Phone Number Joe Jobs

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_job I have a customer who this is happening to. No clue how to track it or figure out who is doing it or how to get it to stop. Total of 10 calls to the number in 3 months, now 188 calls since 2:47pm today, all with a pretty wide variety of callerIDs. 25 Voicemails left, only one actually didn't hang up, and they spoke spanish. It seems obvious to me that someone is doing a dialer with this number (not theirs) as callerID. I can block it, but it seems to be a problem that continues to come up. Probably companies violating the telemarketing rules and trying to get away with it by using legit but not their CallerID. Thoughts? I can provide the number privately if you want to see if YOUR customer(s) are doing this specific one.

Broadworks Patch Religion
by hiersd＠gmail.com Feb. 2, 2010

Feb. 2, 2010

For our entire history with BW, we've carefully researched and selected individual patches to apply based on the functions that we use and the issues that we see. BW explicitly states that "customers can pick and choose the patches they want", and they make it easy for us to do so. This process has worked quite well for us so far. It takes a good deal of effort to keep up with over 1 patch per day across the entire BW universe of products, but we've done it and had good results. Recently, the "open you mouth and close your eyes" idea has been advanced, in which we would apply ALL patches, regardless of function or issue. We'd wait 30 days or so to let everyone else find the problems with the contents of the default patch bundle, then just slap the bundle on without any thinking. We'd still test like chimps on crack after patching, of course. Are you picky or promiscuous with your BW patches? Since this discussion is very vendor/version specific, we run BW R14sp9. Thanks, David Hiers

MARTINI: why it matters to Voice over IP service providers -- and why we want YOU to attend the Virtual Interim on February 9, 2010
by bernard_aboba＠hotmail.com Feb. 2, 2010

Feb. 2, 2010

The IETF MARTINI WG has been chartered to standardize an important aspect of SIP trunking: multiple AOR registration. This is not one of those ?we?ll deliver a standard when we?re good and ready? working groups. This WG is aiming to deliver a single standard solution that can displace the myriad of adhoc ?implicit registration? approaches that exist today. The goal is to change SIP trunking forever, or die trying. Not 5 years from now, not 2 years from now, but NOW. MARTINI will hold its third virtual Interim (yup, three 2.5+ hour interims in a period of 4 weeks) on February 9, 2010. If you are a Voice over IP service provider, and you care about the future of SIP trunking, then you need to attend MARTINI Virtual Interim III, or lose your whining rights, forever. The strawman agenda and the conference parameter details are available here: http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/martini/current/msg00466.html Presentations and minutes from the previous virtual interims are available here: http://www.drizzle.com/~aboba/MARTINI/ The IETF MARTINI WG: not another half-baked standards working group that nobody cares about.
