I'm guessing this is just a pipe dream, but I'll throw it out anyway... Is there any database available that can determine the carrier for an outbound number? It would be really nice to be able to route cellular calls via a cell phone automatically instead of setting up specific numbers in the profile.
That¹s called the LRN database and its not free... There are services that will offer you access to it on a per query basis out there tho K On 6/23/11 6:59 PM, "Chris Cureau" <cmcureau@gmail.com> wrote:

Consider this my telephony 101 experience. The past 15 years have been filled with tech support, coding, and project management. I guess I was looking for a change. If one can't ask even newbie questions without this type of disdain, how does one get the knowledge?

"voip requires less knowledge" These kinds of statements only serve to fracture telephony/communications communities even more (at a time when "unified communications" have been the buzzword for a decade). I take it you've never spent time developing high scale, high availability "voip" systems. Built SS7/SIP internetworking gateways? SIP-I? SIP-T? Debugged ridiculous SIP/SDP/RTP interop issues between the thousands of endpoints, networks, and configurations available in the field? TLS? SRTP? IPV6? Complex codecs operating at multiple sample rates and ptimes, complete with adaptive jitter buffers and forward error correction? I could go on, and on, and on and of course most of us also have to deal with the 8k TDM PSTN (including SS7, IMTs, various DBs, regulatory stuff, etc, etc). Saying "voip requires less knowledge" does nothing more than show how little you know about it. Voip does not require less knowledge - it requires /different/ knowledge. At this point I couldn't patch a 25 pair cable if my life depended on it, that requires expertise different from my own. If you want to talk about any of the technologies above I'd probably be able to contribute quite a bit to the conversation :).

At the risk of being wrong (it's been more than a decade since I worked at Lucent), iirc LERG, LRN and OCN are US centric. Since I'm on the other side of the Big Blue Pond I don't need to know them :) It probably helps if one knows LNP if one offers or uses VoIP services. B8ZS line encoding. Iirc a funky version of AMI because the US suffered from not-invented-here syndrom so they came up with a tweaked version of AMI called Bipolar-8-0-substition. Nuf said :) Brings back memories of long nights troubleshooting international circuits with BERT testers and hopping on planes to follow the nodes so we could finally pinpoint which carrier was lying about nothing being wrong with their stretch.
just the good ole days 5ESS / DMS RCV
5ESS wasn't my thing. They were just really big and did not do very exciting things so best left alone with the ancient bearded tribe that ran those monsters. All I can remember about the Nortel stuff was that it was really loud, particularly their X.25 nodes. I do have fond memories of all the Ascend gear (the TNT, CBS-500 and GX-550) and all the Lucent experimental DWDM and SDH gear that we got to play with. "If we build it they will come" - wonder if we will ever see those days again. Regards, Patrick
