[Freeswitch-users] FS - DTMF and Cisco CME/UCE

Completely agree, we might be putting an E1 card in the Cisco and 
front-ending it with a Patton yet...

I have an SN4961 30 Channel license in stock.

An update on my testing; At the moment, I have the Cisco set to rfc2833, 
and Wireshark (filter on 'rtpenvents') clearly shows the DTMF being 
originated from the Cisco.


I should also point out that it _looks_ like the PSTN<-->SIP gateway is 
doing DTMF in-band, which is passing transparently through FS, from 
'external' to 'internal' i.e. DTMF works in-bound no matter which 
direction the call is placed.

Next step: capture a trace of a 'good' vs 'bad' call between FS and the 
PSTN GW and verify which type of DTMF  the 'good' call is actually using.
     This will also let me know if FS is converting RFC2833 to in-band 
correctly towards the PSTN.

Also, as Yehavi pointed out, making the Cisco transcode might fix it 
(again, the trace between FS and PSTN GW might show something).

Ahh, just looking at the Wiki I have check to make sure I have this correct;

Thanks everyone,
Mike
