The brilliance of hyper-links
by Steve Underwood 06 Feb '10

06 Feb '10

I would like to strongly object to a story posted on the front page at www.freeswitch.org, about patent reexamination. Its the kind of thing that gets proponents of patent reform a bad name. It says "Did you know that someone actually got a patent on the oh-so-clever concept of the hyperlink <http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PALL&p=…>? Enough said.". If you can't see the brilliance of the hyperlink you must be a fool. When Doug Engelbart demostrated that concept in 1968 it was so brilliant it went over the heads of most of the audience, some of them making dumb remarks that entirely missed the point. That's pretty much conclusive proof that it was not something obvious to practitioners in the art. The patent on hyperlinks was not bad because the idea was obvious. It was bad because it was applied for in 1980, 12 years after the concept was demonstrated. Luckily, video exists of the 1968 demo, and the patent was shot down. If you can't get your act together about where real innovation lies, just shut up. It just makes arguing a meaningful case for a better patent system hard for the rest of us. Steve

That's pretty funny. Let me stop laughing about the nonchalant expectation of 300cps first......................... Ok so, You ran out of rtp ports. The configured range is from 16384 to 32768 evens so do the math, 8192 simo ports. At that rate you are going to run out or possibly collide with other rtp enabled devices on the same box. If you are just using sipp to torture fs expect it to back up if you go beyond the limitations of your hardware. That said we do not entertain load testing threads......

You probably need to do a fresh build those errors mean its not fully building correctly. On Feb 6, 2010 12:56 AM, "Nagalenoj H." <nagalenoj(a)gmail.com> wrote: I've upgraded to trunk number - 16580.

A leg disconnects after uuid_bridge?
by Nagalenoj H. 06 Feb '10

06 Feb '10

Dear friends, In event socket, Why the session is closed for A leg when I do a uuid_bridge with another uuid. I've done the following operations(In nc), * Dial to he socket extension. * connect to the call. * Answered the call. * Bridged with extension X. When B leg terminates, A leg continues to be alive. * Create an uuid. * Originated a call with origination_uuid and parked the leg. * I did a uuid_bridge for these 2 legs. * When B leg terminates the call, A leg is also getting exited. I've tried setting the hangup_after_bridge to false explicitly. But, A leg is getting exited. I need it for further processing. What is the way in which I can keep the A leg alive after uuid_bridge?? -- Regards, Nagalenoj H.

Switch Security
by John 05 Feb '10

05 Feb '10

Freeswitch is to be used by phones external to my lan. Many of the phones will be coming from DSL connections without static IP. I have disabled the default password. What is a good procedure to secure the switch from non-customers registering? I know that I could use an ACL; however it's difficult with all the non-static users. Thanks John

Testing Config Changes
by Lon Baker 05 Feb '10

I'm looking for the best practice for testing configuration changes on a live Fresswitch server. Is it best to use reloadxml in the cli? Will that alert us to issues with syntax and other errors without bringing down the server? Lon

Use of mod_Conference
by joel.sisko＠iconverged.com 05 Feb '10

05 Feb '10

Group, I have a simple question I think about mod_Conference, does each conference room have to be created dynamically? My question is born from how Asterisk MeetMe room can work where you can have all the meetme rooms programmed statically in the meetme.conf file. What I am looking to do is rather than using the Asterisk meetme room application, I want to use FreeSwitch to provide this functionality. So I am trying to figure out what the integration would look like from a 10,000 foot view. Thanks for the help in advance. Joel
