How do I setup an Avaya - Asterisk H.323 Trunk

[AvayaEng]

Hi

I have a s8300 in a G700 running Avaya CM 3.0.1 and need to setup up H.323 Trunk to an Asterisk 2.3 PABX using openH323 1.1.2 running on CentosLinux. The link runs between a PIX firewall. With the ip address of the Asterisk and the s8300 able to see each other. The IP of the MGP VOIP engine can not see the Asterisk ip address.

When making a call the Avaya takes up a trunk but get a denail event: Normal Call Clearing. There is no hairpinning on the siginaling Group

Please can any on help.

Did you ever get this working? I have most working correctly but can not connect from Asterisk to Definity. Phone rings but will not "connect". Definity to Asterisk working correctly.

yes I did, what version of CM are you running? work@palmerfamily.co.za

G3siV12. Worked on this project this weekend. Currently I have the 323 trunk programmed and operational, somewhat. Definity can call Asterisk, Definity name is sent, looks good. When Asterisk calls Definity, phone rings. If you answer, Asterisk keeps ringing.

Make sure you have the following in you ooh323.conf file. I had to make them the default in order for i to work with my version.

disallow=all
allow=ulaw

Also make sure the follow are set on the avaya:

In signaling-group:
DTMF over IP: out-of-band

Also make sure that G711 is enabled in the network region on the avaya.

AvayaEng,

I have this all setup and working, except I can not make outbound calls. My PSTN trunks come into the avaya. The trace on the call gets a denial event 1218: ISDN invalid IE contents.

got this all working. Finally found problem with sound card on pc conflicting with h323. Built * on new different PC, copied config files and all is working.

I don't seem to be able to make calls from an Asterisk sip phone through the Definity.
