Depending on the region you serve 360networks... Yes, shameless plug but we have geo redundancy and we are easy to work with. We notify you of changes and keep to our maint. Windows. And same Sonus infrastructure... Best, Rick ----- Original Message ----- From: voiceops-bounces at voiceops.org <voiceops-bounces at voiceops.org> To: voiceops at voiceops.org <voiceops at voiceops.org> Sent: Sat Aug 22 06:59:07 2009 Subject: [VoiceOps] Carrier choices Alrighty all, I'm wondering whose been a successful, competent, reliable provider in your opinion. I don't want to ramble on about any specific company, but I have a gripe with one of my carriers. Currently I use Level3, Global and Verizon. Anyone have other reliable providers who don't make full-blown equipment swapouts without change management (reversion) plans during business hours ;) Difficult to find an all-inclusive list of carriers. I know about XO and Qwest, but anyone else using a reliable peer I'm overlooking. Off-list replies welcomed however, I wouldn't want to hear full-blown gripes. I've had enough from clients this week due to one of my carriers and their desire to yank/change equipment without 1) notifying us of a change(potential outage) not reverting/resolving fast enough. So imagine your entire VoIP ITSP infrastructure down the first time for 8+ hours, only for the same carrier to come back and do the exact same thing within 10 days for 9+ hours more. Yes sir/maam, I've had headaches this week. -- =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ J.

Does anyone implement RFC 3219?
by jonathan＠thurmantech.com Aug. 22, 2009

Aug. 22, 2009

Does anyone use RFC 3219 - Telephony Routing over IP (TRIP), or are there any vendors that implement it? After doing some research into different peering methods, I am not sure why this seems to have failed. Here is a link to some useful information about TRIP if you don't know about it: http://www.packetizer.com/ipmc/trip/ Thanks -Jonathan

Call forwarding issue
by Rod.Dossouvi.CTR＠dot.gov Aug. 20, 2009

Aug. 20, 2009

user is trying to have calls forwarded to her cell phone. When enters: 9-xxx-xxxx, local callers get forwarded fine, but long distance callers get an error. Alternatively, when user enters: 9-1-615-xxx-xxxx, long distance callers can now get through, but local callers get the same error. Any input? Thank you.

TDM SS7 <-> SIP with Cisco, Dialogic IMG1010 and/or AudioCodes Mediant gear...
by pchilds＠internode.com.au Aug. 19, 2009

Aug. 19, 2009

Gday folks. I'm looking at some TDM SS7 to SIP options to interconnect our BroadSoft/ACME SBC platform to a more traditional SS7/TDM telco. We have been checking out a PGW based solution, and also some of the more 'gateway' type devices (such as those from Dialogic and/or AudioCodes...) Whilst this may seem a very 'open ended' question has anyone had any hands on dealing with these solutions that can highlight any potential concerns and/or positive experiences? Cheers, Peter

Billing platforms
by voiceops＠treharne.me.uk Aug. 19, 2009

Aug. 19, 2009

Hi folks, What billing/rating/mediation systems are people using, out of interest? I think I've managed to hit both ends of the scale so far - I've worked with home-grown systems with lots of python scripts and very tight integration with existing internally developed CRM....and on the other end of the scale I've worked with Oracle Portal (snappily renamed post-acquisition as Oracle Billing and Revenue Management System). Cheers, Aled.
