We have Lync in our environment, and have successfully configured the following to work with Freeswitch: - Outbound call from Lync via Freeswitch - Inbound call rings both Lync and Freeswitch endpoint (Polycom phone) - Calls between Lync and Polycom phone We would also like to have Lync to remote call control the Polycom phone. Is this possible? Shawn
That's more than likely a Lync-specific question, and I'm not sure how many people use Lync on this mailing list. Hang tight though, someone may know. I'd be looking other places though. -BDF On Tue, May 8, 2012 at 1:33 PM, Shawn Yu <shawn.yu@janmarini.com> wrote:

It's all something I looked into once, but avaya charge £lol for what I needed to do it at the time and that's all I had available. Remote Call Control USED to require TAPI drivers under OCS. I'm not sure if that's still true, but from memory it's done using SIP+CSTA which you may have to bridge to the event socket or process using python or something from the dialplan. With regards to interoperability, I've not tried it but see no reason for it to work. You may need a Lync Mediation server, but you might be able to get away with using the gateways options. It's SIP+TLS, but not sure what codecs are involved. The outbound call via lync should just be gateway configuration, which should also facilitiate ringing both a phone and lync using standard sofia dial strings. Don't take my word for any of this though, it's been a long time since I last looked. If they still do a free trial and I have some free time I might look into it again.

If anyone can forward me info on LYNC stuff I can take a look at it. The CSTA library on the opencsta website is very old and needs a clean up. It is functional and supports Siemens/Alcatel limited/Ericsson phone systems using ASN.1 notation rather than XML. Once XML is in place - then it's a matter of tying it to ESL and some other internals of FS I guess. It is written in java with an LGPL license - I'm new here, and I'm busy doing other stuff - but feel free to throw stuff at me to look at!

When using Lync to terminate outbound to FreeSWITCH, remember by default Lync will CANCEL the call if it does not get 183 progress within 10 seconds. Reason is some stuff about ICE/NAT traversal and missing the first second of audio. (Also realise Lync will try to use ICE, so if you're on a VPN with a similar subnet, it'll pick that path over others. Only way to fix is to firewall off RTP from the Lync server, so that ICE fails. This is the only time I've seen ICE work, and then it resulted in horrible audio quality (RTP over SSL VPN)). -Michael From: freeswitch-users-bounces@lists.freeswitch.org [mailto:freeswitch-users-bounces@lists.freeswitch.org] On Behalf Of Shawn Yu Sent: Tuesday, May 08, 2012 11:34 AM To: freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org Subject: [Freeswitch-users] Freeswitch + Lync We have Lync in our environment, and have successfully configured the following to work with Freeswitch: - Outbound call from Lync via Freeswitch - Inbound call rings both Lync and Freeswitch endpoint (Polycom phone) - Calls between Lync and Polycom phone We would also like to have Lync to remote call control the Polycom phone.
