Anyone out there have experience with Valcom paging solutions on Broadworks? This would be a simple application - 1 zone and 2 horns. Any recommendations for other products?

Strange register attack
by zavoid＠gmail.com Nov. 29, 2010

Nov. 29, 2010

Tonight i'm seeing hundreds of register attempts per second to one of my SBC's from an IP in china 61.142.250.96. the From: and to: line is always one of these 2 below. \"118\" <sip:118 at my SBC IP>; source port 5063 \"qwerty\" <sip:qwerty at my SBC IP>; source port 5067 user-agent: friendly-scanner is always. Looks like sipvicious default user agent. Anyone seen a register flood like this before? Colin

Broadsoft/ACME and Solarwinds
by ujjval＠simplesignal.com Nov. 22, 2010

Nov. 22, 2010

Has anyone used Solarwinds SNMP monitoring software for Broadsoft and ACME packet to receive Traps for these devices? Can solarwinds not load the MIB files directly and compile them or do we have to use a MIB walker to create a Trap/MIB-CSV file that we then provide to solarwinds who will include it in their MIB Database and provide an updated database to us for the Solarwinds system? Any help would be appreciated?

Telcordia's LERG
by clechouse＠hotmail.com Nov. 22, 2010

Nov. 22, 2010

Does anyone have any insight into the mystery that is Telcordia's LERG subscription pricing model? It honestly seems to be based on whatever arbitrary basis they can use to squeeze as much money as possible. There doesn't seem to be an sort of clearly defined rate or tier sheet to justify any of it. Also, what are the chances of truly opening these services to competition, like happened with domain registrations so many years ago? ~SP

Favorite network testing tools
by jvanick＠spruce.oaknet.com Nov. 22, 2010

Nov. 22, 2010

I've seen some threads on pieces of this, but I thought it might be cool to talk about some testing tools.. I'm looking for open source (read modifiable) tools for characterizing and verifying network connections and their reliability for voice (rtp). I've played with ttcp and iperf but they're really not exactly what I'm looking for. I'll need both server and client side (client side preferably something browser (pc) based... What are *YOUR* favorites and why? Thanks! -Jason

Poor LD from Ontario, Canada
by frnkblk＠iname.com Nov. 18, 2010

Nov. 18, 2010

My brother opened a trouble ticket with Bell Canada and the issue is mostly resolved. Calling Name and Number work now, and the quality is much better though with noticeable latency, but there was about a 30-second PDD for her. My guess is that Bell Canada had their U.S. long-distance partner use a better route. Frank -----Original Message----- From: Frank Bulk [mailto:frnkblk at iname.com] Sent: Friday, November 12, 2010 2:59 PM To: 'VoiceOps at voiceops.org' Subject: Poor LD from Ontario, Canada Our customers (including my family) have been complaining over the last few months about poor call completion and quality to the Midwest. Based on the random CID (or lack of, when I see "Private Caller"), it's clear that Bell Canada is doing some LCR over poor and/or dubious routes. Some calls don't complete, or when the called party picks up, it immediately disconnects, or the quality is very poor. Does anyone have a contact at Bell Canada that would be able to help sort through this? Please reply off-list. Frank

Calls to China degrade after 5 minutes
by jim＠californiatelecom.com Nov. 12, 2010

Nov. 12, 2010

I am experiencing INTL calls to China degrade after 5 minutes. First few minutes is crystal clear, then after that, it gets worse, and then unusable. I tried changing upstream transit providers, and SIP trunk carriers, and it didn't help. I am going to try a few more things, but anyone have any experience here? Is this a known issue? This has been an ongoing issue, not something that just popped up. Jim Gurol California Telecom 213-270-1349
