Hey Steve,<br><br>I know that Asterisk was used, we were once using it ourselves and had Digium produce a CAMA stack (as you noted, no great shakes, I think one guy did it in a weekend. It sure wasn&#39;t priced that way!). Do you know of anyone else using FS for E911? I&#39;d be interested to speak to them. <br>
<br>I happen to have test equipment that we used when testing our Digium stuff, so that&#39;s no problem.  As a matter of fact, I&#39;m also looking to see if TDD has been adapted for FS. As I&#39;m looking at solution possibilities, I don&#39;t want to re-invent the wheel if someone else has already been down this road.<br>
<br>Thanks for responding,<br><br>Mike G.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Jan 24, 2012 at 11:19 PM, Steve Underwood <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:steveu@coppice.org">steveu@coppice.org</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>

<br>
Freeswitch and Asterisk (probably Yate and others too) have been used<br>
for E911 services for some time, yet I haven&#39;t heard anyone ask for CAMA<br>
before. Its usually things like TDD for the deaf support they ask for.<br>
However, it appears CAMA is a popular choice for E911, as it overcomes<br>
limitations in the ISDN protocols for a service eager to know the<br>
origins of a dropped call.<br>

<a href="http://wholesale.att.com/reference_library/.../TR-73576.pdfseems" target="_blank">http://wholesale.att.com/reference_library/.../TR-73576.pdfseems</a> to be<br>
the relevant spec. Its basically a conventional Bell MF type T1, with a<br>
few modifications (or analogue pairs for smaller setups). It doesn&#39;t<br>
look like a big job to implement it, although finding suitable test beds<br>
might be a pain.<br>

&gt; Yes, that&#39;s the one. Not the entire protocol, just the subset used in<br>
&gt; E9-1-1 (while it still is).<br>

&gt;         I&#39;m just starting a search on this subject, but does a stack<br>
&gt;         exist for FS implementing CAMA, or at least a subset of that<br>
&gt;         protocol?<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;     Someone asked me about this a while ago, can&#39;t remember nor find<br>
&gt;     his name or email.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt;     Just to confirm, are you talking about this?:<br>

&gt;<br>
&gt;     I don&#39;t think there is a stack or code to handle that in the open<br>
&gt;     source community (though, you never know what is out there). From<br>
&gt;     what I see requires MF tones, which at least spandsp is able to<br>
&gt;     generate and detect. Some logic is required on top to interpret<br>
&gt;     and respond to the tones accordingly.<br>
