Sadly, I won't be attending but, I'm sure someone from Cisco and/or PCH will be there and can probably come up with the VoIP phone. There are many folks on the INOC-DBA system who are running Asterisk as well so, setting up a conference bridge is trivial. An ATA-186 with a hybrid on it (to get the PA audio cleanly into the phone) would be an ideal situation. Perhaps there is someone with broadcast engineering experience (besides me) that can assist in this. John

I made an attempt this past weekend to get INOC-DBA setup on our Asterisk system and ran into lack of documentation and inaccurate/wrong documentation on the inoc-dba site. Specifically I had/have no way of adding a phone because the ASNxxxxxxnn format for MAV address just results in an 'invalid MAC address' error message. I'm also not quite clear on why there's not a 'asterisk users click here' instead because asterisk users don't need the config file. I haven't had a chance to pose the question to the list and searching via google yielded very little information.

And yet you've posted about it twice here. Not sure why you think that NANOG is an appropriate place to whine about something you've haven't asked for help with in the right place.... maybe you're confused by all the "is provider XXX having problems?" posts that should also be redirected.

I'm interested in doing this too (with *) but just haven't gotten around to filling out and returning the application form. Have you seen the sample configs at http://www.loligo.com/asterisk/example-configs.2003-04-24/ They're allegedly a config setup to talk to inoc-dba. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Lewis | I route Senior Network Engineer | therefore you are Atlantic Net | _________ http://www.lewis.org/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key_________

Here is an example of how I have our Asterisk set up for INOC-DBA: In sip.conf: register => 65534*123:password@inoc-dba.pch.net/65534*123 [inoc-dba-ext] type=friend host=inoc-dba.pch.net username=65534*123 context=inoc-dba-in canreinvite=no In extensions.conf: [inoc-dba-in] exten => _65534*X.,1,SetCallerID(${CALLERIDNAME} <${CALLERIDNUM}>|a) exten => _65534*X.,2,Goto(extensions,${EXTEN:6},1) [extensions] exten => 123,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN}) exten => 123,2,Hangup() John

Because we don't have enough money and programmers to add all features at once. That's something that's being worked on now, and with luck, we'll have setup wizard-pages for Asterisk users in six or eight weeks. There are a lot of other features people are asking for, and we can only pursue a couple of them at a time, given the fact that I'm still paying for nearly all of it out of my own pocket. > I haven't had a chance to pose the question to the list and > searching via google yielded very little information. You're probably best off reading the INOC-DBA mailing list archive, or asking on the list, or asking the INOC-DBA operator. (operator@pch.net) -Bill

I'm going to get ahold of Dan in private to see if we can host this on a inoc-dba and pstn-reachable conf bridge. i may be able to get one going. - jared -- Jared Mauch | pgp key available via finger from jared@puck.nether.net clue++; | http://puck.nether.net/~jared/ My statements are only mine.

i had originally planned to host a bridge that was both pstn- and inocdba/sip reachable, but then the fine folks from merit said that they would be able to multicast the bof, and so i think there's no real need for audio engineering. (isc's asterisk-based confbridge is available if needed, and is reachable by both pstn, inoc*dba, and sip-url.) as co-moderator, i'd like all remote questions/comments to come via irc, and not via the speakerphone. audio engineers take note -- mute all "other ends" plz. -- Paul Vixie

Paul, this is the reason I suggested an audio hybrid=>ata-186 for patching the audio to INOC. It doesn't matter if the people on the conference bridge are screaming their heads off... Unless the output of the hybrid is connected to the PA system, they're not going to be heard at the NANOG end. John

He can definitely bring a 7960 phone, which includes a good speakerphone. We don't have an ATA-186 at the moment... if anyone wants to bring one and splice it into the PA, that would certainly provide cleaner sound. Jared, you want to host the bridge? -Bill

Sure. I could also try to bring my ata-186 too. - jared -- Jared Mauch | pgp key available via finger from jared@puck.nether.net clue++; | http://puck.nether.net/~jared/ My statements are only mine.
