Litescape revisited

Wednesday, September 28th, 2005

Yet another reason to dislike their products – poor design.

Apparently one of their applications (Call Track Pro – a FAC application), tries to open JTAPI ports in a very illegal and bad way. They had the gaul to blame Cisco for their product failing.

Their support also isn’t that reliable, almost takes an act of God to get them to move.

I also just found out this product isn’t certified on CallManager 3.3 or 4.1, and they also don’t have an active developer agreement with Cisco. Just idiotic IMHO.

Want your own blog space?

I’ve got ample room, and could host a few folk’s blogs if anyone would be interested. Preferably tech-related sites. Just send an email or drop a comment.

The CMM (Communication Media Module)

Monday, September 26th, 2005

It would seem this blade is finally becoming stable. I’m seeing it used more, and am hearing rumors of the 6608 getting discontinued sometime within a year or so.

I’ve always been a fan of this blade given it’s capabilities. I’m glad to see it finally (only took three years) working to the point where’s it a useable device for everything (gateway, conference/transcode and FXS analog).

Bad DSP’s

Saturday, September 17th, 2005

Well found another bad DSP’s point themselvs out. If you ever see a “Resource Unavailable” message in a Q931 debug, it’s a good bet you might have a bad DSP.

type “show voice dsp group all” to check your DSP status. If any aren’t “UP”, or in a state of “FAIL”, you’ve got a bad DSP set. Call TAC and a get a new one.
