Queue Not Dialing Out To Cell Phone For Some Reason

Hello, I have queues.conf setup with a group like so:
[Sales](StandardQueue)
announce = first member => SIP/FF4C119EEBF8-SLS
member => SIP/FF9EF375CCFC-SLS
member => SIP/13145555555@callcentric ;Eric’s cell member => SIP/FF1565AABB2D-SLS ;Eric’s Yealink So, my idea here that it should ring all 4 phones at the same time. And it does work but randomly.I did trace a call and this is what I see. Only 2 phones (internal) called. External SIP@callcentric is not being called. Any idea why it’s not being called?

    I would suspect that the cell phone does use battery saving causing the SIP application to lose registration with the server. Would also suggest using TCP with a fairly short keepalive to prevent the cellular network from tearing down the connection to the asterisk server.

    You need to go into android settings and make sure the SIP client is whitelisted in battery management.

    Hello,

    I have queues.conf setup with a group like so:

    [Sales](StandardQueue)
    announce = first member => SIP/FF4C119EEBF8-SLS
    member => SIP/FF9EF375CCFC-SLS
    member => SIP/13145555555@callcentric ;Eric’s cell member => SIP/FF1565AABB2D-SLS ;Eric’s Yealink

    So, my idea here that it should ring all 4 phones at the same time. And it does work but randomly.

    I did trace a call and this is what I see. Only 2 phones (internal) called. External SIP@callcentric is not being called.

    Any idea why it’s not being called?

  • Sebastian, I don’t think it has to do anything with registration. It is dialing through the SIP trunk, so it goes out as normal cell phone call.Also, why I don’t see anything in a log? I see only first 2 members being dialed.

    Aha, I tought you had a SIP client (like MizuDroid or similiar) that registred via data connection to the asterisk server.

    Seems theres a problem with the trunk then.

    What does ”sip show registry” tell you?

    (asterisk -r in console and then sip show registry)

    It should show a status of ”Registred” to your trunk operator.

  • what does the output of ‘queue show sales’ show?

    Do you have queue logging enabled? Have you looked in the queue log to see what events are firing?

  • John, This is output of command below. How do I enable and log queue events?The 1555@callcentric is the one I’m curious about. I just tried calling into “sales” again and it didn’t change this “last was 1219067” output Sales has 0 calls (max unlimited) in ‘ringall’ strategy (9s holdtime, 156s talktime), W:0, C:4, A:6, SL:0.0% within 0s
       Members:
          SIP/15555555555@callcentric (ringinuse disabled) (Not in use) has taken 4 calls (last was 1219067 secs ago)
          SIP/FF4C119EEBF8-SLS (ringinuse disabled) (Not in use) has taken no calls yet

    OK.

    So it looks like asterisk can’t ring FF1565AABB2D-SLS because it’s invalid.

    is the user at  ‘15555555555’ actually able the answer calls? I wouldn’t expect that agent to work configured that way, I’d use a LOCAL channel to direct the call to a context that sets the call up before dialing out.

    You configure queue logging in logger.conf , Look at the settings queue_log = yes queue_log_to_file = yes queue_log_name = queue_log

    John, This is output of command below. How do I enable and log queue events?The 1555@callcentric is the one I’m curious about. I just tried calling into “sales” again and it didn’t change this “last was 1219067” output Sales has 0 calls (max unlimited) in ‘ringall’ strategy (9s holdtime, 156s talktime), W:0, C:4, A:6, SL:0.0% within 0s

  • John, FF1565AABB2D-SLS is probably invalid because it’s not registered/lost registration. This client is connected via VPN to our network, it usually works when it’s “warm”. Not concerned about it too much.
    15555555555@callcentric OTOH is an actual cell phone that should be dialed out via callcentric trunk. Maybe I’m smoking something thinking it was working before. I know it works from extensions.conf ————————-[globals]
    ERIC_CELL=SIP/15555555555@callcentric… exten => 105,1,Dial(${ERIC_CELL}&${ERIC_OFFICE},30)
            same => n,VoiceMail(105@default,u)
    ———————————

  • My settings for the queue.log are in the [general] section of logger.conf

    I’m running 13, I didn’t see what version you said you were running.

    If I wanted to add a LOCAL channel to my queue I’d do it as

    member => LOCAL/7124@kiniston-intern,0,John,hint:7124@kiniston-intern

  • John, Thanks for reply! I use 13.1-cert1, plain vanilla Asterisk. Installed and configured as per book.. So, from what I understand – LOCAL means I want local extension to be a member of a queue. For example, I have this:
    [internal]
    ;Eric on extension 105
    exten => 105,1,Dial(${ERIC_CELL}&${ERIC_OFFICE},30)
            same => n,VoiceMail(105@default,u)
    ———————-

  • Got it working! Thanks a lot again. As a bonus, is there a background on why SIP/ did not work with a sip trunk provider? 🙂

    So, LOCAL in this context is a ‘Technology’ or ‘Channel Driver’ , Instead of PJSIP, SIP, IAX, it’s sending a call to a dialplan target.

    Your entry in queues.conf with LOCAL/105@internal would send the call to the context ‘internal’ extension ‘105’ and execute whatever that dialplan does.

    The parameters I gave are actually part of the Queue member definition,

    From the example queues.conf:

     Each member of this call queue is listed on a separate line in
    ; the form technology/dialstring.  “member” means a normal member of a
    ; queue.  An optional penalty may be specified after a comma, such that
    ; entries with higher penalties are considered last.  An optional member
    ; name may also be specified after a second comma, which is used in log
    ; messages as a “friendly name”.  Multiple interfaces may share a single
    ; member name. An optional state interface may be specified after a third
    ; comma. This interface will be the one for which app_queue receives device
    ; state notifications, even though the first interface specified is the one
    ; that is actually called.
    ;
    ; A hint can also be used in place of the state interface using the format
    ; hint:@. If no context is specified then ‘default’ will
    ; be used.

    So 0 is the Penalty for the user Then ‘eric’ is the Member name and the state interface is using the hint defined for the user.
