Shared registration
by Volkan Oransoy 29 Oct '14

29 Oct '14

Hi all, I have two FS boxes that share same database. These two boxes are behind two kamailio sip proxies. When a sip proxy receives a successful registration, it replicates the registration to one of FS boxes with a path variable. The FS box that receives registration writes this data to database. Everything goes well at this scenario. But when I check, registration numbers are inconsistent. "sofia status profile internal reg" command shows all the records in the DB and matches at two FS boxes. But "show registrations" shows less than half of these records and numbbers are different at two FS boxes. I think that's why some users get UNALLOCATED_NUMBER error when they receive a call from opposite FS box. Is there anything that I miss at this setup? Or what is the common setup for such a cluster? /Volkan Oransoy

zlib now required to build on OSX?
by Mario G 28 Oct '14

28 Oct '14

While working on the patch for Xcode 6 and wiki update I recently found that make fails because it could not find zlib. Is this a new requirement? Tested on 10.9 with no changes except latest FS download. If no, then I guess a Jira is needed. Mario G

Logging commands
by Oleg Stolyar 28 Oct '14

28 Oct '14

Guys, is there a way to log cli commands that are being executed? More specifically I use the txtapi command from the xml_rpc module and need to be able to see when FreeSWITCH received and executed each command with argument. Is it doable already or would it require a code change? I already have this in my logfile.conf.xml <map name="all" value="debug,info,notice,warning,err,crit,alert"/>

High density freeswitch potential deployment using Sangoma 16 x E1 TDM cards (A116DE)
by Andrew Keil 28 Oct '14

28 Oct '14

To Freeswitch users, I currently consulting to a client in UK where they could potentially move off their current proprietary IVR to either an external hosted IVR supplier or keep it in-house with a more modern IVR. I am putting together a proposal (in basic terms as follows) and wished to get some "real-world" feedback: 2 x new servers Each with: Freeswitch (latest stable release) Windows 7 Pro (minimum) - It has to be Windows (initially) since they are a "Windows house" still Sangoma 16 x E1 PCI-express (with echo cancellation DSP daughter board) TDM card (A116DE) Scripting language on Freeswitch preference: Lua My questions are as follows: 1) Has anyone used Freeswitch with this level of density on Sangoma TDM hardware (ie. Potential for 480 concurrent calls)? a. Does the Sangoma DSP echo cancellation daughter board get fully utilised by FreeSWITCH (via the FreeTDM interface) - ie. Offloading DTMF detection etc...? 2) Would there be any issues in using Lua with potentially 480 concurrent calls? 3) Can anyone suggest a minimum hardware spec for this (CPU, memory)? I appreciate any assistance on this topic so that this project can get off the ground. Kind Regards, Andrew Keil

Issue with WebRTC calls and Firefox 34-beta
by Chad Pilkey 28 Oct '14

28 Oct '14

We have noticed an issue on our BigBlueButton servers where people using WebRTC and Firefox 34-beta can send their audio, but they aren't receiving any audio back. It looks like Firefox is sending "c=IN IP4 0.0.0.0" in the SDP, whereas in previous version of Firefox it would provide an IP address on the c line. Is it possible that Freeswitch sees the 0.0.0.0 in the SDP and chooses to just receive only? We are seeing this problem on both Windows and Mac machines. The full client log can be found here, http://pastebin.com/8JX3PwEP, and the output from fs_cli can be found here, http://pastebin.com/8nuF5e8e. We use sip.js in the browser and I had originally posted the question to their mailing list and the change in the "c" line was pointed out there. My post can be found here, https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sip_js/tuGdbE4ryWs/dKu-KfUlSYEJ. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Chad

Recommended Channels Per SIP Profile
by afshin afzali 28 Oct '14

28 Oct '14

Hi Guys, Considering high capacity deployments, I've seen some recommendations on channels count per a SIP profile but actually I don't remember that (100, 200, ... ?) ! I know it depends on many factors. I'll appreciate for some advice for a typical multi-core 2.8 GHz :) BEST, -- Afshin Afzali

Help Required for Outbound call
by Manish Talwar 28 Oct '14

28 Oct '14

?Hi, We have successfully integrated FreeSwitch with our current web based IVR application by "httapi", Its working fine as per our requirement. We have setup FreeSwitch on our "linux EC2 AWS Server", and its successfully handshaking our IVR application with FreeSwitch. Now, we need to integrate out?bound call in our application, i.e. "to make an international call" or "Speak to Customer Care Executive". I have looked about httapi "dial" command for this purpose, but I am not able to make a call by this command. Please suggest me whether we can make a Outbound call by HTTAPI "Dial" command or Is there any other ways to do this task. Please share some examples of XML Request which we need to send in FreeSwitch for making a call via HTTAPI. Also, we are planning to integrate "NEXMO" in our application. Please share some helpful links for integrating it with FreeSwitch if possible. Thanks, Regards, Manish Talwar

Freeswitch usage at a large organization with presence
by Yehavi Bourvine 27 Oct '14

27 Oct '14

Hello, Anyone is running Freeswitch in a large prganization environment, with BLF and shared lines? I have presence enabled for all extesions, and I see a lot of database accesses (I am using ODBC for all core and non-core databases). I am afraid this might be a bottleneck in future expansion, and would like to hear what others are doing regarding this. Thnks! __Yehavi:

How do I get over my bad habit of procrastinating?
by Ken Rice 27 Oct '14

27 Oct '14

New Post on freeswitch.org from anthm check it out at http://ift.tt/1rN8ENA How do I get over my bad habit of procrastinating? There's nothing like a seemingly endless post on how to stop procrastinating full of posts from procrastinators who are actively procrastinating by writing answers on how to not procrastinate. Answer by Suresh Rathinam: I was a very bad Procrastinator for a very long time, until i really understood the basics of why i procrastinate. In order to understand why you procrastinate, first you should have a strong desire to eliminate procrastination in your life and following the methods mentioned below will be helpful. I. Track down your everyday activity When i first started writing down the list of activities that i do everyday, it felt like a waste of time. But later while analyzing the one month data i clearly understood why i don't have enough time to do the necessary activities and it narrowed down to the bad habits that i had created over time. I was spending most of my time in Facebook and was affected by the "Chain-clicking curse" where watching a video from Facebook will lead to YouTube in-turn to Twitter to see the trend and it goes on and on into loads of unnecessary browsing wasting your precious time II.Understanding why we procrastinate We procrastinate because of the habits that we create over time. When we work some random thought strikes our mind, it might be as simple as, where to go for the next vacation? and I go to online to check details of it. it doesn't stop there, then to Facebook to see where my friends went? and something else catches up my eyes and the clicks goes endlessly III. How we create Habits I have been following this routine every day which let me do overtime to complete my work and had no time for the essential things in life. All of these made sense to me when i read the Power of habit by Charles Duhigg. understanding the basic of habit was big help to me. I starts with acue/Signal in my case it was the random thought and my routine was tosearch about it and reward that i get is leaving a stressful work for that moment/satisfaction by answering my random thought which sucks my time endlessly leaving only a very short period of time to do the necessary. Now the trick it to replace the bad routine with a good routine which will lead to greater productivity in life, which could be understood by looking at how runners reward themselves Here the cue is the Running shoe and it lets you to the routine of running which was created over time, running leads to the reward which is sense of accomplishment on completing a run also satisfying the Endorphin craving that you get by looking at the running shoe IV. How I cured myself by changing my routine 1. Keeping myself distraction free a. Turn off internet: Most of my work doesn't need internet so turned off my WiFi whenever i work. b. Note pad: Whenever some random thoughts strike rather than searching it online i started recording them down in a small note and researched about them later c. Setting Time limits: Started setting a duration to complete my work which helped me to focus more on my work, Even had set time on socializing with my colleagues spending not more than 5 minutes on unnecessary talks. 2. Sustaining the habits a. Tracking your activities: Its quite tough for me to write every activity now and then, so i spent half an hour every day before sleeping to write down the activities of the whole day splitting into hourly activities and do a quick analysis on where to improve next day. It looks something like this, 9:00 – 10:00 : Forecast Meeting 10:00 – 11:00 : Project#1 – Prepared the procedure b. Prioritizing activities for tomorrow: This summary helps me in prioritizing the activities that i should be concentrating more tomorrow and I write down top 3 things that should be completed tomorrow c. Monthly and Quarterly Review: then i started analyzing my monthly and quarterly data's to continuously improve my productivity The methods mentioned above worked perfectly for me and I started finding more time to do the necessary things in life. Hope it will be useful for you as well, Let me know if it was helpful How do I get over my bad habit of procrastinating?
