checks with
12:02.55v0lZyi increased it to 60s
12:04.00WIMPyv0lZy: I don;t know what your provider expects.
12:04.50v0lZyok
12:04.51WIMPystephendowed: qualifyfreq
12:04.51v0lZyseems to work
12:08.13stephendowedand that is in seconds right
12:08.28stephendowedlike qualifyfreq = 5 sets it to every 5s right?
12:11.41v0lZyok
12:11.44v0lZyI configured my isp
12:11.48v0lZythe qualify thing seems to have done it
12:11.51v0lZyWIMPy: one more question
12:11.56v0lZyin my current situation
12:12.13v0lZyi can call into my phone using a public phone number
12:12.18v0lZymy phone rings
12:12.25v0lZybut i dont hear anything
12:12.29v0lZyand neither does the other side
12:12.58v0lZywhat would this imply?

12:17.55*** join/#asterisk drmessano (~nonya@pdpc/supporter/active/drmessano)
12:20.30kaldemarsnadge: that generated call file assumes that you have a context called outboundialcontext which has an extension that matches faxnum. once that channel answers, the other end of the call is connected to extension s in a context called outboundfax.
12:22.56snadgeyes.. i have changed outboundialcontext to nodephone-faxout
12:23.12snadgei also have an extension s and outboundfax
12:23.30v0lZyim a bit lost
12:23.34v0lZyi get the ringing and all
12:23.39v0lZybut no sound gets transmitted.
12:25.00snadgeahh i think that could be an issue.. i dont think it has an extension that matches faxnum
12:25.32snadge[nodephone-faxout]
12:25.33snadgeexten => _X.,1,Dial(SIP/*38#${EXTEN}@nodephone)
12:26.39snadgeunless _X. catches it .. the *38# prefix apparently enables t38 support on outbound calls

12:36.40mtbfHey guys, I have to put a limit of calls per number each day, I have an AGI script, which runs SQL query on CDR table, so I can determine calls count per current day, but as I noticed, records are added into CDR table when the call is finished, therefore making a call which has not been finished yet (and is currently on hold, for instance) invisible to another instance of that AGI script, so the limit can be bypassed. Any suggestions how to solve this one?
12:37.26kaldemarmtbf: don't use CDR.
12:37.59mtbfSo tell me please, what to use instead.
12:39.09mtbfI could deploy my own db table for this purpose, but I think this would be redundant and it has to be feasible by some more elegant way.
12:39.56kaldemarmtbf: something custom that you increment from dialplan every time when there is a call.
12:40.45kaldemarmtbf: are you only counting answered calls?
12:41.18mtbfYes, I'm skipping those with 'BUSY' and 'FAILED' disposition.

12:44.29mtbfOk, thnx for your input.
12:44.31kaldemarmtbf: or make the incrementation in a subroutine that is called from the Dial app with option U(). it is executed for the called channel but you can pass info as arguments from the calling channel.

13:31.55v0lZywell i dont use a password/username
13:32.06v0lZythey just terminate the trunk onto my public IP

13:32.30[TK]D-Fenderv0lZy, Show. Us. The. Call.
13:32.34v0lZyand 1:1 NAT a different ip they use for RTP
13:32.41[TK]D-Fenderv0lZy, you need a LOT more than just 5060

13:35.22v0lZyphpboy: i could put it on a public ip

13:35.37v0lZyand they give me a separate IP for it
13:35.51[TK]D-Fenderv0lZy, Not for basic SIP

15:35.44Miccleifmadsen, I was hitting almost once a day even with restarts every night. So I'll know in a couple days if it helps.
15:35.57leifmadsenMicc: coolio
15:36.00leifmadsenMicc: keep me posted
15:36.12Micck
15:37.15Miccwe'll be hitting the busiest part of the day here in the next hour or two. I wanted to do this upgrade on the weekend but didn't really have a choice when it started hanging every day.
15:38.06MiccI tried 1.8.5 a while back, but it was a complete failure. This time around I'm not using parking at all. I wrote my own.
15:39.25leifmadsenI know parking went through a major change sometime around 1.8.6 or 1.8.7
15:40.19*** part/#asterisk beek_ (~klinebl@pdpc/supporter/bronze/beek)
15:40.54Miccyeah, it did, which also made it unusable without major dialplan changes for me. I don't use the normal _NXXXXXXXXX,n,Bla   I use s,n with a lot of subs and macros.
15:42.26MiccI probably could have fixed that one pretty easy in the parking code, but when I took at look at that code and how its spread all over everywhere, I decided not to even bother. Plus I like mine better, it is more flexible and push the spot you want to put them in. So you save a key.
15:44.23Qwellleifmadsen: no.  it all gets built from a 2.x.x.x dahdi-linux tag.  I sed it up from a .spec.in

17:30.18[TK]D-Fenderstephendowed, auto-fallthrough <-------------
17:30.29[TK]D-Fenderstephendowed, You ran out of dialplan and it hung up.
17:31.14[TK]D-Fenderstephendowed, * probably didn't even have enough time to setup the audio channel before dropping the call like a rock
17:31.24stephendowedthanks wimpy d answer and hangup did the trick
17:31.46stephendowedand what does setting auto fallthrough = yes really do
17:32.46WIMPyKill your calls when your dialplan ends without a Hangup().
17:32.53[TK]D-Fenderstephendowed, it is standard behavious VS the old 1.2- IVR standard of "running out of priorities on 's'"
17:33.03WIMPyBut that can have unexpected effects when some pattern matches.
17:33.24[TK]D-Fenderstephendowed, 1.4+ has it where if not set and you run out then they can just dial something more.  Which is almost always bad
17:34.02stephendowedi don't currently have it set so what is the default behaviour yes or no
17:34.30[TK]D-Fenderstephendowed, Not sure.  Go set it to YES and do things properly
17:34.36stephendowedam rily starting to like this asterisk thingy.....especially with this irc channel thumbs up guys
17:34.54WIMPyThat will go away with time.
17:34.59stephendowed@fender i set it to yes in the sip.conf file right?
17:35.23stephendowed@wimpy....lmao!!!! so i shouldn't be too happy dis early is what ur sayin?

17:43.31[TK]D-Fenderstephendowed, My company has been using it since 2005, and I started earlier than that
17:43.37n3hxsWe have two commercial systems installed based on Asterisk which are solid as a rock.

17:45.18WIMPyAnd sometimes you want to do more than that.
17:45.34WIMPyLike changing between multiple calls or other features.
17:46.24stephendowedi currently do a lot of linux based implementations for people and i want to add asterisk to ma toolkit u know
17:46.32stephendowedso ama be visiting here often guys....
17:47.00stephendowed@wimpy is dat a limitation with asterisk or just wif whoever handles the configuration
17:47.18WIMPyyes :-)
17:47.49WIMPyFor me it's a PITA to have to implement all basic features myself that would otherwise be taken for granted.
17:48.06WIMPyBut only being able to use the dialplan can also make it morte complicated for users.
17:48.49WIMPyThink of a three-way call, e.g.. With Asterisk you have to transfer both calls to a conference room and then join yourself.
17:49.20WIMPyAnd then yu cannot even end it.
17:49.34WIMPy(in a user compatible way)
17:55.28stephendowed@wimpy hmmm there has to be a way around that...am sure

18:01.03[TK]D-FenderThe end
18:01.18ChannelZWhy? Someone has to mix the audio whether it's a device or Asterisk

18:06.49WIMPyThere is.
18:07.03WIMPySo we're back to having to use the dialplan.

18:08.32WIMPyHmm. How does that help?
18:08.52[TK]D-FenderWIMPy, Yes making the status visible on the phone is trickier.  Different phone offer more choices.  Polycom's MB is way, mseveral others have their own.
18:08.57*** join/#asterisk mchou (~quassel@unaffiliated/mchou)
18:09.24[TK]D-FenderWIMPy, by dialing nested local channels each device is it's own Dial, so the redirect on one doesn't kill the group.
18:09.58WIMPyGot you. Yes, but that is another function.
18:10.20[TK]D-FenderWhat is another function?
18:10.22WIMPyRedirecting one phone of an extension vs redirectiong the extension.
18:10.50[TK]D-FenderWell yes separating the concept of a physical phone VS one means of contacting it.
18:11.06[TK]D-FenderI've never seen any system that let you do that as a separate entity anyway...
18:11.22WIMPyI'm used to exactely that.
18:11.50[TK]D-FenderWIMPy, You are weird and need to be fixed ;)
18:12.10WIMPyIt's important. Think about immediately redirecting the whole extension to VM when the last one leaves the office.
18:12.22WIMPyNo, I'm just not stuck in the 80s.
18:12.47[TK]D-FenderWhat is "whole extension" vs "everyone leaving the office"?
18:12.49WIMPyBut as I learned here that's a geographocal thing.
18:13.09[TK]D-FenderSounds like you should be using a queue for this sort of thing anyway
18:13.16MiccWIMPy, I use a special night mode blf for that kind of thing. they press it when the last one leaves.
18:13.22WIMPyJust an exaple to make the importance of the difference obvious.
18:13.52[TK]D-FenderWIMPy, It may be an example... it doesn't mean it isn't a retarded and shitty one ;)
18:13.58WIMPyYou couldn't do that on the phone, even if you used local channels.
18:14.46MiccWIMPy, I'm not following what your trying to do. Can you explain it again? I'm pretty sure I can do just about anything with asterisk and enough time.
18:14.56WIMPyWell, you could, but not with the desired result.
18:15.22WIMPySure you can, but it's neither easy for the admin nor for the user.
18:17.13WIMPyThe forwarding thin even works better without any PBX at all.
18:17.17[TK]D-FenderWIMPy, little dialplan feature is "easy" for the user.  Anyone who really resists on that one is pretty much useless.  There is a complication for visibility of now-server-based functionality you implement this way.  BLF is one tool, and browser capable phones are another to add more.
18:18.15[TK]D-FenderWIMPy, Considering Polycom IP32X/33X offer this starting at ~$80 USD ... it's typically a moot point for the user and end budget.  Just a little more trickery for the admin.  But then again.. what yare you paying them for? :)
18:19.06WIMPyBrowsers can do it, yes, but they are different for every phone.
18:19.35[TK]D-Fenderyes, which is why you should just settle on Polycom like so many of us happily do :)
18:20.15WIMPyI've never come across one. They don;t seem very popular over here.
18:20.17[TK]D-FenderWIMPy, Are you dealing with tons of users who are picking theirs all over the place and putting the support burden on you?
18:21.30WIMPyLuckily no, but a good system should work with any brand of phone.
18:22.41Kobazanyone have an example of polycom corp directory via ldap
18:22.58MiccWIMPy, have you looked at the yealink T38G?
18:25.18[TK]D-FenderWIMPy, Well "good system" and "work they way you specifically want" are not compaitble concepts.  * is agnositc.  Every phone supports a different featureset and levels of compatability.  For what you want you shuold jsut settle on a proprietary solution and pay the price

18:34.59[TK]D-FenderMicc, MY WHEEL WILL BE ROUNDER DAMMIT!  AND WITH SPRINKLES THIS TIME!

18:35.12[TK]D-Fender<PROTECTED>
18:35.59MiccI'd hate to have to impliment special features for over 150 customers if they all had their own asterisk system on premise.
18:36.44Miccbut I still do a lot of custom stuff. Whatever they can think up can usually be done somehow.
18:37.37WIMPyThe good thing about customers is that they are usually happy with whatever you give them.
18:38.18Miccthats usually true, and more true when they have a really bad system to start with.
18:39.18WIMPyThat doesn't happen to me.
18:39.42MiccWe always have to do a little training to make sure they know how to do things. But once they get it they usually like it better than the way they were doing things.
18:39.54WIMPyBut the classic systems are bad at things like announcements.
18:42.02[TK]D-FenderWIMPy, You seem to have become our karmic effigy.  All the bad stuff happens to you so the rest of us can enjoy *'s good fortunes :)  We thank you for your unwitting role....
18:43.58WIMPyIf I still had a real phone line, I'd probably dedust my 15 year old plasic PBX and use that again.
18:44.30WIMPyBut I don't so the available features are very limited anyway.
18:52.03MiccSo, let me get this right, you can do everything you want with asterisk, but you don't want to have to write dialplan code to make it work?

19:01.57karlfifeWhen I reboot my asterisk server, I can not set up calls on the local channel until I reload the dialplan once.  Then it runs perfectly forever until I reboot again.  This started somewhere mid-1.6.2.  I never tried to fix it because 1.6.2 is EOL.  Yesterday I migrated to 1.8.9.2 and the problem is still there.  Anyone heard of this?
19:03.15karlfifeAlso, don't accidentally uncomment the first line of res_fax_digium.conf or asterisk will segfault :-)
19:03.28p3nguinPut into modules.conf:  preload => chan_local.so

19:08.05p3nguinNot really.  I always suffered from a similar problem when using local channels from app_queue, so I've preloaded chan_local and pbx_config for a very long time.  And I never used any of the 1.6.x brances (I only use LTS branches).
19:20.30karlfifep3nguin: Thanks.  We only went to development branches because there were some essential features for us.  Now that they're in LTS we're stoked.  The next-gen essential features we will turn up on 1.10 VM's using the LTS instances as media gateways.

19:40.16p3nguinI hate using Dial's r option, but I've recently had to add it in a lot of places.  Several calls have been silent while dialing, and that's not acceptable to people who don't understand the underlying technology.
19:40.38karlfifep3nguin: me too.
19:40.43p3nguinLuckily, the ones I have monitored have just waiting through the silence.

19:41.44karlfifeAmen my brother.  Also, it doesn't seem to ever happen unless bridging TDM to sip.
19:42.36karlfifeSo the obvious problem in my case is that is that somehow the variable is not being set initially.  It's a simple "foo=1234" in a static dialplan
19:42.46p3nguinI've only noticed it when calling an SCCP phone, but it happens if the call comes into the system via SIP or IAX2.

22:41.11ChrisInSydneyMicc: Thats cool. Have bee able to get that working on Cisco SPA and Aastra. haven't played with Yeakink
22:41.25ChrisInSydneythats cool

22:42.17ChrisInSydneyMicc: So if you have a call, you press the park 1  button, the call goes away and park 1 lights up
22:42.23ChrisInSydneypress park 1 again and retrieve the call
22:42.29Miccyes, correct.
22:42.29ChrisInSydney??
22:42.32ChrisInSydneycool
22:42.40ChrisInSydneyon Yealink, Aastra and Polycom
22:42.46Miccyes
22:43.06Miccand it would work on virtually any phone that works with asterisk and has blf transfer.
22:43.47rrittgarnso for the BLFs as you were saying you just have your dialplan set the device state on those specific hints, thus lighting everything up... Do you just keep track of who is where with Func_ODBC?
22:43.48ChrisInSydneySo the phone needs to be able to do a BLF transfer. ie Press BLF and call gets blind transferred to BLF extension
22:45.41ChrisInSydneyYou using custom hints, or hints from the parking lot ?
22:48.26MiccChrisInSydney, correct. custom hints.
22:48.34Miccrrittgarn, yes.
22:49.13ChrisInSydneyahh, maybe where things are commng unstuck :-/ ??
22:49.55Miccrrittgarn, it gets a little complicated with shared variables if you're pre 1.8 because of a problem with bridge or how it executes dialplan after a channel is dead.
22:50.34ChrisInSydneyI stuck back in 1.4 land as 1.6 used to do wierd things on me. Then I just forgot about anything else. Finally figured 1.8 needs a good look as 1.10 is out ;-)
22:54.19rrittgarnnah I'm on 1.8.8.1
22:54.40rrittgarnSo among my many other pieces to this puzzle I'll have to add this I guess... you have any references you can share? haha
22:55.29Miccsorry, I wish I could, but my biz partner would kill me.
22:56.36MiccIt took me about 8 hours to figure out once I got the idea.
22:56.52Miccat least you know it can be done.
23:06.16autofsckkhi, im testing with the echo test but i dont have any audio, i use normally ulaw but at the CLI i see is using gsm, is theere a way to mke it use alaw? it was working right, but  my provider told me to put  disallow= all and allow=all al [general] on sip.conf, i already deleted that, but it still puts gsm first
23:07.37ChrisInSydney<autofsckk>: Disalo=all; allow=ualw; allow=alaw; allow=gsm will push the GSM codec down the preferred list
23:08.00ChrisInSydneyyou also need to have the files loaded, in the right DIR. Had this issue the otehr week
23:08.08ChrisInSydneysound files

23:36.51autofsckkChrisInSydney: i installed the ulaw sound files, i thought i wasnt getting any audio because of the gsm codec, but what else could be causing this? it stopped working, im trying to make it work with my provider account, and he told me to put  disallow=all   allow=all  and after that it just stopped working, well i dont hear anything anymore
23:38.43ChrisInSydneyin 1.8 you need to have the sound files in the /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/en
23:39.09ChrisInSydneydo disalow=all; allow=ulaw; and see what happens
23:39.15autofsckki have them installed
23:39.40autofsckkit now loads it the right way
23:39.52autofsckk-- <SIP/0014BFFD36F5-pap-00000001> Playing 'demo-echotest.alaw' (language 'es')
23:41.46autofsckkwell it sounds now with twinkle, but not with the pap :S
23:45.15ChrisInSydneyautofsckk: The handset will make a difference
23:46.00ChrisInSydneytry dissalow=all; allow=g722; ;-)
23:48.44rrittgarnanybody have any experience on getting Avaya 5410's working with Asterisk? Just had a customer ask...

23:56.53ChrisInSydneyhey p3nguin, hows life ?
23:57.17p3nguinI... didn't say that sentence...
23:58.14ChrisInSydneyshould have sead spoke too soon
23:58.45ChrisInSydneyI am just being lenient
23:59.05ChrisInSydneyBut we aprobably both right i some wasys. A misinformed idiot
23:59.07p3nguinI'm confused.  You're quoting me, but I didn't say that text.
23:59.56ChrisInSydneythats OK. I quoted you quoting the misinformed idiot
