Description Jaco Kroon 2010-09-16 08:44:42 UTC

A lot of user equipment assumes that the network is in PTMP mode with no easy way of changing that.  libpri 1.4.11.?? has now implemented that mode, and this patch is a back-port from the code in asterisk 1.8.0 beta5 into asterisk.

There could be more code required but this is the minimal code that seems to work.  If only an older libpri is available it should automatically revert to using the "sucks for you" message and preventing chan_dahdi from loading.  It should not affect anybody not using bri_net_ptmp.

I've done some basic call testing in both directions but I'm not an ISDN expert by far and your mileage may vary if you're using this mode.

Reproducible: Always

I manually applied the patch after ebuild asterisk-1.6.2.11-r1.ebuild clean unpack and before prepare, after which I checked the configure file before issuing a ebuild ... merge.

After that I did a few very basic call checks (ability to make and receive calls on the port).

This will go on 1.6.2.13; please test against that ebuild.

Comment 3 Jaco Kroon 2010-09-16 09:33:35 UTC

You've been busy as well ... it applies cleanly (with some fuzz) and compiles (applied after unpack, before prepare).  Easiest is (imho) to just add into the patch set.  I can rediff if you really need something that applies without fuzz.
