White Label VOIP Platform, Broadsoft, Meta, etc

We are searching for a new wholesale Broadworks provider and I am reaching out to this list for suggestions. One requirement that we have is that we can retain control of at least the Origination provider, we have many DID numbers and believe it would be too costly to port the numbers, it would be nice to also be able to control E911 providers and Termination, but it is not required. Another requirement is native API access for provisioning from our billing system. We do a mixture of residential and commercial HPBX. We are not completely tied to Broadsoft at this time, but it must be a solution that meets our basic requirements and supports both residential and business/enterprise customers on HPBX.

2015 Softswitch
by colton.conor＠gmail.com Nov. 21, 2015

Nov. 21, 2015

I am still on the search for a 2015 grade multi-tenant soft-switch. Something that can compete with Vonage Business, Switch.co, and other newer innovative phone services. Here are the requirements I am looking for, so if anyone knows of something that fits this bill please let me know: 1. Has the ability to support SMS and MMS already. I am tired of so many softswitch vendors saying they are adding SMS or MMS as a coming soon item. It is 2015 people. SMS has been around since as long as I can remember. Most of the large wholesalers (bandwidth.com, Level3) support SMS, and some are supporting MMS. Not only should the softswitch support it, but they should have some way to allow the user to send and view these messages. 2. Supports call recording on both the inbound and outbound side. Should be able to see call recording through the web interface. Web interface for overall platform should be user friendly, and hopefully HTML5 based. 3. Supports Music on hold where you can upload multiple files. It can play these files in random order like a radio station. 4. Supports the OPUS codec and VP8 for WebRTC capabilities. Hopefully already has WebRTC capabilities. 5. Has a device provisioner where we can modify the XML files for each device at the global, group, or seat level. So many of our customers have special needs, and a one size fits all device template simply will not cut it. We should be able to reboot phones remotely, and push firmware. 6. Built in faxing support. 7. Voice Quality Monitoring built in. Should show MOS scores, Jitter, Packet Loss, for each call through the platform. 8. Busy Lamp field integration. 9. Some sort for mobile integration (beyond just call forwarding) for mobile employees who don't want a desk phone. This can be apps for smartphones, or something else. Most vendors say well our softswitch is SIP compliant so you can use the 1000's of apps that support SIP already. That will not cut it. 10. All the advanced features one would expect out of any modern hosted PBX offering. Auto attendants, call forwarding, time of day rules, voicemail to email, etc.. Does this simply not exist and I am asking for too much? Each of these are things my clients are requesting for.

Preventing random SIP connections to handsets
by caalvarez＠gmail.com Nov. 21, 2015

Nov. 21, 2015

We're starting to see customers who get random arbitrary ringing caused by a random connection attempt from the internet. Most of our customers have Cisco routers with full-cone NAT, so it's easy to do that. We don't reinvite handsets, we proxy the media, so we've considered using restricted NAT instead. If we can figure out how, we can't find any documentation on how to do it, and don't have a response to our Cisco TAC case on it yet. But I figured I'd ask if others have come up with better solutions. I know there are a few authentication options in the phones themselves, but they seem to vary greatly by vendor and even by model. I like to do things as simply and system-wide as possible. We primarily sell Grandstream, and we support Cisco/Linksys SPA as well as Polycom IP series (not VVX). We're an Asterisk-based hosted service provider.

Yealink's new "E2" hardware variants
by pete＠fiberphone.co.nz Nov. 3, 2015

Nov. 3, 2015

Hi list, Does anyone here have any information they can share on what the difference is with the new 'E2' variants of some of Yealink's phones? We have a reasonable number of YL phones in our fleet, and a few months back we noticed our new stock was starting to be supplied as SIP-T21P E2s after SIP-T21P went EOL with our country's distributor (which was not long at all after SIP-T20P went EOL!). We now have SIP-T19P E2s arriving new too (instead of SIP-T19 prior). These new E2 variants use different hardware identifiers and run different version numbers. They look to use a different build of a the same source code. They don't appear to accept downloaded configurations from the non-E2 variants. Just wondering if anyone in the know can share what the change is under the good? Only for interest's sake really. I've done a bit of Googling, but haven't determined much other than that TI Titan and Aries seem to be used in other products. I'm guessing it's perhaps a change of CPU platform or some other chipset change.

Need service provider to transfer numbers to.
by nanog＠wjp.net Nov. 2, 2015

Nov. 2, 2015

I know this is more of an operations mailing list, but I have recently left a company that has routed my phone numbers for the past 10+ years (as an employee.) Does anyone know of a company that can port 10 individual numbers, two 800 numbers, and 200 DID numbers for a low cost and offers: - Cheap or low cost porting fees. - Forwarding of a single number to multiple destinations (ring all, first one that answers gets the call) - Voicemail to email on a number - Flat rate or low per minute fees. = Web portal to change routing and/or destination numbers. - SIP destination for certain numbers. These have been personal numbers for many years, just looking for a service provider who can help me keep my phone numbers for the lowest cost possible. thanks bill
