[asterisk-users] 1.4 - SLA

[Bill Gibbs]

I have been using 2 Polycom 430s so far.  I can get incoming calls just
fine (both phones ring on line 1).  However it doesn't appear to seize
the line, so if a call is on the one phone, I can still pick up line 1
on the other and dial - and it's reflected in the connected call.  I
assume that's related to the hint/subscription issue Lacy indicated as
well.  "sip show subscriptions" shows nothing.

I just started playing with it this morning however...still playing
around w/ the configs.

One odd thing, I keep seeing some weirdness:
[Mar  5 13:10:52] VERBOSE[9381] logger.c: Looking for 105 in default
(domain x.x.x.x)
And also Looking for 103

Yet I have no idea where those values are coming from!

I am running 1.6.7.

Here is a snippet of the phone config from one of the phones:
<reg reg.1.displayName="Line 1" reg.1.address="station2_line1"
reg.1.label="Line 1" reg.1.type="shared"
reg.1.thirdPartyName="2404366402-2" reg.1.auth.userId="2404366402-2"
reg.1.auth.password="1234" reg.1.server.1.address=""
reg.1.server.1.port="" reg.1.server.1.transport="DNSnaptr"
reg.1.server.2.transport="DNSnaptr" reg.1.server.1.expires="60"
reg.1.server.1.register="1

I noticed that I had to set the reg.x.address field to the
stationX_lineX value or the phone wouldn't fill in the "icon"
image...but it would accept cals.  Still not completely clear but I am
making progress!

If you aren't seeing any lights change on the phones when calls are 
going on, check "sip show subscriptions" at the CLI.  If the phones have

not properly subscribed to the right extensions, you won't see anything.

You are correct.  The sample configuration is missing the template.  I 
will add it now.  However, I just made the tarballs for 1.4.1, so this 
config fix didn't make it in.

As I noted earlier, check your "sip show subscriptions" to make sure the

phones are subscribed to the right thing.

Another helpful thing that you can use for debugging is to look at the 
output of "sla show stations".  You can see the state of each line 
appearance on each station.  This should correspond with what you see on

the phone  ... unless there is a problem, of course.

I have been testing with a variety of different phones.  I have not 
tested all of the Polycom models, yet.  This is one of the things we're 
going to have to work through.  I would like to document issues with 
specific phones in sla.txt as we come across them.

The configuration I'm using for testing looks just like the stuff in 
configs/sla.conf.sample.  Essentially, it is:


[line1]
type=trunk
device=Zap/3
autocontext=line1

[line2]
type=trunk
device=Zap/4
autocontext=line2

[station](!)
type=station
autocontext=sla_stations
trunk=line1
trunk=line2

[station1] (station)
device=SIP/station1

[station2](station)
device=SIP/station2

[station3](station)
device=SIP/station3


Thanks for providing some feedback on this.  You are the first one to 
say anything about it.  :)  I am very eager to get everything working 
well so that everyone is happy.  Just please be patient as I work 
through the initial flood of reports since it is just now getting out in

the field.
