National SMS Issues?
by beckman＠angryox.com Aug. 5, 2016

Aug. 5, 2016

Starting 2 days ago, we saw issues with Broadvox DIDs ability to deliver SMS to two of our carriers. This continues through today. And today, starting around 15:05 UTC, we are seeing issued with SMS deliverability to our DIDs through Bandwidth DIDs. Is anyone monitoring SMS? Is this an SAP or NetNumber issue or another carrier? Just now I got this email from Fairfax County VA 911: A national provider who delivers texts to 9-1-1 to Fairfax County is experiencing service related issues. If you text 9-1-1 and it does not go through, please call 9-1-1. Hearing or visually impaired persons should consider using Virginia Relay Service. Fairfax County will provide an update when the problem is resolved. Follow us on Twitter for updates. https://fairfaxcountyemergency.wordpress.com/2016/08/05/fairfax-county-expe… If you know something, fill us in!

IP Telephony Managed Service Provider in the US?
by ghenry＠suretec.co.uk July 31, 2016

July 31, 2016

Hi all, Is there anyone in the US that can offer this for a US based company? Key requirements (from one of our US customers): * US-based redundant PBX hardware. This is largely due to the fact that round-trip times to US-based PBX hardware would induce larger-than-desired delays in the communications link, but relying on trans-Atlantic network links strikes me as hazardous, too. * SRTP and encrypted SIP- preferably with large key sizes (4096 bits) * Flexible device support- primarily Polycom VVX 500 desk sets, but a smattering of other devices and VOIP softphones as well. * Managed- not just hosted- service. When there's a problem, all we do it report it and the provider takes responsibility for restoring service. System and software updates, security audits, etc, are handled proactively without need for us to initiate * Find me-Follow me, preferably user-configurable * Individually addressable desk/mobile extensions * Personal conference rooms, accessible from a 5-digit extension number and a single DID line/IVR setup. No 18-digit dialing requirements for conference rooms. * Call queues with self-serve membership * US and EMEA presence for inbound calling * Reasonably-priced global outbound calling * Music On Hold (Symas can provide content) * HD-Voice and other modern codecs * Voicemail * High-quality system voice prompts. * Shared BLF, preferably user-programmable * Intercom where supported * Call Hold/Forward/Transfer/Ad-hoc conference/Park/DND Extras and nice-to-haves: * REST API for integrating with IDAM solutions * Template-based configuration- ideally used in conjunction with REST API. * Flat-rate pricing, at least provided we stay within some defined level of PBX complexity and size Thoughts? -- Kind Regards, Gavin Henry.

SIP door intercom-phones
by caalvarez＠gmail.com July 18, 2016

July 18, 2016

I need to deploy a few outdoor-rated speakerphones for a customer, to serve in place of the old intercom systems. The ONLY thing they need to do is dial a single pre-set number on our system when a button is pressed. So really, just looking for an outdoor speaker phone with a "dial from memory" button. Does anyone have one they really like? 802.11af would be a nice bonus, but not absolutely required.

Call Quality Scoring?
by mgraves＠mstvp.com July 12, 2016

July 12, 2016

This may be a silly question.....is there any way that I can get a MOS or PESQ score for a call? I have an access line in Malaysia that's really quite bad quality. The provider says it "sounds fine to them." I'd like to have some empirical evidence that it's bad. I've setup an automated system to answer the line a play a known recording. Now I just need some way to take a measurement. Any ideas? Thanks, Michael Graves mgraves at mstvp.com http://www.mgraves.org o(713) 861-4005 c(713) 201-1262 sip:mgraves at mjg.onsip.com skype mjgraves

Hello all, We are looking for recommendations for reliable wholesale Mexico DID providers with wide coverage, international reachability and consistent Caller ID delivery. Currently using Voxbone but looking to diversify. Ideal price point is below $2.5 per DID and .003/minute if metered or ~$6/channel if channel based. Also happy to hear about termination vendors that specialize in Mexico routes. Thanks! Aviv

Issues reaching UK DIDs and UK Numbers?
by beckman＠angryox.com June 24, 2016

June 24, 2016

I'm not sure if it is Brexit related, but a customer is reporting and we are seeing delays, higher-than-usual busy responses and straight-up failures in reaching UK destinations, and reaching some of our London DIDs. We're in communication with our carriers for both orig and term; I'm curious if others are seeing similar issues in and with UK numbers. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Peter Beckman Internet Guy beckman at angryox.com http://www.angryox.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Adapting nonDIDs to a E.164 plan
by tony.zunt＠gmail.com June 24, 2016

June 24, 2016

Good morning. I could use the opinion and expertise of this group for a quick question. I work for a large not-for-profit organization which is coordinating dial plans for several sites. We have a contiguous block of 50K DIDs which gets us off to a nice start for an E.164 plan. We also own about 15K other DIDs shotgunned throughout several NADP area codes, which would also mesh nicely into an E.164 plan. Assume we are able to us ISDN and SIP. My question is, what is the best way to handle devices which are currently assigned nonDIDs on our private voice network? Obviously, they are not addressable from the PSTN now, so it's not a big deal if they can't be called from the outside. What I am struggling with to explain to my group is how these numbers may be best adapted to the new plan so that they can still be called internally. I have looked for related RFCs. I thought I found one that suggested using a generically owned E.164 number followed by a semi-colon and the nonDID address. I can't find the RFC now. That may work for equipment that can form a URI like that. I also suggested assigning a real E.164 number to these devices. Too many. I also considered most our our IPPBXs have an intercom feature that allows us to group and assign a locally significant address to the devices. That might be the way to go. I'm interested to hear how other people are doing this downtown. Is the group aware of any related RFCs we may review? Thanks and have a great weekend! Tony
