Hi folks, I'm trying to use either libss7 (preferably) or chan_ss7 with a Sangoma A108 card but I have issues with both. To summarise, the issue appears to be that the port will not enter a "CONNECTED" state but rather stays in a "Connecting" state and so I cannot pass frames on it. At least this is what I believe the issue is. For libss7, I used current (today's) Asterisk trunk, libpri trunk, Zaptel 1.4, libss7 trunk and wanpipe-3.2.5. For chan_ss7, I used current Asterisk 1.4 from SVN, libpri-1.4, Zaptel 1.4 and wanpipe-3.2.5 again. In both cases, the SS7 link was in NOT_ALIGNED and I could not progress it any further. I tried all manner of combinations of CIC numbering, etc from the expected to the crazy. The other end of the SS7 is a Nortel DMS100. I'm posting relevent command outputs and configs below for the chan_ss7 set-up (I'd need to reinstall trunk for libss7). Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Barry ########################################################################## ########################################################################## # wanpipemon -i w1g1 -c Ta ***** w1g1: E1 Alarms (Framer) ***** ALOS: OFF | LOS: OFF RED: ON | AIS: OFF OOF: ON | RAI: OFF ***** w1g1: E1 Performance Monitoring Counters ***** Line Code Violation : 745 Far End Block Errors : 0 CRC4 Errors : 0 FAS Errors : 0 Rx Level : > -2.5db ########################################################################## ########################################################################## # wanrouter status Devices currently active: wanpipe1 Wanpipe Config: Device name | Protocol Map | Adapter | IRQ | Slot/IO | If's | CLK | Baud rate | wanpipe1 | N/A | A101/1D/A102/2D/4/4D/8| 16 | 4 | 1 | EXT | 0 | Wanrouter Status: Device name | Protocol | Station | Status | wanpipe1 | AFT HDLC | N/A | Connecting | ########################################################################## ########################################################################## # ifconfig w1g1 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol UP POINTOPOINT NOARP MTU:8 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) Interrupt:16 Memory:ffffc20000d00000-d01fff ########################################################################## ########################################################################## # cat /etc/wanpipe/wanpipe1.conf #================================================ # WANPIPE1 Configuration File #================================================ # # Date: Wed Dec 6 20:29:03 UTC 2006 # # Note: This file was generated automatically # by /usr/local/sbin/setup-sangoma program. # # If you want to edit this file, it is # recommended that you use wancfg program # to do so. #================================================ # Sangoma Technologies Inc. #================================================ [devices] wanpipe1 = WAN_AFT_TE1, Comment [interfaces] w1g1 = wanpipe1, , TDM_VOICE, Comment [wanpipe1] CARD_TYPE = AFT S514CPU = A CommPort = PRI AUTO_PCISLOT = NO PCISLOT = 4 PCIBUS = 13 FE_MEDIA = E1 FE_LCODE = HDB3 FE_FRAME = CRC4 FE_LINE = 1 TE_CLOCK = NORMAL TE_REF_CLOCK = 0 TE_SIG_MODE = CCS TE_HIGHIMPEDANCE = NO LBO = 120OH FE_TXTRISTATE = NO MTU = 1500 UDPPORT = 9000 TTL = 255 IGNORE_FRONT_END = NO TDMV_SPAN = 1 TDMV_DCHAN = 0 TDMV_HW_DTMF = NO [w1g1] ACTIVE_CH = ALL TDMV_ECHO_OFF = NO TDMV_HWEC = YES ########################################################################## ########################################################################## # cat /etc/zaptel.conf #Sangoma A108 port 1 [slot:4 bus:13 span:1] <wanpipe1> span=1,0,0,ccs,hdb3,crc4 bchan=1-31 ########################################################################## ########################################################################## # cat /etc/asterisk/ss7.conf [linkset-siuc] enabled => yes enable_st => no use_connect => no hunting_policy => seq_lth context => ss7 language => en t35 => 15000,timeout subservice => auto [link-l1] linkset => siuc channels => 1-15,17-31 schannel => 16 firstcic => 1 enabled => yes echocancel => no echocan_train => 350 echocan_taps => 128 [host-A-Host] enabled => yes opc => 0x1 dpc => siuc:0x39B0 links => l1:1 ; The SCCP global title: translation-type, nature-of-address, numbering-plan, address globaltitle => 0x00, 0x04, 0x01, 4546931411 ssn => 7 ########################################################################## ########################################################################## *CLI> unload chan_ss7.so The 'unload' command is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
