Broadworks: Preserve sip call-ID
by rakeshunni＠gmail.com March 23, 2012

March 23, 2012

Hi guys, We are running r17 at the moment and currently testing a monitoring platform for both signalling and media. They use sip callID to identify call legs to merge and i would like to have all call legs on one call (from the originating access side to where we send the traffic to for PSTN). Since Broadworks act as a B2BUA it rewrites the originating callID to BW-xxxxx. I've made changes on the SBC to preserve the callID but now need Broadworks to preserve it. Is it possible on Broadworks to transparent proxy the callID from the access side to the terminating side ? Thanks Rakesh

We're an ILEC in West-Central Illinois having trouble originating 800-number calls to CIC 288 (AT&T).Our Central Office has been going around in circles trying to open a trouble with AT&T's translations department. We keep getting the runaround, passed back and forth from one group to another. Does anyone have a good contact number? Thanks

Question about PIC codes
by RDawson＠alliedtelecom.net March 15, 2012

March 15, 2012

We have recently received a few requests to PIC their LD. I honestly don't even think that in our current configuration we are capable of doing PICs - just curious if anyone has any experience/pertinent knowledge related to the topic? Thanks, Rob

Acme Packet University

Today is the Acme Packet University and Analyst Day. Some of the tweets had some nuggets I thought I would share: Acme Packet Analyst Event: Now that SBC is standardized, what's preventing others from catching up? Acme Packet CTO MeLampy answer: Complexity has risen; so overwhelming that it's a barrier to entry; APKT hired 200 ppl in the last 18 months to tackle it. Acme Packet CTO: standards complexity is killing the potential for end-user services. Patrick MeLampy discusses the newer complexities of multimedia communications. MeLampy: increased SIP complexity: 215 different RFCs related to SIP, 35 Internet drafts 2012 YTD, 80 Internet Drafts last 6 months @Acme_Packet: MeLampy: all our old competitors tried to solve the sbc problems like a firewall, and they all failed. MeLampy: making a simple call :136 messages , 17 entities , 6 protocols; Session state in 7 difference locations MeLampy: Making a 3GPP call (SIP session layer): Phone registration: 30 messages, 11 entities , 5 protocols. Andy Ory: As service providers are pushing to #LTE there are three problems, the business challenges, tech issues, and complexity Ory: our role in session enablement is to allow for simple implementations, so service providers can compete with free voice services Dan Warren - IMS brings everything good about TDM to an IP level. <so we are back to talking about IMS, huh?> Thank you.

How do the rest of you handle having customers test their 911 service on installation? Do any of you have them sign off that it's been completed? Any instruction documents you can share? -- Carlos Alvarez TelEvolve 602-889-3003

Paging system integration with VoIP

This looks great...thanks for the heads up. I will get one to try out....we usually have an available fxs port or two so using the Viking has always been a quick fix and ultra reliable...we have also used the Viking pa2a for paging with loud bell and the m2w to amplify a phone's speaker Todd Wolf COO Unified Technologies 583 Warren Ave Portland, Me 04103 207.591.6902 On Mar 13, 2012, at 9:35 PM, "Jay Taylor" <taylorj at hti-inc.com> wrote: > If you are going to go through the trouble of putting those two items together, you might want to check out Snom's PA1 as an all in one unit.

Does anyone here have advice on connecting a Valcom paging system with a hosted VoIP system? The site is about a thousand miles away so I can't just go play with it. At the most basic level I'm considering just a cheap phone on auto-answer and a connection from its headset jack to the paging amp. Any other ideas? -- Carlos Alvarez TelEvolve 602-889-3003

Edgemarc Experiences

>From my limited exposure with them it really only provides QoS on an unmanaged LAN which can help if you are dealing with people on DSL or other public internet connections and the problems they have are LAN based data/VoIP contention. For example someone on the LAN is saturating the uplink with bit torrents - this can help make sure that the VoIP traffic takes priority without you having to manage their firewall/router. Of course this takes some time to setup and test. Simple VLANs can do the same thing with some work as well but the edgemark devices are a decent option for those looking for a one time set it and forget it option in this context. For the real issues - It doesn't support SCCP (those really cool looking Cisco phones) and it really doesn't help anything over the public internet. In some cases a simple TCP based tunnel can help improve call quality over public networks by keeping packet ordering and loss to a minimum but this comes with it's own trials and tribulations without much guarantee. Long story short - it may help depending on the problem you are trying to solve but be aware of the actual problem first.
