I don't want to be too hard on them, I really like the innovation they bring to this space. But if their business model is restricting the ability to properly pen-test and be proactive about security, they shouldn't be in the cloud business. User trust is the most valuable asset any cloud...

Phonebuff - Sorry I haven't checked in lately..... It's going well and will be used in a production environment next month. We've ramped up testing to ~40 simultaneous calls hitting the agi file that does the work- flawless so far. You really don't need much to kick off push notifications, so...

Solved the issue, finally! Working quite well! For reasons not entirely clear, I had to format the mysqli query in the php agi file differently to get it going. The original query works perfectly when run within the apache root directory, so this was very elusive. After much hair pulling, things...

Thanks tm1000, still wrestling with the vanilla asterisk version but will move onto freePBX if only for the debug tools if I can't get anywhere..... I haven't spent much time with it today. LAMP is installed on this box, and push works brilliantly with coded variables from the root apache...

Update: The Ubuntu 12.04 server with vanilla asterisk that I'm using to test has LAMP installed. I copied the file (push.php) to the apache root directory with hard coded variables and it works from there. I don't understand the nuances of asterisk's agi environment well enough to know why...

Ok, had a chance to work on this today. I'm currently testing on ubuntu 12.04 with vanilla asterisk 11 installed. cURL and the php5-curl extension is installed, and json encode is installed as it's included in php5. The agi file processing the push notification is called from the dialplan, and...

Thanks tm1000, i'll look deeper. One issue is the service we're building isn't for one phone, it's an off-network call mobile notification platform with both android & iOS app support. We're hoping to serve potentially 10's of thousands of unique mobile numbers.

Thanks Ward. I've used the gvoice module to send SMS replies, but in this case we need to use standard push notifications. The reason behind using push is because, frankly, push is proving to be more reliable than SMS and faster to boot. But the big reason against using SMS for our purposes...

The reverse actually. What I hope to accomplish is to send a push notification in response to an incoming call. Right now, when a call comes into the server, it's routed through a custom dialplan and agi file that parses the CID/RDNIS numbers from the invite packet and fills an external db...

I hope to heck I have it solved (or ruled out) by mid-June phonebuff. I can't find any guidance on the net or anyone attempting anything like this.

Update: Success! See my post further down...... Specifically using an agi script file to craft push notifications to android phones when a call arrives. This is for a mobile project that is using Asterisk to process inbound calls. The dialplan currently uses an agi script which plucks callerid...

Nitzan's a great guy, and frequent contributor @ BBR's voiptech forum. His service looks decidedly old-school running on the A2billing platform, but he's absolutely committed to the business. I signed up and am waiting for a DID currently. I wish him all the best with the service.

Many thanks hwdsl2, that was just what I was looking for. The script is specific to 11.5.1, but I was easily able to take it to the current (11.7.0) with just a few edits and using the existing menuselect patches.

Not to stray too far. Is there a proper upgrade method to update the current AWS build with 11.2.1 to the latest? I've attempted the manual path for vanilla asterisk (wget, tar, ./config, make, make install), which not surprisingly failed miserably.

I've centered on Mikrotik lately and have been very happy. Learning curve for sure and not perfect, but it's feature set is outstanding and offers really fine grain QoS and packet control which has proven to work very well managing voice on a data network. For SMB's I haven't found anything...

Voxbeam is less mainstream, but they have great rates. We've used them as primary outbound trunks for two years now. Outbound rates for on-net rate centers (lower 48): $0.0049 Standard routing $0.0081 Premium routing 6 sec incremental billing for both.

Yes it was, or at least will be for a few more months. Right now my personal number belongs to GV, but it's only used for forwarding (no asterisk integration). If they preserve that feature during the transition to their Hangouts platform (or whatever GV becomes), I probably won't port it out...

Bingo! It was the missing phpagi :crazy:. Thanks lgaetz, and thanks Ward for the detailed examples!

I can't seem to get this working using PIAF with asterisk v1.8.x. I've set up a very simple test to try and pass a variable within the dialplan using a simple test.agi file, viewing the result using NoOP..... Dialplan exten => _X.,n,AGI(/var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin/test.agi) exten =>...
