ckleea

The Asterisk Development Team has announced the release of Asterisk 1.6.2.11.
This release is available for immediate download at
http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/

The release of Asterisk 1.6.2.11 resolves several issues reported by the
community and would have not been possible without your participation.
Thank you!

The following are a few of the issues resolved by community developers:

* Send DialPlanComplete as a response, not as a separate event. Otherwise, it
   goes to all manager sessions and may exclude the current session, if the
   Events mask excludes it.
   (Closes issue #17504. Reported, patched by rrb3942)

* Allow the "useragent" value to be restored into memory from the realtime
   backend. This value is purely informational. It does not alter configuration
   at all.
   (Closes issue #16029. Reported, patched by Guggemand)

* Fix rt(c)p set debug ip taking wrong argument Also clean up some coding
   errors.
   (Closes issue #17469. Reported, patched by wdoekes)

* Ensure channel placed in meetme in ringing state is properly hung up. An
   outgoing channel placed in meetme while still ringing which was then hung up
   would not exit meetme and the channel was not properly destroyed.
   (Closes issue #15871. Reported, patched by Ivan)

* Correct how 100, 200, 300, etc. is said. Also add the crazy British numbers.
   (Closes issue #16102. Reported, patched by Delvar)

* cdr_pgsql does not detect when a table is found. This change adds an ERROR
   message to let you know when a failure exists to get the columns from the
   pgsql database, which typically means that the table does not exist.
   (Closes issue #17478. Reported, patched by kobaz)

* Avoid crashing when installing a duplicate translation path with a lower
   cost.
   (Closes issue #17092. Reported, patched by moy)

* Add missing handling for ringing state for use with queue empty options.
   (Closes issue #17471. Reported, patched by jazzy)

* Fix reporting estimated queue hold time. Just say the number of seconds
   (after minutes) rather than doing some incorrect calculation with respect to
   minutes.
   (Closes issue #17498. Reported, patched by corruptor)

The Asterisk Development Team has announced the release of Asterisk 1.8.0-beta3.
This release is available for immediate download at
http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/asterisk/

All interested users of Asterisk are encouraged to participate in the 1.8
testing process. Please report any issues found to the issue tracker,
http://issues.asterisk.org/. It is also very useful to see successful test
reports. Please post those to the asterisk-dev mailing list.

Asterisk 1.8 is the next major release series of Asterisk. It will be a Long
Term Support (LTS) release, similar to Asterisk 1.4. For more information about
support time lines for Asterisk releases, see the Asterisk versions page.

http://www.asterisk.org/asterisk-versions

This release contains fixes since the last beta release as reported by the
community. A sampling of the changes in this release include:

* Fix a regression where HTTP would always be enabled regardless of setting.
   (Closes issue #17708. Reported, patched by pabelanger)

* ACL errors displayed on screen when using dynamic_exclude_static in sip.conf
   (Closes issue #17717. Reported by Dennis DeDonatis. Patched by mmichelson)

* Support "channels" in addition to "channel" in chan_dahdi.conf.
   (https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/804)

* Fix parsing error in sip_sipredirect(). The code was written in a way that
   did a bad job of parsing the port out of a URI. Specifically, it would do
   badly when dealing with an IPv6 address.
   (Closes issue #17661. Reported by oej. Patched by mmichelson)

* Fix inband DTMF detection on outgoing ISDN calls.
   (Patched by russellb and rmudgett)

* Fixes issue with translator frame not getting freed. This issue prevented
   g729 licenses from being freed up.
   (Closes issue #17630. Reported by manvirr. Patched by dvossel)

* Fixed IPv6-related SIP parsing bugs and updated documention.
   (Reported by oej. Patched by sperreault)

* Add new, self-contained feature FIELDNUM(). Returns a 1-based index into a
   list of a specified item. Matches up with FIELDQTY() and CUT().
   (Closes #17713. Reported, patched by gareth. Tested by tilghman)


Asterisk 1.8 contains many new features over previous releases of Asterisk.
A short list of included features includes:

    * Secure RTP
    * IPv6 Support
    * Connected Party Identification Support
    * Calendaring Integration
    * A new call logging system, Channel Event Logging (CEL)
    * Distributed Device State using Jabber/XMPP PubSub

Thank you for your information. If the Asterisk 1.8 is a stable version rather than beta version, I shall install it without anydoubt.

ckleea

Same here for 1.8

But 1.6.2.11 rpm is not yet ready to update

bubblestar

Thanks for the information.

ckleea

Centos RPM Asterisk 1.6.2.11 just available for download

I have made a service restart to see if there is any difference.

角色

I have already updated the Asterisk 1.4.35. As recommened by ckleea CHing, Asterisk upgrade using yum is very convenient.

ckleea

有趣？剛剛yum update again asterisk 1.6.11。唔知點解？

角色

不明白你上面的意思！那么能否用yum update了？

角色

ckleea

update once before but somehow I can update again.

Asterisk 1.8 beta 4 has already been released. Once it is in production version, I shall consider to install it.

YH, This may be useful for you

The Asterisk Development Team is pleased to announce the release of
DAHDI-Linux and DAHDI-Tools version 2.4.0.

DAHDI-Linux 2.4.0, DAHDI-Tools 2.4.0, and DAHDI-Linux-Complete are
available for immediate download at:
http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/dahdi-linux
http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/dahdi-tools
http://downloads.asterisk.org/pub/telephony/dahdi-linux-complete

In addition to several bug fixes, the most significant changes from the
2.3.0 release are:

General DAHDI Changes:

* Added DAHDI_MAINT_ALARM_SIM maintenance mode for drivers that
support alarm simulation (wct4xxp).  This is only used by
dahdi_maint and doesn't change the ABI.

* Span callbacks are moved out of the dahdi_span structure potentially
saving memory when a single driver implements multiple spans.

Updated Drivers:

* wctdm24xxp, wcte12xp: Fix bug when moving to memory mapped registers
where the interrupt handler was run twice for every interrupt.

* wctdm24xxp, wcte12xp: Processing moved back to interrupt handler.
(Closes issue #17289 Reported by alecdavis)

* wctdm24xxp, wcte12xp: Update VPMADT032 firmware to 1.25.  Contains
improvements to prevent loss of convergence when signal levels go
over a certain threshold and for handling line condition changes.

* wctdm24xxp: Fix race conditions/improvements in FXS line feed register
handling.
(Closes issues #17724 and #17764. Reported and patched by alecdavis)

* wctdm24xxp: Added "companding" module parameter to replace
"alawoverride".  When BRI modules are installed on a Hx8 board alaw is
the default companding so change the semantics to just allow the
companding to be forced as opposed to overriding a default.  The
default is "auto" which means alaw if there are BRI modules, otherwise
ulaw.

* wctdm24xxp: Set 'spantype' for digital spans so that they can be
displayed with dahdi_scan.

* wcte12xp: dahdi_cfg does not need to be called twice when using RBS
signalling.

* wcte12xp: Loopback module parameter removed since 'dahdi_maint' can
now put the spans in digital loopback.

* wct4xxp: Add 'latency', 'max_latency', and 'ms_per_irq' module
parameters to set expected latency conditions when using Gen5
firmware.

* wct4xxp: Added support for network loopback modes via dahdi_maint.

* wct4xxp: Which span is providing card timing is now exported via
sysfs.

* wcb4xxp: Fixed pulse mask for improved TBR3 compliance.

* wcb4xxp: Added pci-ids for Junghanns PCI-E cards.

* wcb4xxp: Added 'companding' module parameter.

* wcb4xxp: Fixed bug when using automatic timing sync.

* wcb4xxp: Which span is providing card timing is now exported via
sysfs.

* wctdm: Added configurable debounce to support old rotary phones.
(Closes issue #16339.  Reported by alecdavis patch by tilghman.)

* xpp:
FXS: support VMWI config from Asterisk >= 1.6.1
  PRI:
   - PRI Astribanks always sync AB (and independent)
   - don't send "duplicates" in E1 as in D4
   - Reduce noise at E1 startup.
   - T1 CAS fixes.
PIC 4 rev. 7381: fix T1 returning signaling register in non-CAS


Changes to dahdi-tools:

* dahdi_maint: Added support for simulating alarm conditions.

* dahdi_scan: Report more detailed alarm information.

* xpp_fxloader:
- Load firmware in the background
- Support 1163 twinstar devices
- A delay loop for older kernels (e.g. 2.6.18)

* astribank_is_starting does not depend on libusb.

* Allow using CONNECTOR/LABEL in genconf_parameters for pri_termtype
