[App_rpt] Problems with Echolink on app_rpt
by Matt Beasant 11 Oct '08

11 Oct '08

Dear all, I've upgraded my node to the latest release and have attempted to get Echolink working on my node. However, I'm having problems and wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction for a fix? When I try to make an outgoing call from my node to an echolink node, I instantly get the "node connection failed" message. On the CLI, the announcement text is immediately preceeded by: WARNING[5786] file.c:1198 waitstream_core: Unexpected control subclass '13' When I try to make a call IN to my node form an Echolink node, I see: ERROR[2508]: chan_echolink.c:2165 do_new_call: Cannot find DB entry for a/ipaddr/81.156.xxx.xxx However, I do frequently see messages such as: NOTICE[2507]: chan_echolink.c:1758 sendcmd: Received OK from Echolink server europe.echolink.org and the database show command works fine also. Do I need to follow these instructions here : http://app-rpt.qrvc.com/echolink.html or is my node already up to date enough to not have to do this? I also noted the existence of an IRLP config file in the config examples - I need IRLP functionality on my node and so is this something I can use too? Thanks in advance for any and all help received! Kind regards, Matt G4RKY node 2250 & 2237

[App_rpt] agi programming
by James Nessen 11 Oct '08

has anyone done any agi programming with their setup? If so, care to share some config examples on how you integrated it into the dialplan, etc? I have a remote control function that i built for IRLP that i would like to port over to asterisk, but without seeing examples lack a starting point. Thanks.

Regarding ACID... As soon as I get back from my Fishing and Repeater expedition in Bishop, CA , I will be updating files.tar.gz with the new asterisk version. For those of you with very recent installs of ACID, all you;ll need to do is download a new version of astupd.sh and run it.

Re: [App_rpt] Asterisk Amateur Radio Conference Bridge

Hi Steve, Got the message just fine via IAX2 from New Zealand! Only received silence to the SIP connection, debug stated: -- SIP/callin.xelatec.com-.... answered SIP/821-... -- Native bridging SIP/821-.... and SIP/callin.xelatec.com-... Cheers, John ________________________________ From: app_rpt-bounces(a)lists.illiana.net on behalf of Steven Henke Sent: Fri 10/10/2008 5:15 AM To: app_rpt(a)lists.illiana.net Subject: [App_rpt] Asterisk Amateur Radio Conference Bridge Hello Fellow Amateur Radio Over IP Enthusiasts, To help us communicate off-the-air, I've created a telephone conference bridge for us to use to discuss the project and use while troubleshooting installations. I will have this conference bridge activated for scheduled activities that will be posted via this list and whenever I am available to talk about amateur radio projects. There is no Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) access to this conference bridge. You must use VoIP to connect and here are a few ways you can do it. The first method is to use an Asterisk server by configuring routes in the dialplan. For example, the following entry in the /etc/asterisk/extensions_custom.conf file and its context [from-internal-custom] (or the equivalent file and context for your Asterisk system) routes calls dialed to extension 8501 to the XIPAR Conference Bridge via a SIP connection over the Internet. exten => 8501,1,Set(CALLERID(all)=YourCall<6785551234>) exten => 8501,n,Dial(SIP/8501(a)callin.xelatec.com) The second method also uses an Asterisk server and dialplan entries in /etc/asterisk/extensions_custom.conf and context [from-internal-custom] but makes the connection using the IAX2 protocol. exten => 8502,1,Set(CALLERID(all)=YourCall<6785551234>) exten => 8502,n,Dial(IAX2/guest(a)pbx.aretta.net/8502) As a third method you can also use the free Zoiper (http://www.zoiper.com) softphone client on a computer to connect directly to the Conference Bridge without going through an Asterisk server. Of course you must first have Zoiper installed and then add a new Zoiper IAX account with Account name 'callin', Server Hostname 'callin.xelatec.com', Username 'callin', and no password or other information. Select Show Advanced Options for that account and uncheck "Register on startup'. Apply the new account and click OK. Then from the main user interface, select the new account, go off hook and dial '8502'. That should connect you to the conference. And finally, you can use the iaxRpt (http://www.xelatec.com/xipar/iaxrpt) PTT Radio Dispatch Client to connect. From the iaxRpt menubar select Options, Accounts and Add. Then enter Account Name '8502', Description 'XIPAR Conference', Host 'callin.xelatec.com', Username 'callin' and you can leave 'Password and Confirm' blank. You can then select 8502 from the 'Dial Site/Node' drop down box and press 'Connect' to join the conference. Remember that you need to press the iaxRpt PTT switch when you want to talk! Whatever your method, when you successfully connect you will hear a greeting message that will tell you the status of the conference bridge. So that you can be ready for a conference, feel free to test your connection anytime you want. I hope to hear you soon! 73, Steven Henke, W9SH w9sh(a)xelatec.com _______________________________________________ App_rpt mailing list App_rpt(a)lists.illiana.net http://lists.illiana.net/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt

Works a treat, got the greeting. I've programmed it into my VoIP provider's speed dials (they give me a lot of the functionality of an Asterisk box), so I can use it from my regular IP phone. :) I can't change my caller ID string for that one connection. Whether we'll be able to catch up due to the time difference is another thing. :) 73 de VK3JED http://vkradio.com
