Cisco SBC - feedback ?
by benc＠brennanit.com.au Nov. 23, 2009

Nov. 23, 2009

Greeting, I recently came across Cisco's offering for a SBC -> The 'ACE20-SBC-K9' http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/routers/7600/install_config/sbc_config_guid… I was Curious who out there uses this and what their thoughts on the product was or any feedback for that matter on it. Up until recently we were heading down the Acme Packet path, however most of our Current infrastructure is Cisco, so it kinda of makes sense to take a serious look at this. Cheers.

Yate B2BUA as media gateway controller
by abalashov＠evaristesys.com Nov. 17, 2009

Nov. 17, 2009

The release notes of Yate 2.1 (released 02 November 2009) contain what struck me initially as a somewhat extraordinary claim - that its new MTP2/MTP3 support combined with MGCP can be used as a drop-in replacement for a Cisco PGW2200 to drive Cisco AS5xxx series gateways. At first glance, this does appear to be possible. Does anyone have any experience or first-hand perspective on this? Of course, the media gateway control protocol is limited to MGCP - there is no H.248/MEGACO support.

PSTN connection to SONUS

Actually you'll probably want to use a PRI config ISUP is used if you're connecting to a switch that requires SS7 signalling. as far as I'm aware, asterisk doesn't support SS7. you'll need to use the Sonus EMS Task Configurator to build a PRI trunk group this should be all covered in the online help. Make sure you set the "Switch Side Behavior" to Network and set a switch type that matches what you set the Asterisk configuration to. --J > > Hi Jason=20 > > Thanks for the information that you gave.

Billing of Forwarded Calls
by scott＠sberkman.net Nov. 11, 2009

Nov. 11, 2009

So how do most of you deal with billing of forwarded calls (specifically where the calling number on the forwarded leg is using the original calling number from the inbound leg) in a SIP environment when the originally called number is not preserved in the new invite? In this case there is no way to match the calling or called number to a specific customer. Do you bill by IP address or interface instead? Do you somehow use a system that correlates the forwarded leg to the original inbound leg? I've come across this issue a few different times when trying to bill off of SIP messaging logs, for instance radius off a SIP SBC or SQL logs from SER. Thanks, -Scott

Load balancing
by anorexicpoodle＠gmail.com Nov. 11, 2009

Nov. 11, 2009

I have come across the need for a stateful SIP load balancer with fail-over and HA capabilities, and I am hoping some on this list can chime in with some personal experience. The need is not for a particularly large volume of traffic, more to act as a socket to adapt my active/active model UM system to Metaswitch's 1:1 UM system model, which cannot support active/active application servers. Yes I felt this was a strange omission in functionality as well. I have pretty much ruled out OpenSER/OpenSIPS/Kamilio because it isn't stateful in HA failover. Passing it through an Acme is ridiculously costly for the need i have, and most hardware based load balancers I am finding just aren't sip-aware, so I don't see them doing much better than OpenSER in a fail-over scenario, it would just be a different kind of ugliness. Thanks in advance

What is the general consensus on CPE for hosted VoIP customers that are providing their own connectivity. Are you using whatever the customer provides, requiring a particular device, etc.? We typically use Edgewater, just wanted to see what others were doing.
