International IP blacklist
by ujjval＠simplesignal.com April 18, 2010

April 18, 2010

We have seen a lot Unauthorized attempts from Mid-East, China recently. I wanted to see if there is a blacklist of IPs that is maintained or we as Service Providers should maintain. Maybe a wild idea but worth a shot. I would like to identify whole subnets from even sending traffic to our networks. Here is the IPs we have blocked recently... 188.161.142.151 188.161.135.62 85.114.97.106 113.105.152.137 121.14.149.148 113.105.152.131 113.105.152.135 188.161.130.5 121.14.149.148 188.161.135.62 188.161.155.180 188.225.184.117 95.35.189.89 188.161.241.77 95.35.211.88 188.225.193.97 Shut the buggers out!

Call recording solutions for Broadsoft
by bethjohnson5060＠gmail.com April 16, 2010

April 16, 2010

Hello all, We'd like to add a call recording solution to our Broadsoft network. Our weighted list of criteria are: stability stability stability features ease of use for end customers ease of use for administrators ease of implementation performance efficiency (whatnots per cpu, murphies per megabyte, etc) cost Yes, we do like our uptime, and we've got the budget to do it right the first time. In general, it seems that the marketplace has developed four different architectures: 1. Network sniffer - SPAN a port and try to make sense out of things by joining the SIP/RTP with configuration information 2. SIP server - Use SIP to redirect the call into a media proxy that captures the traffic 3. CALEA interface - Overload the CALEA function to provide recording services. 4. Dual number forward - Use two telephone numbers and a forwarding scheme to get a call into and out of a recording server at the TN level If you have experience with integrating a call recording solution with broadsoft, or thoughts on the various architectures, I'd be grateful to hear your opinion. Thank you very much.

Truth in CallerID act of 2010
by anorexicpoodle＠gmail.com April 15, 2010

April 15, 2010

While it hasn't been signed into law yet seems like its worth opening up a discussion on the topic since its something we all deal with. http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=111_cong_bills&do… The first questions that come to mind are: Where does the liability lie in a termination/wholesale situation where the termination carrier doesn't own the numbers terminating calls through their network? How does this impact services like SkypeOut or similar that mask all calls with a common number?

Avaya IP Office sending Caller ID
by ujjval＠simplesignal.com April 8, 2010

April 8, 2010

Hi Gents: Say if you have 2 extensions with following inbound routing to those on an Avaya IP Office: DID 3035551000 routes to ext 1000 DID 3035552000 routes to ext 2000 For outbound calls how can I make sure the DID 3035552000 shows up as the CallerID number. It only seems to Display 3035551000. The Avaya is sending the INVITE out to the SIP provider with 3035551000 in the FROM header even though SIP user Ext 2000 is making the call. Any ideas?

Cisco 2811

I am okay with support part. we have good team of engineers who can read manuals :) and I guess their software is mature enough for new bugs. So any referral to good cisco vendors? -N ________________________________ From: Nicholas Sten <nicksten at gmail.com> To: Naushit Sakarvadia <naushit at yahoo.com> Sent: Wed, April 7, 2010 10:45:47 AM Subject: Re: [VoiceOps] Cisco 2811 Naush, You can find one on the grey market, but technically, licensees are non-transferable and Cisco won't honor the license without getting the used gear certified by Cisco.

UK NTS scam

Can someone explain to me what the scam is on calls to + 44844 (UK NTS). I'm seeing a bit of traffic to these destinations and it just doesn't feel right, and they all answer to strange IVRs. I'm assuming someone has had this issue before. Thanks, Colin

Acme Packet (Abraham Jacobowitz)

In days long past I bought a Redback SMS-1800 off eBay and paid Redback to get it re-certified. Once it was re-certfied I could buy a support contract on the box. It was still cheaper than buying new, best of both worlds I guess. I don't know if Acme provides re-certification but it wouldn't hurt to ask. It seems very wasteful to junk a perfectly good piece of hardware because the vendor only wants to sell new. -Matt -- Matthew S. Crocker President Crocker Communications, Inc.

Contacts for in-progress phishing scams?
by nicholas.hatch＠gmail.com April 2, 2010

April 2, 2010

Hi all, I've been receiving bizarre credit card phishing calls which are far more sophisticated than many I've heard of. The caller purports to be be from "Card Services" and says you qualify for interest rate adjustments. They then lure you into providing your credit card number, expiration date, and other information. The calls I received carried CID : 714-360-xxxx. When you call this number, a recording says something along the lines of "this is a scam. The person who called you was trying to get your credit card number. Please call your local law enforcement, your bank, and don't give out any information." This leads me to believe that SIP fraud is probably involved here too. There is another number (772-408-13xx) which is still live and accepting phone calls. The scam has been going for several days now. The banking industry has its own set of fraud-prevention groups, but I'm unsure about their efficacy in cases of ongoing scams like this. Does anyone have any appropriate contacts (law enforcement, or otherwise) who would be clueful and appropriate to contact? Thanks, -Nick
